WEBVTT - Hour 1 - Charles Barkley (03-10-20) 0:00:00.560 --> 0:00:03.200 Thank you for listening to this podcast one production now 0:00:03.240 --> 0:00:06.320 available on Spotify, up the podcast, podcast one dot com, 0:00:06.360 --> 0:00:10.680 and anywhere else you get your podcasts. What's Happening Everybody? 0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:14.200 This is the official Lakers podcast. I'm your host, Mike Trudell, 0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:17.120 super pumped to be here, flanked by Aaron Lars School 0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:22.000 You ready to go? I'm ready to go. I think 0:00:22.000 --> 0:00:24.400 the Lakers will be a top ten defense. And you're 0:00:24.400 --> 0:00:29.479 telling your try to get a team that has two 0:00:29.480 --> 0:00:31.800 stars or two superstars in this case of Lebron and 0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:34.400 Ad can sometimes can't the other out. But I think 0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:38.080 they're both good candidates cramp teams. I really like the 0:00:38.120 --> 0:00:41.920 way that this team just feels to be around the 0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:45.000 It's a it's a very clear message that's two stars 0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:46.879 and Lebron and Ad and it's everybody else that's on 0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:50.160 board the relationship that is developing between those two off 0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:52.320 the court and on the court. They're cohesive news on 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:54.200 the court. I think in this case, this is a 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:56.880 special case that the two of them will enhance each 0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:58.760 other as opposed to be taking away from each other. 0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:03.480 Be sure or rates, subscribe and leaver review.

Coming up in a little bit 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:28.040 about to talk to Charles about including a philanthropic idea 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:32.839 that he has for selling some of his memorabilium. Says 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.160 he doesn't have any use for it, and he's got 0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:37.080 an idea that he's going to be able to raise 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:40.000 some money and help some people.

A couple of things here. 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:59.280 Let me start off with you know, I think the 0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:02.480 obvious time topic that's going on now is the coronavirus 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:05.760 and how sports will likely play an important role here 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.960 and it's a scary time because it's the great unknown. 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.840 It's no surprise that societo issues often play out in 0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:15.480 a very visible way in the sports world and in 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:19.600 a very literal way. There are large public gatherings and 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:23.839 now authorities will monitor those gatherings quickly, and then you've 0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:27.280 got in what a month's time, we're going to have 0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:32.760 a Final four three weeks from now, Final four and 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:38.679 championship game, and you'll have seventy thousand people, or will 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:41.720 we There's a symbolism at play here. You may not 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.480 live in an area directly affected by the virus yet, 0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:47.280 or you may not see a lot of this day 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:51.760 to day any differences in your life, but athletes performing 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:55.440 in an empty stadium could bring the image home to millions. 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:59.000 You're already seeing this in Italy with soccer matches that 0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:02.120 are played with no fans in the stands. There's a 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:07.240 report that came out in Santa Clara, San Jose, California, 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:11.880 the San Jose Sharks NCAA women's basketball tournament at Stanford 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:16.680 an MLS game. They're in doubt because what they're looking 0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:20.120 at is a ban of all large gatherings of at 0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:22.600 least one thousand people for the rest of the month 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:28.600 in response to this coronavirus. Right now, we're, you know, 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:30.720 a country that we're trying to figure out how we're 0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:34.240 able to take action, What risk do we take? Sports 0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:37.000 is certainly not the priority, but it's part of the 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:39.720 fabric of our lives. You know. Sports brought us back 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:42.920 together after nine to eleven, and for many the games 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:46.000 will go on. But let's just hope the case for 0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:50.080 the foreseeable future is that friends and loved ones remain 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:52.840 safe when it comes to this. We're smart about this, 0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:55.160 and I don't look at a league and say, boy, 0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:59.040 they're being overly cautious. You got to be smart about this. 0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:01.320 And I think going to get to a point just 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:05.000 my feeling that we're we're gonna have sporting events with 0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:08.920 no fans. I don't see this getting better. I see 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:12.560 this getting worse. And you could still have those games 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.880 on TV. You know. Lebron came out and was very flippant, 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.400 and I think miss Spolke when he said, hey, if 0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.680 there's no fans there, I'm not performing. Well, there's fans 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:24.599 watching on TV. It's you know, we gather for a 0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:28.839 sporting event. It's strange how we can have these players 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:31.760 playing against one another, leaning on each other, sweating on 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:34.640 each other, and we're not thinking about that. But then, hey, 0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:38.320 don't put your hand to your face, you know too civilians. 0:04:38.720 --> 0:04:42.400 So I think we have to be aware, conscious of 0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:45.360 how sports will look here in the next couple of weeks, 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:48.719 and that will be the Final Four and the championship 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:52.679 game with March Madness and bringing these fans together neutral sites. 0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:54.800 I know it's going to hurt some of these cities 0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:58.640 that depend on tourism, but you know, for the time being, 0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:02.240 you know, this isn't just about the sporting event, the 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.880 game itself. It's about life and death and people getting sick. 0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:09.840 The number of cases here in the United States it's 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.760 just starting. I had a friend who is actually in 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.919 Vietnam and yesterday went into a bar. They took his 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:21.080 temperature before he went into the bar, so if he 0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.200 had a fever, he wasn't getting into the bar. I'm 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:27.880 granted that's in Vietnam and you know what's happened overseas, 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:30.480 but I think you're going to see a lot more 0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:34.200 of this here in the United States. They're limiting the 0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:37.560 media availability for athletes going into the locker room. That's fine. 0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:40.120 I mean, that's not a big deal because they've set 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.120 aside these areas that you can interview, and they have 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:46.240 press conferences. It feels like before and after every game. 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:50.000 But I think we're inching along there. But I do 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:57.599 think that NBA, the NHL, soccer, baseball, that you know, 0:05:57.640 --> 0:05:59.840 they're going to be at the forefront of this. I 0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:03.440 don't count on the NC Double A doing something. As 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:06.120 you know, it takes them a while. And we've asked 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:08.720 for Mark Emmert, the president of the NC Double A, 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.120 to come on so we could at least discuss this, 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:14.120 but haven't heard back from them, which is no surprise. 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.720 But I don't know if the NC Double A is 0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:19.920 going to be that proactive and say, hey, no, no 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:21.880 fans are going to be at these tournament games. There 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:23.640 are no fans are going to be at the final four. 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.480 I think it'll take the NBA saying no fans are 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:30.880 going to be at games, or you know, if it's 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:34.520 baseball or whatever it might be, some other entity is 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:36.320 going to have to be at the forefront and then 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:39.560 I think the NC Double A will react to that. 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:43.840 But scary time, and you can't help, but you know, 0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:46.200 tune into the news, and I know you you tune 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:50.560 into this show as a diversion, but this does affect sports, 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:52.599 and that's why I'm talking about it today. I'm not 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:56.000 here to scare anybody, alarm anybody, Uh you know, this 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.440 is just the reality of where you know, the society 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:02.120 that we're living in right now. It's a great unknown, 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:06.800 great unknown. The fact that there are American citizens that 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:09.960 were on a cruise ship that couldn't even dock, They 0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:13.440 couldn't even get off the cruise ship. And you see 0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:17.800 the videos around the country. Italy is scary. That's just 0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.640 it's it's not a ghost town. It's a ghost country. 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:26.320 You got fourteen million people quarantine and I don't know, 0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:29.720 like classes are canceled that at schools here you have 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:33.160 to skype, I guess to take the class there. Like 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:35.800 there's there's things that are happening, and I know you 0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:37.320 look at it and you might go and it's not 0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:39.720 a big deal. You know, we're the United States. We 0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:42.440 always figure this out. Well, in this case, we may 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:45.720 not have the answer. I hope we do. I expect 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:51.040 we will, but right now I have doubts, and I 0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:54.000 think we all should. But there's nothing wrong with having 0:07:54.360 --> 0:08:00.000 taken a precautionary measure here or two. No washing your hands, 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.760 doing the you know, trying to eliminate you know, who 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:04.800 you come in contact with, how often you come in 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:07.760 contact with people? You know, I understand those things, but 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:11.280 I don't look at people and say you're overreacting. And 0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:14.800 certainly what's happening in Washington State. I saw where Pearl 0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:16.720 Jam said that they're not going to be touring. They 0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:20.160 just canceled their their tour coming up this summer. I 0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:23.040 think there's going to be more events like that. You know, 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:27.120 Coachella and south By Southwest canceled. How can you cancel those? 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:29.040 But then you're not going to cancel the Final Four? 0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:32.800 Like I. You know, these are questions that are coming 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:36.520 up and somebody's gonna have to answer it, and I 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:39.240 don't know if we'll have an answer one way or another. 0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:42.439 By the time were rolling around with March Madness and 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:44.200 the reason why I say that that's the one big 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:47.960 sporting event that we have coming up where you're going 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:52.199 to have sixty seventy thousand in Atlanta for the Final Four, 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:57.280 and do you want to go? You know? Even I 0:08:57.640 --> 0:09:00.559 went to a spin class on Saturday and it was 0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:06.320 noticeably empty because you're in a class, it's confined, and 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:10.880 people get nervous. And I understand that, UM, and you're 0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:14.280 gonna see this. I think that gyms, when you go UM, 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:18.440 it's just it's just starting. The response we got was 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:21.400 President Emirate is not available, but thank you for checking. 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:24.400 I think we've gotten that for about six years. I 0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:28.640 think they just hit that. That's a that's an automatic reply. Yeah, yeah, 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:31.920 yeah bull. It's interesting though, because you're watching the news 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:34.320 last night it's very scary and the coverage. But then 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:36.960 you turn on TV and there's fifteen thousand people at 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:39.240 a college basketball it's the game sitting comfortably and like 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:41.400 Thursday night, I was talking to some guys yesterday I 0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:43.599 was out and there's a hockey match. I want to 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:46.040 see a college hockey match. Want to go check it 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:48.520 out with the family. You're gonna go to a college 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:51.280 hockey match. I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna go. First of all, 0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:53.120 there's five about five hundred people in the building. It's 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:56.400 not that big, but you still have to comfortably live 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:59.559 your life. This program brought to you by a True 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.040 Car by Smarter Drive happier. If you're going to buy 0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:04.520 a used car, the internet can confuse you with the 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:07.400 vague pricing. Not anymore. Go to True Car, get an 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:11.440 upfront price from dealers online, and search from over a 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:15.199 million pre owned vehicles for that new car by Smarter 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.240 Drive Happy You're a true car. Mclovity got a poll 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:20.280 question today. Well after that open, I think there's only 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:24.080 one appropriate pole question. Is Baltimore Ravens guard Marshall Yanda 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:27.319 Hall of Famer? Yes? I know, Wow, of course that's 0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:30.680 That's exactly where I was headed. I guess he retired. 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:32.400 You've always said he's a Hall favor by the way, 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:33.840 so I'm not even gonna put that. You've been at 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.960 All Pro eight times. Yeah, he's ridiculous and he's won 0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:41.000 a Super Bowl. So how many offensive linemen have done that? 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.400 But people do not get fired gone to the whole thing? Oh, 0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:46.480 I know about it? Yeah. I mean you've been talking 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:51.400 about Tony Boselli forever and that barely you know, um okay, 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:54.000 speak of things that people don't really want to talk about. 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:58.319 Probably you haven't talked about the NFL contract yet. Is 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:00.599 there putting up a pole? Do you care if the 0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:03.800 players vote yes or no? Yes or no? And so 0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:08.160 I'm just approaching this, and you know, maybe I'm skirting 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:12.600 my duties as the radio host slash journalist. I just 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.959 want to give you what I think you need to know, 0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:17.720 because if you want to know about the other stuff. 0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:19.840 Then you can read the four hundred and fifty six pages. 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:22.520 But I just want to know this is really about 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.200 the halves and the have nots. Because you have sixty 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:28.319 percent of the league that makes the minimum, and all 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:31.400 you need is a majority to pass this. So if 0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:34.560 you do the math, sixty percent, I only need a 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:38.200 little over fifty percent and this passes here. I've said 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:41.280 all along, I don't like the seventeen games, the fact 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:46.600 that the owners said non negotiable. You're having a seventeenth 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:50.439 game non negotiable. That's the one item that the players 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:55.200 had that was a bargaining ship playing the seventeenth game. 0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:58.760 I don't know if they're getting enough for that seventeenth game. 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:02.920 That's just my opinion from the cheap seats, just looking 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:05.600 at it and going if I was a player, if 0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:07.760 I was a star player, I certainly don't want to 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:11.400 play a seventeenth game. If I'm a guy who's making 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:14.720 the minimum, I do want that seventeenth game. I don't 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.679 know what it's going to mean for the franchise tag. 0:12:16.720 --> 0:12:18.920 I don't know what it means for a salary cap. 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.880 I don't know what it's going to mean for Patrick 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.880 Mahomes's contract. I don't know what it means for the 0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:28.079 home schedule, the away schedule. Where is that extra game 0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:29.840 going to be played? When do they come up with 0:12:29.880 --> 0:12:32.720 this schedule? Is it next year? Is that the year 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.360 after that? Those are the things that I want to know, 0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:38.440 And that's why I've tried not to bore you with 0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:41.440 some of the minutia in here. Yeah. McLeman, Okay, I 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:43.880 want to make sure that I'm not buying any what 0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:46.360 the NFL owners are secretly selling through the press. But 0:12:47.040 --> 0:12:49.439 I feel like there's one powerful storyline that this deal 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:51.360 seems like a good deal now and the NFL is 0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:53.840 in a good position with the networks now and then 0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:55.680 do you see these reports that the deal is gonna 0:12:55.679 --> 0:12:57.280 be worse next year? Is that do you think that 0:12:57.400 --> 0:13:00.960 rings true? I don't want a ten year deal. If 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:03.040 I'm the players, I don't want a ten year deal 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:06.800 because it feels like the financial landscape is going to 0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:09.400 change and then these players are going to go. But 0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:14.040 that was a great deal. Once again, I'm not a 0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:16.319 lawyer and not trying to play one on TV here. 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:19.680 It just feels like that's signing up for a long, 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.800 long time. It feels like it's longer than ten years 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:27.839 because everything changes, you know, are viewing patterns, the amount 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:29.600 of money that's going to be involved in this. When 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.640 sports gambling gets involved in this, the leagues get a 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:36.440 piece of that. It feels like the players deserve to 0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.920 get half of the revenue. Here. If you want me 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:43.280 to play a seventeen game, I was told by reliable 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:47.240 source that they will. The owners will fight to get 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:51.400 an eighteen game schedule. They're not happy with seventeen, but 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:53.560 they knew they had to get if they were going 0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:56.040 to get to eighteen, they had to get to seventeen first. 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:59.880 See how it feels, you know, how people react to it, 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:03.720 how many injuries you know, you know, the impact that's 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:06.000 gonna have on the playoffs like that. Those are the 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:07.920 things that they're going to sort this out, and then 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.960 they're gonna go, we want to open this back up 0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:14.360 for an eighteenth game. I was told that over the 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:17.560 weekend because I said, this is probably gonna pass, but 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:21.640 I guarantee you the owners, will you open this up 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.760 for an eighteenth game? And he said, you're right, yeah, 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:27.480 And it's almost inevitable because with a seventeen game schedule. 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:30.000 Someone's going to have an extra home game, extra revenue, 0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:32.800 extra everything from the home concessions and all that. Three 0:14:32.880 --> 0:14:35.320 or four years from now. Some teams complain, Why, you know, 0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:37.160 let's let's make sure we have the equal amount of 0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:40.120 home games. There comes eighteen five years from now, Well 0:14:40.440 --> 0:14:43.080 you're gonna switch. What I was told is one year 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:45.720 you'll have one less home game, and then the next 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:48.160 year you'll have one more home game, so it'll balance out. 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:52.480 But they're still talking about the neutral site. So there's 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:54.600 still a lot to play out here. And they move 0:14:54.680 --> 0:14:57.760 the deadline to Saturday for the players to vote. I 0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:01.880 don't know what that means. The person I two didn't 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:05.240 respond to me, but I was asking about pushing this back. 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:08.000 What does that mean with the players Association? Yeah, mclub, 0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:10.240 But if you're an average NFL player, what do you 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:12.160 care about ten years? You're not going to play for 0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:16.360 ten more years. It's a notoriously short lifespan, so aren't 0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:18.360 you thinking short term? Hey, get this deal done now. 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:20.440 I'm going to get a raise immediately. Oh, I get it. 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:23.840 I get it with the sixty percent of the league. Absolutely, 0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:26.360 But if I'm you know, one of the stars, no, 0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:30.280 I don't like this at all, and I still think 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:35.000 they need a separate salary cap for quarterbacks or remove 0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:39.240 quarterbacks from the salary cap. Like, that's what I would 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:42.320 want if I'm running the players Association and be like, hey, 0:15:42.760 --> 0:15:45.280 let's just take the quarterbacks off the salary cap so 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:48.080 we can spread that money around a little bit better 0:15:48.560 --> 0:15:52.240 with the other players. And we floated this idea a 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:55.280 couple of months ago, and they did talk about this. 0:15:56.200 --> 0:16:00.800 The owners did talk about a separate salary cap or quarterbacks. 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:04.960 And if I'm the you know, the players Union, this 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:07.000 is what I would want because now I can spread 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:09.800 that money around. We're gonna make more money. And now 0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:12.960 you'll make more money because we're gonna take that quarterback 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:16.320 off of the salary cap and you have your own 0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:19.040 special salary that you can you can pay your quarterback 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:22.400 whatever you want to pay. I couldn't care less, the 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:25.600 most important position in all the sports, paying whatever you want. 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:28.160 The other players. You have a salary cap, then you 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:31.880 can share in the revenue. Then there's a seventeen game schedule. Okay, 0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:34.680 but man, you can't let the owners have what they want, 0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:39.560 and what they want is that seventeenth game non negotiable. 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:43.920 That would make me. You know, that's I left a 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:45.760 deal when I was given a take it or leave 0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:48.680 it at ESPN because I don't. I don't do take 0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:52.560 it or leave it. Now, there's negotiations, there's discussion, but 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:54.320 when I get a take it or leave it, I 0:16:54.440 --> 0:16:57.640 left it. And if I'm the players, I'm getting basically 0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:01.320 a take it or leave it seventeenth game negotiable. I 0:17:01.360 --> 0:17:05.359 don't like that, but that's what it feels like, you know, 0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:08.399 the owners. And I was cautioned when I said, it 0:17:08.560 --> 0:17:11.880 feels like the owners are getting a good deal. And 0:17:12.040 --> 0:17:16.600 I was cautioned by saying, there's appearances, and sometimes those 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:21.840 appearances are meant to look differently, and you know, I 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:24.400 was told, you got to look at it understand these 0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:27.040 are things that are really important. And I said, okay. 0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:29.239 It feels like it's always the bottom line of how 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:32.480 much money is being made. That's always where I look 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.080 at who won and who lost. It's like the USFL 0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:40.120 sued the NFL and won that trial and got three 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:46.800 dollars three dollars. Hey, we we sued the NFL and 0:17:46.920 --> 0:17:49.840 we won, and they troubled the damages and we got 0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:54.920 not one dollar. We got three great, Yeah, I read it. 0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:56.800 A lot of players want to revote or want to 0:17:56.840 --> 0:17:59.280 redo their vote after their initial vote. Does this feel 0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:01.800 like almost that they're not letting him right? It's like 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:03.760 you know how you get emails about something that could 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:06.720 be work related, your kids' school, about your car, and 0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:08.240 all of a sudden you get a phone called, hey, 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:10.320 this is happening today, or we're gonna make this chase. 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.280 I wasn't told about this. You've got an email for 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:16.800 a year. Delete delete, delete, delete delete, all right, we'll 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:18.679 take a break here, We'll get some phone calls.

But 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:29.719 what he's doing with his all of his awards, including 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:33.400 his MVP and two Olympic gold medals, gonna auction them off? 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:35.760 Tell you why he's going to do that?

Fuctor Charles Barkley. At a moment, 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:18.160 we'll leach, a wonderful writer for a New York magazine 0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:22.160 has written an article and just came out today. I'll 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:25.960 read you the last paragraph. It would seem that a 0:20:26.080 --> 0:20:29.480 breaking point will arrive when one of these leagues blinks 0:20:29.600 --> 0:20:32.920 CRY's uncle and makes the sweeping change to current policy. 0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:35.760 If this virus plays out the way it's looking like 0:20:35.880 --> 0:20:38.920 it might, that could set in motion a chain reaction 0:20:38.960 --> 0:20:42.680 of cancelations. But right now, every financial incentive and every 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:45.480 cultural bias is telling the leagues to wait as long 0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:49.480 as humanly possible to make a move By then it 0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:52.760 may be too late. We'll leach in New York Magazine. 0:20:53.280 --> 0:20:56.320 Charles Barkley set to join us and Charles, good morning. 0:20:56.359 --> 0:20:59.040 How are you. I'm great, brother. How are you doing. 0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:02.080 I'm doing okay. Hey, where do you think we're headed 0:21:02.119 --> 0:21:05.639 with the coronavirus when it comes to canceling games or 0:21:05.720 --> 0:21:09.480 games without fans? Well, I'm not sure where we're at. 0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:12.439 I hope we don't get to that point. To be 0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:15.760 honest with you, my question would be, if those fans 0:21:15.840 --> 0:21:18.360 don't come to the game, are they just gonna stay 0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:22.320 in the house forever? Are they gonna go to work? 0:21:23.480 --> 0:21:26.919 Are they gonna go to dinner? Like just because they 0:21:26.960 --> 0:21:30.919 don't come to NBA games or sporting events? Are we 0:21:31.000 --> 0:21:33.000 assuming they're just gonna stay in the house and the 0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:36.600 rest of their life. Yeah, it's a great though. I mean, 0:21:36.840 --> 0:21:39.639
