Well, but I mean the 22 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: big blow would have come after any adjustments were made, 23 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 1: so you tried to gain an advantage. Maybe you did, 24 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: but it was neutralized as to how you were replacing 25 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: parabolic microphones around and causing issues. And then you had 26 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: the three run homer.

You get a terrible strike, a 37 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: third strike call against Bryce Harper, which I would have 38 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: been tapping my helmet immediately. Uh yeah, come on, come on, 39 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: and he went down and then took the the l 40 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: on that one. And then you have the big three 41 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: run blow to make it a ten to three game, 42 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: and you're still not happy.

And like I told you about 59 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: the time that I left Pam sunroof opening it rained 60 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: and she said, let's not talk today, And I was like, 61 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: I understand that that really was only a one day. 62 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: It was a one day thing. We were supposed to 63 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: be together, That's why. But like there's certain times, but 64 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: you know, just just you're not just you know, you 65 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: dumping out the entire relationship, right, It's like, Okay, certain 66 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,399 Speaker 1: days are a little bit more tougher than the other, 67 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: but it shows you the relationship and how strong this 68 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: has been a fifty year relationship I've had with the Mets. 69 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: A lot of ups and downs, a lot of downs, 70 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: mostly downs, a lot of bad times again sometimes relationship. 71 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm in it as long as 72 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: I am, but now I'm feeling pretty good. The Mets 73 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: are killing the Phillies, two young star pitchers are on 74 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: the way. Generation K and twenty twenty five is here again, 75 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: and I'm all right, you know what we're gonna need 76 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: to do. Though for us, it's just like we did 77 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: with that last run of generational pictures from the Mets. 78 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to walk him through it. Oh, it 79 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: didn't work out great. The last Generation K were well, no, 80 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: but that was that was what they were supposed to be, 81 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: all those guys the Dark Night and yeah, like we 82 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: combined the Marvel and see us. Supposedly, it's a lot 83 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: of supposed to be supposed to be. And now we'll 84 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: get to supposed to be in a second. But I 85 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: do want to say this, You want to hot take 86 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: right off the bat and want of Frostberg your greatest 87 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: favorite players of all time. So tonight cal Rawley hit 88 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: his fiftieth home run of the year for the Marinis. Right, 89 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: fifty home runs by a catcher. And we're in the 90 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: middle of August, okay, or I always try to say, 91 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: we're in the latter stages of August. But we still 92 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: have a few days left to go, right, we still 93 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: got six days left another week basically, And he's got 94 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: fifty home runs, he's got one hundred and seven RBIs 95 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: right now now he's hitting two fifty. But okay, when 96 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: it's all said and done, Okay, you want to talk 97 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: about seeing history. Cal Raley is going to have the 98 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: second best season by a catcher in the history of baseball, 99 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: behind Mike Piazza's nineteen ninety seven when he hit three 100 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: seventy forty home runs and one hundred and twenty five 101 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: RBI like that, no matter how you want to And 102 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: I think his war was like nine or ten or 103 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: something insane like that. But you look at the great season, 104 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: you know, seasons by catchers throughout history. Okay, this is 105 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: gonna be something else, he's gonna hit sixty home runs, right, 106 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: Like that's he's good. By the time he's done, he's 107 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: gonna sixt year. One's gonna knock in one hundred and 108 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: twenty five one hundred and thirty runs. Yeah, he's gonna 109 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: hit two fifty ish, But you're talking about sixty and 110 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty RBIs like Piazza. Yeah, he's gonna 111 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: have more home runs and a couple more RBIs Piazza, 112 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: But Piazza is gonna hundred point higher. So I can't 113 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: sit here and say, okay, but second best season all 114 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: time behind Piazza in ninety seven. That's how good a 115 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: year that that's the historic year that cal Rawly is having. 116 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: Go back to some of the greats of all time, 117 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: and immediately you go back to some of the seasons 118 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: Hovey Lopez had, Johnny Bench obviously a forty five home 119 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: run season back in nineteen seventy or home runs, and 120 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: certainly the catching position, right, and that's the thing, like 121 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: the weight that you put on the position through the years. 122 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: We talked about it, the passing of Ryan Sandberg h 123 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: and the dearth of big time hitting second second baseman. 124 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 1: That we have Probagion, Oh yes, basically am and Joe Morgan, right, 125 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: and a bunch of guys. Otherwise it was an out 126 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: in the lineup catching position, the same thing, Johnny Bench 127 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: being like an outlier, and then Piazza coming along, and 128 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: you had a few guys through the years, no question. 129 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: But what cal Raley's been able to do night in, 130 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: night out, it's the did he homer tonight? Did that 131 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: website go up for this season yet? As cal Homber 132 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 1: tonight Homer? Yeah, So now we've you have fifty home runs, 133 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 1: the MVP odds getting shorter by the day for Aaron 134 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: Judge right now still the favorite at sixty six percent 135 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: implied odds and by the end of tonight, and I'm 136 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: gonna guess that gets a little bit more in the 137 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: cal Raley books as we go. So it's curious to 138 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: watch that on a nightly basis as well. I mean, 139 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: the fifty is a big number, and it's the kind 140 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: of again, when you're talking about a sixty one to 141 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: thirty type year that he's gonna wind up having. Yeah, 142 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: but batting average is not what it used to be. 143 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: Like batting average twenty thirty years ago. It was everything. 144 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: But but I can't, I can't. I can't discount Piazza 145 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: hitting three seven, No man, and Piazza had the back acne. 146 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: Come on, he did he did? He did? He did? 147 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: He did. I was waiting, waiting to address that, that 148 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: elephant in the room as it was. 149 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 2: That ball. 150 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: I think it's in the catcher's glove. Nope, but sailing 151 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: in the right field scene, How did he do that? 152 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: I don't understand. It was Oh, that's stress. Yes he was, 153 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: That's right, he was, he was, And then he remembered 154 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: the end of his career. He tried to eat. He 155 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: wasn't good enough to catch anymore, like the beginning of 156 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: the World Baseball Classic, and he tried to play for Italy. Yeah, 157 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: he was like, hey, I think I can get on 158 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: the field if I play for Italy. So I'm gonna 159 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: go and pretend Tom you know, no, I'm iteal you now, everybody, 160 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: I'm his Last night's Piazza. He dressed, he dressed like 161 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,679 Speaker 1: he was straight out of supermarket. And then he bought 162 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: a soccer club at one point, Yes, yes, and all 163 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: of those things. So yeah, I mean there's a lot 164 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: going on, but that is I mean that is something 165 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: you want to talk about seeing history and seeing a 166 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: season that's just I mean, it's it's it sucks because 167 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: it's on the West Coast. Most of the games are late, 168 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: and you know, you read about it more. You still 169 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: see the hollyge you still get it, but you don't 170 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: get it as much as because you know, cal Rally's 171 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: not a not a Yankee, he's not a Dodger, he's 172 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: not a Philly and his games are late at night 173 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: you kind of read about the next day. So there's 174 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of a down. You know, it's not 175 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: as it's not as big a deal in the in 176 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: the public main France. 177 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: Up. 178 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: Here's another home run for for cal Rally, another home run. 179 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: But I mean, really, he's gonna go down second best 180 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: season by a catcher ever in I mean in the 181 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 1: history of baseball. I mean that that's the kind of 182 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: YE mean, say, I mean sixty, He's gonna have sixty 183 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: home Now, Now something's gonna happen. He's not gonna play, 184 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: He's gonna get into some kind of contract dispute and 185 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: say I'm not playing again until I get all this money. 186 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: But I mean he's gonna I mean sixty home runs 187 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 1: for a catcher six? Was that your way of obliquely 188 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: getting the w NBA lockout in? Man? How about that 189 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: for you? I mean that's that's something, But I mean 190 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: also a switch hitter like that's the other part to it. Right. 191 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: It's one thing one side of the plate. But you know, 192 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of national run during the All Star 193 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: Game and the home run Derby and all of that 194 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: fun stuff, so you start putting a little bit of 195 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: a spotlight on him. He's on a squad that certainly 196 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: we pay attention to we're on air in these West 197 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: Coast games. And the tag team battle that he's got 198 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: going to Julio Rodriguez getting his swing back and power 199 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: numbers up the second half of the year. It's made 200 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: for great theater. And when you've got a nickname like 201 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,719 Speaker 1: the Big Dumper, I mean it's good for everybody. I mean, 202 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: look already most signing toilet seats for crying out. Well, 203 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: I'd sign out. I mean, i'd sign anything. Hey how 204 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: much twenty five bucks? I'm yeah, sure, here you go. 205 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: Whatever whatever you got right there, whatever you have, awesome, 206 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: gotta find every angle man, take every dollar off the 207 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: table that you can. I mean, it really is. I mean, 208 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: just to think about that kind of season that he 209 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: is having and and for the Mariners, it's like, Okay, 210 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: we really got to make a run here, right, Like, 211 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: we can't sit back and have the season go to waste. 212 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: I mean, well, I mean, he's never gonna have a 213 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: year like this a guy. I mean, look, you know, 214 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: I mean he's a terrific player, but this obviously it's 215 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: a career year for him. It's like, we can't, we 216 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: can't waste this thing, man, we gotta we gotta make 217 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: a run here. It's too bad that Kyle Schwarber isn't 218 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: still a catcher because him and the big dumper getting 219 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: after it. Come on, well, wait, wouldn't wouldn't Shwarber just 220 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: have to play like one inning of one game. He's 221 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: still a catcher. I'm a catcher. That's a catcher, always 222 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: a catcher. I'm a catcher. I'm a catcher again. You 223 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: want to talk about we look for a folk heroes, right, 224 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: I mean, that's it. And you gotta break through and 225 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: and cut through the noise. And that's why I bring 226 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: Schwarber up because he was a folk hero in Chicago 227 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: and he was a Catcher once upon a time. For 228 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: cal Rawley, we'll see how long he's behind the plate. 229 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: But we we get used to Otani and Judge and 230 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: back in the day Trout and mentioned Julio Rodriguez. You 231 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: look at Bobby Witt junior in case. You've got this 232 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: group of guys, and it's good to see other guys 233 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: break through, is all I'm trying to say. And cal 234 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: Raley being able to do that this year with a 235 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: fifty Burger coming off very strong twenty four fifty campaign 236 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: a Hamburger.

He is on Twitter 347 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: at Jason locking For Odyssey one oh five seven the 348 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: Fan in Baltimore, Washington Post Jay, what's happening man? 349 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 2: Happy Monday, A happy Monday to you guys as well. 350 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: So, uh, now we're getting close to cut down day 351 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: and obviously we saw a big well my big prediction 352 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: of the Brown starting five quarterbacks as years out the 353 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: window because they trade Kenny Pickett to the Raiders. 354 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 2: Uh. 355 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: Is there a big thing to take away from this 356 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: as far as how they feel about Gabriel and Sanders 357 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: or is this just hey, you know they had five 358 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: guys and now they got three. 359 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think we've talked about this in 360 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 2: the past. I expected, you know, Picket to be traded 361 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 2: when they drafted the two kids. That really didn't make 362 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 2: any sense to have him there. There's not enough high 363 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 2: end upside with him to start him right away. Right 364 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 2: that was always going to be black. Oh, I told 365 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 2: you guys that. And so once the draft plays out 366 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 2: like it does, do you really need a young ish 367 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 2: veteran there with it upside as well? It didn't make sense. 368 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 2: The trade might have happened sooner if not for his injuries. 369 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 2: And Watson isn't really a thing and isn't going to 370 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 2: play football this year. And you know, Snoop Huntley was 371 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: a get us over guy while they were running out 372 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 2: of body. So I think it's now back to what 373 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,959 Speaker 2: will probably be a much more traditional setup. And I 374 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 2: think all three probably have to play this year because 375 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 2: I don't think they can run the ball. I don't 376 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 2: think it's a particularly good offensive line anymore. I mean, 377 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 2: we were they three and fourteen last year. I think 378 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 2: they lost their final six games. It's going to be 379 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 2: a slog and uphill climb and it'll probably be all 380 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 2: hands on deck at the quarterback position. 381 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: What'd you make of all the noise coming out of 382 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: the final preseason game, the two minute drill, and the 383 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,040 Speaker 1: fact that Snowpuntley gets the call. I didn't think the 384 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: as much to be said of the you know, do 385 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: you gave him no chance and all of that, but 386 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: he was going to go work magic in the final 387 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: two minutes. It made for a very interesting forty eight hours. 388 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,959 Speaker 2: Well, I just think people like I don't know, if 389 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 2: they don't have anything else going on, like they don't 390 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 2: have interest outside of football. There's just no sense of 391 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 2: perspective with this. I mean, it seems like anything that's 392 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 2: remotely correlated to sure Door Sanders just going to create 393 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 2: outsized reactions. And then if it's things that are tangentially 394 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 2: related to him, like whatever Dylan Gabriel does, then anything 395 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 2: it touches, I guess we'll also have an equal reaction. 396 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 2: And it will also be just, you know, everything sort 397 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 2: of taken to extremes. Like these kids barely played NFL football. 398 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 2: It's going to be a growing process for both of them. 399 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 2: They both had moments where they looked really good, obviously 400 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 2: Gabriel more than Sadora Sanders, and that's going to happen 401 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 2: young quarterbacks who are going to look you know, good 402 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 2: to terrible and awfully wildly in their production from week 403 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,640 Speaker 2: to week in the regular season, let alone the preseason. 404 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 2: I mean, like, you know, Sam Darnold got fifty five 405 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 2: million guaranteed, are we sure we know exactly what he 406 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 2: is now? You know what I mean? Like Daniel Jones 407 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 2: goes from getting big money from the Giants to we'll 408 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 2: see how long he last running the Colts. Like it? 409 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 2: I just think it's it's tough man. Like I said, 410 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 2: I think all three quarterbacks are going to play there, 411 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 2: and maybe some quarterback who's not on their roster right now, 412 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 2: or they cut Snoop but then Snoop has to come 413 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 2: back or whatever. But it's preseason football. It's two you know, 414 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 2: it's a late basically late round quarterbacks who were low risk, 415 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 2: high ish upside developmental place and so they're they're you know, 416 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 2: they're going to look like that. And when they look 417 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 2: better than that, some people will go overboard. And when 418 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 2: they look bad, I guess people will go overboard. But 419 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 2: it's going to be flat though, I think at least 420 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 2: for four, six, eight weeks whatever. So maybe this will 421 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 2: now sort of die down. I hope so because I'm 422 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 2: sick of talking about it. 423 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: Jason Locking for our guest here The Jason Smith Show 424 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: with Mike Carbon. Okay, so we saw two big contract 425 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: sit ins Holden's come to come to an end today. 426 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin gets a big bag from the Commanders and 427 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson gets fourteen million dollars more for this year. 428 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: Now I look at this, Jay and I go, wow, 429 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: this is one of those days you got to stop 430 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: and say, Okay, the Bengals did it right because they 431 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: gave a thirty year old player money for this year, 432 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: whereas the commander said, yeah, we're going to give you 433 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: an extension that kicks in on your thirty one. I'm like, wow. 434 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: Not many days I say, boy, the Bengals really got 435 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: it right. But I feel like they really got it 436 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: more right than the Commanders did. 437 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 2: Well. I guess what I don't understand is, well, why 438 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 2: did it have to come to this for either of 439 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 2: these Sure like, if these teams were willing to do, 440 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 2: if you were willing to basically make Hendrickson hole for 441 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 2: one year, I think you might have been able to 442 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 2: avoid a lot of headaches in the Airum, because I 443 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 2: don't think he could have thought he was going to 444 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 2: do much better than this. And then if this is 445 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: the end game for Kerry, why do you go you know, 446 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 2: we're bringing in debo and like, like what did they gain? 447 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 2: I don't understand, Like, if you were scared of the age, 448 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 2: but you're adding it on, you know, adding Garan Keets 449 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 2: stuff into the thirties, then why wasn't he just a 450 00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 2: priority at the combine? I guess I'm a little baffle 451 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 2: from a team perspective, why they made both of these 452 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:11,199 Speaker 2: players who are clearly super important, Like why they made 453 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: them sort of jump through hoops and you know, oh yeah, 454 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 2: I'm over here. I'm over here, and like really get 455 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 2: their attention and really try to take it to the 456 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: nth degree to essentially give them what they want. 457 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess we get the the Hendrick Sik side though, 458 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: as we get to free agency that much quicker and 459 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: we agree to part ways. So now it's it's all 460 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: hands on deck for Joe Burr to make it work 461 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: for this year. 462 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I don't think they were ever going to 463 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 2: put future money out there, and I think he probably 464 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 2: knew that. But if they had sweetened the pot like this, 465 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 2: six weeks ago, you know what I mean, he's in campus, 466 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 2: he's teaching, you know, he's actually on the field, and 467 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 2: he's showing the guy they drafted to replace him, Tamar Stewart, 468 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 2: how to do it. I just I'm a little confused. 469 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 2: If they were willing to go to these lengths, why 470 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 2: they didn't figure that out sooner? 471 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 1: Just bangles. I mean, yeah, does this mean that we're 472 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 1: going to get an end to the Micah Parson situation 473 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: at some point soon? Because he's the third one, right, 474 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: of the three stars that we're doing one all new deals. 475 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 2: That's what I've been saying. Now, this one's always different 476 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,479 Speaker 2: because he's never been paid before, and he's absolutely in 477 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 2: his prime, and no one can quibble about age, and 478 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 2: no one can quibble about market size or you know whatever. 479 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 2: The team's culture, and like he is the culture, he 480 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 2: fits the star. He is a star. He fells jersey, 481 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 2: he moves the needle, all that stuff. And I think 482 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:58,479 Speaker 2: this one is we're talking about new money guarantees that 483 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 2: are going to destroy these other two deals, you know, 484 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 2: by multiples multitudes. This is like basically starting from scratch. 485 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 2: I mean, this is Michael Parson's first real contract. Ever. 486 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: You know, that was clearly the last Hendrickson deal with Cincinnati, 487 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 2: and that's going to end up being Terry's last deal 488 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 2: with Washington. So I don't think it really does anything, 489 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: to be honest with you, I think Michael Parsons wants 490 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 2: to be the highest paid defensive player by certain multiples, 491 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 2: and at some point I think Jerry will get there. 492 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 2: Maybe it's some time for him to play, you know, 493 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 2: two thursdays from now, and maybe it's not. But I 494 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 2: don't think it bleeds too much into the regular season 495 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 2: one where they are he's going to get his bag. 496 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 2: I have no concerns about. 497 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: That anything from our three weeks of preseason fun and 498 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 1: the reports emanating there out that has gotten you to 499 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: change your opinion on an individual team. 500 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: No, not really, No, I mean Baltimore is pretty emphatic 501 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,719 Speaker 2: what they did. Like they had that streak where they 502 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: won twenty three straight preseason games, and it struck me 503 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 2: as a little bit bizarre and quirky and stupid, and 504 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 2: they were clearly at times pushing the pace and doing 505 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 2: things in the fourth quarter to try to win games 506 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 2: like this three and zero preseason and I don't again 507 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 2: like I'm not sitting here as spousing point differential in 508 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 2: the preseason or whatever, but like they pretty much did 509 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 2: whatever they wanted to do physically running the ball on 510 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 2: the teams they played, and they basically suffocated the opposition. 511 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 2: Like their second stringers and third stringers beat the hell 512 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 2: out of whatever version of the Colts, Cowboys and Commanders 513 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 2: offense that they saw. And the rookie chicker hit one 514 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,479 Speaker 2: from sixty one the other day in Washington. Well, so 515 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,239 Speaker 2: I think they were bad on special teams. They were 516 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 2: all full on defense the first ten weeks of the season, 517 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 2: and the offense was historically significant. Isaiah like, we's banged up, 518 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 2: but I think he'll be back by two week three 519 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: something like that, and otherwise they're they're they're rocking and 520 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 2: rolling on offense. Defensively, I think this Mike Green Jada 521 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 2: is going to hit the ground running and solo Malachi 522 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 2: starts and that defense did get better in the second half, 523 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 2: and dak Or's second year is a defensive coordinator. And 524 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 2: again it's just the preseason, but their backups looked pretty 525 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,479 Speaker 2: menacing and physical, so a lot of people think it's 526 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 2: the best roster. 527 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 3: In the league. 528 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 2: It might be. I'll just say, from from an injury 529 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 2: standpoint and from a productive production standpoint, I don't think 530 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,199 Speaker 2: you could have much better of a summer than the 531 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 2: Ravens had. 532 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: He's on Twitter at Jason locking for that, that Jason 533 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: locking for there. He is already set for the Jets 534 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: Ravens AFC Championship game. 535 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 2: Ready to go. 536 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: Take it easy, buddy, we'll talk to you next week. 537 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: We get ready for the footballs to fly for real. 538 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 2: Have a great week, brother. 539 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: Your next success can begin sooner than you think.

He likes the Jets like me. 545 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: He likes the Jets to be like a five hundred 546 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: is team. So I said, yeah, I ready for Jets Ravens. 547 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: I'm just manifesting and I put it on put. Anything's changed, 548 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: so why would he say no? He still thinks the 549 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: Jets suck. No, he like, look, the Jets with no 550 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 1: expectations are always better than the Jets with expectations. Either 551 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: way it sucks. You have five hundred team. I'm telling 552 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,199 Speaker 1: you be absolutely fine. The absolutely fine. This year be 553 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: more fun than the last few years. I'll be that's 554 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: for sure, at least on the field. Off the seal 555 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: off field wasn't as great because we didn't really dominate 556 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: the off season this year. But I think the field 557 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: we might be better because we've got a better head coach. 558 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: You finally have something in with a system and a 559 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: plan and a culture and all kinds of stuff. So 560 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,679 Speaker 1: I'm excited. Yeah, I think the biggest thing is that 561 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: you didn't win the off season, so something's got it different. Yeah, 562 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: and they won't win the regulars. That's most likely true. 563 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 1: Time now to find out what's trending in the wide 564 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: world of sports. And a guy who's been called the 565 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: Taoscar Hernandez of Fox Sports Radio. Once in a while, 566 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 1: he runs a ball down and you go, wow, that's 567 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: some play, And he also then throws sunflower seeds on 568 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: everybody in the office. It's Steve Disager. 569 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 6: By all means, take away a six time Gold Glove 570 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:38,719 Speaker 6: right field or just put him in the infield and 571 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 6: say anybody could just play the outfield intensively right right, No, okay, 572 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 6: transit in property. 573 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: Steve just proved that today. 574 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 6: Right, he did make a nice leaping catch at the 575 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 6: left field wall, so I guess the outfield defense it's 576 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 6: all settled. Actually, Harmon referenced this last week, and this 577 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 6: needs to be said over and over everything the dog 578 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 6: made fun of the Yankees about during the World Series 579 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 6: last year. We can always count on them to make 580 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 6: a mistake. Yeah, sure, throw a wrong bass or bobbla bolt. 581 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 6: That's what the Dodgers are this year. Yeah, literally, less 582 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 6: than twelve months away from last year's World Series. Now, granted, 583 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 6: the Dodgers are tied for first in the NL West 584 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 6: with the padres La is scoreless against the Reds bottom 585 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 6: of the second. 586 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: Right, now, can you do me a favorite? Win tonight 587 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: when the next couple, and can you sweep the Reds 588 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: for me? Can you do me that favor? I'll see 589 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: what I can do for sure. YEA all from his 590 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: desk right there, Steve Sager, he's gonna be helping you 591 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: and Frostburg. Can you get him a sweep in the 592 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: Reds positivity? You are we pinch hitting today? 593 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 6: The red started today only a game and a half 594 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 6: out of the last NL wild card behind the New 595 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 6: York Mets, who, by the way, had Francisco lindorgo Ozero 596 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 6: for six with three strikeouts, but the Mets did eke 597 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 6: out a thirteen three victory against the Phillies. The Padres 598 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 6: are up four to three at the Mariners. In the 599 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 6: bottom of the third. Milwaukee beat Arizona seven to five. 600 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 6: Wins in the alas for Toronto, the Yankees and Austin 601 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 6: Tampa Bay a nine to nothing winner at Cleveland, which 602 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 6: has lost six in a row. Junior Camonaro two home runs. 603 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 6: He has thirty nine. In fact, he had four hits, 604 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 6: four runs scored in this game. And very small crowds 605 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 6: for the White Sox in Miami, but home wins for them. 606 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 6: By the way, the Rockies are off tonight record of 607 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 6: thirty seven and ninety four. They've lost four straight and 608 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 6: are mathematically eliminated from the playoff chase. 609 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: A good run. He stop, not them, just stop. 610 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 6: You're still in August people the Wash base that you know, 611 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 6: it's like the expansion Mets. They're not going to finish 612 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 6: sixty games back I think in the division, but it 613 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 6: is like the expansion Mets. The Washington Commanders gave wide 614 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 6: receiver Terry McClure in a three year extension. It includes 615 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 6: a thirty million dollars signing bonus. The Bengals gave defensive 616 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 6: end Trey Hendrickson a pay raise for this year. He'll 617 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 6: still be an unrestricted free agent after this season. He 618 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 6: missed all of Cincinnati's offseason workouts, including camp. Hendrickson led 619 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 6: the league in sacks last year. The Raiders Tonight acquired 620 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 6: quarterback Kenny Pickett from Cleveland for a fifth rounder. Backup 621 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 6: quarterback Aidan O'Connell has a broken wrist. The Raiders signed 622 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 6: veteran wide receiver Amari Cooper. Las Vegas white out Jacoby 623 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 6: Myers requested a trade. He wants a contract extension. Texans 624 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 6: running back Joe Mixon. 625 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: You know the things to you've decided, because Jacoby and 626 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: Myers is a big law firm. Yeah, And the slogan 627 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: for Jacoby and Myers was, and still probably is, it's 628 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: about time. So now you can probably just take this 629 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 1: and say, Jacoby and Myers, you want a contract extension. 630 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: It's about time. 631 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 6: I thought you were gonna say eighty receptions and nobody 632 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 6: saw them. Texans running back Joe Mixon will miss at 633 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 6: least the first four games with an ankle injury. He 634 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 6: missed all of last's last offseason's workouts. Houston does have 635 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 6: running back Nick Chubb now the kicker for the Dolphins. 636 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 6: Jason Sanders will miss a few games, according to the team. Reportedly, 637 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 6: he could miss about a month or more with a 638 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 6: hip injury, and Miami running back Jalen Wright will likely 639 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 6: miss the opener with a leg injury. The NFL's cut 640 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 6: down deadline is Tuesday afternoon to get the rosters down 641 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 6: to fifty three. Venus Williams lost her first rounder at 642 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 6: the US Open tonight in three sets. Madison Keys of 643 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 6: the US lost her first round match in three close sets, 644 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 6: and there were two WNBA games tonight. Las Vegas won 645 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 6: it's eleventh game in a row seventy nine seventy four 646 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 6: at Chicago the Chicago Sky nine and twenty eight. This season, 647 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 6: Angel Reason defeat ten points seventeen rebounds Connecticut nine and 648 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 6: twenty eight.

Scott Barry is pointing at something. 682 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's something on the field. 683 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 6: Oh, is there something hanging over the the Yeah, above 684 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 6: the city sign and centerfield, just sort. 685 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: Of left of the four oh eight. That's a light 686 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 1: the speaker. 687 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 5: H oh, it's a uh and they're it's one of 688 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 5: those parabolic mics. 689 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: It's not out. That's on the other side too, I 690 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: think I think it was John. It was in the 691 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: sight line for Marsh with the right hand pitcher. Yeah, 692 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: the left hand pitcher. It shouldn't matter, should it. And 693 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: there's one on the other side as well. Met's TV 694 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: on the calls. This is how petty the Phillies are. Oh, 695 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: there's a camera and there's a bit of a reflection 696 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: on it because Alec Baum hdn't do a double play 697 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: and he comes out of the game saying, oh, that 698 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: it's reflecting over the field. Yeah, the Phillies are up 699 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: by seven games in the East. They're so petty. The 700 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: game gets delayed for six minutes because they have to 701 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 1: move the microphoone that was a little bit too far, 702 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 1: and as a result, the game we have to wait 703 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: around seven eight minutes for them to continue on. Clearly 704 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 1: it didn't matter because the Mets won seventy five to 705 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: three tonight, So it's okay. Oh, like I dismissed if 706 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: you are the guy that tried to trade on the 707 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: inflation of a football for months like they But you 708 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 1: know you couldn't you see something you say, So it 709 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: couldn't have been that big a deal because the Phillies 710 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: would have said something early, or the Mets would it 711 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: said if it was in the wrong spot. I don't 712 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,799 Speaker 1: think it was getting lowered and moved. And because the 713 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: Phillies would have said something, the Phillies would have said, sure, 714 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 1: they weren't moving it around like it was drone operating 715 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 1: and you can't electronically. It was just kind of moving 716 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: up and down the railing and then using the Jedi 717 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,240 Speaker 1: mind trick to erase it from you after you're actually, 718 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,280 Speaker 1: what was I mad about it? It was going to complain 719 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: to the empire about something. Nah, I don't know. I 720 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: ground it out to second. But it's a bit of gamesmanship, right, 721 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 1: that's just the idea of, hey, you know what, We're 722 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: gonna make them move this. I'm upset, Yeah, you gotta move. Yeah. Okay. 723 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: But today, with all this chicanery that we've seen across 724 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: all sports, go back into everything that just went down 725 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 1: with Connor Stallions, a multi year investigation that was wiped 726 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: away with the stroke of a pen. Aron, just write 727 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: a big check. Okay, let's not. Let's not compare this 728 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,360 Speaker 1: to Connor Stallions going to games and getting and getting 729 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,439 Speaker 1: video and getting and getting signals and giving it back 730 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: to the team. Let's not. What I'm making. The point 731 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,879 Speaker 1: I'm making is the sensitivity around any of these kind 732 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: of things and trash cans everything else. And it really 733 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: was to just say, okay, let's just be done with it. 734 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: And it really was only a big deal because the 735 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,879 Speaker 1: Mets made a pitching change. And so when you change 736 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: righty to left. He was like, oh, now I can 737 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: see the mic. So it wasn't a big deal before. 738 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 1: But when you change picture, you see it from a 739 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: different angle. Obviously I see them out. That's up. That's 740 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 1: why into a double play skip. Okay, we'll get that 741 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: taken care of. Everybody's looking for an excuse. Nobody just says, hey, 742 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: you know what, I had a bad at bad Yeah. 743 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: Oh he's that damn microphone parabolic mike. It screwed everything up. Meanwhile, 744 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 1: the biggest viral story of this weekend is a crazy 745 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 1: one that we're hoping everything is okay for Stuart Smith. 746 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,240 Speaker 1: He is the wrestler known as Psycho stew You've probably 747 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 1: seen this where over the weekend, a live stream wrestling 748 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: event sparked a big police investigation after Roja Jackson, who 749 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: was the son of Rampage Jackson, was unleashed a series 750 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: of punches to him during what was supposed to be 751 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: this big staged event right now. Apparently the story was 752 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 1: they got into an altercation backstage and it bled its 753 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: way into the ring where here comes Rajah Jackson, who's 754 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: not a wrestler, he's a UFC fighter, he's MMA fighter, 755 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: and he knocks Stuart Smith that after gives a pile 756 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: driver and then starts punching in the face when clearly 757 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 1: he is unconscious and he lands like twenty punches and 758 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,760 Speaker 1: now at some point you gotta go, guys, not scripted, 759 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 1: not scripted, help him out. Not scripted, not scripted. Yeah, 760 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: we've gone off the mark, Like this is crazy, and 761 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,280 Speaker 1: he's in the hospital and and hopefully you know, continues 762 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: to do better, but he gets hit. This is not 763 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: a movie where guys get punching the face like twenty 764 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: five times. They'll find a way to not only you know, 765 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,479 Speaker 1: defeat the guy, but then defeat like seven other guys after. 766 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 1: Like this is where I mean, really, I'm not saying 767 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 1: he could have killed him. You punch a guy that 768 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,439 Speaker 1: many times in the face, you're that strong standing over 769 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,759 Speaker 1: or or you know, on your knees over him while 770 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: his face is on the ground. Yeah, there's one thing 771 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: to say. All right, let's set this up. You can 772 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: get a little bit back in the ring and give 773 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 1: your receipt, right, so you get to give the blow 774 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 1: to say, hey, you did something wrong. So here's the 775 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: response to it. No, guy's clearly out and now we're 776 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,840 Speaker 1: talking about I think it was what twenty two was 777 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 1: the count of the number of hits and rampage is 778 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,720 Speaker 1: going on saying hey, we're MMA guys. Like at first 779 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: it was kind of the all right, this was worked out, 780 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 1: and then it got you know, a little too serious, 781 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: and then it became a hey, we're an MMA and 782 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: we don't screw around kind of thing, like hard guy 783 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: kind of thing. So like trying to figure out where 784 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: the middle round is and all of this sounds like 785 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 1: the guy is gonna make a recovery in the hospital whatever. 786 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 1: But pretty scary moment when this video started making the rounds. Yeah, 787 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: as he's clearly not moving right at all, and I 788 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,919 Speaker 1: think to see why it's at right now, Like why 789 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: hasn't he been fully arrested. Wasn't I think what they honestly, 790 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 1: they need to get through the Okay, what was supposed 791 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: to be staged? Did this get out of control? Because 792 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 1: it's all getting about like premeditation is what you're talking about, 793 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: because this is he just jumps in and starts wailing 794 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: on the guy right, Like was this initially part of 795 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 1: it was a premeditator? Like you need to go through 796 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 1: this because because it's it's wrestling. What was what was scripted? 797 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: What got out of control? So before they say okay, 798 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: you're arrested, your charge with X, Y and Z, like 799 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: you got to go through and okay, what was going on? 800 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: What was going on backstage? Was at a real beef? 801 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: Was it something that was not supposed to be? But 802 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: you got to talk to a lot of people, like 803 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: there's a lot that has to go on because you 804 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: still had a referee count the guy down. Yeah, like 805 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,040 Speaker 1: he didn't. He's like, okay, yeah, this is part of it. 806 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: The pin Yeah. Like so like everybody just seems to 807 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:08,320 Speaker 1: be let's get our stories right and talk to everybody 808 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: that was involved to figure out what was real, what 809 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: was k fabe gone berserk and what the truth really is. 810 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: So you need a little bit more. But that if 811 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: the why is there no been arrest that that's got 812 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 1: to be why because it's so much you don't know 813 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 1: what's real? What was it? Just because of what the 814 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 1: degree of the charges are going down on the final 815 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: what's they extended the damage exit about a Fresca exit 816 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 1: swollen dome. Coming up next, we get back into the 817 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:38,240 Speaker 1: biggest NFL quarterback story of the day, Jason and Mike Fox. 818 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: I'm not sure it's clarity over to. But with cutdown 819 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 1: Day coming in the NFL tomorrow, we had some big 820 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: news that which we're gonna get to a lot over 821 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 1: the next half hour. Right we had trades, we have 822 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 1: extensions agreed to, and a deal that just happened basically 823 00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: right before we went on the air tonight. Scratch another 824 00:40:56,280 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: quarterback off of the Cleveland Browns list of five guys 825 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: are gonna start this year. Can't believe that? Kill you. 826 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett is no longer a Cleveland brown a guy 827 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: they identified in the offseason saying he's gonna be our 828 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 1: bridge quarterback. We love Kenny Pickett. Nope, Kenny Pickett is 829 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 1: now a member of the Las Vegas Raider. Yeah, thank god. 830 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 1: The Browns get a fifth round pick in twenty twenty 831 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: six for Kenny Pickett back. Pickett's gonna back up Gino Smith, obviously, 832 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: the Raiders having that need after Aidan O'Connell fracture's right 833 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,879 Speaker 1: wrist in the finale against the Cardinals. And so now 834 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett, who we thought was gonna get in there. 835 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna be in there. Second on 836 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: the list of five guy quarterbacks. It would go Flaco Picket, Sanders, Gabriel, 837 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: and then Tyler Huntley for the final game of the season. 838 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: Now Kenny Pickett is out, he's now a Raider, they'll 839 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: still start five quarterbacks. I just need to figure out 840 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: who that fifth guy is gonna be. Yeah, now we 841 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: just need to because now it's gonna go Flaco, Gabriel, Sanders. 842 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: They'll bring Tyler Huntley back at some point, I'm sure, 843 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: so he'll be back, he'll play, and then it'll be 844 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 1: a fifth guy at some point. Yeah, it could be 845 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:05,759 Speaker 1: Brady Quinn you right, be right, Frost, But could be 846 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: Brady Quinn once with the Browns back in what two 847 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 1: thousand and seven draft class, could be Derek Anderson, could 848 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: be Spurgeon Win. You never know. Wow, you got this, 849 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 1: n How far away can we? How far away can 850 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 1: we really be? From Johnny manziel No, I was excited 851 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: because I thought Pickett in this show I did yesterday 852 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: with Jared Smith Fox Sports Sunday, thought with the O'Connell 853 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: move that Pickett would get traded there. Now, he was 854 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: always the trade candidate so long as Joe Flacco was 855 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: kept in bubble wrap and upright for week one. But yeah, 856 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 1: it does kill your parlay. Yeah yeah, I mean hunt 857 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: thing can go back and drove that two minute drive 858 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: that everybody got mad about over the weekend. So some 859 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: good will, but behind obviously Dylan Gabriel and should Or Sanders. Well, 860 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: I mean really I'm bummed because I had that. It 861 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 1: was such a great five quarterback with the with the 862 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: guy in order, and now Kenny Pickett's gonna be in 863 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: Las Vegas now in a half hour. We could talk 864 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: about that baseball part because I did get the answer 865 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,440 Speaker 1: to that one. We'll get back to that later on. 866 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:13,919 Speaker 1: But yeah, just a very curious sort as is cut 867 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 1: down days. So all those quarterbacks of yesteryear that you 868 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: thought we're gonna hang on with, No, no, not so fast, 869 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 1: your guy Mike White, Yeah out, yeah, quarterbacks are gone. 870 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, so we get a little bit of a 871 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,359 Speaker 1: shuffle over these last twenty four hours and look cut 872 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: downs tomorrow. So we still have more to come now 873 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: with Shador Sanders. Something a little different from what you've 874 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,840 Speaker 1: heard the past few days about crazy stuff like to 875 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 1: be Madhaanor Sanders was told not to be draft. NFL 876 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: told teams not to draft Shador Sanders. Kevin Stefanski is 877 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 1: ruining Shador Sanders on purpose. All right, let's understand a 878 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 1: couple of things here before you get too crazy with stuff. Right. 879 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 1: I understand the Browns are tanking and they're looking for 880 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: arch Man. I understand that. I get all of that, right, 881 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,080 Speaker 1: I get all of that. But it they didn't have 882 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,399 Speaker 1: to take him, Okay, so they didn't have to take them. 883 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 1: They could have done very well this year with Joe 884 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: Flago and Kenny Pickett and Dylan Gabriel. They could have 885 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 1: done very well with them, but they went out to 886 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 1: get Shador Sanders. All right, this is not something where 887 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: the Browns are out to absolutely ruin a guy. Now, 888 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: why is Sanders where he is now? He had a 889 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 1: really poor game this weekend, right to show that. Okay, 890 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 1: really not ready yet, and I understand that, But why 891 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: has this been gone so slow for Shador Sanders? And 892 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 1: one reason I'm gonna give you is something we've talked 893 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 1: about a little bit before, and one is something new 894 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 1: that I want to open open everybody's eyes to that. Okay, 895 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 1: now you're gonna say, okay, this is why things have 896 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 1: been going so slow? Right, Number one thing with Shador 897 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 1: Sanders I said, is what the talent is there? Right? Obviously, 898 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:49,359 Speaker 1: everybody comes along at their own pace, and clearly he's 899 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit ahead. With a great first preseason game. 900 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 1: He had bad second game he had I understand that, 901 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 1: you know, and got hurt and missed that and miss 902 00:44:56,080 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 1: miss miss middlegame. But clearly the Browns it's it's much 903 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: different to be a starting quarterback at a big time 904 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 1: D one school and to be the face of a 905 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:10,840 Speaker 1: franchise that is worth a billion dollars, and the Browns 906 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:14,439 Speaker 1: want to make sure that when schaudor Sanders starts that 907 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: he is responsible enough and he is mature enough to 908 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 1: not go through knucklehead headlines like we've seen since he 909 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: got drafted. We had the speeding situations, two of them. 910 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: We had him yelling at a player in the middle 911 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,320 Speaker 1: of his first debut right because he had to scramble 912 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 1: and got sacked. We had him get into it with 913 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 1: a reporter right after the game is over because he 914 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: didn't say anything nice about him. Now, clearly that was 915 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: a little overblown, but still, why are you doing this? Right? 916 00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 1: So I have to understand, you have to understand that 917 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:47,920 Speaker 1: the Browns have to see this more as just the 918 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 1: guy is good, put him in and let him play. Right. 919 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 1: You've had instances now since he's become a Brown where 920 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: you have to worry. Okay, if we make him the 921 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 1: starting quarterback, is he ready for this? Is he is 922 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 1: he responsible enough to people handle being the face for 923 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 1: Francis or he's still gonna be I'm great and whatever 924 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: I do is fine. And if you hate me, it's 925 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: your fault. Okay, you can do that at some positions 926 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 1: in the NFL, you can't really do it at quarterback. 927 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: So it's got to It's not just can you handle 928 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 1: it physically? It's physically, it's emotionally. It's responsibly. Can you 929 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 1: be the face of a franchise because that's who you 930 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 1: are if you're a quarterback. And clearly this is something 931 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,839 Speaker 1: that I understand that Shador Sanders is still struggling with 932 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 1: and has to and and has to improve upon. If 933 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: the Browns are gonna make him the quarterback because they 934 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 1: don't want to make him the quarterback and say, well, 935 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 1: we're putting out pr fires every couple of days. And 936 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 1: I don't even stuff with dian I don't even I 937 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:37,920 Speaker 1: mean all the look, look at the stuff that's going 938 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 1: on that chadur is kind of brought on himself a 939 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: little bit. They don't want to go through that. They've 940 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: been embarrassed enough the last few years, so that part 941 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: of it I kind of understand. Or Hey, that Chador, 942 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 1: you need to show that we can trust you, because this, again, 943 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: being the face of a billion dollar corporation is more 944 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 1: than just Hey, he can sling it and he's tough 945 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 1: and he's a talented quarterback. You're not protected by your dad, 946 00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 1: You're not protected by a You can do that in 947 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: college football. Some stuff you could do there you can't 948 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 1: do in the NFL. Yeah, I mean, look, we just 949 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,400 Speaker 1: get down to brass tacks. I mean, Kevin Stefanski's the 950 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,799 Speaker 1: guy with the track record. He's got a history. As 951 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 1: much as we can mock the Browns and a lot 952 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 1: of their decision making throughout the years. You know, Stefanski, 953 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: I think to a degree, has earned the He knows 954 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:24,319 Speaker 1: what he's doing, so you trust the process as it were. 955 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 1: To your point, A lot of the off field and 956 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 1: even on field stuff, getting after teammates, getting after opponents. Right, 957 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 1: we go back to his college days of stalking guys 958 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 1: like setting up to the big showdowns, and anytime someone 959 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 1: might have said something that could be seen as untoward 960 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: towards Dion, towards Shador, towards his teammates, that he's certainly 961 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: taken umbrage with it throughout the process, and we have 962 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,319 Speaker 1: will never know one hundred percent what's going on in 963 00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: meeting rooms going back to the draft of what caused 964 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 1: him to fall fully to the fifth round. You know, 965 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 1: Eric Dickerson and so many others trying to talk about 966 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 1: the position he's been put in, and yes, when you're 967 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:14,320 Speaker 1: a backup, you play with backup players, right. Jeff Schwartz, 968 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 1: our teammate here, does count down on Sunday mornings here 969 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio, talking about it through his own experience, 970 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 1: Like nobody's going and ordering the code red for a 971 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 1: backup lineman who's fighting to earn a roster spot to 972 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:34,240 Speaker 1: play poorly. If anything, what we saw in that sack 973 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 1: that has been shown a million times and played a 974 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 1: million times here on Fox Sports Radio that he took 975 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 1: for the twenty two yard loss, like that guy did 976 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 1: everything but shoulder tackle him like he was a member 977 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: of the WWE to keep that guy from getting torched 978 00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 1: or Sanders. He could have been called for holding four 979 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 1: different times on that play ahead of the sack, if 980 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,640 Speaker 1: you really wanted to go down that path. So it's 981 00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:00,760 Speaker 1: not that there aren't guys fighting for jobs all alongside 982 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 1: him and they're going out of their way to make 983 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 1: him look bad. Right, so we can just cancel that noise, 984 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 1: all this stuff from Eric Dickerson, our other teammate, TJ. 985 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 1: Houschman's on and everybody else about holding him back and 986 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: making him look bad whenever, I don't buy it. Right 987 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 1: the order of not drafting him, there might have been 988 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 1: a couple of rooms where there was a decision to say, hey, 989 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 1: that's not a guy we're bringing in, potentially because of 990 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 1: all the off field and outside noise, but to say 991 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 1: that it was a vast conspiracy to do that. You're 992 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 1: never gonna get me on board that. Now. The other 993 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 1: thing is this right for a different perspective, and this 994 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 1: would this explains just why the Shador Sanders timeline has 995 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:48,799 Speaker 1: gone the way it was now. I didn't and I 996 00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: didn't see this going into the draft. How big a 997 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:56,760 Speaker 1: story Shador Sanders was going to be, especially after going 998 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 1: in the fifth round. Right, you knew the beginning of 999 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,600 Speaker 1: the draft when melk Hyper opens up with five minutes 1000 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 1: on Shador Sanders, we're not talking about Camra world at all. 1001 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,120 Speaker 1: That suddenly Chad Door Sanders was gonna be a big story, 1002 00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 1: Dion's kid coming out, big deal. But don't I don't 1003 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 1: think we were ready for just how big a deal 1004 00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 1: this was. This was a daily story that overwhelmed so 1005 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:19,360 Speaker 1: many other football stories. The Browns became national news because 1006 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 1: they drafted Chador Sanders, and obviously they're big news because 1007 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: it's the Browns, and oh, you need five quarterbacks, but again, Browns. 1008 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,399 Speaker 1: But I don't think the Browns were ready for how 1009 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,320 Speaker 1: big a deal this was going to be. Hey, we 1010 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 1: got your Door Sanders, it'll be it'll be a deal now, 1011 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 1: and they'll talk. But eventually it's gonna calm down and 1012 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: he's a backup. He's coming in as a fifth round quarterback, 1013 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 1: and and it's you know, there'll be a little bit 1014 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 1: of excitement early, but eventually we get into the preseason 1015 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,279 Speaker 1: and go on and he's got to prove himself. Which 1016 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,439 Speaker 1: is ridiculous because what once you saw it was going 1017 00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 1: on with the draft, you knew whoever got your door, Sanders, 1018 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:52,399 Speaker 1: he was gonna suck all the oxygen out of the room. 1019 00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 1: So my thing is, I wonder if the Browns just 1020 00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:00,400 Speaker 1: really don't know how to play this story right. They 1021 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 1: don't want Shador Sanders. They hate the fact this is 1022 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: an everyday story with Shador, everything going on at Shador, 1023 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 1: Shador Shador, So they're playing it close to the vest. 1024 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,839 Speaker 1: You're not getting a lot of explanation from Stefanski, your burrier, 1025 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 1: anybody about where as it is, where his position is. 1026 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: We don't want to give too much oxygen to this, 1027 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:18,319 Speaker 1: and whatever we do, we don't want to make a 1028 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 1: decision or a choice that could backfire on us. So 1029 00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: we got to slow play this. We got to slow 1030 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 1: play Shador Sanders until we're absolutely sure he's ready for 1031 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 1: a bigger role, whether it's a backup, whether it's a 1032 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,560 Speaker 1: starting job, whether he starts for a few weeks, whatever 1033 00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,920 Speaker 1: it is. And now understanding that they're overwhelmed by this 1034 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,319 Speaker 1: and don't know how to deal with it, and that 1035 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 1: explains why Shador Sanders has come along. Yep, you're on 1036 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 1: the team, you're getting your reps, you're starting because everybody 1037 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 1: else's is hurt. Hey, you had a great date. But 1038 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,040 Speaker 1: then you're hurt. You're not starting, you're coming off the bench, 1039 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 1: you're playing in the third and fourth quarter of this game. 1040 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,239 Speaker 1: We don't know what we have and if we mishandle 1041 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,840 Speaker 1: the situation, it's gonna be terrible for us. Right, and 1042 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 1: then if we mishandle the situation, we're gonna say, ready, hey, 1043 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,880 Speaker 1: we take arch man And then Archie Manning calls and says, Hey, Browns, 1044 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 1: this is Archie. Hey, I made this phone call twenty 1045 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 1: five years ago. I'm doing it now. Yeah, look I 1046 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,800 Speaker 1: remember what I call. The Chargers said, don't take Eli. Yeah, 1047 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,520 Speaker 1: don't take arch We're not signing, We're not going there. 1048 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,040 Speaker 1: You guys are an absolute mess. So they know that 1049 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 1: they don't want to be seen as we really can't 1050 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 1: handle things like this because of what could be coming 1051 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,840 Speaker 1: in the future, whether it's Arch Manning or whether they 1052 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: got to handle your door as a star. So they're 1053 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 1: out of their depth. They still don't know how to 1054 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 1: deal with this. So that's why everything with him has 1055 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 1: been slow played, and they're kind of learning as the 1056 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 1: days go on, and I'm sure they're thinking, now, hey, 1057 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 1: when the games start we're gonna stop talking about your 1058 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 1: door Sanders. Right, Yeah, no, not so much. But I'm 1059 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,319 Speaker 1: sure they're hoping that's going to happen, but I don't 1060 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 1: know that there. They've been equipped and they are equipped 1061 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,239 Speaker 1: right now to deal with this story on this level, 1062 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,239 Speaker 1: which is why it's being slow played. Well, I mean 1063 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 1: some of it is also the fact that he's not 1064 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 1: clearly and number one guy. Otherwise you would have been 1065 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 1: drafted in one of the first four rounds, right if 1066 00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:01,880 Speaker 1: he was a clear can't prospect. And he did some 1067 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: good things in that first game, there's no question about it. 1068 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:08,080 Speaker 1: You can't deny that. But he looked equally bad in 1069 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:10,640 Speaker 1: this third game. Right. There were a lot of mistakes, 1070 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 1: there were a lot of problems, and you could say, yes, 1071 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,359 Speaker 1: he's playing with he was playing with third stringers. Then 1072 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,399 Speaker 1: weren't a lot of starters playing that full run, nor 1073 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,439 Speaker 1: was he playing against first stringers that entire time. Going 1074 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 1: back to week one, those guys had a cup of coffee. 1075 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 1: He struggled, and then he stayed in the game and played. Well, 1076 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,760 Speaker 1: that's fine, it's all learning as you go through. Remember 1077 00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 1: Jimmy Haslam had that presser and was asked about Shudor Sanders. 1078 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 1: To me, he was like, no, it was all Barry, 1079 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: it was all his his brain, brain trust to bring 1080 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,799 Speaker 1: this along. And again Stefanski with the track record of 1081 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:50,640 Speaker 1: playing having guys play well, and we got to the 1082 00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 1: playoffs a couple of years ago he did with Joe 1083 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 1: Flacco in company. But you had a roster that was 1084 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 1: pretty widely acknowledged as a pretty good roster. Well, it's 1085 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 1: not the same now. Right now you're talking about a 1086 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 1: mid to lower tier roster that you have to try 1087 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:09,239 Speaker 1: to navigate. There's no easy answer, and Dylan Gabriel is 1088 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,359 Speaker 1: certainly not a godsend either. No, you gotta you're you're 1089 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: talking about a battle between a third round guy and 1090 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 1: a fifth round guy. Yeah, good luck. But I'm just 1091 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 1: I don't know that they know how to handle this 1092 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 1: and that. And that's that's one big Okay, Why he 1093 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,880 Speaker 1: doesn't get a bigger chance with the ones, Why he 1094 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 1: stayed four string all the way through the year, This 1095 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,279 Speaker 1: is too much for us. Well, you did miss some 1096 00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 1: time due to injury. That doesn't help you your case. 1097 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresco exit swelling dome Jason Smith. 1098 00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 1: Makarman again just something different for Shador Sanders, which could 1099 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 1: explain a lot of the last few months in Cleveland.
