I'm watching the thirty for thirty 94 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: on Lance Armstrong. It's actually two parts, and we've had 95 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 2: Lance on the show. You can't help but dislike him 96 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 2: when you hear him in this documentary. But there's also 97 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: I have admiration for him because it's a dirty sport. 98 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 2: It's been a dirty sport well before Lance Armstrong. But 99 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 2: he saw it and then he said, I want what 100 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: the Italian team is taking. And then he found out 101 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: that it was something called EPO and he called it bleeping' 102 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: rocket fuel. He was taking what you were taking. And 103 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 2: then he became the greatest cyclist of all time. It's 104 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: almost like Barry Bond said, oh wait, I'm not the 105 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: best player. It's Maguire and Sosa. How about I take 106 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 2: what they're taking. I'm going to tell you, I'm going 107 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 2: to show you what I can do. I'm going to 108 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 2: put up numbers that are going to blow everybody away, 109 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: and that's exactly what he did. Roger Clemens may have 110 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 2: looked and said, you know, hey, these guys are using 111 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: I'm going to use. 112 00:05:58,920 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 6: Now. 113 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: Look what I'm going to do when I go to Toronto. 114 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 2: And Lance did that with the tour, defronts the problem 115 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 2: I always have with Lance. Now, once again, if you 116 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: said somebody's going to raise one hundred million dollars for 117 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: cancer research, Okay, what's the downside, Well, he cheated and 118 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: he was very vindictive to those who called him out 119 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: for cheating. And that's what happened. On one hand, you 120 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: have Livestrong that was unbelievable. But then you have the 121 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 2: other side of this and if Lance had but Lance 122 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: couldn't do this. He couldn't approach it any other way 123 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 2: than how he approached everything. 124 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 3: He was aggressive, bleep. 125 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: You, I'm going to do it my way, and if 126 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 2: you get my way, I'm coming after you. And that's 127 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 2: what he did. And he's suing people. That's the that's 128 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 2: the harsh part all of it. Of all of it, 129 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: you can't like him, But there's part of me that 130 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 2: he came back from testicular cancer just that alone, to 131 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: ride in the tort front and then all of a sudden, 132 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: you realize, if you're going to be one of his teammates, 133 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: you got to use, and then everybody else who's using. 134 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 2: I think they had a race. I don't know when 135 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 2: it was, but they were trying to find somebody who 136 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 2: actually passed a drug test and they went down to 137 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 2: the twenty fourth place finisher and declared that person the winner. 138 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 2: But Lance, fascinating guy. Didn't read the room very well, 139 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 2: but fascinating guy. And you know, I'd seen the documentary. 140 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 2: I don't know, I just felt like I wanted to 141 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: revisit it, you know when I saw a commercial for 142 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 2: a promo for the Twitter France. Because we don't care 143 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: about it like the way we did. It's like America's Cup. 144 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 2: The only time we cared about it is when we 145 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 2: lost it, Like we truly were like we got to 146 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 2: get that cup back. All these billionaires in there, you know, 147 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 2: their yachts and we got to get that back. Didn't 148 00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: mean anything for us, like our pride was it those 149 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 2: Aueses took our America's Cup. 150 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, Pauline, and I remember at the time it was 151 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,239 Speaker 7: the French media that was attacking Lance Armstrong the most, 152 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 7: which rallied American sports fans against the French media, not 153 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 7: against Lance Armstrong. I remember a day we were doing 154 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 7: the show, and I'm pretty sure as Floyd Landis, the 155 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 7: former cyclist accused Lance of something, we didn't even have 156 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 7: a chance to have Fritzy call for Lance. Lance's representative 157 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 7: called us and said he'd like to come on your 158 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 7: show to talk about this. We didn't even have to 159 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 7: book him. He booked himself on our show to fight 160 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 7: this accusation, which was. 161 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 6: True, by the way. 162 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, Floyd was the whistleblower here, the former Tor Defronce winner. 163 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, it's kind of fascinating how we all of 164 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 2: a sudden became a fan of the Tour Defronce, like 165 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 2: we cared about it. But it's just because of the 166 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 2: nationalism that went on with that with Lance, Yes. 167 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 4: And the way Lance handled all of those accusations became 168 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 4: the blueprint of how everyone should handle being accused of 169 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 4: steroid ass Look at see Lance, That's what an innocent 170 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 4: guy does. He sues everybody. He goes after them for 171 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 4: you know, tarnishing his name. That's how you handle it. 172 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 4: If you're really innocent, you go sue. Oh, yeah, he 173 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 4: attacked his attackers. Yeah, didn't end up well, but but 174 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 4: you know that he's still Lance Armstrong. It's not one 175 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 4: of those like they took away everything and he got 176 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 4: sued by the government. He had to pay the He 177 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 4: was supposed to pay them one hundred million dollars. They 178 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 4: settled for five million dollars. So it was like serious stuff. 179 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 2: Here, But it could have been a remarkable story even 180 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: if he didn't win. The tour defronts, you know, coming 181 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 2: back testicular cancer. But he talks about started using when 182 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 2: he was like twenty years of age, and the sport 183 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: has been dirty. They talk about cyclists who did amphetamines, 184 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 2: some did cocaine. This is back in the you know, 185 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 2: like I don't know, fifties, so it's been dirty for decades. 186 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: But I like that the French got upset because Lance 187 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 2: was dominating. And it's okay if one of their cyclists cheats, 188 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 2: but Lance can't cheat and then call us names. We're 189 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: not gonna we're gonna stay. We got principles here. But 190 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 2: Lance fascinating. But the fact that he talked about this 191 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 2: EPO and he said it was like rocket fuel, and 192 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 2: then all of a sudden he's doing what other teams 193 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,359 Speaker 2: are doing, and then he dominated. But it is pretty fascinating. 194 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 2: All right, poll question Seaton for the final hour, for 195 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: this hour and clean up from last hour. 196 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 4: Let's say we've got up there. Should Florida be nervous? 197 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 4: I'll let you decide what exactly that means. Well, the Panthers, Oh, well, 198 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 4: we're just going to leave it as Florida. Should Florida 199 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 4: be nervous? 200 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 3: Yeah? Dan Lebtard lives there. Yes, you should have some 201 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 3: studios or no, not yet. 202 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 4: Right now absolutely has seventy two percent of the vote. 203 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 4: And if you could go back in history and watch 204 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 4: one player, Babe Babe Wooth, Babe Ruth, Willie Mays, Jesse Owens, 205 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 4: Wilt Chamberlain, right, and now forty four percent of the vote, 206 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 4: does Babe Ruth? 207 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 3: Okay, I think that's the wrong decision. 208 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 8: Yeah. 209 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: I would have taken Jesse Owens at the nineteen thirty 210 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 2: six Olympics. He's currently in last Okay, Well, then people 211 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 2: aren't very smart. Yeah smart, I can car. 212 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 5: I know he's not on the board, but I'm going 213 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 5: to take Aba Julie Irving. Okay, from what I've heard, 214 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 5: and he seems like a mythical figure when he was 215 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 5: in the ABA. 216 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, somebody sent me an outline of Doctor Jay's hand. 217 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 3: You want to get humbled. I put my hand up 218 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 3: next to his. 219 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 2: I could have put my other hand up there, and 220 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 2: his hand was still like biggest hands. Him and Connie Hawkins. 221 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 2: Connie Hawkins played for the Phoenix Suns. I got seem 222 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,599 Speaker 2: in person, and Connie wasn't anywhere near what Doctor j was. 223 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 2: He was a playground legend. The book Foul was about 224 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 2: Connie Hawkins and I just seeing Doc's hands, and I 225 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: was there in Philadelphia after they had lost a playoff 226 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 2: game and their season was over. He's in the locker room. 227 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 2: He's got ice on his knees. When he's got his 228 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 2: hands on his knees, and it looked like they went 229 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: all the way down to his ankle like his shins. 230 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 2: He had et hands. You know you see et. That's 231 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 2: Doc had hands that were just huge, like crazy. And 232 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: when people say, oh, Shack's hands are too big, Shack's 233 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: hands aren't bigger than Doctor Jay's. Like he can't shoot 234 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 2: free throws, his hands are too big. No, he doesn't 235 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 2: have any touch, He has no form Doctor J had 236 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 2: a beautiful shot, great rotation, So it's not his hands 237 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: are too big. 238 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, Pong, it's. 239 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 7: Really we talked about this before the TV Ero and 240 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 7: Bird and Magic took over. But if Doctor J's four 241 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 7: or five years younger and his prime is in eighty 242 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 7: one through eighty six instead of the late seventies or 243 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 7: you know, Kareem attlle Jabbar, I think he's almost underrated, 244 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 7: because yes, most people, even like me, I started watching 245 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 7: Kareem when I was well, when magical. 246 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 2: I think Kareem is the greatest player of all time. Okay, 247 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: if I look at the resume, they changed rules because 248 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 2: of him, couldn't play his freshman year. They outlawed the dunk. 249 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 2: Although like they outlawed the dunk I think with Wilt 250 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 2: in college. But with Kareem, what he did, he won 251 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: three titles because he was eligible for three Most Outstanding Player. 252 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: What he did in the NBA, like single handedly was awesome. 253 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 2: It just felt like Oscar came over to the Bucks. 254 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 2: Kareem needed Oscar, so Oscar, that's Oscar's title, not Kareem's. 255 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 3: That's Oscars. 256 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 2: And then of course he had magic, and magic you know, 257 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: was obviously great with Kareem and vice versa, but then 258 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 2: it became magic titles, not Kareem's. I don't know if 259 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 2: Kareem ever had his own titles unless you go back 260 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 2: to UCLA, But yeah, what he did and nobody's been able. 261 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 2: You talk about signature moves, nobody has mastered that. Nobody's 262 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 2: even come close to a skyhook. Again, it's because that's his. 263 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 2: Nobody else can emulate it. But it is gorgeous. 264 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 5: Yes, mar would the UCLA freshman team have won the 265 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 5: national title? 266 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 6: Yes? 267 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 3: Yes, because the freshman team beat the varsity team. 268 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 6: Did they really? Yes? 269 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 2: They played against each other and they beat the team 270 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 2: that won the national title. So the second best team 271 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 2: in America that year was the freshman team at UCLA. 272 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: Head coach John Caliperi, now at Arkansas joined just in 273 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: a little more than an hour from now, Mike Florio 274 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 2: will join us coming up here momentarily. 275 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: The Comeback Player of the Year award.

The Comeback Player of 317 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: the Year award has been sort of redefined or re emphasized. 318 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 2: Now we will never have to worry about a pesky 319 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 2: story like Joe Flacco with what he did, because he 320 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: didn't come back from anything other than not being any good. 321 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 2: So what is the NFL doing? I know they wanted 322 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: Damorrow Hamlin to be the Comeback Player of the Year 323 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 2: because he came back from dead, but why are they 324 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 2: doing this? 325 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 11: Well, this has been lingering for a while, and I 326 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 11: actually started when Gino Smith won it Dan in the 327 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 11: twenty twenty two season coming back from sucking. And that 328 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 11: goes back to Ryan Tannehill. Frankly in twenty nineteen after 329 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 11: his time with the Dolphins, he wasn't very good, he 330 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 11: gets traded, he replaces Marcus Mariota, he plays well, he's 331 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 11: the comeback Player of the Year. There's never been any guidance 332 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 11: for the voters on what comeback Player of the Year means, 333 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 11: so they've been trying to make it more clear that 334 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 11: you're coming back from something that caused you to miss 335 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 11: time the prior season. Now it's still not hard and 336 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 11: fast ruled. It's going to be determined on a case 337 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 11: by case basis. I've come up with various questions that 338 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 11: I've been peppering the AP with, like what about this, 339 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 11: what about this, how about this, how about that? And 340 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 11: it Again, they're not going to reject ballots. For example, 341 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 11: if Aaron Rodgers did come back last year during the 342 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 11: season after tearing the achilles week one, comes back and 343 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 11: plays and vaults the Jets to the playoffs. Under this 344 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 11: new characterization, he wouldn't be eligible because it speaks to 345 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 11: injury or illness the prior year. So there's still some 346 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 11: stuff that's got to get worked out. The goal is 347 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 11: come back from injury illness, and they need to have 348 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 11: and they've tried to do this a separate category of 349 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 11: most improved Player. Then you have an award coming back 350 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,479 Speaker 11: from sucking and coming back from injury illness. You've got 351 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 11: two separate awards. Why not just do that. 352 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers can't be Comeback Player of the Year this 353 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 2: upcoming season if he's. 354 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 11: Great No this year, yes, this year, yes, because he 355 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 11: missed almost all of last year. My point is if 356 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 11: he'd come back last year and played the last five games, 357 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 11: which is all Joe Flacco did, and had taken the 358 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 11: Jets to the playoffs after suffering the torn achilles ten 359 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 11: and I remember there was that talk, is he coming back? 360 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 11: Is he coming back? Maybe I'm coming back. If he 361 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,479 Speaker 11: had under this standard, he wouldn't have been eligible. But 362 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 11: I'm told they're going to look at it all case 363 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 11: by case, so we'll see how it plays out. We'll 364 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 11: see how it goes. 365 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 3: I like this is a big deal, you know, well. 366 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 11: I think it is. For the people who bet on it. 367 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 11: It definitely is. And there are some people, you know, 368 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 11: Jake Croucher with NBC. Jake Croucher had a lot of 369 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 11: money on Demor Hamlin winning Comeback Player of the Year, 370 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 11: and when that didn't happen, there's a lot of people 371 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 11: that bought those tickets when it looked like a no brainer. 372 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 3: It was the biggest sure thing exactly. He came back 373 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 3: from the dead, mic, I know. 374 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 11: But the problem is he played like seventeen snaps on 375 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 11: defense all year, and I think that's what kept him. 376 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 3: Way, Mike. 377 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 2: He came back from dead to play seventeen snaps. 378 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 11: Yes, maybe he should have won it in twenty twenty 379 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 11: three or twenty two, the year that it actually happened. 380 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 11: I don't know. I mean, because he lived it was 381 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 11: week seventeen. He lived after that, you could argue he 382 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 11: should have been the Comeback Player of the Year. 383 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 3: That why don't you name the award after him? 384 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 6: Mike. 385 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,239 Speaker 11: I think even though his case didn't cause this I 386 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 11: think it accelerated it and cemented it and ensured that 387 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 11: the AP was going to make it clear for the 388 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 11: first time we do have guidance on what it means 389 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 11: to be the comeback. 390 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 3: Then goodness. By the way, what is the news with 391 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers? 392 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 2: A lot of these shows, and I know it's got 393 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 2: to be clickbait that their metrics will tell them talk 394 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 2: about Aaron Rodgers? Is there anything that fans should really 395 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 2: be aware of, concerned of with Aaron Rodgers? 396 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 11: Hey, Dan, some of us are still trying to make money. 397 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 3: At least you admit it, Mike. At least you admit 398 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 3: it that. Come on, I can't, I can't do it, 399 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 3: But we're not. 400 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 11: We're not going to force feed vegetables. When they want cookies, 401 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 11: they want cookies, they get cookies. 402 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 12: Baby. 403 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 11: Here's here's the thing that was my big takeaway. 404 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 6: Two things. 405 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 11: One, I think the Jets handled this whole thing extremely poorly. 406 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 11: Just excuse the guy's absence from mandatory minicamp, or do 407 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 11: the mandatory minicamp the prior week and make last week 408 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 11: a couple of days of voluntary OTAs. Then it's no 409 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 11: big deal. This was a strategic and pr blunder by 410 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 11: the Jets to call it an unexcused absence. Secondly, from 411 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 11: Roger's perspective, Hey, don't schedule your trip to wherever the 412 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 11: hell you. 413 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 3: Went in the middle of June. 414 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 11: You've been doing this twenty years, you know when mandatory 415 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 11: minicamp is quite possibly going to be and when he 416 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 11: gets in of microphones and cameras and he wags his 417 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 11: finger in January about how next year it's got to 418 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 11: be all about winning, not some of the time, not 419 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 11: most of the time, all the time. We got to 420 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 11: get the bs out of the building. That has nothing 421 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 11: to do with winning. Oh you know what, I might 422 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 11: run for vice president and ghost the Jets, and I'm 423 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 11: going to go on all these different podcasts and spew 424 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 11: these crazy ass conspiracy theories. But that doesn't count because 425 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 11: it didn't happen in the building. He's very good at 426 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 11: crafting a standard and not applying it to himself. Some 427 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 11: would say he's perfectly suited going to politics, which I 428 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 11: think is inevitable. So that's the other side of it too. 429 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 11: He comes off as hypocritical by not being there because 430 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 11: of what he said in January. 431 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,679 Speaker 3: How would it go if you met Aaron Rodgers, You. 432 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:43,199 Speaker 6: Not well for me? 433 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 11: Not well for me. I can't wait to turn sixty, Dan, 434 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 11: I've done some research. Most states have laws that protect 435 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 11: us once we reach sixty, so if someone hits us, 436 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 11: they get slapped with elder abuse charges. So I'm going 437 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 11: to be even more of an ass when. 438 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 3: You're due for an ass kicking, though, Mike. 439 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 11: I'm gonna be more of an ass when I turned six. 440 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 11: But yeah, I would love I think that Aaron Rodgers 441 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 11: and I have some things in common. I'd like to 442 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 11: think I could maybe get through to him and we 443 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 11: can have a real debate. But that's the thing. He 444 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 11: never wants to talk to anybody who might disagree with him. 445 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 11: He goes on all these safe space podcasts and says 446 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 11: all this crazy stuff, and the hosts never say, dude, 447 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 11: you gotta you gotta maybe try decaf or you know, 448 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 11: maybe read a different book. Or everything isn't a conspiracy. 449 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 11: I love a good conspiracy theory. I love one, not 450 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 11: a thousand of them. It can't be that everything is 451 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 11: the product of some massive government conspiracy. 452 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 6: Anyway. 453 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, can you. 454 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 6: Set it up? 455 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 11: Can you broker it? Sure you can do it, Milford, 456 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 11: I'll come up, get him there. I'll be there and 457 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 11: he's not far away. 458 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 2: Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk Live co host, Is there 459 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 2: anything to this Chief's Kansas City, Missouri situation? 460 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 11: Well, this is great for the Chiefs. Chiefs and Royals 461 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 11: win no matter what, because you've got voters in Jackson County, 462 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 11: Missouri who have said, no, way know how, we're not 463 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 11: going to extend to sales TAC to renovate Arrowhead and 464 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 11: build a new stadium for the Royals. So fine, what 465 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,479 Speaker 11: do you do. We're gonna keep our options open. Well, 466 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 11: they're not gonna relocate. You just have to go across 467 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 11: the border. This is perfect. This is the great option 468 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 11: for any team that's trying to get taxpayer money. You 469 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 11: get two states that are right on the state line, 470 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 11: and all you gotta do is slide across to the 471 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,479 Speaker 11: other side and you get what you're looking for. So 472 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 11: Kansas passes, the House of Representatives passes a measure to 473 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,360 Speaker 11: pay for new stadiums for both teams. The Senate's got 474 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 11: to act on it, but they're moving quickly. Special Session. 475 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 11: Off they go. Chiefs have at least through twenty thirty. 476 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 11: Nothing stops them from striking a deal with Kansas, but 477 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 11: I assume Missouri is going to try to come up 478 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 11: with something and whatever it is, Chiefs, it's great. You 479 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 11: have two suitors. They're gonna bid and bid and bid 480 00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 11: and bid, and you just sit back and wait for 481 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 11: the best offer and you pick one or the other. 482 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 11: This is great for the Chiefs. They don't have to 483 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 11: threaten to move. They're going to get what they want, 484 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 11: either from Kansas or Missouri. 485 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 2: What does it mean to the fans with this lawsuit 486 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 2: the NFL is fighting right now. 487 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 11: Well, it potentially means that the way NFL games are 488 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 11: made available out of market games, games that aren't just 489 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 11: served up on Sunday afternoon by your local CBS or 490 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 11: Fox affiliate, that will be revolutionized. It will be cheaper. 491 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 11: You might be able to buy it one team at 492 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 11: a time if you want the Sunday ticket package, not 493 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 11: the whole thing for the whole season. I've always thought 494 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 11: something seemed off about Sunday ticket They market it as Hey, 495 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 11: if you're a Packers fan living in Pittsburgh, you can 496 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 11: watch all the Packers game. Well, yeah, you also can 497 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 11: watch all the others because you have to buy all 498 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 11: the others. You got to buy the whole damn thing 499 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 11: every week for every team. It's always seemed wrong to me. 500 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 11: So if this results in a loss for the NFL, 501 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 11: you've got the potential for a major payment that's going 502 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 11: to be made to millions of class members. But the 503 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 11: NFL is ain't going to have to change its ways 504 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 11: to avoid future liability. So that's the And I know 505 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 11: the NFL probably not probably definitely doesn't want me to 506 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 11: say this, but all fans should be rooting for the 507 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 11: NFL lose this because then true choice at an affordable 508 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 11: price likely will happen for fans who want. 509 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 3: To watch out of market games. But we're talking about 510 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 3: Alec Cart Yeah, okay. 511 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 11: And I mean ESPN was willing to, according to evidence 512 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 11: that came out in this trial so far, pay or 513 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 11: charge seventy dollars for the whole package when the Sunday 514 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 11: ticket was up for bid a couple of years ago, 515 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 11: seventy dollars for the whole year, plus a per team option. 516 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 11: And there's a document where the NFL makes it clear 517 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 11: they don't like that, because the whole argument is the 518 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 11: NFL is fixing the price of Sunday ticket at a 519 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 11: level that is high enough that a lot of people 520 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,479 Speaker 11: won't get it and they'll just watch whatever games are 521 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 11: available to them in their local market. So if you 522 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 11: knock that out and you let ESPN, YouTube, Direct TV, 523 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 11: Apple whoever, or say we're going to maximize the subscribers 524 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 11: to this thing, We're gonna give it away. Apple there 525 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 11: was a report at one point was gonna give it 526 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 11: as part of their current Apple TV Plus package at 527 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 11: no additional cost. So you can get a lot more 528 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 11: people and a lot more choice for the consumer if 529 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 11: you don't want to watch whatever happens to be on 530 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 11: your local CBS station at one o'clock Eastern on a Sunday. 531 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 2: Before I let you go this Brandon Ayuk situation, he 532 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 2: keeps saying they don't want him in San Francisco. San 533 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 2: Francisco says they want him. I know that there was 534 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 2: talking Deebo Samuel and Brandon Ayuk, maybe one of the 535 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 2: two being traded. So is this just negotiations here? 536 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 11: Well, I think the forty nine ers really want to 537 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 11: hold the band together for one more year, and that 538 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 11: includes Brandon Ayho get fourteen point one million in the 539 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 11: fifth year option of his contract from twenty twenty. They 540 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 11: definitely want him for fourteen to one. The question is 541 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 11: how much do they want to pay him? And I 542 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 11: think Dan, as we see the receiver market kind of 543 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 11: start to look like the running back market, where there's 544 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 11: so many great receivers coming out every year, you have 545 00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 11: to ask yourself, which guys are gonna get the we're 546 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 11: not paying you thirty million a year response from their team. 547 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 11: Look at what Malik neighbors, the six overall pick in 548 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,360 Speaker 11: the draft. Take them by the Giants. He's getting twenty 549 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 11: nine million for four years total. So if you can 550 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 11: go get great young receiver, get him under a cheap contract, 551 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 11: then you might say no to a Brandon Eye. Only 552 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 11: the best of the best are going to get top 553 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 11: of the market, and I think Brandon Iyock falls in 554 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 11: this no man's landed. Hey, Dan, if there was somebody 555 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 11: else that was willing to pay him what he wants, 556 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 11: he would have been traded before the draft. And now 557 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 11: I think he's just trying to agitate for something because 558 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 11: he knows the forty nine ers aren't going to give 559 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 11: him what he wants and. 560 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence's deal, I know Dak Prescott is just saying, 561 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 2: all right, but you know, let's let the cash register 562 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 2: go up even higher here. 563 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 3: How does this play out? 564 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 2: Jerry Jones going to be make a good business decision 565 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 2: when it comes to Dak Prescott for a change. 566 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 11: For a change's key because they waited too long to 567 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 11: get him signed to his second contract after his third 568 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 11: season when the window opened, they made him play out 569 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 11: his rookie deal at like two or three million dollars, 570 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 11: which was laughable. Then they tagged him for a year, 571 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 11: and then they realized when they were tagging him the 572 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 11: second time, we're kind of screwed here because he's one 573 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 11: year away from doing the Kirk Cousins thing where he's 574 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 11: gonna walk away because we would have to give him 575 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 11: an exorbitant amount to tag him a third time. So 576 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 11: they were forced to do a contract that put them 577 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 11: in the position they're now in. Dan They've got a 578 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 11: fifty five million dollar cap charge for Prescott this year, 579 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 11: and if he leaves after this year, they have a 580 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 11: fifty four million dollar cap charge next year, even if 581 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 11: he's not on the team. Their only way to engineer 582 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 11: that and get those numbers down is to extend his deal. 583 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 11: That's where his leverage comes from. What Trevor Lawrence gets, 584 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 11: what Jared Goff got, what Tuatonga Biloha might get, it 585 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 11: doesn't matter. Dak has everything in his favor and the 586 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 11: Cowboys have painted themselves into a corner that they aren't 587 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,479 Speaker 11: willing to find a way out of. 588 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 2: That eighteen game skilled schedule is just it's lingering, and 589 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 2: it feels like the NFL puts it out to get 590 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 2: kind of reacting. 591 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 3: Well, you know how this works. 592 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 2: It's like, let's let people talk about it and then 593 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 2: you can ask the commissioner, go, well, you know, we're 594 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 2: taking everything into consideration here. 595 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 3: How real is eighteen games? 596 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 11: I think it happens at the latest with the next CBA, 597 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 11: because when push comes to shove Dan, the owners will 598 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 11: say we want eighteen games, and if we don't get 599 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 11: eighteen games, we'll lock you out until you agree to 600 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 11: eighteen games. And the players, as we know from twenty 601 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 11: eleven before that nineteen eighty seven with the failed strike, 602 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 11: they will not go a year without football. The owners 603 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 11: will because they already got their luxury yachts and their 604 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 11: billions stashed away here, or they're not. I'm not suggesting 605 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 11: there's anything wrong with that. I'm just saying that they 606 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 11: can go without it for a year. You're a football player, 607 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 11: You've got a finite number of years you can play. 608 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 11: We have seen time and again they will not shut 609 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 11: down the sport for a year. So that's the latest 610 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 11: it's going to happen. They will cry uncle when it's 611 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 11: time for the next CBA. I think the leg is 612 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 11: currently trying to figure out is there a way to 613 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 11: go to them now and get them to agree to 614 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 11: eighteen games before the CBA expires, because I think dan 615 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 11: what the NFL is looking at when you consider what 616 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 11: the NBA got on its new TV deals. Yes, the 617 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 11: current NFL deals go through twenty thirty three. The league 618 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 11: has the right to pull the plug after twenty twenty 619 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 11: nine on all of them, and I guarantee you they're 620 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 11: going to pull the plug because it's not going to 621 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 11: be any worse than what's currently due to be paid 622 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 11: to the NFL under the media deals. And if you 623 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 11: can go to the table with NBCCBS, Fox, ABC, etc. 624 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 11: With eighteen game regular season, you get even more great stuff. 625 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: Mike is always thanks for joining us, Thanks Nancy, everybody. 626 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 2: That's Mike Florio Pro Football Talk Live.

Okay, 636 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 13: it's a little it's a little maybe too early, and 637 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 13: uh maybe a little complicated, but I'm wondering what the 638 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 13: passing of Lollie Mays. 639 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 12: Who the greatest living baseball player is right now? And 640 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 12: I have a few suggestions to fill the uh to 641 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 12: fill the questionnaire? I mean, you got the challenging ones 642 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 12: with UH, with Pete Morose and Barry Bonds, but Kid 643 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 12: Griffy Junior, Johnny Bench, Uh, maybe Derek Jeter, just curious. 644 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 2: Sandy Kopek's still alive. Yeah, there's there's quite a few players. 645 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 2: Best player of all time? Well, it depends on if 646 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 2: you accept what Bonds accomplished, and if you do, then 647 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: you'd have to say Bonds just from the sheer numbers here, 648 00:32:53,960 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 2: but best player currently alive Junior's in there too, Pete. 649 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: I mean, you can't take away Pete's numbers. You can 650 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 2: take away Hall of Fame inductee status, but you can't 651 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 2: take away what he did as a baseball play. He's 652 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 2: the winningest player of all time. So i'd probably, you know, 653 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 2: once again, the need you know, the playing career stands 654 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 2: apart from what he was doing. 655 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 3: As a manager. 656 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 2: Now, was he gambling when he was playing? I don't 657 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 2: think he started when he was as a manager. But 658 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 2: if they don't have proof on it, then I'll that 659 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 2: had nothing to do with his stats. By the way, 660 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: It's not like he was using you know, performance and 661 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: dancing drugs. So I would say Pete is the greatest 662 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 2: living player right now. I mean, just off the top 663 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 2: of my head. Jim in Rochester, Hi Jim, what's on 664 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 2: your mind today? 665 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 11: Hi? 666 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 14: Dan? 667 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 15: Watching the finals with some friends in the last week 668 00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 15: and question came up about the best big man shooter 669 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 15: six ten or taller. And when it came out, I 670 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:09,720 Speaker 15: assumed everyone was going Durant, but I had a different 671 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 15: guy from the seventies obviously. Etually, Jack Sigma came up, 672 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 15: Dirk and Rick Mount came up, freaking Dan Thissel. But 673 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 15: I got a guy eight Rookie of the Year early 674 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 15: seventy one, seventy two, two seventy three, he averages thirty one, 675 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 15: seventy four, seventy five, MVP. 676 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 3: Averages dirty Bob McAdoo, Bob mcadow. 677 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 15: I'll take Bob McAdoo all day over Durant. If you 678 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 15: look at his highlights, he was six or eleven, but 679 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 15: did not shoot inside of ten feet recently. 680 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 6: Yep. Yeah. 681 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 2: And look there's a lot of guys in that group. 682 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 2: I mean Durant. Durant has knocked down dagger Man, I 683 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 2: mean just killer. He's the guy if you said he's 684 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 2: got an o been eighteen footer. Of all the big 685 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 2: men you're talking about, I'm going to take Durant. I 686 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 2: just think he's he can't miss Sickmund was great. Dan 687 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 2: Issel was wondering Jerry Lucas, like, there are guys who 688 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: were great shooters. Isso I think is really underrated. But 689 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 2: Dirk was. Dirk reinvented the position. I got to factor 690 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 2: that in. There have been a lot of great shooting 691 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 2: big men. They just there were a lot like Patrick Ewing. 692 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,800 Speaker 2: We didn't know that he could shoot you know, eighteen 693 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 2: footers because he didn't do that at Georgetown, and he 694 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 2: got into the NBA and became more of an offensive 695 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,240 Speaker 2: force than a defensive force. And he's, you know, probably 696 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 2: top five defensive players of all time in college basketball. 697 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 2: So there's there's a lot of big men who have played, 698 00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 2: who have who have shown range. Larry Bird, is he 699 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 2: a big man six ' nine. He's as good as 700 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,720 Speaker 2: anybody who's ever played. But like, what is it six ' 701 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 2: ten makes you a big man or six eleven makes 702 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 2: you a big man? 703 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, Paul, I don't think. 704 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 7: We should use height with this one because Durant was 705 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 7: never playing the big man role. He was always an 706 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 7: outside to end player. Novitzky started outside and then went 707 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 7: to the basket. He didn't you Guys like Jack Sickman, 708 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 7: Dan Issel and Bill Lambier and Bab McAdoo were listed 709 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 7: at center or power forward on the team, and they 710 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 7: started as post guys who expanded like sick Man was. 711 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 7: He looked like a ladder unfolding at seven feet out 712 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 7: there in the in the eighties. So I think those 713 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 7: are like centers who shot from deep, and I don't 714 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,720 Speaker 7: look at Durant in the same way, he's a tall 715 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,360 Speaker 7: guy who plays like a wing position here wing. 716 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 2: Well, you know you're taking guys who were centers who 717 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 2: could shoot outside as opposed to guys who would have 718 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 2: been centers in a different era, and now they're playing 719 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 2: the three or maybe the four. 720 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, Marsha, because there's a big difference between a big 721 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 5: man and a tall man like Durant and like even 722 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 5: like Sam Perkins. Those guys are a tall man. Yes, 723 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 5: guys like you were just saying Jack Sigma, even like 724 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 5: a Rick Smiths. 725 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 6: Who could hit the open jumper. Yeah, those were big. 726 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 2: Man Travis in Green Bay, Hi, Travis, what's on your 727 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 2: mind today? 728 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 14: Good morning, Dan. I have a question for you and 729 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 14: the dan Ads to chew on this morning. If if 730 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 14: what Lebron is saying is true, if he says that 731 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 14: it's Anthony Davis's team, shouldn't the Lakers be looking at 732 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 14: John cal Perry with that history with Anthony Davis and 733 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 14: that any record. 734 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 3: No, no, no no, that. 735 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,280 Speaker 2: That NBA ship has sailed cali Perry is a college 736 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 2: coach and now going to Arkansas. 737 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 3: He'll Jon is coming up. 738 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 2: I mean all I ask him, whence you know, did 739 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 2: he give it any thought, when's the last time he 740 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 2: gave thought to coaching in the NBA, because he certainly 741 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 2: had opportunities. I'm just curious what he thought with Dan 742 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 2: Hurley at his age thinking about coaching in the NBA. Yeah, 743 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 2: because John didn't have a good run. You know, it 744 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 2: came down to if they drafted Kobe instead of Kerrie Kittles. 745 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,479 Speaker 2: Is it too soon to ask coach calab don't forget 746 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 2: up first. David in La, Hi, David, what's on your mind? 747 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 15: Hello? 748 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 8: Dan? 749 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 6: I did. 750 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 8: I was fortunate enough to have seen Willie Mays play 751 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:29,240 Speaker 8: baseball in nineteen sixty six. My father had been offered 752 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 8: his company's box at Chase Stadium on a night when 753 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 8: the San Francisco Giants were in town facing the Mets. 754 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 8: And I've got to say I was as transfixed as 755 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 8: you or Tim Kirchin just watching Willie take that in 756 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 8: practice from the rail there. But regarding the Polo Grounds, 757 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 8: my first baseball game was in sixty three, and that 758 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 8: was the mets temporary home before they got their new 759 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 8: stadium in Queen's And that oblique structure in center field 760 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 8: described by Seaton also doubled as the clubhouse, and I 761 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 8: can still remember a starting pitcher for the Mets. I 762 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 8: think it was Tracy Stallard getting knocked out of a 763 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 8: game and having to make that long five hundred foot 764 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 8: walk of shame to the showers. 765 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 2: Didn't Tracy Stallard give up Roger Merris's sixty first home run? 766 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 2: So yes, yeah, Tracy Stallard. Would you rather be remembered 767 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 2: that you gave up something like that or not be. 768 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 3: Remembered at all? 769 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 16: Marvin, I know, Ralph Branker, you do, yeah, Seatan, I 770 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,439 Speaker 16: don't need to read remembered for that. 771 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,879 Speaker 3: That you gave up a legendary home run. 772 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 4: I mean, it's cool, I guess, but it is a 773 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 4: certain place in history, like you. 774 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,720 Speaker 2: Got to be there in the moment facing Roger Marris 775 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:52,720 Speaker 2: at Yankee Stadium. 776 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 4: See, I don't mind if it's just like, if it's 777 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 4: a landmark home run that was like, ah, look, this 778 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 4: was there, you know, sixtieth home run or whatever it is, 779 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 4: that's fine. But if it was like, hey, remember when 780 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 4: you gave up that home run to lose the World Series? 781 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 3: That's to me. 782 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 4: They're not all created equally, you know, Yes, Todd, I 783 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:11,800 Speaker 4: think I'd. 784 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 17: Be on the wrong side of history regardless of what 785 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 17: it was. 786 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 3: You just want to be remembered. 787 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,280 Speaker 17: Yeah, yeah, even though you were a part of something terrible. 788 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 17: I totally understand what Seten said.

But you're part of something that's going 791 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 17: to be forever in lores or what. 792 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 2: Not, and that speaks to your role on this show. 793 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 2: I guess it might not be great, but somehow never 794 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,720 Speaker 2: be remembered. You're going to be remembered memorable. 795 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,280 Speaker 17: For such a horrible thing.
