You know, 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:56.000 I would say it's it's worthwhile to try. She's pretty fun, 0:02:56.080 --> 0:03:03.000 she's dope, like one of the homies. But man, you 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:06.520 you don't come correct, then you don't get caught wrong. 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:08.400 Yeah that's the woodchip right now there. 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.960 I mean, you ever hear the Black Widow Spider. 0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:16.680 So for those that are not familiar, we had a 0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:20.680 conversation post Easter because I was mentioning how my in 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.679 laws are Mexican and so no they have yeah, oh yeah, 0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:27.799 see okay believe So they have this, Uh they have 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:33.160 this tradition the other night, like I was blown away authentic. Uh. 0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:37.440 So they have this tradition. There are confetti filled eggs 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:39.240 that they throw at each other and they crack them 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:42.000 on each other and they're they're a complete mess. But 0:03:42.160 --> 0:03:44.960 you basically take an egg, you cut the top of 0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:47.760 an egg off, you you dry it out, you clean it, 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:49.760 you do whatever you do. You fill it with confetti, 0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:52.160 and then you cover it with like a wax paper 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:55.160 and then you just light people up with it. I mean, 0:03:55.200 --> 0:03:57.840 you light them ups. Strange to me, it is. 0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.440 It just seems like too much effort for some Like 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.080 I'd rather do a water balloon. 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:06.200 Tell me about Try having that happen and they're explaining 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:07.720 it to you and you don't know what they're saying. 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.440 Try that on for size. So I've been going through 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:17.000 that for years now. No bla, no, no no. And 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:19.880 so uh there was a listener to our show, Two 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:22.000 Pros and a Cup of Joe Out to you who 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:25.039 works at a Walmart and you're sweating, Loraina, He sent 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.520 an entire box of confetti eggs here, and she's trying 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:29.720 to give him, give him out to people, like like 0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:33.480 she's doing what she's supposed to do, like like she's 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:35.760 trying to share the love, share the wealth like she 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:37.160 always does for the show. 0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:42.440 And listen. I don't think you earned any brownie points 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:46.640 with her. I don't think you've won my guy. But 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.719 thanks for putting us in a position to have to 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:51.880 tell Lorena we don't want that s. 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:53.560 You know, thank you mess. 0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:57.320 It's very very very nice thought, very nice gesture. But but 0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:01.400 you didn't do it for us, so we know why you. 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:04.600 You tried to use them little crappy ass eggs to 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:05.440 try to get in. 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:10.440 It ain't work. We hating on you on national radio. Yeah, 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:12.960 that's all right, it didn't work. And I don't want 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:14.040 your eggs now. 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:18.680 Now let me now, let me ask you, let me 0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:25.120 ask you this, all right? Do you believe that c J. 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:28.400 Stroud is a real egg or a confetti film bag? 0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:30.680 He's a real leg right now? All right? 0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:35.080 Because then they play a whole lot of confetti in 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:35.559 that egg. 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:36.320 How about that? 0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:36.600 Now? 0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.320 They did pick up the fifth year option on c J. Stroud. 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:41.920 They also did the same for Will Anderson of course. 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:46.080 Nick Cassario, their GM, spoke yesterday about the decision to 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.800 pick up the fifth year option on CJ. Stroud and 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:50.080 had this to say. 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:52.280 I don't really think it affects the future. I mean, 0:05:52.320 --> 0:05:54.680 he's our quarterback. We've said that from the beginning. To me, 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:56.359 Go and I both said it, so, I mean, I 0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:58.520 think that was really more of a procedural thing. I mean, 0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:00.000 I don't want to say it was a no brainer. 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:03.160 It's kind of a no brainer. So glad he's here again, 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:06.039 It's more part of the process. I mean, so we're 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.560 excited about his off season. I think he's had a 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:10.640 good approach, had a good attitude here. I think he's 0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:13.240 put a lot of work in, you know, from let's 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:15.760 say March and April. So excited to have him around 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:17.960 here in the spring, and I'm excited to keep moving. 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:21.640 Forward now, Nick Cassario. They also made the decision to 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:23.880 pick up the fifth year option on Will Anderson, which 0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:27.880 is a no brainer because Will Anderson has been fantastic. 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:30.359 Oh he's a beast, and he's been getting better and better. 0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:33.520 And we've talked about it on our show that that 0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:37.120 defense sick and the way they look, Oh, my god, 0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:38.560 I never see the way they look when they come 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.760 out of this. They make it a point to show 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.400 the cutaway or the bumps and all that stuff, showing 0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:45.720 the Texans defense. 0:06:45.560 --> 0:06:47.320 Front when they're coming out of the locker room and 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:50.240 ising defense to deal with. I tell my son every 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:53.000 time I see them play, I always screen capture, I 0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:56.279 record it and send it to my son and I say, 0:06:56.320 --> 0:07:00.279 this is what you're supposed to get look for. Look 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:02.280 like when you come walking out of the locker. 0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:06.360 Room and you watch the way that the playoffs went down, 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:08.000 and you go, all right, So Will Anderson's going to 0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:09.920 be here long term, and it makes sense. He's gotten 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.600 better and better and better every single year, and it's 0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:15.400 the complete opposite for CJ. 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:15.880 Stroud. 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.680 It feels like he had that rookie year to where 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:22.080 everyone looked at that and it was all of a sudden, Man, 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:25.119 the Texans landed on one, getting the number two pick 0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:31.160 Bryce Young, look what's happening there? And since then it's 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:36.160 just been I would argue he's regressed from his rookie 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:38.760 season to the point to where now following the playoffs, 0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:42.160 people are looking around going I don't know, man. He 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:43.840 seemed like he was the next guy that was going 0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:46.679 to get the monster contract at quarterback in the NFL, 0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:49.400 And now I think there's a lot of people with 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:52.920 serious doubts about whether or not he's the guy based 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:54.720 on what we saw in the biggest games last year. 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:57.760 Well, it's hard to not come to that conclusion when 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:00.920 the last game you've seen him plays the biggest game 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:04.560 of the year and he threw four picks in a loss. 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:09.120 The interesting thing about it is twenty five point nine 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:16.280 guarantee to him the endorsement of your GM in Caserio. 0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:23.800 All the stars aligned for CJ. Stroud to come into 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:30.120 this season and play himself into a bigger contract. I 0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:32.960 think that that's the setup for it. There's nothing like 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:38.000 having the amount of confidence in you invested in you 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:43.599 by a team, by the coach, by the GM, and 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:47.080 those who matter most, the guys in the locker room. 0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:52.080 I've never heard anybody give any type of criticisms or 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:56.680 any type of things that would give cause for pause 0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:59.520 in terms of drama. He's not a good team guy, 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:03.120 not a good locker room guy. He's toxic. None of 0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:06.560 those things have ever surfaced about CJ. Stroud, So I 0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:10.000 think all things given. Every once in a while, you 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:14.360 you have a you have a setback or two that 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:18.160 takes place. His is a little bit more visible, is 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:22.720 a little bit bigger than what maybe most people's would be. 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:27.880 But with that being said, I think it's the right move. Yeah, now, 0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:30.400 I don't think it's the wrong move at all. And 0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:34.840 all it does is move the timeline, you know, in 0:09:34.960 --> 0:09:37.480 terms of what it is that you have going on 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:43.000 with CJ Stroud year fifth year option. It's standard, so 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.360 it's not like this is earth moving. The bigger news. 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:49.800 The bigger story would have been if they did something 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:52.240 different than what they did. I mean, honestly, if that's 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:55.040 if we're going to have a lead for CJ Stroud 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:58.199 in this moment, the bigger story would have been if 0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:01.280 they didn't exercise that fifth year option. 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:03.480 And what was it that they did. Did they just 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:04.360 redo the. 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:07.959 Deal altogether or are they looking at it from the 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:12.360 standpoint we're not doing anything right now, We're just going 0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:14.760 to figure out, you know, where we go with this. 0:10:15.120 --> 0:10:19.680 I think that this obviously shows that there's confidence in 0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:23.240 CJ Stroud. And again, like I said that, the bigger 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:26.800 deal would have been if they didn't exercise the extension. 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.160 Yeah, it makes all the sense in the world. It's 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:32.439 not a surprise that they picked up the fifth year option. 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:38.120 I think that what this does do, though, is illustrates 0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:41.240 how massive this next season is for him, because if 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:43.520 it comes out and it looks like it did this 0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:46.200 year and it's a carryover from what the postseason looked like, 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:48.599 then all of a sudden, we got a real conversation 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:51.920 on our hands about what what do you do? Because 0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:54.080 you've got a defense that can win a Super Bowl 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:57.800 right now. As we've talked about, watching that game, I 0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:01.760 felt frustrated that the game against New I felt frustrated 0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:05.440 for the defense and you could see their frustration because 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:07.640 they were getting the ball back. They were getting after 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.160 mac Jones like it was and there was you know, 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:12.160 a couple of plays down the field you know that 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:14.280 they may have missed on, but there were so many 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:18.800 opportunities there. And it's just crazy to think where we 0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:21.320 were a couple of years ago and where we are now. 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.520 And I'm not saying that that this is you know, 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:27.520 a comp because it's you know, the one and two 0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:29.400 and all that stuff to go along with it, but 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.160 you know, we've seen it before to where a quarterback 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.439 gets off to a hot start and then a couple 0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:37.240 of things happen and next thing, you know, we're looking 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:39.320 back on going, oh, maybe it's not the same. And 0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:41.439 I don't want to jump the gun on this, but man, 0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:44.040 there was a lot of conversation about Carson Wentz and 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.760 a lot of conversation about the early start of his 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:49.040 career and he was a you know, MVP this and that, 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.480 and things just never got on track after he started 0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:54.760 to struggle and the you know, the health issues and 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.200 all that came along with it, and it would help 0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.720 if he had a consistent run game. That Joe Mixon 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:01.400 saich suation it was. 0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:02.240 It didn't work out. 0:12:02.480 --> 0:12:04.880 But I just think that all of a sudden, they've 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:08.440 gone from you've got your quarterback of the future, You've 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:11.120 got your defense. This is a team to watch too. 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:13.000 I don't know. 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:19.439 Well, here's here's the here's the sensible conclusion to this situation. 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:21.719 C J. 0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:28.320 Stroud is and his development is connected to Damico Ryans 0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:34.079 and his job security. If if this season, this upcoming 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:40.959 season is bad for c J. Stroud, depending on how 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:43.880 bad it is, you have to have the conversation as 0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:49.079 to how this impacts the head coaching position. I believe 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:56.400 poor play this is an indication that signifies here's here's 0:12:56.400 --> 0:13:04.000 the thing. Do you redo the now if you're confident 0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.360 and what CJ. Stroud brings to the table for the 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:09.720 future of this team as the franchise quarterback? 0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:10.600 Yes or no? 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:10.640 No. 0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:15.800 If you're confident and what CJ. Stroud brings to the table, 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:19.120 do you extend his deal and give him a new 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:22.760 deal beyond just doing the fifth year the fifth year option? 0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:25.360 Yeah? Right, yeah, if. 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:29.240 That's your conclusion, Jonas right, which that should be anybody's conclusion. 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.240 If that's your conclusion, then now you got to ask 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:36.600 yourself the question, why just do the fifth year option? 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:40.480 Are you waiting to do it in training camp? When 0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:44.800 are you planning on doing the full extension of or 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:46.120 just doing a new contract? 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.920 Usually you extend it out whatever it may be. 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:53.959 It says to me, if they take this into the season, 0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:57.160 they're basically saying we're not giving you a long term 0:13:57.160 --> 0:14:00.520 contract because you may be out, and if you're out, 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:02.719 that means the head coach is going to be out too, 0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:09.000 which signifies a rebuilt because you're basically wasting away a gifted, 0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:11.880 talented championship caliber defense. 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:14.200 I mean, think about it like this. Two years ago, 0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:17.720 we were talking about maybe the greatest rookie quarterback season 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:20.280 of all time, at least in the argument of, you know, 0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:22.760 one of the great rookie quarterback seasons of all time, 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.840 quarterback of the future, gonna make you know, two hundred 0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:28.120 three hundred whatever the contract is at that time when 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:32.160 when his deal is due to be done. We've gone 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:35.320 from that too. Yeah, maybe it's not a bad idea 0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:39.040 to benchmin a playoff game like that was a real conversation, 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:44.200 so bad, that's a real coal sitting there couches said 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:46.920 should they bench the day stroud they were being they 0:14:46.960 --> 0:14:50.080 were asking to Mieko Ryans about a post game and 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:53.280 the fact and it's and it wasn't the craziest thought 0:14:53.280 --> 0:14:57.080 in the world. And this is you could tell in 0:14:57.240 --> 0:15:00.680 watching that playoff game it was a lot arming man 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:04.720 because he looked rattled. It looked like there was other 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:08.080 stuff going on that he wasn't. He just couldn't figure 0:15:08.120 --> 0:15:10.120 it out and get out of his own way. And 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:13.320 the fact that that was a real discussion to be had, 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:16.280 I think tells you a lot about where he was 0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:18.720 at in that game. And why this offseason is such 0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:22.200 a big deal. And look, I hope that that it 0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:24.160 works out because c J. Stroud, to your point, seems 0:15:24.160 --> 0:15:27.000 like a really good dude. You never hear anything bad 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:29.000 about him. He's not getting in trouble, none of that 0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:32.280 stuff that you hear going on with him. But it 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:36.840 is fair to wonder if maybe we jumped the gun 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:40.280 a little bit following one season only to find out 0:15:40.480 --> 0:15:43.600 things look things look awkward. And for what it's worth, 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:47.000 you know, Demiko Ryans made a bold move to where 0:15:47.600 --> 0:15:51.600 you went from. You had an offensive coordinator in Houston, 0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:54.640 c J. Stroud's rookie year who was being interviewed for 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:56.720 head coaching jobs because of the work he did with 0:15:56.760 --> 0:15:59.320 c J. Stroud too out of a job the next year. 0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:02.320 Like there's been turnover there as well too. It just 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:05.080 feels like it's a lot and it just again it 0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.120 illustrates why this year is so important for him. 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:10.840 There's no jumping the gun on having a stellar season 0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:14.520 because you don't have stellar seasons by accident. You have 0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:19.320 stellar seasons because of your preparation, because everything you know 0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:22.480 went the way that it was supposed to go. Things 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:24.680 just haven't gone the way that they're supposed to gone 0:16:24.960 --> 0:16:27.720 on the offensive side of the ball, and more specifically CJ. 0:16:27.880 --> 0:16:31.360 Stroud, So there's always. 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:36.200 The opportunity to improve and become more of what you 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:41.040 need to become, versus just slipping into the abyss of 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:47.280 being in the pool of serviceable, serviceable quarterbacks that actually 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:50.920 could have been looked at and viewed as a franchise guy. 0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:54.720 It happens all the time. I was in DC when RG. 0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:58.280 Three got there, talk about a meteoric rise, a quick 0:16:58.360 --> 0:17:02.760 meteorc rise. His first season was as stellar as it 0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:08.000 gets as well, just so happens. Hellodi Nada got ahold 0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:10.600 of his leg, and his leg was never the same, 0:17:10.640 --> 0:17:13.880 and neither was his game. Sometimes that happens. 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:17.720 Sometimes guys get off the slow starts and then they 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:18.399 end up. 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:23.320 Being for freaking Hall of Famers. We don't know what 0:17:23.400 --> 0:17:25.800 the book is, it's not out, it's not written yet 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:26.280 for CJ. 0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:31.919 Stroud, but it's a better decision to. 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:37.119 Give him the confidence and the backing and support that 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:41.800 he needs, rather than in this NFL climate, this year, 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:46.600 this offseason, to actually think that you're going to sever 0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:52.640 the relationship, destroyed a relationship between you and CJ. Stroud 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:57.360 over poor play during the course of last year. 0:17:57.480 --> 0:18:00.760 I mean, look, could be worse, be worse, could have 0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:04.480 that weirdo back. You know, there is that I mean. 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:05.560 And he is back. 0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.119 They got baptized? Who did. 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:10.480 DeShawn? 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:12.640 Yeah? Did he really? Congratulations? 0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:16.879 He got baptized, man like, So you can't keep hitting 0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:18.960 him with it, Like I wonder if they dried him 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:21.160 off with a tap. But anyway, all right, so that's 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:23.000 the last time I'm gonna do it, right, I'm going 0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:25.920 last time. I'm gonna take a shot. I wonder how 0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:29.480 many tiles they used to dry him off? No, but seriously, 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:33.640 like that's fairy. I mean, they say when you get 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:37.159 when you get baptized, the old you dies and the 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:38.359 new you emerges. 0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:42.280 I believe in grace. 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:49.880 I believe in being able to redeem yourself. Redemption stories 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:58.720 are phenomenal. Deshaun Watson has a tremendous opportunity to be 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:02.920 a great redemption story, and I hope it plays out 0:19:02.960 --> 0:19:06.399 that way, and I hope for CJ. Stroud it plays 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:07.760 out that way. But I'll tell you what. 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:13.439 Twenty five twenty five nine, Yeah, twenty five nine, twenty 0:19:13.480 --> 0:19:21.840 five nine, twenty five nine, shut hutt hut hut all 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:25.760 the way to my bank account.
