Speaker 1: summer is upon us. So let's chill, let's hang out,

23
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: let's enjoy life. Okay, let's start with Jake. I love

24
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: the show. As a former hooper, I've I always followed

25
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: the NBA and valued actual proven players superstars way more

26
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: than draft picks. Can you explain why this isn't really

27
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: the case in the NFL? Is it the short career

28
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: horizons or the contracts follow up? How comes so many

29
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: average normal franchises can become championship contenders in the NFL.

30
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: I read that half the playoff teams rotate every year

31
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: so much parody. It seems if you have two to

32
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: three great drafts and a service or quarterback, you're good

33
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: to go. Well, I think the number one thing with

34
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: the draft picks is the cost control and the second

35
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: and third rounds. Like in the n b A. You know,

36
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: once you get out of the top ten, the draft

37
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: is a complete crapshoot. The chances when you're picking twelve

38
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a better player when the guy is drafting,

39
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: I mean it happens all the time, right the top

40
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,679
Speaker 1: really you could argue the top five six picks are

41
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: are gold in the NBA because that's where you find

42
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: historically really good players. James Harden, Steph Curry. You know,

43
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: obviously all the top picks, Lebron, James, Anthony Davis. You

44
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: go around. Dame Lillard was a high pick. Uh, Jayson

45
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: Tatum was a high pick. Brown was a high pick.

46
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: Just you know, you honest, somewhat of Kevin Durant was

47
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: a high pick. Most of the top players in the league,

48
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: the majority of them now there are outliers. Yokich Luca

49
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: was a top pick. Chris Paul was a top pick.

50
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: You just go around the league. In football, think about

51
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: some of the best players in the NFL right now,

52
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: right at different positions. Think of the star wide receivers.

53
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson went picked twenty two and he got traded

54
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: basically straight up for Dicks A. J. Brown, huge contract,

55
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel, huge contract. So there are a ton of

56
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: players and I just see it like, I'll just use

57
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: the forty example because they're top of my head. Some

58
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: of their best players, George Kittle, Fred Warner, Deebo Samuel.

59
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: We're not first round picks and I think we go

60
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: around the NFL and find that on all the different teams. Now,

61
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: obviously a lot of players Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, you know,

62
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, guys were first round picks. Tom Brady, we

63
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: all know his story. But when I hit on a second, third,

64
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: fourth round pick, I have the guy for three years

65
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: making eight hundred thousand dollars, nine thousand dollars whatever the contract.

66
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 1: That the exact number. But you know what I'm saying,

67
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: So I I really think it's the money and the

68
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: likelihood of getting really good players, the likelihood of getting

69
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: star players Alvin Kamara in the third round, Derrick Henry

70
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: in the second round. We could do it on every team,

71
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson in the third round. It's just the way

72
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: you build your squad, you know. And yeah, I mean

73
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: I think the likelihood of getting good players after the

74
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: first round is the reason they don't do it. Plus,

75
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: when I trade for a veteran player, it's one thing

76
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 1: if I trade for a young veteran player, guy in

77
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: his twenties, but like if I trade for a thirty

78
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 1: year old, you know, like ultimately, the Chargers trading a

79
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: second round pick for Cleil Mac is risky because we've

80
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 1: seen them get legit player year after year in the

81
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: second round. Now, if he's still awesome, no problem. But

82
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: if he's not, let's just say and listen. I'm a

83
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: huge Cleil Mac fan. I think he's gonna be a stud.

84
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: But I'm just using this an example. Let's say he shot,

85
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: he's never been. He will never be the same. Again,

86
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: that's a disastrous trade. It really is, big fan of

87
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: the pot. Now, just because you trade a veteran player

88
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: for draft picks on the flip side, doesn't mean we

89
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: saw Gruden and Mayok do it. And they missed right

90
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: obviously on when they traded for Amari Cooper and Cleil Mac.

91
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: Disastrous trade. Disastrous big fan of the pod. Just wanted

92
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 1: to know your thoughts on Sirianni stepping down from calling

93
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 1: the offensive plays. He said that it was that it

94
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: happened prior to us started winning games last season, but

95
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: it's something to worry about when your head coach is

96
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: just a people guy not calling plays. I had one

97
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: in my d m S last week, forward me same

98
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: question basically like what are your thoughts on this? I'm like,

99
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Nick? Sirianni is their play collar.

100
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,799
Speaker 1: And then he forwarded me this clip. I guess last

101
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: week either he said it or I'll be honest, didn't

102
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: watch it, but or the or the the guy that

103
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: actually called the place said it the middle of the

104
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: season when they were kind of struggling. They flip flopped,

105
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: which I would say, is that ideal? If it's true. Again,

106
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: I haven't verified, but now multiple people have sent me this.

107
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 1: I guess he would have been said last week and

108
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: their veteran mini or their mandatory minicamp. If Nick Sirianni

109
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: is no longer the play caller, that's that's somewhat of

110
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: a problem, right because ultimately these young coaches, young offensive coaches,

111
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: Kyle McVeigh, Lafleur, Hell, you just Arthur Smith. You just

112
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 1: start going around the league like I want them to

113
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: call place, Cliff Kingsbury call my place. That's what I'm

114
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: hiring you for. Obviously, you've got to be the leader.

115
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: You're the head coach. But I want you scheming on

116
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: a weekly basis on Sunday t Why Sean Payton, Andy Reid,

117
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: you are so valuable because they're white callers. I don't

118
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: know if true again, I haven't seen it with my

119
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: own eyes, but enough you guys have sent it. I

120
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: got probably a little lazy, could have clicked on it

121
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: when when one of the guys earlier sent it to me,

122
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: but I would I would say it's something to monitor

123
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: for sure. Uh. Speaking of which, what are some of

124
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: the lesser known forty nine players to keep an eye

125
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 1: out in the coming months and into the season. I

126
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: would say Juwan Jennings, their number three wide receiver who

127
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: they drafted in the seventh round a couple of years

128
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: ago from Tennessee, who had Uh. I guess it would

129
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: be considered the game winning touchdown against the Rams? Was

130
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: that an overtime I can't even remember now. He was

131
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: awesome down the stretch for him. He looks fantastic at

132
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: O t a s now. I don't know how. It's

133
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: not like he's gonna be an eight guy because they

134
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: got Debo and I you can kindle, but I could

135
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: see him being a forty catch guy with five six touchdowns.

136
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: He's big, He's really big. Uh. And their first round

137
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: pick Drake or second round picked Drake Jackson, pass rusher

138
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: from USC. He gonna play and he's gonna be pretty

139
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: good because their defensive line always kicks ass and this

140
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: kid can bend. He's explosive. Uh, he's gonna be an

141
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: impact guy. I love the podcast while live players receive

142
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: hate and judgment, isn't an immediately hypocritical that athletes and

143
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: reporters would judge someone for playing in the Lift series?

144
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: All we're supporting their Nike kicks or recording with their

145
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: iPhone both. In more companies who have been accused of

146
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: media of human rights violations, Obviously, the acquisation the act,

147
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:53,319
Speaker 1: the accusations are not nearly as egregious as the Siety government. Nonetheless,

148
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: violations are violations. I think they need to take a

149
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 1: look in the mirror. I like your takes and your

150
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 1: stuff because you're definitely realistic and uh, well, here's the thing.

151
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty simple. The Golf Channel, which is

152
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 1: owned by NBC, if you google them, they they've had

153
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: some things happen under their their umbrella that are pretty ugly.

154
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: So the guys at the Golf Channel are by far

155
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: the most outspoken. So when they get on the moral

156
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 1: high horse, they're taking checks from a company that has

157
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: done shady ship sexual assault, paid women to be quiet

158
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: like that's a fact, that's not an opinion. But I'm

159
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: not putting that on the guys that are complaining. They

160
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: had nothing to do with that, but that's where they

161
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: receive their money. They choose to stay there. The reason, though,

162
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: if you just want to be honest, why they're so angry.

163
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: Obviously we all agree the Saddis do shady ship. If

164
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna get in business with them, good luck. Now,

165
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: from a financial standpoint, they have probably the most money, right,

166
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: they just have an unlimited amount of money and they've

167
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: never made more of these last couple of years. Financially,

168
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: they just they will never run out. It's it's crazy.

169
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 1: But when those guys in the Golf channel pound the table,

170
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: they do so much. The Golf Channel covers the PGA Tour,

171
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 1: and they spend a ton of time talking about all

172
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 1: their events minus the majors. They cover the majors too,

173
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 1: but the regular events is a huge part of their business. Well,

174
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 1: if these guys keep defecting, what does it do? It

175
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: impacts their business, it hurts their product, and ultimately it

176
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: hurts their earning potential. I think the quicker you come

177
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: to grips with everyone is inherently a little selfish. We

178
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 1: all think about our own needs first. So you can

179
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: be outraged, offended, whatever by anything. But I think a

180
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: lot of times it's human nature to think, how does

181
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: this impact me, especially especially under the professional umbrella, And

182
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: this impacts those guys professionally, it does not bother me.

183
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: Now would I do it? You know, it's easy to

184
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,839
Speaker 1: say no, I wouldn't do it. And then they offer you, Hey,

185
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: middle golf, here's up eighty million dollars. You on a

186
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: podcast about live. I'd be like, see a Colin see Aberman?

187
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 1: I mean, what are we talking about these guys? Have

188
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: we seen the numbers? It would be one thing. It's like,

189
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: you know Phil was worth eight hund million and they

190
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: gave him twenty million. You'd be like, that's a little weird.

191
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: They gave him a hundred and fifty to two hundred

192
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: million dollars. It's like, why did DJ go he's super rich?

193
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: They gave him a hundred and twenty five million dollars.

194
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: I mean, what are we talking about? Myles Garrett last

195
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: year got a hundred guaranteed. Dustin Johnson just got more

196
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: to play golf. It's way harder to play defensive end

197
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: now I'm not saying that it's not hard to be

198
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 1: as good as DJ, but we're talking astronomical amounts of money.

199
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: Here's the one thing I will say about the golfers,

200
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: because the NBA guys took a lot of ship where

201
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: they put themselves out in the fire as they lectured

202
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: us politically, the golfers never do. Tiger Woods has never

203
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: said a word ever politically and he won't. It's just

204
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: it's just not really the their style. Because also they

205
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: know they vote on the side of the Ledger that

206
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: if they did openly talk, they would get crushed on

207
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: social media. But I got news for you. The PGA

208
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: Tour doesn't vote left, but they keep their mouth shut

209
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: and most of them just take the money. And some

210
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: of them rories and jts have been supportive, but when

211
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: it comes to the Golf Channel, guys crushing them like

212
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: I don't think it's hypocritical because again, they had nothing

213
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: to do with the stuff that happened at NBC over

214
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: the years, but they are taking that money and ultimately

215
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: they're coming from a place of if I covered the

216
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: NFL and there was a league that was gonna hurt

217
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 1: the NFL, and I wouldn't want guys to leave, right,

218
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: It's just it's just we're all it's basic business that

219
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: they want to protect their product. And Greg Norman, who

220
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: might be a little shady, you know, not well liked,

221
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: is uh is ruffle in their feathers. Hey, I love

222
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: the show. If the PGA tour loses, make King where

223
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: players can play for other organizations, how do you think

224
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: this would affect the UFC. UFC is a similar model

225
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 1: where fights are fighters are independent workers but cannot fight

226
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: for the organization and come back to the U S UFC.

227
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: The difference though, is the UFC is the same setup, right,

228
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: there are way less elite fighters and famous fighters. And

229
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: one thing, I I'm a big Dana white guy. I

230
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 1: don't pretend to know. I know a lot of people

231
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: have pushed back how much he pays his fighters. I

232
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: think what they've built is incredible. And I'm not a

233
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: huge fight guy like I I like the concept of it.

234
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: I just didn't never really get into the UFC. Besides,

235
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: like a huge, huge fight is if there was another

236
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: league and they had a ton of stars, you know, ultimately,

237
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: golf just has ten twenty guys that, like you can't

238
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: afford to lose how many guys does or girls does

239
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: UFC have they can't afford to lose a couple. I

240
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: think the model is a little different, just on the quantity,

241
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: because ultimately, I think Dana would say, we create these people.

242
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: You didn't know who Connor was. Before we created Connor,

243
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 1: you didn't know who Aldough was. And I might be

244
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: screwing this up. I'm not some die hard fight guy,

245
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: but I think that's fair to say so. I think

246
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: it would be more difficult. But yeah, if another league

247
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: wanted to pay them five x what the UFC is

248
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: paying them, they would leave question for the mail bag.

249
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: Why are the Packers gonna be so much worse without

250
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: Davante Adams? But the Chiefs won't fall out without Tyreek Hill?

251
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: Well they still have Travis Kelsey. I would say that's

252
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: a big deal. And the other thing is like I've

253
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: seen Andy Reid work with a million people for two

254
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: and a half decades. I've never seen La Flour have

255
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: to pivot like this now. I don't think they're gonna

256
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: be that much worse. Where Where have I said that

257
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna suck? I still am going to pick them

258
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 1: to win the Division. Now, are they gonna wintourteen games?

259
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna pick that, but could they win eleven? Yeah?

260
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: They got the best player in the league. His name

261
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: is Aaron Rodgers. Both these two teams, Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes.

262
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: How am I not gonna pick them both to win

263
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: double digits? The Packers have an unreal run game. I

264
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: think Packers be fine, you know, I now, fine, We'll

265
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: think of what they've done. They haven't one playoff games

266
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: really the last couple of years. They've won one playoff

267
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: game in two years. I guess they've won two playoff

268
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: games in the three years of the floor's being been there,

269
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: but they've been the number one seed two out of

270
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: the three of them. Think they're gonna be fine. I've

271
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: never said that the Packers are gonna suck. I just

272
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: have more faith in Andy pivoting because I've seen him

273
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: pivot for years now. Rogers probably be fine, you know,

274
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 1: with some of these random guys. But I would say

275
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: their groups a little more random than even the Chiefs.

276
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: So that there, I mean, they're gonna depend on a

277
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: North Dakota State player. Now, do they end up signing

278
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: some veteran wide receiver. I don't even know who that

279
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: would be at this point. But again, I'm picking the

280
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: Packers to win the division. I'm gonna pick them probably

281
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: win eleven games, both teams, eleven or ten games. What

282
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: would be the impact of one of the Live golfers

283
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: winning the Open this year this weekend? Well, to me,

284
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: the only guy that could win it and recording this

285
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: on Friday afternoon would be DJ, and that would be

286
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: a huge moment for Live even though, like we all know,

287
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: DJ was sweet and he's the only sweet guy they

288
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: really got. So would it even be that crazy? Like, yeah,

289
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: they stole a top ten player and who's won the

290
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: US Open before, So maybe it wouldn't be that crazy. Now,

291
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: Greg Norman would never shut up about it, but uh,

292
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: I would imagine Live really wants DJ to win. Big

293
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: time Steelers fan, I know you're not a big canny

294
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: Pickett guy, but when I watched Pitt highlights, he seems

295
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: to have a good arm and throws well on the run.

296
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: What do you think is the best case scenario as

297
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: far as his ceiling. I think he can prove doubt

298
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: or is wrong. And why do people continue to sleep

299
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: on the Steelers when Tomlin always has them in the

300
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: playoff mix. It's a quarterback league, and when you have

301
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: a great quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, you know, Russell Wilson,

302
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Mahomes. You know, it's just we're

303
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: gonna be more inclined to talk about those teams you have,

304
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: Miss Drabinsky and Kenny Pickett. Now maybe I'm wrong. Maybe

305
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett turns out to be a really good player,

306
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: but maybe he doesn't. And Mr Whiskey's you're starting quarterback.

307
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: Mr Rabinsky. Now you can say that you're a better

308
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 1: organization than Chicago, that's a fact. But like when your

309
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 1: quarterback is in question, it's hard to make the playoffs.

310
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 1: Think about you guys. Last year Roethlisberger was a shell

311
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: of himself and it took the Colts losing the Sunday

312
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: took the Colts losing and the Raiders and charges not

313
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: tying for you guys to get in as a seven seat.

314
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: So it's it's just really hard. I think that's part

315
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: of it, innocent or not. We talked frequently about how

316
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: poor Deshawn's decision making was with the massage therapist, which

317
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: is completely valid. But can I make the argument that

318
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: the most absurd part of the entire story is how

319
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 1: atrocious of a business decision this could turn out to

320
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: be for Jimmy Haslum. Imagine if Big Rog really does

321
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 1: want to drop the hammer and too Seawan doesn't see

322
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: the field for one or two more years, has Lum

323
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: could end up nuking his franchise out of desperation. I

324
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: can't even imagine if a regular business gave an employee

325
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: that much guaranteed money while in legal trouble. Curious on

326
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 1: your thoughts, Well, let's think about it when the money

327
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: we're talking too, thirty million dollars would only be possible

328
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: right in a couple industries. It would be like Netflix

329
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 1: or Apple or something pays a huge like Leo Noardo

330
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: DiCaprio for like a five series movie thing. Uh. Maybe

331
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: it happens with a musician like I pay Drake or

332
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: I pay Taylor Swift for like five or six albums. Uh.

333
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: I guess it could happen with like a CEO of

334
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 1: like a major major company, right like Apple or Google.

335
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: I hired the ceo, I gave him five four D

336
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: three million dollars and they're they're involved in something like this.

337
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say in all these other

338
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 1: industries music, uh, you know, TV, slash, movie, streaming, CEO,

339
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: none of them would be signed while this was going on.

340
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say that this would only

341
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 1: happen in sports, and you could argue it might only

342
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 1: happen in football. And the thing I just can't get

343
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: my head around is the amount of women. You know

344
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: it would be I think it would we view it

345
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: so much differently it was just him one on one

346
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: with a massage therapist, because we've seen similar situations like that,

347
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 1: we'd be like he said, she said, not fair to

348
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,120
Speaker 1: make a judgment. It's the amount of women. How could

349
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: they possibly like is there a massage therapist union? How

350
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: they know each other? And they're all giving similar accounts

351
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: of the small towel Like I, I I just think that

352
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 1: he's in major ship right now. And ultimately, how's this

353
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: gonna go away? That's my question? How is this gonna end?

354
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: How is all of a sudden it's like it's gonna

355
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: be over. It does even feel remotely close to ending,

356
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: which is a major problem for Jimmy Haslin, who, let's

357
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: face it has been one of the biggest clown owners

358
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: in the NFL over the last decade. Freddy Kitchens, Hugh Jackson,

359
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: I mean he stole from the Truckers. He's just, I mean,

360
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: a shitty owner. Now sometimes it's be like, well, it's

361
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 1: the coach and the GM's fault. Do you think the

362
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 1: coach and the GM it would be impossible for them

363
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 1: to do this because ultimately the owner would have to

364
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: sign off and want to pay the guy that much

365
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: guaranteed money. It's why all the other teams backed out.

366
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: Their owners were like, we're not giving him two thirty

367
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 1: million dollars. So yeah, major problem, major problem. My question

368
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: is about the Bills. I think they're getting caught up

369
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: in the a f C West action in the off

370
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 1: season and ignoring the fact that the Bill's team could

371
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: be the best team in the league since Oh seven,

372
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: number one defenses, three first round studs, added von Miller

373
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 1: and added the number one first round corner, added another

374
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: first round corner, number one offensive, the best, second, best

375
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: young quarterback. I think they could win fifteen to seventeen games.

376
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: Is this the regular season? Uh? What do you think? Ps?

377
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: You mentioned a need for questions coming up for the show.

378
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: I'm always down to help with content if you need

379
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: a filler questions, keep the d M s open. Um.

380
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 1: I mean, seventeen and O would probably be unrealistic, but yeah,

381
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say fourteen and three to

382
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: me is probably the new that extra game. The season

383
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: is so long, you could argue fifteen or fourteen and

384
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 1: three is like the new fifteen and one. Uh, because

385
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: I'd be shocked if we see a team go sixteen

386
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: and one and fifteen and two fields honestly pretty hard

387
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: to Um. Yeah, I'd say fourteen and three. You if

388
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: we played out a simulation of the next ten years,

389
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: I would imagine that fourteen and three basically gets you

390
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: the number one seed every single season. So if you

391
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 1: go fourteen and three year in the driver's seat, which yeah,

392
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: I'm I'm with you, very very possible, I think they're

393
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: gonna be really, really good. And someone asked me, like,

394
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: what does Josh Allen need to do to win a

395
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 1: Super Bowl? I don't know, just keep playing like he's playing.

396
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: Let me just keep doing what he's doing. You know

397
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: he's gonna win one. Uh if he stays healthy. I

398
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 1: don't see how he doesn't win a super Bowl in

399
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: his career. Now there's no guarantees took it away forever.

400
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: Damn Marino never won one. It's hard Jim Kelly and

401
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: those great teams never won on him. But I feel

402
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: pretty confident if you gave me, you gotta put ten

403
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, will Josh Allen win a Super Bowl? Will

404
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 1: Josh Allen not win a Super Bowl? My ten thousand

405
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: dollars would go on Josh Allen winning a super Bowl.

406
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 1: The Falcons, while I think they were smart to not

407
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: overdraft a quarterback in Round one or two, I don't

408
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: understand why they pick Ridder over Willis from a scouting perspective.

409
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: Is there any justification to take Desmond Ridder over Malik Willis.

410
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: Both seem like long term projects, but it seems like

411
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 1: Willis has a higher ceiling. Well, there's no arguing that

412
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,359
Speaker 1: Ritter has less physical talent than Willis in terms of

413
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 1: a thrower. Ritter does not have a great arm and

414
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: Willis has a hose. But we've seen a lot of

415
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: guys with huge arms never develop in anything. But when

416
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: you look at Arthur Smith, the offensive coordinator, the quarterbacks

417
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: that he's dealt with before, Mariota tanny Hill are not

418
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,920
Speaker 1: freak talents. They're athletic, but in terms of arm talent average.

419
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 1: So I think he saw a lot of Ritter in

420
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 1: the guys that he had previously coached in Mariota and

421
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: tanny Hill, who he believes I'm sure he can win with.

422
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: Where Willis is much more of like a Josh Alleny,

423
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: you know, major project Trey Lance, like you gotta do

424
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 1: a lot of work. Accuracy is gonna be like it's

425
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: just a major, major project, and maybe he just wanted

426
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 1: to go A lot of coaches do this. They go

427
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: with what they like, They go with what they concede

428
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: that they've used before, which is human nature. If you've

429
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: done something before, like if you're a sales guy and

430
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: you're trying to make a sale and you have a

431
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 1: couple of moves or a couple of lines that have

432
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: worked before, you're gonna go back to it, right just it.

433
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: It's human nature. You go with what you feel comfortable doing,

434
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 1: and maybe he's just more comfortable with that type package.

435
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: My take on Desmond Ritter was I didn't quite see

436
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 1: it uh as a future started, but they drafted him

437
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: in the third round. So when you drafted Got in

438
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: the third round. I got. I got no issue with

439
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 1: taking a guy like him. You were critical of the

440
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: Hoodie for having the beard called the offense. You sided

441
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 1: Andy and Kyle and how they adapt at calling plays.

442
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: Hasn't Bill earned the benefit of the doubt. I'm not

443
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: saying I'm on board of this bullshit. I'm just saying

444
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: my man's been win super balls for virtually all of

445
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: Kyle's life. It seems like that only bought him tour

446
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 1: years of and credit. I moved to this spiteful little

447
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: in enclave of the country twelve years ago. I learned

448
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: two things. Don't park in a space you didn't shovel out,

449
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: and never doubt Belichick, could you have second thoughts about

450
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: shorting the paths? Or is there just no chance? I'm

451
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: with you on Bill as are in the benefit of

452
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: the doubt. No one disputes I know he got edgy

453
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: last year or maybe a couple of years ago. No

454
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: one is arguing his resume. It speaks for itself. I mean,

455
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: he's He's beyond elite. He's the greatest football coach to

456
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,439
Speaker 1: ever coach in the National Football League, college or high school.

457
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: He's literally the greatest coach ever. But when you get

458
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: seven years old and you make a former defensive coordinator

459
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 1: your offensive coach, I think it's not only fair to

460
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: question it, but I think it's fair to go this

461
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 1: is fucking moronic. This is stupid. Like you get the

462
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: benefit of doubt when you draft and you take the

463
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: guy Cole Strings, Like what, I'm not questioning for that.

464
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: That's that's his prerogative. He might found the next Logan Mankins.

465
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: But when you make Matt Patricia your offensive coordinator, like

466
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 1: when I talk about Kyle Andy or McVeigh, like those

467
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: guys are offensive coaches and they coach offense. I was

468
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: there when Andy made One Castillo the defensive coordinator because

469
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: you didn't want to lose him, and it will it backfired.

470
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: Like it's why it's like impossible to do. It's really

471
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 1: really hard. I just think there's a reason why, you know,

472
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh or Kyle shanahan when they lost Brandon Staley

473
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: and Robert Salo, that they didn't go, you know, I

474
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: know on the offensive coordinator head coach. But I'm gonna

475
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: make Kevin O'Connell and Mike McDaniel my offensive coordinator they're

476
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: gonna call plays, and I'm not gonna hire a defensive coordinator.

477
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be the d C. You'd be like, what

478
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 1: what's this guy doing? I'm sorry. This is not a

479
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 1: shot at Belichick individually as a coach, but this decision

480
00:26:55,520 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: is outrageous, like outrageous. We all have to agree making

481
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: Matt Patricia your offensive coordinator. And here the other thing.

482
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: If Tom Brady was there and Tom's like, I love Patricia,

483
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: we can figure it out, I'd be like, that makes

484
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 1: more sense. It's a second year quarterback. Do you know?

485
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: Unfair that is to Mac Jones. I just I think

486
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 1: Belichick is I even think his son and mail their

487
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 1: defensive staff is fantastic. But Matt Patricia's gonna call offensive place.

488
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,640
Speaker 1: I want to play them. I want to play them bad.

489
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 1: If i'm another team, keep up the great work. I'm

490
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: up and coming podcaster and curious if you have any

491
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: advice on how to stick out and be that one

492
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 1: percent first and foremost, you just you gotta do good

493
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: a good show. Uh. I would say, find a lane

494
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: that you feel passionate and knowledgeable about and talk about it.

495
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: Then you know it's it's gonna be difficult. I mean,

496
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 1: part of the reason I've had two podcasts. One was

497
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: a radio show, so we had a built in audience.

498
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,479
Speaker 1: The other had Colin Coward backing me. So it's just

499
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: it's you're not just gonna get an audience from scratch.

500
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 1: I would say you gotta utilize Instagram, you gotta utilize YouTube.

501
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: I I don't. I mean, it's just very very hard.

502
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: You gotta be relentless, you gotta be consistent, and then

503
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: you gotta just do it for a long time. Like

504
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 1: it might not it might take a couple of years.

505
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: A lot of podcasts, especially if a recession, hits are

506
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 1: gonna go away, are gonna go away. So you know

507
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,239
Speaker 1: that the amount of podcast is gonna diminish would be

508
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: my big picture take. But not like if there's I

509
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: have no clue how many podcasts. Let's just say this

510
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 1: is number is low. Let's say there's a million podcasts.

511
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: That number can be cut in half in a year

512
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: and a half. I'll promise you that. So are you

513
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 1: willing to stick it out? Because it's one of those

514
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: businesses that like you don't have to do it? Do

515
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: you want to do it? You know, it's just like

516
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: you want to record that. Now, let's take the weekend off.

517
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: I mean I've recorded on the weekend basically, I would

518
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: say nine of the weekends for the last five years.

519
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,479
Speaker 1: It might not be long, it might just be minutes,

520
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: but like it's just it never ends. This isn't like

521
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: you know, taking some of a break. No, I might.

522
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: I might take a week off here in a couple

523
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: of weeks. But you know what I'm saying. So I

524
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 1: would say, be consistent, be relentless. You're gonna need some luck.

525
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: You gotta post use YouTube, Uh, find a lane that

526
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: you like talking about too. Don't just be like, you know,

527
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 1: I kind of like baseball. I'm gonna talk about baseball

528
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: because if you're not passionate or fired up about it,

529
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: like you're gonna like what am I gonna talk about today?

530
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: So you've got to find something that you like talking about.

531
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: And if you find something you like talking about, and

532
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: then obviously there's gonna be some Are you talented enough

533
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: to just talk? It's not. I mean, ultimately, my greatest

534
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: talent is I just talk a lot. And I've been

535
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 1: talking a lot since I was like two years old.

536
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: My dad used to always tell me to shut up.

537
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: It's just something I have. Like, it's not like I'm

538
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: just I never talked, then I just do it now

539
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: like I've been talking my whole fucking life. No on stop.

540
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's not the greatest quality, but in terms of

541
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 1: making a profession out of podcasting, it's allowed me to

542
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: put food on the table. And right now, with inflation,

543
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: food is pretty expensive. So uh and only getting more

544
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: expensive if you've got to the store lately. Holy Connoli,

545
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: as Clay would say, it is not cheap. Uh So yeah,

546
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: consistency number one, find something you like, talk about number two,

547
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: and then just figure out kind of your lane. Use

548
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: social media, use YouTube, use Instagram. Don't waste time to

549
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,239
Speaker 1: meet Twitter is a waste of time. I would not

550
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: waste much time on Twitter. A lot of cluster. They're

551
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: not a lot of society on their Society is on YouTube.

552
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: Society is on Instagram. That's where the people are. Twitter

553
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 1: feels loud, not a lot of people. I promise you,

554
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: as someone that's been on it for a decade, don't

555
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: waste your time. How I'd go, TikTok TikTok. TikTok has

556
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: way more people than I think Instagram, so I would

557
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: spend my time there promoting it, and good luck to

558
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: you audios, have a good weekend. See it the volume
