<v Speaker 2>Welcome in What's Right with Nick wrid Episode one seventy

0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:48.960
<v Speaker 2>three ton to do today. Some quick scheduling notes. We

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:52.519
<v Speaker 2>are off on Tuesday, not because I'm not working, but

0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 2>because I'm actually working double duty on television.

0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:56.040
<v Speaker 3>On Tuesday.

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:59.760
<v Speaker 2>Thursday, one week from today will be Diorra's last show

0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:02.440
<v Speaker 2>before she goes off to college and I have an

0:01:02.440 --> 0:01:07.680
<v Speaker 2>existential crisis. And then a week from Tuesday we will

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:12.320
<v Speaker 2>be by Coastal on the What's Right Show because Demanse

0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 2>will be back as promised for our football shows. In fact,

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:22.280
<v Speaker 2>we will see a little sneak peak of Demonse's studio

0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:26.760
<v Speaker 2>in Los Angeles later in today's show, but before we

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.120
<v Speaker 2>even get to any of today's show, and before we

0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:32.040
<v Speaker 2>get to what missed, some very breaking news in the

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:36.880
<v Speaker 2>last ninety seconds that doesn't seem noteworthy, but it's noteworthy

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 2>to me, and I think it should be noteworthy if

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:42.360
<v Speaker 2>you're a New York Giants fan or an Arizona Cardinals fan.

0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:46.720
<v Speaker 2>The Arizona Cardinals just traded Isaiah Simmons to kind of

0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 2>do it all Swiss army knife. Is he a linebacker

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:53.639
<v Speaker 2>or a corner or a safety? Former top ten pick

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:57.440
<v Speaker 2>to the New York Giants for a seventh round pick.

0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:00.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't think that's enough value for Isaiah Simmons, a

0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 2>player I like a lot. I also think the Giants

0:02:04.520 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 2>and Wink Martindale will use him in exotic fun ways.

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.680
<v Speaker 2>And while I don't like the return on that for

0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:13.880
<v Speaker 2>the Cardinals, I do like the fact that they are

0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 2>really going all in on bottoming out so they can

0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.200
<v Speaker 2>get Caleb Williams. That part is smart. I think you

0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 2>could have gotten more for Isaiah Simmons. I like Isaiah

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Simmons now, he hasn't been a great pro. I loved

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.680
<v Speaker 2>him in college. I loved the pick that obviously has

0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 2>not worked out for them, a top ten pick being

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:36.040
<v Speaker 2>traded for a seventh rounder. But that's the breaking news

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:39.239
<v Speaker 2>that just happened a few minutes ago. Here is what

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:43.160
<v Speaker 2>missed the cut on today's show. Asia Wilson scores fifty

0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:49.359
<v Speaker 2>three ties, the WNBA record. She is spectacular. That Aces

0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:53.079
<v Speaker 2>team Van Gundy during the NBA playoffs said they could

0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:53.959
<v Speaker 2>go undefeated.

0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:55.839
<v Speaker 3>They didn't go undefeated.

0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 2>But they are twenty seven and four and it sure

0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 2>looks like an Aces Liberty WNBA final. We've been on

0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:05.040
<v Speaker 2>that collision course all year. Will Levis signs a disgusting

0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:09.520
<v Speaker 2>Mayo sponsorship, and Patrick Beverly once again calls me out

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 2>for something that was actually complimentary. I said on television,

0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:17.399
<v Speaker 2>I thought we'd see another Steph Curry before we see

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:21.600
<v Speaker 2>another Magic Johnson. Patrick Beverley says, lies are detected. We'll

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:24.520
<v Speaker 2>see another Steph Curry before we see another Magic Johnson

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:28.400
<v Speaker 2>for a couple of very obvious reasons. One is Steph

0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 2>Curry has inspired a generation of young people to try

0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:36.000
<v Speaker 2>to play like him. Another is it's been thirty years

0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:39.840
<v Speaker 2>since Magic retired. We haven't seen another Magic Johnson. And

0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:42.240
<v Speaker 2>all the people replying to the tweet saying, oh did

0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:45.000
<v Speaker 2>you not see Ben Simmons? Did you go watch some

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Magic Johnson?

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:46.720
<v Speaker 3>You children?

0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 2>And as far as we won't see another Patrick Beverley

0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.360
<v Speaker 2>again either, unless you have Satellite Dish to let you

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:54.800
<v Speaker 2>watch Russian basketball.

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 4>Now to the show.

0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:04.200
<v Speaker 2>So Trey Lance was not at practice yesterday as he

0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:11.680
<v Speaker 2>was demoted to the third string quarterback. And this story,

0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:17.040
<v Speaker 2>to me is so much bigger than whether or not

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Trey Lance is a bust. And this is where I

0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 2>want to start today's show, and I want to give

0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 2>a bit of a history on Kyle Shanahan and then

0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.480
<v Speaker 2>the blow by blow of the San Francisco forty nine

0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:40.000
<v Speaker 2>ers to explain why I personally find this story so unfathomable.

0:04:40.640 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 2>So Kyle Shanahan, obviously his dad's Mike Shanahan. He comes

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:50.880
<v Speaker 2>up with the Houston Texans, and those Houston Texans teams

0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:55.279
<v Speaker 2>had a clear ceiling. He was the offensive coordinator in

0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:57.719
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and eight and two thousand and nine, right

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 2>before I got to Houston, and they I had a

0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:04.960
<v Speaker 2>clear ceiling. Why because they had so much trouble getting

0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:10.520
<v Speaker 2>the quarterback position right. They eventually trade for Matt SHAWB

0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:15.160
<v Speaker 2>and under SHAWB, they have some level of success. They're

0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:17.839
<v Speaker 2>not great, but they at least get to a level

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:22.720
<v Speaker 2>of relevance. Kyle Shanahan then goes to Washington. Washington has

0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:26.719
<v Speaker 2>a clear ceiling, and then they trade all those assets

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 2>to go get Robert Griffin. He has a dynamic rookie season.

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:35.359
<v Speaker 2>They're a playoff team. They look like a legitimate I

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:38.720
<v Speaker 2>don't want to say contender, but a legitimate They're like, Wow,

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:42.919
<v Speaker 2>this is building something special. Robert then shreds his knee

0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 2>and they go back to mediocrity there and Kyle Shanahan

0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:50.520
<v Speaker 2>moves on. He's in Cleveland for a year where once

0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:54.760
<v Speaker 2>again the quarterback position is the ceiling on the team.

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:58.120
<v Speaker 2>And then he gets to Atlanta with Matt Ryan, the

0:05:58.160 --> 0:06:01.400
<v Speaker 2>best quarterback he's ever had the opportunity to work with,

0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:06.240
<v Speaker 2>and the Shanahan system plus a good Matt Ryan's not great,

0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:09.719
<v Speaker 2>but a good quarterback. A good quarterback plus the Shanahan

0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 2>system resulted in an MVP and a Super Bowl appearance.

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:18.760
<v Speaker 2>Now they blew the Super Bowl, but that was where

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.880
<v Speaker 2>Kyle Shanahan finally, for the first time in his career,

0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:26.120
<v Speaker 2>got to taste what his system with a plus quarterback

0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:30.400
<v Speaker 2>could be and its league MVP and a Super Bowl appearance.

0:06:31.080 --> 0:06:34.560
<v Speaker 2>So he then gets the job in San Francisco, their

0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:39.360
<v Speaker 2>quarterback position is an unmitigated disaster, and late in his

0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:44.599
<v Speaker 2>first year they trade for Jimmy Garoppolo and with Jimmy

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Garoppolo they have instant success. Now, the instant success is

0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 2>they win a bunch of games at the end of

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:58.440
<v Speaker 2>his first year. He then unfortunately blows out his knee

0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.800
<v Speaker 2>in week two of his second year. But then he's

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:06.160
<v Speaker 2>healthy and Jimmy Garoppolo, who is the definition of a

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:10.080
<v Speaker 2>mediocre quarterback, with that Shanahan system, they go to the

0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl. The next year, Jimmy gets hurt again, they

0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:21.600
<v Speaker 2>have a bad season, and the very next year, after

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy gets hurt again and they are sitting at number

0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:28.200
<v Speaker 2>twelve in the draft, they then have a decision, and

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:32.640
<v Speaker 2>the decision is do we want to stay here at

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 2>number twelve and draft a quarterback. Trey Lance could be

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:40.400
<v Speaker 2>there at twelve, Justin Fields could be there at twelve.

0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:44.200
<v Speaker 2>Mac Jones could be there at twelve and move off

0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:48.720
<v Speaker 2>of Jimmy because of the injuries, or do we think

0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:55.720
<v Speaker 2>we see a special quarterback that can allow Shanahan for

0:07:55.760 --> 0:08:02.680
<v Speaker 2>the first time since Matt Ryan in sixteen, have a

0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:08.520
<v Speaker 2>plus quarterback and see if this team can be a juggernaut.

0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:14.480
<v Speaker 2>They make the decision to trade up because they determine

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Shanahan and Lynch determined that while this system with this roster.

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 3>Can be good with almost.

0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Anyone playing quarterback, if we have an excellent quarterback, we

0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:35.400
<v Speaker 2>can be amazing. And they pay a massive premium three

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 2>first round picks move from twelve to three. We then learned,

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:42.040
<v Speaker 2>obviously they wanted to stand pat with Jimmy at quarterback,

0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.400
<v Speaker 2>they could have drafted Michael Parsons there. And if they

0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:46.559
<v Speaker 2>wanted to move off Jimmy at quarterback, they could have

0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 2>drafted Mac Jones there. And I'm not talking about at three.

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:53.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking about at twelve. They target Trey Lance. And

0:08:53.800 --> 0:09:00.120
<v Speaker 2>with targeting Trey Lance and his dozen career D two starts,

0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:04.760
<v Speaker 2>they say you're not going to play, You're not gonna

0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:08.040
<v Speaker 2>be our starter your rookie year. But he does get

0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 2>some action. He comes in a game his rookie season

0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:17.960
<v Speaker 2>in Week four, plays really well against Seattle. Jimmy had

0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:21.000
<v Speaker 2>gotten hurt. He had one hundred and sixty yards on

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:25.199
<v Speaker 2>eighteen attempts, two touchdowns, ran the ball well, It's like, okay,

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 2>maybe something's here. He then starts the next week against Arizona,

0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:34.160
<v Speaker 2>plays terribly, so he has one good game in coming

0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:37.439
<v Speaker 2>in and reserved one bad game. Jimmy's then healthy again.

0:09:38.960 --> 0:09:41.760
<v Speaker 2>Trey Lance sits his rookie season for the next ten weeks.

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:47.760
<v Speaker 2>Then week sixteen, Jimmy is out. Trey Lance starts against Houston,

0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:51.680
<v Speaker 2>albeit an obviously bad Houston team. Trey Lance plays really well,

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:54.960
<v Speaker 2>a couple touchdowns, two hundred and fifty yards, complete seventy

0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:58.720
<v Speaker 2>percent of his passes, runs the ball for thirty yards,

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:04.160
<v Speaker 2>and then goes back to the bench obviously because Jimmy's

0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:06.680
<v Speaker 2>healthy again, and they go to the NFC title game.

0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:08.720
<v Speaker 3>And after that.

0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:13.400
<v Speaker 2>First year of seeing Trey Lance, the San Francisco forty

0:10:13.480 --> 0:10:18.960
<v Speaker 2>nine ers, before the offseason even begins say publicly Jimmy

0:10:19.080 --> 0:10:23.520
<v Speaker 2>is done. Trey is our guy. They then try to

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:27.199
<v Speaker 2>trade Jimmy. They can't. They bring him back on a

0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:31.160
<v Speaker 2>lesser deal as the backup. They also draft Brock Purty

0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:34.880
<v Speaker 2>after passing on him eight different times, with the final

0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:38.760
<v Speaker 2>pick of the seventh round, and Trey Lance plays Week

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 2>one in a torrential downbour in Chicago and plays terribly.

0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:47.480
<v Speaker 2>And then in week two, three plays into the game

0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:51.840
<v Speaker 2>or six plays into the game, breaks his leg and

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:55.120
<v Speaker 2>can't practice obviously or play the rest of the year.

0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:01.200
<v Speaker 2>And then we get to this offseason and Brock purty understandably,

0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:04.920
<v Speaker 2>they're saying it's his job. Even though they spent all

0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:09.280
<v Speaker 2>that those resources on Trey. Brock was undefeated in games

0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:13.040
<v Speaker 2>he started and finished. They like what they have there,

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 2>They're giving him the job, so be it. That is reasonable.

0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:24.120
<v Speaker 2>And then in camp they bring in Sam Donald, who

0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:30.080
<v Speaker 2>has started around sixty games, has been awful at two

0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:34.840
<v Speaker 2>different stops, has as many touchdowns as interceptions, has a

0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.960
<v Speaker 2>bottom three NFL passer ratings since coming into the league.

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:43.440
<v Speaker 2>And they talk up Sam Donald as the next Steve

0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:49.000
<v Speaker 2>Young something they really said. And yesterday they anoint Sam

0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:53.720
<v Speaker 2>Donald the backup and basically say Trey Lance is done here.

0:11:56.920 --> 0:12:00.840
<v Speaker 2>So before I get to how unpressed in it that is,

0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:07.840
<v Speaker 2>I want everyone to understand the decision flow. The decision

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:14.800
<v Speaker 2>flow for Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch since Kyle got

0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:22.520
<v Speaker 2>to San Francisco has been we will trade significant assets

0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:27.480
<v Speaker 2>to get a difference maker at the quarterback position. We

0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:31.760
<v Speaker 2>will trade a second round pick and immediately give Jimmy

0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:37.520
<v Speaker 2>Garoppolo and his two career starts the biggest contract in

0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:42.439
<v Speaker 2>NFL history. We will then trade three first round picks

0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:47.920
<v Speaker 2>after making a super Bowl with Jimmy Garoppolo for another

0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:54.080
<v Speaker 2>quarterback we need to have a difference maker at that position.

0:12:55.200 --> 0:13:03.080
<v Speaker 2>We will then throw away with no return that player

0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:10.560
<v Speaker 2>after four career starts, after two full off seasons with

0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:14.079
<v Speaker 2>the team, one off season good enough to be named

0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:18.480
<v Speaker 2>the starter, the other offseason bad enough to be essentially

0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:23.000
<v Speaker 2>off the roster. Throw him away, not for Brock Purdy,

0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:29.560
<v Speaker 2>but for Sam Darnold. And now maybe the answer is

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Trey Lance is simply that bad. That could be the answer.

0:13:34.760 --> 0:13:38.760
<v Speaker 2>What I am trying to tell you is he would

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:44.600
<v Speaker 2>have to be worse than every first round quarterback drafted

0:13:45.480 --> 0:13:50.120
<v Speaker 2>in the last thirty years for this to be justified.

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Because I went through it, and I'm gonna give it

0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:57.600
<v Speaker 2>to you right now. The biggest busts that we think

0:13:57.640 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 2>of over the last thirty years in the NFL, and

0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:09.880
<v Speaker 2>how much of a rope they got. Ryan Leaf started

0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:14.800
<v Speaker 2>twenty I'm started eighteen games with the San Diego Chargers.

0:14:15.840 --> 0:14:27.400
<v Speaker 2>Achilles Smith started seventeen games with the Cincinnati Bengals. Tim

0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Couch started fifty nine games with the Cleveland Browns. Joey

0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Harrington started two full regular seasons and a total.

0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:43.920
<v Speaker 4>Of twelve listen, what is that?

0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:53.920
<v Speaker 2>Fifty five games with the Detroit Lions. Patrick Ramsey remember him?

0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:55.040
<v Speaker 3>He started?

0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:58.160
<v Speaker 2>He was a late first round pick. Twenty four starts

0:14:58.160 --> 0:14:58.960
<v Speaker 2>with Washington.

0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:00.960
<v Speaker 4>J P.

0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:06.280
<v Speaker 2>Lossman, a late first round pick. Thirty three starts with Buffalo.

0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Jason Campbell, a mid first round pick. Fifty two starts

0:15:13.000 --> 0:15:20.680
<v Speaker 2>with Washington. Matt Liner, a mid first round pick. Seventeen

0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:26.080
<v Speaker 2>starts with Arizona. Brady Quinn, a late first round pick.

0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Twelve starts with Cleveland. Tim Tebow a late first round pick.

0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:38.280
<v Speaker 2>Fourteen starts with Denver. Jake Locker, an early first round

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 2>pick twenty three, starts with Tennessee. Blaine Gabbert, an early

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:49.480
<v Speaker 2>first round pick. Twenty seven starts with Jacksonville. Christian Ponder

0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:55.960
<v Speaker 2>thirty six starts with Minnesota. E j Manuel seventeen starts

0:15:55.960 --> 0:16:02.840
<v Speaker 2>with Buffalo. Johnny Manzelle eight starts with Cleveland.

0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:07.280
<v Speaker 3>Josh Rosen.

0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:14.200
<v Speaker 2>Sixteen star I'm sorry thirteen starts with Arizona, Zach Wilson

0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:17.800
<v Speaker 2>twenty two starts with the Jets.

0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:19.480
<v Speaker 4>There is.

0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:27.120
<v Speaker 2>One guy since Jim Drunken Miller who has gotten as

0:16:27.160 --> 0:16:31.320
<v Speaker 2>short of a leash as Trey Lance. Paxton Lynch in Denver,

0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:36.040
<v Speaker 2>who was a late first round pick, got four starts,

0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:42.280
<v Speaker 2>was awful across the board, with nothing redeeming from any

0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:45.800
<v Speaker 2>of them. Trey Lance was third pick of the draft.

0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:51.520
<v Speaker 2>So I am not saying that he has to start over,

0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:59.120
<v Speaker 2>uh brock perty. What I am saying unequivocally is this,

0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:05.920
<v Speaker 2>if you draft trade up to draft a D two

0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:10.000
<v Speaker 2>player who did not even play his last year of

0:17:10.040 --> 0:17:15.000
<v Speaker 2>college football, see enough from him in your building as

0:17:15.040 --> 0:17:18.840
<v Speaker 2>a rookie to get rid of want try to get

0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:23.400
<v Speaker 2>rid of Jimmy Garoppolo and anoint him your starter. He

0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:28.600
<v Speaker 2>then plays a game and less than a quarter and

0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:33.440
<v Speaker 2>breaks his leg, and now you're ready to cut bait entirely.

0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:41.000
<v Speaker 2>You don't know what you're doing. Your quarterback evaluation process

0:17:42.040 --> 0:17:48.480
<v Speaker 2>is irrevocably broken. And the idea that you now have

0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:53.679
<v Speaker 2>simply discovered gold and Brock Birdie, maybe you did, But

0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:59.280
<v Speaker 2>as I said on television yesterday, if you drive your

0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.920
<v Speaker 2>car a one hundred miles an hour off a cliff,

0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:08.840
<v Speaker 2>survive the crash and land next to buried treasure, and

0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:13.440
<v Speaker 2>become wildly wealthy. You don't get credit for that. You're

0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:19.320
<v Speaker 2>not a genius for that. It was an idiotic, indefensible

0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:25.119
<v Speaker 2>process that you ended up somehow lucking out on. And

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:30.720
<v Speaker 2>I do not think mister irrelevant coming off. Tommy John

0:18:30.840 --> 0:18:36.320
<v Speaker 2>Surgery is going to be the player that the Niners

0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:41.679
<v Speaker 2>think he can be. And I know Sam Darnald is

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:48.320
<v Speaker 2>not anyone savior. And if you two years ago loved

0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:51.200
<v Speaker 2>Trey Lance enough to trade up for him, and one

0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:54.240
<v Speaker 2>year ago loved him enough to name him your starter,

0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:58.600
<v Speaker 2>and today think he's worse than Sam Darnald, then you

0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:07.760
<v Speaker 2>don't know what you're doing. Moving on, Chris Jones hold

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:11.600
<v Speaker 2>out might last until week eight. I went on television

0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:14.960
<v Speaker 2>and said, this is great news. Everyone made fun of me.

0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:19.080
<v Speaker 2>I stand by it. As long as Chris Jones is

0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:23.560
<v Speaker 2>going to be back, the Chiefs are fine. As it happens,

0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:28.600
<v Speaker 2>all of the Chief's hardest games, except for the visit

0:19:28.640 --> 0:19:32.200
<v Speaker 2>to Royalty playing the Prince in week two, are after

0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:35.560
<v Speaker 2>week seven. All three of their divisional road games are

0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:39.120
<v Speaker 2>after week seven. The Bills game the Bengals game, the

0:19:39.119 --> 0:19:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Eagles game, the Dolphins game. Those are all after Week seven,

0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:48.840
<v Speaker 2>so the Chiefs will be fine. Also, I think Chris

0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:51.240
<v Speaker 2>Jones will be there for Week one. I think he'll

0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:54.560
<v Speaker 2>get a new contract the Chiefs want to. This is

0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 2>not a situation where the Chiefs don't want to pay him.

0:19:58.119 --> 0:20:00.600
<v Speaker 2>They've said they want to pay him. So it'd be

0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:02.560
<v Speaker 2>one thing that the Chiefs were like, listen, you're under contract,

0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:05.520
<v Speaker 2>you got to play for us. They want to pay him.

0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:08.520
<v Speaker 2>And once he missed the first day of training camp,

0:20:08.560 --> 0:20:10.520
<v Speaker 2>it was almost a fourgone conclusion he was going to

0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:13.400
<v Speaker 2>miss all of the days of training camp. Now would

0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:15.840
<v Speaker 2>I like him in camp, Sure, but I'm sure the

0:20:15.920 --> 0:20:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Niners would like Nick boson camp. Everyone expects Bosa to

0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 2>be on the Niners this year and Chris Jones to

0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:26.560
<v Speaker 2>be on the Chiefs. Now, does this impact their relationship

0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:27.600
<v Speaker 2>with Chris Jones?

0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:28.080
<v Speaker 4>Maybe?

0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:32.320
<v Speaker 2>Does this impact their ability to keep him long term? Possibly,

0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:35.960
<v Speaker 2>But the fact that Chris Jones has shown up to

0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:40.119
<v Speaker 2>I think it was the spis with the Chiefs. The

0:20:40.200 --> 0:20:42.240
<v Speaker 2>fact that he said he wants to win Defensive Player

0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:45.320
<v Speaker 2>of the Year, the fact that he is saying the

0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:49.320
<v Speaker 2>longest he would hold out is two months. I don't

0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:52.080
<v Speaker 2>think it's bad news for the Chiefs at all, and

0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:56.840
<v Speaker 2>I think they can weather those first seven games. Next

0:20:57.480 --> 0:21:01.199
<v Speaker 2>Aaron Rodgers and Hard Knocks, Randall Cobb was telling the

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:04.439
<v Speaker 2>receivers that if Rogers doesn't trust you, you won't throw you

0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:10.200
<v Speaker 2>the ball. Then Corey Davis retired. What does this mean

0:21:10.280 --> 0:21:13.600
<v Speaker 2>for the Packers. I'm sorry for the Jets. The producers

0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:21.200
<v Speaker 2>are asking, well, here's the thing, on.

0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:21.280
<v Speaker 3>Only throwing the receivers he trusts.

0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:26.320
<v Speaker 2>I understand that can work when you have Davante, when

0:21:26.320 --> 0:21:29.120
<v Speaker 2>you have a younger Randall Cobb, when you have Jordan Nelson,

0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:32.720
<v Speaker 2>when you have Greg Jennings, when you have totally new team,

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:38.199
<v Speaker 2>totally new teammates, young receivers. I don't know that that

0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:45.280
<v Speaker 2>is the definite right approach, but that is what it is.

0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:49.359
<v Speaker 2>My bigger takeaway there from that Hard Knocks clip was

0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:52.080
<v Speaker 2>not the he won't throw it to you if he

0:21:52.119 --> 0:21:59.359
<v Speaker 2>doesn't trust you. It was actually the it was Aaron

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:07.679
<v Speaker 2>doesn't like throwing interceptions, and that sounds like an obvious

0:22:07.720 --> 0:22:15.880
<v Speaker 2>good thing. I would argue Aaron's allergy to interceptions has

0:22:16.080 --> 0:22:23.440
<v Speaker 2>actually been a slight detriment I think that there are

0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:29.560
<v Speaker 2>times where and interception. There are times where interception literally

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:31.440
<v Speaker 2>is the worst thing quarterback can do in the red

0:22:31.560 --> 0:22:34.320
<v Speaker 2>zone or you know, on first and ten, things like that.

0:22:34.920 --> 0:22:39.120
<v Speaker 2>There are also times where the risk is worth the

0:22:39.200 --> 0:22:43.640
<v Speaker 2>reward for what a big play can do for your team.

0:22:44.400 --> 0:22:47.840
<v Speaker 2>And I do think it is noteworthy that we have

0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:56.280
<v Speaker 2>talked for years about how the most dangerous play in

0:22:56.320 --> 0:23:01.000
<v Speaker 2>the NFL is the Aaron Rodgers free play, because that's

0:23:01.080 --> 0:23:03.560
<v Speaker 2>when he does and now a lot of quarterbacks do this,

0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:06.320
<v Speaker 2>but follow me here. You get a team to jump

0:23:06.320 --> 0:23:09.280
<v Speaker 2>off sides, so even if you throw a pick, even

0:23:09.280 --> 0:23:11.479
<v Speaker 2>if the play goes terribly, he just gets wiped away

0:23:11.840 --> 0:23:16.600
<v Speaker 2>and he takes a chance. Obviously, Aaron throughout his career

0:23:16.920 --> 0:23:20.600
<v Speaker 2>has had a great deep ball, has been able to

0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:21.719
<v Speaker 2>make every throw.

0:23:23.080 --> 0:23:25.320
<v Speaker 3>And I do think maybe a few.

0:23:25.160 --> 0:23:32.760
<v Speaker 2>More risks, a few more chances could be good because

0:23:34.160 --> 0:23:37.639
<v Speaker 2>you are going to get some more big plays that

0:23:37.800 --> 0:23:41.520
<v Speaker 2>particularly we're lacking for the Packers last year, and the

0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:45.760
<v Speaker 2>Jets obviously been lacking their entire their entire run. I

0:23:45.800 --> 0:23:48.600
<v Speaker 2>think it is noteworthy, and again I'm not trying to

0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:52.080
<v Speaker 2>take a shot at Aaron here that I mean, he

0:23:52.119 --> 0:23:54.959
<v Speaker 2>has the lowest interception rate I think in NFL history.

0:23:55.880 --> 0:24:00.880
<v Speaker 2>Peyton Manning played seventeen years in the NFL. He had

0:24:00.920 --> 0:24:06.000
<v Speaker 2>double digit interceptions sixteen of them, and the one year

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:11.400
<v Speaker 2>he didn't he had nine. Patrick Mahomes has played five

0:24:11.480 --> 0:24:16.119
<v Speaker 2>years in the NFL. He's thrown double digit interceptions three

0:24:16.400 --> 0:24:24.040
<v Speaker 2>of those five. Tom Brady played twenty one years as

0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:31.320
<v Speaker 2>a starting quarterback. He had double digit interceptions one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,

0:24:31.480 --> 0:24:37.560
<v Speaker 2>nine twelve times of his twenty one years. Those are

0:24:37.600 --> 0:24:42.160
<v Speaker 2>the three greatest quarterbacks ever, Brady, Montana and Mahomes. I'm

0:24:42.200 --> 0:24:46.000
<v Speaker 2>sorry Brady Manning and Mahomes Montana. If I were to

0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:48.480
<v Speaker 2>look now, that is a different era. I'm not sure

0:24:48.520 --> 0:24:52.280
<v Speaker 2>it's totally fair, but I'll look at it. Montana had

0:24:52.320 --> 0:24:55.160
<v Speaker 2>double digit interceptions in.

0:24:56.720 --> 0:24:58.679
<v Speaker 3>Nine of his fifteen years.

0:25:00.320 --> 0:25:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Aaron it's been three years in his career, his first

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:09.040
<v Speaker 2>year as a starter, the year they won the Super Bowl,

0:25:09.840 --> 0:25:15.840
<v Speaker 2>and last year. And so I think that the allergy

0:25:15.880 --> 0:25:20.439
<v Speaker 2>to throwing picks can be good if you're getting on

0:25:20.520 --> 0:25:24.919
<v Speaker 2>the Josh Allen reckless scale. For Aaron this year, I

0:25:24.960 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 2>think a few more picks than his normal might not

0:25:28.080 --> 0:25:32.960
<v Speaker 2>be a bad thing. All right next. Steph said Luca

0:25:33.080 --> 0:25:37.080
<v Speaker 2>was up next. The producers say, how can Luca be

0:25:37.160 --> 0:25:39.280
<v Speaker 2>next if he can't even make the playoffs? All right,

0:25:39.600 --> 0:25:47.439
<v Speaker 2>this is where Lebron has spoiled all of you. It's

0:25:48.880 --> 0:25:54.320
<v Speaker 2>it's relatively normal for great, great players at some point

0:25:54.320 --> 0:25:57.600
<v Speaker 2>in their career to miss the playoffs. Kobe missed the

0:25:57.640 --> 0:26:01.480
<v Speaker 2>playoffs and the debt smack dab of his prime. Steph

0:26:01.560 --> 0:26:05.280
<v Speaker 2>missed the playoffs the two years prior to them winning

0:26:05.280 --> 0:26:07.520
<v Speaker 2>the most recent title. One year he was out most

0:26:07.560 --> 0:26:09.760
<v Speaker 2>of the year, fine the other year he was playing,

0:26:10.119 --> 0:26:14.920
<v Speaker 2>he missed the playoffs. Kg missed the playoffs in Minnesota.

0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:18.800
<v Speaker 2>Duncan never missed the playoffs. Obviously, it's part of his greatness.

0:26:19.080 --> 0:26:21.879
<v Speaker 2>Magic never missed the playoffs. It's part of his greatness.

0:26:22.040 --> 0:26:26.200
<v Speaker 2>Lebron never missed the playoffs up until the latter stage. Well,

0:26:26.280 --> 0:26:28.760
<v Speaker 2>that's not true. Lebron missed the playoffs the first two

0:26:28.840 --> 0:26:30.920
<v Speaker 2>years of his career when he's very young, and then

0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:34.240
<v Speaker 2>with the Lakers. But during the entire run of prime,

0:26:34.320 --> 0:26:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Lebron never missed the playoffs. Luca missing the playoffs one

0:26:38.000 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 2>year does not disqualify him from being up next. Now,

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:48.000
<v Speaker 2>I guess the reason Steph is saying Luca is up

0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:52.679
<v Speaker 2>next is because Jannis and Joker he's saying, are right now,

0:26:53.720 --> 0:26:58.280
<v Speaker 2>and Luca does have some up next competition. But let's

0:26:58.359 --> 0:27:03.720
<v Speaker 2>not forget please, that were a year removed, Luca dragging

0:27:03.800 --> 0:27:06.879
<v Speaker 2>a team that didn't have another top sixty player in

0:27:06.920 --> 0:27:10.960
<v Speaker 2>the league to the Western Conference finals. And last year,

0:27:11.320 --> 0:27:13.199
<v Speaker 2>for as much as we want to put on my

0:27:13.320 --> 0:27:18.680
<v Speaker 2>large adult Slovenian sons head, last year, Luca did average

0:27:18.800 --> 0:27:22.520
<v Speaker 2>thirty two nine to eight and was first team All NBA.

0:27:23.200 --> 0:27:26.639
<v Speaker 2>One of the craziest stats, by the way, in the

0:27:26.800 --> 0:27:31.440
<v Speaker 2>NBA is that Luka Doncic has as many first Team

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:37.000
<v Speaker 2>All NBA appearances as Steph Curry. Luca's been first Team

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:41.080
<v Speaker 2>All NBA four times. Steph's been first Team All NBA

0:27:41.560 --> 0:27:45.600
<v Speaker 2>four times. It seems impossible to be true, but you

0:27:45.680 --> 0:27:49.080
<v Speaker 2>can look it up. I promise you it's true. He

0:27:49.240 --> 0:27:53.560
<v Speaker 2>has four He's played in the league five years. He's

0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:56.520
<v Speaker 2>been first Team All NBA four of those five. All right,

0:27:56.600 --> 0:28:03.879
<v Speaker 2>last one, this sucks show might have to have his

0:28:04.000 --> 0:28:10.280
<v Speaker 2>second Tommy John surgery. Everybody is talking about what this

0:28:10.359 --> 0:28:14.439
<v Speaker 2>means for his contract and that obviously, I mean, this

0:28:14.480 --> 0:28:17.760
<v Speaker 2>could be I don't know who said it, but someone

0:28:17.840 --> 0:28:21.679
<v Speaker 2>tweeted his most expensive elbow injury ever. It also is

0:28:21.720 --> 0:28:25.000
<v Speaker 2>just devastating for baseball fans. It's devastating for show Hey.

0:28:25.480 --> 0:28:28.960
<v Speaker 2>This would be his second Tommy John surgery had another

0:28:29.000 --> 0:28:32.199
<v Speaker 2>one five years ago. The producers asked, sayes this mean

0:28:32.240 --> 0:28:36.119
<v Speaker 2>it's impossible to do what he's trying to do. Here's

0:28:36.160 --> 0:28:41.760
<v Speaker 2>the thing. I don't know enough about UCL injuries, but

0:28:42.040 --> 0:28:47.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't think, maybe I'm wrong, that him doing double

0:28:47.760 --> 0:28:51.120
<v Speaker 2>duty has anything to do with this. I don't think

0:28:51.160 --> 0:28:55.040
<v Speaker 2>the fact that he bats when he's not pitching led

0:28:55.040 --> 0:28:58.920
<v Speaker 2>to the elbow injury. I do think that there is

0:28:59.080 --> 0:29:03.360
<v Speaker 2>obviously an epidemic amongst throwing arm injuries in the modern

0:29:03.400 --> 0:29:06.520
<v Speaker 2>baseball player. My pal Jeff Passen wrote a whole book

0:29:06.520 --> 0:29:10.360
<v Speaker 2>about it. No one has figured it out, but I

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:15.160
<v Speaker 2>give show Hey credit man for I mean, this was

0:29:15.200 --> 0:29:19.040
<v Speaker 2>the ultimate bet on himself deal. But this is the

0:29:19.120 --> 0:29:22.479
<v Speaker 2>downside to it. I mean, this could be they were

0:29:22.480 --> 0:29:23.120
<v Speaker 2>talking about.

0:29:23.000 --> 0:29:23.800
<v Speaker 4>Him getting.

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Twelve years, eight hundred million dollars and the Angels obviously

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:34.880
<v Speaker 2>are just cursed. It would appear and for show Hey,

0:29:34.920 --> 0:29:39.760
<v Speaker 2>this is absolutely brutal, and I do wonder if this

0:29:39.880 --> 0:29:42.400
<v Speaker 2>means he just won't pitch anymore, if you'll just be

0:29:42.480 --> 0:29:44.400
<v Speaker 2>a hitter, and he's one of the three or four

0:29:44.400 --> 0:29:46.560
<v Speaker 2>best hitters in the sport anyway, some would argue he's

0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:49.080
<v Speaker 2>the best. I'm not sure what this means for him.

0:29:49.280 --> 0:29:51.280
<v Speaker 2>This is not my area of expertise. I know for

0:29:51.360 --> 0:29:56.480
<v Speaker 2>sports fans, Shoe Otani was absolutely mussy and this sucks

0:29:56.520 --> 0:30:00.000
<v Speaker 2>for them and sucks for him. It's a bad, bad name,

0:30:00.040 --> 0:30:03.200

<v Speaker 2>i mean night and day, building out a custom studio

0:31:08.320 --> 0:31:11.479
<v Speaker 2>on the other side of the country to match the

0:31:11.520 --> 0:31:16.440
<v Speaker 2>studio we have here at Trentage in Harlem in southern California,

0:31:16.520 --> 0:31:20.080
<v Speaker 2>on the beach where Demanse's living, just living the life,

0:31:20.680 --> 0:31:23.440
<v Speaker 2>and we are ready for a sneak preview of it.

0:31:24.320 --> 0:31:28.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's see Demonse from the West coast and it's like

0:31:28.520 --> 0:31:30.640
<v Speaker 2>eight in the morning out there, but he's a he's

0:31:30.720 --> 0:31:35.040
<v Speaker 2>a morning an early bird these days. Oh looking great,

0:31:35.920 --> 0:31:41.400
<v Speaker 2>how are you? I'm a great man, Demonse. For people

0:31:41.440 --> 0:31:45.240
<v Speaker 2>that don't know, this is his side gig. Demonse actually

0:31:45.240 --> 0:31:49.680
<v Speaker 2>has two side gigs. One is this. Can we say

0:31:49.720 --> 0:31:51.320
<v Speaker 2>what the other side gig is or do you want

0:31:51.320 --> 0:31:56.560
<v Speaker 2>to keep that under wraps? That's up to you.

0:31:56.200 --> 0:31:56.680
<v Speaker 6>Right now.

0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.400
<v Speaker 2>That's fair, That's what I thought, so that the so

0:32:00.320 --> 0:32:03.000
<v Speaker 2>is another. He has a couple side gigs. He also

0:32:03.040 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 2>has a full.

0:32:03.600 --> 0:32:06.000
<v Speaker 3>Time job he's doing.

0:32:06.160 --> 0:32:08.880
<v Speaker 2>He's a lot of stuff for FS one and for

0:32:09.040 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Fox in the production and research and all these things department.

0:32:12.480 --> 0:32:15.440
<v Speaker 2>He was actually telling me a story about work the

0:32:15.480 --> 0:32:18.160
<v Speaker 2>other day, about some of the work he was doing

0:32:18.600 --> 0:32:22.120
<v Speaker 2>and what then the channels it goes to after And

0:32:22.240 --> 0:32:25.520
<v Speaker 2>I was listening and I was interested, and then I

0:32:25.600 --> 0:32:28.680
<v Speaker 2>also realized, I have no idea how television shows get made.

0:32:29.040 --> 0:32:31.080
<v Speaker 2>Everything you were describing to me, you were like.

0:32:31.000 --> 0:32:32.080
<v Speaker 4>This happened, and that happened.

0:32:32.120 --> 0:32:34.360
<v Speaker 3>I was like, I honestly.

0:32:33.920 --> 0:32:35.000
<v Speaker 4>Don't know what you do.

0:32:35.600 --> 0:32:37.280
<v Speaker 2>I know you're like, you're like, oh, I'm doing some

0:32:37.320 --> 0:32:39.440
<v Speaker 2>stuff with tape. I don't really know what that is.

0:32:39.520 --> 0:32:41.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what it means, but you're doing great.

0:32:41.960 --> 0:32:44.120
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that talent life is different, man. You know, you

0:32:44.160 --> 0:32:46.600
<v Speaker 6>know a lot of stuff that goes online the scenes.

0:32:47.200 --> 0:32:48.280
<v Speaker 3>So I have no clue.

0:32:48.400 --> 0:32:52.400
<v Speaker 2>I just show up looking great, amazing opinions and all

0:32:52.440 --> 0:32:54.360
<v Speaker 2>these things show up on the screen and.

0:32:54.520 --> 0:32:55.760
<v Speaker 3>It's all you guys doing it.

0:32:55.800 --> 0:32:56.160
<v Speaker 4>Okay.

0:32:56.560 --> 0:32:59.800
<v Speaker 2>So, as a and this is a sneak preview also

0:33:00.000 --> 0:33:02.000
<v Speaker 2>a bit of a test, we're gonna see how the

0:33:02.040 --> 0:33:04.720
<v Speaker 2>audio sounds, making sure everything works. It sounds a little

0:33:04.760 --> 0:33:06.040
<v Speaker 2>echoee in my ear.

0:33:06.160 --> 0:33:06.640
<v Speaker 4>I hope it.

0:33:06.600 --> 0:33:09.560
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't for the actual audience, but that's not the Well,

0:33:09.680 --> 0:33:12.400
<v Speaker 2>this is why we're doing it here. But in honor

0:33:13.000 --> 0:33:17.200
<v Speaker 2>of Demonse being back, we're gonna do one topic together.

0:33:18.040 --> 0:33:20.520
<v Speaker 2>And I had all of the things that we could

0:33:20.640 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 2>choose from, and I was like, well, the US Open does.

0:33:23.880 --> 0:33:25.520
<v Speaker 3>Start here in New York pretty soon.

0:33:26.040 --> 0:33:29.920
<v Speaker 2>But Demonse does not like the tennis corner, and in fact,

0:33:29.960 --> 0:33:32.160
<v Speaker 2>the only thing I think he likes less than the

0:33:32.200 --> 0:33:37.360
<v Speaker 2>tennis corner is the golf corner. So with that said, Demonse,

0:33:37.880 --> 0:33:40.080
<v Speaker 2>I think we're talking golfers and gamblers.

0:33:40.400 --> 0:33:41.320
<v Speaker 3>Go right ahead some.

0:33:41.680 --> 0:33:45.120
<v Speaker 6>Time for a little special edition of Nick Makes It Right.

0:33:46.000 --> 0:33:49.080
<v Speaker 6>So John Rahm and Max Holmes said, spectators talking or

0:33:49.120 --> 0:33:53.200
<v Speaker 6>talking about gambling has become rampant on the tour, and

0:33:53.560 --> 0:33:56.520
<v Speaker 6>a gambler recently interfered with a pro am golfer because

0:33:56.520 --> 0:33:59.680
<v Speaker 6>of a bet. Uh, it's toime for Dick makes it Right.

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:03.200
<v Speaker 6>Is this a serious issue or should these pro athletes

0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:03.920
<v Speaker 6>stop complaining?

0:34:05.920 --> 0:34:06.040
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

0:34:06.160 --> 0:34:07.560
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a I mean, I don't know if

0:34:07.560 --> 0:34:10.080
<v Speaker 2>I would call it a serious issue, but I don't mind.

0:34:10.160 --> 0:34:14.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they're complaining. I think that there are.

0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:19.080
<v Speaker 2>I think the if there is, and this is gonna

0:34:19.080 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 2>be really hard for golf and tennis. Your two favorites

0:34:22.520 --> 0:34:29.279
<v Speaker 2>demons in particular, which is there is an expected and

0:34:29.520 --> 0:34:36.120
<v Speaker 2>understood decorum about noise during play. So like, if I

0:34:36.400 --> 0:34:40.000
<v Speaker 2>have a bet on Steph Kerr is six step out

0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:43.600
<v Speaker 2>of it on under twenty four and a half points

0:34:43.600 --> 0:34:47.040
<v Speaker 2>for Anthony Edwards, and he's at the free throw line

0:34:47.040 --> 0:34:49.839
<v Speaker 2>with a minute left, and I yell because I want

0:34:49.880 --> 0:34:53.520
<v Speaker 2>him to miss. He's used to that. People are always yelling,

0:34:53.560 --> 0:34:55.560
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean. That's not going to have

0:34:55.600 --> 0:35:01.759
<v Speaker 2>a tangible impact golfers and tennis players. You're silent while

0:35:01.800 --> 0:35:05.400
<v Speaker 2>they're actually playing. And that with a guy did shank

0:35:05.480 --> 0:35:08.560
<v Speaker 2>it in in the pro am Steph Curry won, a

0:35:08.640 --> 0:35:12.120
<v Speaker 2>guy shanked it on eighteen and the guy who yelled

0:35:12.320 --> 0:35:15.440
<v Speaker 2>had a bet against him. So I do think this

0:35:15.520 --> 0:35:19.080
<v Speaker 2>could actually be a problem in that guy's going out

0:35:19.080 --> 0:35:23.160
<v Speaker 2>there and trying to directly impact. Uh. You know, they're wagers,

0:35:23.480 --> 0:35:26.520
<v Speaker 2>and I know people have been gambling forever, but people

0:35:26.560 --> 0:35:30.799
<v Speaker 2>weren't gambling as regularly, and they certainly weren't gambling on

0:35:31.280 --> 0:35:34.240
<v Speaker 2>what I would call Nietzsch events is regularly Like golf,

0:35:34.440 --> 0:35:36.719
<v Speaker 2>people were always gambling on football and basketball.

0:35:36.960 --> 0:35:38.000
<v Speaker 3>So go ahead, your take.

0:35:38.360 --> 0:35:41.600
<v Speaker 6>You got to call the hotline if you're out here

0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:47.120
<v Speaker 6>betting golf. In my opinion, I say that the golfers

0:35:47.320 --> 0:35:51.360
<v Speaker 6>should just do better under pressure. In my opinion, you

0:35:51.440 --> 0:35:56.640
<v Speaker 6>want just go ahead, go ahead, but one guy screams

0:35:56.719 --> 0:35:59.000
<v Speaker 6>and and you shank it. Hey, dude, be better. I mean,

0:35:59.040 --> 0:36:00.800
<v Speaker 6>you're you're a pro am golf off for a reason.

0:36:01.200 --> 0:36:04.400
<v Speaker 6>But you know, I get things have always gone a

0:36:04.400 --> 0:36:07.160
<v Speaker 6>certain way. But uh, I don't know, man.

0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:10.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they're gonna change it with golf. I

0:36:10.719 --> 0:36:13.360
<v Speaker 2>think golf and tennis it's still gonna be silent.

0:36:13.680 --> 0:36:13.919
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:36:13.960 --> 0:36:16.719
<v Speaker 2>At tennis, they'll just replay the point. There's a you

0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:20.040
<v Speaker 2>gotta look it up. There's an unbelievable video from about

0:36:20.040 --> 0:36:22.800
<v Speaker 2>a week and a half ago of a tennis match

0:36:23.320 --> 0:36:26.640
<v Speaker 2>and mid point, the person in charge of the end

0:36:26.719 --> 0:36:30.680
<v Speaker 2>stadium music all of a sudden turns on Cotton Eye Joe,

0:36:31.440 --> 0:36:31.919
<v Speaker 2>Where did.

0:36:31.840 --> 0:36:33.839
<v Speaker 3>You come from? Where did you go? That song it is?

0:36:33.920 --> 0:36:38.879
<v Speaker 2>And both both players just stopped immediately, like we can't

0:36:38.920 --> 0:36:41.720
<v Speaker 2>be expected to play under these circumstances, and the umpire

0:36:41.840 --> 0:36:45.000
<v Speaker 2>was like replay the point, like everyone understood, like we're

0:36:45.040 --> 0:36:47.480
<v Speaker 2>not playing with Cotton Eye Joe in the background.

0:36:47.760 --> 0:36:50.920
<v Speaker 6>So that's the that's a different scenario. In my opinion,

0:36:50.960 --> 0:36:52.160
<v Speaker 6>it's a lot different.

0:36:53.360 --> 0:36:57.080
<v Speaker 2>One guy screen, different scenario, one guy streaming versus the thing.

0:36:57.400 --> 0:36:58.600
<v Speaker 4>But I'm golf.

0:36:59.320 --> 0:37:08.320
<v Speaker 2>I do think that they this could be a significant issue.

0:37:08.920 --> 0:37:11.120
<v Speaker 2>And I do think golf is going to have to

0:37:11.200 --> 0:37:15.400
<v Speaker 2>determine whether or not you are going to get a

0:37:15.480 --> 0:37:24.160
<v Speaker 2>do over if someone yells in your backswing, because it absolutely.

0:37:23.040 --> 0:37:24.240
<v Speaker 3>Impacts these guys.

0:37:25.080 --> 0:37:29.600
<v Speaker 2>And while it always was possible, but back when Tiger

0:37:29.920 --> 0:37:36.120
<v Speaker 2>was apex Tiger, people always wanted to be the first

0:37:36.160 --> 0:37:39.560
<v Speaker 2>one to yell get in the hole, like make it

0:37:39.640 --> 0:37:40.440
<v Speaker 2>on a drive or.

0:37:40.440 --> 0:37:41.040
<v Speaker 3>Something like that.

0:37:41.560 --> 0:37:46.520
<v Speaker 2>And occasionally someone would jump the gun a bit and

0:37:46.640 --> 0:37:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Tiger would get furious because he'd flinch a bit in

0:37:50.239 --> 0:37:53.279
<v Speaker 2>his swing and he'd shank it. And so but that

0:37:53.480 --> 0:37:56.279
<v Speaker 2>you really didn't have to worry about it because it

0:37:56.360 --> 0:37:59.040
<v Speaker 2>was just a one off thing. If people are all

0:37:59.080 --> 0:38:03.960
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden gambling at these events and have a chance, like,

0:38:04.000 --> 0:38:06.120
<v Speaker 2>who cares if I get thrown out, if it means

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:08.880
<v Speaker 2>I win my bet, if I can force you, I

0:38:09.640 --> 0:38:10.680
<v Speaker 2>think it's a real thing.

0:38:11.040 --> 0:38:14.080
<v Speaker 6>I know you just got a question, So I know

0:38:14.200 --> 0:38:16.440
<v Speaker 6>Steph did a lot of golfing stuff over the summer.

0:38:16.640 --> 0:38:20.000
<v Speaker 6>Was was that a silent golfing event? Or is Steph

0:38:20.080 --> 0:38:23.080
<v Speaker 6>Curry like the best golfer ever? No?

0:38:23.320 --> 0:38:25.880
<v Speaker 2>So that, well, Steph is great this event where this happened,

0:38:25.880 --> 0:38:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Steph won it. Steph is a could be a pro golfer.

0:38:31.120 --> 0:38:35.160
<v Speaker 2>It's you are allowed to make noise after the swing,

0:38:35.640 --> 0:38:40.760
<v Speaker 2>and people just not at once they've approached the ball

0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:44.200
<v Speaker 2>and are doing their practice swing and the actual swing.

0:38:44.560 --> 0:38:45.439
<v Speaker 3>And that's why I was saying.

0:38:45.440 --> 0:38:48.160
<v Speaker 2>What happened to Tiger is people wanted to make noise

0:38:48.239 --> 0:38:50.560
<v Speaker 2>the moment he hit it, and.

0:38:50.440 --> 0:38:52.160
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes people would jump the gun.

0:38:52.640 --> 0:38:55.440
<v Speaker 2>That what happened to this guy was as soon as

0:38:55.480 --> 0:38:59.239
<v Speaker 2>he was about to hit it, someone intentionally yelled to

0:38:59.400 --> 0:39:02.240
<v Speaker 2>shock him, and he shanked it and lost the tournament.

0:39:02.600 --> 0:39:05.240
<v Speaker 2>All right, listen, you have to get to your actual job.

0:39:05.560 --> 0:39:08.759
<v Speaker 2>This is great golf discussion. I can't wait. You better,

0:39:08.800 --> 0:39:12.520
<v Speaker 2>by the way, you better be ready. In twelve days,

0:39:12.880 --> 0:39:15.240
<v Speaker 2>we'll be will be at I think the semi finals

0:39:15.280 --> 0:39:20.960
<v Speaker 2>of the US Open. Oh boy, Alcarez an adult, Alcarez, Djokovic,

0:39:21.440 --> 0:39:26.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, I'm going to it. You're your play. Uncle

0:39:26.320 --> 0:39:29.160
<v Speaker 2>karm is staying with me. He's coming to New York

0:39:29.200 --> 0:39:30.799
<v Speaker 2>so we can go to the US Open together. He's

0:39:30.800 --> 0:39:31.920
<v Speaker 2>staying in your room.

0:39:32.640 --> 0:39:35.839
<v Speaker 6>Huge, Huge, that's awesome, man, til karm I said, what's up.

0:39:36.120 --> 0:39:38.520
<v Speaker 6>It's gonna be unfortunate that I'm missing that great match.

0:39:38.920 --> 0:39:41.799
<v Speaker 6>I am in a golf league at work. I've yet

0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:44.560
<v Speaker 6>to play my first game, but I'm supposed to be

0:39:44.600 --> 0:39:47.400
<v Speaker 6>playing it here pretty soon. We just got to reserve

0:39:47.440 --> 0:39:52.120
<v Speaker 6>a first Yeah. Uh no, we're just I might go

0:39:52.280 --> 0:39:55.040
<v Speaker 6>to top Golf this weekend, and you know, go to time.

0:39:55.840 --> 0:39:58.640
<v Speaker 2>I think you'd love top golf, first of all, and

0:39:58.760 --> 0:40:03.560
<v Speaker 2>second of all, frustrated, I think you'll naturally be pretty good.

0:40:04.400 --> 0:40:05.080
<v Speaker 4>You have really the.

0:40:05.120 --> 0:40:10.560
<v Speaker 2>HANDI coordination, You're tall and strong. I just I think

0:40:10.680 --> 0:40:15.000
<v Speaker 2>you're naturally going to pick up on it pretty quickly.

0:40:15.800 --> 0:40:18.080
<v Speaker 2>Uh And I think you'll be a pretty good golfer.

0:40:18.120 --> 0:40:21.359
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, get to work. There's demons. He's back

0:40:21.400 --> 0:40:24.879
<v Speaker 2>in twelve days. We now play, thank you. We now

0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:29.000
<v Speaker 2>play a new game called the Deciding Factor, where I'm

0:40:29.080 --> 0:40:33.640
<v Speaker 2>going to make a case four against a teamer player

0:40:33.640 --> 0:40:36.680
<v Speaker 2>and what their X factor is. The Miami Dolphins. Miami

0:40:36.719 --> 0:40:39.080
<v Speaker 2>made it the playoffs last year despite injuries at quarterback.

0:40:39.320 --> 0:40:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Will they be able to take the next step this year?

0:40:41.800 --> 0:40:42.440
<v Speaker 4>Why why not?

0:40:42.560 --> 0:40:45.080
<v Speaker 2>And what's their X factor? This one's very very simple.

0:40:45.520 --> 0:40:49.560
<v Speaker 2>Why they could is Vic fangio on is the defensive

0:40:49.600 --> 0:40:53.200
<v Speaker 2>coordinator and Tua stays healthy. Why they wouldn't is if

0:40:53.280 --> 0:40:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Tua gets banged up again and the X factor is

0:40:57.000 --> 0:41:01.839
<v Speaker 2>twas health. That's very simple. I mean, the Dolphins are

0:41:01.960 --> 0:41:07.600
<v Speaker 2>not a difficult team to handicap. It's whether or not

0:41:08.360 --> 0:41:11.759
<v Speaker 2>Tua can play sixteen to seventeen games, or hell call

0:41:11.800 --> 0:41:15.080
<v Speaker 2>it if you could play fourteen games McDaniels, I think

0:41:15.120 --> 0:41:18.120
<v Speaker 2>an excellent offensive mind. We know how many weapons they

0:41:18.160 --> 0:41:21.400
<v Speaker 2>have on offense. I know Jalen Ramsey's out now for

0:41:21.440 --> 0:41:24.399
<v Speaker 2>them defensively, but that defense still got better. And Vic

0:41:24.440 --> 0:41:29.280
<v Speaker 2>Fangio's great. If two is healthy, they win that division.

0:41:30.600 --> 0:41:32.759
<v Speaker 2>And I don't think two is great, but I don't

0:41:32.800 --> 0:41:34.640
<v Speaker 2>think he has to be great. If he's healthy, they

0:41:34.680 --> 0:41:37.279
<v Speaker 2>win that division, all right. Next, Trevor Lawrence to win

0:41:37.400 --> 0:41:38.920
<v Speaker 2>MVPs plus fifteen hundred?

0:41:39.000 --> 0:41:40.880
<v Speaker 4>Will he win it? Why? Why not?

0:41:41.040 --> 0:41:42.320
<v Speaker 3>And what is the X factor?

0:41:42.920 --> 0:41:47.560
<v Speaker 2>Why he would win it? Is because they're gonna win

0:41:47.640 --> 0:41:51.000
<v Speaker 2>thirteen games and he's gonna be awesome and they're gonna

0:41:51.400 --> 0:41:54.880
<v Speaker 2>have a gaudy record. Why he wouldn't win it is

0:41:54.960 --> 0:41:58.120
<v Speaker 2>if that defense is just too bad for them to

0:41:58.160 --> 0:42:02.480
<v Speaker 2>win thirteen games. If the defense that they've piled so

0:42:02.640 --> 0:42:04.759
<v Speaker 2>many top picks.

0:42:04.400 --> 0:42:05.919
<v Speaker 3>Into is.

0:42:08.120 --> 0:42:11.920
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't come around where they you know, they win

0:42:12.080 --> 0:42:14.880
<v Speaker 2>ten games and he can't win MVP. The X factor

0:42:15.280 --> 0:42:18.520
<v Speaker 2>is twenty and up is if the Chiefs go undefeated,

0:42:18.560 --> 0:42:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes is winning MVP, and the Chiefs might go undefeated.

0:42:22.320 --> 0:42:22.719
<v Speaker 4>All right?

0:42:22.880 --> 0:42:24.960
<v Speaker 2>The Lions, the Lions or this year's Turney pick to

0:42:24.960 --> 0:42:27.000
<v Speaker 2>make some noise in the NFC. Will they why?

0:42:27.400 --> 0:42:27.759
<v Speaker 4>Why not?

0:42:27.840 --> 0:42:28.920
<v Speaker 3>And what's their X factor?

0:42:29.400 --> 0:42:34.200
<v Speaker 4>Why they would is the week.

0:42:34.120 --> 0:42:36.160
<v Speaker 3>NFC and.

0:42:37.440 --> 0:42:42.759
<v Speaker 2>The Lions young players.

0:42:44.000 --> 0:42:44.640
<v Speaker 3>I want to make.

0:42:44.560 --> 0:42:46.719
<v Speaker 2>Sure I explain this the way I mean to explain it.

0:42:47.040 --> 0:42:51.680
<v Speaker 2>They drafted non premium positions, but the best or the

0:42:51.760 --> 0:42:54.800
<v Speaker 2>second best guy at every position. So they might get

0:42:55.040 --> 0:42:58.800
<v Speaker 2>like inside linebacker, running back, safety, they might get instant

0:42:58.880 --> 0:43:02.919
<v Speaker 2>impact from the rookie Clay. Why they wouldn't, No, no, no,

0:43:03.440 --> 0:43:04.239
<v Speaker 2>that's not the why not.

0:43:04.800 --> 0:43:05.920
<v Speaker 4>That was the why they would.

0:43:07.160 --> 0:43:11.839
<v Speaker 2>Why they wouldn't is Jared Goff goes back to being

0:43:11.880 --> 0:43:14.160
<v Speaker 2>the Jared Goff that we had seen throughout most of

0:43:14.160 --> 0:43:17.440
<v Speaker 2>his career prior to last year. The X factor is

0:43:17.520 --> 0:43:23.560
<v Speaker 2>the offensive line, because when Golf is protected, he's good,

0:43:24.000 --> 0:43:28.000
<v Speaker 2>but the moment he's pressured, he turns into a pumpkin.

0:43:28.520 --> 0:43:31.640
<v Speaker 2>They need great offensive line play more than just about

0:43:31.640 --> 0:43:34.400
<v Speaker 2>any team in the league. All right, next Baltimore. The

0:43:34.480 --> 0:43:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Ravens seem to have suddenly uncertainty this offseason.

0:43:36.840 --> 0:43:38.360
<v Speaker 4>Given Lamar everything he wanted.

0:43:38.360 --> 0:43:40.440
<v Speaker 2>New weapons, all that money, will Lamar look like an

0:43:40.520 --> 0:43:41.279
<v Speaker 2>MVP again?

0:43:41.360 --> 0:43:41.600
<v Speaker 4>Why?

0:43:41.640 --> 0:43:43.120
<v Speaker 3>Why not? What's their X factor?

0:43:43.480 --> 0:43:47.160
<v Speaker 2>Why he would is Todd Munkin and the new weapons,

0:43:47.760 --> 0:43:50.240
<v Speaker 2>and all of a sudden, he's in a pro style

0:43:50.280 --> 0:43:52.359
<v Speaker 2>offense like he was at Louisville.

0:43:51.880 --> 0:43:53.840
<v Speaker 4>Where he crushed. That's why he would.

0:43:54.360 --> 0:43:59.760
<v Speaker 2>Why he wouldn't is instead of getting better as a passer,

0:44:00.360 --> 0:44:07.240
<v Speaker 2>he's maybe regressing as a passer and he keeps missing

0:44:07.320 --> 0:44:13.160
<v Speaker 2>some of those easy layups. The X factor is how

0:44:13.200 --> 0:44:17.560
<v Speaker 2>good are the receivers really? Odell a year off another

0:44:17.640 --> 0:44:21.719
<v Speaker 2>knee injury, a rookie, and Zay Flowers. Will Bateman ever

0:44:21.760 --> 0:44:24.520
<v Speaker 2>take the leap? You know how we spent a lot

0:44:24.520 --> 0:44:28.000
<v Speaker 2>of resources on the receivers, But how good are they really?

0:44:28.280 --> 0:44:30.440
<v Speaker 2>All Right, we'll go to the Rams now, The Rams

0:44:30.520 --> 0:44:33.279
<v Speaker 2>super Bowl two years ago. Everyone's written them off. Could

0:44:33.320 --> 0:44:35.560
<v Speaker 2>the Rams be due for a bounce back season?

0:44:35.719 --> 0:44:36.040
<v Speaker 4>Why?

0:44:37.760 --> 0:44:39.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:44:40.200 --> 0:44:43.560
<v Speaker 2>It's Rams bouncing back seems impossible.

0:44:44.040 --> 0:44:46.200
<v Speaker 3>I I can't.

0:44:46.280 --> 0:44:49.000
<v Speaker 2>There's no way. Why why not? This one will be

0:44:49.080 --> 0:44:51.600
<v Speaker 2>very simple? Why there is no reason?

0:44:51.640 --> 0:44:52.759
<v Speaker 4>Why? Why not?

0:44:53.400 --> 0:44:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Because of all because of the roster, and the X

0:44:57.000 --> 0:45:01.440
<v Speaker 2>factor is whether or not they are bad enough early

0:45:02.320 --> 0:45:05.439
<v Speaker 2>to turn the ship in the other direction and tank

0:45:05.520 --> 0:45:10.360
<v Speaker 2>for Caleb. Nothing would be smarter for the Los Angeles

0:45:10.440 --> 0:45:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Rams then to find a way to throw the games

0:45:16.680 --> 0:45:19.640
<v Speaker 2>against the Arizona Cardinals who are trying to tank for

0:45:19.719 --> 0:45:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Caleb themselves. All right, next, Baker Mayfield won the starting

0:45:23.160 --> 0:45:26.759
<v Speaker 2>job in Tampa. I'm still Baker's largest shareholder. Could the

0:45:26.760 --> 0:45:27.919
<v Speaker 2>Bucks have some run left?

0:45:27.960 --> 0:45:28.600
<v Speaker 4>Why? Why not?

0:45:28.680 --> 0:45:29.560
<v Speaker 3>What's their X factor?

0:45:29.880 --> 0:45:30.240
<v Speaker 4>Why?

0:45:30.680 --> 0:45:31.320
<v Speaker 3>The division?

0:45:32.440 --> 0:45:35.879
<v Speaker 2>And some of their top flight talent.

0:45:37.160 --> 0:45:39.240
<v Speaker 3>Good tackles or good.

0:45:39.040 --> 0:45:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Tackle I should say, good wide receivers, a couple impact

0:45:42.560 --> 0:45:43.520
<v Speaker 2>defensive players.

0:45:43.880 --> 0:45:44.359
<v Speaker 4>Why not?

0:45:45.680 --> 0:45:45.879
<v Speaker 6>Well?

0:45:45.960 --> 0:45:49.200
<v Speaker 2>The coach quarterback combo the Bulls Baker Combo. You know,

0:45:49.280 --> 0:45:51.360
<v Speaker 2>as much as I want to believe in Baker, you

0:45:51.360 --> 0:45:55.319
<v Speaker 2>know it's not exactly a proven coach quarterback combo. The

0:45:55.520 --> 0:46:00.040
<v Speaker 2>X factor is does anyone else in the division and

0:46:00.320 --> 0:46:03.839
<v Speaker 2>take a leap the Saints or the Falcons. I don't

0:46:03.840 --> 0:46:07.040
<v Speaker 2>think the Panthers can with Bryce Young, certainly not this year.

0:46:07.320 --> 0:46:12.160
<v Speaker 2>The Falcons could be good Man like good Ish. Bijon

0:46:12.400 --> 0:46:16.440
<v Speaker 2>is awesome, and the Saints are in or perpetually and

0:46:16.560 --> 0:46:20.480
<v Speaker 2>win now mode even if their ceiling is ten wins

0:46:20.480 --> 0:46:24.479
<v Speaker 2>and losing in round one. All right, last, I'm set

0:46:24.480 --> 0:46:26.520
<v Speaker 2>to face off against Phil helm Youth and others in

0:46:26.560 --> 0:46:28.240
<v Speaker 2>a big poker game next week.

0:46:29.160 --> 0:46:29.839
<v Speaker 4>How will I do?

0:46:30.080 --> 0:46:30.120
<v Speaker 6>What?

0:46:30.520 --> 0:46:32.880
<v Speaker 4>You know? What are the why all do well? Why won't?

0:46:32.880 --> 0:46:33.680
<v Speaker 3>In the X factor?

0:46:33.760 --> 0:46:34.080
<v Speaker 4>All Right?

0:46:34.520 --> 0:46:38.759
<v Speaker 2>So I'm going down to Houston to play. It's not

0:46:38.800 --> 0:46:41.080
<v Speaker 2>a poker tournament. It's a cash game, and it's a

0:46:41.680 --> 0:46:45.880
<v Speaker 2>big cash game. It's a three blind game, and the

0:46:45.880 --> 0:46:52.000
<v Speaker 2>blinds are twenty five fifty one hundred. You typically want

0:46:52.000 --> 0:46:56.080
<v Speaker 2>to have, at least for a game like this, at

0:46:56.200 --> 0:47:01.080
<v Speaker 2>least two hundred big blinds in front of you. So

0:47:02.000 --> 0:47:04.399
<v Speaker 2>the big blind is one hundred, and you want two

0:47:04.480 --> 0:47:08.439
<v Speaker 2>hundred of them. I mean, I would imagine everyone's gonna

0:47:08.480 --> 0:47:11.160
<v Speaker 2>be sitting with at least twenty grand. So it's a

0:47:11.160 --> 0:47:19.120
<v Speaker 2>big game. Why All do well? Is? And by the way,

0:47:19.120 --> 0:47:22.560
<v Speaker 2>it's a no limit hold them and pot limit Omaha game.

0:47:22.640 --> 0:47:23.440
<v Speaker 3>It alternates.

0:47:25.239 --> 0:47:34.560
<v Speaker 2>Why all do well is because I think I'm gonna

0:47:34.560 --> 0:47:39.239
<v Speaker 2>have an edge that I don't really want to say.

0:47:39.719 --> 0:47:43.279
<v Speaker 2>This is real money. I have an edge that I

0:47:43.280 --> 0:47:46.960
<v Speaker 2>don't think the other players will have that I will

0:47:47.000 --> 0:47:48.480
<v Speaker 2>discuss when I get back.

0:47:49.280 --> 0:47:52.359
<v Speaker 4>Why I wouldn't do well is.

0:47:54.480 --> 0:47:59.120
<v Speaker 2>If I lose a big hand early and get tilted,

0:47:59.440 --> 0:48:03.880
<v Speaker 2>which is one of my achilles heels, as it is

0:48:03.920 --> 0:48:08.200
<v Speaker 2>for a lot of poker players. The X factor, if

0:48:08.239 --> 0:48:13.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm being totally honest, is whether is whether or not

0:48:14.400 --> 0:48:20.000
<v Speaker 2>it's the players are drinking, because it's a it's at

0:48:20.000 --> 0:48:25.120
<v Speaker 2>a poker club, it's in Texas. If I think, my

0:48:25.560 --> 0:48:31.240
<v Speaker 2>edge goes up considerably if everyone myself included, is drinking.

0:48:31.760 --> 0:48:35.760
<v Speaker 2>If everyone's stone sober and being you know, super quiet

0:48:35.800 --> 0:48:39.000
<v Speaker 2>and taking it super serious, my edge goes down a bit.

0:48:40.080 --> 0:48:44.600
<v Speaker 2>But I'm used to playing in a chatty, big action,

0:48:45.160 --> 0:48:49.480
<v Speaker 2>drinks flowing poker setting, and if that's the setting, I

0:48:49.480 --> 0:48:49.799
<v Speaker 2>think I.

0:48:49.760 --> 0:48:50.840
<v Speaker 3>Could win a lot of money.

0:48:51.360 --> 0:48:54.959
<v Speaker 2>And if not, luckily football season starts a week after

0:48:55.000 --> 0:48:56.719
<v Speaker 2>I get back, and I'll make it all back with

0:48:56.840 --> 0:49:01.160
<v Speaker 2>my amazing picks, which, by the way, way, that show's

0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:04.279
<v Speaker 2>coming back as well, our third show. You know, we

0:49:04.400 --> 0:49:07.160
<v Speaker 2>usually do off season two shows a week during football season,

0:49:07.200 --> 0:49:09.520
<v Speaker 2>three shows a week. The Gambling show coming back in

0:49:09.560 --> 0:49:11.959
<v Speaker 2>a couple of weeks. We read your fan questions. Next,

0:49:11.960 --> 0:49:12.439
<v Speaker 2>what's right?

0:49:18.280 --> 0:49:18.560
<v Speaker 3>All right?

0:49:18.600 --> 0:49:19.120
<v Speaker 4>Welcome back?

0:49:19.160 --> 0:49:23.720
<v Speaker 2>In episode one seventy three, we're now reading the listener questions.

0:49:23.800 --> 0:49:25.960
<v Speaker 2>This one's from our producers who want to know how

0:49:26.080 --> 0:49:28.880
<v Speaker 2>was the Mulin Rouge in Paris. I am here to

0:49:28.960 --> 0:49:31.000
<v Speaker 2>tell you that is the single greatest show I've ever

0:49:31.000 --> 0:49:35.399
<v Speaker 2>seen in my life. I understand it's super famous, Nick,

0:49:35.400 --> 0:49:39.080
<v Speaker 2>why are you surprised? Sometimes things get so famous they

0:49:39.120 --> 0:49:43.000
<v Speaker 2>then deteriorate because they're kind of just coasting off their reputation.

0:49:44.239 --> 0:49:49.480
<v Speaker 2>The it it's a burlesque show, but it is so

0:49:49.719 --> 0:49:54.640
<v Speaker 2>much more. And yes, there are you know, very scantily

0:49:54.760 --> 0:49:59.359
<v Speaker 2>clad women as the you know, it's dancing, but that

0:49:59.520 --> 0:50:00.960
<v Speaker 2>is not what the show's about.

0:50:01.600 --> 0:50:03.240
<v Speaker 3>And I am telling you it.

0:50:03.320 --> 0:50:08.359
<v Speaker 2>Was jaw dropping, absolutely jaw dropping. I couldn't believe it,

0:50:08.920 --> 0:50:12.640
<v Speaker 2>and I can't even pay it justice. I'm just I'm

0:50:12.719 --> 0:50:18.239
<v Speaker 2>telling you I Paris was for my trip. I went

0:50:18.280 --> 0:50:22.920
<v Speaker 2>to Amsterdam, then to Colonne, Germany, then to Brussels and

0:50:22.960 --> 0:50:28.480
<v Speaker 2>then to Paris. Paris was one of the greatest cities

0:50:28.520 --> 0:50:31.319
<v Speaker 2>I've ever been to, one of the only places I've

0:50:31.320 --> 0:50:32.960
<v Speaker 2>ever traveled to where I was like, oh, I think

0:50:33.000 --> 0:50:36.600
<v Speaker 2>I could live I actually could live here, and Mulan

0:50:36.719 --> 0:50:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Rouge was the best thing I did. Now I understand this, like, oh,

0:50:39.920 --> 0:50:43.000
<v Speaker 2>big shocking take. Oh that's a good that's a good

0:50:43.080 --> 0:50:46.040
<v Speaker 2>photoshop of me doing that, you know at the Mulin Rouge.

0:50:46.040 --> 0:50:50.000
<v Speaker 2>I guess, uh, you know, shocking take. Nick says Paris

0:50:50.040 --> 0:50:53.600
<v Speaker 2>and the Mulan Rouge are awesome. Yeah, I understand that

0:50:53.680 --> 0:50:56.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm not the first person to have these opinions, but

0:50:56.120 --> 0:50:58.759
<v Speaker 2>it was my first experience there and I thought it

0:50:58.840 --> 0:50:59.920
<v Speaker 2>was just phenomenal.

0:51:00.200 --> 0:51:00.520
<v Speaker 4>All right.

0:51:00.680 --> 0:51:06.319
<v Speaker 2>Next, Quinn says, Nick, you should bet your hair the

0:51:06.400 --> 0:51:10.759
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs win the Super Bowl. Well, I'm not cutting my

0:51:10.800 --> 0:51:12.799
<v Speaker 2>hair until the Chiefs lose a game, so it could

0:51:12.800 --> 0:51:18.920
<v Speaker 2>be years. Uh. Dexter says, who's your sleeper team for

0:51:18.960 --> 0:51:23.000
<v Speaker 2>the NFL this season? I bet it's the Falcons. We're

0:51:23.040 --> 0:51:28.959
<v Speaker 2>gonna do that when we do Prediction Week and when

0:51:29.000 --> 0:51:35.520
<v Speaker 2>we do uh, when we get into that on this show,

0:51:35.640 --> 0:51:40.239
<v Speaker 2>you know the team. Those types of big picture picks

0:51:40.600 --> 0:51:43.160
<v Speaker 2>I do like Bjean Robinson, and I do like the

0:51:43.200 --> 0:51:44.439
<v Speaker 2>Falcons run game a lot.

0:51:44.520 --> 0:51:45.520
<v Speaker 3>I will tell you that much.

0:51:46.480 --> 0:51:51.160
<v Speaker 2>Uh, Cutlass says, Honestly, I feel like the influence of

0:51:51.160 --> 0:51:53.280
<v Speaker 2>sports gambling has gotten too big, too fast.

0:51:53.320 --> 0:51:53.799
<v Speaker 3>I get that.

0:51:55.480 --> 0:51:58.279
<v Speaker 2>To go from totally prohibited to be talked about, like

0:51:58.560 --> 0:52:01.640
<v Speaker 2>where it's you know, it's considered illegal and all of

0:52:01.680 --> 0:52:04.799
<v Speaker 2>these things, to where all of everything is brought to

0:52:04.840 --> 0:52:07.279
<v Speaker 2>you by a sports book and it became so ubiquitous

0:52:07.640 --> 0:52:11.439
<v Speaker 2>it it did seem it has seemed very very quick.

0:52:11.520 --> 0:52:16.560
<v Speaker 2>I understand that, Cutlass says, does Nick hate Mayo? No,

0:52:16.640 --> 0:52:19.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't hate Mayo, but just the will Levits putting

0:52:19.400 --> 0:52:20.680
<v Speaker 2>it in coffee and all that stuff.

0:52:20.680 --> 0:52:21.560
<v Speaker 3>I just think it's gross.

0:52:22.080 --> 0:52:25.600
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, I'm not anti mayonnaise in general. I

0:52:25.680 --> 0:52:28.359
<v Speaker 2>just think the will Levit stuff is gross and it's

0:52:28.360 --> 0:52:31.919
<v Speaker 2>also not franchise quarterback material if you ask me. All right,

0:52:32.400 --> 0:52:36.160
