1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 2: It is our two on this Wednesday. We play the

4
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,039
Speaker 2: show Heyo Tani game coming up. Very little news on

5
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 2: Show Heyo Tani. Almost the news is that there's no

6
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 2: news on show Heyo Tani. We'll talk to Jeff pass

7
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: In to the Mothership. He's at the Winter Baseball meetings.

8
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,639
Speaker 2: Our teams being told specifically, do not talk about the

9
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 2: process of trying to recruit show Heyo Tani or you

10
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 2: will be out because Dave robertson the Dodgers violated that yesterday.

11
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: Where's he going and how much is he going to cost?

12
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: We'll play the show Hayo Tani game coming up. Phone

13
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 2: calls always welcome. Operator Tyler standing by actually sitting by eight,

14
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 2: seven to seven three DP show Bucks, Pacers, Pelicans, Lakers

15
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 2: all make it to the final four of the in

16
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 2: season Tournament. Trevor Lawrence high ankle sprain still ify his

17
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: condition for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. There's been

18
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 2: a lot of talk about the MVP, and sometimes we

19
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: try to shoehorn somebody in there like rock Perty. I

20
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: don't think he's the most valuable player on his own team,

21
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: but that doesn't mean he can't win the MVP.

22
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 3: We like to give it to a quarterback.

23
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 2: Rock Perty helps save that team, but when they play

24
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 2: high end, when they play great, Deebo Samuel to me

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: is the difference maker for them. I mean, they have

26
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 2: a few of these players, impact players, but we give

27
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: it to a quarterback. Case in point, each of the

28
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: last ten MVPs have come from a team that was

29
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 2: either the number one or number two seed. Dallas as

30
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 2: of today is the number five Seeds, So for trying

31
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: to get Dak Prescott in there, its history is not

32
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: on his side. Number one Seeds Peyton Manning twenty thirteen,

33
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 2: Cam Newton twenty fifteen, Tom Brady twenty seventeen, Patrick Mahomes

34
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, Lamar Jackson twenty nineteen, Aaron Rodgers twenty twenty,

35
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,919
Speaker 2: Rodgers twenty twenty one, Mahomes twenty twenty two, two Seeds

36
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: Rogers twenty four team Matt Ryan in twenty sixteen. So

37
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: ten years every year the best four teams producing the MVP.

38
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 2: So there's certainly a trend here. That's why this game

39
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 2: is so important for Dak Prescott. Obviously for the Cowboys

40
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: It's so important for the Cowboys because if you end

41
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: up as the number five seed and you lose this game,

42
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 2: you're going to be on the road. It feels like

43
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 2: Philly is vulnerable.

44
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 3: Now.

45
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 2: You got to get them and then maybe you become

46
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 2: you move up to be the number one seed, or

47
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: you certainly win the NFC East. And that's why we're

48
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 2: looking at this game and maybe a standalone game for

49
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: both Jalen Hurts, who was an MVP candidate. Lamar Jackson's

50
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 2: also in there, but Dak has the best chance to

51
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 2: win the MVP by these next four games that they have,

52
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 2: and more importantly, Cowboy gets into a better situation as

53
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 2: far as the playoffs go. Why is there some groaning

54
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: on the other side?

55
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 4: Mar Marvino first, the best chance he's got to get past.

56
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 4: We always forget about Mahomes. Mahomes is like almost like

57
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 4: a Jordan type trajectory.

58
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 3: I don't think people are talking about him, but that's

59
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 3: like that.

60
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be one of those things where

61
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 4: they give it to Mahomes because no one else stepped

62
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 4: up when they needed to.

63
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 2: So Dak Prescott, if he loses to Philadelphia, he has

64
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 2: to step up too. Mahomes hasn't played great. I mean,

65
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson to me, is probably more of an MVP

66
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: candidate now than Mahomes is.

67
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 5: Now.

68
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: That doesn't mean Mahomes won't win the super Bowl, but

69
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: I'm just talking about it feels like there's more momentum

70
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 2: around the Baltimore Ravens, that people have an idea that

71
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 2: they might be the best team in the AFCI.

72
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 4: But to your sorry not to interrupt, but to interrupt, yep,

73
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 4: to your point, I think the Ravens have to go

74
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 4: either the one seed or the two seed, and I

75
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 4: think Kansas City is already there as far as like

76
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 4: the one seed, so it could be one of those

77
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 4: things where and we already know what Patrick Mahomes will

78
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 4: do in the postseason, so you know what, let's give

79
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 4: it to him. I don't know what Lamar Jackson is

80
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 4: gonna do. I don't know what Dak Prescott's.

81
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 3: Okay, what if Miami ends up with the number one seed?

82
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: Tyreek kl not too No, okay, but I do think

83
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: Dak with these next four games, these are all these

84
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 2: are he did well against bad competition, and now is

85
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 2: when you prove that you're the MVP by these next

86
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: four games that they play. You got Philadelphia, got Buffalo,

87
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: you got Miami, and you got Detroit. Those are all

88
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 2: quality teams.

89
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, Plum, I believe for a different reason, Dak Prescott

90
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 6: is going to have a hard time winning the MVP

91
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 6: even if he plays balls out the rest of the way. Right,

92
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 6: let's say he Here's the thing. I think the media

93
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 6: people think of the Cowboys as a regular season team,

94
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 6: not a really threatened team, and I think that's going

95
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 6: to hurt his MVP chances.

96
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 3: Even though it's a regular season award.

97
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 6: I think they're going to hesitate to vote for him

98
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 6: because that vote will blow up in their face in

99
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 6: the playoffs. Also, I think media members are probably tired

100
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,239
Speaker 6: of some of their brethrens over coverage of that team,

101
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 6: and that may turn them off to vote for Dak Prescott.

102
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 2: I think the media understands that's yes, that's where their

103
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 2: bread is buttered, the Cowboys. That's why every one of

104
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 2: these shows they go out of their way. It's a

105
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 2: quote from Mike McCarthy. Let's, you know, spend a segment

106
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 2: on that Dak Prescott MVP. You immediately have eyeballs immediately,

107
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: he's getting he'll get more MVP coverage than he deserves

108
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 2: or he already has.

109
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 6: I think that might be my point that it's almost

110
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 6: like this is going to be a not right comparison.

111
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 6: Remember when the Joker was that Denver he won MVP,

112
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 6: but then they didn't advance in the playoffs. Then last

113
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 6: year a lot of people bailed on him for MVP

114
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 6: of the regular season and he won the whole title,

115
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 6: but people are like, he doesn't do it in the postseason.

116
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 6: I'm not going to give him my MVP to vote again.

117
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 6: Dak is a different category, but I think it's going

118
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 6: to make him second hurts. I think has more something,

119
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 6: a little more in the tank with the media in

120
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 6: a good way where the better story it's close though.

121
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 2: Now the better story is Dak winning the MVP. It

122
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 2: is Super Bowl MVP.

123
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 3: Well that would be an unbelievable, unbelievable story. Well, someone

124
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 3: will find it downside to it.

125
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, well we found it downside to the Cowboys yesterday

126
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 2: we said, oh my god, Dak is playing great.

127
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 3: Could be the MVP.

128
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 2: You gotta pay him, You got to pay the CD LAMB,

129
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: you gotta pay Michael Parsons. Oh man, this is terrible

130
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: for the Cowboys. I don't know if many people had

131
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 2: that take, but we did. Unless you don't win a

132
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, then you know this is going to be

133
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 2: pretty tough in the off season. As Jerry Jones goes,

134
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 2: I'm going to pay. Let's say he pays. Dak is

135
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 2: going to get maybe fifty five sixty million dollars. Maybe

136
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 2: what's Michael Parsons gonna get. You're gonna get thirty million

137
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 2: a year? What's seed Day ced Lamb gonna get twenty

138
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 2: million dollars a year? So you could be spending one

139
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 2: hundred and ten million dollars each year on those players.

140
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: Those three, yeah, pull.

141
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 6: And one of them. You can't do it. It's kind

142
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 6: of like Tyreek Hill with the Chiefs. They want to

143
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 6: keep Kelsey, they want to keep some defenders, they want

144
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 6: to keep Mahomes. One of the big three cannot stay.

145
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 6: You can't have three kind.

146
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 2: Of well, you can't let Michael Parsons go correct, and

147
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 2: Dak has proved his worth the fact that the Chiefs

148
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 2: but he wanted twenty eight or twenty nine million dollars,

149
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: I mean, is he worth it? He's worth it to

150
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 2: the Dolphins. He wasn't worth it to the Chiefs and

151
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 2: they won a Super Bowl. Like if you said, hey,

152
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: you want to do it over now, maybe this year

153
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 2: they might go, you know, maybe pony up that money.

154
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 2: I think they thought it doesn't matter what kind of

155
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 2: receivers we put there, that Patrick will make them better.

156
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: And that's not necessarily the case this year, at least

157
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 2: not yet. But that's just history is not on Dak

158
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 2: Prescott's side. If he's not the number one or number

159
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 2: two seats. I mean, whoever is going to win the

160
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 2: MVP their team is probably the one or two seat.

161
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 7: Yes, but Dak has proven his worth, but he has

162
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 7: he proven his highest player paid player.

163
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 3: In the game work.

164
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 7: Well, he's just next up well, and I understand that,

165
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 7: but just because he's next up doesn't mean that it's

166
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 7: the right call.

167
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 2: Well, you have to be all in or all out,

168
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: Like you can't franchise him. You're gonna I imagine MVP

169
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 2: and you're gonna go h you know, I don't know.

170
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 2: But then does it matter what they do in the postseason?

171
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 2: Is that really what they Let's say they go to

172
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 2: the NFC title again, you're gonna pay him go to

173
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. You're gonna pay him. Win the Super Bowl,

174
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: They're gonna pay him. So I don't know if there's

175
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's a jumping off point here.

176
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 2: If I'm Jerry Jones and I go, I don't know,

177
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 2: fifty million plus a year. Well, I keep wondering, why

178
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 2: can't we do that? Why can't we just say, hey,

179
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,079
Speaker 2: how about you know you're not the best quarterback in

180
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 2: the NFL. You're a top ten quarterback, maybe top seven quarterback,

181
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: maybe top five.

182
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 3: How about we get something now?

183
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 2: They screwed up the negotiation the last time, and I'm like,

184
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 2: I don't know what Jerry Jones is doing, but he

185
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,599
Speaker 2: is going to get taken to the cleaners by Dak Prescott.

186
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 7: There needs to be some room for a top fifteen

187
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 7: quarterback who had a top five year, you know what

188
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 7: I mean, Like a sliding scale that says, all right,

189
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 7: you know, like you're not actually that good, but man,

190
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 7: you had a great season. This might be the best

191
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 7: season you ever have. Okay, those people exist. Yes, Paul

192
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 7: Gino Smith got one of those. Yes he got a

193
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 7: mid level.

194
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 6: Ryan Tannehill got a mid level, like one of those

195
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 6: four for twenty four for eighty type deals where it's

196
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 6: they don't.

197
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 3: Call it mid level.

198
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 6: You know, Dak Prescott had a cracked ankle and had

199
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 6: won nothing and he got a monster contract from Jerry

200
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 6: Jones with a broken ankle and no Super Bowl appearances.

201
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he got the full boat. Yeah no, I know. Yeah.

202
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 7: See, you know I keep going back to too with

203
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 7: not on deck. But like with Brock Purdy and talking

204
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 7: about MVP talk and all this stuff, it was only

205
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 7: a couple of weeks ago that we were talking about

206
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 7: if mac Jones was on the forty nine Ers and

207
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 7: Brock Purdy was on the Patriots, would things be different

208
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 7: and be like no, mac Jones would be bawling out

209
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 7: of control. Yeah, So he's essentially mac Jones is one

210
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 7: team away from probably having a ring and looking at

211
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 7: a max deal, like a massive, massive, massive contract and

212
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 7: MVP talk. But instead he just went to the wrong

213
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 7: team and now his career isn't over, but he's a backup.

214
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 8: Now.

215
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 2: Yes, that is crazy, and I do think that is true.

216
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 2: It's where you go, who's your coaching staff. They had

217
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,479
Speaker 2: a defensive coordinator as their offensive coordinator.

218
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 3: You had no skill position.

219
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 2: If you put mac Jones on the Niners, with that

220
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 2: coaching staff and those weapons, I'm guessing he's going to

221
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 2: look pretty good.

222
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 7: So like Andrew Perloff would be losing his mind right

223
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 7: now because we're making a system argument. Is system like,

224
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 7: that's why Tyreek Hill should be the MVP. It doesn't

225
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 7: matter where he goes, He's going to be awesome. He's

226
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 7: going to be great. It's not going to be like, yeah,

227
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 7: but I got put on the wrong team, so can't

228
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 7: run fast anymore, can't catch them all anymore.

229
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 6: Yes, but then there's maximizing the system. Jimmy Garoppolo could

230
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 6: only do so much with the Niners.

231
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 3: He doesn't.

232
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 6: He never felt explosive at the quarterback position, or really

233
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 6: especially gutsy or you'd be confident about him in the

234
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 6: fourth quarter. Rock Party feels more, much more trustworthy, much

235
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 6: more to the downfield thrower.

236
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I understand all of this. You know that he

237
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: has been great for them. I don't know if I

238
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 2: look at him and say, now, and maybe it's not

239
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 2: fair if you put him on another team. Man, how

240
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 2: many players if you put them on other teams quarterbacks

241
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 2: and you say, all right, make some magic. Here is

242
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes going to do anything for Carolina probably not,

243
00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: like if they won six games seven, Okay, Bryce Young,

244
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 2: if I put him on Kansas City, Nah, There's certain

245
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 2: situations where you go, if I put Patrick Mahomes on

246
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 2: the Jets right now, I feel like they'd be better.

247
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 2: They would, but how much better? Like how much better?

248
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 3: I feel like a lot better.

249
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 2: But he has the ideal situation you need to have

250
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 2: that at that position. Mac Jones has one of the

251
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: worst situations you could possibly have.

252
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 3: That team is terrible.

253
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 2: There's no offensive, you know, minded person who can help

254
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 2: him because he has no weapons to assist him.

255
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 3: Yeh see.

256
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 7: But there are times that you watch games like Zach

257
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 7: Wilson or Mac Jones or guys who are struggling. But yes,

258
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,599
Speaker 7: maybe their teams, some of their teams aren't great. But

259
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 7: when you're watching the game, you'll have somebody like Troy

260
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 7: Aikman be like, see, he was supposed to throw the

261
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 7: ball right here and didn't.

262
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 3: He was supposed to. Like they're missing their windows. They're

263
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 3: supposed to.

264
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 7: This guy's wide open right now, but they waited at

265
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 7: another half a second and through it and now they're covered.

266
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 6: You know, Yes, Paul A couple of years remember when

267
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 6: Mahomes got the Chiefs to the Super Bowl and they

268
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 6: got roughed up by the Bucks, and the offensive line

269
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 6: was terrible and they couldn't block anybody. Mahomes still got

270
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 6: a bad offensive line to the super Bowl, you know,

271
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 6: like that's he was so good at what he did.

272
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 6: He kept them all line.

273
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 3: He had weapons.

274
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean you're making it seem like he didn't

275
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 2: have a good offensive line. He still had good weapons.

276
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 2: I guess what I'm saying is ye, Tyreek Hill and

277
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey.

278
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 6: If he were on the Jets, he could cover up

279
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 6: their offensive line issues and maximize Garrett Wilson and maximize

280
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 6: those second tier wide receivers.

281
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 7: Travis Kelcey and Tyreek Hill can help cover up a

282
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 7: lot of That's why you get to the super Bowl. Yes, yes,

283
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 7: we cannot be making the argument right now that Patrick

284
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 7: Mahomes and Zack Wilson are interchangeable. Sorry, like I just

285
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 7: I will not allow that. It sounds like we are. No, no, no, no, no.

286
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 7: Zach Wilson on the Chiefs is not making the Chiefs.

287
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 7: Patrick Mahomes is making the Jets better. Yes, it's hard

288
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 7: to not make them better. They're terrible who could make

289
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 7: them worse.

290
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 3: Let's get through those guys.

291
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 2: Tim Boyle, Tim Boyle, he got cut. I know, yeah,

292
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 2: I wonder what Aaron Rodgers thought of that. Yes, Martin to.

293
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 3: Go back to Tyreek Hill.

294
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 4: Look, he's making Tua look like a franchise quarterback because

295
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 4: three years ago we weren't sure if Tua was a

296
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 4: franchise quarterback. And now Tyreek Hill is there and you

297
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 4: were just saying, hey, if the Dolphins are a number

298
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 4: one seat, can get the league MVP Award. That's because

299
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 4: of Tyreek Hill. Yes, Tyreek Hill is like track. That

300
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 4: level of speed is track speed.

301
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 2: There is nobody in the NFL who has an impact

302
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: non quarterback like Tyreek Hill. Now you can say some

303
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 2: of these defensive players, you know when TJ. Watt, Aaron

304
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 2: Donald not as much anymore, but you have certain defense

305
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: Michael Parsons. Tyreek Hill every single down you have to account.

306
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 2: You have to know where he is and what kind

307
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 2: of coverage you have. You have to because he's a

308
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,359
Speaker 2: home run. There's no other player like him now, justin Jefferson.

309
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: People may say he's the best receiver. Good for you,

310
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 2: you know you can have him. He's wonderful. Tyreek Hill

311
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 2: is different. Tyreek Hill reminds me of the great Bob

312
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 2: Hayes when he played for the Dallas Cowboys, an Olympic sprinter.

313
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 2: There was nobody like him in football and it was

314
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: a home run. Bob Hayes was the fastest man on

315
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 2: the field and you had to account for him.

316
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 3: And Tyreek Hill is that guy. He's unbelievably quick.

317
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: If you watch the hard knocks in season with the

318
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: Dolphins and they just have a camera on him, he

319
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 2: is so quick and off the line of scrimmage and

320
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 2: then so fast.

321
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 3: A lot of.

322
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 2: Guys have top end speed, it takes him a while

323
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 2: for top end speed. He is so quick and then

324
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 2: so fast, and he's almost thirty years of age. Yelmar,

325
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 2: is he Randy Moss level?

326
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 3: Scary? It's different. It's different.

327
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 2: Randy Moss might be the best athlete we've ever seen

328
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 2: at that position, Like he was freakish.

329
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 4: But I just mean, as soon as a two over here,

330
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 4: why is there not two over here? Because as soon

331
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 4: as he starts running like it doesn't matter if there's

332
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 4: two guys covering him, it still seems like it's impossible.

333
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 2: I want to be careful because it's recency bias with

334
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 2: Tyreek Kill and Randy Moss. Randy Moss was different than

335
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 2: any receiver when you have that height, that athleticism, the speed,

336
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 2: jumping ability. I mean, there was a lot there with

337
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 2: Randy Moss. Tyreek Hill, though, I mean he's in a

338
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 2: that's a small paragraph when you talk about they're just

339
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: different receivers, and he is.

340
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 3: He is quick and then fast.

341
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 2: A lot of guys will say, I want to be quick,

342
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 2: you can get open, get to spots. So he does that,

343
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 2: and then when he does it like that spot, then

344
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 2: he uses his speed. It's really unfair when you watch

345
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 2: and then Washington to have single coverage on him.

346
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 3: That's where you get fired during the game. Yes, Pum,

347
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 3: I'm glad.

348
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 6: We talk about Randy Moss when we can, because I

349
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 6: don't think he's You can't exaggerate what he was out

350
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 6: of the blocks as a rookie. A rookie only eleven starts,

351
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 6: sixty nine catches, seventeen touchdowns in sixty nine catches, not

352
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 6: one hundred and thirty catches. He was third in the

353
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 6: MVP voting as a rookie. That doesn't happen at the

354
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 6: wide receiver business.

355
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 2: All right, We're going to take a break the update

356
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 2: on show Heyo Tony, and we'll bring back what Dave

357
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 2: Roberts had to say about the recruitment of show Heyo Tony.

358
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 2: Even though I don't think he was supposed to speak,

359
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 2: he did. We'll talk to Jeff Pansen to the mothership.

380
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 7: Have paying five hundred million plus or Shoho Tani is

381
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 7: either a smart investment on and off the field or

382
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 7: too much of a risk with his elbow issues.

383
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 3: One to guess.

384
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say sixty five percent. Say too much of

385
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 2: a risk. Oh, it's a sixty forty split. Too much

386
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 2: of a risk. Okay, too much of a risker, how

387
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 2: about that?

388
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,880
Speaker 3: Okay, that's fine. How did I'm like you? Yeah, that's fine. Yeah.

389
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 2: Dave Roberts of the Dodgers talked to the media yesterday

390
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 2: and he had this to say about meeting with Sho

391
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 2: Hao TONI.

392
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, we know with them, you know, I don't want

393
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 5: to I'd like to be honest.

394
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 10: And so we met with show Hay and we talked

395
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 10: and I.

396
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 5: Think it went well. I think it went well.

397
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 10: But at the end of the day, he's his own man,

398
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 10: and he's going to do what's best for himself where

399
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 10: he feels most comfortable.

400
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 3: Okay.

401
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 2: Then he was asked about the possibility of keeping this

402
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: information quiet, because that's what show Hayo Tani's people want.

403
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 10: We want to respect show Hayes wishes, AS's wishes as

404
00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 10: far as being private. So I think that we took

405
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 10: the necessary ways to do that to honor his wishes.

406
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 10: But obviously, you know, people talk and things, you know,

407
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 10: and so I don't think that I need to share

408
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 10: what we talked about.

409
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 5: But I don't think. Yeah, I think that's.

410
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 10: As fourthright as I should be, and you guys deserve

411
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 10: to be right.

412
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 3: No, No, you're way too forthright.

413
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 2: No, you can't honor his wishes by then not honoring

414
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 2: his wishes. What if Dave Roberts knows the Dodgers have him,

415
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 2: Maybe he's just hey, we met with him.

416
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 3: That's all I'm going to say. And that's it.

417
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 2: You know what it's going to cost, and you've come

418
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 2: to an agreement and understanding. Maybe maybe it's taken a

419
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 2: victory lap without declaring victory. I'm trying to understand why

420
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 2: you would say anything if you're told not to say anything.

421
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 4: Yes, Mark, kind of related but unrelated. What's the best

422
00:20:58,680 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 4: move for baseball?

423
00:20:59,520 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 5: For Show?

424
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 4: Do you think it's for him to go to a

425
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 4: big city like the Dodgers or big team like the Dodgers.

426
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, he needs to be seen. They need to

427
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 2: be important games. We saw him in the World Baseball Classic.

428
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 2: We saw what it meant to him and that was big.

429
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 2: But now we need to see him in the postseason.

430
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 2: This is what we're going to miss out with Mike

431
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 2: Trout his entire career.

432
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 3: I don't know if.

433
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 2: There's been a better player who will play in less

434
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 2: playoff games than Mike Trout and it's unfortunate, but you know,

435
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 2: he got a great contract. They're not going to trade him,

436
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 2: whether they get Otani to come back or not. And

437
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: I would love to see show You want to see

438
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 2: great players play in big moments. That's how you make

439
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 2: a name for yourself and a larger name. It's not

440
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 2: about All Stars or MVPs or money that you make.

441
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 2: It's moments where you go, oh my god, that guy

442
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 2: did this with the game on the line. That's what

443
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 2: we love, right We want those moments, and I hope

444
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 2: that we get show Heyo Tani in a big moment

445
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 2: where you get to see him game on the line

446
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 2: everybody's watching, not just another game in Anaheim.

447
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 3: When you're playing the Indians.

448
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 2: You want world series with the emphasis on world and

449
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,719
Speaker 2: that's what you would get with show Hao Tony. So

450
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 2: we'll talk to Jeff Passon to the mothership that'll join

00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 3: not broken in yet. It's uh hmm. I'm with leather mmm,

469
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 3: no glove, no love. Yeah, yeah, you.

470
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: Know what while we wait for passing, maybe he's busy

471
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 2: breaking news there at the winter meetings. Let's play the show,

472
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 2: hey Toney game, where does he go? And for how much? Todd,

473
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 2: I'm going to start with you.

474
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 3: Saysco Giants for five to ten?

475
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 2: Now are you piggybacking my San Francisco Giants a little bit?

476
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 5: Can?

477
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 2: I do believe it's not gonna be the Dodgers or

478
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 2: Yankees beds, all right, see no O'Connor the showy game.

479
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 7: I think he's staying with the Angels, and I think

480
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 7: because they're not afraid to pay him lots of money,

481
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 7: they'd be happy to I think because uh, he would

482
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 7: have that's the place where he would have the most control.

483
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 7: Already he already has probably a ton, so it's like

484
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 7: he doesn't have to convince a team. I'm in charge now.

485
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 7: He already is okay. And I think comfort is going

486
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 7: to be a big factor, all right.

487
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 3: Where he's a.

488
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 7: Guy who likes routine, he likes to know how things

489
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:45,400
Speaker 7: are set, blah blah blah.

490
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 3: I think he's very happy there.

491
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 7: I think they'll pay him a fortune for a sort

492
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 7: of loyalty tax maybe right, I'm gonna say five to

493
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 7: seventy five, all.

494
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 2: Right, Marvin mud team, and for how much I'm gonna

495
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 2: go with the La Dodgers. I'm gonna go ten years,

496
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 2: five point fifty Paully.

497
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,199
Speaker 6: I would have I liked the Angels, but usually they

498
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:16,120
Speaker 6: signed guys past their prime, well past their prime historically.

499
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 6: But he does have injuries, which makes them a team

500
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 6: that would they like signing guys who are injured as

501
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 6: well historically. I'm going to go with the Dodgers at

502
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 6: five hundred and sixty five million.

503
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 3: Dollars, right, I'm going to stay with the Giants.

504
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 2: I felt all along that the Giants were loading up,

505
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 2: they were going to make a play. They're going all

506
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 2: in on show hao time. I'm going to say it's

507
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 2: a ten year deal. Uh, five hundred and forty two

508
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 2: million dollars makes a lot of sense the Giants. I

509
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 2: could very much see that. Yeah, yeah, but I could

510
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 2: see him going back to the Angels. Man if everything

511
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 2: I've read about him is that he he doesn't need

512
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 2: the spotlight. Spotlight finds him, but he doesn't go out

513
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 2: and find it. And maybe he's comfortable there. Maybe he

514
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 2: likes that situation. Maybe with Mike Trout there, it's it's

515
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 2: far from the maddening crowd enough for him that he

516
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 2: can just play baseball.

517
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, Paul, would he and his agent look at the

518
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 6: Angels track record and say, why would anything be different

519
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 6: the next ten years?

520
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,479
Speaker 3: Sure? Because you have to.

521
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 2: Well that's the first question I asked, like, what's the

522
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 2: direction here? Help me understand now he's he's already going

523
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 2: to understand kind of where they are with their players

524
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 2: farm system, and are we going to be a player?

525
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: We going to spend money? Can we spend money?

526
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 12: Like?

527
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 3: That's what I would be curious about that.

528
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 7: Yees see, Well, do we know how important winning is

529
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 7: to show Haotani?

530
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 2: I only know by watching him in the World Baseball Classic,

531
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 2: and it seemed like it was really important to him.

532
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 2: Now that's he was representing his country, and I think,

533
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 2: you know, I'm going to factor that in.

534
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 3: But I have no idea.

535
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 7: The Angels are a place that you could comfortably go play,

536
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 7: make an absolute fortune and not care about winning.

537
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, or you know, not be concerned as much about

538
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 2: that as just playing baseball.

539
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 3: There's no pressure on you.

540
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 7: Nobody is right, there's no Hey, you just signed a

541
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 7: four hundred million dollar contract and you bowed out in

542
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 7: the ALCS.

543
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 3: No, nobody's concerned about that.

544
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 2: All right, let me take a break and we'll get

545
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 2: to Jeff Passing running a little bit late.

Speaker 2: He's at the Winter Meetings and providing reports updates on

553

Speaker 2: Sports Center Baseball tonight from Nashville.

554
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 3: Thanks for joining us, Jeff.

555
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 2: What is the directive from sho Heyo Tani's people to

556
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 2: teams interested in signing him in free agency?

557
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 13: Don't talk about it?

558
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 2: But did they actually say don't? I mean Dave Roberts

559
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 2: talking about it?

560
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 12: Yeah, he talked about it, and I you know, I hope,

561
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 12: for the sake of Dave Roberts that SHOWO TONI goes

562
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 12: to the Los Angeles Dodgers because I never the question

563
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 12: we're out there like, did he not go?

564
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 13: Because he happened to make.

565
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 12: The grave mistake of acknowledging that the most money team

566
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 12: in baseball.

567
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 13: Is going yeah after.

568
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 12: They're the most money free agentcy and I you know,

569
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 12: when when I look at what the important things are

570
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,479
Speaker 12: to show heyo Tani, it's going to be winning at

571
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 12: the top. And nobody provides a better ability to win

572
00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 12: than the Los Angeles Dodgers, who year after year up

573
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 12: their division and have the highest payrolls. And it's why

574
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 12: it's impressive that the Toronto Blue Jays are in as

575
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,719
Speaker 12: much as they are in the Otani sweep states at

576
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 12: this point.

577
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 2: Okay, we weren't sure why Dave Roberts spoke the Dodger manager,

578
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 2: but then we thought maybe maybe he's got Otani. Maybe

579
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 2: he feels like, you know, this is a victory lap

580
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 2: without declaring victory lap.

581
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 12: No, no, that's not there. Yeah, okay, No, nobody feels

582
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 12: good at this point. Nobody, nobody knows what's going on.

583
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 12: The secretive nature of this whole thing is it's it's

584
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 12: just it's I feel like it's a wasted opportunity for

585
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:47,959
Speaker 12: major League base Yes, this and here's the thing. I

586
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 12: think there is a way that Shohani can keep the

587
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 12: privacy that he wants while leveraging all of the things

588
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 12: that exist in modern society to help both yourself and baseball.

589
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 12: And here's what I mean by that. It's not like

590
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 12: every time he goes and visits a team he needs

591
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 12: to sit there and have a press conference and talk

592
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 12: about it and say this and say that. All he

593
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 12: has to do is just take a picture in front

594
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 12: of a stadium and people are going to go nuts, like,

595
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 12: oh my god, he's actually visiting this team right now,

596
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 12: it's my team he might sign. And beyond that, the

597
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 12: idea be so twenty twenty three. When you have social

598
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 12: media your disposal, you have the ability to leverage a

599
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 12: narrative in your favor unlike anything we have ever seen

600
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 12: in media history, and not taking advantage of that. I'm

601
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 12: not sure it would get him paid more. Probably would,

602
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 12: but it certainly would be the sort of thing that

603
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 12: I think would help baseball and help Major League Baseball,

604
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 12: this sport that has such a difficult time permeating the

605
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 12: consciousness of sports in America. To do so in the

606
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 12: middle of an NFL season, Dan like that is an

607
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 12: opportunity you're just not going to find with other players

608
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 12: because other players are not of show.

609
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 13: Hey, Otani's caliber.

610
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 5: Seaton.

611
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 3: Would you ask Jeff the pole question.

612
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, today's pole question we have would you uh paying

613
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 7: show Hey Otani five hundred million plus is either a

614
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 7: a smart investment on and off the field or too

615
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 7: much of a risk with his elbow issues.

616
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 13: A A thousand times.

617
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 12: Be Like, I don't know how many people are saying,

618
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 12: be it's it's not just the question about the elbow, right,

619
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 12: you need to look at Otani holistically. Let's start here.

620
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 12: Aaron Judge got three hundred and sixty million dollars. He

621
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 12: was a year old than Otani when he reached free agency.

622
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 12: Both of them are coming off of MVP seasons, so

623
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 12: you can reasonably say, Dan that Otani is in the

624
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 12: three hundreds. Let's just say four hundred million, right, Let's

625
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 12: just say four hundred million for the BAP alone. And

626
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 12: I know Judge plays defense, so it's a little bit different.

627
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 12: But I still don't think it's unreasonable for four hundred million.

628
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 12: But the money beyond that that he generates through his otwiness,

629
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 12: through the fact that he is the most popular human

630
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 12: being in the country of Japan. So you have this

631
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 12: international aspect and all of the sponsorship opportunities and everything

632
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 12: that can supercharge you as an organization financially, especially if

633
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 12: you leverage it the right way. I mean, I'm going

634
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 12: to put a small number on this for what's expected

635
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 12: to be a decade plus long deal. Let's say it's

636
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 12: one hundred million. Right there, We're at five hundred already.

637
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 12: We're five hundred without even factoring in that he's been

638
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 12: a Scion caliber picture in the past. And look, I

639
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 12: have a lot of experience writing about Tommy john surgery

640
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 12: and elbow issues, and I understand that generally guys who

641
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 12: have two Tommy John's within a five year span did

642
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 12: not find a whole lot of long term when he

643
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 12: came over from Japan. Was presuming that he's the same

644
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 12: as everyone else.

645
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 5: He's not.

646
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 12: He is And this is not to suggest he is

647
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 12: going to definitively come back and be the picture that

648
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 12: he was beforehand. I don't think anyone knows that at

649
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 12: this point. But the idea that we're going to discount

650
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 12: Otani from doing something because history tells us others haven't

651
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 12: is a fool's errand and a mistake that I'm not

652
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 12: going to make twice.

653
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 3: What is the time frame.

654
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 12: Get the sense that a choice will probably be made

655
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 12: towards the I just we're getting toward the end of

656
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 12: this week, around the end of this week, and the

657
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 12: physical process is going to be something that's very real

658
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 12: and very stringent. You know, they're going to need to

659
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,800
Speaker 12: do a lot of imaging. You know, a GM who's

660
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 12: not involved in the process that I think Otani's going

661
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 12: to live in the MRI tube whenever you know, this

662
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 12: is done, because they need to be confident that if

663
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 12: they're going out and giving the biggest contract in North

664
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 12: American sports history, then you know, a deal that I

665
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 12: think in the end is probably going to be closer

666
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 12: to six hundred million than it is five hundred million.

667
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 12: If they're giving that out to the guy, then you know,

668
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 12: they need every last bit of confidence that they're not

669
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 12: buying damaged goods or that they don't you know, that

670
00:34:55,200 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 12: something doesn't exist that they don't know about. So if

671
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,240
Speaker 12: if that happens, that's probably gonna take a couple of days,

672
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 12: and you know, I get the sense that at some

673
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 12: point early next week, we're going to find out what

674
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 12: team he's playing for.

675
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 3: I wish Baseball could celebrate this.

676
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 12: It's a shame you know, you know, let me say this, Dan,

677
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 12: I feel like by us talking about this right now,

678
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 12: it is a little bit of a celebration, and in

679
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 12: the idea that we're putting a damper on this because

680
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 12: of a bad decision to try and mute people like

681
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 12: it's not looking at what you know, we want what

682
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 12: it should be. But I'm not going to look at

683
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 12: what it is and lament it too much because we're

684
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 12: going to have Otani playing somewhere. That's going to be

685
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 12: an unbelievable story. And still, you know, he's going to

686
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 12: go out and do his thing and this, you know,

687
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:03,359
Speaker 12: this offseason that has revolved around him. Juan Soto is

688
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 12: very likely going to get traded today. And it's looking

689
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 12: more and more like it's going to be the New

690
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:15,240
Speaker 12: York Yankees. You know, Yoshinobu Yamamoto is going to sign somewhere,

691
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 12: and it's going to be a ridiculous frenzy with the

692
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,959
Speaker 12: Mets and the Yankees and the Dodgers in the Red

693
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 12: Sox and the Cubs and the Blue Jays and the Giants.

694
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,879
Speaker 12: I mean, all of the big name teams and big

695
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 12: money teams are gonna be in on Yamamoto. I think

696
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 12: it is kind of a cool offseason and is as

697
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 12: much as we wish Otani were something different, I just

698
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 12: don't want to waste a whole lot of time, my

699
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 12: time personally sitting there and saying, well, what could have been?

700
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,839
Speaker 12: You know, I could have been six to three. I'm

701
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 12: five nine Dan and it's not great. But you know what,

702
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 12: I make the best of it.

703
00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 2: With your hair, you're six foot, Jeff Wee, I might

704
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 2: be have fun in Nashville. Thanks for joining us.

705
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 3: As always, my.

706
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 12: Apologies for the lateness, but thank you for accommodating. Time

707
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 12: zones are the worst.

708
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 3: Jeff pass into the Mothership.

709
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 2: He's there providing updates on Sports Center and Baseball tonight.

710
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, he kind of threw in there.

711
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 2: Juan Soto the Yankees, this Japanese pitcher that I talked about.

712
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 2: You know, sometimes you go, I'm gonna have to learn

713
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 2: how to pronounce that. That guy's name, you know, like

714
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: the Greek freak got so good that you had to

715
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 2: learn how to pronounce his name, d j u Ungalle.

716
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 2: You had to learn how to By the way, is

717
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:40,720
Speaker 2: he transferring to Florida State?

718
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 3: Rumors? Could he play this year? Could he coun he

719
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 3: be in the bowl game.

720
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 2: Can we do a like an H O V lane

721
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 2: in the portal, like you can get there and you

722
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,280
Speaker 2: can play this season?

723
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 3: Yes, don does he.

724
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 2: Know he won't be playing for a national championship no

725
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 2: matter what he does fifty touchdown passes and complete every.

726
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 3: Past Ryan in Florida. Hi, Brian, what's on your mind today?

727
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 8: DP? Good morning you front row, back row, first time,

728
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 8: long time five eleven by thirty eight waist.

729
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 11: Daan.

730
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 8: I just wanted to get your opinion, not trying to

731
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 8: be the dead horse, but look at those resumes at

732
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,760
Speaker 8: Georgia and Alabama. They kind of raised us some questions

733
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 8: for me now given the fact that the Tide lost

734
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 8: the ten at home as some close teams against A

735
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 8: and M South Florida, obviously, if they don't pull their

736
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 8: ab out haead against Auburn, this will you be up

737
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 8: for discusting. So just want to get your opinion on that.

738
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 2: Well, wait a minute, are you saying that you're still

739
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 2: saying Florida State deserves to be in there instead of Alabama?

740
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 8: No? I mean I've been listening to your show for

741
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 8: a long time and certainly understand it is a TV

742
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 8: show and it's about money. But even though Alabama beat

743
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 8: Georgia head to head, I would still take Georgia over Alabama.

744
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 8: That was on the neutral field.

745
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 2: Well, if you really want to make an argument like

746
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 2: who should be in if you're saying the four best teams,

747
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 2: Georgia is one of the four best teams in America.

748
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 2: It's a bad timing loss. The bad timing board goes

749
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 2: to Georgia. Is Georgia better than Florida State? Absolutely? Are

750
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 2: they better than Washington in my opinion, yes, and Vegas would.

751
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 3: Tell you this.

752
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 2: So Georgia lost, but Georgia to me is one of

753
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 2: the four best teams in America. Alabama beat Georgia, Therefore

754
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 2: the SEC champ is going to make the playoffs. I mean,

755
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 2: Dion even said this yesterday about Florida State. It's about business.

756
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 3: Now.

757
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,800
Speaker 2: He might say that because Florida State took Mike Norvel

758
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 2: over him as their head coach, but that's his alma mater.

759
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 2: But you know, we keep Florida State. I understand you

760
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 2: did everything you're supposed to do. Sometimes that's not good

761
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:11,359
Speaker 2: enough in something that is subjective, and that's what this is.

762
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 3: Yes, Mart, and I.

763
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,720
Speaker 4: Think George is getting punished because had they had lost

764
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,800
Speaker 4: Week two, yeah they'd be in, but it's when they lost.

765
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 4: And I feel bad for Georgia more than so than

766
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 4: Florida State because they want to let the past two

767
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,440
Speaker 4: national championships and like Rick Flayer said, to beat a man,

768
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 4: you got to beat the man. And no one's beat

769
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 4: them in the playoffs in two years.

770
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 2: So they won twenty nine in a row. They won

771
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 2: back to back national titles. Granted, they're not as good

772
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 2: this year as they were. Okay, are they better than

773
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 2: Florida State Then the answer is yes. No matter who's

774
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 2: quarterbacking Florida State, I think Georgia is still a better team.

775
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 2: Final hour on the way. Robert Griffin Junior, the third

776
