27
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,759
Speaker 1: MVP from the NFL Honors right, so far we've heard,

28
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, nobody surprised. Miles Garrett is your Defensive Player

29
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: of the Year. Teed McMillan's your offensive Rookie of the Year.

30
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: Probably if Tyler Schuck had started a few games early,

31
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: he might have won. But you know, waiting for Matthew Stafford,

32
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: I figured, okay, we're gonna start the show. We're going

33
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: to talk about Gianni's big NBA trade deadlines, more about

34
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: the players not getting traded. And then the award for

35
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: AP Coach of the Year was given out to Mike

36
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: Vrabowl of the Patriots. He had a good run, he did.

37
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: We told you earlier this season, Millia, there is one

38
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: choice for Coach of the Year, and it is this

39
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: is the third year in a row, not you know,

40
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: not the same. We're ahead of the curve, but boy,

41
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: third year in a row. We told you who the

42
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: NFL Coach of the year was going to be in October.

43
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: Well we told you well, and so it'll be Joe

44
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: Brady next year because he gets to play the Jets

45
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: twice and again, remember three three teams get to play

46
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: the Jets twice. Could understand because I just went with

47
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: the guy that has the quarterback. We'll actually get to

48
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn because there's a crazy ass story involving the

49
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: Jets coming up in a fa But Mike Rabel, who

50
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: he told is gonna wait, like one choice for Coach

51
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: of the Year, Mike Rabel, and he was going to win.

52
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: So at NFL Honors, Tiffany Hatish, comedian really funny, uh,

53
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: you know a couple of movies when she burst on

54
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: the scene, absolutely hysterical. Uh, Tiffany Hattish announced the winner

55
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: for Coach of the Year for Mike Rabel. Now I'm

56
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: not you know, I'm not ruining things by telling you

57
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,399
Speaker 1: he won spoiling. Does she have something new coming out?

58
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 1: I don't Maybe maybe otherwise this could be like the

59
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: throw back Thursday. This could be the fifty cent version

60
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: of I'm gonna throw a bad first pitch because people

61
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: will talk about it. I think that's exactly what's going

62
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: on first pitch, Nobody's going to talk. If I throw

63
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: a bad one, people will talk about it. So uh,

64
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: here's Tiffany Hattish announcing the coach of the year in

65
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,720

Speaker 1: That's good. We get ramping up towards the Oscars. Let's

00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: get home. Neither of them won, but there was nominated.

77
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: Dick Poop was not the coach of the year. Dick

78
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: Pope was not the coach of the year. Dick Pole

79
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: was a pitching coach for the A's whole. You can't

80
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: say no, he's a pitching coach for the time. No

81
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: Red Sox, I think so might have been. Yeah, but

82
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: I he managed the did he manage the A's I

83
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: think for a little bit third base called pitching coach. Yeah,

84
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: a long time, but none of them are winners tonight.

85
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel, head coach of the Patriots, is your NFL

86
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: Coach of the Year, and here he is getting all

87
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: the plaudits that go along with that trophy. Tiffany Hattish

88
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: making sure that just like a Dina Menzel and John Travolta,

89
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: he gets his moment in the sun.

90
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 3: Ape Coach of the Year.

91
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: Is Mike Verbal?

92
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: They say it in correct, Mike.

93
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 3: Verba is busy preparing for this Super Bowl.

94
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: Well, let me just say this NFL honors. Uh. He

95
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: does talk a lot. He is very verbal. He is

96
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: you know, press conferences are good, so you verbal. He

97
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: does speak a lot, very verbose and obviously to be

98
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: a head coach, to get through to your team, you

99
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: need to be verbal. He's a master communicator.

100
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 2: You need to know.

101
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: You question about it, Mike Verbal is now your coach

102
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: of the year. What's good? I would love to hear

103
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: his acceptance speech, Mike Verbal. I like that she was

104
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: jacked up about it, though she said before the NFL

105
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: on it she was so excited to meet a lot

106
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: of NFL stars and personalities, all of this, and then

107
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 1: she gives the Coach of the Year to Mike Verbal.

108
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 3: Mike Verbal is busy preparing for this Super Bowl.

109
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: So he can't be here for this pesky award. And clearly,

110
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: I don't need to spend five seconds making sure I

111
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: got the guy's name right. I mean the name so

112
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: fun she said, she said it twice. Is so embarrassing

113
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: for her in the NFL because it's a couple of things.

114
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: Number One, it's being a lazy talent and not even

115
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: spending five seconds. Hey, okay, Mike Rabe, Okay, I'm gonna

116
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: make sure I get this guy's name right. Well, how

117
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 1: do I say this name? Not asking somebody Mike Rabel? Right?

118
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 1: Incredibly lazy. Also, how about a producer saying, you know what,

119
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: Mike Rabel, let me make sure, Hey, you're good, it's

120
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: Mike Rabel. Yeah great. Instead, she gets to go up

121
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: on stage, embarrass herself, embarrass the NFL. I'm up here.

122
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: Clearly I don't know who this guy is. Clearly I

123
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: have no idea what's going on. I'm just gonna read

124
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: what's on the piece of paper in front of me.

125
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: And she can't spend five seconds getting the guy's name right.

126
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 1: Five seconds. Just ask somebody, just or someone as a producer.

127
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: Your job is to produce and no, so you don't

128
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: have situations like that.

129
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 2: Make sure.

130
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: And instead, she goes up there, calls him Mike verbal.

131
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: And I don't know if she's got an earpiece in

132
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: or not. I assume she does.

133
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 3: No.

134
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: One gets in her ear and says, Rabel. It's Rabel,

135
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: say Rabel Vrabel. So when she corrected the second time,

136
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: she could say, Mike Rabel is not here. Okay, all right, Well,

137
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,040
Speaker 1: at least you learned second one. Someone told you. No, no, no,

138
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna double down. I'm gonna saying Mike verbal is

139
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: not here because he's talking to somebody, because he's preparing

140
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl. He's being verbal in a meeting room,

141
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: Mike somewhere else, Mike verbal. All right. Last couple of

142
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: IMDb credits. It's Florida Man. Okay, Okay, so it's out there,

00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,120

Speaker 1: all right, so the fact that it's back in twenty

148
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: twenty six is kind of exciting. Didn't she do that show?

149
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: She was told that she won a Grammy when she

150

Speaker 1: from Mark Mark. But the guy who said it said

174
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,840

244
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: very exciting. Yeah. Well, I wonder if there's at least

245
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 1: a little bit of recognition right before she says it

246
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: going I think I'm gonna get this name wrong. I'm

247
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: gonna get this name wrong. I'm gonna say verbal verbull,

248
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,400

249
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: span of like half a second in her head. I

250
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,359
Speaker 1: find her highly entertaining and hopeful that I think that

251
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: that there was something that you just leaned into it,

252
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 1: which she didn't know, which is why she dragged it out.

253
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 2: Verbal.

254
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,040

00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,120

00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 1: It might actually be Canton. Canton is there? Oh? No, Canty,

341
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: Drew Brees. Not surprising. Bill Belechick, Bill No, Bill Belechick

342
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,239
Speaker 1: and Bob Carrift are not in the Pro Football Hall

343
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 1: of Fame. That with a C did not make it,

344
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 1: and Ilk Greenwood didn't make it in either committee. Ilk

345
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 1: Greenwood did not make it. I'm sorry. I feel bad,

346
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: but he did not. And Ken Anderson did not make

347
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,919
Speaker 1: it in either Sorry about that. Well. The Bengals fans

348
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: once again have nothing to cheer for. Now. They would

349
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 1: cheer for Suzanna Hoffs. The Bengals are a pretty good band.

350
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: But this is just mispronouncing every Keep it going. Yeah,

351
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: I did signed a Canton Island by the way Drew Brees,

352
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald, Pro Football Hall of Famer, Roger Craig, It's

353
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: it's too easy, so I'm not gonna do it. Luke

354
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 1: Keikley is a Pro Football Hall of Famer. I mean

355
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 1: I could I had he get taken that one for

356
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: a while. But I'm zigging where you think I'm gonna zag, man,

357
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: I'm zigging. I'm zigging because even a lot of announcers

358
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: never got Luke quetch lie if you're a Hall of Famer.

359
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: And Adam Vinatieri. So it's not a complete bias against

360
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: the Patriarchs. No, no, no, no, not apparently Apparently Adam Vanity,

361
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: like what kind of information you're gonna get. They're gonna

362
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,959
Speaker 1: rush you. So kick it between the uprights, that right,

363
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: get the ball off before it's all laces out, Get

364
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: the ball up. So Drew Brees, Live Fitzgerald, Roger Craig,

365
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: Luke Keikley, Adam Vanity are your Pro Football Hall of Fame.

366
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 1: What about Daniel Craig. Daniel Craig, he is a James

367
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 1: Bond Hall of Famer. He's also, if you ask my wife,

368
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: he is a walking on the beach in his bathing

369
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: suit Hall of Famer. He's also that people. You know,

370
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: Is that the same movie with Halle Berry? I no,

371
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: I think that was the first? Was it the was

372
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: that the first James Bond that he did? Now it's

373
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: the first James Bond? Was she in the first James

374
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: Bond of the second? I don't know. He was not

375
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: in that scene. It was just it all just got

376
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: put on one of the streaming services. So slowly, my

377
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: daughter and I are just that. It's just a layer.

378
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: Kick was a great movie. Oh my god, Ben Kingsley,

379
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 1: Uh no, it was just him walking on the beach

380
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 1: by himself. Where you mean Trevor Slattery. If that happened, yes,

381
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: the Mandarin Yes, if that happened in real life, they

382
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 1: would tell him, dude, you need to cover yourself, put

383
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: a towel one. But it was a movie, so hey,

384
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: why it makes it? Well? Beaches are public places, there's

385
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: families there there. You get down towards the water at

386
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 1: your own risk. So the two biggest controversies here and

387
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: again I don't think there are. I have no problem.

388
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: You look vinitary putting kickers in the Hall of Fame.

389
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: That's difficult. But when you're talking about the most decorated,

390
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: most pressure kicker in the history of the NFL. That

391
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,719
Speaker 1: guy's got to go in the Hall of Fame, right,

392
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: It's not It's not like you're, well, we took a

393
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: couple of kickers here that were okay. You know, you

394
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,479
Speaker 1: took a guy who was widely considered to be the

395
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: best and most clutch kicker in the NFL. He has

396
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: the regular season plaudits, he's got the Super Bowl plaudits,

397
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: He's got game winning kicks in the super Bowl. If

398
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna take anybody, if you're gonna take a kicker,

399
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: kickers are hard, right, you don't get that many. You're

400
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: gonna take Adam Vinati. So I'm absolutely okay with him

401
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: getting it, even though he's probably the most controversial, like

402
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: Luke Keickley, if he played another few years, But what

403
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 1: do you want? The guy was a six time Pro

404
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,199
Speaker 1: Bowler in All Pro and then injuries cut his career short.

405
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: He was fantastic, right, He played a position that you

406
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: don't get to play very long in the NFL. Like

407
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: all these guys that got in, Yeah, I get it

408
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: for all of them. And he's a guy that probably

409
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: gets dinged for folks going to who's that guy? Because

410
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: he played for a team. Nobody cares. Yeah, no, I don't.

411
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: Luke Keigley, he played in it for that long? Really

412
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 1: okay Panthers, Okay, that's great. Uh. And Roger Craig gets it. Now,

413
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: Roger Craig plays into the big controversy of the week

414
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: because Roger Craig was the winner in the senior category

415
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: that got enough votes to get in. Remember it was

416
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: Roger Craig, Else Greenwood, Ken Anderson, Bill Belichick, and Bob Kraft,

417
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: and the way the votes had to come in. We

418
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: knew right away that Belichick didn't make it. It was leaked.

419
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 1: We knew Bob Kraft didn't make it. That was leaked.

420
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: And Roger Craig got in. And honestly, if you had

421
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 1: said to me before this, you know, the whole voting

422
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 1: process came up, you're going random guys, go Roger Craig,

423
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,680
Speaker 1: I would say, he he's already and it should have

424
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: been in. So Roger Craig gets in. But I go

425
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: back to this because this is what for everybody who

426
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: wants to argue for Belichick and argue for Bob Kraft.

427
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 1: And I mean really, I don't think you can put

428
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: an owner in the Hall of Fame. Come on, man,

429
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: s that's just stuff. Jerry and Craft should go in

430
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 1: for the same reason of not only dominance on the field.

431
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: Sure than Jerry did, but he meant as much in

432
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 1: those power broker meetings to get a team, two teams

433
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: to LA and all the extra expansion of dollars. Those

434
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: two guys were pivotal. Yeah, no, they were important to

435
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: the game. They were important to the game. But to

436
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: enshrine them in the Pro Football Hall of Fame with

437
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 1: the players to sacrifice their lives and their bodies when

438
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: these guys had used their money, I'm okay with them

439
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: that much. I'm okay with that. But that's the whole thing.

440
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 1: And I keep going back to this for Roger Craig

441
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: getting in, right, he was the one that got the votes,

442
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 1: got the forty out of fifty votes to get in.

443
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: And I keep going back to this, what the late

444
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: John Clayton would always tell me, No matter what you

445
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: see in a voting process, coaches, owners, front office executives,

446
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 1: whatever it is, the players get in first. And that's

447
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 1: why it's so hard for coaches and front office executives

448
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 1: and owners to get in because there's always deserving players.

449
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 1: The players get in first, and so then that's what

450
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 1: you can see with this vote. Okay, Roger Craig got it.

451
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: The other guys didn't, So okay, understand else Green would

452
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: played in. You know, in the seventies and early eighties.

453
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: Roger Craig was more in the nineties and the and

454
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers era of excellence in Super Bowl.

455
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: So yeah, the Veterans Committee probably more familiar with his

456
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: career than anybody else. Ken Anderson again, seventies eighties, he had,

457
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,040
Speaker 1: he had the MVP year when they went to the

458
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. So yeah, you're looking at Roger Craig in

459
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: that sweet spot of the nineties where his career is

460
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 1: still somewhat familiar to everyone. And quite honestly, when you

461
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: look back at this vote and you see that Roger

462
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: Craig gets in, I can understand the voter saying, Hmmm,

463
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: here's a team that won Super Bowls but was ridden

464
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: in scandal for the last twenty years. The head coach

465
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: and the owner, head coach on the field, off the field,

466
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: owner off the field. Yeah, protect the shield, all of that.

467
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: It's really not surprising that they didn't get in, because

468
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 1: we go back to the beginning when Belichick didn't get in.

469
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: We first found this out a few days ago. I said, yeah,

470
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 1: you can agree or disagree with the fact that voters

471
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: might want to put him out there for a year,

472
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have a penalty for you to not

473
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: get in. I'm gonna wait a year because the Spy Game,

474
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: bobcraft Obbly had his issues off the field too. But

475
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,199
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be surprised at it because I know, I

476
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,919
Speaker 1: know what humans are like, I know what voters are like.

477
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: I know how it's going to be a big deal

478
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 1: for some people. And this is going to be where

479
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 1: I wheeld this power because Spy Game was really bad

480
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 1: for me or boy he you know, Bob Belichick treated

481
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: people terribly. Okay, you can agree or disagree if it's

482
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: right or wrong, but it's not unexpected. So to see

483
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: a voter say, yeah, here's a great dynasty, but boy

484
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: we got questions and boy they both have issues. Yeah,

485
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: not voting them in this year, I am not surprised,

486
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: not surprised that they didn't get in, and that Roger

487
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: Craig got in. This is something that yeah, I was

488
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 1: hoping more of the players would get in. I was

489
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: hoping Elsie GREENO would get in because you talk to

490
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: anybody that covered football in the seventy he was the

491
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,719
Speaker 1: most underrated guy on that team. Elsie green was one

492
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,679
Speaker 1: of the top linebackers that ever lived, right, And so

493
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: you know, I wish he would have gotten into, but

494
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: he didn't. Put at least Roger Craig got in. Yeah,

495
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 1: he get one of the three. And that's the other

496
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: part is getting a full assessment of how those votes

497
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: broke down, right, fifty voters, three votes each, how much

498
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: how dispersed were those right? How spread out to where

499
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: it's becomes the three players, you know, cannibalize each other,

500
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: or like you had our friend in Kansas City who said, well,

501
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: I'm voting for all three players, so you take away

502
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: from the Belichick and Craft votes in that regard. So

503
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: and although I believe he said he voted for Kraft,

504
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 1: but you get my point. The idea that since you

505
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 1: have to split them this way, I'd be curious how

506
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: close each of the other four were two enshrinement and

507
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 1: how many the last second, maybe you all right, you

508
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,120
Speaker 1: convinced me I want my dollar back out a reservoir

509
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 1: dogs kind of explanation about tipping with the cheating scandals

510
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 1: and how much you put an emphasis on those in

511
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: your voting. Now, what's curious, and we've talked about it already,

512
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: but it makes mentioned here for those that didn't vote

513
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: for either Craft or Belichick, maybe it's both, Maybe maybe

514
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 1: Kraft they take it to your end of and maybe

515
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: just the owner doesn't belong, Like even if we've been

516
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: shrying them in the past, this is silly. Let's not

517
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: do this. Let's make sure we get the deserving players

518
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: in and then get to the coach because you got

519
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: a backlog of coaches that needs to be addressed at

520
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: some point, as these guys age. You already addressed it

521
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 1: in one way by cutting the weight time, but you

522
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: look at the players that end up getting it Roger

523
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: Craig last played in nineteen ninety three, Like, that's a

524
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: whole other part of this. But for Belichick, if you've

525
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: decided he's out, then he's got to stay out. Whether

526
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 1: it's eleven voters, fifteen voters, twenty voters. Don't come back

527
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 1: to me with this first ballot nonsense. Last I saw

528
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 1: nobody's getting a Coleman, Domingo clitter jacket out a running man.

529
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: If you're a first ballot Hall of Famer, now look

530
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: at it. And this is the thing, is that to

531
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: understand the voting, not to make excuses for the voters,

532
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 1: but we're more obsessed with this guy getting in the ballot,

533
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,479
Speaker 1: getting a first ballot Hall of Famer. Right, We're more

534
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 1: obsessed with that. And you hear the same things from voters.

535
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: When you're a Hall of Famer. It doesn't matter if

536
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,880
Speaker 1: you're first ballot, last ballot, you're a Hall of Fame

537
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 1: unless you're Deion Sanders, right. But the whole thing with

538
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: the with the voters is that they're not looking at

539
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 1: just what do we see this year? Who are we

540
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: voting for for the Hall of Fame? Right, because the

541
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: voting process is so complicated, they're looking at, okay, the

542
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,920
Speaker 1: next four years, who are we going to be able

543
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:23,919
Speaker 1: to vote for. Who do we have to get in.

544
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: Who's going to be in their last chance to get

545
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 1: in that we got to make sure we get in.

546
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 1: So it's all about when the year comes up, who's

547
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: in your class with you? Is not major League base

548
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: where okay, you can vote for ten guys, and this

549
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 1: guy's in this design, this guy's in. No, this is

550
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 1: this is much different. Now. It's a bad voting system,

551
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: and I'm sure it will be overhauled at the end

552
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: of the at the end of this cycle of voting,

553
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: But understand that they're thinking about what do we how

554
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: do we do this the next four or five years.

555
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: I want to make sure player X, Y, Z, A, B,

556
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: and C get in. And if it's not, voting for

557
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: Belichick and Craft here because it's the last chance for

558
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 1: Roger Craig to get in, I'm voting for Roger Craig

559
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 1: and so the other guys aren't going to get my votes.

560
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: So understand that the voters have more at stake and

561
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,119
Speaker 1: they're thinking about more than just Okay, here's a guy

562
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: that should be in this year. X on my box.

563
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 1: I'm turning my ballot. Yeah, And it's two separate things

564
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 1: just for folks. As you look at the list of

565
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: guys and say, well, why were we just talking, He's like, no, no, no,

566
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 1: You've got your senior candidates, you've got your coaches, and

567
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: you've got your contributors that nebulous. Let's grab everybody else.

568
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: And then you've got your modern day, which is a

569
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: whole other cluster of trying to get through but building

570
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:35,679
Speaker 1: out that grid. If you're a voter, it's no longer

571
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: about is this guy deserving her? And I was like, well,

572
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 1: he's got a better shot next year, so let's just

573
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: get this guy in this year. Let's make sure that

574
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: we reserve one of our votes going forward into that process.

575
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 1: And it's just a curious run. But the way this

576
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: is done and the way they reconstituted the veterans side

577
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: of it is just to joke like, here, I've got

578
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 1: three players, here's the apples, and then we got these

579
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 1: two guys, whatever fruit you want to wade to them.

580
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 1: So I compare them to the accomplishments of a coach

581
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: or how much money they made us. This doesn't make

582
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: any sense. Exit out by to Frasca, Exit swollen down

583
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 1: the Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.

584
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: Have you ever wiped the piece of dry toilet paper

585
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 1: and wondered as this as good as it gets? Well,

586
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: it's not switched to life changing wet extra large flushable

587
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: dude wipes because wet or just clean's better available at

588
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 1: Amazon and at major retailers nationwide dude wipes best clean

589
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 1: pants down time out to find out what's trending in

590
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 1: the wide world of sports from someone who Tiffany Hattish

591
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: once introduced as Monseille Belanos.

592
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 5: It's Monzi Bolangos, as as Calvin Washington has done in

593
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 5: the past.

594
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: Right now, Monzie Bologna's.

595
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 2: Thank you so much.

596
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 5: You're gonna you're messing me up, Jason, because now I'm

597
00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 5: like purposely miss saying people's names and things because it's funny.

598
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but you're now you're screaming me over.

599
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 5: So if I say something wrong, it's gonna be your fault.

600
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: Had right, Well, I remember the very first night you

601
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: worked with us, do you know? And I didn't know

602
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: And I didn't know you the first night and we

603
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 1: were working from home, right because we were still before

604
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: we had come in from the pandemic. We're coming every

605
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 1: night for a pandemic. And I said to Ryan Bershing,

606
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: I said, all right, so who's on update? So she's

607
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: brand new Moncey and he's trying to figure out Moncey Bolanos.

608
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:26,920

762
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 1: just standing there the whole time. Bella, the right guy

763
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: won the MVP. Right. Matthew Stafford had a much better

764
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: year than Drake May did. People got caught up with

765
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: the storyline with Drake May again. The Patriots played games

766
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: against eleven teams. Eleven games they played against teams that

767
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: fired their head coach at the end of the year

768
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: or during the season. That's a pretty easy and the

769
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: Jets twice, Okay, remember that, and the Jets twice. Not

770
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: saying Drake May is not a really good quarterback. He is,

771
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: but he wasn't even close to doing what Matthew Stafford did.

772
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 1: But here's the desire, the media's desire. We want the

773
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: next Tom Brady. We want the next Brady. We're dying

774
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,800
Speaker 1: for it now. And clearly the bias some media voters

775
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 1: have isn't towards the Patriots in general, because Drake May

776
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: can almost win the MVP, while Bill Belichick and Bobcraft

777
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,280
Speaker 1: cannot get elected to the Hall of Fame. So clearly

778
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: I can kind of delineate between Patriots. I want to

779
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 1: vote for it, but I don't want to vote for

780
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 1: But this vote was way too close. Well, sanitary got

781
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 1: into the Hall of Fame. I mean he only was

782
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 1: affected by however pervasive You thought the cheating was overall, Well,

783
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: we got thirty one touchdowns against eight picks for Drake

784
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: May on the year, seventy two percent completion, about forty

785
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: four hundred yards, add another four point fifty rushing and

786
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: four touchdown. It's a pretty good year with a lot

787
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 1: of wins. It's look, he had a great he's terrific,

788
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: But you're talking about MVP and you're talking about a

789
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 1: storyline in a narrative more than what happened on the field. Right,

790
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: and again, you think this doesn't happen. What do we

791
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 1: have voters do? Last year, the same voters who voted

792
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson AP Offensive Player of the Year voted Josh

793
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:23,839
Speaker 1: Allen MVP. How is that? How is that entire? Well?

794
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 1: I thought, so, don't tell me. People don't vote with Hey,

795
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 1: this is what I think. This is the spin I

796
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 1: want to put on the award, not who I actually

797
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,720
Speaker 1: think is the MVP. But again, they won fourteen games.

798
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 1: Rams were a wildcard. You won fourteen games. We're gonna

799
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: dis miss that, and right, I mean, we can carve

800
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 1: it up all we want. Yes, they played a bad schedule.

801
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: You still have to beat them. Yeah, Oh they did

802
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,359
Speaker 1: so convincingly. Yeah, okay they did. Matthew Stafford had had

803
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: the better season. Every metric he had the bet and

804
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: it wasn't closed. Every metric Matthew Stafford had was better

805
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: than Drake May. But you're talking about a Patriots team

806
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 1: that was dead. Yeah, yeah, and he brought them back

807
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: to life. This was Lazarus. I'm not saying you can

808
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 1: sing the David Bowie version. You're not saying he could

809
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: get a little something out of some other biblical saint.

810
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 1: She was not a worthy finalist. This should not have

811
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,320
Speaker 1: been this close. It should not have been one person

812
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 1: voting one way and suddenly Drake Mays the MVP. It

813
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,399
Speaker 1: should not have been that star studied team, not star

814
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: studyed team. Mike Verbal, I mean, did a hell of

815
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 1: a job coaching them up, as did Josh McDaniels and

816
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 1: j mcdandy, not Matt Dowalls McDonald's. Sean McVay also did

817
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 1: a great job. But you expected them to be good

818
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 1: as soon as the fugazy back injury was was bushed

819
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: to the side. And for everybody who thinks Matthew Stafford

820
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 1: could take this MVP and right off into the sunset,

821
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,360
Speaker 1: he just said he is coming back for next season

822
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: to the NFL. He made his four little girls cry. Matthews,

823
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 1: he thought daddy was coming home. He's your MVP, He's

824
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 1: coming back to the NFL. We got more in the

825
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: big NFL Honors night, and oh, by the way, the

826
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: NBA trade deadline. More about the players who didn't get

827
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 1: dealt and the ones who did. Fox thigh after a

828
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 1: drive and a jab step and the ball getting knocked

829
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: out of his hands, it's a fifty one two lead

830
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: for the seventy six ers, but Luca had a tough

831
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: time moving. He was standing in the middle of the

832
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 1: floor while there was a time out, and very gingerly

833
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 1: he walked off the floor to get examined Jason Laker's

834
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 1: trade deadline day. Luca just left the court with an

835
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: injury for the one I'm being told he went to

836
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 1: grab a beer. Oh okay, then he's fine. Then just

837
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: had to make it look bad. I'm not gonna make

838
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: it look bad. If I'm gonna grab a beer, it's

839
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: not bad. You go back, you get the little electro

840
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 1: stimulation on the muscle, and then you come back after

841
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: the second half. Sure, yeah, you get a nice half

842
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 1: hour break here with forty seven left in the second quarter,

843
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 1: down eight figure. Hey, you guys got this for a while.

844
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 1: I'll go relax and we'll be get ready to go

845
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 1: for the second half. So we'll keep an eye on

846
00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: lucat dunk kick and how he's done. Real, I'm just

847
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,840
Speaker 1: gonna do this all night. It's just so great. Tiffany

848
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: Hattish has given us so much material. It's gold. It's gold.

849
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: Jerry's just remember gold. It's gold. Just like you know,

850
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 1: you've had legends like Jordan or Kobe saying, hey, someone

851
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 1: might be seeing me for the first maybe the last time. Yeah, yeah,

852
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: someone may be listening to you the first or last

853
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: time when you mispronounce a name and decide you're an idiot.

854
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,760
Speaker 1: So the Lakers not to be led tonight by Lebron

855
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 1: who is it? Who is it? Lebron Hummus and Austin

856
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 1: Reavs might be the ones that have to lead the thing.

857
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: I'm nervous now and I'm gonna do the mispronunciations on

858
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 1: the fly that I say something that is of course

859
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 1: compliant with broadcast. Oh, I can't wait for that, Like

860
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: I'm hoping I don't say, you know, say something, Oh

861
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 1: I couldn't smell one of the standards. Is it only

00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: in English, your known language, or you know, you try

863
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 1: to say something in that's a little blue and another

864
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,759
Speaker 1: language that do you get ding the same? But look,

865
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,080
Speaker 1: we've still you plead ignorance that way. I mean, I

866
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,360
Speaker 1: don't know now, Look we've stayed away from the whole

868

Speaker 1: But it's flying later, Yeah, it is flying. It's flying.

00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:42,879
Speaker 1: How big is it? Jane?

880

00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: And the thing is the facts of this make the

883
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: story bigger. Really Yeah. I don't if you know that

884
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,400

Speaker 1: York Times had it. Yeah, yes, yes, yes, yes, I

886
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: see if there's a anything of are like there was not.

887
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I had lots of stuff going through my

888
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 1: head right now. I got to make sure it's all. Okay,

889
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 1: you're still distracted to get clarity, what do you say?

890
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: I wonder after they do it, if they get clarity,

891
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 1: I'm sure they do find the meaning of life. Yeah,

892
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,879
Speaker 1: there you go. Yeah, uh no, I'm not gonna say

893
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: knowing back to Taylor problem. I'm going back to Matthew

894
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,919
Speaker 1: Stafford right now. Uh, that's right. Think about him on

895
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,840
Speaker 1: that stage, his four little girls looking up when Adam admiration.

896
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford's your NFL MVP. In a vote that was

897
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 1: way closer than it should have been. But hey, voters

898
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 1: like the storyline. They want to anoint the next Tom

899
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 1: Brady'll Mat Jones. Guy. We tried, we couldn't with mac Jones,

900
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 1: we couldn't make it all. But now yeah, with Drake May.

901
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,760
Speaker 1: So let's let's make this vote closer. One first place

902
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 1: vote was the difference five points overall, right, three sixty

903
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 1: six to three sixty one. But Staffords're MVP, and he

904
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,480
Speaker 1: announces with his kids on stage, he is coming back

905
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: for another year to the NFL. Here's Stafford moments ago.

906
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 1: You're newly minted NFL VOP. Can't wait for you to

907
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,720
Speaker 1: cheer me on next year when we're out there kicking ass.

00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 1: just stupid. I'll tell you what he didn't catch. Yeah,

913
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,319
Speaker 1: a lady falling off the stage. Oh, come on, too

914
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: soon for that soon, that's too soon for that. Too soon.

915
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 1: How do you know what didn't happen there? So well,

916
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 1: I didn't see it. Nobody fell off the stage. I watched.

917
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 1: I watched nobody fell off that you know that I

918
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:44,040
Speaker 1: know of, Yes, nobody fell off. Look, of course he's

919
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 1: coming back, right, this is a chance to make even

920
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 1: more money because you're coming off an MVP season. Really

921
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 1: coming into this year, I am sure the RAMS philosophy

922
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,040
Speaker 1: was Okay, we got Stafford. This is going to be

923
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: it because you know, Sean mcvagh was done with the whole.

924
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: Every year he kind of dances whether or not he

925
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 1: wants to get the you know, stay of play another

926
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,640
Speaker 1: year or not. He's trying to get more money out

927
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 1: of us. And Sean McVeigh very vehemently last year is like,

928
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: we're not gonna do this every We're not gonna do this.

929
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 1: In not gonna do this again. Thinking that I'm gonna

930
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 1: get a year from Matthew Stafford. That's gonna be like

931
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 1: the last couple, right, He'll start out slow, it'll end great.

932
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 1: Matthew is still a better quarterback for this team than

933
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 1: just about anybody I can go get. But now he

934
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 1: goes and wins MVP. So now everything changes for the

935
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,120
Speaker 1: Rams because now it's gonna be at least a two

936
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,479
Speaker 1: year deal with tons of guaranteed money. I am sure

937
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 1: that's what it's gonna be for him to come back

938
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 1: and play again. Now he's not forty five, he's thirty seven,

939
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,439
Speaker 1: so and he's coming off an MVP year, So okay,

940
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:41,799
Speaker 1: you got to think he's got another year or two

941
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 1: and it in. But now instead of hey, we're gonna

942
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: do this year to year, we gotta worry about, you know,

943
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 1: inching along money wise. Now it's got to be a

944
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 1: ton of cash because you wanted to goo shape for

945
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 1: guy coming off win an NFL MVP. His wife has

946
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 1: already said in the pest, the Rams don't want to

947
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,359
Speaker 1: pay us. We're out. We love it here, but we'll go.

948
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:01,280
Speaker 1: So I don't think it's gonna quite get that acrimonious,

949
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 1: but you know that thread is out there. It's gonna

950
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 1: be tons of money. It's gonna be two years, eighty

951
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,839
Speaker 1: million at least to bring Matthew Stafford back next year. Well,

952
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 1: which is what he just to add. He had a

953
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 1: two year, eighty four million dollar deal. He's on the

954
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 1: books right now for twenty twenty six. They had the

955
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 1: potential out but as it stands, sixteen million base signing

956
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: bonus of twelve million, a bit of restructuring that's four million,

957
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:28,800
Speaker 1: and then the options run on down and those actually

958
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 1: go through twenty thirty as it currently stands, with a

959
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 1: reduction each year. As to what it is against the cap,

960
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,800
Speaker 1: we know the cap went up twenty plus million dollars.

961
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 1: The estimate somewhere between three oh one and three oh

962
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:44,000
Speaker 1: four for this coming year. But yeah, you'll you'll reup it.

963
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 1: You just reup snead and McVeigh. So I'm sure it's

964
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 1: all in a package deal. It's like, all right, we'll

965
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 1: get at least one or two runs with Stafford and

966
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: what this current construction of that offense is, which is

967
00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 1: highly impressive, particularly if you have the red zone threat

968
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:04,400
Speaker 1: that Devontae Adams is, all those tight ends running thirteen personnel,

969
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 1: double headed backfield. You need more from Blake gorm maybe

970
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,840
Speaker 1: he as a you know, another option to Kiraen Williams.

971
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 1: Maybe you see a little more balanced there. But for

972
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:18,439
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, the only question was the back injury, which

973
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 1: we talked about in the preseason. I'm like, I think

974
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 1: this is more a veteran that just doesn't want to

975
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:25,480
Speaker 1: go to work just yet. And sure enough, here we

976
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,439
Speaker 1: are with the MVP season and less wear and tear.

977
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,120
Speaker 1: See he told you didn't have to show up when

978
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,880
Speaker 1: I needed to show up. Look at this, But I mean,

979
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 1: that's part of the frustration if you're a Sean McVay,

980
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 1: not just getting the contract signed, also the are you

981
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 1: gonna are you gonna practice today? Hey, Matthew, you think

982
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,560
Speaker 1: you'll join us? I don't think I need practice. No

983
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,840
Speaker 1: practice practice, I don't think I need practice. Jimmy to

984
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,520
Speaker 1: mean he can take those reps. By the way, seven

985
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:53,360
Speaker 1: conference title games in his career for Jimmy Garoppolo, how

986
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:56,520
Speaker 1: about that? How many did you play in? Does that matter?

987
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,439
Speaker 1: The hell you're trying to ruin play?

988
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:01,400
Speaker 2: He's a wizard.

989
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:05,240
Speaker 1: He's instrumental to their success. Now, AD is a wizard.

990
00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 1: Now remember AD is a wizard.

991
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 2: You're a wizard.

992
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 1: AD actually won. I don't think you played, but you

993
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:13,279
Speaker 1: know it's just for Matthew Stafford. Yeah, it's you gotta

994
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,839
Speaker 1: run it back. The game's at so far next year,

995
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 1: so you at least have to to bring the band

996
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 1: back for one more run. But that to me when

997
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 1: it says, it changes everything for the Rams, because I'm

998
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,919
Speaker 1: sure the Rams thought of, Okay, we're gonna go get

999
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 1: our next quarterback in the in either in the draft

1000
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:30,800
Speaker 1: this year or more than likely they'll make a trade

1001
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 1: and go get somebody that Sean McVay says, you know what,

1002
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:36,359
Speaker 1: I can make this guy work, right, Sean McVay, he's

1003
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,439
Speaker 1: been the best coach in the NFL for a long time.

1004
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 1: Out we'd go over the past five or six years.

1005
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:43,399
Speaker 1: Other guys are having tremendous runs as well, but McVeigh,

1006
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: you know, they make the big swings, and it was

1007
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: it would have been time for another. Okay, maybe it's

1008
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,640
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, maybe it's somebody else. Maybe it's somebody we

1009
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:55,080
Speaker 1: go maybe I could make two a work, you know

1010
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 1: here in in in La. Whatever it was gonna be,

1011
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 1: you knew there was gonna be a bold move for them,

1012
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 1: that they're gonna get them younger at the position and

1013
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,800
Speaker 1: maybe not spending as much money. But now this changes that.

1014
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 1: Not that you thought that Matthew Stafford wasn't coming back,

1015
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,239
Speaker 1: but I mean it now you still you'll all have

1016
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,319
Speaker 1: to worry about, you know, putting the team around him.

1017
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 1: And now unless Stafford says, hey, I'll take less, There's

1018
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 1: not been one moment in his career where Matthew Stafford

1019
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 1: has said, hey, I'll take less. He left on that way, Hey, no, no,

1020
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna pay me, man. He wanted. He was holding

1021
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: out just to kind of just just kind of just

1022
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 1: just squeeze whatever cash you could get out of the Rams.

1023
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,879
Speaker 1: The next last couple of years, this guy's gonna clear

1024
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,359
Speaker 1: a billion dollars in NFL salary by the time he's

1025
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,200
Speaker 1: done playing. It's gonna be. It's gonna be money, man,

1026
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna be. It might be something like a two

1027
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: year eighty million, but it's all guaranteed, or or two

1028
00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:46,360
Speaker 1: year eighty five million, fifty million this year, but an

1029
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,799
Speaker 1: option for thirty five million for the year after. Like,

1030
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot of money. It's gonna be

1031
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 1: more money than they've paid him to bring him back

1032
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 1: next year. All of a sudden, this changes everything for

1033
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: the Rams, as they try to stay a super Bowl

1034
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 1: caliber team for next year. The last two year contract

1035
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: he signed eighty four million, eighty of it guaranteed. So

1036
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 1: you're looking at that and the price of poker's gone up, right,

1037
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,840
Speaker 1: We've we've seen it just in the even with a

1038
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 1: couple of the quarterbacks you mentioned as possible reclamation projects.

1039
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,600
Speaker 1: I always would advise Sean McVeigh in this regard, don't

1040
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 1: fly too close to the sun. He's also had some

1041
00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:25,759
Speaker 1: in game decisions that I would have liked to ask

1042
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:26,360
Speaker 1: in the moment.

1043
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:27,040
Speaker 2: Uh.

1044
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure he would have a great answer thought out

1045
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 1: as to why and the rationale and everything else. But

1046
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: that's fine. So you're all going wax wings, flight of

1047
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:38,840
Speaker 1: vicarous Iron Maiden. Okay, yeah, okay, little little gutter twins

1048
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 1: in there, do do do do do? Do? Do? Do?

1049
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:40,920
Speaker 3: Do?

1050
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 2: Do?

1051
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 1: Do? You go on? You have to do that? Do

1052
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,440
Speaker 1: you do? Maybe once my kids are both off to college,

1053
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 1: I'll just buy a guitar and that'll be I spend

1054
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:49,839
Speaker 1: my days off a peace of mind. You're going off

1055
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: of piece. But from Matthew Stafford, perhaps some of the

1056
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 1: detractors back off a little bit. After the MVP Award

1057
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:04,399
Speaker 1: certainly a fantastic season, but can't get the get them

1058
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,440
Speaker 1: over game of inches here and there and everywhere, and

1059
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:11,280
Speaker 1: it's it's a long off season. Yeah, it's great to say, hey,

1060
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 1: let's run it back. Catch yourself because you don't curt.

1061
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 1: You curse about and you're near curse about having to

1062
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,440
