Because it's a lot to get into. How 32 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: did they break it down? So back in twenty ten, 33 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: my rookie year, we went through this process and Jason 34 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: Witten was our was our spokes spokesman for the NFL PA. 35 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: So we had a lot of meetings where we would 36 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: it would be players only we would come in. He 37 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: would get us in the auditorium, he would kind of 38 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: break down the most important parts of the PA and 39 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: what he thought about it. He would give us a 40 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: chance to vote, give people a chance to speak and 41 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: let them know if they liked it or if they didn't, 42 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: and then he would, based on what he the feedback 43 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: that he got from Russell would go back and meet 44 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: with the rest of the other thirty two NFLPA spokespeople 45 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: and they would vote and they would say yes, we 46 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: agree on this, yes we don't, and then they would 47 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: talk to d Smith and if he felt that that 48 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: was right, then he would say yes. If not, he 49 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: say no. And we went through a process where it 50 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: was a lot of nos in twenty eleven. So you 51 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: went through a lot of knows. How did you finally 52 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: get to the yeses? What was that? What was that 53 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: time frame? Man? That I remember that pressure is what? 54 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: Uh what got to the yes is right? I was. 55 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: I would tell you this. I was so surprised as 56 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: a rookie to hear of how many big money guys 57 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: were hurting for cash after one or two months of 58 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: this of the lockout. It was crazy, the stories that 59 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: people would come back. And I remember d Ware. I 60 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 1: was sitting next to d Wear in the locker room 61 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: and uh, it was it was a point where we 62 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: were getting uh kind of checks that hold us over 63 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: because every month the NFLPA would hold a little bit 64 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: from our check just for these type of situations, and 65 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: we were sitting there and d war It's like, I'm 66 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: sending my check back to give it to these guys 67 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: who are having these issues. And I'm like, how Like, 68 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm a rookie, I'm making rookie minimum and I'm at 69 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: least able to make it two months, and these guys 70 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: aren't being able to make that, make those payments. So 71 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: as it comes to when you're about to miss those 72 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: real checks, those twenty and thirty thousand dollars checks, it 73 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: was like, hey man, the pressure was put on those 74 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: those league guys to say, hey, let's let's hurry up 75 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: and get something done. So once it was kind of 76 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: in that idea we might miss a game or two, 77 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: that's when they got real serious and people started moving, 78 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: making moves. Which is why I say the nfl PA 79 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: will never and has never had the kind of cloud 80 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 1: that Major League Baseball players Association's ad because those players 81 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: have gone on strike, those players have missed games. If 82 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: you don't miss any games, then you'll never be able 83 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: to fully get everything you want as a player because 84 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: you are the product. Look, the NFL cannot sit around 85 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: here and try and roll out scab players the replacements. 86 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: They can't do that again. I mean, let's just say 87 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: you wanted to go get a bunch of guys from 88 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: the XFL and play them this fall. If we've seen 89 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: what the XFL is in the struggles that they've got 90 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: to just generate points. It is hard. These are the 91 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: best players in the world. But if these players refuse 92 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: to miss games, because that's to me, that's the only 93 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: way you make real You've got to sacrifice something to 94 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 1: get something, and the NFL players have been unwilling to 95 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 1: do that in the past, which is why the owners 96 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: continually don't have to hand out guaranteed contracts. That's one 97 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: thing I've always just wondered about from the outside is, Hey, 98 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: if I'm a player, what's one thing I really want. 99 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: I want to see what baseball players and basketball players get, 100 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: which is a guaranteed contract. Think about Christaps Porzingis and 101 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: the Mavericks one hundred and fifty eight million dollars guarantee. 102 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: And think about this Danny he never played one regular 103 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: season game for Dallas before he signed that contract this summer. Yeah, man, 104 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: that's the NBA. I will say this as far as 105 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: getting like getting people to be on board with that. 106 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: We have so many more people in our league, right, 107 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: it's a lot more difficult to get the start of 108 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: ninety and then those fifty three of every team to 109 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: feel that way, right. Yeah, of course Tom Brady and 110 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: those guys making all that money, Yeah, they fine, But 111 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: then you've got another twenty guys at the bottom of 112 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,559 Speaker 1: the roster who making minimum. Who's like, hey, no matter 113 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: what happens with this CBA, I'm still gonna be making minimum. 114 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: Like this, this deal for the NFL, and if these 115 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: players are really for the top five or six guys 116 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: on the roster, right when you go, hey, you guys 117 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: get two more percent of the revenue gap right in 118 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: the bottom half of the roster gets the ninety thousand 119 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: dollars increase. Yeah, the top half of the roster is 120 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: getting another ten fifteen million. This is for them. So 121 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: me sitting at the bottom, when you're trying to get 122 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: all these guys to say, nah, man, hey, let's miss 123 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: a couple of games. It's like I'm making the same 124 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: amount of bread anyway, And if I'm in the middle, 125 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna get released for a younger guy to 126 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: come in because now they can't afford to pay me 127 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: because they're gonna pay the quarterbacks and the receivers all 128 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: this money. So ultimately, in this new CBA that has 129 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: been proposed by the owners, there are no guaranteed contracts, 130 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: so so it's going to basically this will continue to 131 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: go on. Now, I'll say this when I watch NBA 132 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: free agent sign tracks again, I don't want to see 133 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: anymore tweets from NFL players talking about we should be this, 134 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: and I wish I had, I mean, the the the 135 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: enviousness that I've seen these tweets when NBA guys get 136 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: money from NFL players, I want to hear anymore because 137 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: this was the opportunity to try to go to membership 138 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: and say, look, but if you but if you're in 139 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: the minority, and you and you, and you voted for that, 140 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: then you can still got the right to be envious. 141 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you could still be upset with the majority 142 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: who voted opposite of you, but you still got the 143 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: right to be envious of not having a guaranteed contrary. 144 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: You know, the Kirk Cousins. However, one guy on ever 145 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: want to hear say that it's Kyler Murray because he 146 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: had money, he had the money in the baseball he 147 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: turned it away. So here a couple of points about 148 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: this CBA. Andrew Brant used to be the legal the 149 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: legal guy for the Green Bay Packers. He's now out 150 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: and he's he's a very popular member in the medium. 151 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: But he talks about the new CBA and the marijuana 152 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: testing in there. That testing windows go from four months 153 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: to two weeks at the start of training camp, reduces 154 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: the number of players tested, reduce penalties for positive tests, 155 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: and raises nanogram threshold for a positive test from thirty 156 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: five to one fifty, which is the World Doping um 157 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: Agency threshold there. So basically, the NFL is putting out 158 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: there that we're really not trying to have guys miss 159 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: games anymore for marijuana. That they're more they're more understanding 160 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: of it. We now know that there are states like California, 161 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: in Colorado and Washington where where miracle where marijuana is legal. 162 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: So they they're they're changing that. And look, I get 163 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: this thing too. I mean the end of the day, 164 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: having guys miss games for marijuana tests is nothing, is 165 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: nothing any of these owners want, they want their best players. 166 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: They want their players, period and Glad you made that point, 167 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: because I was driving in here and listen to radio, 168 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: and I was hearing these guys talk about that when 169 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: you and these negotiation periods and uh, you know, everybody's 170 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: holding strong, and then all of a sudden you start 171 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: seeing things that are given out there that you you 172 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: assume are big, and they really the owners are giving 173 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: it to the players. It doesn't really hurt the owners. 174 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: They don't lose anything about getting it. As a matter 175 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: of fact, like you said, they actually lose some money 176 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: by having these great players a miss this time off 177 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: the field for felling these tests. Right, So what are 178 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: you really getting out of it? On the players side? 179 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: This is a plus. This is a plus for both. 180 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: Now here's another thing that I thought the players would 181 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 1: make sure they got, but I don't see there at all. 182 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: Was limiting Roger Goodell's power. Oh yeah, go back to 183 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Eli. So it was Roger Goodell who had the 184 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: ability to wield out the six game suspension. The players, Okay, 185 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: just make sure people get this. The players Union said, yeah, Roger, 186 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: it's okay. You can go ahead and suspend this at 187 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 1: will the way you want to. Why would you not 188 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: change that at all. If you're the players Association, is 189 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: that a not in There's that absolutely not changed. Well, 190 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: the owners didn't put it in there, oh when they 191 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: handed over to the players. So maybe I want to 192 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: do Maybe Richard Sherman and somebody's out there saying, we 193 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: gotta add this in, and we gotta add this in, 194 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: we gotta add this in, and we would send them 195 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: back and see if they agree with it or not. 196 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: Because I'm of the opinion Roger Goodell suspending Ezekiel Elliott 197 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: and Tom Brady did nothing to help the league. If anything, 198 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: you hurt your product because Tom Brady's not there out 199 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: on the field playing games. It's Jacobe were setting Jimmy 200 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: Garoppolo and while the Patriots are able to get by 201 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 1: without him and go win the Super Bowl. At the 202 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: end of the day, you know what I know as 203 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: a fan, I want to see Tom Brady. You're paying 204 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: to see Tom Brady play, especially when he comes to 205 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: your town, right I know. I mean there are two 206 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: teams right now in the NFL. When they come to 207 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: your town, you're selling the stadium map. It's the Cowboys 208 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: and the Patriots. People want to see Tom Brady play. 209 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: And then when Ezekiel Elliott was suspending, who was that hurting? 210 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: Oh goodness that this wasn't you know? That was hurting 211 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: your league? That was hurting because at the end of 212 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: the day, we know what Cowboy ratings are, all right. 213 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: When you start looking at the networks for Fox, CBS, ESPN, 214 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: and NBC, you go look at what's their highest rated game. 215 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: It's a Cowboy game versus someone else, the Cowboys equal ratings. 216 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: You take away ezekielity, you're hurting yourself. And then what 217 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: are now people talking about. They're talking about what was 218 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 1: going on with Elliott in his situation and what was 219 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: going on with Tom Brady, which doesn't make the league 220 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: look good. So I think if I'm the players Association, 221 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: I go back there and I just say, look, Roger 222 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: Goodell cannot have a limited power to just sit us 223 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: down anyway he wants it. He cannot be the judge, 224 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: jury and execution. So so so what is the alternative 225 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: to to that? Is it a vote between three or 226 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: four people and he has to go talk to somebody 227 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: else first, or like what does he has to talk 228 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: Detroy visit and then arbitrating is first off, I would 229 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: think an independent arbitrator is wasn't needed. That's what I 230 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: would want if i'm players. So if we're going first off, 231 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: you go back and say no, he can't do it. 232 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: So if the owners push back on that, then then 233 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: what will playing B to B? I would tell d Smith, Hey, look, 234 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: let's figure out some way that if Roger Goodell wants 235 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: to say I'm going to suspend Tom Brady four games 236 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: for deflate gate, then we need to go to an arbitrator, 237 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: and we need to put both sides out there. You 238 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: present your case, will present our case, and then let 239 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: the arbitrator decide whether or not this this this can 240 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: be held up. But I just don't think it's right 241 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: to have one person be able to decide whether or 242 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: not because what do we see consistently it's we don't 243 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: see any consistency with the way that they're sitting here 244 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: punishing players. And Lord Miles Garapas would be suspended for 245 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: they said indefinitely, So they so they met the rest 246 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: of the season. It was basically Roger Goodell's decision. So 247 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: it was they suspended and for the rest of the year. Well, 248 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: they said indefinitely. You know, best said you're suspended for 249 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: the rest of the season and suspended to definite, which 250 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: was will decide when you get to come back. Now, 251 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 1: what are the beauties of listening to what's happened with 252 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: the hut To Astros over Major League Baseball is and 253 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 1: people say, well, why does it Rob Manford just suspend 254 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 1: all these guys. The Players Association won't let you do 255 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: it because they've got an iron clad agreement about the 256 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 1: types of punishments that you can and can't do. So 257 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: basically Rob Manford's hands were tied. I would suspend these guys. 258 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: No you're not, No you're not. Because they talked about 259 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: all right there was they were never given quote unquote notice, 260 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: which meant that Rob Manfred and Major League Baseball needed 261 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: to give notice to all the players. What they did 262 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: was tell the Houston Astros management, the general manager. Okay, 263 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: so Manford told the general manager at all major league 264 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 1: general managers, and so their job was then to go 265 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: down and tell the players, Hey, you know what, can't 266 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: be cheating anymore. It's all written right here. Lou Now 267 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: never did it, Jeff lu Now, the GM never did it. 268 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: So the Players Associations, I guess what so so so 269 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 1: the GM, he never, he said, he never went and 270 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: told them how pay said it. We never got The 271 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: players said that. He also said that he didn't say 272 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: it right, and the players soci they were never given notice. 273 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: Y'all didn't tell us to stop cheating, broke being go right. 274 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: So since you never gave me notice, you can't suspend me. 275 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: That's how powerful the Players Association is in Major League 276 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: Baseball that the commissioners I can't even mess with these guys. 277 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: We need to write that down on a whole bunch 278 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: of different other scenarios. And that's why I say, until 279 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: you go out and miss games, until you make a 280 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: sacrifice as a union, you're not going to be able 281 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: to get the power and the things that you want. 282 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: That's why baseball has got what they have. So you've 283 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: got to be able to do it. Um. And from 284 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: what you're telling me, there's so many guys and so 285 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: many people who aren't saving or willing to make the 286 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: sacrifice that it doesn't happen, which is why you don't 287 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: have the guarantee a lot of who they do not. 288 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: You make a very significant amount of money each week 289 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: right during the season. Imagine missing a month of that, 290 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: even even the person making minimum is losing almost one 291 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty hundred and thirty thousand dollars. All right, 292 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: and in that month, let me let me throw this 293 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: out here, just got this from from from our pretty 294 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: sorry player. Discipline for all field violations would be heard 295 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: by neutral arbitrator, but appeals would go to the commissioner, 296 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: and the league would still conduct its own investigations into 297 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: such matters. So when you say heels would go to 298 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: the commission, it still means guess what, well, you got 299 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: some of it. You got the first the first part 300 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: of it, but independent arbitrary. You know, I just would 301 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: want as little possible going to the commission based on 302 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: what we've seen. So so what I'm saying, so it 303 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: will go to the arbitrator. The arbitrator would make the decision, 304 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: and then if you want to appeal that decision, it 305 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: would go to Roger Goodell. So essentially the arbitrator has 306 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: made the decision anyway, so Roger gonna say yes, I 307 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: accept the pills or not. So at least you got 308 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: him out of the He's out of the person one, 309 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: all right, all right, So that's good. That's a that's 310 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: a that's better than what we've seen there. All right, 311 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: there is something in this CBA that's been that the 312 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: owners have accepted that if you're a Dallas Cowboy fan, 313 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: you should be very, very worried about concerning trying to 314 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: keep a couple of free agents a month all no 315 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys want.

Um does anybody who's down to Jacksonville. 361 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: I don't even know Doug Marone, the head coach, was 362 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 1: see him anymore after after everything had happened there. Um 363 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: that was that was that was that was That was 364 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: a bad, bad decision, and how they were trying to 365 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: trying to fix that thing. They're like to me that 366 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars might be the Sacramento Kings, Like these 367 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: two organizations keep having these issues. Man, But it's crazy 368 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: enough because you thought they were old uncle. The upcome 369 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 1: after I said, you know, they should have beat the Patriots. 370 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean, they should have was Pittsburgh. It was it 371 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: was the Patriots, and and but and ever since then, well, 372 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: I mean, but they depend on Blake Borders. I'm sorry, yes, 373 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: depend on Blake boards. Put go back to this situation 374 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: where the next year, the thinking they had, well we're 375 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: going to go to the super Bowl, that they thought 376 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: they could just pick up where they left off and 377 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: we were going to be that. And they did all 378 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: this talking, put this big old bulls eye on their chest, 379 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 1: and and they failed to meet expectations. Didn't show up. 380 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: Blake Borders didn't show up. Look, it is it's hard 381 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: to think. And Steve Young talked about this in his 382 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: book The QB. When you get up there to Mount Everest, 383 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: you have to go all the way back down and 384 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: start the climb again. You know, you don't get to 385 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: Everest in a week. It's it's a long, long, long climb. 386 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: It's really really hard and you have to start again. 387 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: And for many years, when coaches would say, well, you know, 388 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: every team is different, every year is different, I just 389 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: kind of thought it was coach speak. But then once 390 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 1: you start covering the game and you get around it, 391 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: you start to see, yes, every team is different. Mentalities 392 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: are different. Um that last place schedule that Jacksonville was 393 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: able to utilize to get to the SC championship, Well, 394 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: now I guess what your first place. Now everybody's looking 395 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: at you. Everybody's studying and putting in more time in 396 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: the offseason to check you and what it is you do. Well, 397 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 1: it's hard when you're the hunting. Well ask Carolina they 398 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl, got it ain't been the 399 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: same sense. Oh. One of the things that I also 400 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: have noticed, and this just doesn't apply to football, really 401 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 1: applies to a lot of sports. Losing a championship is 402 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: really hard. It's hard. San Francisco is in trouble. Yeah, 403 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: pretty much outside of Jimmy because that's obviously okay, look 404 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: at the Rams. When I did my preseason prognostications, Danny, 405 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: I did not pick the Rams to make the playoffs. 406 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 1: So they're gonna make playoffs. It's hard to come back 407 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: from that type of disappointment. Then to the way they 408 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: lost as well. Your offense not show up. Jared Goff 409 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: misses that touchdown, that's wide open. I won't say it 410 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: was Cooks that he missed that right there, that was 411 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: essentially the ball game. He needed to make that throw 412 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: if they were going to win that game. It's kind 413 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: of like that Philly Special that they ran against New 414 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,959 Speaker 1: England's Super Bowl. You make that play, then the belief 415 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: factor and everything else you needed was there. The Rams 416 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: didn't get it. It's just hard. It's hard because now 417 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: everybody's also ready for you. They're studying what it is 418 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: you do. Then we saw Todd Gurley was not the 419 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: same guys. So it's just hard to lose like that 420 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: and go back again. Speaking of that Philly special, didn't 421 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: Tom Brady try to run that same play and uh 422 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: fumbled and stumbled and fumbled and and did all that 423 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: good stuff. It's not for everybody, by the way, it's not. 424 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: It's not for everybody. I mean, why we're asking a 425 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: forty year old, Well what I'm saying, I'm taking it 426 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: to this point. The Patriots, opposite of that, are the 427 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: one team where you can say every year the expectation 428 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: is that, right, there's the outline. They're outlined. That's the 429 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: thing I consistently try to tell people when they want 430 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 1: to bring up the Patriots in anything, I said, that's 431 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: your outliers. They have a quarterback who can stumble and 432 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: fumble and drop that pass and look like the most 433 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: unathletic person in the world. You still say, you know what, 434 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: that team right there is gonna win a Super Bowl. 435 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: Let that be dak let that let that be Aaron 436 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: Rodgers or somebody going out to you like, oh man, 437 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: we're in trouble. This is how our game started. We're 438 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: in trouble. There's outliers that it. Sometimes fans just don't 439 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: appreciate San Antonio Spurs. That's an outlier. Well, let's do 440 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: what the Spurs do. Nah, not quite, that's an outlier. 441 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: That's why we have and we look at certain companies 442 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: and certain teams. They are put them over here because 443 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: they're just that. How many times have we seen people 444 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: try to go and get folks from the New England 445 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: Patriots and implement what they're doing and they're failing. Can 446 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,919 Speaker 1: we look at the Detroit Lions right now? But you're not, 447 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. You're just because you got the 448 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: we had no name said. We have the same issue 449 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: with a coach here who you get somebody else's scheme 450 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 1: not your own, and you don't see it the same 451 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: way they see it, and then you're not able to 452 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 1: put the same type of players in that position to 453 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 1: where it creates success. But you do have the scheme. 454 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: I think that Patricia he knows exactly what the Patriots 455 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: do inside the organization and how the coach coaches and 456 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: the expectations and how do you run practicing and all 457 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: that stuff, But he don't see it the same way 458 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: Belichick season. The Lions don't see it the same way 459 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: Craft season. It's not the same just because you go 460 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: get that guy. Rick Goslin, Hall of Fame Pro Football 461 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: Writers said it to me best. You don't have Belichick. 462 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: It's the whole thing. It's it's Belichick. That's the whole 463 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 1: kid in Caboo. It's him, not not what he does, 464 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: it's how he does it and when he does it 465 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: and how he thinks about it. You know what I'm saying. 466 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: Getting it done. You can't just write it on paper 467 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 1: and then you read the book of how to do 468 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: this for dummies and then you think you're gonna go 469 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: out there be able to do it. It's his I'll 470 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: give you another example that and you slick over at 471 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: college basketball, all these coach k assistants who you know, 472 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: what's your house? Skip at Mark had, Chris Collins over 473 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: at the Northwestern, Jeff Capel over at pitt Now and 474 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: Jeff was over there at Oklahoma. They're not him. Mike 475 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: Braydon Notre Dame does a good job, but they're not 476 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: Coach k And so many people think that way, we'll 477 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 1: hire from this tree. I'm gonna get this guy here. 478 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: Most of the time, if you don't have the real McCoy, 479 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: you're just gonna get a counterfeit. And in the counterfeits 480 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 1: is not a lot of times. Sometimes they put that 481 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: mark on there and they find out that it's counterfeiting. 482 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, you're done. They hold it 483 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: up to the light. Did you ever see that special 484 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: I told you was It was a really good special 485 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 1: about backup singers. It's called two Feet from Stardom or 486 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 1: five Feet from Stardom. Well, it's a whole series about 487 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: people who were backup singers who try to their field 488 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: become leaders and how hard it really is that. Hey, 489 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: some people are just fantastic backup singers. For instance, Luther 490 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: Vandros was a backup singer for David Bowie. Okay, we 491 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 1: all know Luther Vrows one of the great R and 492 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: B singers of all time. Why he rest in peace. 493 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: It's hard to make that type of transition. Cheryl Crowe 494 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: was a backup singer, I want to say she was 495 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: a backup singer for Michael Jackson. Richard Marks was a 496 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: backup singer for Lionel Richie so. But it's just really 497 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: hard to go from being this backup person to lead dog. 498 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,920 Speaker 1: Most people don't do it. And it's the same way 499 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: for a lot of coaches. We see a lot of 500 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 1: assistants who get jobs who just can't do it. And 501 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 1: that was really so much of what we've seen on 502 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: the Belichick tree. These guys have tried to jump here 503 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 1: and they could not do it. It's a hard thing 504 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: to do. Man, quick, quick, thirty second off topic, all right, 505 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: we're talking about singers, all right, because we hadn't got 506 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: a chance to touch on the All Star Game, all right. 507 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: So we had Fergie last year doing the national anthem, 508 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 1: and this year we had good old Shaka Khan go 509 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: out there and do her own rendition of the national anthem. 510 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: And I really want to get your thoughts on what 511 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: is going are they doing this on purpose, okay, or 512 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 1: it's the NBA booking these people on purpose? Are they 513 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 1: telling them to do something special on our land this year? 514 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: Because it seems like this is the only sport what 515 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: this is happening in Like the Cowboys, We got the 516 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 1: saxophone play. He's good. You know, he's good at what 517 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: he does, and we continue to keep him trump This 518 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: is this is the trumpet. This is continuous with the NBA. Okay, 519 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: here's my opinion. The NBA's always going to be a 520 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: little more lax about what they do. They're going to 521 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: do with things just a little bit differently because it's 522 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: the NBA, and that's one reason why they've become very popular. 523 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: Everyone is chasing Marvin Gay. And when Marvin Gay sang 524 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: the national anthem at the Fabulous Forum, you're a little 525 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: young for that, I definitely am, but but check it 526 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: out on YouTube. This is, in my opinion, the standard 527 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: of I'm going to do my own rendition and you're 528 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: all gonna love it. And Marvin Gay is just truly 529 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 1: one of the greatest soul singers I've ever heard. Marvin Gay, 530 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 1: Sam Cook, I mean, they're just just beautiful, beautiful. You 531 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: could take these guys acapella and it's, oh my gosh, 532 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: she didn't even need any strings or horns or anything 533 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: because they're that good. People are chasing it, and it's 534 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: here's the thing once again we talking about, you know, 535 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: trying to be the real deal. These people are trying 536 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 1: to counterfeit. They're trying to sit there and copy, and 537 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: they're they're coming up short. And here's that thing, bro 538 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: short when you when you come up short like that, 539 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: you come up real. I used to working up backwards. 540 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: What are we doing? I used to work in LA 541 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: and I would go to a lot of boxing events 542 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: at the forum. I would go to a lot of 543 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: basketball games, and then I would also go to a 544 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,120 Speaker 1: lot of minor league games too, be at minor league 545 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: hockey games, in the minor league basketball. So I've just 546 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 1: seen a lot of stuff. What would happen in LA. 547 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: All these record companies were trying to introduce groups, and 548 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: so they would send them out there. So forum boxing 549 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: there would always be now newly sacient artists. They would 550 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: have these who would all come out with their America, 551 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 1: the Beautiful Rendition, or their own version of the National. 552 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: I have truly seen some of the worst national anthems 553 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: that you could ever imagine because in La everyone was 554 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: trying to be this star. Everyone was trying to be this. Well, 555 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna do it differently. I'll tell you one time, 556 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: this one group sang the national anthem for Shaquille o'deal's Shaktacular. 557 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: It was this event that Shack bring in some inner 558 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: city kids over to Universal Studios and he would have 559 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: kind of like his Olympic Games. Thing was called Shactacular. 560 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: So these guys come out there and this one dude's 561 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: got this curly hair, another guys, these five of white kids, 562 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: and one guy's got these twisties in his hair, and 563 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: they sing the national They don't do it, they just 564 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: do a regular indition.

But that 579 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: was la. Everybody's coming up with everything different.

What 586 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: are artists? Artists are people that want to take chances 587 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: and try and do different. That's a lot of just 588 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: telling you did she say to somebody first? And then 589 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: then they tell them, hey, yeah, that's the one you're 590 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: gonna kill them with right there. Okay, you bring up 591 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: a very good point because out a friend of mine 592 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: in the speaking business, uh In delatoral McNeil, who said, 593 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: make big mistakes on small stages.

The family member told her it was good, 597 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: and then they went right back behind the back and 598 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, they're gonna laugh for all the 599 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: stage because she was leaned up. I heard one on 600 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: four on one on four in the morning they had 601 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: a little remix of the so I know, but it's 602 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: still it's still listen, that's what it's okay. NFL has 603 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: that because it Levado this year. Yes, she killed it. 604 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: Yes she killed it. So good job, good job to us, 605 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: Good job to us, because that was that was shaky. 606 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: Look the NBA, their NBA is going to allow you 607 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: to express yourself a little bit more. So I'm with you. 608 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: You know. The memes was still the fur, the fergie 609 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: fur stuff. So bad? Was we did you see Draymond Green? 610 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: Raymond look at the lips? That was bad? And then 611 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: they're just trying to hold it all in. Yes, even 612 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: if when the players are just like, oh my gosh, 613 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: what is she doing? Where are we now? That was bad. 614 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: But I just tell them I've never seen as many 615 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: bad national anthems as I did during my time in 616 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, as all these new people came in here, 617 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: so that that's what it is. Um, all right? A 618 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: tweet that Ian rapperport NFL dot com put out there. Uh, 619 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 1: he says if the players approved this deal, two tags 620 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: turned into just one. He said, huge news for the Cowboys, Bucks, Titans, 621 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: and others. Meaning you can't use a franchise tag on 622 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: Dak and a transitional tag on a Mark Cooper. You're 623 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: just gonna have one tag. So if you're Dak Prescott, 624 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: you and your agent are sitting at home like, Hey, 625 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: which one of us is getting tagged? That's what? Which? 626 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: Which one of us is getting tagged? That's easy? Yeah, 627 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: it should This should have been easy to say. This 628 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: should have been easy last year. The quarterback is gonna 629 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: get tagged because who's the one guy you're afraid to 630 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: lose in free agents? Yeah? Most definitely so, So Prescott 631 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: gets tagged and Mark Cooper could be running free So 632 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure probably Dak and a margin. Hey, how are 633 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: you doing? This is March tenth? Right, March tenth is 634 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: when you gotta declare the tag writer at that's that's 635 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: sounds about? Yeah? Is free agency March tenth. Uh and 636 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: I noticed because I spoke about it yesterday. My birthday 637 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: is on March tenth. I'll be twenty one years old. 638 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: Good on March tenth. And also we'll find out if 639 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: Dak is getting at or not. And the to me, 640 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: if you're a Cowboys fan, you should be worried about 641 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper going to the market because Samari Cooper is 642 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: going to get paid, and and and and fans, this 643 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: is where I love about fans. Fans want to start 644 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: getting into who's worth this and what guys deserve. It 645 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: just takes one team who says we'll write this check 646 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: because we want you. It doesn't matter about well he 647 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: ranked here that they're teams out there that are desperate 648 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: for players who are going to write a check. And 649 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 1: there are a lot of teams that are going to 650 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: overpay a guy. That's what free agency so much is about. 651 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: A lot of times, it's going to be an overpay 652 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: for you to take someone and bring them to your team. 653 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to blow with Amari Cooper away to 654 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: say I don't want to walk away from that. Well. 655 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: I also think that a lot of people who watch 656 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: free agency and then they don't really understand what goes 657 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: into picking a free agent. So for the Raiders or 658 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: for the Eagles or Mary, Cooper might not be as 659 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: good of a fit, but he's a great player who 660 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 1: they would pay top dollar for. For another team, they 661 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 1: would pay the most for them because in their scheme 662 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: he is that missing piece. He fits perfectly and as 663 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 1: far as what routs they wanted to run, what type 664 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 1: of physicality has, how he thinks as a player on 665 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: the field, and all that stuff, it's just a different fit. 666 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, for the Cowboys, yeah he might be worth this, 667 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 1: But to another team, if he's a perfect fit, yeah 668 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: he might be worth another five, five or six million 669 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: dollars because for their team they feel like that is 670 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: the one piece that they're missing. That's not how the 671 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys feel about Cooper. Desperation gets a lot of deals 672 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: done in free agency. And when I say desperation, there 673 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: are general managers and then they're head coaches who know, 674 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 1: we have to win this year and we don't care 675 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: if we overpay because if we don't win, we're getting fired, right, 676 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 1: We're gone, and this is something for someone else to 677 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: clean up. That's another thing that fans don't talk about. 678 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 1: Is that the Browns? Oh? I thought, you're talking about 679 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: the Browns because they okay, because they paid a lot 680 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: for some guys that's been They were just paying them. 681 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: They didn't care if they fit the scheme or not. 682 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: It was just like we got we have a bunch 683 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: of good guys on our squad. I was I was 684 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: in a conversation with someone about Dak Prescott and I 685 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: mentioned Kirk Cousins because they were talking about how how 686 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: in their minds Dak wasn't worth this number. And I said, 687 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna point out Kirk Cousins to you. If you 688 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: think about a three year, eighty four million dollars, this 689 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,439 Speaker 1: is something we've never seen in the National Football League. 690 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: This guy's not a top twelve, top fifteen quarterback when 691 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: he got it? What had he what had he led 692 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 1: Washington too? Not a thing. Nothing. There was the playoffs 693 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: ones right, some it was arg they lit the playoffs once. Yeah, yeah, 694 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,399 Speaker 1: until they got they got they got a one time, 695 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: but twenty fifteen. But we look at him overall, I say, 696 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: quart is this in eighty four? Is this guy the answer? No? 697 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: But Minnesota thought this was an upgrade overcase Kingdom. They 698 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: didn't care what they had to do, and they wrote 699 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 1: the check because they were desperate. They thought they were 700 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: missing one piece and were so for everybody else, Kirk 701 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: Cousins were not that one piece, but for Minnesota they 702 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: were like, look, man, we just we were one step, 703 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 1: one step away, and they thought it was Kirt. I 704 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: go to Jimmy Garoppolo, who reset the market based off 705 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: seven games with the San Francisco forty nine, and I 706 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: defended it from this standpoint. Oh you still defending it? Yes, okay, okay, 707 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 1: And here's why that family on San Francisco. So we 708 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: spent a lot of time out there. Do you know 709 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 1: on those PSLs that they had at Levi Stadium. They 710 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: had because once the forty nineers had let Harball go 711 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 1: and they went through Chip Kelly and Jim Thoms, there 712 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: were people who were not paying them. They told you, 713 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: we're gonup paying that, you know, So if you're if 714 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: you're PSL was one hundred and you know, you know, 715 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: one hundred fifty bucks or fifteen hundred bucks, they they're 716 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: fans like, yeah, we're not paying it, forget it and 717 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 1: basically just ripping up. So they were now suing their 718 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 1: own fans. It was bad. You could see red seats everywhere. 719 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: When Jimmy Garoppolo got in there and he was playing, 720 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 1: and he was for those seven games, and they were 721 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 1: winning these games, they started fans started going. He was 722 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 1: giving them hope, and they saw it and in their minds, 723 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 1: and and and and and and some people they were 724 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: talking about Joe Montana, like, remind me a little bit 725 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: of Joe. So you know what he's up right in 726 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 1: the check. You gotta spend the money anyway. I mean, 727 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: you're you know, you got to spend some money. They 728 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: decided this is our guy. They wrote him a check 729 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: for twenty eight million dollars and I said, you know 730 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: it good good, good for you. From the standpoint that 731 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: you didn't have any other option, mean they did. They 732 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: didn't want to draft to Sean Watson, you know, they 733 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,239 Speaker 1: didn't want to draft Patrick Mahomesy. They had opportunity to 734 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 1: go out here, get the quarter. They have options, right, 735 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: so they didn't want to go that route. They got 736 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. You didn't want him to get to the 737 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 1: market because you're gonna get in the market two years. 738 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,879 Speaker 1: So they paid him. They said, this is our guy. 739 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: We believe in him. We're gonna pay him. You know what, Jimmy, 740 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,720 Speaker 1: You're you're the man. Fun. I don't have any issues 741 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: when you are You're John Lynch and your Kyle Shanahan. 742 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,479 Speaker 1: You believe this is the guy we can work because 743 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: remember the thought process was they were gonna go get 744 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. Yeah, because Shanahan didn't happen that way. Didn't 745 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 1: happen that way. I will tell you to tell you 746 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 1: this hindsight. And then thinking of the history of the league, 747 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: if you can get away with paying that much money 748 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: just to get to the Super Bowl, is worth it. 749 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: And thank you. That's my other thing, because you got Chicago, 750 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: who would pay that much money at any time to 751 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: get back Temples will pay that much money. There's plenty 752 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: of teams out there who would pay that much money 753 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: to go to the Super Bowl one five years because 754 00:38:56,280 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: that will pay for itself easy raising this year and 755 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: people looking for them for them. It's fine, but player wise, 756 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: and you think about winning games and doing all that 757 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 1: stuff or whatever. So yes, I have no issues with 758 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: them paying. Jimmy g at the time, I said it 759 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: was good. I was out there in the Bay Are 760 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: because it was the Cowboys Raiders game in December when 761 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: we were out there and Jimmy was doing his winning 762 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: and the Niners had a game that day and they 763 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: had people show up this people showed up empty. There 764 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: was excitement, people were talking about them on the radio. Okay, 765 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: So in my mind, just seeing when you went to apathy, 766 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: that's the worst thing you can have as a as 767 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: a team is people don't care. People cared. People saw 768 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: Jimmy his hope. They were buying into the well, you 769 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: know what he played under Tom Brady. He was our 770 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: part of a team to want. They were there. So 771 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: if you had the fans excited about a quarterback and 772 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 1: they're thinking he might be their next Montana, write the check. 773 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: Write the check. And right now, twenty million dollars for 774 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: a starting quarterback in this league is nothing true because 775 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,840 Speaker 1: it keeps going up, or even to be only on 776 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: thirty eleven Thompson, we need to get into Emmett Smith 777 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: weighing in on Dak Prescott's contract, plus the rest of 778 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: the gas who've been laying in on his gut.

Bro I'm hungry. Good for jo, good 838 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,320 Speaker 1: for Joe Joy Cincinnati, Joe Burrow. Let me just in 839 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 1: that whole aj Green and Ross. I think that they 840 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: have three good players. AJ Green will be healthy. You know, 841 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:32,959 Speaker 1: he got a quarterback. I think that'll be just fine. 842 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 1: And a J. Free. I think that he will be 843 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 1: just first of all healthy JJ Free. Is he healthy? 844 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: He's gone go on the weather on the well, No, 845 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: I can see a J Green at Philadelphia out have 846 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 1: them both never because I sure the ain't been healthy 847 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: for two years, y'all season you can have you can 848 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:55,959 Speaker 1: I see him in Philadelphia. So you said Joe Burrow 849 00:43:56,040 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 1: going to Cincinnati with no receivers. It's good. It's a 850 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: good receiver draft, justin Jeffson. That's a good receiver draft, 851 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 1: is lu But Joe Burrows gonna be a Cincinnati being 852 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 1: period period. So uh And Dak Prescott will be a 853 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 1: member of the Dallas Cowboys and he will have a 854 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 1: new contract. He will have a new contract. Now a 855 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: new country, not a franchise, a new countract, because I 856 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: don't I don't consider those the same. Okay, I mean 857 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 1: you got to sign it, so it is essentially a 858 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 1: country but a long term deal. Yes, yes, okay, so 859 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: you you put me down here. On February twenty first 860 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 1: on the Players Lounge, Dallascowboys dot Com. Dak Prescott will 861 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: have a long term deal and he will be playing 862 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,959 Speaker 1: for the team this fault. Will he miss any any 863 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: OTAs or many can? Will he miss any of that 864 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: time due to this? No, So they're gonna get this 865 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: done or he's just are he gonna show up? He's 866 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: gonna show up. They're gonna get it. Okay, I'm gonna 867 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 1: get it done. They will get it done. Um. I 868 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get that tag, and I think that 869 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 1: he's gonna put that pressure on him and not show 870 00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:01,359 Speaker 1: up to some of these uh voluntary events. You got 871 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: a new head coach who needs to put in his system. 872 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 1: He needs the quarterback here, Cooper Rush. Putting in the 873 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,880 Speaker 1: system is probably not what Mike McCarthy wants or the 874 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 1: seventy seven year old owner and Hall of Famer Jerry 875 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: Jones wants. Jerry Jones knows he doesn't have that many 876 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:24,320 Speaker 1: more opportunities at a championship. Just as we saw Ezekiel 877 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 1: Elliott get his money he waited, Dak Prescott is going 878 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 1: to get paid now. Emmett Smith, hall of Fame running 879 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 1: back for the Cowboys, decided to come out on a 880 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: podcast and say that Dak Prescott should take seven million 881 00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:43,359 Speaker 1: dollars less. When he talked about it, it was when 882 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,040 Speaker 1: you look at he should take twenty eight million, So 883 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 1: he should one seven million dollars less. Now that is 884 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo money. Jimmy Garoppolo made twenty eight and when 885 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 1: Jimmy made it, he set the market off seven games 886 00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:01,280 Speaker 1: place set the market at twenty eight. Emmett is saying 887 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: that Dak Prescott should play for Jimmy g money, not 888 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz money, not Jared Goff money, his contemporaries. This 889 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 1: is but go play for that bro our show. Our 890 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 1: show is on Friday, which is which is difficult. So 891 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,399 Speaker 1: I kind of get a chance to like have to 892 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 1: listen to everybody take take our take some sayings that 893 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 1: we usually would have said or that we actually do 894 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 1: say in the locker room. And I will say that 895 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,840 Speaker 1: I did hear Shannon Sharpe say this, but this is, uh, 896 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: this is this is exactly what it is. Stop pocket watching. 897 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 1: Are you serious? Stop count this man money. You're not 898 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,880 Speaker 1: even playing, You're not here. It has nothing to do 899 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: with you. Let this man take care of business how 900 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:46,320 Speaker 1: you want to take care of business and make his 901 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:51,480 Speaker 1: money just like you did. The hypocrisy is unbelievable that 902 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: that's that. That just stood out to me, It stood 903 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:58,720 Speaker 1: out to many fans, Danny. I was covering the team 904 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: when Emmett played and that went down. I was there 905 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:05,439 Speaker 1: at the training campus Saint Edwards in Austin, Texas, because 906 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,280 Speaker 1: I was working there when Emmett missed the two games. 907 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 1: I covered one of the games that he missed and 908 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 1: then covered the first game that he got back. So 909 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 1: I remember it, and I remembered all the scuttle. But 910 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 1: because at the time they're defending Super Bowl champions, they 911 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: ended up losing one of those games. In the Buffalo Bills, 912 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 1: they go oh and two, and everyone says, we've never 913 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,839 Speaker 1: seen a Super Bowl champions start the season off at two. 914 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,359 Speaker 1: Charles Haley is so mad he throws his helmet where 915 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,720 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones is standing in the locker room, missus Jerry, 916 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:36,360 Speaker 1: and it's it's stayed. I mean the helmet stayed to 917 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,720 Speaker 1: all they had to go patch the ball. This thing 918 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:42,360 Speaker 1: was at deaf Con five and guess who got exactly 919 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 1: what he wanted? It was Emmett Smith was high over 920 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 1: the highest fade running back and something like that. He 921 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,760 Speaker 1: got paid more, he got he wanted more than Mary Setons. 922 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 1: That's when he was trying to get that until he 923 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,680 Speaker 1: got and and can I say this deserved his money? Okay? 924 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 1: I had no issues with Emmett getting what he wanted. 925 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,399 Speaker 1: I just us found it very interesting. And you tell 926 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:04,800 Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong. I don't remember when Emmett told 927 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott to save some money so they can sign 928 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: him Mark Cooper that and I don't remember hearing any 929 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: stories about anybody on his team telling him to take 930 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 1: less money so he can come back and win the 931 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. They I'm sure they were in there saying, hey, man, 932 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 1: do what you gotta do. We need you back, but 933 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: you need to make sure that you get your bread. 934 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: Nobody was in the tell them to take less money 935 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,719 Speaker 1: or he was saying, forget y'all, I'm gonna make it. 936 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:31,440 Speaker 1: I have been very frustrated by the social media comments 937 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 1: that people are trying to say, you can't pay Dak 938 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: all that money and go win. There's not going to 939 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 1: be anyone to put around Dak. I didn't hear that 940 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 1: said about Matt Ryan. I didn't hear that said about 941 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,280 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. I didn't hear that set about Carson Wentz 942 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 1: or Jared Golf. We pay Tony a hunt of million, 943 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 1: and then we pay Tiring a hunt of million. What 944 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: are we talking about here? It's like we even dishing 945 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 1: out the bread. Like everybody said, it is not Dak's 946 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 1: job to figure out how to get the pieces around him, 947 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: all right, it's not his job to do that. And 948 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,399 Speaker 1: don't bring it in the outlier of Tom Brady because 949 00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:13,759 Speaker 1: once again now he's looking back and saying, nah, not 950 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 1: no more. So come on, man, you can't. That's just 951 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 1: this this fallacy that that somehow that if the Cowboys 952 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 1: pay Dak Prescott, there's nothing that nobody else is on 953 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 1: the squad. Meanwhile, Zekiel Eli got his fifteen million per 954 00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 1: nobody can't. I find it amazing, And you know, go 955 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 1: back to what I used to say when I did 956 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: NBC Sports Radio on a national show. It's amazing on 957 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: who we choose to forgive and who we choose to condemn. 958 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:40,040 Speaker 1: Jared Goff is making a lot of money with and 959 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 1: I've got no problem with Jared Goff making a lot 960 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 1: of money, But is Jared God, did he leave some 961 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 1: money to pay Aaron Donald. Remember Aaron Donald wuldn't pay 962 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:49,760 Speaker 1: the time. I'm still trying to get stuff out, every 963 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,919 Speaker 1: piece of money that he wanted. There you go. Did 964 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,879 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz leave any money in Philadelphia? Guess what they're 965 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,800 Speaker 1: gonna figure it. It's not his job. He's not the GM, 966 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 1: not on the books. Did Drew Breese ever try to 967 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 1: say if any dollars in New Yorker anybody? The only 968 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 1: person that has done that is I'm Rady the outline, 969 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:13,400 Speaker 1: so who also has a very rich wife. Yes, so 970 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,839 Speaker 1: it's not really hurting for cash, which I don't want 971 00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:17,760 Speaker 1: to count their pocket like that. But I gotta figure 972 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:19,319 Speaker 1: out some type of reason for him to say I'm 973 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 1: gonna I lead as much money on the table just 974 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 1: to somebody because I'm good everybody and not like that. 975 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,959 Speaker 1: The Saints are one of those teams always got cap 976 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 1: issues that are right there with the cap. Drew Brees 977 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:33,319 Speaker 1: gives no discounts. Guess what he signed and you know 978 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,200 Speaker 1: what they had room to sign Michael Thomas, didn't they 979 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 1: Your job is just trying to figure out how to 980 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 1: how you do this. We signed Jay, We did all 981 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 1: this before we signed There now here's something else, And 982 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: I go back to this in the eighties that I 983 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 1: saw working when sat before the salary cap was even there. 984 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,319 Speaker 1: But the forty nine ers were trying to still watch spending. 985 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 1: Under Eddie de Barlow, they won so much people decided 986 00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: they would take less money to win. My friend Toy 987 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 1: Cook for years played for the Saints, ended up going 988 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 1: out to San Francisco, took less money because he wanted 989 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 1: to be a part of a team that won a championship. 990 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 1: He got a Super Bowl ring out of it. What 991 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 1: have we seen consistently with the Patriots that they're getting 992 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: people like Chris Long and Durell Reeves to take less 993 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 1: market value because they're winning. If the Cowboys get to 994 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: the point time where they're winning super Bowls, you're going 995 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,359 Speaker 1: to have people who decide, I will come and play 996 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 1: less for you. The great teams have that, the Spurs, 997 00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 1: we see that happen. How about Buggy Cousins going to 998 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:30,080 Speaker 1: Golden State last year making two million bucks making middle 999 00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 1: because he wanted to be a part of it. So 1000 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 1: that's one reason, in one way the Cowboys can be 1001 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 1: good in terms of trying to get guys to come 1002 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 1: and play the lesser value. But your quarterback that's going 1003 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 1: to come in here and take a Walmart TJ Max contract. 1004 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 1: Matter how many super Bowls, no matter how many super 1005 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 1: Bowls you win, you get a new quarterback coming on 1006 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 1: his team. He not taking less money because he thinks 1007 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,040 Speaker 1: that he go win a super bowls him. Who's going 1008 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 1: to win you the super Bowl? This is the position 1009 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: is different outlier, Tom Brady, everybody else money, give it 1010 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,720 Speaker 1: to me. I have a feeling that Dak Prescott's probably 1011 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:05,640 Speaker 1: not gonna show. But Emmett Smith's gala this year, Uh, 1012 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:08,880 Speaker 1: you know he might. That's a good guy. We also 1013 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 1: touched some good guy you but but now you you 1014 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 1: you went to a place. Yeah, that makes him okay. 1015 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:22,440 Speaker 1: This is the public perception. The public perception for people 1016 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:25,840 Speaker 1: is that Dak is being greedy or Dak is not 1017 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: a team player. I watched I watched the clip of 1018 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 1: Dan Patrick, who I enjoyed Dan Patrick's radio show, and 1019 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:33,640 Speaker 1: Dan Patrick is out here to well, you know what, 1020 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 1: if you win a super Bowl there you can you 1021 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 1: can win for so you should take less money and 1022 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:42,719 Speaker 1: you should put people no how about this argument? All right, man, 1023 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,320 Speaker 1: you're making so much money off the field on sponsorships, 1024 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,319 Speaker 1: that you should take less money because you're gonna make 1025 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 1: it up anyway off the field. What does that have 1026 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:55,239 Speaker 1: to do with anything with Jerry Jones and up and 1027 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 1: uh Dak Prescott. But his play on the field, like 1028 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 1: I told you last night, that will be the equal 1029 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:05,839 Speaker 1: to us doing our regular job here right, and our 1030 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 1: bosses are we are on salary, they paying up some money, 1031 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 1: and we decide nine ten o'clock at night, we're gonna 1032 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:14,440 Speaker 1: go drive Uber to make some extra cash. We get 1033 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,399 Speaker 1: back and work the next day, and the boss says, 1034 00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 1: you know what, since you have enough time to go 1035 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:20,919 Speaker 1: drive Uber at nine and ten o'clock, we're just gonna 1036 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 1: pay you less and it is still even out to 1037 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 1: what you was making originally. Anyway, That is crazy or 1038 00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 1: the other thing that I've seen people beat up guys for, Oh, 1039 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,959 Speaker 1: he's so busy out here doing these endorsements and doing 1040 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,719 Speaker 1: this other stuff that he's not concentrating on football. I mean, 1041 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: how many times have people beat up Tony Roman and say, oh, 1042 00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 1: he's golfing, He's out here doing this thing. He doesn't 1043 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 1: care about football. So it's interesting of this gift and 1044 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 1: the curse and you want to say that I am 1045 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:51,719 Speaker 1: a fan of Kristaps Porzingis of the Mavericks. They don't 1046 00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,360 Speaker 1: get this guy unless he had the knee entry. Okay, 1047 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 1: because the projection he was on with the Knicks and 1048 00:53:57,760 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 1: making an All Star team. This is a guy that 1049 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,640 Speaker 1: people were thinking was going to be one of the 1050 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,759 Speaker 1: next sets of young superstars. But he gets hurt and 1051 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 1: then he tells the Knicks he wants out. The Mavericks 1052 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 1: make the trade for him. Mark Cuban paid him a 1053 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 1: franchise record one hundred and fifty eight million dollars over 1054 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 1: the summer. He had yet to play one regular season game. 1055 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 1: I never heard anybody say Mark Cubans should make Chris 1056 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,760 Speaker 1: staus Porzingis go out there and play and prove himself. 1057 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 1: Nobody said Chris stops Porzingis should take less money so 1058 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 1: the Mavericks can go out here sign on them. You 1059 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 1: never heard that. But for some reason, we're beating up Dak. 1060 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,400 Speaker 1: We But but there are a bunch of people beating 1061 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: up Dak on that level here, And I don't get 1062 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 1: it of how a guy who has performed at a 1063 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,279 Speaker 1: high level like Dak Prescott has that has If you 1064 00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:45,880 Speaker 1: go and look at all the metrics. This is a 1065 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,759 Speaker 1: top ten, top twelve quarterback in the NFL last year. 1066 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:50,880 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, and I've said many times before, 1067 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 1: I don't think Dak Prescott had elite coaching when he 1068 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 1: was here. It wasn't no Sean McVay callin plays or 1069 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 1: Sean Payton calling plays around here and running that offense 1070 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:01,399 Speaker 1: as a head coach. Didn't see that there, You didn't 1071 00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 1: see it. Mike McCarthy is an elite play call an 1072 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,520 Speaker 1: elite head coach. So you put Dak Prescott with a 1073 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,360 Speaker 1: guy like McCarthy, I think of what could be. But 1074 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 1: at the same time, let's be honest here. The team 1075 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: could have probably got Dak at thirty thirty million dollars 1076 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,120 Speaker 1: last year. They didn't do it. It's kind of the 1077 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 1: same thing that happened with Tank Lawrence. You could have 1078 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 1: got these guys at a cheaper rate, but you wanted 1079 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 1: to see them play it out. Well, you also wanted 1080 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:30,440 Speaker 1: to pay LC Collins, and you want to pay Jalen Smith. 1081 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 1: You you know, you want to take care of those 1082 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 1: guys who you were talking about. You know, the pie 1083 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 1: how much pies love, Dak won't have to pie all right, 1084 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 1: So you either gonna pay him or you're not. But 1085 00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:44,319 Speaker 1: outside of that, if you are an influential person and 1086 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 1: you are a former player, you do not you do 1087 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:51,439 Speaker 1: not speak on this guy taking first. Don't speak gonna 1088 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 1: take a less money, especially not almost a third like 1089 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 1: seven millions, like seven million dollars, there's nothing seven okay, 1090 00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 1: So seven million in a year. Let's say he wants 1091 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 1: to do a six year deal. You know, look at that. 1092 00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 1: I mean, when you start talking about that, kind of 1093 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,480 Speaker 1: you spaceically saying, hey, man, take a year less salary 1094 00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:10,759 Speaker 1: of what you could be. The franchise tag might be 1095 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 1: thirty three point for me that I read that on 1096 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 1: Pro football talk dot com. So if the franchise tag 1097 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 1: is that, why are you taking twenty eight? That's the 1098 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 1: other thing, like, right, right, do you understand it's been 1099 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,839 Speaker 1: very oh man? And now did you see the two 1100 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 1: tongue of Ioloa interview? Didn't? Okay? So two was talking 1101 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 1: with Steve Wishon said how he was a Cowboy fan 1102 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:34,439 Speaker 1: growing up and then mentioned deal, Oh you know what, man, 1103 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 1: I love to play for Cowboys and he's like and 1104 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 1: then Steve, which is like, you know what, they already 1105 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:40,759 Speaker 1: got a quarter they got da I can back Dack up. 1106 00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 1: You know. So I'm listening to people talking about what 1107 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,360 Speaker 1: if we go get to and I'm sitting here to 1108 00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:50,840 Speaker 1: myself one more time saying, you know, the owner seventy 1109 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:53,879 Speaker 1: seven years old, the owner does not want to go 1110 00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:58,879 Speaker 1: get a hurt quarterback and then developing. Okay, a hurt 1111 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:00,799 Speaker 1: quarter You don't even know what he can do for 1112 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:03,759 Speaker 1: you this year, So let's go draft a hurt quarterback, 1113 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: wait for him to develop, figure out the game. He's 1114 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: not doing that, not when he's got a guy that 1115 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 1: he's liked and he's invested. If Jerry Jones wanted to 1116 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:16,080 Speaker 1: invest the number of years he did in Jason Garrett 1117 00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 1: a decade, you think he's gonna go ahead and dunk 1118 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,080 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott after four years and he's told us all 1119 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: he likes him. I don't know why there are a 1120 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,959 Speaker 1: group of fans who just want Dak Prescott gone out 1121 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 1: of here so bad that they're they're there. I don't 1122 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 1: think they're using logic and even understanding what they're saying 1123 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 1: about the quarterback that they have. Well, a lot of 1124 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 1: people don't usual logic when he comes to situation like this, 1125 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 1: especially fans, and you just got to take it with 1126 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,360 Speaker 1: a grant. It'saw sometimes because sometimes people just don't understand 1127 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 1: the game in the way that you do, or understand 1128 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 1: the way that the front office works like you do 1129 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 1: because you've been around it.

And bring 1167 00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:39,680 Speaker 1: back Amari Cooper and bring back Randall Cobb to go 1168 00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:43,120 Speaker 1: with Michael Gallo. There's no place for Dez Bryant. There's 1169 00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 1: also the issues that Dez Bryant had with certain members 1170 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:49,240 Speaker 1: of this football team on his way out, and he's 1171 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,960 Speaker 1: reiterated on Twitter that would be an issue for him 1172 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 1: to come back.
