00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: know I put out three podcasts last week. We had

00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: one today. I'm recording this on Monday. Greg McElroy, former quarterback, UH,

Speaker 1: with anyone you want as well. We'll have a mail

21
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: bag today, be pretty heavy mail bag. Uh, summer months

22
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: still summer July eleven, you know, some sunshine and hopefully

23
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: everyone's enjoying the summer. I feel like a lot of

24
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: you are, because it doesn't feel like much of society

25
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: does much. Uh, these last couple of weeks and probably

26
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: these next couple of weeks, maybe I'm alone. Uh, those

27
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: podcasters are working, but football is right around the corner,

28
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: and we have training camp starting. Some some thoughts on

29
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: some things that are out there right now. Have a

30
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: couple of takes Baker Russell, Rogers, Tattoo, Zack Wilson, do

31
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: not sleep on Zach, do not sleep on those Mormons

32
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: probo utah um. So yeah, share the podcast. The game

33
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: plan is um of a podcast. Will have one obviously

34
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: if you're listening to this. On Tuesday, I will have

35
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: an open preview. When I say open preview, just some

36
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: thoughts on live and golf coming up on Wednesday, and

37
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: then probably another football one on Friday potentially, and we're talking.

38
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: I'm interviewing a couple of guys this week that will

39
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: come out next week. My being late Tahoe, having a

40
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 1: few pops. But we'll keep rocking. And rolling. You know,

41
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 1: you just you gotta keep the content flowing. We're in

42
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: the content game, and the only way content happens if

43
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: I get in front of her court computer and press record.

44
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm doing. So let's start with first

45
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: and foremost with Baker Mayfield. And there was a lot

46
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: of conversation like ultimately the Jimmy G Trey lance. Conversations

47
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: like could the forty Niners keep Jimmy G? Are they

48
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: gonna trade them what they cut them? And ultimately, while

49
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 1: I do believe that anytime you put all your chips

50
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: in the middle of the table on a young quarterback,

51
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: I think you gotta pivot and you gotta let him

52
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 1: steer the ship. Now, for every Patrick Holmes, a lot

53
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: of young quarterbacks sink the ship. They go down like

54
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: the Titanic. I mean, worst case of Ryan Leaf, JaMarcus Russell.

55
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: But a lot of guys just never live up to

56
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: the hype and become averaged below average players. Even if

57
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: they stay in the league for ten years, that's normal.

58
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: Most guys do not become top ten quarterbacks, right. So,

59
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: but you have to give him the best opportunity to succeed,

60
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 1: and you have to give him the voice in the

61
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: locker room. Andy did it once upon a time when

62
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: he traded Alex Smith, who was a really good player,

63
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: not Patrick Mahomes, but was taking the playoffs. Belichick did

64
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: it last year with Cam Newton, gave Mac Jones the

65
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: keys of the car. We'll see what happens with Trey Lance. Ultimately.

66
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: I think Jimmy is not on the team, but the

67
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: forty Niners like Jimmy G. Personally, the teammates like Jimmy G.

68
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: Everyone gets along, They've had a lot of success together.

69
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: There are probably proponents in the building of like, yeah,

70
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: we could if we can get Jimmy at the right price.

71
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want him as a backup for twenty seven

72
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: million dollars, but if it'll take a huge haircut in

73
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: me the backup order back for ten million, I'm cool

74
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: with that. Trey Lance played a couple of games that

75
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: got injured, so you could talk yourselves into that. I

76
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: would probably tend to disagree, though, I think you know

77
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: the George Kittles, the use checks would probably be open

78
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: with it. I don't necessarily think that's the right move,

79
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: but I think you could do it if you had to,

80
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: and then there are the spots where and I'm not

81
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: necessarily like this because I don't try to hold on

82
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: to hate and grudges internally, and I don't I don't

83
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: have the energy to do that. And when I operate

84
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 1: angry and mad, I'm not successful. Like I don't like

85
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: where my headspace is. I don't like the way I act.

86
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 1: I'm better operating through optimism and through positivity. And to me, like,

87
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: if you said that to me ten years ago, I

88
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: would think that was very cheesy. The older I've gotten,

89
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: the more optimistic, the more positive I've been, the more

90
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: just like forget about things and move on. The more

91
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: success I've had professionally, so I've just conditioned myself to

92
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: opt rate like that some people can. Dave Portnoy has

93
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 1: been worth hundreds of millions of dollars, operates out of

94
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: venom and anger and holds grudges in his revenge and

95
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: he thrives on that. We're seeing it with Live Golf

96
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 1: right now. Greg Norman, he has a vandetta against the

97
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: PGA Tour. He's trying to take them down and it

98
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: motivates him. He gets off on him. And everyone's different

99
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: to each their own, but I do believe and I

100
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: do fall into this category. If you were to screw

101
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 1: me in business, or if a female were to do

102
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: something to like, there's no coming back. You can be

103
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: dead to me. And I think in business it's easier

104
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: like I'm never doing business with this person again. And

105
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: you could argue that's easier said than done. It's easy like,

106
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 1: I'll never do business with them again, and then you

107
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,479
Speaker 1: end up, if you're, depending on what industry you're in,

108
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: partnering with him again. As a consumer, you may end

109
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: up buying their products. It's always easier to talk. I

110
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: do think in football, though, and in just in pro

111
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: sports in general, when the product is the person, right

112
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: like a player is ultimately your asset and your product

113
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 1: as a coach or a front office, something can happen,

114
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: And honestly, it could be an accumulation of things where

115
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: you never look at them the same. Right. You can

116
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: get into a fight with your wife and apps or

117
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: even your kid. This just happened to being my parents,

118
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: and you just hate them, they hate you. There's a

119
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: lot of anger. Again hates a strong word, but you

120
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: know what I mean. There's a lot of animosity. There's

121
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: a lot of anger. A couple of days later, you're cool. Right.

122
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: It happens a lot with your friends, right, You're like,

123
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: I can't stand this guy, and then like three days later,

124
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: your best friends again. Humans. I do think in sports,

125
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: though we've seen time and time again, things happen where

126
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: you go there's no coming back from that. And sometimes

127
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: there's a specific incident right there is you get in trouble, uh,

128
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: you know, arrested, something happens with a teammate where it's

129
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: just like you've crossed the line and there is no

130
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 1: coming back from that. And then there is the accumulation

131
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: of stuff. When I worked in radio, I worked for

132
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: this boss. Uh. I had a great boss that got

133
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 1: me into it, loved him, helped, you know, get my

134
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: career going. And then there was another guy who we

135
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: all couldn't stand, we didn't respect, and every day that

136
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: went by, I'm like, I don't know how much longer

137
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,679
Speaker 1: I can take. And it was like this guy, everything

138
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: about him, I don't know how I'm working in this environment.

139
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how I can listen to him. I

140
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: can't go on much longer. And I think once you

141
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: get internally that like I can't look at this. I

142
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: couldn't look at him without internally feeling angry, disgusted, wanting

143
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: to run away. It was just it was that feeling

144
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: that I think coaches get in front office people I

145
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: know get because I've seen it, and clearly Baker and listen,

146
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: I don't claim to know a bunch of people in Cleveland.

147
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: I've heard different stories. A lot of things were leaking out.

148
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: He was dead internally, just a Fanski and Andrew Berry dead.

149
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: Now Deshaun Watson made it possible for them to pivot

150
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: in terms of like they went and landed this guy,

151
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: which is kind of a disaster right now. We'll see

152
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: how it all plays out, but it was very black

153
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: and white once they got Deshaun Watson. A lot of

154
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: people kept saying, like, what if Deshaun gets to spend

155
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: it for a year, couldn't they just roll back with Baker?

156
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: There was no rolling back with Baker these guys, couldn't

157
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: they He was never going to be the quarterback for

158
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: Andrew Berry and Kevin Stefanski ever again. And he was

159
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: traded a couple of days ago, and as reports have

160
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: come out since they have been working on this trade

161
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: with the Carolina Panthers for over two months, and like anything,

162
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: when you're dealing with salary cap space, it's all about

163
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: money and compensation. But this has been in the works

164
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: for a long period of time, and I believe to

165
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 1: my core that if Deshaun Watson, let's say that situation

166
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: never had materialized. Let's say Deshaun Watson in a perfect

167
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: world loved Houston and was just still in Houston and

168
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: never chased seventeen million massage therapists and what that didn't

169
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: have all these lawsuits coming after him, and he was

170
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: just a quarterback of the Texans and that wasn't an option.

171
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 1: The Baker Mayfield still wouldn't be on the Cleveland Browns. Now.

172
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly who their quarterback would be. I'm

173
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 1: not saying they would have just like signed you, Kobe

174
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: b Sett and been cool with that, but they would

175
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: they would have moved on because I once in these

176
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: stories coming out, like Stefanski didn't want to coach this

177
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: guy anymore. And obviously when things get ugly, the warst

178
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: stories come out. Even though Baker's story was like he

179
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: didn't show up to an offensive install, So yeah, buddy,

180
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: he's the head coach. And then the story was like, yes,

181
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 1: Stefanski was talking with Myles Garrett. Yeah, he's a little

182
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: higher priority than Baker Mayfield's offensive install. That's why they

183
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: have other coaches too. But um, it's just one of

184
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: those situations where his time in Cleveland ended. The moment

185
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: the season ended. There was a picture that went viral

186
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 1: of Russell Wilson. You know who knows he could be

187
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: in Capri, he could be on the Sacramento River. I

188
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 1: got no clue. Looks like he's had a body of water,

189
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 1: shirt off, bathing suit, ciarra hanging out and to put

190
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: it mildly, and I think I can judge, because you

191
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: know my way, it can fluctuate. I'm about one now,

192
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: I've been as high as two ten. I'm someone who

193
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: loves to eat, but genetically I have to be careful because,

194
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: as any human will find out, and some people it

195
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: hits when they're fifteen. Some people it hits when they're fifty.

196
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: Your metabolism slows. And I was listening to this. I

197
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 1: I bought this finance book and it actually turned out

198
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: to be a pretty basic finance book, and I audio

199
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: booked it and I was just listening. I just listened

200
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: to it sometimes in the background. Some of the stuff

201
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 1: is pretty stupid, but they were on this chapter again

202
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: this is pretty basic, you know, way of thought, that

203
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: kind of debunking the thought that you can get rich

204
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: by saving, Like that's not how rich people get rich.

205
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: Rich people get rich by a ton of different income streams, investments,

206
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: r o I on investments. It's not just you make

207
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty thousand dollars in every year you

208
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: saved seventeen like that. That is just impossible. And part

209
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: of it was most people the average income, you spend

210
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: everything you get and in so it's not even feasible

211
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: to say. But they used the analogy of there was

212
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: this study of people that lost weight and for a

213
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: long period of time, and I know this happened to

214
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 1: me specifically, is eventually your body gets used to whatever

215
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: your workout is. And I'm someone who works out probably

216
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 1: at minimum six days a week, a lot of times

217
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: seven days a week. And there was a time when

218
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: I was like thirty two or thirty three, I started

219
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,079
Speaker 1: gaining weight even though I was eating the same foods

220
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: I've always eaten, and I was and I or eaten

221
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: and working out the same amount and doing the same

222
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: workouts that I've always done, and I probably put on

223
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: twenty pounds and I don't I didn't really notice it

224
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: until a couple of years later when I look back

225
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: at the pictures, Like, God, I was a fat ass.

226
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 1: And part of it is your metabolism slows down. And

227
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: part of this thing is like everyone tells you just

228
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: work out and you'll lose weight, that's not necessarily true.

229
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 1: Depending on your age a huge element of it. And

230
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: I can speak to this as someone who's thirty seven

231
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: years old. The diet and I heard this forever when

232
00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,599
Speaker 1: I was younger. The diet, the diet, the diet, and

233
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: I was called bs. I like eating ice cream, I

234
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: like eating sugars, I like eating carbs. You have to

235
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 1: change at a certain age. And Russell Wilson is a

236
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: good example. He's someone who's always been and Collins talked

237
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: about this. A lot of people have spent a lot

238
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 1: of money on his body. He's got therapist workout. People

239
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: takes it very, very seriously. Well, there was a video

240
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: at Summer League that Lebron was there and Russell Westbrook

241
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: was there. Ironically, is Lebron who's the most pro player

242
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: guy always treats his own teammates once they're dead to

243
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: him like a widget like Kevin Stefanski treated Baker. Wouldn't

244
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: even sit acknowledge or look at Russell Westbrook. Don't totally

245
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 1: blame him, even though the reason Westbrook is on the

246
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: Lakers was Lebron's idea. But regardless, all these guys are

247
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: eating snacks right. People in the front row ton of

248
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: NBA players hot dogs, popcorn or whatever. They showed Lebron.

249
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: Lebron had like a bag that clearly a chef made

250
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: him with like almonds and nuts, which they claimed to

251
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: be a very healthy snack. Because listen, I love to

252
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: snack as much as probably anyone listening. You know what

253
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: it got snacks is bag of Doritos, you know, some candy.

254
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: Even though the older you get, you realize those are

255
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: terrible snacks. So my point of all this is the

256
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,679
Speaker 1: way to lose weight. Just like the point of the

257
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 1: way to get rich more income streams than one and

258
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: invest you have to take risks to gain the rewards.

259
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: The way to lose weight the older you get is

260
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: to change your diet. You can work out the same

261
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: you've worked out, but at thirty five years old, working

262
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: out how you worked at twenty two won't have the

263
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: same impact on your body because your body changes. And

264
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: I saw this picture of Russell Wilson. He I mean honestly,

265
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: he looked like he was two fifty pounds. And I

266
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: know a lot of people, including the head of the volume,

267
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: very bullish on the Denver Broncos. And my one thing

268
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: would be is Russell Wilson, who I think is a

269
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: remarkable player. I've seen him live three or four times.

270
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 1: I think he's a first ballot Hall of Famer. Russell

271
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: Wilson and his prime and now primes. A lot of

272
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: guys Aaron Rodgers MVP at thirty seven years old, Tom

273
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: Brady kick and Ask in his forties pribmes have been

274
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 1: extended at the quarterback position, but Russell was unique because

275
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: unlike those guys now, obviously Rogers can move and still can.

276
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,199
Speaker 1: Tom kicked as from the pocket, and Russell can throw

277
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: a great deep ball from the pocket. But what made

278
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: him an extraordinary player was his ability to move, not

279
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: run like Lamar Jackson, but keep plays alive with his

280
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: feet a lot like Mahomes and Josh Allen do. Now

281
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: now Josh runs a little more. But behind the line

282
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, Deshaun Watson did this too. They weren't actually

283
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: running a lot. They were keeping plays alive outside the

284
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: tackle box. Then complete passes and keep the chains moving.

285
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: And last year Russell to me looked slow. And you

286
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: see this picture, you go, well, why would he looks? Well,

287
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: if you add some weight, you're not quite as fit.

288
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean his arms not still awesome, doesn't mean

289
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: he doesn't throw a good deep ball. But to me,

290
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: his weight, I think it's fair to say it's something

291
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on. And he's now forever he's

292
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: rand Seattle right him and Pete well now out when

293
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: I say that, he actually had some pushback, Like Pete

294
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: always got to, you know, kind of control the offense,

295
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: even though he's a defensive guy. Loved running the ball.

296
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: And Russell never truly always thought like he didn't get

297
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: to cook. And as someone said on social media, he

298
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: doesn't just get to cook in Denver, he gets to

299
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: eat as well. He can do whatever he wants. You

300
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: think Nathaniel Hackets telling him what to do. No, he's

301
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: dictating the terms. Now, I don't question Russell's focus. I

302
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: don't question Russell's, you know, ability to like take football

303
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: very seriously. I believe he does, but I do wonder

304
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: the diet whatever he's eating. He ain't six ft five,

305
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: He's not Eli Peyton or Philip Rivers. He's our most

306
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: normal human size eleven. Well, you put on weight much

307
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: easier when you're really small, and definitely show it. So

308
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: it's just if he is not above average, too awesome

309
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: for them. Denver would have a problem. And I'm tempted

310
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: because I'm picking the Chiefs to make the playoffs. The

311
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: Chargers have the best roster in the league on paper,

312
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: even though I don't love their coach. The roster's too

313
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: good to not make the playoffs. I think Denver and

314
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: the Raiders made the playoffs last year. They're gonna be

315
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: better now. I just think Denver everyone is just placing

316
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: them as a twelve team. They could if they get

317
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: awesome skinny Russell Wilson, or when I say skinny, he

318
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: was just thinner, more mobile Russell Wilson, they could be

319
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: really good. But if they get this kind of bigger

320
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: version of what we saw last year with an unknown coach,

321
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say there just might be

322
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: some unknown. It might be like, I'm not saying I'm

323
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: gonna pick up to not make the playoffs. Someone keeping

324
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: an eye on, though. It's something I'm keeping an eye on.

355
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 1: I texted a guy in the NFL, and I've defended

356
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: Rogers in the sense of I know he's weird, I

357
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: know he's different. I do think like Colin and other

358
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 1: people compare him to Kyrie Kyrie. We've seen Kyrie be

359
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: the alphon teams. His team suck. He's just he's not

360
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: a reliable human. Kyrie can't care. Kyrie gets injured all

361
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: the time. I've seen Rogers literally carry a franchise for

362
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: a decade. In these last three years, I mean, he's

363
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 1: gotten back to back m v ps. Now, I've said

364
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: over and over he underwhelmed last year in the playoffs.

365
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: You cannot lose to the Niner team that did not

366
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 1: score an offensive touchdown at home. That that that that

367
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 1: cannot happen. And I put that even more on him

368
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: than I do the head coach. But he has the tattoo.

369
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: The tattoo kind of goes viral, a little weird tattoo.

370
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: I take the guy in the NFL who's probably right

371
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,199
Speaker 1: around my age, mid thirties. He's this guy's accomplished, been

372
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: around for a long time. And I just said, listen,

373
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 1: I'm not a tattoo guy. Not because I was. When

374
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: I was in Scottsdale a couple of weeks ago, we

375
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: went to uh We went out with another couple and

376
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: the guy had been in the in the in the Navy.

377
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: He's great shape. He he had walked on. He played

378
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: a little college football and he was tatted up, and

379
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 1: the tatted they look good like tats on me would

380
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: not look good. I'm not yoked. I don't know the muscles.

381
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: I just never been a tat guy because I think

382
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: they would look terrible on me. Some people, I'm good,

383
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: that looks fantastic. Some people pull it off well, some

384
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: people do not. A lot of people, probably in the middle.

385
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers obviously great shape, he could pull off tattoos,

386
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: but how often do people? And the guy I was with,

387
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: who was in his late twenties, had probably been getting

388
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: tattoos for a decade, and I said to the exact

389
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: I said, what do you think the average ages for

390
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: people to get their first tattoo A guy, I'm just

391
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: speaking for guys, and we both agreed, probably be in

392
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: your late teens, early twenties. I would say it's a

393
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 1: little abnormal to get your first tattoo. Now, some people

394
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: do it right when they're forty five or fifty five

395
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,679
Speaker 1: with their kid, and they do one of those like

396
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: a date. Obviously, if something tragic happens, for sure, I'm

397
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: just talking about non tragedy, non family member, your first

398
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: just tattooed for yourself at thirty seven years old. Like

399
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 1: it's just a little weird. It's just a little weird. Now,

400
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: it takes nothing to way about his football, but like,

401
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: let's not get it twisted, Davante Adams, and I get

402
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: he wanted to come back West and have his family

403
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: to be able to go to games. Chose to leave

404
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: the best quarterback he'll ever play with, and he's going

405
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: Derek Carr is a good player. Derek car is a

406
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 1: thirty million dollar player who can be your starting quarterback

407
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 1: on a playoff team, far and away and above average

408
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 1: NFL quarterback, depending on the week, can be like the

409
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: eighth the tenth best quarterback in the league. But he

410
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: actively chose to get away from that guy. And I'm

411
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: not I'm not anti Rodgers hater, but I think it's

412
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: fair to say that that too a little weird. The

413
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: timing that just is this guy. I mean, earlier this year,

414
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 1: he went on a twelve day whatever in the wilderness

415
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: where he pooped, he pooped, and he did not eat.

416
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 1: And I'm listening, I'm as I'm recording this. All I've

417
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: had today is chocolate milk. Usually Monday, Tuesday or my

418
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: fast day. When I say fast, I don't eat breakfast

419
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: or lunch beside liquids and chocolate. Milk is kind of

420
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: my protein. It just helps me kind of keep my

421
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: oldbes down a little bit so and honestly, I don't

422
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: need to eat as much as I did eight ten

423
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: years ago, So I'm not anti like fasting a little bit.

424
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 1: But that twelve day excursion where you just pooped in

425
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: the wilderness and ate nothing but air a little weird.

426
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 1: You know. Brady's into some weird stuff. He into that.

427
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: So it's just is Rogers going through midlife. I mean,

428
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: he's only thirty seven to me midlife crisis usually, but

429
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: he's going through some things, you know. Now, in fairness,

430
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: it hasn't affected his football MVP back to back years

431
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: running last year was you thought he was going through

432
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 1: some things. One the m v P they were the

433
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: one seed. But man, what what a weird cat. But

434
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: not as weird as Kyrie because again, Rogers produces like

435
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: Rogers literally carries an NFL franchise to the playoffs every year,

436
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 1: and he's right on McCarthy at last. I don't really

437
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: know what to say on the Zack Wilson thing beside.

438
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, that's just I think you would

439
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: underestimate a guy. I know it sounds weird. Your mother's

440
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: best friend. Zach Wilson is now twenty three years old.

441
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: He's makes eight nine million dollars a years in the

442
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,679
Speaker 1: NFL quarterback. His options for females are probably just different

443
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 1: than the average guy. You know, he's got I would

444
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: imagine the options he has now, you could say, a

445
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,439
Speaker 1: little weird, uh not ideal, you know, in terms of

446
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: maybe his mom is that going to ruin the relationship?

447
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: But I also said that the one thing with being

448
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 1: a quarterback, everything is evaluated, everything is questioned. Jimmy g

449
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: took a single guy took a porn star out to

450
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 1: dinner years ago, and it was a major story for

451
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: like a week now. I think part of it was,

452
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: you know, the porn star wasn't exactly a ten. I mean,

453
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 1: she's probably closer to five than ten. Let's be real.

454
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: She also got a kid in the industry. It was

455
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: a little weird. It's like, Jimmy, why aren't you dating tense?

456
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: What what are we doing here? You're like the best

457
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: looking guy in America. It's like Brad Pitt and George

458
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: Clooney is George Clooney. I guess he's a little older now,

459
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 1: but you know what I mean, Liam Hemsworth, would he

460
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 1: be considered in that, Like Jimmy been around a lot

461
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: of women, every single one of them signs off on

462
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo immediately he's got he's got fans of the

463
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 1: opposite sex. And when he went out with that chicken,

464
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 1: like Jimmy, what are you doing? And then people try

465
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: to justify it, like you know, slid into d MS.

466
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: It was easy, doesn't quite realize scrutinies under and we

467
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: just kind of like whatever. And honestly, since like that,

468
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: no one knows who Jimmy Staton And I promise you

469
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: you're probably not going to bed alone. But I do

470
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 1: think the Zach Wilson thing. You come from Utah where

471
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,360
Speaker 1: you just could do some weird things, no one really

472
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: said anything. Now you're in the big Apple, this New York,

473
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people paying attention, good, bad, and indifferent.

474
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 1: They're on your ass. So it's just where does you

475
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: want to say it. It's gonna be a story that

476
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 1: he gets asked about. This is gonna be one of

477
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: those things. Man, it just welcome to the Big Apple.

478
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: Let's go, Let's go Middlecuff mail back at John Middlecoff's Instagram.

479
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 1: Fire in those d M and get your question answered

480
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 1: here in this little old podcast. Hey man, name is David,

481
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: and first off, big fan, die hard Steelers fan. Here

482
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 1: we go. My question relates to general life. You often

483
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: talk about business for your analogies. I recently graduated with

484
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: my doctorate in clinical in school psychology. What are your

485
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 1: thoughts on psychology? Keep it up, Kenny Pickett? Uh is proof?

486
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: Kenny Prickett is gonna prove you're wrong. I've been to

487
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: a psychologist, I guess psychiatrist, psychologist. I would say psychology.

488
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 1: I'm a big believer, Like I think, the older you

489
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: get things that you would have made fun of in

490
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: your twenties. The way to think about life, the way

491
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: to think about how you've become something, the way to

492
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: think about why you are what you are, uh, the

493
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: way people can help you and influence you and give

494
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: you a different perspective as you mature. If you mature,

495
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: because not everyone does, you become more open to that stuff.

496
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 1: So I would say the last five years of my

497
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: life I have become much more open two things, Uh

498
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,640
Speaker 1: that a psychologist. Psychiatrists are those the same things. Uh,

499
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 1: any human being. Like hell, I just got a probably

500
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: like three months ago. I just went to get a

501
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 1: physical because I was like, you know, I've been had

502
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 1: a physical in three years. I'm not twenty six. You know,

503
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: I'm not fifty five, but you know thirty seven. Just

504
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: I'm healthy, but you know, just good. My doctor, who's

505
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: I would call close to a family friend, uh, works

506
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: at Satura Davis. I mean, this guy works at Satura

507
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,640
Speaker 1: Davis UC Davis, big time hospital, just kind of gave

508
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 1: me a couple of Like I threw out a couple

509
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: of things, and he kind of gave me. I would say,

510
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 1: mentorship from just a guy that has a different perspective.

511
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: And I would five years ago it would have gone

512
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: out one year and out the other. This time I

513
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 1: kind of listened. I was like, yeah, it brings up

514
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: a pretty good point on that specifically. Uh So, yeah,

515
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: I mean I would say that I have become much

516
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: more opened on the influence and help people can have.

517
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: Now it depends. I mean, not everyone is gonna be

518
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: impacted or even want it, but I got a lot

519
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:30,120
Speaker 1: of respect for anyone. The problem is I could never academia.

520
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: You must have been able to study pretty well. Now. Honestly,

521
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: if you're interested in what you're studying, it's much easier, right,

522
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: Like if you are studying something that you're interested in,

523
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 1: it's no different. Like why can I talk about sports

524
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 1: for a living? Well because I read a lot about it.

525
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 1: And when you read a lot about something, you just

526
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 1: know a lot about it. So I don't know, I

527
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: would imagine you're very interested in people, uh, you know,

528
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,439
Speaker 1: whether it be socially cognitively, what would ever ultimately specifically

529
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 1: that you're gonna, you know, do in your field. But yeah,

530
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: I mean I think you've helped a lot of people,

531
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: not you specifically, but just historically, and some people don't

532
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: want to be helped, you know, Hey, John, that was

533
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: deep question for the mail back. Do the Eagles have

534
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,959
Speaker 1: a better chance to win the NFC East than Dallas?

535
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: Eagles had an amazing offseason in draft, while the Cowboys

536
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,719
Speaker 1: lost key pieces and replaced them with nothing. I think

537
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: the Cowboys got worse this offseason. I don't think it's debatable.

538
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: They lost a pass rusher, they lost to Marii Cooper

539
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: who listened. Has some flaws, but he's still a very

540
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 1: productive player. Uh. I mean, Zeke is just a year older,

541
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: not as good, and I think we saw some flaws

542
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: in the quarterback. Good player, incredible fourth round pick, great guy.

543
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: You've never heard one person like Baker Mayfield. Moments ship

544
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: got sideways, half the team turned on him. Cowboys have

545
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 1: been up down. No one's ever that I remember said

546
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: a terse word about Dakota Prescott, and I that that

547
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: means a lot to me at quarterback. That's why I've

548
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: turned Now. Obviously he's become a good player, but I

549
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: I pivoted fast on Lamar because once you're like damn,

550
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: people love Lamar. I like Lamar if you're a great

551
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: guy and you're trustworthy person. That's why I'm out on

552
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. Like bro, I can't trust you. You can't

553
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 1: just get a normal date. You can't just slide it

554
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: into someone d MS. You gotta go after the massage therapist.

555
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: I never looking at you the same, not guilty or innocent.

556
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: It's just about like, I think you're kind of a weirdo.

557
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 1: Uh So, but here's a problem with Dack. Ultimately, it

558
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: was a fourth round pick kind of for a reason.

559
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: Now he got the d y, he might have gotten

560
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: the third round. He doesn't have an e lead arm.

561
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: He does not have an e lead arm. So if

562
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: he's a little off in a little behind, he throws

563
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: a pickable ball. It's harder when Mahomes or Josh Allen

564
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: throw a ninet on our rope. That's off. There's a

565
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: reason the cornerback plays cornerback usually and not wide receiver.

566
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: Doesn't have great hands. Some guys do, but most corners

567
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: you would say have average hands at best. Well, Das

568
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 1: ball a little like Alex Smith is pretty catchable. So yeah,

569
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: I mean, and Mike McCarthy is not a good football coach.

570
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: I just don't think he's very good given the standard

571
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: in which he's talked about. Like I'm not saying he's

572
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: Freddy Kitchens or Pat Schrumer or something, but a guy

573
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: that makes the playoffs a lot for a guy with

574
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: his resume, you would say his resume looks a little

575
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 1: different than he actually is as a coach. And obviously

576
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: the Packers and I was like, he benefit a lot

577
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: from number twelve. But yeah, I mean, I the only

578
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: thing that gives me a reservation on the Eagles is

579
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: the quarterback because Kenny throw the ball better. They want

580
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: a lot of games last year because the division down

581
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 1: the stretch, beat up on Washington, beat up in New York,

582
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 1: and I think got the Cowboys when the Cowboys mailed

583
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: in that game. If Jalen can get better as a passer,

584
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: then I would feel very good about that bet. But

585
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: I could see both teams being right around ten games.

586
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: When you were a scout, how much importance did you

587
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: put an emotional like you character verse skill? What were

588
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: some character traits you look for and say quarterbacks, wide receivers, linebackers,

589
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: edge rushers. Well, I think when I worked in pro personnel,

590
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 1: meaning evaluating the NFL, you just evaluated the player, right

591
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: Like I'm just going to use an example. Who was

592
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: a big free agent that signed this year, Christian Kirk.

593
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 1: He's not I mean, you know what I mean. He

594
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: got a lot of money. If I was teams that

595
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: needed a wide receiver and I was looking into Christian Kirk,

596
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: we evaluated him coming out of college. I think he

597
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,239
Speaker 1: went tod Goo, texanm So when he was coming out

598
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: of college, we have huge write ups on his personality,

599
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: on his character. We do a lot of work. Part

600
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: of the reason when people are like, well, who do

601
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 1: you scout during the draft? You scout everyone because eventually

602
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: the majority of players, like, the majority of players aren't

603
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, they're gonna play fourteen years on one team

604
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: or Peyton Manning, and even Peyton Manning became a free agent,

605
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: but most players become available change teams relatively quickly. It's

606
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 1: why you do your work so you have the character

607
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: stuff and things change. I mean, once the guy get

608
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: in the league, you can call coaches and you're doing

609
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: extra work, but you're evaluating the player. Will this guy

610
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: fit our scheme? Do we need this guy? Does his talent?

611
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 1: When you're in college and I only truly did college

612
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: for one year, but all three years, the thing you

613
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:40,239
Speaker 1: constantly talk about with your college scouts, it's probably when

614
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 1: I'm just on the phone as a fellow scout, is

615
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: like about the guy as much as the player. And

616
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 1: then the meetings, you spend so much time on the person,

617
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: on the character, on the i Q and obviously a quarterback.

618
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: To me, it's everything. It's it's just it's part of

619
00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: the package. Ed Dresser, I'm sorry, it doesn't matter as much.

620
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: There are only so many guys that are six four,

621
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 1: two hundred fifty pounds that can bend the edge or

622
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: three pounds that can hold the double team right. The

623
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: same thing with wide receivers, Like we we've had a

624
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: lot of questionable characters that can score touchdowns. So I

625
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: would say, like offensive lineman, obviously middle linebackers, you have

626
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: to have the ability to like understand football. And there's

627
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: also a difference of and this is one thing I

628
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: learned in the NFL is how well are you do

629
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: in school? Like let's say I'm evaluating a U c.

630
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 1: L A linebacker and it's like, you know, he's barely

631
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 1: eligible every year. Well how's his football knowledge? Well, he's great.

632
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: I tell the assistant coach Goes. I give him a

633
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: new I give him a new install I give him

634
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: a new UH call. I give him a new scheme,

635
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: I give him a new idea. Picks it up in

636
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: in one rep football genius. It took Jason Kidd five

637
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 1: times to hit the minimums a t score to get

638
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: into cal Berkeley I think at the time was like

639
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: eight hundred, because the basketball team gets you in. He's

640
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 1: academically with nothing. He's one of the smartest basketball players ever. Ultimately,

641
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 1: we're in the business of playing football and winning on

642
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: the football field. So you have to like how you

643
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: learn football, like how Ray Lewis didn't in class. Who

644
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 1: cares dudes a football savant, Luke Keickley and some of

645
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 1: these guys might have done well in school, but all

646
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 1: that matters is your football. Like you now, where you

647
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: can get away with it is like you'll talk to

648
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: a coach and be like, you know this guy's and

649
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 1: when they say dumb, like football dumb, Like it's hard

650
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 1: for him to get stuff. He forgets stuff, but he's

651
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: so talented that we make room for him. And that's

652
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 1: an area where if you're not good enough. It's why

653
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: these guys right now once training camp starts. If I'm

654
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 1: a fringe guy right I'm a six seventh round pick,

655
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: I'm an undrafted free agent. I'm a practice squad type guy.

656
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,800
Speaker 1: I don't have the margin for error to not understand

657
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: everything that's going on. I have to know. So if

658
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: I am not the smartest guy, like some people just

659
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 1: pick things right away, other like me personally, if it's

660
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: something that doesn't come naturally to me, I probably thre

661
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: read three or four times and then once I get it,

662
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 1: I feel comfortable with it, so you better make sure

663
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 1: you know it. So I think quarterback has just held

664
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,439
Speaker 1: in a completely different standard. And then probably places like middle,

665
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: linebacker and safety, your intelligence matters most position and center.

666
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: But like right tackle, if you can block the edge

667
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 1: like you're good. You know, if wide receiver, if you

668
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: can catch and get open, you're good. You know. Why

669
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: doesn't live go after other international sports by the best

670
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: soccer footballers and create a new Champions League. Money initiates

671
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 1: all changes, right? Or how about start the World Cup

672
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: equivalent that pays the players to play for charities and

673
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 1: then they have a draft six teams hunter best players

674
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: pay them a funk ton Well Live, which is owned

675
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: by the side the Sidis. Don't they own Man City?

676
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: The Sidis aren't they deep into F one, They already

677
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: own huge parts of that. The only way the Saudis

678
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: could get their hands on golf was doing this because

679
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 1: the PGA Tour was not going to let them in,

680
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 1: so this was their only in. And then Greg Norman

681
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 1: had the vandetta. So the reason, like, why would they

682
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: do in soccer? They just literally buy teams. They have

683
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 1: ownership steak in the teams, you know the F one.

684
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 1: I'm not a FF one guy. I just know they're connected.

685
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 1: Do they own a team or do they finance some

686
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 1: of the races that I know? They a race in

687
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia. I think it's more they just wanted in

688
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 1: the sport. They would have gladly given the PGA Tour

689
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 1: like a billion dollars to be partners. The PGA Tour

690
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: never would have done that like F one and obviously soccer,

691
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 1: obvious soccer is different. But they wanted in and this

692
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,319
Speaker 1: was their only avenue. So I think that's why they

693
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 1: don't do it. Big fan from Vancouver, So I was

694
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: on some vitamins which are now legal here. Is that

695
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: what all the kids are saying? I see Pat mc

696
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 1: if he keeps saying he's taking vitamins, which means he's

697
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 1: taken some weed. Stay off the weed. Um, why are

698
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 1: we calling it vitamins? Why don't we just call it

699
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: marijuana weed? This isn't it's not crack. I mean, it's legal.

700
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: I was thinking about trey Land situation and how it

701
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: changed the league. Isn't it funny you get on those

702
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 1: vitamins or the weed and you just sometimes you gravitate

703
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:22,279
Speaker 1: towards like what Tiger Woods win seven tournaments this year?

704
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 1: Could Patrick Mahomes play in night? You know who would win?

705
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: One on one? Steph Curier Michael Jordan, Like it's crazy

706
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: where your head goes. You could argue, don't even need

707
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 1: the vitamins for that to happen. They invested so much

708
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: capital and getting to him, he's unproved. In the past

709
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 1: few seasons, many league quarterbacks have switched teams. Do you

710
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 1: think that after this situation the teams would rather trade

711
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: for approven NFL quarterback or prey on the talent of

712
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: a top court, top college quarterback. It's totally killing the

713
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 1: forty nine or Super Bowl window considering the proven quarterbacks

714
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: they could have gotten. I think if you are sitting

715
00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: there with cocktails, several Kyle Shanahan would tell you if

716
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 1: he could have a redo, if he could have a

717
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: do over, he knew what they knew now as of today.

718
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 1: What they would have done is they would have not

719
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,439
Speaker 1: traded for a quarterback. They would have played last season

720
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 1: one Jimmy Garoppolo. They would have drafted Mike Michael Parsons

721
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 1: or something at twelve, and they would have traded this

722
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 1: offseason for Matt Ryan. That's what they would have done,

723
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 1: But at the time you don't know that. And for

724
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: the most part, there have been a lot of quarterback

725
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,360
Speaker 1: movement the last couple of years. That's not normal and

726
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,959
Speaker 1: most people like the only really sweet one in theory

727
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:42,919
Speaker 1: he got traded was Russell Wilson. Whence Matt Ryan. It's

728
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: not like mahomes Herbert Lamar. These guys are on the move.

729
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: So really, if you draft the right quarterback, you strike

730
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: oil because if he just becomes a top twelve guy,

731
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: you have him under contract, he's your team and you

732
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: get to indocrinate him on board him as the corporate

733
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 1: people of the world say, into what you do now

734
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: in two years, Trey Lance may be the best thing

735
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: that ever happened to Kyle. And part of drafting a

736
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:15,280
Speaker 1: guy really high, there's an I always there's inherent risking everything.

737
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 1: There's inherent more risk driving down the freeway, you know,

738
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: then think about like I might I might go to

739
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: Chipole to night for dinner. Let's say you go to Chipole.

740
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,280
Speaker 1: It's happened to me one time, and I love Chipotle.

741
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: I got really sick. It's pretty crazy how much a

742
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 1: society we take for granted everywhere you go to eat,

743
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: you're just gonna eat, and you're gonna be completely fine,

744
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,839
Speaker 1: never gonna get sick. The percentage of people to get

745
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 1: food poisoning when they eat out is probably minuscule. You

746
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:42,839
Speaker 1: we take it for granted. We don't even think about

747
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: it until the one time it happens and you're on

748
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 1: your deathbed and you're like, is this what death feels like?

749
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: Because honestly, the last time I got food poisoning, I

750
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: remember curled up in a ball, thinking I've never been

751
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: this close to death. That's I swore to God, I vividly.

752
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: I don't quite remember the feeling in my body. I

753
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: just remember being so bad that cross my head like

754
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 1: is this what kind of dying feels like? And it

755
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: was the worst forty hours of my life. I've never

756
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 1: been sicker than that food poisoning. And I'm pretty sure

757
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,359
Speaker 1: it was from Chipotle. Now, granted, I've probably been there

758
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 1: fifty times since they've bounced back, and the price points

759
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 1: are good, and you know, I can eat quote unquote

760
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 1: send my healthy dinner, but you're taking risks, and I

761
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 1: think it was worth the risk there was. He's a huge,

762
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 1: unknown small school guy didn't get to play as basically

763
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: his Red Shirts sophomore season because the season was canceled

764
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 1: because of his division. Yeah, I mean, but you don't

765
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: know any of that. It's so much easier to be like, well,

766
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: if I knew my financial adviser was gonna rob me,

767
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 1: I never would have let him manage my money. If

768
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: I knew she was gonna divorce me because she didn't

769
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,240
Speaker 1: like the way I looked when I was forty seven,

770
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,320
Speaker 1: I never would have married her in the first place.

771
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 1: It's so easy to look back once you know the outcome,

772
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:03,720
Speaker 1: but that's not the way life works. You have no clue.

773
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 1: It's the best part about life. It's what makes success

774
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: is so much fun. Like God, I wanted to be here,

775
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: but I never knew how it was gonna feel getting here.

776
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,800
Speaker 1: And honestly, what makes failing failing is never fun. But

777
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: once you get removed from failing, you look back and

778
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 1: the experience of everything. But the only way to get

779
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: somewhere is through going through it. And Mahomes like, if

780
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 1: everyone knew Patrick Malomes gonna be Patrick Mahomes would have

781
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: got number one. Overall, we're gonna number one. Overalls would

782
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 1: have taken the Bears would have taken him. He never

783
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: would have sniffed to the Chiefs. But you don't know that.

784
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: So Trey Lance, A lot of people are asking me, like,

785
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: what do you think. I have no clue. Honestly, I've

786
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 1: been to practices. I don't think you can glean that

787
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: much of practice like I can go to practice and

788
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: be like, George Kittle looks good because I know how

789
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: George looks when he's good in games. So when I

790
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,359
Speaker 1: see him out there running around, like god, he looks

791
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 1: sweet Trent williams Uster, Fred Warner. But when the rookie

792
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: like this, this guy getta be sweet like I liked

793
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 1: him in college. Who knows. Now we've seen a little

794
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 1: of Trey. But it's so much harder with the quarterbacks

795
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: because I can't get sacked in practice incomplete. It's hard

796
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 1: to even tell. So we just only time is gonna tell.

797
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 1: I got a question. I'm feeding first and three and out,

798
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 1: where's it at? It's back. The USFL was a very

799
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:27,480
Speaker 1: hard watch for me this year, but I am a

800
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 1: much but I'm such a lover of football that I'm

801
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,359
Speaker 1: not willing to give up on it. Don't you think

802
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: it get a lot more engagement If the teams were

803
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,839
Speaker 1: linked with a pro team like baseball, for instance, send

804
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: practice squad players and players that get cut over there,

805
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 1: then at least they'd be interested and there'd be UH

806
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 1: some team's roster construction. In theory, this makes a lot

807
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: of sense, and I agree with you. But think about this.

808
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 1: If you and I owned UH, we were sports agents,

809
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: and let's say we had ten guys in the NFL

810
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 1: unpracticed squads last year, Guys that were drafted fifth, six,

811
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:08,399
Speaker 1: seventh round picks that were on practice squads, you would say,

812
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 1: going into their second year, you would go, hey, man,

813
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,320
Speaker 1: stay focused, make sure you know the playbook, stay in

814
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 1: best shape. You could make the team. You're one injury

815
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,800
Speaker 1: away from being the starter. Well, you could improve in

816
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 1: the USFL, for sure, but you could also get injured.

817
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: What if you break your leg and then you're not

818
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 1: available for that? You know, I'm pretty sure the USFL

819
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:34,399
Speaker 1: pays like fifty grand NFL minimum salaries. Like, So, if

820
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: I was an agent when I want that, let's say

821
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 1: at a backup quarterback that I drafted, Let's just pick

822
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: a guy Kyle Trask and I don't know if the

823
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: Bucks like him or not. The third round and I'm like,

824
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know if he's ever gonna be

825
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 1: the starter, but he could be our backup for a

826
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: long time. And let's say Tampa was affiliated with the

827
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 1: Tampa whatever their team was in the USFL. I don't

828
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 1: even know if Tampa has a team in the USFL. Like,

829
00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 1: let's send Kyle Trash down there. What if he to

830
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: here's a c L what if he shatters his hand

831
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: on a helmet? Why would you want to do that?

832
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: You're the one. You've already paid them, You've invested in them.

833
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 1: So it's I hear you. I think it would be

834
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 1: awesome if you're like, God, all these guys that were

835
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 1: just drafted that are on teams were in the league

836
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 1: with you. I don't know if it makes sense. You know,

837
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 1: for the agent, for the player, you could probably convince

838
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 1: some coaches and gms it would be worth the risk.

839
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: You're like, whatever, We'll just find the next guy. But

840
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 1: I think from the players side, if you are on

841
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,399
Speaker 1: a team, it doesn't make sense. If you're a guy

842
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 1: without a job, no doubt about it. You play in

843
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: the league. I think it's tough. You know, in basketball,

844
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,240
Speaker 1: you're just so less likely to get hurt, So playing

845
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:40,880
Speaker 1: in the G league sending guys up and down no

846
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: big deal. In football, most guys get hurting games. And again,

847
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 1: I probably watched a total of thirty forty snaps all

848
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: season at their championship game. Was slopping around channels. Was

849
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 1: on the other night. But hopefully everyone's uh having a

850
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 1: good day. Trying to give you a little content. We

851
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 1: gotta keep it content for on audios. May the piece

852
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 1: be with you, godspeed to see up the volume
