I'm 3 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: out here in the grilling area. I got hit with 4 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: COVID on Saturday and had a rough weekend. Had to 5 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: take yesterday off. But the guys did a great job 6 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: in setting up a makeshift studio out here. I made 7 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: the mistakes since it's a little breezy out here. I 8 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: said to Tyler, you know what, why don't you build 9 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: a fire? Everybody loves seeing a fire on TV. Well, 10 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: it was a bonfire here and there's ashes all over 11 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 1: the place. It looks like Vesuvius just went off, and 12 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: it's you know, when you have a hard time breathing 13 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,639 Speaker 1: because of COVID and then you add smoke to it. 14 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 1: That's on me. That's on me. But we're here and 15 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: whatever it takes to win that Sports Emmy. Even if 16 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: I don't really have COVID. Fritzie goes, you don't sound 17 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: like you have COVID. I go, no, No, I have COVID, 18 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: probably still have the remnants of that. We're practicing safe 19 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: broadcasting here and I've had all the shots and the 20 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: boosters as well, but this is one of those if 21 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: you have it, and then you know that feeling of 22 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,759 Speaker 1: the taps you on the shoulder and you just feel 23 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: like you got the flu. You got the weight of 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: the world on your shoulders, and you're exhausted. All you 25 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 1: do is sleep, which is what I did Saturday until 26 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: Monday afternoon.

But my thanks again to the back room guys. 45 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: They did a great job in setting up the studio outside. 46 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: If you're watching on Peacock, you get to see this. 47 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: You could see the Danance in the man cave and 48 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: me out in the grilling area. Yes, Poems, you could 49 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: tell my level. It's a concern. When you call me 50 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,399 Speaker 1: yesterday and you said how do I sound? I said, 51 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: you kind of had to mean more thing going on, 52 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: which is a great compliment. If you're a woman. Yeah, 53 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: and you look like her, yes, but I don't and 54 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm not. It has a whiskey smokiness to it. It's 55 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: good YEA. Plus you have good pipes which helps. Yeah. Yeah, 56 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: I don't had smoke annilation here though all morning long. 57 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: But Mike Florio was going to join his coming up 58 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: big news. Tom Brady when he retires, is going to 59 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: join Fox Sports and he will be their lead analyst 60 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: for their NFL coverage. And we'll talk to Mike Florio 61 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: about that. I'm really surprised. I thought you go from 62 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: the possibility of being a minority owner with the Dolphins, 63 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: playing for the Dolphins too. Now you're gonna be doing 64 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: games for foxing. You know, congrats to Fox. That's a 65 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: big poll there. Peyton took a year off because everybody thought, Okay, 66 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: Peyton's the guy that you want to have as your analyst, 67 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: and maybe ESPN could make a run at him Monday 68 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: Night football. And then he decided that he had had 69 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: other business interest plus with his own business company, and 70 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: he also had a broadcast company. But then he had 71 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: the manning cast. He's able to do a lot of 72 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: other things. Tom It surprised me because I would have 73 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: thought that guy is going to be busy and he's 74 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: not gonna have time to do NFL games. But to 75 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: be an announcer in waiting. You'll find this with players. 76 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: Tike Barber did this. Michael strahand that they might retire 77 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: a year earlier because there is that job waiting for them. 78 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: And Drew Brees was a you know, a broadcaster in 79 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: waiting as well. You want to get that job, and 80 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: you either put your DIBs in and then you'll play 81 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: a season and then you know you have an agreement 82 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: in place. I was just surprised that Brady would be, 83 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: you know, being an analyst for NFL games. Feels like 84 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: he would want to be running a team and all 85 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: the other business entities that he has. But we'll talk 86 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: to Florial about that coming up. Phone calls are welcome 87 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: eight seven seven three d P Show Email address DP 88 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: at dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at dp's show. 89 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: I hope my voice holds up for the rest of 90 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: the show because we're only an hour in, but as 91 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: of now, hopefully it sounds okay. Email address DP at 92 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP show, and 93 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: we'd spend a lot of time. We talked about Celtics 94 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: over the Bucks. That series tied at two games apiece. 95 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: The Warriors held off the Grizzlies without John Morant, and 96 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: that to me says a lot about both these teams. 97 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: Right now, seventy six Ers at the Heat Game five tonight, 98 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: Mavericks at the Sun's Game five. Reggie Miller will join 99 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: us coming up in about an hour from now. The 100 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: Joker is going to win his second straight MVP. I 101 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: think that the best thing for the NBA to do, 102 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: in my opinion, give the award out before the playoffs start, 103 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: because It feels like when we have an argument, we 104 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: have an argument when the playoffs start about somebody who 105 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: has been bounced early or somebody who should have won, 106 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: who's doing some big things in the postseason. Because if 107 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: that's the case, then you might look at Luca don 108 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: Chick as well. You can talk about Joe Ellenbiid or Jannis, 109 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: but what Luca is doing if you want to talk about, well, 110 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: what is he doing on a team that doesn't have 111 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: that second great player, very good player. We've got Jalen 112 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 1: Brunson and Spencer Dinwiddie. Those aren't great players. Now they 113 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: played great at times, But if you want to get 114 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: into a degree of difficulty, then don't forget about what 115 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: Luca is doing with that Dallas Mavericks team. Yes, boy, 116 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: I was thinking about the MVP award. We've we've talked 117 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: about how it's not necessarily best player in the league 118 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: because that could go to the same person seven eight 119 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: years on a row, depending on the status of sport. 120 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: But if I ask you who the best player in 121 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: the NBA is not most important to his team or 122 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: best story, is it one guy or is it three 123 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,359 Speaker 1: or four? I think Jannis is the best player in 124 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: the game. But you know, I'm factoring in offense and defense. 125 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: I'm factoring in a guy who could be the defensive 126 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: Player of the Year every year, and he's a offen 127 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: into fours. You know, Joe ellen beat is in that conversation. 128 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: You know, Luca is not a defensive guy at all. 129 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: Steph Curry is not a defensive guy. I like how 130 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: they go, oh my god, they're taking advantage of Luca. 131 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: He can't play defense. They take advantage of Steph Curry 132 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: every night. Nobody's said, like we pick and choose. It's 133 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: just silly Chris Paul taking it to Luca, And I said, well, 134 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: did just see Luca take to Chris Paul. Chris Paul 135 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: can't guard him. But it feels like, oh, Luca can't 136 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: play did it just dawn on? People watch the games. No, 137 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: Luca doesn't play good defense. He tries. Dallas plays pretty 138 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: good defense. That's what helps. We'll get phone calls coming up. 139 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: We weren't here yesterday to talk about the Kentucky Derby. 140 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: It's one of those stories where you go, all right, 141 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: I don't know much about what's going on, but you 142 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: watch because there's always his storyline, always never fails. Always 143 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: the storyline. And when you had a horse scratch on 144 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: Friday and all of a sudden, Ethereal is not gonna run. 145 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: And then you get a long shot that I think 146 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: started out ninety nine to one Rich Strike and this 147 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: is how it sounded on NBC. Sandon gets the rail 148 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: run and they're into the stretch and it's Betsi a 149 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: chrome Friede.

You know what's amazing, not only rich Strike 157 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: doing that, the call by Larry Colemus that is that 158 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: is brilliant, brilliant. I was. I played it probably ten 159 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 1: times when I was sick over the weekend. I would 160 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: play that call. I felt better listening to that because 161 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: that was a professional call. It was about the horse race. 162 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: It was about the horse, It was about the moment. 163 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: It wasn't about anything to do with the broadcaster. It 164 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: was spectacular.

Mike, 304 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: let me start with the Tom Brady news. If you 305 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: would have said Tom was going to be the lead 306 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: guy for Foxes their football analysts, no matter when it is, 307 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: I would have said, no way. What was your reaction? Yeah, 308 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: I was stunned, Dan, And first of all, I hope 309 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: you're feeling well, and I admire the fact that you're 310 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 1: powering through it. That's great to see. But again, get 311 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: well soon and good to talk to you. As always. 312 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: I was stunned because it didn't seem like the kind 313 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: of thing Tom Brady was ever going to do. But 314 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: maybe he realized. Number one, the money is really, really, 315 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: really good. You can still do a lot of other 316 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: things with your life when you are calling games as 317 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: opposed to preparing to play in games eighteen weeks of 318 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: the regular season and end beyond. And I'd love to 319 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: know what kind of an offer they made. I assume 320 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: they made him an offer he can't refuse, and we 321 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: haven't seen the number yet. The over under for me 322 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: is twenty nine and a half million, and I won't 323 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: be surprised if it's over. I just think it's going 324 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: to take something like that to get him to commit. 325 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: He's the white whale. He and Peyton Manning are the 326 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: two white whales, and Peyton Manning's kind of doing a 327 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: piecemeal with ESPN where he's kind of in it, but 328 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: he's not really in it. To get Brady to go 329 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: all in, I suspect they had to drop a lot 330 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: of money on the table. Wow, it's just a guess. 331 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: It's just a guess. I'll bet Peyton Manning wants to 332 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: know what Tom's getting paid. But I thought Tom would 333 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: want to lean towards ownership business running a team, and 334 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: I think he can do both. I think that he 335 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: will continue to amass his fortune and this is a 336 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: great platform for him to do it. I remember at 337 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: one point Steve Young was the subject of a profile 338 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,959 Speaker 1: in a magazine, the name of which I can't remember, 339 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: but Steve Young said that he was in a hedge 340 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: fund and still is. I believe out in California and 341 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: his partners wanted him to be involved with ESPN and 342 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: the NFL because it made his other interest more marketable. 343 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: It gave him something to talk about. They wanted that. 344 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: And I think that Brady can leverage the platform, the 345 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,239 Speaker 1: visibility into these various other business pursuits that he has, 346 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: so he's still part of the game even if he's 347 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: not playing. And when you look at the total time 348 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 1: commitment and what you're gonna make doing it, and how 349 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: it can help these other things you're trying to do 350 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: as he works towards having enough money to become an owner, 351 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: that won't surprise me. And I don't think it takes 352 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: off the table the possibility of becoming a minority owner 353 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: of the Miami Dolphins. His Fox is going to say no. 354 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: They're not saying no to him continuing with the Buccaneers 355 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: while he's technically employed by Fox moving forward, So I 356 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: take nothing off the table. I just think this expands opportunities, 357 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 1: not limits them for Brady. Tom Brady will be the 358 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: lead analyst for Fox for the twenty twenty three season, 359 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four season, or other. I'll say twenty four 360 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: if I had to pick one. Right now, that's the 361 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: next Super Bowl they have after this year. They've got 362 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: two of the next three, so he would debut in 363 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,479 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl year. It gives him one more year 364 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: with the Bucks and one more year with whoever he 365 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: may choose to try to play for in twenty twenty three. Look, 366 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: and I know that the Buccaneers fans don't want to 367 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: hear it, but it's not going to stop me from 368 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,479 Speaker 1: saying it. The Miami stuff was real. He was going 369 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: to become a minority owner of the team. They were 370 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: going to pursue Sean Payton. They did pursue Sean Payton. 371 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: They admitted they made the phone call. It was going 372 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: to be a lot more than a phone call, but 373 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: for the Brian Flores lawsuit that put the kibosh on everything. 374 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: Otherwise it's quite possible we would be talking right now 375 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: about Brady and Payton as the quarterback and coach of 376 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. I don't think that goes away automatically for 377 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: next year. A lot of it depends on what the 378 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,479 Speaker 1: Dolphins do this year, what Tooa does, other factors come 379 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: into play. But I think the possibility of him playing 380 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: somewhere else next year is still on the table, just 381 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 1: because he's got this deal with Fox. It's when he retires, 382 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 1: not next year. And I would say twenty four if 383 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: I had to guess right now. He's Mike Florial from 384 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk Live. Make sure you pick up a 385 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: copy of his great book, Playmakers. I think your own 386 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: record is saying that the Cleveland brown should cut ties 387 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: with Baker Mayfield. Let me give you my thought on that, 388 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: and then you can give me your side of this. 389 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: Because if I'm looking at this, if I'm the Cleveland Browns, 390 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: I have to look at the season coming up. And Sarah, 391 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 1: we got Deshaun Watson. We don't know when we haven't. 392 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: We have an insurance policy, and granted he's expensive, but 393 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: let's say Deshaun Watson misses eight games. If I have 394 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield to play those games to audition for another 395 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: team and he's healthy, maybe I can get more from 396 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: him and I can salvage this season as opposed to 397 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: having a backup quarterback in there and Baker Mayfield is 398 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 1: playing someplace else. Your turn. I think that makes a 399 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: ton of sense in theory, but the problem is as 400 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: a practical matter of the damage to the relationship has 401 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: become so severe, and I think last week's article from 402 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: ESPN Jake Trotter a bunch of different things we didn't 403 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: already know. And I know that it's frowned upon two 404 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: guests on whose sources may be. This all goes back 405 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: to Mayfield and his camp. I think this is his 406 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: way of rattling the cage to get out of Cleveland. 407 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: And the one thing to me that I think is 408 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: unmendable if Mayfield and or people close to him believe 409 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: that they specifically set him up to fail Week seventeen 410 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh Monday night football prime time to make it 411 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: easier to move on from him to Deshaun Watson. That 412 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: is something there's no coming back from. So Dan, You're strategy. 413 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: I like that a lot more than we're just gonna 414 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: squat on this guy's contract until a trade opportunity falls 415 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 1: out of the sky. At least there is some short 416 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: term beneficial goal. We may need him, maybe for the 417 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: whole season. I don't know. We don't know what the 418 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: league's gonna do. Yeah, the Trevor Bauers suspension for two years, 419 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: that's got to be a factor in how the league 420 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: looks at what they're gonna do with Deshaun Watson. Maybe 421 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: he gets out for the whole year. You need Baker Mayfield. 422 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: They better be working hard behind the scenes to put 423 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: some lips on the rear end of Baker Mayfield to 424 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: get him on board with that, because right now he's 425 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: not on board with it. That's the problem. And once 426 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: you make the move for Deshaun Watson, your relationship with 427 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield ends. If you prolong it, you're only creating 428 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: another distraction for a team that doesn't need it. Got 429 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: twenty two distractions with DeShawn Watson, you don't need a 430 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: twenty third with Baker Mayfield. Explain to me how this 431 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: topic came up of maybe another NFL team in the 432 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: Dallas area. The Mayor of Dallas started tweeting about it. Now, 433 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: the mayor of Dallas wants a separate stadium in South 434 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 1: Dallas where an AFC team would be located. Well, that's 435 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: just stupid, the idea of trying to build another stadium 436 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: when you already have one. And that's how you get 437 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones on board. After I let it marinate for 438 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: a little bit yesterday, I thought, you know, yeah, Jerry 439 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: Jones doesn't want another team in his market, but he 440 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: probably wouldn't mind another team in his stadium. Twenty NFL 441 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: games per year, and you're the landlord, You're Stan Crounkey. 442 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: You got all your own teams games, plus all the 443 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 1: games of the B team. And if Jerry Jones is 444 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: worried about some other team in Dallas, come on, he 445 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: can make a ton of money off of this. And 446 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: I think it makes sense Dan. As the NFL tries 447 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,479 Speaker 1: to increase inventory, they're not going to go any more 448 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: than eighteen games. I think eventually we're going to see eighteen. 449 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: The only way you increase inventory beyond that increase the 450 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: number of teams. And the easiest places to put expansion 451 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: teams are in the markets that are big enough for 452 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: two teams and that already have a stadium. Dallas Chicago 453 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: are the two that I would watch. And whether Jerry 454 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 1: Jones likes it or not, I mean, think of the 455 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: money he could make from having that second team, and 456 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 1: I think that goes a long way toward get him 457 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 1: getting him to agree to it at the appropriate time 458 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: if we ever get there. Yeah, I understand the logic 459 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: to that, and I agree if I'm Jerry Jones, I 460 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: just do what Stan Cronkie did in Los Angeles and 461 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: say I'm gonna build this, build this masterpiece, and you 462 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: come in here and you pay, help pay for this masterpiece. Clippers, 463 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: we're doing that with you with the Lakers in Los Angeles. 464 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: We see that. You can see Chicago maybe doing that, 465 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: reaching out and saying, but does the NFL want two 466 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: teams in those markets or would they rather expand to 467 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 1: other places where they don't have a foothold yet makes 468 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 1: more sense to take advantage of state of the art 469 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: stadiums that you already have. And they're talking about building 470 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: a venue in Chicago outside of town. One of the 471 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: ways you pay for that is having two teams play 472 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: there instead of one. Dan I remember before the NFL 473 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: went back to la Al Michaels said if the NFL 474 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: goes back, it's going back with two teams, and he 475 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: was right, Yeah, London is a market we have to 476 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: continue to watch. They have two NFL ready stadiums there, 477 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: Wembley Tottenham Hotspur. They use them every year for the 478 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: smattering of games. If the NFL ever puts one team 479 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: in London, I think the NFL is putting two teams 480 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: in London, and this is a long term play. But 481 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: I can see thirty two becoming thirty four, becoming six, 482 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: becoming thirty eight. I think the hardcap is forty. The 483 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: quarterback play is going to be an issue, and every 484 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: time we think there's more than enough good quarterbacks to 485 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: go around, we find out, like this year, that there isn't. 486 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: But I think that the gambling legalization, as that spreads, 487 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,719 Speaker 1: as the money keeps getting bigger and bigger, we're going 488 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 1: to see the talk. I think in the next five years, 489 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: the talk of expanding the league is really going to 490 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 1: take route. Yeah, and I agree with you. I understand 491 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: the logic behind that. I'd be remissive and it wouldn't 492 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: be a journalist if I didn't bring up the Deshaun 493 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: Watson situation where this trial might not be heard until 494 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 1: after this next season. Is that a fair time frame 495 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: for this or do you see something that's a little 496 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: more expedited. Absolutely, I believe these cases go to trial 497 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 1: after the upcoming season. Okay, and you've got twenty two 498 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: of them, and Dan, they're not going to be tried 499 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 1: all at once with twenty two plaintiffs going on to 500 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: witness stand and saying what on Watson did according to 501 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: their allegations. If you're Deshaun Watson, you want to isolate these, 502 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: you want to do these one at a time. Well, 503 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 1: good luck getting twenty two cases done in one offseason. 504 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: Good luck with that. I mean, this may not be 505 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 1: done until twenty four unless he settles. And I'm on 506 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: record is saying from the day the Browns traded for him, 507 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: he should have settled the cases. Do it for the Browns, 508 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: do it for the fans. The fans got enough to 509 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: worry about. Then, when these cases are going to get resolved, 510 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: what the blowback's going to be. Is he going to 511 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: be suspended now? Is he going to be suspended later? 512 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: Are they going to suspend him now and then maybe 513 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: leave the door open to suspend him later based upon 514 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: the outcomes of these lawsuits. This is just a distraction 515 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: that you shouldn't want as a team or as a 516 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: fan base, no matter how good the player is. The 517 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: one thing you can say a lot about Stephen Rossie 518 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: under the Dolphins, but he had it right last year. 519 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: He wasn't trading for Watson unless all twenty two cases 520 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: were settled at eighteen were ready to settle, Watson decided 521 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: not to do it. I think he would admit now 522 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: he probably should have knocked out the eighteen while he 523 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: could and focus on the remaining four. Is this the 524 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: first time we've spoken to you since PAULI lost his 525 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: bet that he thought that we'd have a quarterback taken 526 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: in the first thirteen picks? No, yeah, I didn't know 527 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: that there was such a bet. Was there a pie 528 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: in the face? Yeah? And then you also like you're 529 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: losing your bet with Tom Brady, right, I'm just yeah, yeah, Well, 530 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: Seedon intervened with the arbitrator's decision, and it's not over 531 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: until week one. Okay, you think there's a chance Tom 532 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: Brady still is the quarterback of the point? No, by 533 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: I was given the opportunity to remember, I could pick 534 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 1: the pie if I go ahead and accept the medicine now. 535 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: But if it's week one, it's got to be lemon merangue, 536 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 1: which apparently is equivalent of putting your face into a 537 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: vat of boiling ass. Yes, yes, yes, Paul I'll throw 538 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: out a new bet for the room. We one starter 539 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: for the forty nine ers at quarterback is Jimmy Garoppolo. Oh, 540 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: I wouldn't rule that out, would you rule it in? Yeah? Hell, yes, 541 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: it seems like it's go out, Carter. We don't know 542 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: what they think of Trey Lance. That's the one thing 543 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: we don't know, and that's why I think there's a 544 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: chance it will be a wrong. Yeah. I wouldn't be 545 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: surprised if he's the starter. They just want, you know, 546 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: there's no market for Garoppolo. I think they overplayed their hand. 547 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: I think they were getting they were asking for two 548 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: second round picks instead of just saying see it, Jimmy, Well, 549 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: he went and got shoulder surgery without telling him. John 550 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: Lynch recently said that that pulled the plug abruptly on 551 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: any trade talks when Garoppolo goes off campus to get 552 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: shoulder surgery. But Garoppolo, in his own way, is making 553 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: it known he doesn't want to be there. And the 554 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: worst case scenario for him is to get to a 555 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: week before the start of the season and they say 556 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna make twenty five million this year. It becomes 557 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: fully guaranteed as of week one, Trey Lance is our starter. 558 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: You either take ten million dollars or we're gonna cut 559 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: you in good luck finding a job a week before 560 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: the start of the season. Any storylines to keep an 561 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: eye on here for the audience. I mean the Baker 562 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: Mayfield and Jimmy Garoppolo stuff is really top of the stack. 563 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: Keep an eye on what happens moving forward because there's 564 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: just so much drama baked into it. What's Seattle gonna 565 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: do at quarterback? And do you think Gino Smith is 566 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: gonna be He's just gonna say that Gino Smith right 567 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: now is the number one guy on the depth chart 568 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: in Seattle and Dan I think in a weird sort 569 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: of way, and I think the Seahawks are going to 570 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: be better this year than we expect. I think Pete 571 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: Carroll is pissed, and I think he's determined to make 572 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: this team into a winner without Russell Wilson and Gino 573 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: Smith played pretty well last year when he got thrust 574 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: into Sears. Remember they were chanting his name on the 575 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: Thursday night game against the Rants. He lost by three 576 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: to the Steelers, lost by three to the Saints, beat 577 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: the Jaguars, blew them out. He was twenty to twenty four, 578 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, Russell Wilson's good to 579 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: go again after Gino Smith goes twenty for twenty four. 580 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: I think Pete Carroll is enamored with the idea of 581 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: showing the world run game defense and Gino Smith is 582 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: good enough to win. Man, if I'm going to get 583 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: back at Russell Wilson, I think I'll have a little 584 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: better AMMO than Gino Smith. So welcoming back to team. 585 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: It's hey Thursday night the schedule comes out. One of 586 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: those games is Denver at Seattle. That is going to 587 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 1: be a hell of a night when that happens. I'm 588 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: predicting Week four, maybe Sunday Night Football, we see Denver 589 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: at Seattle, just like Tommy going back to New England 590 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,239 Speaker 1: last year. That will be a hell of a night. 591 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: And our Christmas lineup is that already set. The game 592 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: wasn't that leaked? The well, it wasn't leaked. What they're 593 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,959 Speaker 1: doing is they're announcing every day one of the networks 594 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: is announcing one of their games. Did they CBS announced 595 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: that they've got Broncos Rams in that four thirty pm 596 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: Eastern slot on Christmas is gonna be three games on 597 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:56,719 Speaker 1: Christmas Day, Fox at one, then CBS, and then an 598 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: NBC game that night. But Dan, I got an idea 599 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: for the NFL. I haven't yet. I talked about this earlier. 600 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: Instead of dropping all eighteen weeks on Thursday night and 601 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: with these little piecemeal here's a game, here's, here's a 602 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: game there, why not take over the whole week and 603 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: do the first four weeks of the season Monday, the 604 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 1: next four weeks Tuesday, the next four weeks Wednesday, and 605 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: then the final six weeks Thursday. Instead of dropping it 606 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: all at once, really piss off baseball, basketball and hockey 607 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: and commandeer the whole week. What if you did eighteen 608 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 1: days with eighteen weeks? Could I could sign off for that? 609 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: I think it a little At a certain point it 610 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: gets a little old. I say, take a week, Just 611 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,959 Speaker 1: take a week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and I bet 612 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: it's moving in that direction. You see their understanding there's 613 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: benefit in a game here, a game there, instead of 614 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: all two hundred and seventy two getting announced at once. Yeah, 615 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 1: I think it gets watered down where you're going, wait, 616 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: week what and you're trying to keep an eye on 617 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 1: what's going on, and a lot of times when we 618 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: look at the schedule release, it's how many road games 619 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: in a row. How do we end our season? Toughest 620 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 1: games are going to be bye week. After the bye week, 621 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: you know the strategy behind that. It's not just you know, 622 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,879 Speaker 1: here's the schedule. It's oh my gosh, we got back 623 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: to back conference games. Or we go West Coast, then 624 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 1: back east, then we go West Coast again. Those are 625 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: the tricky elements that I always keep an eye on. Mike. 626 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: It's always great to talk to you. Good luck with 627 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,319 Speaker 1: the book. I know it's doing well. It's Playmakers. It's 628 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 1: available wherever books are sold.

They have break in protection. I 634 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: don't know how many home security systems have that, but 635 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: outside forces trying to get into steal what's yours and 636 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: Simply Safe told me about a customer named Terry away 637 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: for the weekend or daughter's wedding. Morning of the wedding, 638 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: got a call from Simply Saves twenty four seven Professional 639 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 1: monitoring center. They let her know our system had detected 640 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: water in the basement.

Simply Safe detected 643 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: the water just moments after the leaking had started. After 644 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:17,280 Speaker 1: talking to Simply Save, Terry called her neighbors quickly turned 645 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: the water off to her home before the flooding got bad. 646 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 1: Simply Safe is there for you.

Yeah? Can we actually have a 670 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: couple going right now? Okay? We went with would you 671 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 1: rather work inside or outside? We also went with would 672 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 1: you rather we have two options? Okay, Option A whin 673 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: MVP and get criticized by the team that got bounced 674 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: from the playoffs early, or Option B still be in 675 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,040 Speaker 1: the playoffs and finish second in the MVP voting. It 676 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 1: feels like Joe l Embiad is going to get more 677 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: publicity not winning the MVP then, and the Joker's going 678 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 1: to get a lot of criticism because if embiid plays well, 679 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,879 Speaker 1: if they happen to turn this series around and beat 680 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: the Miami Heat. I think Miami's favored by three tonight 681 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: against the seventy six ers. But you know, the Joker 682 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: is not going to win it next year because the 683 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: voters are going to go, you know, well, they bowed out. 684 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: You know, he's got his two like Yannis. You could 685 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,720 Speaker 1: have given it to Jannis this year. But hey, here's 686 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: another story that you want to tell. You know, a 687 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: lot of people thought Luca I just didn't think his 688 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: team was going to be good enough. But if we're 689 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: looking at the Joker and giving him the MVP for 690 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: a sixth place team, why am I not doing it 691 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 1: for Luca? And does it just come down to the 692 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:53,240 Speaker 1: guy who's doing more with less and has great stats, 693 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: Because that's what the Joker did, and if that's the case, 694 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,439 Speaker 1: Luca did the same with the Dallas Maverick. They didn't 695 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: have injuries, but they don't have a lot. I mean, 696 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: that's not a talented team. They play well, but if 697 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 1: you look at Jalen Brunson, Spencer Dinwiddie, those aren't great 698 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 1: second options or third options. They're third options, not second options. 699 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: All right?

I don't know why I'm emphasizing that half. 705 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: Maybe I have shortness of breath.

He's averaging nineteen 707 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,720 Speaker 1: point eight points this postseason.

Okay, my 729 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 1: worst of the weekend. This is a story that's really 730 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:21,760 Speaker 1: been troubling me all morning. Brazilian defender Marcello was dropped 731 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: from the leone first team due to continuous farting and 732 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 1: laughing in the dressing room, sources have told ESPN. Thirty 733 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 1: four year old was expelled from the senior squad following 734 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 1: Leon's three zero defeat at the hands of all Jaire farting. 735 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: We're not allowed to fart in locker rooms anymore. That 736 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: dude would get promoted around here. Yeah, yeah, Paully, that 737 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 1: the reason they told him. I think it seems like 738 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: a violation HR violation. Well he was laughing and like, 739 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 1: I mean they had just gotten blown out, right, they 740 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:58,919 Speaker 1: just got absolutely destroyed.

Anything else? Even now, that just 743 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: really appealed to me.

I just saw Brady, Jordan and 747 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: Lebron all in the same place for Formula One. This 748 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 1: now has become a big deal. You have the Netflix TV. 749 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: If you look at a sport that I'm not gonna 750 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 1: say it turned around, it's just it opened our eyes 751 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: up to it. I mean, this is Formula one has 752 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: been around a long, long, long, long time, and it's 753 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 1: almost like the Premier League. It had been around a 754 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: long time. Twenty years ago Fox had the Premier League, 755 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,320 Speaker 1: NBC took it over and then we were in on 756 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 1: the stories, the coverage. It was a big deal. That 757 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: feels like that's what Formula one. It's taken decades to 758 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 1: become an over and make sensation. Now it's the new thing. 759 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:05,919 Speaker 1: Like ESPN's all in on Formula one. Nobody cared about 760 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 1: Formula one highlights. Having done Sports Center back in the 761 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: mid nineties, you would not have anything to do with 762 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: Formula one unless somebody had an accident. Now these guys 763 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 1: are stars, big deal and you could bait. What's the 764 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: show on Netflix? PAULI Drive to Survive?

It's it's a lifestyle that you know they're 770 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: they're selling you with Formula one. But you know what 771 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: Hamilton is done.
