Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Daily, where we feel guilty that
Speaker 1: the first pup designation of the year gave me a
Speaker 1: little joel. I'm Greg Rosenthal and be I'm lucky today
Speaker 1: to have a house full of stars, Patrick Clayban, Steve
Speaker 1: Weisch and for the first time, Colleen Wolf.
Speaker 2: I'm back.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I haven't been in the studio for
Speaker 3: like two months. I think it was the end of May,
Speaker 3: so now a little over. I guess, like what a
Speaker 3: month and a half or so, it.
Speaker 1: Was May twenty third. I will remember that. Yep. Hm.
Speaker 3: So I'm back and many things have changed, and it's
Speaker 3: great to see all of your faces in this new chapter.
Speaker 3: But I'm excited to see what NFL Daily is going
Speaker 3: to be.
Speaker 2: I know it's going to be great.
Speaker 3: And Greg, I'm excited to still be working together.
Speaker 2: I think that that's exciting. And White I haven't seen
Speaker 2: you in it feels like forever.
Speaker 1: And Patrick too.
Speaker 4: Patrick, I mean, gosh, this is great. It's it is.
Speaker 4: It's different to not be here all the time.
Speaker 2: Guys, it's unplugging and then plugging back in.
Speaker 1: You're struggling a little bit. Let's be honest. You've spent
Speaker 1: the last, you know, fifteen minutes trying to figure out
Speaker 1: the internet.
Speaker 3: Okay, it's a computer, and as it turns out, when
Speaker 3: you haven't been physically at work for a minute, things
Speaker 3: just you know, aren't working as they normally do.
Speaker 2: So I have no Internet. That's fine. We're just gonna ride.
Speaker 5: It out as long as the key fob works to
Speaker 5: get you in the building.
Speaker 2: I was worried about that. I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: where is my past.
Speaker 1: I don't even know where that is. Yeah it is. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's been a transition, but we are. We are here.
Speaker 1: We're in the Chris Wesleyan podcast studio. Means something to me.
Speaker 1: We had we had Nick Westling on yesterday. I heard
Speaker 1: check that out and yeah, it means a lot to me.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be part of the show. We got you weakly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: moving forward and in the season. I'm excited about what
Speaker 1: you're gonna do then and in the meantime we'll talk football.
Speaker 2: And you have a new jacket.
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 2: I really like this one.
Speaker 1: I just I did, thank you. They all kind of
Speaker 1: look alike but didn't have this color, all this color,
Speaker 1: and I did. Yeah, I did get on Emica just
Speaker 1: like can you help me. I just feel like I
Speaker 1: need It's a new season, we need, we need some things.
Speaker 3: She's got a great eye, Emica, like this is You're
Speaker 3: gonna get a lot of use out of this. It's
Speaker 3: a first little color. I'm excited for you, the show
Speaker 3: and the jacket.
Speaker 1: I am also excited for today's show because we're debuting
Speaker 1: a new segment. Every segment's new at this point. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Judge Connie, I don't know why, but just.
Speaker 5: Oh boy, Patrick, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Colleen just feels like a person that should be in
Speaker 1: charge of courtrooms. What's the truth, what's not?
Speaker 5: And judge judging people.
Speaker 1: Yes, so we're gonna we're gonna argue my natural state.
Speaker 1: We're gonna argue some NFL topics, some opinions, and we'll
Speaker 1: have two different sides and Connie Wild decide who's right,
Speaker 1: who's wrong, and maybe doll out some punishment. We haven't
Speaker 1: really set parameters, but we will find out.
Speaker 6: Okay, but it is not guilty or or guilty you
Speaker 6: know at Wish we're there.
Speaker 1: No, we're not. We're not going anywhere we can.
Speaker 3: This is more of like a civil suit, not like
Speaker 3: I mean, I could be guilty.
Speaker 5: I'll be guilty.
Speaker 1: The only place your comant is right back here pretty
Speaker 1: often throughout the course of the season. But we've got
Speaker 1: some news before we get to that. Thank you to
Speaker 1: Brandon Ay you for giving us a little bit of.
Speaker 2: A fax machine.
Speaker 1: None of it really makes sense. No, that's the internet.
Speaker 1: You oh dial up dialog, right, Brandon ayuk? Wait real quick, yes.
Speaker 2: That exact sound.
Speaker 3: I one time, this is a honestly, this happened. I
Speaker 3: called my parents' house and instead of them picking up
Speaker 3: that noise picked up and I was like, Dad, what
Speaker 3: are you doing at the house. He has all sorts
Speaker 3: of like fax machines and dial ups and things happening there.
Speaker 2: So if that ever happens, you might be calling the wolves.
Speaker 5: Wait what year was it?
Speaker 2: It was like last year.
Speaker 5: I know what that is.
Speaker 1: He plugged the fax machine into his regular phone. The
Speaker 1: fact that he even has a regular phone. But yeah,
Speaker 1: he unplugs the phone, puts the fax machine in there
Speaker 1: that he answers it. That's very it's very old school
Speaker 1: and uh okay, not as old school trade requests.
Speaker 5: But I like him.
Speaker 1: I like when it happens in the NBA. They have
Speaker 1: podcasts around him for months, like that's it floats their
Speaker 1: whole industry and then the trades actually happened. Doesn't always
Speaker 1: happen in the NFL, but Brandon Ayuk did request the trade.
Speaker 1: On Tuesday, NFL Network insider Mike Garafolo I believe he
Speaker 1: had this first.
Speaker 5: Report heah' scoobage.
Speaker 2: Are you on vacation?
Speaker 5: Well, he got this one at him.
Speaker 1: Nice job by Mike g who we hope to have
Speaker 1: on here as well throughout the course of the season.
Speaker 1: We do have an insider later in the WEEKI and
Speaker 1: Rapport joining us. Ayuk's request came after an offseason filled
Speaker 1: with unsuccessful attempts to reach an extension with the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers. Mike reported that they have been unwilling to
Speaker 1: negotiate since May. The forty nine Ers no negotiations here.
Speaker 1: I'll start with you, Steve, how realistic is this for
Speaker 1: Ayuk to actually get dealt.
Speaker 6: I don't think it'll happen. You know, the Niners have
Speaker 6: already come out and said they have no intention of
Speaker 6: doing that. But I remember covering the Falcons and Bobby
Speaker 6: Patrino had no intention of going to coach University of
Speaker 6: Arkansas and he took the job. So if somebody sweetens
Speaker 6: the pod enough, I mean I think they consider it.
Speaker 6: But here's why I don't think it happens is because
Speaker 6: that is brock Perty's guy. I mean, you look at
Speaker 6: their numbers since brock Purty has started. Brandon Ayuk is
Speaker 6: the guy. When you talk to people who cover the Niners.
Speaker 6: Ayuk is the route runner, Deebo's the chess piece, kettle
Speaker 6: is Kittle is the dual.
Speaker 5: Threat, as is Christian McCaffrey.
Speaker 6: But Ayuk is the guy who guys have to really
Speaker 6: cover and set things up. So I don't think it happens.
Speaker 6: But but you know when I look at some of
Speaker 6: the teams too, who could possibly be interested. You know,
Speaker 6: he's gonna want to go to Washington and that's not
Speaker 6: gonna happen. They're not going to trade on.
Speaker 1: When was the last time we heard that about an
Speaker 1: NFL player? It is a new era there, that's want
Speaker 1: to go to Washington.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well that is absolutely a new era. But I
Speaker 6: mean the quarterback there too, at Jaydon Daniels. Of course,
Speaker 6: they played together in Arizona State. But I mean see
Speaker 6: teams like the Steelers, you know, the Colts, the Raiders Denver.
Speaker 6: Look if they trade him, it might be to Siberia.
Speaker 6: And I'm watching the Receiver series. I'm saying, Davante Adam
Speaker 6: the Raiders, like, get me out of here.
Speaker 1: Let's actually listen to Ayuk. This was a sound we
Speaker 1: played on the first show that you were on Weisch
Speaker 1: when we talked with Schook, but I think it's germane
Speaker 1: to the conversation here. This was Ayuk on the Pivot
Speaker 1: podcast talking about where he could possibly go this offseason.
Speaker 1: What uniform he expects to wear.
Speaker 5: If I were to.
Speaker 1: Take a Yays.
Speaker 7: Probably probably a Niner uniform. Probably a Niner uniform, I mean,
Speaker 7: if not a Niners uniform, probably a Washington mannering uniform,
Speaker 7: with not a Washington commander uniform, probably a Steelers uniform.
Speaker 1: From your lips to God's ears, that's Ryan Clark. They're excited.
Speaker 1: It's pretty notable that he just threw those names in there.
Speaker 1: That was not by mistake.
Speaker 4: Well, and I think in that and you can hear
Speaker 4: it is the building frustration where there is this uncertainty
Speaker 4: from the standpoint of he knows that the forty nine
Speaker 4: Ers don't want to make him the deal that he
Speaker 4: would like, and so then it's well, these are the
Speaker 4: teams that might do that, but he's kind of resigned
Speaker 4: and the fact that his control over this is is
Speaker 4: pretty limited, and all you can do at this point
Speaker 4: is officially requested to which like shout out.
Speaker 5: To Mike, shout out to the guys.
Speaker 4: I always wonder like, does it come on Papyrus at
Speaker 4: its pott it's requesting a trade officially doing it, but
Speaker 4: it does take it up to the level of Okay,
Speaker 4: I don't want to be here anymore, right.
Speaker 3: And you mentioned maybe they trade him to Siberia. I mean,
Speaker 3: the Patriots actually be a liable option there. They have
Speaker 3: the money, There would be obviously the opportunities with the
Speaker 3: wide receivers that they have there. Now he could be
Speaker 3: the guy we don't know about Drake may or anything
Speaker 3: like that, but there would be balls going his way.
Speaker 3: And then also you just think about that the Niners,
Speaker 3: they this is their window right now, this is their
Speaker 3: Super Bowl window. Why would they trade him away because
Speaker 3: he would be a pivotal part of them winning that
Speaker 3: Super Bowl. So I don't know what Brandon Ayuk, what
Speaker 3: type of leverage he has in this situation, because holding
Speaker 3: out like that's not going to help him financially.
Speaker 5: No, it's a good fine.
Speaker 3: Exactly, and it just it doesn't really behoove him to
Speaker 3: do so because of where he is just in this
Speaker 3: whole situation, I think, like it's so expensive and they
Speaker 3: can tag him in year six too. So and the
Speaker 3: forty nine ers, like, I guess, yeah, if they get
Speaker 3: an incredible offer, like they're saying that they have no intention,
Speaker 3: which yeah, I mean that there that leaves some wiggle
Speaker 3: room in and of itself, but I just can't see
Speaker 3: them doing that because what is the point for them.
Speaker 1: The draft picks are the same in February as they
Speaker 1: are now, so why would you miss out on that
Speaker 1: year of Brandon Nyuk? There there is no reason, Like
Speaker 1: if the Steelers are serious about it, and there's been
Speaker 1: reporting around this year, is like they're going to add
Speaker 1: someone they watched. I know that red receiver depth chart
Speaker 1: doesn't look good, but they're definitely adding someone's Like where
Speaker 1: are these receivers coming from? And if you and if
Speaker 1: you really mean it, look at what tyreek Hill got
Speaker 1: in terms of a trade. Not only did he get
Speaker 1: to the top of the market, which if you're going
Speaker 1: to trade for Ayu, you got to put him close
Speaker 1: to it. He doesn't need to be Jefferson, but he
Speaker 1: needs to be somewhere right. He has to be close.
Speaker 1: But you also got to give up a first, yep,
Speaker 1: a second, maybe some more if you want to be
Speaker 1: that serious about it. Yeah, maybe you would get the
Speaker 1: forty nine ers to listen. But I even think it
Speaker 1: would have to be such an overpay because of what
Speaker 1: I said about them trying to win the Super Bowl
Speaker 1: this year, and and they can still get those draft
Speaker 1: picks for Brandon Ayuk or more likely Deebo Samuel in February.
Speaker 1: And again there is no draft between now and February.
Speaker 1: They are in this window of trying to win. It's
Speaker 1: kind of like the Bengals with t Higgins, like they
Speaker 1: know they can't keep all these guys together, but they
Speaker 1: have them this year. I did reach out about this
Speaker 1: and astround. I think a Holden is going to be
Speaker 1: his move, which we've seen, or that he's shows done.
Speaker 1: Maybe he doesn't do anything. I think they'd be fine
Speaker 1: with that, Like whatever gets him two week one. Not
Speaker 1: incredibly unhappy.
Speaker 2: There's Nick Bosa was considered a hold in.
Speaker 5: Last right right, Bosa has done this.
Speaker 6: The Niners have gotten several of these contracts done in
Speaker 6: training camp be A Bosa. They got Deebo I think
Speaker 6: the day before camp started. I think Kittle was right
Speaker 6: around there as well. So this is kind of how
Speaker 6: they operate. But I thought what was interesting was that
Speaker 6: Mike said there have been no negotiation since May May.
Speaker 5: I that's whoa.
Speaker 6: I mean, the Niners, you know, historically have not necessarily
Speaker 6: done business like that. They've been on the up and up.
Speaker 1: So maybe they don't like all these podcast appearances whatever,
Speaker 1: because that sounds like getting in your feelings. They should
Speaker 1: be getting this deal done and to have no conversations.
Speaker 1: There was a report, it was from Diana Orsini the
Speaker 1: Athletic that it was in the twenty six to twenty
Speaker 1: seven million dollar range. Who knows that they can fudge
Speaker 1: those numbers too, in terms of how it's presented, whether
Speaker 1: that's new money, whether that's tacked on, we don't know fully. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Josina Anderson reported, Yeah, the Patriots did make an offer
Speaker 1: or reached out a couple weeks ago, and that where
Speaker 1: they were just shut down. I just don't see it
Speaker 1: like it's the number one offense in the league. I
Speaker 1: think they know exactly where their window is and Deebo
Speaker 1: Samuel to me, is a lot more likely to get traded.
Speaker 3: I just love this time of year too, because you
Speaker 3: get all of these stories right before camp and literally
Speaker 3: five days ago there was a story that George Kittle
Speaker 3: was certain, very confident that the Niners would come to
Speaker 3: an extension with Brandon Ayu.
Speaker 5: Kyle Yuschak said it as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kyle Euschek had to take a pay cut. Yes,
Speaker 1: he definitely won't ask Ayu to do that, but he
Speaker 1: is making fourteen million dollars this year, which is very
Speaker 1: underpaid for the level that he is at. The receiver
Speaker 1: market has exploded, something will be watching. But yeah, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't hold your breath for a trade, even though it's disappointing.
Speaker 1: I want to be more like the NBA. But yeah,
Speaker 1: Deebo held out like Gold held out, and they got
Speaker 1: their deals in the end. Let's take a quick break, actually,
Speaker 1: because I'm so excited I want to get to this
Speaker 1: segment and leave as much time as possible to enter
Speaker 1: the courtroom a recess, if you will.
Speaker 8: Everyone is talking about the honorable Colleen wool, the go
Speaker 8: to voice for everything football, Real cases, Real solution, No
Speaker 8: she's Judge Connie all wrong for the Honorable Judge Colleen
Speaker 8: Wolf aka Connie Fox aka the Tiny Box.
Speaker 9: This court with the Honorable Judge Colleen Wolf aka Connie
Speaker 9: Fox aka the Tiny Box, presiding, is now in session.
Speaker 5: Please be seated and come to order.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you, good afternoon, everybody. My name is
Speaker 3: Justice Wolf. It is a pleasure to be here with
Speaker 3: all of you in my courtroom.
Speaker 2: If council could please introduce themselves.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I am Greg Rosenthal. Spent years at two Lane Law.
Speaker 1: Nice to meet you, Judge Patrick Claiban. I attended Troy University.
Speaker 1: I do not have a formal law degree, but I've
Speaker 1: elected to represent myself.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 6: I am Esquire Steve Whitch from the law firm of
Speaker 6: White and formerly Palmer, and I will be stating my
Speaker 6: cases today to prove my client worthy of your proper ruling.
Speaker 2: Okay, counsel, nice to see you all today.
Speaker 3: I expect everyone to respect my courtroom, respect each other,
Speaker 3: and of course, follow the letter of the law in
Speaker 3: these proceedings. All right, So with that, let's get started.
Speaker 3: Mister Rosenthal. Would you like to take the floor here.
Speaker 1: Yes, I will be making an argument that I believe
Speaker 1: is irrefutable today, and that is the argument that the
Speaker 1: Chiefs will not make the Super Bowl this year. Just
Speaker 1: look at history. The last time a team won back
Speaker 1: to back Super Bowls, Tom Brady one of the greatest ever.
Speaker 1: Year after that ten and six plus forty one point
Speaker 1: differential the worst that he would have for the entire
Speaker 1: rest of their career. Cowboys when they were out back
Speaker 1: to back champions next year after that ten and six
Speaker 1: point differential fell, the forty nine Ers came the closest
Speaker 1: way back in the day. They got to the NFC
Speaker 1: Championship Game. They lost it in the fourth quarter to
Speaker 1: a good Giants team. But that's the point it is
Speaker 1: so hard to repeat. It is a single elimination league.
Speaker 1: I don't care how good you are. Just to even
Speaker 1: reach the Super Bowl is an incredible achievement in any
Speaker 1: one given season, and it has made that much harder
Speaker 1: because of human nature. Human nature has not changed in
Speaker 1: the history of humanity, and human nature tells us week
Speaker 1: after week they are the targets. They are the ones
Speaker 1: that everyone is going after, and they aren't having quite
Speaker 1: as much fun as they used to because they've already
Speaker 1: climbed to the top of the mountain and they're feeling
Speaker 1: the pressure. And champion after champion after champion talk about it.
Speaker 1: You know who talked about it last year and didn't
Speaker 1: play their best for most of the last season and
Speaker 1: felt that weight, the Kansas City Chiefs. And it gets
Speaker 1: even bigger when it's year three. The AFC is deep
Speaker 1: as hell. When we talk about the best quarterbacks in
Speaker 1: the league, we talk about Lamar, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen,
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, C. J. Stroud. I could throw in, you know,
Speaker 1: the Steelers are frisky, the Jaguars. Who knows someone is
Speaker 1: gonna pick this team off? And it is because of history,
Speaker 1: is because of human nature. Has nothing to do with
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid. Their greatness is assured, but
Speaker 1: they are not going back to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 6: Okay, uh well, I'm going to count that first off.
Speaker 6: To say that human nature hasn't changed is the history
Speaker 6: of the history of humanity is absolutely insane. Because the
Speaker 6: folks who believe in Adam and Eve believe they wore
Speaker 6: a fig leaf. Now they were Tom Ford, but I'm
Speaker 6: gonna I'm gonna dispute that because last year what they
Speaker 6: had Kancity Chiefs.
Speaker 1: Have to do.
Speaker 6: For the first time at Patrick Mahomes' playoff history, they
Speaker 6: went on the road, right, They went on the road
Speaker 6: and they handled business. What was the first time since
Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes hasn't been there, this has been a defensive team.
Speaker 5: Okay, they walked it all the way through.
Speaker 6: They knocked off a team like the Baltimore Ravens, which
Speaker 6: was winning by an average of seventeen points of games
Speaker 6: that you want to throw analytics at numbers in there,
Speaker 6: and they held them to ten. Right, Yes, there are
Speaker 6: plenty of c J. Strouds on the come up. There's
Speaker 6: a lot of teams on the come up. But as
Speaker 6: we have learned from the wire and from the new
Speaker 6: series that Patrick and I were talking about, super.
Speaker 1: Cell objection, superceell Patrick, nobody knows what it is.
Speaker 6: When you come to thank you, thank you, your honor,
Speaker 6: when you comfort the king, you best not miss. And
Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes makes a miss. And they've got more talent
Speaker 6: on offense than they had last year as well.
Speaker 1: Okay, I know we have time limits here, but if
Speaker 1: I got to just retort yes, just a little yes, Look,
Speaker 1: they had to win on the road. That that's helping
Speaker 1: improve my point, like so many things have to come
Speaker 1: together to get back to that point. Stefan Diggs had
Speaker 1: to drop a deep pass in a game that they
Speaker 1: very well could have lost in Buffalo. So many different
Speaker 1: things have to happen in a single elimination tournament. I
Speaker 1: think that's a good example of why it's going to
Speaker 1: get tougher and tougher and tougher, and at some point
Speaker 1: their luck runs out.
Speaker 4: I find it interesting that my esteem colleague to my
Speaker 4: right says that it's very difficult to repeat in terms
Speaker 4: of history, but then uses the past as evidence for that.
Speaker 4: I don't think the asked this proper evidence for the future.
Speaker 4: When the twenty twenty four Thieves will play in twenty
Speaker 4: twenty four doesn't have anything to do with what a
Speaker 4: Dallas team did in the nineties or what the Patriots
Speaker 4: didn't do in the two thousand. The fact that it's
Speaker 4: going to be difficult to win the Super Bowl doesn't change,
Speaker 4: But to say that the Chiefs won't do it, I
Speaker 4: don't see the improvement in the rest of the AFC
Speaker 4: that can't be applied to the Kansas.
Speaker 1: How many Super Bowls have there?
Speaker 5: J Jaction, your honor.
Speaker 6: He is trying to lead and persuade the jury without
Speaker 6: proper protocol.
Speaker 5: Thank you. I think the Chiefs are a good football team.
Speaker 1: Judge how many super rules we have. We've never had
Speaker 1: a three time champion. Never once happened. There's a reason
Speaker 1: for that, your honor.
Speaker 5: He buried the lead.
Speaker 2: He did, he did.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, thank you counsel for these arguments. I'm going
Speaker 3: to take a quick break to go over the evidence
Speaker 3: here and consider the arguments, and I will return with
Speaker 3: a decision. All right, I'm back. I'd like to thank
Speaker 3: everyone for their patients.
Speaker 1: I'm really glad we didn't talk about this ahead of time.
Speaker 3: These arguments have been meticulously laid out. Greg arguing about
Speaker 3: past precedent. History has made all the time in the league.
Speaker 3: Every week history is made, records are broken. That's why
Speaker 3: we love this game. But I do think that it
Speaker 3: is difficult for the Chiefs to get back to where
Speaker 3: they were these past two years because of the departures
Speaker 3: that they've had. Lugarious sneed. That's going to be a
Speaker 3: big one for Spags and the defense. The defense was
Speaker 3: the unit that ended up holding up this team and
Speaker 3: getting them to the Promised Land. The thin receiver situation
Speaker 3: that always seems to be an issue ever since Tyreek
Speaker 3: Hill left, but never really has been an issue at all.
Speaker 3: And now they've drafted, and who knows what happens with
Speaker 3: Racie Rice, that's all. That's an omnipresent thing that's going
Speaker 3: to be following them all season long. It doesn't I
Speaker 3: don't even take that into account anymore because they've proved
Speaker 3: everyone wrong over and over again. However, I do think
Speaker 3: that they have a lot of competition in the AFC,
Speaker 3: and because it's so difficult to do something like this
Speaker 3: three times in a row, everything has to go right.
Speaker 3: The stars absolutely have to align, with injuries, with schedule,
Speaker 3: with team chemistry, with all of it happening at once,
Speaker 3: and everything going right for them, it just seems more
Speaker 3: likely than not that they will not reach the.
Speaker 2: Super Bowl for a third straight year.
Speaker 3: That is how the court rules in favor of mister Rosen.
Speaker 1: Let's go, thanks waiting, mister Brady for funding this trial
Speaker 1: with dark money. Patrick, No, what's taken away your reck here?
Speaker 6: We have to file on appeal. The burden of proof
Speaker 6: now is more doubtful, more likely than I trust.
Speaker 4: I trust this court, and I say that because it
Speaker 4: has nothing to do with the fact that there's still
Speaker 4: cases to try.
Speaker 9: I trust, next case on the docket, Zach Wilson versus
Speaker 9: the people of Denver.
Speaker 2: All right, order order.
Speaker 3: Thank you everyone for coming back here today in this
Speaker 3: gorgeous court room. It's been outfitted in green colors and
Speaker 3: we love that. But that has nothing to do with
Speaker 3: what we were about to talk about, other than the
Speaker 3: fact that this player did come from a team that
Speaker 3: wore green.
Speaker 6: Yes, your honor, and I would like to start assassins.
Speaker 6: We're talking about colors that he left their feeling blue.
Speaker 6: But things are about to change, yelp. Things are about
Speaker 6: to be more sunny, and I'm going to argue the
Speaker 6: fact that Zach Wilson will emerge as the Denver Broncos
Speaker 6: starter and possibly under Sean Payton, have a geno Smith
Speaker 6: Baker Mayfield tight of resurgence. And I say this because
Speaker 6: one his competition is rookie Bownicks and veteran Jared Stidham.
Speaker 6: And people are saying, oh, okay, Jared Stidam has got
Speaker 6: the edge when it comes to a veteran thing because
Speaker 6: he knows the system. But Jared Stidham has not had
Speaker 6: to endure what Zack Wilson has had to endure. Right,
Speaker 6: He's getting a new fresh start. He's going out to
Speaker 6: the mountain air where he's from. He's from Utah, so
Speaker 6: he's from hearing colleer. He's going out to a fresh air.
Speaker 6: But here is why he is going to end up
Speaker 6: as the starter and have a resurgence under Sean Payton.
Speaker 6: And it doesn't have as much to do as Zach
Speaker 6: Wilson as it does with Sean Payton. First off, the
Speaker 6: first five games at Seattle, at Pittsburgh, at Tampa, at
Speaker 6: the Jets, the Nathaniel Hackett game, and the Raiders. Those
Speaker 6: are five very stout defenses. Do you want to throw
Speaker 6: Bonnicks into that situation? No, But here's the bigger deal.
Speaker 6: Sean Payton has to win. No, not that he's gonna
Speaker 6: lose his job, but soon we're gonna start talking about
Speaker 6: him the way we talked about Bill Belichick.
Speaker 5: Was it Brady or Belichick? Oh?
Speaker 6: Was it Breeze or was it Peyton? Because Sean Payton
Speaker 6: has not one without Drew Brees. And that is why
Speaker 6: he's going to give Zack Wilson the opportunity. Zack Wilson
Speaker 6: who had the best camp according to some observers there
Speaker 6: of all the quarterbacks. You're going to give him the
Speaker 6: opportunity to get through that gauntlet and stake his case
Speaker 6: to be the next Geno Smith and earn a contract
Speaker 6: elsewhere post twenty twenty four, Your honor, I am finished
Speaker 6: with that argument.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's be anouner here. That's a very very strong argument.
Speaker 1: Yeah, your honor, I'd like to good Luck approach the
Speaker 1: court and present some evidence for you. I'd like to
Speaker 1: provide you tape of Zach Wilson's first start in the
Speaker 1: NFL against the Panthers. I would like to present you
Speaker 1: tape of Zach Wilson's second start in the NFL against
Speaker 1: the Patriots. I would like you to continue and present
Speaker 1: every single start that he's had in the entire NFL,
Speaker 1: because at no point in that time has he ever
Speaker 1: looked like a winning quarterback. He hasn't been a winner quarterback.
Speaker 1: And I hear you that Sean Payton's ego might be
Speaker 1: so large that he would want to be the guy
Speaker 1: who fixes Zach Wilson.
Speaker 3: Mister Rosenthal, Yeah, let me step in here. I'm not
Speaker 3: sure the court has this much time to watch all
Speaker 3: of the tape that you are suggesting.
Speaker 1: Okay, because I kind of wanted to throw in the
Speaker 1: Gino Smith Jets tape too, because that was actually pretty good,
Speaker 1: and you know there was a sign there that he
Speaker 1: was going to be good. But if you don't have
Speaker 1: time for that, I just want to present the fact
Speaker 1: that he brought up fresh mountain air as like one
Speaker 1: of the top reasons why Zack Wilson could win this thing.
Speaker 6: Can I read direct your honor? I know, I'm sorry,
Speaker 6: mister Clay on your turn to argument.
Speaker 4: Your argument, well, my argument is very similar to mister Rosenthal's.
Speaker 4: I would also like to present Tim Boyle's opportunities to
Speaker 4: play for the twenty twenty three New York Jets and
Speaker 4: say it's a similar situation. I realized that people feel
Speaker 4: that the island and it's adjacent locales have this sort
Speaker 4: of etherll ability to make things pressure and more hard,
Speaker 4: as if football is somehow different there because people eat pizza,
Speaker 4: I guess with certain water. I don't no nor care.
Speaker 4: I just look at the actual material that's put out
Speaker 4: on the field, and I feel that Trevor Simeon and
Speaker 4: Tim Boyle might have had a case over Zach Wilson
Speaker 4: last year. I don't know that Trevor Simeon and Tim Boyle.
Speaker 4: Maybe Treff could come back to tomorrow high I'm just
Speaker 4: not sold, yes.
Speaker 5: Okay to redirect your honor? Okay, so are you.
Speaker 6: The council was argued that especially Patrick, that Tim Boyle
Speaker 6: and Trevor Simeon could have put better evidence on tape.
Speaker 6: Where's Jenny sit him in? And bo Nix's tape right?
Speaker 6: Where is their tape to argue against Zach Wilson was.
Speaker 1: Jean Payton to draft of twelfth overall.
Speaker 6: Again breaking protocol may object your honor, Okay, thank you.
Speaker 5: I don't know what's stated.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 5: At least it wasn't overruled, so thank you very much.
Speaker 5: I've seen it a TV shows all the time. I
Speaker 5: have no idea.
Speaker 6: I am not arguing that the Denver Broncos are going
Speaker 6: to be a playoff team. I am arguing that Zach
Speaker 6: Wilson and is going to show enough on said tape
Speaker 6: to put himself in position to get through these first
Speaker 6: five games, which is a gauntlet for the Broncos. Help
Speaker 6: Sean Payton be more creative to win ball games or
Speaker 6: at least be competitive in ball games, and for Zack
Speaker 6: Wilson come after the twenty twenty four season, to be
Speaker 6: in a situation where he is better and more desire
Speaker 6: than Jimmy Garoppolo Wow and players of such ilk Wow.
Speaker 1: Okay, before we move on, just for the court, I
Speaker 1: do want to put it on the record that Jared
Speaker 1: Stidham is far more likely to have this little come
Speaker 1: up that Steve Wish is mentioning than any Zach Wilson.
Speaker 1: But it's going to be butter.
Speaker 2: Mix, Council. This has nothing to.
Speaker 1: Do with I mean, if it's Jared Stidham not Zach Wilson,
Speaker 1: look at the money. This is one of the most
Speaker 1: insane arguments I've ever heard.
Speaker 3: Well, the court really is just going to keep this
Speaker 3: simple and quick. We don't need much time to come
Speaker 3: up with a decision here. My mind has already been
Speaker 3: made up. I think that mister Whitch put together a
Speaker 3: fabulous argument, uh the schedule being such a gauntlet with
Speaker 3: those first five games, but more so that Sean Payton
Speaker 3: needs this for his legacy and at this point in
Speaker 3: time he's going to get the absolute best out of
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson.
Speaker 2: If it kills him. And I think, if anything, the.
Speaker 3: Fact that Steve Whitch is arguing that Zach Wilson can
Speaker 3: become the next Geno Smith to Greg Rosenthal right now,
Speaker 3: it's such beautiful poetry that I cannot rule against it.
Speaker 2: So I'm ruling in favor of Steve Whitch.
Speaker 1: This is an outrage, honor.
Speaker 5: Let's ride, Let's ride. Thank your honor. Two great decisions
Speaker 5: judge to day.
Speaker 2: Thank you Patrick Claymon. Are you next, sir?
Speaker 9: I believe so the bab the court will now hear
Speaker 9: the case of rookie QBS versus the bench representing the
Speaker 9: Playtiffitzpatrick Claybong and representing the defendant.
Speaker 5: Is the bench.
Speaker 2: Got it?
Speaker 4: And a shout out to the bench. I appreciate all
Speaker 4: the support over the years. I would like to say
Speaker 4: that there has been a lot of conversation about JJ
Speaker 4: McCarthy and what he should do, and a lot of
Speaker 4: that hearkens to the other quarterback on the roster in
Speaker 4: Sam Darnoald, who was the youngest quarterback to start in
Speaker 4: the NFL by a few months in a very long time.
Speaker 4: If JJ McCarthy starts, he'll be the youngest since Sam
Speaker 4: Darnald and people say that he shouldn't because it will
Speaker 4: ruin him, because it will make him bad, and then
Speaker 4: he'll be sad and he won't be good at football anymore.
Speaker 4: And they'll play to any number of quarterbacks, including one
Speaker 4: that we just discussed in Zach Wilson, and say well,
Speaker 4: if you come out and you have a bad performance,
Speaker 4: then you ultimately will lose confidence and you won't be good.
Speaker 4: I am making the case that if somebody is not
Speaker 4: good at football, it is not because they played football.
Speaker 4: I would like to say that to play football and
Speaker 4: play football well, playing for the ball is.
Speaker 5: A part of that.
Speaker 4: And you would have robbed so many great quarterback seasons.
Speaker 4: We would have sat there and known nothing about c J.
Speaker 4: Stroud and the Texans would have been an absolute complete mystery.
Speaker 4: We would have missed out on one of Greg's Super Bowls.
Speaker 4: We would have missed out on so many wow spectacular
Speaker 4: seasons because oh, we can't play the rookie because they're
Speaker 4: mentally weak. Stop projecting your own insecurity and inability to
Speaker 4: handle failure on to professional athletes. I think good football
Speaker 4: players are good at football.
Speaker 5: That is my case.
Speaker 2: That's amazing. Okay, the court would like to hear the
Speaker 2: counter argument.
Speaker 1: I gotta admit, your honor, you're looking great today by
Speaker 1: the way, that i'd throw that out. I've been a
Speaker 1: council's appropriate lawyer for years. Just stating the facts. Was
Speaker 1: part of the mock law crew at Minichak Regional High
Speaker 1: School in nineteen ninety six ninety seven, President of Model Congress.
Speaker 1: That was a little different. I've never heard such a
Speaker 1: convincing argument here. I have a hard time being on
Speaker 1: the side of the Sam Darnald hive and just human
Speaker 1: nature and the projecting. He got me there again, I
Speaker 1: agree with him. So I'm with Patrick claibon.
Speaker 2: Are there any counter arguments here? Why are we in court?
Speaker 6: I will make a counter argument, even though that was
Speaker 6: a freaking great argument. If we're going to enter evidence
Speaker 6: on human nature again, Your Honor, I really hope next
Speaker 6: time you take counsel into chambers and tell him to
Speaker 6: expand his vocabulary. The human nature argument is a little played.
Speaker 6: It is, but again, well done, Thank you, counsel.
Speaker 5: I will say this in.
Speaker 6: Defense of Sam Darnold, possibly giving it nothing against J. J. McCarthy,
Speaker 6: but the one thing he's head coach Kevin O'Connell show
Speaker 6: during the Josh Dobbs era, during the Jaron Hall era
Speaker 6: of last season. Is he can get guys ready, right.
Speaker 6: This is a talented quarterback who he knows something about
Speaker 6: from his coaching colleague Kyle Shanahan last year. Very talented
Speaker 6: player coming in with a good offensive line, things that
Speaker 6: JJ McCarthy would have, the best wide receiver in the game,
Speaker 6: player that JJ McCarthy would have. But then there is experience.
Speaker 6: That is the only thing Sam Darnold is really wielding
Speaker 6: right here is the experience and a head coach who
Speaker 6: can get him ready. Other than that, I will rest.
Speaker 1: I believe that rookies should play when they're ready. We
Speaker 1: don't know if JJ McCarthy is ready, so he has
Speaker 1: to go out there and prove it. He was good
Speaker 1: in college, who solid that he hasn't seen the pass
Speaker 1: rush coming out him. If Drake may is ready to play,
Speaker 1: he should play. But there are circumstances where they're just
Speaker 1: not good enough soon enough, and maybe that will be
Speaker 1: the case.
Speaker 5: That human nature, that's human nature, it is.
Speaker 3: Would you how could you know when a rookie is
Speaker 3: ready to play if they've never played?
Speaker 2: How would a rookie know this information.
Speaker 1: Could because I've been in football my whole life. I'm
Speaker 1: a coach. I'm watching them each and every day, and
Speaker 1: then they play in the reseason with the live pass
Speaker 1: rush coming at him. You put them in as many
Speaker 1: circumstances and the joint practices as you can, and you
Speaker 1: make an evaluation.
Speaker 5: That's what you do.
Speaker 6: It also depends on your ownership. Okay, and ownership says
Speaker 6: play the guy playing right.
Speaker 4: And as much as I appreciate how Counsel has put
Speaker 4: forth that argument, if the coach is telling me right
Speaker 4: that somebody is not ready, then they need to be
Speaker 4: telling me that they're not good. If you're talking about
Speaker 4: mental your job is to coach football. Your job is
Speaker 4: x's and o's and gaps and responsibilities and all that
Speaker 4: you were.
Speaker 5: You are not a shrink. This is not your This
Speaker 5: is not your capacity.
Speaker 4: If they are good enough at football, if JJ McCarthy
Speaker 4: is in practice showing he has the ability that Sam
Speaker 4: Darnold doesn't, then he should absolutely play and we shouldn't
Speaker 4: try to protect him from failure. It's football. It's sports.
Speaker 4: Like you're gonna miss shots. But but how do you responds?
Speaker 5: We got a quick sidebar to that.
Speaker 6: Yes, And I think this goes into the whole essence
Speaker 6: of the quarterback whisper. There's a whole lot of quarterback
Speaker 6: mumblers out there too, or hiding behind that, because if
Speaker 6: it is their job to develop quarterbacks, and we've seen
Speaker 6: some who are supposed to have that who have not
Speaker 6: made it happen. Kevin O'Connell is some one of those guys.
Speaker 6: He's a quarterback whisper.
Speaker 5: He is.
Speaker 2: Clearly, We've seen it with the Adam Gases of the world.
Speaker 2: We've seen it. It's a tale as old as time. Yes,
Speaker 2: So the court has made.
Speaker 3: A decision here. Again, this feels very clear cut. So
Speaker 3: I don't want to waste anyone's time, but especially my own.
Speaker 3: The court is ruling in favor of counsel Claybonno. Well
Speaker 3: done because the sheer argument of stop projecting your own
Speaker 3: insecurities onto athletes was so beautifully done, and it just
Speaker 3: it was a gorgeous way to put it, because that's
Speaker 3: what we see so much. And these coaches they cannot
Speaker 3: change the mental makeup of these players. They can try,
Speaker 3: they can, and they can do everything in their power
Speaker 3: to set them up for success, but they cannot change
Speaker 3: their actual abilities, and that is I think something that
Speaker 3: is very important to take into consideration here. So JJ
Speaker 3: McCarthy will be set up well as you outlined, mister whitch,
Speaker 3: but I am ruling in favor of mister Claybonn here.
Speaker 3: Thank you, and Greg, mister Rosenthal kind of helped out
Speaker 3: in that decision by deferring to you immediately and crumbling
Speaker 3: with no counter argument.
Speaker 1: So yeah, as you guys know, I've had a lot
Speaker 1: of legal troubles in my life despite my career as
Speaker 1: a lawyer, and I'm hiring Patrick makes sense.
Speaker 2: Strange development.
Speaker 6: Well, delete an argument versus the bench is absolutely a key.
Speaker 6: That was the hook I was done right there?
Speaker 2: Has anyone has a sidebar been in court anytime? Like recently?
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I won a case I had charges dropped
Speaker 5: last year? What yeah?
Speaker 1: Really it was great.
Speaker 4: It was a red light camera. I stopped at the
Speaker 4: red light and they came in. They came and talked
Speaker 4: to everybody.
Speaker 1: Wasn't that one in Culver City near work?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 1: This is because I got this was this was over
Speaker 1: on vegetable word.
Speaker 4: Either way, But yeah, they came in, They're like, hey,
Speaker 4: everybody here for red light. Your cases were all dismissed.
Speaker 4: No way, and so every including the people that blew
Speaker 4: through the red light. I was the only person that
Speaker 4: actually didn't run it. So everybody got their cases dismissed. Wow,
Speaker 4: I love it.
Speaker 2: They're fighting the good fight.
Speaker 5: Well and if we count today, yeah, exactly. I was
Speaker 5: on a jury we awarded. We awarded somebody a whole
Speaker 5: lot of money, really a whole lot of money.
Speaker 3: I had jury duty over July fourth, and that was
Speaker 3: basically just me calling to see if I needed to
Speaker 3: come in and then saying no all week long, and
Speaker 3: then I completed my jury duty.
Speaker 5: That is the dream.
Speaker 1: I was supposed to be in jury duty right now,
Speaker 1: but really we're trying to lunch to show here and
Speaker 1: I put it off till November. We'll see if that's
Speaker 1: any better. But Steve, I know you need to leave
Speaker 1: this car room right now. We've totally broken broken the
Speaker 1: fourth one. This is now a running back to NML
Speaker 1: Insiders in a big time interview with a Hall of
Speaker 1: Famer that you can check out. It's gonna be Dwight
Speaker 1: Freenie and Steve. Thank you, Steve, Steve, You're the best.
Speaker 2: Everybody wants to be working with Steve right now.
Speaker 1: We are going to take a quick break and come
Speaker 1: back with a little more. A little news happened while
Speaker 1: we were really Colleen Wolf has just broken a tackle,
Speaker 1: spun out of the audi of a safety. She's in
Speaker 1: the open field. That's it. The raiders aren't going to
Speaker 1: catch her. We're back on NFL Daily. That was fun.
Speaker 1: I want to do that again.
Speaker 2: Yep, it's coming back.
Speaker 1: I have ideas, I've I had some arguments that were
Speaker 1: really going to blow people's mind. But we're going to
Speaker 1: wrap up the show with a little bit of news
Speaker 1: that happened while we were in the courtroom. Caleb Williams,
Speaker 1: the number one overall pick of the Chicago Bears, officially
Speaker 1: signed his rookie contract. This was like a thing because
Speaker 1: people notice that the rookies are reporting this week. It
Speaker 1: was just about to happen. He might have missed the
Speaker 1: day of the rookies reporting. I don't care about the
Speaker 1: rookies signing. It never matters. Roma Dunza also signed. There
Speaker 1: was a little bit more of drama to this because
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams does not have an agent. He had, you know,
Speaker 1: a lawyer working on it for him. But nothing is
Speaker 1: getting in the way of Caleb Williams being on that
Speaker 1: first episode of Hard Knocks carrying his bag in for
Speaker 1: the rookies reporting frankly, I'm excited.
Speaker 3: No agent to take a cut of this fully guaranteed deal.
Speaker 3: Pretty amazing for him, yes, and then also for the Bears.
Speaker 3: Now they'll have essentially three years with him on a
Speaker 3: rookie deal to evaluate if he I mean, if he
Speaker 3: ends up being what everyone thinks that he can be,
Speaker 3: they can build around him on that rookie deal and
Speaker 3: bring in pay other players.
Speaker 5: And I love that we've come.
Speaker 4: A long way in the conversation about players and their
Speaker 4: representation because I feel like a few years ago it
Speaker 4: was like, well.
Speaker 2: You know, Lamar doesn't have a Lmar was like the
Speaker 2: first big name do that, and it's like, Oh, what's.
Speaker 5: Going to happen, Like teams, how are they going to
Speaker 5: contact him on the phone?
Speaker 1: And oh my god.
Speaker 4: Two MVPs later, now Caleb Williams goes one overall, and
Speaker 4: it's it's kind of an afterthought, like I didn't even
Speaker 4: know because of Caleb had said, well, somebody else is
Speaker 4: you know, is handling he.
Speaker 1: Said, his lawyers and his attorney where technically the NFLPA
Speaker 1: says he does not have an agent, he's representing himself.
Speaker 1: But obviously as someone helping you with the PaperWorks, he
Speaker 1: got to give a little fee there. Connie, Sure you.
Speaker 4: Don't have to give up no, nine percent, ye three
Speaker 4: to five percent in perpetuity in a game that you
Speaker 4: don't get to play forever.
Speaker 1: You know so, and it's locked in anyways, who knows
Speaker 1: if he'll get one for next time. But that's a
Speaker 1: great point you make, Colleen about the three years. It's
Speaker 1: one of the reasons why teams want to have first
Speaker 1: round quarterbacks because it's not just a four year contract.
Speaker 1: It's really a five year contract with that fifth year
Speaker 1: option if you're a first round pick. And so you
Speaker 1: can give Caleb Williams life changing money, not that this
Speaker 1: isn't life changing money, but even more life changing money
Speaker 1: next time around after just three years, and save a
Speaker 1: little bit on the back end, like like they do
Speaker 1: when you do a contract like two years early. And
Speaker 1: so that'll be the plan. I have no doubts about
Speaker 1: this kid.
Speaker 3: I'm always like, I'm always waiting at the end of
Speaker 3: the first round to see what teams are going to
Speaker 3: trade in to take a quarterback just to be in
Speaker 3: that situation.
Speaker 4: Those extra a little bit of control. Yeah, and it
Speaker 4: also gives you leeways as the decision maker, where a
Speaker 4: lot of these gms and people in the front office
Speaker 4: their job is to keep their job.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Those teams that are like positioned even at like the
Speaker 3: top of the second, like, that's just it's so good
Speaker 3: for them.
Speaker 2: They're in such a great position every year at the draft.
Speaker 1: So I am really looking forward on a show later
Speaker 1: this week. I'm gonna draft quarterbacks just for this season,
Speaker 1: only with the Daniel Jeremiah. So I'm curious if I'm
Speaker 1: the one who ends up with Kayleb Williams or if
Speaker 1: he's the one that ends up with Kayleb Williams, because
Speaker 1: I gotta say he's fairly high on my board after
Speaker 1: seeing what Stroud and Herbert and some of these rookies do.
Speaker 1: It's like rookies can be great quarterbacks too. And there
Speaker 1: is just nothing I have seen out of this kid
Speaker 1: that would lead me to believe he is not gonna
Speaker 1: come out of the gates swinging and be like an
Speaker 1: at least an above average starter. It's just about twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four. We're gonna draft out for one just this season,
Speaker 1: but even just this season, wouldn't you take them over
Speaker 1: let's get frisky, Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 5: I would.
Speaker 1: I mean, now that I know the tuatung of I
Speaker 1: loo like a team independent.
Speaker 4: I wouldn't take him over to it, now that I
Speaker 4: know that Zach Wilson is going to revolutionize things.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, Jared Goff, I'm I'm just saying it's a
Speaker 1: fun exercise. I like, I still would take them because
Speaker 1: I know it's a rookie, so it's a huge risk
Speaker 1: and I wouldn't put made quite that high that he's kill.
Speaker 5: Williams is different, all right, all.
Speaker 1: Right, our after dinner Mint today, Colleen, we've just kind
Speaker 1: of been wrapping up the show with something that just
Speaker 1: gives it leaves a nice taste in the met and uh.
Speaker 1: We had mentioned to the listeners we have an email
Speaker 1: address out there. It's a NFL Daily podcast at gmail
Speaker 1: dot com.
Speaker 2: Everyone lock it in your phones right now.
Speaker 3: Which, by the way, I just want to say too
Speaker 3: real quick that I got so many messages, tweets, direct
Speaker 3: messages on Instagram, on x all over the place from
Speaker 3: listeners from atn and it was really overwhelming because all
Speaker 3: of the messages were so nice, and I got to
Speaker 3: a point where I was like in such an emotional
Speaker 3: place that I couldn't even read them all.
Speaker 2: But I just want to.
Speaker 3: Say that how much I appreciate all every single person
Speaker 3: who sent me a message and said something so nice
Speaker 3: and thoughtful.
Speaker 2: And if I didn't read it yet, I will eventually
Speaker 2: read it.
Speaker 3: But it's just like it's hard for me to do
Speaker 3: it because it's sad, and I don't like sad things.
Speaker 3: But I don't want you to think that I'm ignoring
Speaker 3: you or don't have time or the care to respond.
Speaker 2: To you, because it's the exact opposite.
Speaker 1: I have big.
Speaker 3: Feelings, like my dog has big feelings, and whenever I
Speaker 3: come home, Dasher has to grab a toy to put
Speaker 3: in his mouth to parade around because like he has
Speaker 3: such big feelings, and I am basically Dasher. So I
Speaker 3: just want to say how much I appreciate the listeners
Speaker 3: because they've always been the absolute nicest and sweetest and
Speaker 3: most respectful out of any show I've ever done.
Speaker 1: So thank you man, double everything, colling Man. It is
Speaker 1: good to have Colleen Beck. I'm back studio. We've been
Speaker 1: through a lot. It's been a it's been an off season,
Speaker 1: and it's it's been a lot. But everything Colleen said
Speaker 1: I echo too, and I get it, like from the
Speaker 1: listener's perspective that it's a lot, it's a lot. It's
Speaker 1: it's a lot for us to believe me. And everything
Speaker 1: you said is I lived. I live that too, and
Speaker 1: I now is not the time for me to see everything.
Speaker 1: Although I see the nice stuff, and we have seen
Speaker 1: a lot of really nice emails. Let's let's throw up
Speaker 1: actually the tweet first, Randy if you can. This was
Speaker 1: from Tom Tom Marshall, I recognize longtime listen. He said,
Speaker 1: with you around the NFL podcast to tattooed on my
Speaker 1: ear drums. I've tried hard not to like the NFL
Speaker 1: Daily Podcast, but my ears don't lie. I really like it.
Speaker 1: Good luck, Greg, and you know, got got a lot
Speaker 1: of messages kind of like that where it's it's mixed feelings.
Speaker 1: Let's go to another email. This one is from Sid
Speaker 1: This is more just like factual question. Do you have
Speaker 1: any plans for Fantasy football related content on the new pod?
Speaker 1: Nothing crazy like a whole episode. I do think a
Speaker 1: segment here or there, wouldn't be a bad idea. Wishing
Speaker 1: you all well, excited to see where it goes from here.
Speaker 1: I mean, why not in a whole episode that Yeah,
Speaker 1: why dismiss it. But I'm glad you mentioned that we
Speaker 1: are going to do some fantasy, throw some segments in
Speaker 1: maybe a little more regularly. Next week We're definitely going
Speaker 1: to have a fantasy segment. Heck, maybe the whole show.
Speaker 2: Look, I don't know, the sky is the limit. We
Speaker 2: can do whatever we want.
Speaker 5: Ceilings the roof.
Speaker 1: All right, last email, we'll go from rain Air and
Speaker 1: he says he's a longtime atn and JRVP listener. Wow,
Speaker 1: shout out to the Justin Lickinrosendal Vanity Project a lifer.
Speaker 6: I like it.
Speaker 1: We'll be back to by the way in October. That
Speaker 1: Anthony right now is in Asia. Never emailed before to
Speaker 1: any podcast. Wanted to reach out and say love in
Speaker 1: the new show. And we'll be a daily listener and
Speaker 1: downloader on Spotify. And loves the release schedule. We've heard
Speaker 1: a lot about that, trying to keep it consistent, keep
Speaker 1: it daily. Also interested in an informative show that'll give
Speaker 1: me the news, make me a little smarter, love the
Speaker 1: music as well. Although I wish with you, Colleen, I
Speaker 1: think we can do two weeks. We can do.
Speaker 2: Yes, I have a lot enough.
Speaker 4: Rayner occasionally like creeps through a crowded like warehouse of
Speaker 4: bad guys with a crossbow, because that's what one of
Speaker 4: the one of the tracks sounds like.
Speaker 2: You're not wrong, You're not wrong.
Speaker 1: And why I needed you here, Colleen. I need you here,
Speaker 1: and now you're here.
Speaker 2: I We're going to have to fix some of this music.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 3: And if any of the listeners have anything that they
Speaker 3: would like to submit, I will just throw that out there,
Speaker 3: because you know, I think that there's some.
Speaker 2: Really creative people that listen to the show. We've heard
Speaker 2: it in the past, some of those examples.
Speaker 3: So also for those of you who are saying that
Speaker 3: you know you've been so used to atn and you
Speaker 3: like are our first listener who was it wasn't Tom
Speaker 3: who said that he didn't want to like NFL daily
Speaker 3: wanted to hate it. Uh, he wanted to hate it.
Speaker 3: I just want to let you know the like look flowers,
