Speaker 1: I mean maybe we have we have struck and hit

19
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: on an idea that could be worth millions and millions

20
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:02,840

21
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,680

22
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 4: of idea, lots of ideas. Yeah, here's the thing.

23
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: I just get the tune of fish to Eat the

24
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: Man and Here's the thing is like I like to

25
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: have the ideas. I don't want the sweat equity involved

26
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: in making it happen. I just want, Hey, here's the idea,

27
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: and you give me point three percent of your profits.

28
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 4: That's it.

29
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: Not three percent point three percent, that's all. It's an idea.

30
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: Point three percent. Everybody wins. Right, here's an idea. Oh

31
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: I got the idea worked out great?

32
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 4: Right.

33
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: So maybe you've heard the story surrounding Bengals rookie defensive

34
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: end Shamar Stewart.

35
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 3: Uh.

36
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: He is the only one of the first round picks

37
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: in this year's NFL Draft to not sign with a team.

38
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, why is this happening? Remember when I

39
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: said the very beginning, Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Shamar Stewart.

40
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 4: Okay, the bends.

41
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: Would be Cincinnati Bengal, Yeah, it would be.

42
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: Now, there's been some stories the past couple of days

43
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: that potentially Jamar Stewart could go back to school, right,

44
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: like he could go back there. Came out of Texas

45
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: A and M seventeenth overall pick in the draft. He

46
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: has been back working out at Texas A and M,

47
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: and there's been some scuttle but that. Hey, Stuart could say, okay,

48
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: you know what, I could go back to college football

49
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: and play a year and then re enter the draft.

50
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 1: Now things would get a little bit crazy because technically

51
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: the Bengals would still own his rights, so it would

52
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: have to be Jamar Stewart going to court to try

53
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: to win. But we've seen this now. Going to court

54
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 1: and winning is now no longer. Hey, it's a long shot,

55
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: last or never gonna happen. Like anybody that goes to

56
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 1: court goes, wow, it's a awes up. Yeah, fifty to fifty.

57
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,959
Speaker 1: Maybe it happens, but it's easier to win now in court,

58
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: especially when you're talking about players' rights in college football

59
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: the NFL. Right, the tide has changed on that in

60
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: the past five years with nil and transfer.

61
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 4: So maybe he could win.

62
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 1: However, Texa A and M coach mikel said that's not happening.

63
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: There's no intentions of Shamar to play for the Aggies.

64
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: This year has been around. He's comfortable in the program,

65
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,959
Speaker 1: likes what we do, been training, getting ready here is great.

66
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 1: We wish him the best, right, so potentially he could

67
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 1: go back, you know, to play a text say and

68
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: Evan right now, I mean, maybe Elko is trying to say, Okay,

69
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: you know what, We're not doing this, it's not happening.

70
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: He's here and that's the end of the story, or

71
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: basically saying, hey, just you know where we stand on this.

72
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: We're not involved, and maybe if Stuart would go back

73
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: and sue and win, it could wind up happening. Obviously,

74
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: the most desirable outcome is to have him continue to

75
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: play with the Bengals, and that's kind of where they're going.

76
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: They report this weekend, and you know he's he says,

77
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: I'm not asking for anything they haven't done in the past.

78
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 4: And I have to.

79
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: Think, while not knowing a lot about Shamar Stewart, I

80
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: know a lot about the Bengals, so it's not like

81
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: he's sitting here saying, though, w I can't believe they

82
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: We've never heard this about that. No Bengals, we kind

83
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: of get stuff like this. So yeah, I'm okay with

84
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: the Bengals. But this is a different conversation, my Carmen,

85
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: because this got me thinking about something.

86
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 5: Okay, yes, because it's all Bengals, right, because it guaranteed moneies.

87
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: This is this is outside of Shamar Steur, right, guess

88
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: just say, hey, here he is and after going to

89
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: the NFL for whatever reason, he wants.

90
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 4: To go back to school.

91
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: Okay, made me think about this, and now I want

92
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: to I want to hear from ty Shirt and Breonna

93
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: on this, because you know they've been to school more.

94
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 4: Recently then than you and I have been.

95
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: What about the idea of because we see this in

96
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball there's fantasy camps where you know, guys

97
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: who are over forty or over fifty go and they

98
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: pretend to be baseball players for a week and they

99
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 1: dress up and then they get instructed by team legend.

100
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: You spend a lot of money to do this. You're

101
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: playing games. Oh I did fantasy camp.

102
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 4: It was awesome, Right.

103
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: You get yelled like that, Oh sure, sure, sure, yeah, yeah,

104
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 1: I was always up for it. Let's go to fantasy

105
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: football camp.

106
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 4: Man.

107
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: I want to go run the football against ray Lewis.

108
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: I want to see what that guy's got to offer.

109
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 4: Yell me see, yeah, you get in that whole.

110
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna do the Oklahoma drill that hole between the

111
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: between the two line and you see, you see if

112
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: you could tackle me as I'm coming through the whole,

113
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: you know, once.

114
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 5: Upon a time when I used to do training camp

115
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 5: tours writing for Fox Sports dot com and one year

116
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 5: they did bring a camera man with me. We tried

117
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 5: to sell Mike tom Win not allowing me to go

118
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 5: and take a hit. It was a great conversation, like

119
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 5: the eyes kept getting wider like and this is before

120
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 5: my relationship and our relationship on the show with Glazier

121
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 5: became what it did to where you know, a guy

122
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 5: that we could joke with and have fun with his uh,

123
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 5: his driver, Howie Long and all. Maybe now if I

124
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 5: was that age and and with the Glazier, you know,

125
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 5: Glazer Paluza tour, maybe it could have pulled that off.

126
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 5: But I tried that once and the response was about

127
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 5: as good as a get my buddy's tounch Ilkin and

128
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 5: Craig Wolfy rest in peace both Uh they were trying

129
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 5: to sell.

130
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 3: Tomlin on a two and that's one hit. What's what's Goinda?

131
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 3: What's the worst saying?

132
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: And Steelers owner Mike Harmon had this to say after

133
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: he bought the team after his lawsuit went through.

134
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 3: Think about all the paperwork I would have had to sign?

135
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 4: Oh right, oh sure?

136
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: By Stuart Scott did that with the Jets, like he

137
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: he because he played at North Carolina and I remember

138
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 1: him going to Jets training camp and like doing a

139
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: whole thing and doing a diary and going through all

140
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: the practices and everything else.

141
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 4: A Jets training campus. Sol. You know, we've seen that.

142
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 1: But I'd be like, really, you want to go get

143
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: you want to go get hit? Really that's what I want. Yeah,

144
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: one time I want TJ. Wat Who do you want

145
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: to go against?

146
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 4: TJ. Watt?

147
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 3: That's what I want to do. I can taste my spleen.

148
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 4: But is there a market for that?

149
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: You have the football part of this, yeah, but fantasy

150
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: college camp where you go back to college for a week. Right,

151
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: You stay in a dorm, right, Obviously it's a nicer door.

152
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: It's a little bit nicer dorm than than you would

153
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 1: stay in, you know, because it's you know, it's a

154
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: you know, you want to go back and you know,

155
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: obviously when you're you know, thirty forty fifty years old,

156
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: it's a boy. That room is really small, there's not

157
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: a lot of room, but you have a roommate and

158

00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: be to create uh, you know, an alternate college, right,

193
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 1: like create a generic college and have people come to it,

194
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: or to try to sell the idea to actual college

195
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: themselves and say, hey, people want to come back and

196
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,240

00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: This is like would this be a like a business model,

277
00:11:58,480 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 1: Would this be a thing that people would go to?

278
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: Would you do a tight shirt? Would you go back?

279
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I know you would go back because you

280
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 1: want to say, hey, you know, subscribe to my podcast

281
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:08,360

00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 5: oh out on the quad, like you remember the Titans.

285
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,719
Speaker 9: I'd be like Kunu from Forgetting Sarah Marshall too. There

00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:25,880

287
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 9: I definitely do it.

288
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think there's a market for that.

289
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 3: It'd be fun.

290
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: I think there's a market. And I think the best part,

291
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: the big selling part is yeah, you have assignments. Yeah,

292
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: but dude, just like college, you can do it or

293
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 1: not do it, and don't worry about failing. It doesn't

294
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: matter like you could you could. At the end of

295
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 1: the week, you're going back to your life. What does

296
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 1: it matter if you.

297
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 5: But then all of a sudden, the transcript shows up

298
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 5: at your job and you get fired because you didn't

299
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 5: complete the academic Now, like you were a coach at

300
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 5: notre name or something, they said you went back to

301
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 5: this school.

302
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: I would want people to come back and do it.

303
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: But maybe that's a big hook, is that, hey, you

304
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: cannot do your assignments. Right, that's fine, you cannot do it,

305
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: but you can't do college. You can't come back and

306
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: do Fantasy college week again if you don't finish your assignments.

307
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: So maybe oh, I gotta finish the assignments and I

308
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: get to go to happen.

309
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 3: And transfer school for college week.

310

372
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 7: because in your world, because this is a true story,

373
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 7: I kid you not, and I understand that the current

374
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 7: events may think, ah, that's not true, but I have

375
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 7: photo evidence of the fact, but it did not go viral.

376
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 7: When he asked what year in college, he made me

377
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 7: wonder do we like, are we going back to like

378
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 7: being sophomore than like because right now, like my sophomore

379
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 7: year in high school or college. Rather, I went to

380
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 7: a Coldplay concert with a girl who is not my girlfriend, Okay,

381
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 7: and I'm I was actually in the third row.

382
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 3: I was in the third row. So she was a

383
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 3: huge fan, and she actually asked me if I wanted

384
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 3: to go exactly.

385
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 7: But now I'm wondering because now I got to question

386
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 7: the whole thing because it's hot out here in these streets,

387
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 7: and I don't know, man, they put people on jumbotrons

388
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 7: now when you try your best.

389
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought you say it's hot

390
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: air in the streets. No, the rooms be air conditioned.

391
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: That will make sure there's air conditioning. You're not You're

392
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: not gonna You're not gonna rough it.

393
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 9: And I will try to fix you.

394
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 5: Well, you know there's something else with that song, right

395
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 5: There was a movie called Young and Heart with a

396
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 5: bunch of veterans and geriatric singing that song, which takes

397
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 5: on a whole other meaning.

398
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 4: And oh, by the way, here's how great idea. I

399
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 4: know this over. I think we already have financial backing.

409

Speaker 10: Harmon, Well Dressed, Hobo, Well.

483
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 4: We thought it was gonna be.

484
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 1: A while for Damian Lillard to pick his next destination,

485
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: maybe a year the Bucks buy him out for one

486
00:19:58,600 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: hundred and thirteen million.

487
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,719
Speaker 4: It's gonna take a while to choose his next team.

488
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: Did it today three years, forty two million dollars to

489
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: go back to Portland. This is where he's gonna rehab

490
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: and not play this year, and obviously, you know, less money,

491
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: but they're going to really a two year deal for

492
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: him to try to finish his career back home where

493
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: it all began.

494
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 4: For him in Portland.

495
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: And you know, look, we talked about this earlier in

496
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 1: the show. It's a great ending for him, and I

497
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 1: think honestly we sort of I think fans sort of

498
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: wanted it for Damian Lillard more than he did, because look,

499
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: he's a guy that leaves it all on the floor

500
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: and that's awesome, But overall, he's not Kobe lebron KB

501
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 1: where he burns to win a title more than anything. Yeah,

502
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: he's out there, he wanted to win. He took a

503
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: shot with with Milwaukee, didn't work. Yeah, I'm okay. I

504
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 1: like my life. I'm happy in Portland. I'm happy going

505
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 1: out given my all. If we win, great, If not

506
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 1: we don't, I'm still doing my best and I'm enjoying

507
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: and I'm having fun being an NBA star are And

508
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,120
Speaker 1: sometimes that's okay too, But.

509
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 3: That's just it.

510
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 5: It's recognizing that there is a large spectrum, uh and

511
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 5: continuum to all of this in terms of motivations to

512
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,360
Speaker 5: keep playing. Right, He's been in the league over a decade.

513
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 5: Got the kids that are in Portland, wanted to go

514
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 5: to Miami, didn't get there. And and like I keep

515
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 5: joking with you, Giannis might have said, I won't.

516
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 3: Be here after this year's I'll come back.

517

00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 4: will be here. Oh okay, then I'm leaving. Okay, yeah, wow, you.

519
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 3: Had to drag Doc along the way.

520
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 5: I make an innocuous Yannis joke and bam you come.

521
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 3: Over the top.

522
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:43,720

Speaker 1: in probably a year from now. The latest on Lebron

536
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: James and Luka Doncic now potentially after Rich Paul says

537
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 1: a day ago, Hey, doesn't look like we're gonna ask

538
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,399

539
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: go get bet. Doesn't mean a trade can't still happen

540
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 1: maybe now more a buyout is what we're seeing.

541
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 3: Hey, I was telling you that two weeks ago.

542
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:38,360
Speaker 1: Potentiallys the Cavaliers, the Knicks, and the Mavericks are all

543
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: the teams that are keeping an eye on the Lebron

544
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: James situation. All right, so wait, wait, maybe a buyout

545
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,360
Speaker 1: coming with us now on the hot line. You can

552
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 4: How's your summer so far?

553
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 10: You guys lost my number?

554
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: Well, Harmon was on vacation. I got vacation. You know,

555
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: we were taking some time. Hey, you know it's it's

556
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 1: it's the jet setting lifestyle.

557
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 10: Here we have on radio vacation.

558
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 8: I mean, there's a little thing called NBA free agency.

559
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 8: Have you guys not heard of that? What do you

560
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:27,400
Speaker 8: mean vacation?

561
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: I know, but I can't keep waiting for the trades market.

562
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 1: At some point, wife was going to say, hey, we

563
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: got it, We got to go. At some point, I'm like, okay,

564
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 1: but the trades are coming any day any day now.

565
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 8: Yeah, you got July twenty fifth to mid August. What

566
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 8: are you missing exhibition football and NFL training camp?

567
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: So are we still going to get that? Are we

568
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 1: still going to get any big trades coming soon? Or

569
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: is that kind of starting to go away?

570
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 8: Well, look, I think you have to in all seriousness.

571
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 8: I mean there were five six pretty significant trades before

572
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,439
Speaker 8: the draft, and I think you guys have heard this

573
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 8: speech from me before that, like if if it didn't

574
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 8: happen yesterday, we all say this off season was a dud.

575
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 8: I mean no, this off season was not a dud.

576
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 8: And even today like Damian Lillard, Damian Lillard, you know,

577
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 8: and basically announcing that he is going back to the

578
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 8: Portland Trail Blazers is a pretty significant mid July curve

579
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 8: ball slash surprise. So even free agency, you know, nobody

580
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,120
Speaker 8: has cap space, so free agents aren't moving from team

581
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 8: to team. That's just not the way it happens anymore

582
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 8: because so many free agents sign extensions. But between trades

583
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 8: the way the whole Miles Turner thing unfolded and now

584
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 8: Damian Lillard waved and stretched. But going back to the

585
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 8: Blazers like I would, I would stauntily dispute the notion

586
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 8: of a dud summer. But can I promise you another

587
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 8: blockbuster trade on the level of Kevin Durant to Houston

588
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 8: Porzingis and Holiday getting moved by the Celtics. I mean,

589
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 8: I cannot promise you, but I also wouldn't be shocked.

590
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:16,880
Speaker 4: Well, well, what do you make of the Lillard thing?

591
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 4: Like that?

592
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,120
Speaker 1: We all thought, Okay, he's going to take a long time,

593
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 1: he's going to rehab in Portland before he chooses next team,

594
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: and not Nope, he's back there three years, forty two million.

595
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 8: I think you guys know me pretty well by now.

596
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 8: I think you know I am an incurable romantic, So.

597
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 4: I love it.

598
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 10: I love the story. Look, he acts out, he.

599
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 8: Acts for a trade that was certainly part of it. Now,

600
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 8: I think the Blazers helped nudge him to that place.

601
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 10: It was not one.

602
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 8: Hundred percent on him, but you know it was. He

603
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 8: left on his own volition, essentially asking for a trade.

604
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 8: They traded into Milwaukee. Uh, it didn't work. I mean,

605
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 8: you know, what the Bucks did was incredibly bold. I mean,

606
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 8: the Bucks have all always been bold in the Jannas

607
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 8: to the Kumpo era, but no, what they gave up

608
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 8: to trade for Drew Holliday was massive, and that led

609
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 8: to a championship and an instant Yanis the Kuombo contract extension.

610
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 8: Before that, they made the big swing trade for Lillard

611
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 8: that obviously didn't work nearly as well in the playoffs,

612
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 8: but that also led to a Janis n the Kumpo

613
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 8: contract extension, and then just the pathway they took to

614
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 8: wave and stretch Lillard and create the cap space the

615
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 8: sign Miles Turner. And you know, we still don't have

616
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 8: a super clear indication of how Jannas and Tokumpo really

617
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 8: feels about that transaction. Had the Bucks done enough to

618
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 8: placate him and convince him that this team can get

619
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 8: back on a title winning pas. That will will have

620
00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,919
Speaker 8: to see and we'll see how that plays out. But

621
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 8: Damian Lillard decided to go back to Portland. He's going

622
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 8: to be out for this whole season. But like I said,

623
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 8: I you know, I don't know if they'll ever win

624
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 8: a championship now because the Blazers have a lot of

625
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 8: teams ahead of them in the West. But I like,

626
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 8: I like guys who wanted to stay in one place,

627
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 8: and you know, he did take a two season d tour,

628
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 8: but he is going to be I mean he lives

629
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 8: there in the offseason. I mean that is his home

630
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,400
Speaker 8: and he is he is back home now full time.

631
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 10: So I love it. I really do.

632
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 5: Mark talking about another buyouts, you know, stretch kind of situation.

633
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 5: Clippers add Bradley Beal and and finally he's got a

634
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 5: new home after all of the chaos that we had

635
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 5: with Phoenix. How much does it move the needle for them?

636
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 8: Well, Bradley Beal on a five million dollar deal, you

637
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 8: would take that in a heartbeat. I mean there was

638
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 8: a line out the door of teams that wanted Bradley

639
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 8: Beal unrestricted free agent. So you have to say, second

640
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 8: summer in a row. You know, the Clippers let Paul

641
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 8: George walk for nothing, and that would have never happened

642
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 8: under the previous CBA. But their moves last summer in

643
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 8: this summer since making that decision have been sensational because

644
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 8: they are very competitive in the now and they have

645
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 8: financial flexibility to make a big swing in the relatively

646
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 8: near future. So I think a lot of people around

647
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 8: the league are really impressed by the way the Clippers

648
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 8: have handled their business. You know, they didn't want to

649
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 8: sign Norman Powell to a long term deal. They turned

650
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 8: him into John Collins on an expiring deal. Brook Lopez

651
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 8: to join Zubox makes their front line better, and again

652
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 8: they have a lot of flexibility going forward. So the

653
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 8: Clippers are a very interesting team. And look, they still

654
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 8: have a veteran minimum available. There is mutual interest between

655
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 8: the Clippers and Chris Paul. Doesn't mean it is for

656
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 8: sure going to happen. I think both sides are still

657
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 8: weighing it. But Chris Paul's made it pretty clear he

658
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 8: wants to stay close to home. He wants to either

659
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 8: play for the Clippers or go back to Phoenix. You know,

660
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 8: he had interest from Charlotte, his home state Hornets.

661
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 10: The Bucks would have loved to have Chris Paul. You know,

662
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 10: he doesn't. He wants to stay.

663
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 8: If he's going to play a twenty first season, he

664
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 8: wants to be close to home. So the Clippers might

665
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 8: not be done. They might still add Chris Paul. So look, Phoenix,

666
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 8: I mean, they they've done pretty well this summer to

667
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 8: try to get you know, they're they're out of the

668
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 8: they're out of the tax aprons now.

669
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 10: But it's just it's impossible not.

670
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 8: To think about how much matt Ishbia, and it was

671
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 8: matt Ishbia the driving force, gave up to trade for Durant,

672
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 8: and then he insisted on springing in Deal and like

673
00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 8: what they've had to give up to extricate themselves from

674
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 8: the dire financial.

675
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 10: Position they were in.

676
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 8: You know, they've also made some nice acquisitions, but I

677
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,719
Speaker 8: mean they are you know, they've had to give up

678
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 8: a lot of assets to move away from Durant and Deal,

679
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,479
Speaker 8: and I do think they'll be interesting. I do think

680
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 8: they'll probably better than people expect because Jalen Green has

681
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 8: a lot to prove. That's to Devin Booker, Dylan Brooks Springs,

682
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 8: the toughness that Ishbia has been so open about wanting.

683
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 8: So I mean, I think they'll be a reasonably feisty team.

684
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 8: But again, they just they gave up so much to

685
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 8: get Durant and then there took their payroll to just

686
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 8: some really scary places by trading for Belle and just

687
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 8: just again like Bradley Beal with his buyout still walked

688
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 8: away with ninety seven million and and his free agency

689
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 8: ninety seven mil and his free agency. I'm going to

690
00:30:58,440 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 8: go out on a limb and say that was a

691
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 8: buiot record, all right.

692
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: Lastly, Mark, Now we've seen all the stories the last

693
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: few days with the Lakers. They're building towards Luca Lebron

694
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: trade rumors, Lebron buy out rumors, all this craziness. If

695
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 1: I said to you, fill in the blank between now

696
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: and the regular season, the Lakers do blank. What happens

697
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: as far as this whole storyline between now and the

698
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: regular season.

699
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 8: Look, I don't foresee a Lebron trade. It's just really

700
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 8: you know, maybe something materializes.

701
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 10: I mean, I'm in.

702
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 8: The never say never mode after what we witnessed in

703
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 8: February when in the middle of the night on the

704
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 8: Saturday before the trade deadline, we saw Luca Knowtage to

705
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 8: Lakerland trade that no one on Earth envision. So there

706
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 8: is never say never, even even Miles Turner. I mean,

707
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 8: the whole league was expecting Miles Turner to stay in Indiana.

708
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 8: The fact that he's now Milwaukee was just a reminder

709
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 8: again that things move and things are fluid. But to

710
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 8: trade Lebron James, you have to, like the Lakers have

711
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 8: to be happy with the long term money they're taking back,

712
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 8: because they don't want to take back any long term money.

713
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 8: Lebron has to be happy with where he lands because

714
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 8: he has the no trade clause, and the team that's

715
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 8: trading for him has to be wary of giving up

716
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 8: too much for Even if Lebron plays great for another

717
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 8: year or two, you're not going to get more than

718
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 8: a year or two out of.

719
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 10: Him at this point most likely.

720
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 8: So it's just so hard to make the trade work.

721
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 8: To make that triangle of you know, of parties involved

722
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 8: all happy to buy out makes zero sense. Why why

723
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 8: would the Lakers buy him out whatever the number is,

724
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 8: to just let Lebron walk to a rival and make

725
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 8: a rival team stronger. That doesn't make any sense.

726
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:51,479
Speaker 10: For the Lakers.

727
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,479
Speaker 8: The Lakers want Lebron for the rest of the season

728
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 8: unless some amazing trade materializes that meets all their future needs.

729
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 10: But they're not just gonna say, Okay, you know what,

730
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 10: we're gonna buy you out.

731
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 8: Just go sign for whoever you want for the minimum.

732
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 10: I just don't see that happening.

733
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 4: He's on Twitter at the steinline.

734
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: That is at the steinline, Mark as always, thanks so much,

735
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: appreciate it.

736
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 4: We will. We'll talk to you next week. Well I will.

737
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 4: I'm on vacation, so harmit will talk to you next week.

738
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 3: Talk to you next week.

739
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 8: Mark.

740
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 10: Somebody there likes me.

741
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 3: Be good brother, talk to you soon.

742
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, Mark Stein is the best.

743
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: Let's find out what's trended right now in the wide

744
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: world of sports, and Martin Wise, what you got for us.

745
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 7: The nfl PA is looking for a new leader, as

746
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 7: executive director Lloyd Howell announced he'll be stepping down from

747
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 7: the position, stating quote, it's clear my leadership has become

748
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 7: a distraction. There reports that Howell played a part in

749
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 7: hiding a collusion ruling around guaranteed contracts, and how has

750
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 7: a conflict of interest with private equity groups with a

751
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 7: excuse me with the ability to buy parts of NFL teams,

752
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 7: Adam Schefter reporting and several others by the way that

753
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 7: Lloyd Hell stepped down on his own will and volition

754
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 7: and was not forced out nine time. NBA all starts

755
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 7: with Damian Lillard returning home. He's going back to the

756
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 7: Portland Trail Blazers on a three year, forty two million

757
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,280
Speaker 7: dollar contract. He again won't play next year he recovers

758
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 7: from that Achilles injury deal as a player option. In

759
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:22,879
Speaker 7: twenty seven, more than for WNBA players gathered Thursday four

760
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,760
Speaker 7: meeting between the WNBA and its Players Association, the biggest

761
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,840
Speaker 7: in person player turnout in union history during CBA talks

762
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 7: and the first in person meeting amid these ongoing discussions,

763
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,320
Speaker 7: the two sides left with no resolution. Resolution was between

764
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:38,800
Speaker 7: the Pittsburgh Steelers and TJ.

765
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 3: Watts.

766
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 7: He became the highest paid non quarterback in NFL history

767
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 7: for the second time by made the second time by

768
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,240
Speaker 7: this franchise. To this time, though three years, one hundred

769
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 7: and twenty three million dollar extension one hundred and eight

770
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 7: a half fully guaranteed forty one million per year. That's

771
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 7: one of the highest average of any non quarterback in

772
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 7: NFL history at the Open. There's a five way tie

773
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 7: at the top of the leader bo They're all four

774
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 7: under Scottie Scheffler, one shot back, Roy McElroy, three shots

775
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,439
Speaker 7: back Phil Mickelson, who's won under seventy for his best

776
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 7: opening round on an Open championship since twenty sixteen. Looking

777
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,399
Speaker 7: forward to round two of that starting in just about

778
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 7: an hour.

779
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 4: Back to you guys, Thanks so much, Barton, appreciate it.

780
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 1: My friend Jason Smith Mike Harmon live from the Fox

781
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Studios coming up next. When the door closes

782
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: on one high profile wide receiver in the NFL, maybe

783
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 1: another one opens.

784
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 4: That's next right here, Jason and Mike Fox.

785
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of the Jason Smith

786
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,520

787
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 2: pm Pacific.

788
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:45,240
Speaker 1: Smith's Show with my best friend Mike Harmon. Well, apparently

789
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 1: Mike Williams has had enough of Jim Harbaugh. I can't

790
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 1: I can't do it. I can't do it the veteran

791
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Apparently, when you play for the Jets that

792
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 1: goes that badly, you think, okay, it has to end

793
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 1: for me here Mike Williams denounce his retirement at the

794
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: age of thirty earlier. Today's expected to come in and

795
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 1: be the Chargers, potentially their number two receiver this year.

796
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 1: He had been a guy his whole career that had

797
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,360
Speaker 1: been about potential if you ever put it all together.

798
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: He had one really, really good year and now he's decided,

799
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: I've had enough and we'll always have the red line,

800
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:23,240
Speaker 1: the big pattern that he ran wrong, according to Aaron Rodgers,

801
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 1: that caused the Jets to lose a game.

802
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 4: Oh, the red line. The red line will always have

803
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 4: the red line. Mike Williams.

804
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 3: But you go back and look at his career.

805
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 5: He had that twenty twenty one season, eleven and forty

806
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 5: six yards, nine touchdowns. That's the big explosive one. You

807
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 5: had another one thousand yard season going back to twenty

808
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 5: nineteen where he averaged twenty yards to catch.

809
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 3: So every once in a while you were taunted by

810
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 3: the potential.

811
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:51,240
Speaker 5: Twenty eighteen right, always ten touchdowns on his forty three catches,

812
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 5: Like all of this big play threat, big play opportunity here,

813
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 5: I was expecting, you know that maybe a little of

814
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 5: that magic could come back again. And alas we're not

815
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 5: gonna get to see it.

816
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, and I always don't sit back and agree,

817
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 1: like very rarely do I agree with something social media

818
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 1: says about a topic. But does it make sense for

819
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 1: the Chargers to go back out and get Keenan Allen? Now,

820
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 1: of course it does, of course, because you're not You're

821
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 1: not relying on Keenan Allen to come back in and

822
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: be Keenan Allen again, because obviously you have Lad McConkey

823
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 1: is one of the top ten receivers in the NFL

824
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 1: just after his rookie year, Right, Quentin Johnson had a

825
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: much better year two in the NFL than he had

826
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 1: a year one. Still wasn't amazed. Still wasn't he thought

827
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 1: it was gonna be. But still it was way better

828
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 1: to make you think, okay, Johnson is okay, But you

829
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 1: have your two running backs. If Najia Harris gets on

830
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: the field after the after the firecracker incident, but h Harris,

831
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: so Keenan Allen coming in, that would be a great

832
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 1: move finish as you. I mean, look, yes, it's a

833
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 1: storyline to finish as a Charger, and I understand that,

834
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,800
Speaker 1: but you're asking him to come in and be a

835
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: veteran presence and somebody that Herbert trust. Herbert always had

836
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: the trust factor with him. Yeah, I think this is

837
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 1: something that is just made to order with the Charges

838
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: go not getting Keenan Allen.

839
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,800
Speaker 5: Should be able to do it on a minimum deal.

840
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 5: So and to bring these young guys along, right mcaukeey

841
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 5: going into this second year, Trey Harris your second round pick.

842
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 5: You got Hampton in the backfield, so he got a

843
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 5: lot of youth that could use. Another veteran presence and

844
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 5: a guy that will move the chains right and make

845
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 5: things easy for Justin Herbert.

846
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:25,399
Speaker 4: Yeah.

847
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: I mean, look the Chargers already, I am all in

848
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: on them this year. I mean what they were able

849
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: to do last year was terrific. In Harball's first year

850
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: was basically they were using gum and duct tape my

851
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: second gum and duct textually doing it to put a

852
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: team together in year one, and look at how well

853
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 1: they played. I was worried for Justin Herbert's Chargers future.

854
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: He's going to try to de emphasize the quarterback position.

855
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 1: But you know, clearly Harvard knows, oh okay, wait a minute,

856
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 1: he's our best player. But now they've got a couple

857
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,839
Speaker 1: of running backs in there. All they've done is make

858
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: the team better. I'm telling you, man, I am really

859
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,240
Speaker 1: all in on Harball for you. Year two with the Chargers,

860
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: like like, I think they could be surprised team in

861
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 1: the NFL this year. That do I think that experts

862
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: believe that, hey, the charge are gonna be good. Yeah,

863
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,479
Speaker 1: but boy, I think they can be even way better.

864
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,800
Speaker 1: They can challenge for the division, maybe win the division.

865
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: They are they are really really solid. They had a

866
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 1: great offseason, and watch out man. Year two for Harbar

867
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 1: here with the Chargers, Tom all in on them.

868
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 3: Look at you.

869
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 5: The Chiefs minus one ten or minus one twenty, depending

870
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,959
Speaker 5: on where you're shopping. Bronco is your second favorite at

871
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 5: three to one or three and a half to one.

872
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 3: Chargers are right there behind him. Long shot Raiders sixteen

873
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 3: to one.

874
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, the Raiders are. Raiders.

875
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: Have to be happy that height. We stopped the backsliding.

876
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: We got a coach, we got a quarterback.

877
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 4: Brady is here. Okay, okay, all right, we're.

878
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,959
Speaker 1: Still gonna lose, but oh okay, at least the backsliding is done.

879
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,240
Speaker 3: Maybe steps man, baby steps.

880
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: Telling you man, that might wind up being the toughest

881
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 1: division in the NFL this year. It really might be

882
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,720
Speaker 1: a fun teams you could you could make a case

883
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: for all all three of those teams to win, to

884
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: win that division. Right, you can make case for all

885
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 1: three of those teams to win that division this year.

886
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,360
Speaker 3: Look at you and then I mean not the Raiders,

887
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 3: not the Raiders.

888
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,959
Speaker 1: But let again, but good things about the Raiders though,

889
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 1: amazing Coming up next, boy do we have a hundred

890
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 1: million dollar NFL story coming your way next?

891
