Speaker 1: I probably blocked you. We're blocking one another. Wow. Oh man,
Speaker 1: So we're gonna get into a little Zeke talk today.
Speaker 1: We're gonna rehash the little telethon that we Nate and
Speaker 1: I were at yesterday. Um, talk a little bit about
Speaker 1: did canceling yesterday's game have an impact at all on
Speaker 1: this team? A little story time with Uncle Nate, and
Speaker 1: then find out what you boys are doing for this
Speaker 1: three day weekend once we get later on in the show.

Speaker 1: at twelve Man, we should do a midnight show. That
Speaker 1: would be interesting. Yeah, would you be in bed? Oh no, no,
Speaker 1: I'll be I'll be ready for that. I'll be a pillance.
Speaker 1: All the overnight truck drive, all the late night party
Speaker 1: is coming in. Man. Broad Us warned me if you
Speaker 1: ever do a night show, it's a different show. You
Speaker 1: get all the NASCAR and truck drive. Yeah. Yeah, West
Speaker 1: of the Rockies you're on the air, go out of
Speaker 1: true geeksters who really load their computers. Yeah. Yeah, Well,
Speaker 1: let's talk about Zeka a little bit. Our good buddy
Speaker 1: Clarence Hill wrote a story last night, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: kind of paraphrase some of the points that he made
Speaker 1: in his story, because there's been a little bit more
Speaker 1: of a development since his story, and we'll let Kurt
Speaker 1: kind of get into that. But after more than twenty
Speaker 1: five hours of discussion, including Zeke testifying in his own defense,
Speaker 1: his appeal process finally ended yesterday afternoon. Harold Henderson was
Speaker 1: the arbitrator that now has a decision on whether to
Speaker 1: uphold the uphold the suspension, reduce it, or vacate the
Speaker 1: suspension handed down by the NFL. Something that came out
Speaker 1: last night, and Clarence was the first one that I
Speaker 1: saw reporting this, so that's why I pulled his story.
Speaker 1: Kia Roberts, which is the director of investigations for the NFL,
Speaker 1: recommended no suspension for Zeke following her interviews with Thompson
Speaker 1: during the investigation. Thompson being Ezekiel Elliott's ex girlfriend, correct
Speaker 1: Tiffany Thompson, so Robert's recommendation of no discipline is the
Speaker 1: main reason Jerry Jones expressed so much confidence in the
Speaker 1: case until the NFL announced the suspension on August eleventh. Jones,
Speaker 1: and this is Clarence's story. Jones was told by a
Speaker 1: top NFL executive that there would be no suspension. According
Speaker 1: to a source, Robert's recommendation never made it into the
Speaker 1: NFL's final report or the official suspension letter on August eleven,
Speaker 1: which cited the league's findings of three instances of domestic
Speaker 1: violence by Elliott against Thompson based on the victims, testimony
Speaker 1: and photographic evidence. The meeting to discuss the discipline for
Speaker 1: Elliott included Lisa Freel, the senior vice president of Investigations,
Speaker 1: Jeff Pash, Executive vice president and General Council, and Adolpho Burch,
Speaker 1: Senior Vice president of Labor Policy and Government Affairs, among others.
Speaker 1: Freel barred Roberts from the meeting. A source said. ESPN's
Speaker 1: Adam Schefter reported Thursday that Henderson is being pressured into
Speaker 1: making a decision by Monday and that a reduction is likely.
Speaker 1: So let's paraphrase even further. Hey, here, the lead investigator,
Speaker 1: who Nate take your hands off your the lead investigator
Speaker 1: who maybe made a recommendation that nothing be done to
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott was barred from testifying, which was the only
Speaker 1: one that actually interviewed the person that this case is
Speaker 1: actually a case, Tiffany Thompson. She's the only one that
Speaker 1: spoke to Tiffany Thompson and made that recommendation, according to reports. Okay, continue, well,
Speaker 1: they have a if a decisions not made by Tuesday,
Speaker 1: Elliott could be on the field for the September tenth
Speaker 1: season opener against the New York Giants. As long as
Speaker 1: Eliot is under appeal, he is eligible to play. And
Speaker 1: that's the assumption that the Cowboys are operating on, according
Speaker 1: to a source, So Kurt, from the time Clarence wrote
Speaker 1: this last night to today, there's been some news. What's
Speaker 1: what's happened? Wow, it looks like that appeal is going
Speaker 1: to be last a lot longer. I guess they've already
Speaker 1: a filed a restraining temporary restraining order in the case.
Speaker 1: They did that today in Plano, which is suburb next
Speaker 1: year to Frisco. And it's all based on the procedural
Speaker 1: screw ups that the NFL wants to do. It once
Speaker 1: again did with that lead investigator and how that was
Speaker 1: handled with freel and apparently you know what was said
Speaker 1: and how they handled it. It's opened the door for
Speaker 1: them too. It looks like it's got a pretty strong
Speaker 1: case to take this to court now. And as long
Speaker 1: as it's tied up in court, he'll be on the field.
Speaker 1: What the hell is going on with this case? Man?
Speaker 1: You take a year, You take a year. You got
Speaker 1: a person that you trust to investigate. This person does
Speaker 1: what you act. They give you your recommendation, but it's
Speaker 1: not what you want to hear. It's almost like if
Speaker 1: that's the recommendation that it's almost like they considered everything
Speaker 1: else that's gone on. I think since then, that's what
Speaker 1: I totally. You know, they they said they said in
Speaker 1: the initial report that leaked or the letter to Ezekiel
Speaker 1: Elliott that you know, the Saint Patrick's Day thing is
Speaker 1: not being considered here, but that was bad too. And
Speaker 1: the thing at the bar here in Dallas Camp that
Speaker 1: they you know, they didn't even mention that in the report,
Speaker 1: but it also came out it happened two weeks before
Speaker 1: the suspension. So um, and there's there is a laundry
Speaker 1: list of stuff that he's gotten himself into, a varying
Speaker 1: degrees of of whether or not it's a deal um
Speaker 1: pot shop stuff like that. But he's being suspended for
Speaker 1: domestic violence, which is a much more serious allegation than
Speaker 1: any of the other stuff. It is very, very serious,
Speaker 1: and I understand that. But I said this now I'll
Speaker 1: say it again. If it was, if it was for
Speaker 1: the violence against the young lady, of alleged violence, then
Speaker 1: why was all the rest of the stuff in the letter?
Speaker 1: Why why did that even make it right? Why I
Speaker 1: even mention it? Why even mentioned it? Because they knew
Speaker 1: for what we know now that that would not hold
Speaker 1: up if they would have, if they would have followed
Speaker 1: this young lady's lead. Maybe that now come back with
Speaker 1: something at this point that seems more realistic. Now we
Speaker 1: don't know what happened between Zeke and that young lady,
Speaker 1: but the more more, would you feel better if they said,
Speaker 1: hey man, you got two games because you just did
Speaker 1: the the uh, the the young lady deal, the pot
Speaker 1: this that when you feel a little bit of hey man,
Speaker 1: you heard an image of the league, When you feel
Speaker 1: a little bit better if you would have just did
Speaker 1: it like that instead of saying, hey, you know now,
Speaker 1: and this is the funny thing. I would not try
Speaker 1: to speculate what happens between that young lady and him.
Speaker 1: But now she's gonna put herself out there in a
Speaker 1: whole different light. She may not look as victimized now
Speaker 1: as she now as she was then. Don't don't don't
Speaker 1: do this. And I'm I'm talking to the NFL, I'm
Speaker 1: talking to the players Association. Don't do this the wrong
Speaker 1: way again. You've dropped the ball more time. If it's
Speaker 1: five cases, you've dropped the ball four times. He got
Speaker 1: to stop fellas, you've dropped the ball. Yep. And it's
Speaker 1: and this in the person that they didn't allow in
Speaker 1: the in the meeting. It's not like some slap like
Speaker 1: us or some security guard. It's the director grading yourself.
Speaker 1: You're not talking to the other three guys slap like me.
Speaker 1: It's the director of investigations for the NFL. And you
Speaker 1: just totally disregard her record. This is what she gets
Speaker 1: paid to do. Why do you have people working for
Speaker 1: you if you're not gonna take their advice and they
Speaker 1: recommend this whole thing, especially when it's company, I'm sure
Speaker 1: it happens that you're but but especially when it's that
Speaker 1: and I if this was a grunt player, which we
Speaker 1: wouldn't even be discussing it, it it wouldn't even be on
Speaker 1: the radar. But you, when a hearty deal went down,
Speaker 1: you went out and hire this same person that you're
Speaker 1: now disregarding because she at that point was all for
Speaker 1: Now she's trying to be you know, I hate saying
Speaker 1: because I don't have any information or true information. I'm
Speaker 1: just kind of going on fro emotions. But now she
Speaker 1: says one thing and you ignore her. This is the
Speaker 1: same lady now, I don't. I don't. What I don't
Speaker 1: The part I don't get is, Okay, they're smart people
Speaker 1: in the office in New York that run this league, right,
Speaker 1: how can you think that this was not gonna come out?
Speaker 1: How can you think, especially with it being Jerry Jones
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry's gonna find out what happens
Speaker 1: behind those doors. He's gonna find out why this is
Speaker 1: going on. How at the league level could you think
Speaker 1: that you could hide this. I don't. That's the part
Speaker 1: I don't understand is is, well, I think they believe
Speaker 1: they're operating on somewhat different set of rules. And I
Speaker 1: think obviously one of the I guess arguments for the
Speaker 1: investigators saying she said there was no credible evidence to
Speaker 1: suspend him. She has a legal background, and one thing
Speaker 1: I heard is she may be looking at this from
Speaker 1: a legal background. That's why Columbus police didn't arrest him
Speaker 1: or charge him, supposedly was because there wasn't enough credible evidence. Yeah, though,
Speaker 1: so she could be saying the same thing from a
Speaker 1: legal standpoint. And the League is like, but we are
Speaker 1: above you know, we have a different set of rules here.
Speaker 1: We have a you know, we don't we don't look
Speaker 1: at the legal part of we just look we just
Speaker 1: look at our you know, it's detrimental to the image
Speaker 1: of the league or whatever. And so they're trying to
Speaker 1: sneak this through. And that's that's the argument now for
Speaker 1: the union is that you have you know, you can't
Speaker 1: do it that way. You have to follow them. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: let's let's walk through this. We know for fact, between
Speaker 1: him and the young lady that that he pulled that
Speaker 1: down rights right Saint Patrick's day. We know that he
Speaker 1: walked into a pot deal. We know what else. There
Speaker 1: are things in this case that are are known that
Speaker 1: I mean, like they said, there's just not enough credible
Speaker 1: out of defendence to go to court. But there was,
Speaker 1: I mean, something happened, and I think that's with enough
Speaker 1: credible evidence right in Okay, if if if this is
Speaker 1: criminal court, then the the things that she said that
Speaker 1: were proven not to be true or stretching the truth
Speaker 1: that sort of mitigates everything else that she said that
Speaker 1: might have been true. Now the League is trying to
Speaker 1: parse out what was true and if is there enough
Speaker 1: that was true that constitutes domestic violence? They decided it was.
Speaker 1: I I don't think that the League is trying to
Speaker 1: screw him over just just for the hell of it.
Speaker 1: I would assume that they think that they're doing the
Speaker 1: right thing here. But say town Brady, I understand, yeah,
Speaker 1: they just when you put yourself in this capacity to
Speaker 1: be extra judicial, there's going to be so many things
Speaker 1: like this that come up, not just this case, but
Speaker 1: in the years to come. If they want to stick
Speaker 1: to this that that there's there's just that are problematic.
Speaker 1: But you know what, you know what you know what
Speaker 1: not what you just did sounds great. If they would
Speaker 1: have included they investigated the only person that interviewed him.
Speaker 1: If they would have included her recommendation, I'll go along
Speaker 1: what she said. You know, the biggest problem I have
Speaker 1: with this whole this whole thing, is this is setting
Speaker 1: the precedent guilty until you prove your self innocent, which
Speaker 1: is not what this country's system is based off of.
Speaker 1: So now this opens the door for anybody, male or female,
Speaker 1: to accuse a high profile athlete in the NFL because
Speaker 1: this happened in the NFL, this happened to me. This
Speaker 1: is the person that did it, and you can ruin
Speaker 1: their career. There's no evidence here other than he said
Speaker 1: she said. One says that this didn't happen. One says
Speaker 1: it did. And now you're you're talking about livelihood, you're
Speaker 1: talking about you know, your reputation, you're talking about all
Speaker 1: this stuff, and this opens the door for anybody to
Speaker 1: blame anyone. And then now the you know, the responsibility
Speaker 1: lies with you to prove that you didn't do what
Speaker 1: this person said. I don't. That's that's a that's a
Speaker 1: bad road to go down. How about how about I'm
Speaker 1: mister Henderson and you walking in with Alfa David that
Speaker 1: didn't get presented evidently didn't get presented because y'all didn't
Speaker 1: want it. So now not only do we have Afford David,
Speaker 1: but we got one of your people that you hired
Speaker 1: to put in this privileged position to help advise you,
Speaker 1: and you ignore both of them. I want to see
Speaker 1: the righteousness of making a decision when you hire the people.
Speaker 1: You're the top guy in charge, our guys, our girls
Speaker 1: in charge. But the one person that don't go along
Speaker 1: with your program, that only person. I'll keep repeating this.
Speaker 1: If Josh is the only person that has interviewed me,
Speaker 1: my opponent, all y'all going by is what he say,
Speaker 1: and if he say, well, hey, I'm like a Knack's opponent,
Speaker 1: I don't like Nate, and y'all two looking at me like, well,
Speaker 1: you know, forget, we're just gonna go with Nate, but
Speaker 1: you don't know what happened. You wan't there in an
Speaker 1: investigation that don't make no sense. It's an odd position
Speaker 1: that we find ourselves with because I think that there
Speaker 1: is an argument to be made against the process that
Speaker 1: led the NFL to this point. But I still can't
Speaker 1: I can't go all the way out on that limb
Speaker 1: because I believe that if he did it, he deserves
Speaker 1: the suspension. Okay, but proved he did it, well, I'll
Speaker 1: see that. I think most people think something happened. I mean,
Speaker 1: she's she's the Columbus police have said they felt something happened,
Speaker 1: but there wasn't enough evidence to go to court. And
Speaker 1: that's the thing here, that court versus the league set
Speaker 1: of rules and where the court couldn't come in and
Speaker 1: we'll sit down, couldn't do it. Dotes sin with the parties.
Speaker 1: Not the young lady. Not the young lady because she's
Speaker 1: been through enough. But sand I was Zeke in his
Speaker 1: representatives sit down with the Dallas Cowboys and their representatives
Speaker 1: as a league owner and commissioner with mister Henderson and say,
Speaker 1: you know what, let's work this out. Let's and that
Speaker 1: can be done. So you know that is the most
Speaker 1: simple and most effective way when you're trying to Now,
Speaker 1: if this thing holds up and he get ugly and
Speaker 1: it all goes to court and all this right here,
Speaker 1: you know, Zeke is fighting for his life too, because
Speaker 1: if this thing's gold go down against him, he has
Speaker 1: no more rope. He's hung right, And I heard somewhere.
Speaker 1: I don't remember who I heard this from. But if
Speaker 1: he is suspended, he loses his guaranteed money, I believe
Speaker 1: is what I heard. You know, you know what I
Speaker 1: hear your brother, young man? But right about now that
Speaker 1: that ain't that? That ain't it? What? What's it is?
Speaker 1: Can the league for once really way all of the options?
Speaker 1: If they were to weigh all the options? What what
Speaker 1: do you? What more do you have to say? Not
Speaker 1: not the options that you wanted to be, but the
Speaker 1: options that were there. Number one, the option was that
Speaker 1: young lady who investigated the deal with the young lady.
Speaker 1: Then you you go another step further to stack the
Speaker 1: cars against this young man. Hey, you cannot use her
Speaker 1: or her testimony against her? Okay, well, Zeke say fine,
Speaker 1: here's it. Luckily mister Hill and several others kept digging,
Speaker 1: kept digging. Who leaked it? I kind of know who
Speaker 1: probably leaked it? But guess what now they find this
Speaker 1: this disreport here. I'm not saying. I'm saying normally when
Speaker 1: y'all talking about this, I don't say a word. But
Speaker 1: when you're wrong, when you're wrong, when you didn't do
Speaker 1: it right, the process that you put in place and
Speaker 1: you didn't follow your process, You're wrong. I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: surprised at all. In fact, I would expect it will have,
Speaker 1: you know, another development in this situation before we're back
Speaker 1: for the next show Tuesday. But I'm I'm I'm game
Speaker 1: open for prediction on what happens. Does he serve the
Speaker 1: full six games? Does he play against the Giants? Where
Speaker 1: where do we stand as of September tenth. I think
Speaker 1: he definitely is going to be playing. I mean, just
Speaker 1: this restraining order they just filed alone, I think it's
Speaker 1: gonna back that up even more. Now. Worst case scenario is,
Speaker 1: you know, December something he gets suspended. But for now,
Speaker 1: I think it's he's gonna be on the field. What
Speaker 1: do you think, Nate, get it right? What do you
Speaker 1: think it's gonna happen? You know what, brother is this
Speaker 1: goes a little deep with me. Get it right. Because
Speaker 1: you got a young lady that has an issue, uh
Speaker 1: she's been uh tampered with. You got Zeke who's got
Speaker 1: the issue he's been Timford with. Now you got thirdly,
Speaker 1: you got the Dallas Cowboys and mister Jones. They don't
Speaker 1: know what's going on. And now only two people know
Speaker 1: what's going on, is the commissioner and mister Henderson. Get
Speaker 1: it right. Whether he played or not, don't make a
Speaker 1: difference to me, but get it right. That's that's the
Speaker 1: main issue. Got a prediction, Channing. I'm with Kurt. I
Speaker 1: think he plays. The interesting thing to me is going
Speaker 1: to see how now that this is out, how the
Speaker 1: league is going to handle that. It's it's six games now.
Speaker 1: To me, this you know, does it throw the whole
Speaker 1: suspension out? And if it does, then you know, the
Speaker 1: League's like, Okay, we screwed this up from the very beginning.
Speaker 1: That's that's not a good look the league. I just
Speaker 1: can't imagine the league is going to admit no the
Speaker 1: fault or probably just so we give it six months
Speaker 1: to a year, and the league investigator gonna be fired,
Speaker 1: replaced hired by somebody else that's gonna just all in
Speaker 1: line to what they want to do, and then we're
Speaker 1: gonna have the same old union that don't back up
Speaker 1: as players. It's gonna be like Russia. Um, I think
Speaker 1: I'm with you guys that that he plays Sunday against
Speaker 1: the Giants and and this hangs over the season. It's
Speaker 1: it sounds like at some point this suspension is going
Speaker 1: to get reduced, maybe not by the league, but just
Speaker 1: by labor cord or whatever arbitrator this ends up with.
Speaker 1: And maybe it happens to start next season. But if
Speaker 1: you got it hanging over your head all year, you
Speaker 1: just got to be so afraid that it comes down
Speaker 1: in December, right, And you know, I mean I feel
Speaker 1: bad for the player. You know this. He's got to
Speaker 1: deal with this for a year. Yeah, you know he's
Speaker 1: been dealing with it, right, He's been dealing with it. See,
Speaker 1: the thing is, when you've had over a year to investigate,
Speaker 1: to to to come to a conclusion, and you waited,
Speaker 1: and you waited, and you waited for whatever reason, you
Speaker 1: had information, you prepared your letter, so it dropped several
Speaker 1: minutes out there. You gave a suspension, but you convenuely
Speaker 1: forgot an intricate part. How do you hire an investigate
Speaker 1: her and ignore what he is She has said one
Speaker 1: way or the other. He did put himself in the
Speaker 1: situation if if the girl was unstable, then he carried
Speaker 1: on a relationship with an unstable girl when he put
Speaker 1: that on him. But you know what she and I
Speaker 1: ain't saying she unstable. I'm saying I ain't saying nothing
Speaker 1: has not happened to her. But what but what is
Speaker 1: transpiring now? It's going to be uglier for her and him.
Speaker 1: You know, you don't you know when we when this
Speaker 1: is broken, we was doing the show and doing it
Speaker 1: with the other guys. I'm saying, I get tired of
Speaker 1: all of a sudden this that happens you makes you suspension.
Speaker 1: Now now all of the pertinent information started leaking out.
Speaker 1: I told Mick, I told Nick, and I told another gentleman, Rob,
Speaker 1: the same thing. I said that watch when this comes
Speaker 1: out and the fight start. All the pertinent information that
Speaker 1: we should have known gonna show up now. We shouldn't
Speaker 1: have known this. Brother. Well, I'm not real happy that
Speaker 1: you're cheating on us, Nate with those other guys. I'm
Speaker 1: not either. Man. I asked for you guys, man, but
Speaker 1: they said man, since Josh and in Time was at
Speaker 1: camp be, you know, they couldn't have our show. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: it's definitely gonna be something to watch over the weekend
Speaker 1: and early part of next week. See where this thing goes.
Speaker 1: Tell you what they want. The arbitrator Henderson they're asking
Speaker 1: to be have a decision by Monday or two Monday
Speaker 1: or Tuesday. Yeah, so there would be a busy, busy
Speaker 1: weekend for that guy in that office. So that's where
Speaker 1: you get paid for. You don't work about all. We
Speaker 1: work about the job, and we get paid by our sponsor.
Speaker 1: And we can only get paid by our sponsors if
Speaker 1: we take a break and let them have a minute.

Speaker 1: lot of people that aren't having any fun right now.
Speaker 1: And it's wonderful that you're pitching in and your teammates
Speaker 1: are pitching in. I'm dead serious. One of the things
Speaker 1: that I never thought when I got involved with the
Speaker 1: Cowboys was that all this visibility and all these fans
Speaker 1: we got all over the country can kick in and

Speaker 1: guys and others like you will help get it to them.

Speaker 1: he give one million dollars? Yes, sir, you let a
Speaker 1: roll off as were little sweet Beard. Yeah, pretty awesome,
Speaker 1: pretty cool moment, you know, seeing that interaction and seeing
Speaker 1: you know, the relationship Jerry has with his players, and
Speaker 1: you know, told him he loved him there at the
Speaker 1: end of the call. I love you, Josh. You know what?
Speaker 1: You know what's so funny, man, is the fact that
Speaker 1: I don't know a time when mister Jones hasn't came
Speaker 1: up and was more than the occasion. Man, I mean,
Speaker 1: how quick did they put this together? I mean out
Speaker 1: of nowhere from Yeah, it's like, okay, we don't need
Speaker 1: the Texans to have a show, Let's do this like this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And it's just great. The way the Cowboys always seem
Speaker 1: to show up at the right time. Now practice, Yeah,
Speaker 1: there was actually football going out. I mean it was
Speaker 1: like a highlight reel of college players year after Why
Speaker 1: he got bored? You know, it's like I wondered about that,
Speaker 1: like since the last game when those guys were gonna
Speaker 1: be able to their chance. So did they use this
Speaker 1: practice to really Oh it was getting after Yeah, oh,
Speaker 1: everybody that was practicing, as Jason had already told him,
Speaker 1: if you are you practicing, if you're practicing, understand that
Speaker 1: means you're playing. You might out make the scene. But
Speaker 1: it wasn't a better practice game speed type. Now it
Speaker 1: wasn't It wasn't that fast, but it was pretty quick.
Speaker 1: And uh, I'm telling you funny. I think one of
Speaker 1: the UH coaches was behind one of the players who
Speaker 1: didn't know the players who got a play, and he
Speaker 1: was telling the plays. It's like, Wow, at this point,
Speaker 1: you're probably in trouble. Well think about I think we
Speaker 1: got a couple of new guys on the roster wide receiver.
Speaker 1: We have what a linebacker new a couple of new
Speaker 1: guys on the on the on the roster, so they
Speaker 1: trying to help him alone. But if I'm the linebacker.
Speaker 1: I just tell Cope him and sea ball, get ball.
Speaker 1: That's all you gotta do. Wide receiver got a little
Speaker 1: bit a little more precise. But now by them canceling
Speaker 1: the game yesterday, did that hurt anyone's answers of making
Speaker 1: this team? I know we've talked about this before or
Speaker 1: they pretty much were they pretty much Well take Josh, y'all,
Speaker 1: y'all may no more about it than me, because I
Speaker 1: don't never count. At the end of the year, it's
Speaker 1: only about four or five guys that you might have
Speaker 1: a question about that you might be looking for something
Speaker 1: special to make you go over the edge to put
Speaker 1: them on the practice squad, because all you gotta do
Speaker 1: is take the three dbs that are hurt and just
Speaker 1: put them on the team because everybody else is set.
Speaker 1: Who who it hurts is the guy who we don't
Speaker 1: know that would have blocked the punt or something in
Speaker 1: that game, and you know, maybe that guy showed up
Speaker 1: in practice in a way that um the next Jesse
Speaker 1: Holly yeah and press him a nut, say hey man,
Speaker 1: we gotta get this the guy through waivers and get
Speaker 1: him on. I mean, they did have four preseason games,
Speaker 1: which is what every other team in the league that
Speaker 1: except for the Cardinals. The only difference is, you know,
Speaker 1: for those guys on the bubble or trying to stick
Speaker 1: around on the practice squad, they didn't get to maybe
Speaker 1: show the development from that from the Hall of Fame
Speaker 1: game when they didn't you know, know, where they were
Speaker 1: going to hear look how I've put it together over
Speaker 1: the last month that that maybe they would have liked to.
Speaker 1: But you know, the coaches can evaluate from practice film too,
Speaker 1: and and if they weighed, um, yesterday's practice like a
Speaker 1: final exam, then I don't think it changes too much
Speaker 1: in there in the evaluations that they'll have between now
Speaker 1: and is it Saturday when when they go to fifty three. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think they Kurt and you may know more about
Speaker 1: this than me, but I think they actually start making
Speaker 1: cuts today tomorrow, and then the final the paperwork has
Speaker 1: to be turned in on Saturday. Right, yeah, last night
Speaker 1: last week? Yeah, I think it's I want to say,
Speaker 1: four o'clock Eastern. Some of them they've already you may
Speaker 1: day Sex the day that Texans said bye bye, about
Speaker 1: thirty guys with bye bye, they should have gotten to
Speaker 1: go on the bus and they're doing they're actually doing
Speaker 1: brought us and Nick and all those guys are doing
Speaker 1: a um a live cutdown show. Really yeah, this afternoon
Speaker 1: it should be oh my god, man afternoon. How can
Speaker 1: it be live? Because they don't know who's cut they're
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're doing they're doing what Josh did on
Speaker 1: the show in like three minutes. They're gonna stretch it
Speaker 1: out into an hour show. So but it should be
Speaker 1: really cool. So if you get mad, didn't put me
Speaker 1: on that, it'll be on that. Well that's high drama,
Speaker 1: high drama. Speaking of drama, speaking of shut up? That
Speaker 1: pretty good. Shut up. Josh's high drama. Don't you have
Speaker 1: somewhere to be today? I'm I'm gonna stop by Salata
Speaker 1: after this? What's what's a little bill? Jern salad? Bar? Oh?
Speaker 1: Good spot? Can you'd like to announce the computers working now?
Speaker 1: Just five minutes after we needed it? Well, if you
Speaker 1: would have played it, Josh wouldn't have had his moment
Speaker 1: of glory by calling me in the middle of the playback.
Speaker 1: Does he want him some glory? Okay he might, Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, Nate, I just I just open under how
Speaker 1: many times McArthur would get us. General McArthur I called
Speaker 1: him mcgarth Douglas. I wanted he got us. He gets
Speaker 1: us every day in one way or not. We might
Speaker 1: not know it. He's getting covered in some way. Wow. Um. So,
Speaker 1: speaking of drama and cuts, Nate talk us through what
Speaker 1: that process is like like cut day, like knowing knowing
Speaker 1: you're gonna get cut, or knowing there's a chance, like
Speaker 1: hey brother, it ain't no chance. You know you gonna
Speaker 1: get cut? You getting cut? You know? Right? Yeah? Because
Speaker 1: the coaches now, but now are they already talking to
Speaker 1: the guys saying, hey, we're gonna cut you, but we're
Speaker 1: gonna try to pick up some guys. They tell him like, hey, man,
Speaker 1: you know some guys that they see down the road,
Speaker 1: say like, let's say something happened. I don't even want
Speaker 1: to say his name, one of the running backs. Let's
Speaker 1: say something happened to one of the running back. They
Speaker 1: telling him, you know, you know we we we got you.
Speaker 1: You know, if something happened, we got you. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. If they do keep your boy over
Speaker 1: my boy, you know Andy Jones, they keep uh Noah
Speaker 1: Brown or Andy Jones, don't keep six receivers. You know
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, hey, you know, you know our systems
Speaker 1: out of this. Maybe they can put him back on
Speaker 1: practice squad. I think he's got another year of multibility him. So,
Speaker 1: but the guys that gonna get cut. You know, back
Speaker 1: when I played and see, I think it's not that impersonal.
Speaker 1: I think I'm using the right word because back in
Speaker 1: our day, when the coaches literally just stopped talking to you,
Speaker 1: Oh man, you knew it was coming because these be
Speaker 1: like they they because the closest got to the game.
Speaker 1: They was not gonna waste their time trying to make
Speaker 1: sure Nate knew had the right kick stuff on the
Speaker 1: three technique. It was like, uh, next guy up. I
Speaker 1: mean they give you a rep. Hey, can you come
Speaker 1: in here a tighten sword and do this and do that?
Speaker 1: But you'd be like, un you finished. You finished your
Speaker 1: career in Carola. Yeah, it can be nothing find from Carolina. Honeys.
Speaker 1: Did you um, did you retire in the off season
Speaker 1: or did you try one more year? And then? Oh no,
Speaker 1: I was through. I was through, Josh. I was through.
Speaker 1: When I was with Carolina Pouthers, I was there more
Speaker 1: as a yes man. I was the most highest paid
Speaker 1: yes man in the world because I could not play.
Speaker 1: My body was gone. But you didn't go to one
Speaker 1: last camp and then get cut And I was through, Josh,
Speaker 1: I was through. Were you ever cut? My agent Jim
Speaker 1: needed to call me and said, you think he got
Speaker 1: one more in y'all clicked? Had I here from you
Speaker 1: for two years? But early in your career, Um, you
Speaker 1: kind of did the bounce around thing US Redskins and
Speaker 1: before you wound up here and how many times were
Speaker 1: you cut over those? I was cut from the Redskins
Speaker 1: that once. Then I went to the USFVL and I
Speaker 1: made it with the town with Bay Bandits and was
Speaker 1: having a the league the NFL could have got me.
Speaker 1: I was having so much fun in Tampa he could
Speaker 1: wait a minute. Used to work for Donald Trump? No,
Speaker 1: that was I worked for the best that crushed. He
Speaker 1: crushed our league. And I ain't gonna say what he's
Speaker 1: doing to this country. It's not my place. But he won.
Speaker 1: He won one dollar in that lawsuit versus the Yeah,
Speaker 1: and they tripled it. In that type of lawsuit, you
Speaker 1: get tripled. They got three dollars. Yeah, we got three dollars.
Speaker 1: I still I want my one ounce of whatever that is,
Speaker 1: mister Trump President. But back to you, Josh before you
Speaker 1: bring my phone. Uh man, when the red skin has
Speaker 1: cut me, I really didn't care. I mean, who wants
Speaker 1: to be a red skin? I grew up a California

Speaker 1: well you got, uh was seven hundred and fifty per
Speaker 1: week when you played in preseason? Uh you know, twenty
Speaker 1: five thirty dollars for you know, for dam Mann. It
Speaker 1: was been a lot of money back then. I did

Speaker 1: running back, Gary Anderson, he was playing for us. He

Speaker 1: lunch break and they're like, there's like two, only two

Speaker 1: of about twenty more cars behind him that didn't get gas.
Speaker 1: So there was only like one station on across the
Speaker 1: street that had it, and they had a line of
Speaker 1: about forty cars. So I was like, man, such a panic.

Speaker 1: it in that way. If I'll still be at the stadium,
Speaker 1: I have enough gas to get home, but I won't

Speaker 1: up driving about fifteen minutes from the stadium and found
Speaker 1: found the spot. I mean from the sound of things,
Speaker 1: it is just a panic. Yeah, they had gas, but
Speaker 1: people panic. It was like, well, run on a bank.
Speaker 1: They had gas, but they don't right now. That's because
