But our lead this hour 51 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: is from La Via the NFL owners meetings. A lot 52 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: of good content coming out of the Valley of the 53 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 2: Sun adjacent at a luxury resort. So Sean McVay, the 54 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 2: top coach in the NFL today, no one would disagree 55 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: with that. So Sean McVay spoke about the party hardy 56 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: pass catcher who's been making headlines in the tabloids for 57 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: the last couple of months. That would be Pooka Nokouah. 58 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: McVeigh had a lot to say. Among the comments from 59 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: Sean McVay, he said that he did have a talk. 60 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 2: He had a talk with Pooka nicour this year about 61 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 2: the activity being responsible and essentially the stan Lee quote 62 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 2: with the great responsibility comes blah blah blah blah blah, 63 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: game that whole thing. As he's representing the RAMS organization, 64 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 2: and he said, McVeigh, he trusts Pooka Nicoua is a 65 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,239 Speaker 2: good human being, and he's not going to rush to judgment, 66 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: he said. And he says, McVeigh said, he trusts the 67 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: kid's heart, he said, among other things, and he's going 68 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 2: to continue to help him grow. McVeigh also mentioned the 69 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 2: quote expectations for his receiver. Pooka said that this is 70 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 2: an opportunity for him to learn and grow. All right, 71 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 2: there you go. Okay says that he thinks Pooka will 72 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 2: be a RAM for a really long time. What does 73 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: that mean really long time? Your definition of really long 74 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 2: time and my definition of really long time two different things. 75 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 3: So that's a good jumping off point. 76 00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: Let us discuss the question, what's the meaning if any 77 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 2: that you're pulling out of RAMS Coach Sean McVay, as 78 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 2: we parse the words of his comments about Puka and 79 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: Akua on the future and what's been going on here 80 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 2: in Ramland. In Ramland, so I've got algebra, evil twin 81 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: and velvet curtain, and we will combine all of these 82 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: things together, and we're gonna make some chicken palm, chicken parmesan, 83 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 2: that's what We're gonna make. A little fetacini on the side. 84 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 2: So a the takeaway on this one is rather obvious. 85 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: The takeaway from Sean mvay's comments is the classic. It's 86 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: a el classico exercise in what's known as situational ethics, 87 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 2: is what it is. We know what's going on here. 88 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 2: This We learned this from a former Fox Sports radio contributor. 89 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: I don't know if the guys worked here or not. 90 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 2: I know he did a couple of years ago. Steve 91 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 2: Kaim the general manager of the Cardinals for a while, 92 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 2: and they brought him in to speak cliches during the draft. 93 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 2: It's very good at that. However, Steve Khim one of 94 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: the all time great quotes when he was with the 95 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals years ago, and he famously said, if Hannibal 96 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: Lecter ran a four to four, the teams would call 97 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: it just an eating disorder, as they prepared to draft him. 98 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 2: And that's it. And so the Rams, I know what 99 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: they're doing. Here's obvious. What they're doing in the quotes good. 100 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: So they're doing the back of the Napkin what we 101 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 2: call malar algebra, which is pkt equals s M two squared. 102 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 2: It's a spin off of Einstein's theory. And what is this, well, 103 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 2: production productivity. Productivity keeps talent as long as Sean Vivey's 104 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 2: ego can square the talent. As long as that happens, 105 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 2: we're good now in the NFL. When you hear character 106 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: concerns and quotes, I think we know this by now, 107 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 2: but it's a refresher course. So if you hear character concerns, 108 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: that is often just a synonym for not talented enough yet. 109 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 2: All right, If you're talented, then it's all different. It's 110 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 2: the production buffer. As long as Puka Nakua continues to 111 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 2: put up top five numbers for a wide receiver, historical 112 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: numbers for a player drafted in the middle rounds like 113 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: he was, his off the field fret boy antics are 114 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: going to be categorized as growing pains. It's just growing 115 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: pains the moment those one hundred yard games with one 116 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 2: or two touchdowns turned into forty yard games with no touchdowns. 117 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 2: When that happens, abra cadabra, suddenly the same teachable moments 118 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 2: will be cited as the reason that he has to 119 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 2: be shipped out of town. We cannot have him anymore. 120 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 4: You know that. 121 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 2: I know that, every man, woman and child knows. That's 122 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 2: how it works. So different in any business, people get 123 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 2: all worked up about football. Work in radio. There were 124 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: some people that worked at places I've been that were 125 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: complete losers, but they got ratings and they made the 126 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 2: company money. So they put up with it. When the 127 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 2: ratings weren't there and they stopped making money for the company. 128 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: They're doing podcasts. That's how that works. That's the game 129 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: right there. That's the game. And so Sean McVay, it's 130 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: pretty simple here. McVeigh isn't managing the player pookin Akua. 131 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 2: He's not. He's managing the asset pookin a coua, as 132 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 2: are the rams in this case. He will tolerate the 133 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 2: distraction as long as the ROI the return on investment 134 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 2: is high. And it's not about being a mentor or 135 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 2: anything like that. It's like just wins and losses, wins 136 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 2: in blankety blank losses and who gets you closer to 137 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 2: that that point and we're gonna have to pay pookin 138 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 2: a coua a ton a ton of money. He'll be 139 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: the highest paid receiver in the NFL shortly now. Meanwhile, 140 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 2: to the Nighters NFC West, we stay in the NFC 141 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 2: West where we have a he said, he said, situation. 142 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 2: Not exactly on the same page now that this involves 143 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan, who regurgitated essentially the same talking points that 144 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: John Lynch, the general manager, had said regarding Brandon Ayuk, 145 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 2: the wide receiver who walked away from the forty nine ers, 146 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: and I just didn't want to play. And the consensus 147 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: between Shanahan and Lynch is that Brandon Ayuck has played 148 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: his last snap with the forty nine ers. At the 149 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 2: same time, they're not in any kind of hurry. They're 150 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 2: not looking to get rid of anyone any anytime soon. 151 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 2: Meaning there's this holding pattern which is going on. There's 152 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,599 Speaker 2: like a holding pattern going on right now. And Shanahan 153 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: gave a long winded co Respontis said, I don't have 154 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 2: a date on this. He said, however, he said, but 155 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 2: I know eventually it'll be resolved. It will resolve itself. 156 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: He said, well, I bring this up. I said, it's 157 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 2: a he said, he said, situation. So a couple hours later, 158 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 2: walking in just dropping money because you know, he's a 159 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: rich guy that inherited the money. Forty nine Ers owner 160 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 2: Jed York, who was born on not just third base, 161 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 2: he was born halfway to home plate. So Jed York 162 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: singing a much different tune. The aristocrat owner of the 163 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 2: forty nine Ers, even going as far as to imply 164 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: that there is a possibility that Brandon Ayuck will remain 165 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 2: in the Bay Area for another NFL season. York said, quote, 166 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 2: I think anything, anything's possible, right, he said. We want 167 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 2: to make sure that we have as talent today roster 168 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: as possible. First and foremost, York said, he meaning Ayuck 169 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 2: needs to get healthy and be able to reform. Blah 170 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah blah blah. He's a really good 171 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 2: football player. All right, question here it is, how do 172 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 2: you decode that? 173 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 3: He said? 174 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 2: He said, situation mixed messages between Kyle Shanahan and the 175 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 2: owner and regarding wide receiver Brandon Iok in his future 176 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: there in the northern California region. So on this one, 177 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 2: this is a classic case of right hand versus invisible 178 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 2: hand and the owner talking out of his tookis you 179 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 2: got Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch, who are in Lockstown, right, 180 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 2: they're just regurgitating the same talking points, which means they're 181 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 2: in agreement on this. And then you've got the owner 182 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 2: coming in here and he's. 183 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 4: Oh, no, no, no, I don't know. 184 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm gonna go with Shanahan and Lynch because 185 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 2: they're the ones that are in the foxhole, if you will. 186 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:43,559 Speaker 2: And they've pretty much acted throughout this offseason like morticians 187 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 2: who are already measuring the pine box for auk with 188 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. That that's how that's going. And 189 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: we've seen enough, we can't handle anymore all that stuff. 190 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: He played his last snap, all that rigamarole, and they're 191 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 2: just waiting for the NFL Draft, which is still about 192 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 2: a month away. And then at that point, unload cargo, 193 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 2: unload cargo at that point. And so you've got that. 194 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 2: And I just love the fact that Jed York is 195 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: acting like a total jackwagon in this, tossing out a 196 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 2: word salad and clearly not either not paying attention to 197 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 2: what Shanahan and Lynch have said or just completely oblivious. 198 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: Either way, it's the same thing. And so so there 199 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 2: you go, and give me a break. This is the tail. 200 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 2: It's the tail of the twins. You've got Brandon Ayuck, 201 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 2: who's become Casper's evil twin, Crisper, you know, the unfriendly 202 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 2: ghost haunting the franchise and all that. And the guy 203 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: was a QQ, not q bert QQ. He quiet quit 204 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 2: on the forty nine ers, ghosting almost everyone. 205 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 3: Which what do I know. I just see the Overnight show. 206 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 2: I'm generally speaking, that's not something that goes over very well. 207 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 3: Am I wrong on that? 208 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 2: Okay? I don't think I am. I don't think. I 209 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 2: mean failed to meet the even the minimum standards of 210 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: professional lism. That's it, and the main reason that Brandon 211 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 2: will not be back. He's not going to renegotiate his contract. 212 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 2: He already lost millions of dollars for this power play, 213 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: Brandon Ayuk, and you look about it. You look, you 214 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 2: look around, and you're like, well, okay, so he's got 215 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 2: a twenty five million dollar or something like that roster 216 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 2: bonus through September first. So there's a better chance that 217 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 2: I get twenty five million dollars from the forty nine 218 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: ers and that Ornesto is there to take a picture 219 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 2: of me while I get the check, the oversized check 220 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 2: for twenty five million dollars from the Niners while wearing 221 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: a Rams hat. There's a better chance of all that 222 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 2: happening than Brandon Ayuk getting that roster bonus from the 223 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 2: forty nine ers. 224 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 4: So forget about it. Forget about it. 225 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: Not gonna happen now, Brandon who is on the naughty list, 226 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: So we expect him to finally be set free. Now 227 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 2: the shot that he gets traded for a conditional late 228 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: round Keno card, it is more likely than not, though, 229 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 2: that he will be just let go and then sign 230 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 2: one of those proven one year contracts with some horny, 231 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 2: desperate wide receiver team like the Chargers of the Commanders 232 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 2: or somebody like that, or a mystery team, the mystery team, because. 233 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 3: He ain't going back to the Niners. 234 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: All right. Now, The last word here, the last word 235 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 2: on this is we go to the bending of the rules. 236 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 4: The bending of. 237 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: The rules is where we go here. So we are 238 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 2: told that the NFL, which has been steadfast and we 239 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 2: have all these guardrails up to protect players and all 240 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 2: this stuff, well, the NFL now is considering a special 241 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: exemption to let certain teams, certain teams play more than 242 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 2: two short weekends. You know those games where you play 243 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 2: on a Sunday and then boom, right back at it 244 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: on a Thursday. Back at it all right, So they're 245 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: gonna suppose to expand that and allow more teams to play. Now, 246 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: the question is why why would Roger Goodell and the 247 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: big bosses there at the NFL. He's the biggest boss, 248 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: but he's just a conduit, a messenger pigeon, a useful 249 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 2: idiot for the owners. So why would Roger Goodell's NFL 250 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: bend the short week schedule rules give exemptions to certain teams. 251 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 2: So this is the old abra cadabra magic set, is 252 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 2: what this is. 253 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 3: It's street magic right there. 254 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: On Park Avenue in midtown Manhattan, where all of the 255 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 2: major heads of the industrial sports complex have offices within 256 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 2: a couple of blocks. I did that walk. I walked 257 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 2: past the baseball headquarters, then I went over to the 258 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: NBA and the NFL. They're all within a couple of 259 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 2: blocks of each other on either Fifth Avenue or Park 260 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 2: Avenue there in the concrete jungle of Manhattan. So anyway, 261 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: the point is publicly, the NFL puts on the white 262 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: lab coat, and they do that very well. They talk 263 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 2: about concussion protocol and player longevity and independent medical professionals 264 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 2: and all that safety first blah blah blah blah blah blah. 265 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 2: I like they're running some kind of monastery. They're really 266 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: into it. And then it's a masterclass on what we 267 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 2: call corporate flimflam is what it is. They'll look you 268 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 2: right in the eye and right straight there, right in 269 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 2: the lot of your face, is what they will do. 270 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 2: And they'll say the shield is a suit of armor 271 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 2: for the players and all this, and of course not 272 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 2: the crash test dummies. You know it, I know it, 273 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 2: we all know it. That's the way it is. And privately, 274 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: behind the velvet curtain, if you will, the story is 275 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 2: the player. The players, like the disposable paper plate at 276 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 2: the billionaires barbecue in the Hamptons and at the billionaire buffet. 277 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 2: They're at the barbecue buffet in the Hamptons and all that. 278 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: You got Jeff Bezos over there, like he's looking at 279 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 2: that flea bitten Week fourteen schedule matchup and he's like, 280 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 2: why why are we broadcasting a garage sale. We're like 281 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: the largest company in the world. Why are we broadcasting 282 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 2: this trek? What is that? He wants theater like they 283 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 2: Amazons spent a lot of money. They want Lamar Jackson, 284 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 2: they would like the cannon arm, Josh Allen, they would 285 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 2: like to see magic Man, Patrick Mahoney and all that, 286 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 2: and they want to see him. And then they're limited 287 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 2: on how many games they can play, So why don't 288 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: we get more of them? And what sugar Daddy wants, 289 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 2: Sugar Daddy gets. The NFL is treating the player longevity 290 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 2: like stale brand. And of course they have to just 291 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 2: keep Amazon happy because they want more of Amazon's money, 292 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 2: so Amazon can raise prices. I got an email from 293 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 2: a guy complaining. He said, Netflix is raising prices. I said, 294 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: and I guess YouTube would raise prices. I'm like, yeah, 295 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 2: this is what happens. Professional sports gets involved and the 296 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 2: price of everything goes up. One of the main reasons 297 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 2: I was told years ago one of the reasons, like 298 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 2: I was just in Vegas this weekend, one of the 299 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 2: reasons they started charging for parking is because of the 300 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 2: hockey team, the arena they put behind New York New York. 301 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 2: They got to make some money from parking, and so hey, 302 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: let's just charge everyone thirty five dollars to part we'll 303 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 2: screw everybody. Wait till the a star plane. They'll raise 304 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 2: the price of parking right there on the strip in 305 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 2: Las Vegas, and everything gets more expensive, and it just 306 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 2: gets trickled down to the to the owners in sports 307 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 2: and the teams, and that's how that works. 308 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 3: It is the Ban Malor Show. 309 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 2: If you'd like to comment here, you can join us 310 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 2: at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
