23
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,320
Speaker 3: It's it's heavy to one side of the aisle. Okay,

00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 3: just just you know.

26
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 2: How's everybody doing.

27
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 3: How was your week? Here?

28
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 2: Everybody all good, good, We're all good here good. Combine

29
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 2: came and went and h and that'll do it for

30
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: the NFL combine, although apparently we've got a little bit

31
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: of a debate going on.

32
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 3: What's a little bit of.

33
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: A Carneal Tate, the wide receiver for Ohio State. That's

34
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 2: one of the headlines coming out of the combine. So

35
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: Carnell Tate finished within the four point four five four

36
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: point four seven range for his forty according to a

37
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: batch of NFL executives and gms. According to Schefter, but

38
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: that differed from the official time of four to five two.

39
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: So I'm trying to figure out where things.

40
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 3: That's always been a thing, though.

41
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 2: Got sideways. Schefter posted on Sunday morning quote Ohio state

42
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: wide receiver Carnel Tate, a potential top ten pick, was

43
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 2: timed by several NFL executives and GMS on Saturday with

44
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: a forty time in the range of four point four

45
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 2: to five four point four to seven, but the official

46
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 2: time is four point five to two. Now, well, hold on, hold.

47
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 4: On, So did Schefter do this for any other players

48
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 4: at the combine who ran.

49
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: The forty I don't recall, and there was a lot

50
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: that ran it.

51
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, So let me ask you this.

52
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 4: So are we actually saying Brenan Thompson who ran a

53
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 4: four to two six the wide receiver out of Mississippi date?

54
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 4: Does this mean that his was probably faster than that?

55
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 4: Is that what we're saying? Like, how should we look

56
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 4: at the rest of the forty yard dash times? If

57
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 4: Adam Schefter is opening up Pandora's box, that apparently the

58
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 4: official times aren't all that accurate since some of the

59
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 4: teams do.

60
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 3: Their own, or most of the teams do their own.

61
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 4: There you go, and yet their times were like half

62
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 4: a second faster.

63
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: You'll get like two or three different times, but the

64
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 3: official time is generally always the slowest of all the

65
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: times that are recorded.

66
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 4: I know you think we're being serious, LeVar, but we

67
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 4: are not. So this segment is more about Adam Schefter

68
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 4: than anything else.

69
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean I picked up on the fact

70
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 3: that you said he didn't do it with anyone else,

71
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: So okay, well go ahead, how about it.

72
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 4: That's kind of my general point is as I look

73
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 4: at what's all transpired in the past few months, and

74
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 4: people need to understand this. You know, Disney bought into

75
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 4: the ownership of the NFL, all right, their media properties.

76
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 3: They're working hand in hand in some ways.

77
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 4: I would say, you know, the Super Bowl, since it

78
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 4: was NBC's it wasn't really their opportunity to I guess,

79
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 4: shine or potentially reveal what that relationship looks like. But

80
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 4: now we have one of the first instances where Adam

81
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 4: Scheffer doing something, which, mind you, I don't recall him

82
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,679
Speaker 4: really doing before either, Like I know he's always reported

83
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 4: on different things that have come up with players, But

84
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: to take a stance where you're essentially tweating about only

85
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 4: one player specifically who, And again I don't want to

86
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 4: get into in the weeds and all this because you know,

87
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 4: as far as the forty dash yard dash times go,

88
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 4: I remember, do you guys remember when Tybreek Wohlan ran it,

89
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 4: and he actually ran the fastest at that time, But

90
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 4: they rolled it back right they took they made the

91
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 4: official time actually slower to like a four to two seven,

92
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 4: four to two eight. And I know the trainer who

93
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 4: is training some of those guys. And by the way,

94
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 4: Matt Gates at XPE and him and Tony Vallani, they

95
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 4: have some of the fastest players every single year who

96
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 4: run in these and so it's part of how they

97
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 4: make their name. And I remember him coming to me

98
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 4: and I asked him and said, what was the explanation

99
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 4: for that?

100
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: And He's like, there really wasn't.

101
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 4: And they did that with some other players too, where

102
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 4: the official time actually was, you know, being rolled back

103
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,559
Speaker 4: from what they initially showed. And so maybe that needs

104
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 4: some sort of explanation. But what I kind of see

105
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 4: when I when I first saw this was all right,

106
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 4: he's doing a favor for the agent, but also he's

107
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 4: doing a favor for the NFL. Because Carnel Tates viewed

108
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 4: as a top ten pick. The only thing that would

109
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 4: potentially hold him back would be saying, oh, he's not

110
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 4: quite explosive or fast enough, which if you watch the

111
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 4: tape and you watch him play, you're not concerned about that.

112
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 4: It's one of the reasons why I never put stock

113
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 4: in the combine anyway, but the fact that Schefter would

114
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 4: do it, it's revealing to this, to the fact that

115
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 4: there's now this relationship between ESPN and the NFL where

116
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 4: he's gonna be that mouthpiece to try to make things

117
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 4: seem like, okay, this is you know, we don't want

118
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 4: to scare guys off from coming here in the future

119
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 4: if they happen to run slow, when really he was

120
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 4: like the only guy who ran slow. It was a

121
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 4: historical year and guys running fast. So God, are the

122
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,919
Speaker 4: days of someone just having a bad start. God are

123
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 4: the days of anyone like performing bad say hey, you

124
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 4: know what, I'll run better my pro day. No, we're

125
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 4: just gonna make excuses or put out tweets like this

126
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 4: to try to you know, buddy buddy up with the

127
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 4: agent and make sure that we don't hurt players coming

128
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 4: here in the future. Like that's where this is going now.

129
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 4: That's unfortunately how the combine is. It's not as much

130
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 4: suspense as it.

131
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 3: Used to be. I like it. I like I like

132
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 3: the phoniness, I like the catering to I like it.

133
00:06:54,279 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 3: It's it's one big hodgepodge of brand building. I have

134
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 3: the thought process of go do the combine, don't put

135
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 3: too much. If I'm a player, I'm not putting too

136
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 3: much into what my performance is. I'm gonna relax. I'm

137
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 3: gonna do what I need to do because the work

138
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 3: has already been done. If you're outside of my interview,

139
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 3: that's it. Outside of my interview. If you're gonna judge

140
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 3: what I can do, awfle what I did at the

141
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 3: combine and not my body of work, then that's a

142
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 3: decision that you gotta make. And you weren't meant to

143
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 3: draft me, and I wasn't meant to be drafted by you.

144
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 3: But what I would be focused in on is making

145
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 3: sure that I take full advantage of the spotlight in

146
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 3: the megaphone that is on the NFL Combine. This is

147
00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 3: more of an age and the era of building your brand.

148
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 3: I mean, we hear name, image and likeness at nauseum.

149
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 3: For college, it really does mean your name and your

150
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 3: image and your likeness. So if you're going to the combine,

151
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 3: go with a plan, have a plan on how you're

152
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 3: going to maximize your conversations with the media. What you

153
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: want your message to b what you want it to

154
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 3: be all those different things, because to me, that's what

155
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 3: this all is about. Brand building for for Adam Schefter,

156
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 3: like he gets to to get inside information, brand building

157
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 3: for gms or coaches just fall asleep. You get to

158
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 3: create a different element to how they view you. You know,

159
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 3: you've you've had that's brand building. You've added to your brand.

160
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know what that is. I mean

161
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 3: sometimes superheroes get tired. There you go. There's always an

162
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 3: opportunity to maximize on what you do. So right, he

163
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 3: might not be the coach of the Jets anymore, but

164
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 3: you know then you have more time what is mattress.

165
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 2: But the problem though, is that if it's clear that

166
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 2: one of the insiders or reporters has an agenda or

167
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 2: is being fed like all of a sudden, it's hard

168
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 2: to take the event seriously if you know that people

169
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 2: are filtering information out there to try and make results

170
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: different than.

171
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 3: What Isn't that what insider is supposed to give you

172
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 3: the information that people on inside are giving.

173
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 2: It's a time you can you start it and stop it.

174
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,959
Speaker 2: There should be no agenda attached. It is what it is.

175
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 2: And he's coming out with different times now.

176
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 3: Because there's always different times there is.

177
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 4: Every team keeps their own own times. But I would

178
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 4: also say for them to then come out and not

179
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 4: why do not give Brent Thompson's hand times then if

180
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 4: those are probably gonna be closer to the record at

181
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 4: four two one four two to like somewhere in that ballpark,

182
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 4: because that's how far off we're talking about the official

183
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 4: time was to some of the reported handtimes that he had,

184
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 4: why not report that? I mean, that's the issue that

185
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 4: I have with it is if you're Adam Schefter and

186
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 4: you're trying to represent ESPN or the NFL and you are,

187
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 4: let's just call what it is like the go to insider,

188
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 4: you have an obligation to the public too. To me,

189
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 4: this isn't about brand building. This is kind of like

190
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 4: where we are right now with our media, our news media.

191
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 4: And I'm not trying to go into the news media

192
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 4: venture of that, but I think we all would would agree.

193
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 4: I mean, it depends on which side they're talking from,

194
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 4: Like everything's manipulated, everything like there can't ever just be hey,

195
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 4: this is what his time was. There's a thought that

196
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 4: some people had him faster on handtimes and then explain

197
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 4: the fact that most teams have scouts, have coaches whoever

198
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 4: hand timing them to because they want to have a

199
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 4: database of their own times. And one of the reasons

200
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 4: they want to have a database of their own times

201
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 4: is because every single year the official timer some of

202
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 4: that stuff could change. And I said to you before,

203
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 4: guys who are in this industry where they basically train

204
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 4: these guys for six to eight to ten weeks and

205
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 4: turn them into track athletes, they are more in two

206
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 4: with it than anyone. I mean, they're the ones that

207
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 4: are watching these guys run a preliminary forty and then

208
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 4: as they train, watching the splits, watching the numbers from then,

209
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 4: and so.

210
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 3: They know what these guys can hit.

211
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 4: And so when they have a series of guys who

212
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 4: aren't hitting those numbers even though they've been training for

213
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 4: the past two months to two and a half months,

214
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 4: they know that there's probably something off with the equipment.

215
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 4: Because all these guys are highly invested.

216
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 3: In all this.

217
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 4: But the point is, like schefter has an obligation, at

218
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 4: least in my mind, to be able to provide information

219
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 4: to people in a manner that isn't going to be manipulated.

220
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 4: And unfortunately, like we as an audience have now grown

221
00:11:55,559 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 4: accustomed to all these agents feeding these insiders with whatever

222
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 4: they want to say. I mean, how many times do

223
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 4: we say a tweet that was like had like a

224
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 4: copy and paste you know, section that wasn't edited off.

225
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 4: Oh still happens, And it's it's crazy to me that,

226
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 4: like there's no checks and balances of this.

227
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 3: It's like, all right, well, is this what's good? I mean,

228
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 3: and obviously with sports, so we don't.

229
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 4: Take it as seriously as we do with other things,

230
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 4: but it exists in other realms of our life right now.

231
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 4: So I looked at that and I thought that was

232
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 4: that was one of the things that stood out to

233
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 4: me as far as and I'd love to see what

234
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 4: the ratings are because I'm sure they're not hitting what

235
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 4: they used to. Maybe with the new data and big

236
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 4: panel rating system, they'll prop it up somehow, but it's

237
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 4: losing its luster. It's not what it once was. And

238
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 4: I think part of that's the fact that you just

239
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 4: it kind of is what it is, and the NFL

240
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 4: never really figured out how to, you know, continue to

241
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 4: make this thing grow, and so you know that you're

242
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 4: you're trying to do all you can with it, and

243
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 4: one of those things is making sure that they get

244
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 4: the top players to come to the copy and perform.

245
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: And by having Carnel Tate's back as agents back, that's

246
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 4: one way of doing it. For the future is guys saying, hey,

247
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 4: if you go there and even if you don't perform

248
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,959
Speaker 4: that great, We'll make sure we got you covered. I

249
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 4: mean even and now, look, maybe this is just Daniel,

250
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 4: because Daniels are super nice guy, but even the analysis

251
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 4: for the most part, has become super kind. And I'm

252
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 4: not saying that like Mike Mayock. Mike Mayock and Daniel

253
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 4: Jeremi are not the same guy obviously, but it seems

254
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 4: like even the conversation around the performances are super kind

255
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 4: and kind of soft, and if there's a misthrow, it's, well,

256
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 4: this is the combat. It's hard to get timing down

257
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 4: with these guys. It didn't used to be that way,

258
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 4: and so I feel like even the conversation around their

259
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 4: performance has changed as far as how critical guys are

260
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 4: going to be.

261
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I mean, things that matter now didn't matter

262
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:02,439
Speaker 3: too much before. People's emotions y'all, y'all made fun of me,

263
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 3: like talking about the whole Anthony Richardson thing. But it's real.

264
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, these kids are they rapped differently. Man.

265
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 3: They are different people and the culture and the society

266
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 3: that is.

267
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 2: Being being catered to and being entertained.

268
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 3: Play out this scenario. You're saying, if he just pulled

269
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,119
Speaker 3: up at the thirty yard line of the forty yard dash.

270
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 4: They were still talking behind it, take me out. They

271
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 4: find that was an incredible thirty yard dash.

272
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 2: Chef, chef, Yes, exactly what I'm saying. It's the greatest

273
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 2: thirty yard dash of all Because.

274
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 3: The sensitivities, the sensitivities that these young men have are

275
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 3: also it has to be an adapt an adaptive approach

276
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 3: by the agents and the agencies, so they're in turn

277
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 3: going to become touch sensitive and very sensitive about how

278
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 3: things are handled as well. It's a it's a it's

279
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 3: a trickle down effect. I'm telling you, these dudes are

280
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: different men. It's a different day and age.

281
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 4: Me say the quote tough times making tough dudes.

282
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 3: Tough times make tough dude, or hard times make tough dudes,

283
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 3: tough dudes, make easier times, easier times make what is it?

284
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 3: Make makes soft dudes soft dudes? Make hard times repeat

285
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 3: the process. It's something like that, maybe we're maybe we're

286
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 3: in that cycle somewhere, but we might be in the

287
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 3: cycle of of my dad walk to work. They're are

288
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 3: going to get a lot harder. You know, granddad walk

289
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 3: to work or great granddad walked to work, granddad drove

290
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 3: a Caddy to work, Dad drove h I don't know,

291
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 3: range drover. I drove a Lamborghini. My son will walk

292
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 3: to work. Like the whole process, it just it's it's

293
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 3: kind of soft these days. It's kind of soft. It's

294
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 3: also very catering, very catering culture.

295
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 2: You know, you mentioned you know in other you know,

296
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 2: news outlets, media, whatever, you know, the agenda, the pushing

297
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 2: a narrative. It's kind of insulting to a listener or

298
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 2: a viewer when they don't want to just give you

299
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: the information and let you sort it out and let

300
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 2: you figure out which side you fall on or what

301
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 2: your opinion is. They want to guide you along in

302
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 2: the process. This is how you should feel about it.

303
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 2: This is this is why you should feel this way

304
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 2: about it. No, how about these are just combine times

305
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 2: and results and you just give us the information, the

306
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 2: factual information. And let's just play this down the middle

307
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 2: and then we decide moving forward how we feel about

308
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 2: something and when it comes to this event, and if

309
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 2: that's basically what it is, it's turned into a TV show.

310
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,479
Speaker 2: I don't know about you, guys, but I can remember

311
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 2: when you were drafted, and I can remember watching from

312
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: that side of it and looking at it and going

313
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 2: it didn't feel like a TV show. It felt like

314
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 2: teams in the league trying to get better, and there

315
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: was a lot of great players like yourselves who were

316
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 2: providing organizations hope. There was no agenda being pushed, there

317
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 2: was no like, there was nothing an insider trying to

318
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,400
Speaker 2: get one guy's information out there over somebody else's because

319
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,239
Speaker 2: he's buddy buddy with an agent. It was just a

320
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 2: draft so that teams could get better and players could

321
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 2: realize their dreams. And now it's a TV show, a

322
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 2: three day TV show that moves around the country, and

323
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 2: that's awesome, But I find it I found myself less

324
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 2: interested in this combine this year than I have in recently.

325
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 3: You just have to want to be interested, though, you

326
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 3: gotta want to be interested for what you're interested.

327
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: But if it's not on the up and up. Why

328
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 2: would I want to be interested?

329
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 3: I mean, there's only so much up and up you

330
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 3: can get, Okay, you know, if you're watching it for

331
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 3: a pure entertainment value. If a dude jumped tu he

332
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 3: jumped high.

333
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 2: I mean, at least WWE's transparent around about it, like, hey,

334
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:56,959
Speaker 2: this is what it is.

335
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 3: It is entertainment, Okay, exactly. It is the same thing.

336
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 3: Though the NFL is the same thing as the WWE.

337
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 2: All right, but it shouldn't be.

338
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 3: But it is.

339
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 2: That's a problem.

340
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 3: But it isn't a problem because you feel as though

341
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 3: it should be you. You have invested in emotion and

342
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 3: what you think it should be. That means you've exercised

343
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 3: some ownership over how you feel about what they're doing.

344
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 3: Didn't they have a wellness coach speaking all it? Didn't

345
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 3: I have like a happy coach, a nice coach for

346
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl or this year that they made it

347
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 3: a point to advertise about, like we have a wellness

348
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 3: coach or whatever.

349
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 2: Nice, be nice to the people person for.

350
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,719
Speaker 4: That just because it was in San Francisco, though, Like

351
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 4: what I mean, he bro.

352
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,120
Speaker 3: You know, you know, when you were having a segment

353
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 3: like this, it does make you start to think about

354
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 3: was it was it intentional for the super Bowl to

355
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 3: be in San Francisco this year? It was a time

356
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 3: like that.

357
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 4: I remember the super Bowl in New York. It would

358
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 4: not have been like that. I think you would agree. Yeah,

359
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 4: I mean they'd have a guy being like get them away.

360
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 5: Hey, hey, shut that up, forget about it. Go kick

361
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 5: gay go yeah, go to the Telli right there. Yeah,

362
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 5: get out of here, like listen, I'm just saying. And

363
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 5: that was maybe a different time in our culture, in

364
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 5: our society, Like I don't think for two seconds that

365
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 5: that wasn't a thought process. And where the super Bowl

366
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 5: was this year and more and more thinking about it

367
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 5: and the agendas that are are very very front of mine,

368
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 5: very front and center. You know, the whole equality you know,

369
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 5: the the letters, the whole LGB, T.

370
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 3: Q R S. Listen. I don't know all the letters,

371
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 3: but LG, l G TB anyway, the whole, the whole

372
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 3: agenda of all talking about the whole agenda of all

373
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 3: of these different groups not touching it. Hey, listen, there

374
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:08,439
Speaker 3: are there are cultural implications to not doing things the

375
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 3: right way. Hey, what what are have in the back

376
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 3: of what are having the back of end zones all

377
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 3: year and they continued to do it the back of

378
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 3: alment changing. Yeah, it's interesting, there is.

379
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 4: It's like those tweets where something happens, someone tweets something

380
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 4: out it immediately changes the situation.

381
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 3: There's a culture shift that's would Bet just put up

382
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 3: a hashtag?

383
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 4: I think And by the way, I don't want to

384
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 4: get this confused or mixed with the fact that I

385
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 4: love Carnell Tate.

386
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a great receiver in the NFL.

387
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 4: I could care less about his forty yard dashtime because

388
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,679
Speaker 4: I watch him play. I know he can separate. I

389
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,919
Speaker 4: know it can take the top off a defense. I

390
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 4: know it can get it done. By the way, for

391
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,720

Speaker 2: Rack's been helping customers by the right tires for how,

435
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,920

Speaker 2: Mobile Tire Installation TIRA. The way tire buying should be

438
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 2: coming up here. In a little over fifteen minutes from now,

439
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 2: we're going to tell you about shots fired, shots fired

440
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 2: at somebody that we all grew up watching play all right,

441
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 2: so you're going to hear those controversial comments coming up

442
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 2: here again. A little over fifteen minutes from now. But

443
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 2: speaking of Minnesota and the Minnesota Timberwolves, over to the

444
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 2: Minnesota Vikings, who are making moves. They are making moves now.

445
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 2: These moves aren't official yet, but they have informed a

446
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 2: couple of players currently on their roster that they will

447
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 2: probably most likely not be on their roster very much longer.

448
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 2: Those two would be Aaron Jones and Javon Hargrave. The

449
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: Vikings have informed both that, barring a trade, they will

450
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 2: be released later this month. It will free up eighteen

451
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 2: plus million dollars in cap space that to go along

452
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 2: with whatever their plan is at quarterback to bring in

453
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 2: competition aka take the job from JJ McCarthy. The Minnesota

454
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 2: Vikings appear to be wheeling and dealing, thus far out

455
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,959
Speaker 2: of it, out with the GM and in with a

456
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 2: brand new roster they're hoping with.

457
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 4: What's interesting about this is, you know, it's not atypical

458
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 4: to see a team, you know, try to have some

459
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 4: cap savings and restructure the roster or they move on

460
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 4: from a general manager. So if you recall, Quasi Dopomensa

461
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 4: was fired at the end of January. However, they haven't

462
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 4: hired to do general manager, have they No.

463
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 2: There was somebody who was the interm.

464
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 4: So I believe that their executive vice president Rob Brazinski

465
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 4: is actually handling the operations as of now. But what

466
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 4: makes that interesting is is just how much power now

467
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 4: maybe Kevin O'Connell has, you know.

468
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 3: That's what it kind of signs to me, is as.

469
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 4: Much as this is a move where you're probably going

470
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 4: to do so anyway, I do wonder if you look

471
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 4: at the structure of the Vikings organization, were some of

472
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 4: those players, maybe players that Quisy do Fomenso spent on,

473
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 4: and and maybe Kevin O'Connell was saying, hey, man, like

474
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 4: that's not where a spinning should be. You know, we

475
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 4: should be spending in other positions edge rusher, wide receiver dB,

476
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 4: you know, looking for a quarterback like we missed out

477
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 4: on Sam Darnold.

478
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 3: He just won a Super Bowl at the Seahawks.

479
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,679
Speaker 4: So maybe there were some conversations that were had that

480
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 4: you know, again led to Quissi Adopha Mensas firing. But

481
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 4: also now some of these decisions as they're trying to

482
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 4: restructure their cap and get back to a better place

483
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 4: to build back up and some of the names rumored

484
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 4: to you know, come in there, compete Kyler Murray, Geno

485
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 4: Smith or two that I saw, and I think it

486
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 4: would make a lot of sense. I think every quarterback,

487
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 4: by the way, who is looking at trying to revamp

488
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 4: their career or or you know, try to improve, you

489
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 4: know from here moving forward and kind of grow and

490
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 4: get better.

491
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 3: It helps to.

492
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 4: Have Kevin O'Connell, and it sure as heck helps to

493
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 4: have Justin Jefferson. So I'm sure that's a number one

494
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 4: one of the top spots for a team that you

495
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 4: could say they got jaj McCarthy, But it feels like

496
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 4: they're looking for something that you could go restart your

497
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 4: career again.

498
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 3: I don't know what they're going to do at at

499
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 3: the running backs position. I mean, right now, it looks

500
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 3: as though they have what Jordan Mason that that will

501
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 3: I guess lead the way and then ty Ty Chandler.

502
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,199
Speaker 3: I think there are bigger issues here with the Vikings

503
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 3: than what may be perceived outside of it just being

504
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 3: about JJ McCarthy. I don't know if we've seen and listen,

505
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 3: I get all of the positive talk you got you

506
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 3: got to coach that that has done well with multiple

507
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,120
Speaker 3: journeyman quarterbacks, but it just hasn't seemed to work out

508
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 3: with nine. You just you're coming off of a season

509
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 3: where it was the poor season for Jordans, I mean

510
00:26:53,960 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 3: for Justin's uh, Justin Smith and Justin Jefferson excuse me, uh?

511
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 3: And I mean where was Jordan Addison? Did he have

512
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 3: a good year this year? I'm not sure if he

513
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 3: had a good.

514
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 2: He missed the uh.

515
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 3: I know he was suspended for the first part, but

516
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 3: that whole fall a sleep outside the airport drunk, I

517
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 3: just set the set the tone for the season. I

518
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 3: just think that I think they slept walk through this season,

519
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 3: and I don't know. Again, I always think back to

520
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 3: to what coach Campbell said and speaking of the lines

521
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 3: like listen, you don't ever know if you're ever going

522
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 3: to make it back this far again, so you try

523
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 3: to take advantage of it as best you can. I

524
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 3: don't know that the Vikings are going to bounce back

525
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 3: or regroup and be a better team. They might have

526
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 3: had their opportunity where we considered them one of the

527
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 3: top teams in the league. They did really well with

528
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 3: Darnold at the helm, and that might have been their moment. Again,

529
00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 3: there's question marks on the center's position, there's there going

530
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 3: to be there. They're a little thin at the linebacker's position.

531
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 3: They got some decent edge guys, but they they got

532
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 3: to have depth there. I mean, there there are question marks.

533
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 3: Can door saw return back to uh to to the

534
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 3: to the you know form that he was before his injuries.

535
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 3: It's just to me, I feel like there's a lot

536
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 3: of questions and it's not just uh JJ McCarthy or

537
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 3: somebody comes in and fixes it. I'm not so sure

538
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 3: that even if they you know, Kyler Murray comes in whatever, man,

539
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 3: I'm not sure that they returned back to being the

540
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 3: type of team we saw them look like when Darnold

541
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 3: was the was the starter.

542
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 2: The thing that makes it tricky to assess the vikings

543
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 2: is that it's not like they were bad last year.

544
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 2: I think they won their last five, they finished with

545
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 2: nine wins. It's not that they were an awful team.

546
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 2: And yet they've they're going out making all these moves

547
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 2: and firing their GM because yeah, it does feel like

548
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 2: there's sort of a hey, that was a quasy guy,

549
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 2: that was him, that was his guy, you know, and

550
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 2: he's got to go, and we're going to now take

551
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 2: over and kind of move this thing in a different direction.

552
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 2: And I look at the JJ McCarthy situation, I go,

553
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 2: I think he might be in the worst spot of

554
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 2: any starting quarterback in the league because everybody wants that

555
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 2: team as far as quarterbacks go, every quarterback available would

556
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 2: want that team. Yet that team doesn't want JJ McCarthy,

557
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 2: so they're looking around for an answer outside the building

558
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 2: when it was his for the taking. And it feels

559
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 2: and Kevin O'Connell made the point, and because there was

560
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,479
Speaker 2: this report that came out last year that Diana Rossini said, well,

561
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 2: they're going to go with JJ McCarthy because they feel

562
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 2: like they have a three year window to compete, a

563
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 2: three year window to win a Super Bowl. And Kevin

564
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 2: O'Connell said, I think at the combine last week something

565
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: along the lines of, yeah, listen, the timelines have changed

566
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 2: a little bit, which sounded to me like, yeah, we

567
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 2: got to find an answer quarterback and we don't have

568
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,080
Speaker 2: one in the building. And it sucks he was in

569
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 2: injured and that's unfortunate, but we just don't have an

570
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 2: answer there and we're going to go in a different direction.

571
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 4: I can tell you this much from what I know

572
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 4: that he wasn't the quarterback that they wanted in that

573
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 4: draft class.

574
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 3: They they you know, they were looking at Drake May.

575
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 4: There's there's a few guys that they really really liked,

576
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 4: and they were trying to move heaven and earth to

577
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 4: go get them, and he kind of fell to a

578
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 4: spot where they're like, okay, like we'll take him on.

579
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 4: But they knew bringing him on there was going to

580
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 4: be some developmental time needed in order for him to

581
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 4: become the player that they thought it maybe could be.

582
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 4: So I wonder how much then, especially after Sam Dartl's

583
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 4: here there, if they looked at that and said again

584
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 4: going back to the relationship between Kevin O'Connor and quisi

585
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 4: Udo Flamensa, and this happens a lot of times, but

586
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 4: you kind of have to connect the dots. Once decisions

587
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 4: are made and one gets fired. One stays is you know,

588
00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 4: he wasn't supplying Kevin O'Connor what he wanted or listening

589
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 4: to them and maybe giving them, you know, other players,

590
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 4: and then kind of building a roster that wasn't in

591
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 4: the vision of what Kevin O'Connell had. Whatever the case

592
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 4: may be, it sounds like there was a lot of

593
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 4: frustration watching Darnald go win a Super Bowl, watching JJ

594
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 4: McCarthy struggle, and seeing other guys continue to flourish. Drake

595
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 4: May he was a part of obviously the MVP conversation

596
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 4: this season. Uh, you know, he gets his team to

597
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl, Like I think that, you know, as

598
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 4: the playoffs started to ensue, probably was a breaking point

599
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 4: for that relationship, as in, like, hey, dude, I told

600
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 4: you about two guys that I wanted. You didn't get either,

601
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 4: and now look where they're playing, and imagine them on

602
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 4: our roster. What our season could have been, given that

603
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 4: we were nine and eight, we weren't necessarily you know.

604
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:44,239
Speaker 3: That far out of it.

605
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 4: We could have been right there if we just would

606
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 4: have gotten a chance to get into the playoffs. So

607
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 4: I I and then look, I'm not sure that Minnesota

608
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,959
Speaker 4: you know, beats either the Rams or the Seahawks in

609
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 4: this past year's you know, playoff run. But at the

610
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 4: end of the day, I could see the frustration from

611
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 4: Kevin O'Connell if that was the disagreement. And oftentimes when

612
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 4: you don't have one that's overseeing all of it, I mean, hey, ultimately,

613
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 4: whatever decision the general manager makes, it has to be

614
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 4: in the eyes of Kevin O'Connell and what he's trying

615
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 4: to build and the vision he has for his team.

616
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 3: To me, it's it's never gonna work.

617
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 2: I mean, And also the fact that Kevin O'Connell does

618
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 2: have that much power. I would be okay with that

619
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 2: if I was if I was a Vikings fan, knowing like, hey,

620
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 2: this is they basically chose, right, they basically chose all right,

621
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 2: If this relationship between Quesia Dopamnza and Kevin O'Connell, if

622
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 2: we've got to pick one, we're gonna pick Kevin O'Connell.

623
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 2: So it wouldn't make sense that he would be the

624
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 2: guy that would be the main decision maker, maybe not

625
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: by title, but maybe influence on roster decisions moving forward.

626
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 3: And by the way, I think that's fair, right.

627
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 4: I mean, he's got a six thirty two win percentage

628
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 4: in his first four years as a head coach. He's

629
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 4: had three or four winning season, has been to the

630
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 4: playoffs two of those years, won the division once. I mean,

631
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 4: he's he's been everything that I think they'd hope for.

632
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 4: And I think if if you keep supplying him with

633
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 4: what he wants, I think they look at it and say, yeah,

634
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 4: we can, like we can do even more.

635
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 3: It's I think they got to do more though, if

636
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 3: he doesn't, If he doesn't do more this year as

637
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 3: the head coach, I think this is a big year

638
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 3: for him. And listen, I mean he's in the hot seat.

639
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 3: If they don't win this year, yeah, I don't. I

640
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 3: don't know that he gets out. I'm not saying hot

641
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 3: seat fire after He's not coming back. No, he's coming back.

642
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 3: He's coming back. I think this is a critical year

643
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,959
Speaker 3: for him as the head coach of this team. I

644
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 3: mean he's he's clearly got a nice record going. He's

645
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 3: got a good, good rapport. People like him, people believe

646
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 3: in what he does. But he hasn't had success in

647
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 3: the playoffs, and he has a fallse sup of the

648
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 3: combine either. I think that helps well. I mean some

649
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 3: would say he fell asleep and his appearances in the playoffs,

650
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 3: dam I mean he wasn't awake a sleep at the wheel.

651
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 3: All I'm saying is, I think this is now that

652
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 3: you have made way by getting rid of the GM.

653
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 3: The poor year falls on the GM, as we've all discussed,

654
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,280
Speaker 3: but now you have to assume that now that spotlight

655
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,439
Speaker 3: goes on to the head coach and what the head

656
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 3: coach does, and I think that this will be imperative

657
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 3: for him, very critical for him to have successful what

658
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 3: he does this year. I don't know how you make

659
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 3: you if you feel good about the running back room

660
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 3: that you have right now. I guess you get rid

661
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,280
Speaker 3: of Aaron Jones. I like Aaron Jones. Maybe he's deteriorating,

662
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 3: maybe he's to the point now where he can't be

663
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 3: good enough. But I think you got to have a

664
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 3: good back or two. You gotta have a good back

665
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 3: or two. The quarterback is a question mark. I don't

666
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 3: think Whence steps in is the guy. I don't think

667
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 3: that you find a guy that's going to make your

668
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 3: team that much better better in free agency. I don't

669
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 3: think it's a Kyler Murray that makes your team magically better.

670
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 3: I just I don't know how he makes his team

671
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 3: better than what it was. Where do you find a center?

672
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 3: You know, if you don't get your center resigned, where

673
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 3: do you get a new center? I just you know.

674
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of question marks to me

675
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 3: for this Vikings team, and it would be interesting to

676
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:30,360
Speaker 3: see if O'Connell and Company can actually pull things together

677
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 3: and go back in the direction that they were going

678
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 3: in when we saw them with Sam Darnold.

679

723
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 3: I like envision Jim Carrey esque, like you look like

724
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 3: Jim Carretty.

725
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 2: You see him over the weekend. I think it was

726
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 2: from over the weekend. There's some people that are thinking

727
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 2: that maybe that's not Jim Carrey, it's somebody portraying Jim Carrey.

728
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, wild stuff out there.

729
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 3: So that's a whole thing with in Living color people

730
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 3: because they did that with Jamie Fox when he had

731
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 3: his health issue, right.

732
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, listen, some stuff out there, man, interesting

733
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 2: wild times. All right, So from Jim Carrey stunt double.

734
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,720
Speaker 2: By the way, that is not Jim Carrey.

735
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 3: There's no way that's Jim Carrey. Show me.

736
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 4: I'm all sending you the link. I'm looking at. This

737
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 4: doesn't look anything like him. You got to you gotta

738
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 4: scroll down. But that doesn't I mean, if they're trying

739
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 4: to hide the fact that they're trying to hide Jim

740
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 4: carry or have someone else stand in like, they're not

741
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 4: doing a good job because this guy is terrible. Although

742
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 4: now that I think about it, like looking at this.

743
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,760
Speaker 4: It makes me think there's a few things. Joe Biden.

744
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 4: I was like, wait a second, I told you that

745
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 4: Joe Biden was a I. I told y'all that I

746
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 4: don't know about AI. There's people were there in person

747
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 4: remote control, brouh. He has a little alien you know,

748
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 4: you remember, like uh men in black.

749
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 2: He also grew, which was weird.

750
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, he got a lot taller.

751
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 2: Well, isn't that Jim Carrey.

752
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,799
Speaker 3: The guy on the right, he has scroll.

753
00:39:50,520 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 4: Down his watch on X. That's him. No chance, you

754
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 4: must be being a contrariance. That's what you think. There's

755
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:05,479
Speaker 4: no chance that's Jim Carre.

756
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 2: I just sent you another one bar. That's all I'm

757
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 2: looking at. That ain't him, man, That ain't him. Man.

758
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 3: That's not him.

759
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 2: Either that or whoever his surgeon is. His voice does

760
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 2: that's what it is? Different eye color, everything.

761
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 4: Maybe his Maybe it's an altered it's an altered photo,

762
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 4: like you guys, a video.

763
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,400
Speaker 3: I don't know what you're watching. I'm watching a video.

764
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 2: Maybe his surgeon was Aaron Glenn at the combine and

765
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:35,760
Speaker 2: he woke up halfway.

766
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 3: Him and Tom Brady had the same person they go

767
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,919
Speaker 3: to see for their facials. We're doing that.

768
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:48,439
Speaker 2: Damn, We're doing that, all right.

769
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 3: Sometimes I feel like I'm not looking at Tom Brady.

770
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 3: I'm just being honest. Well, man, this is a Tom

771
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 3: Brady I used to look out of eye on the

772
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 3: football fields, not to Tom Brady that I'll be seeing

773
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 3: when I'm watching day games being called by him. Just

774
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 3: I'm just being honest. Sorry, hey man, they stubbed him out.

00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 2: Look. Uh hey, Jim Brewers said the same thing about

00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:27,440

781
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 2: I thought it was a little bit.

782
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 8: Weight.

783
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 3: It's not only the losing weight part, but people really

00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 3: have gotten into the whole peptides and you know t

Speaker 2: You look different. I saw my mom.

Speaker 2: Mall walks, Yes, they do walk them all.

800
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 3: I didn't know that. I didn't know that was the thing.

801
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 3: They walked them all like before, like it opens. But

802
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 3: it's it's not like the stores aren't open and people

803
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 3: walk them all.

804
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 2: Just breeze right by that cinebunon right when they first

805
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 2: come out. How many laps they do?

806
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,360
Speaker 3: I don't know. My dad's not walking that great anymore.

807
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 3: They're getting older, you know, imagine that being an old

808
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,720
Speaker 3: ass man walking with no le cat prosthetics.

809
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 2: Oh, they getting old man. Jonahs needs help?

810
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 3: What do you mean? Jonahs needs help? And that's and

811
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 3: that's Jim Carrey. I don't care what y'all say.

812
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 2: I sent you more, Brady. It's not out of trying,

813
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 2: all right.

814
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 4: I've always seen one. Lorenda must be on a different

815
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 4: text thread because I'm not seeing any of this, but

816
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 4: the one I saw the audio nothing, Man, that's not him.

817
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 4: That's not him, eye color, the voice, I mean, the

818
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 4: cheek bones, they put something in there.

819
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 3: It's him.

820
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 2: I mean it's a shame. You can't just be reckless

821
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,240
Speaker 2: and say, hey, man, you know the guy's are drugging.

822
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 3: Didn't he get away from the whole scene and all that?

823
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 2: I think? So, so, how's her drug addict?

824
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:46,759
Speaker 3: Well?

825
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 2: No, I mean, but you don't have to be in

826
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 2: the scene to be a drug addict. I mean it

827
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 2: could be. I'm just saying I think that the scene's

828
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 2: part of where it happens. I'm just saying it's you know,

829
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,959
Speaker 2: you can't just be reckless about it. We can't blame

830
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 2: on that he's been hijacked by artificial intelligence and he

831
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:09,280
Speaker 2: was secretly cloned.

832
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that guy. I mean, if you're if you're

833
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:15,280
Speaker 3: trying to save your look or your youth or whatever

834
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 3: it is that these cats in Hollywood be trying to do,

835
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess that's a compliment.

836
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,359
Speaker 2: A Ted Williams was ahead of his time. Man, try

837
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 2: to put everybody up on that frozen head game.

838
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: Bro.

839
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,839
Speaker 2: We freeze the head. Him and Mickey are many Who.

840
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 3: Was first, Walt Disney or Ted Williams.

841
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 2: I don't know. By the way, Walt Disney, I'd love

842
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 2: to see what his lungs look like.

843
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 4: He was a smoker. People were gone, dude. I think

844
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 4: it was just as head they kept right.

845
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: God, yeah, we can't not keeping those lungs look like

846
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:45,920
Speaker 2: punching bags.

847
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 3: I mean, in theory, if they are able to bring

848
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 3: back them wild horses. Like I was at the San

849
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 3: Diego Zoo and we were doing the safari right, and

850
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 3: they were like, those are wild horses, Like whatever they are,

851
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 3: whatever they were recreate, they were cloned, recreated from the

852
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 3: DNA of wild horses. They were extinct. They brought dire

853
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,840
Speaker 3: wolves back, they brought the wild horses back. What's to

854
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,279
Speaker 3: say if you had the DNA from one of these guys, like,

855
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 3: there might be a Walt Disney walking around, there might

856
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,960
Speaker 3: be a tad walking around. There might be some way

857
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 3: somehow they can generate a kid through DNA. I don't

858
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 3: understand all that stuff. I don't I don't pretend to

859
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 3: be on that that type of thinking pattern. But if

860
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 3: you could recreate wild horses from cloning or the sheep

861
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 3: that they were doing. Why wouldn't you be able to

862
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 3: do it with a person.

863
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:42,360
Speaker 4: It's all the same type stuff, right, clearly they didn't

864
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 4: there you go multiple times over.

865
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 3: Or maybe they're just.

866
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 2: Come on, man, let it fly, just let it go.

867
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 3: Maybe they're just doing rituals and going to different secluded

868
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:02,759
Speaker 3: islands and you know, doing other things to maintain their

869
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 3: youth or change their looks, stuff like that. You know, yep,

870
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 3: extreme you know, extreme approaches. There is that, okay, and

871
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,840
Speaker 3: then there's there's a sports show called Two Pros and

872
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 3: a Cup of Joe Knox, Brady Quinn and a guy

873
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 3: about the name of fat Boy Errington. Nobody says that

874
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 3: I'm cloned, bitch, I'm clone because the old meat didn't

875
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:25,479
Speaker 3: look like this. You know, I think it look great.

876
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:26,759
Speaker 3: Thanks buddy, you got it.

Speaker 2: your screen. All Right, you guys, ready for potentially another

886
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 2: name in the mix of quarterback competition in Cleveland? All right,

887
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 2: who's ready for maybe another name? Because we've heard about

888
00:46:55,840 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 2: Massage Watson, Shador Sanders, Dylan Gabriel. But maybe Ty Simpson

889
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 2: could be a potential fit in Cleveland based on the

890
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 2: relationship that he has with New Brown's head coach Todd Monkin.

891
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 8: My dad and coach Monk go go way back. They

892
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,319
Speaker 8: talk and talk, you know often. He texted in when

893
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 8: he got the job, and they you know.

894
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 3: Text it a little bit. So if I had the

895
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 3: opportunity to.

896
00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:23,520
Speaker 8: Play for the Browns and be you know, I dream country,

897
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 8: I think I'd be in great hands, you know, with

898
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 8: the team that they had, the organization, and then you

899
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:29,760
Speaker 8: know coach Monk and what he does with the quarterbacks

900
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 8: and the offense is super you know friendly and quarterback friendly.

901
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 8: And I think that, you know, he's going to coach

902
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 8: me hard if I be able to go there, but

903
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 8: he's going to do it in the right way. So

904
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:39,680
Speaker 8: I'm super excited.

905
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 2: All right, I'm into it. I'm into it now. I

906
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,680
Speaker 2: have a question for you guys. Do you believe that

907
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 2: they will draft two quarterbacks this year the Browns Again,

908
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 2: do you think they'll do that this year or is

909
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:53,839
Speaker 2: it just last year alone that they'll draft two quarterbacks

910
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 2: and this is just last year?

911
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 3: Okay, I think they bring on one. I don't think

912
00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:58,839
Speaker 3: they draft too. I think they draft one.

913
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 2: You buying the Tie Simpson connection there, potentially I.

914
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 4: Would describe it as this. Yes, there's a legitimate relationship there.

915
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,879
Speaker 4: I'm sure there's a lot of you know what, would

916
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 4: love to play for him, you know, everything from beforehand.

917
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 4: But this also is a it's a draft class at

918
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:21,359
Speaker 4: quarterback where there's Fernando Mendoza and then not really even

919
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 4: a consensus on who the number two is. Like, I

920
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 4: think it's pretty clear Ty Simpson is number two. And

921
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 4: by the way, I'm not even sure he's that far

922
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 4: off from Mendoza.

923
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 3: You know.

924
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 4: The one thing that he's gotten that's not working in

925
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,320
Speaker 4: his favor is lack of experience. So because Ty Simpsons

926
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:40,120
Speaker 4: only started what fifteen games in his career, it's being

927
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 4: kind of looked at differently than Mendoza, who started a

928
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 4: couple years of cow came over to Indiana and obviously

929
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 4: had a historical season. But when you watch them both

930
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 4: throw and you watch the tape of really what both

931
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 4: were trying to accomplish, I gotta be honest, man, Ty

932
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,759
Speaker 4: Simpson's not far off from Fernanda Mendoza, you know. And

933
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 4: I know we're talking about the Heisman winner, but he

934
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 4: can make all the throws. As I've said before, he

935
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 4: carried that Alabama offense, which is a crazy thing to

936
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 4: think because you know, it's think Bamay think great running

937
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 4: backs now since mark Ingram and you know many of

938
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 4: the guys that have come through their Shawn Alexander before

939
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:15,879
Speaker 4: him and all that.

940
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 3: But it was not that at all. It was more

941
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 3: of a pass happy.

942
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,920
Speaker 4: Offense, and you know that was where they excelled largely

943
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,839
Speaker 4: because of him, and their defense wasn't what it has

944
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 4: been in the past, so he had to kind of

945
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 4: do more with less than I think other BAMA quarterbacks

946
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 4: have in the past. And his tape's pretty damn good.

947
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 4: The question, though, is where's he gonna go. Like, I

948
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 4: don't know that there's going to be a team that

949
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:43,560
Speaker 4: takes him in the first round.

950
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 3: I'm not sure that.

951
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 4: I don't know if there's gonna be another quarterback taken

952
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 4: in the first round. This could be similar to this

953
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 4: year where we saw Kenny Pickett. I believe it was

954
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:54,359
Speaker 4: the only first round quarterback that year. This year could

955
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:58,319
Speaker 4: be something similar to that. And you know, if there

956
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,919
Speaker 4: is a tie there, great lean into Cleveland's a team

957
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,160
Speaker 4: that based on their current situation. I don't I'm not

958
00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 4: sure you're saying they're definitely a need of a quarterback,

959
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 4: should or did enough to earn an opportunity this year.

960
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 4: The massage is still there, so you've got those two,

961
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 4: and then that's assuming Dylan Gabriel, who's.

962
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 3: Also started the game, is still there.

963
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not sure it's a huge need for them,

964
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:21,080
Speaker 4: but I'm not sure there's a huge need elsewhere either.

965
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 4: And I think the hard thing for Tys Simpson is

966
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,399
Speaker 4: he might get caught up and really they're not being

967
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,439
Speaker 4: a ton of teams that have a need, or maybe

968
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,400
Speaker 4: they're not in love with the fact that, you know,

969
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 4: he's only started so many games.

970
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 3: They might want to go with the veteran route.

971
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:36,839
Speaker 4: And if that's the case, he may have to wait

972
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 4: and find a team that's way to take him and

973
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,719
Speaker 4: then sit him and develop him, which might not be

974
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,720
Speaker 4: the worst thing for him long term in his career.

975
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 4: But I'm not sure Cleveland's a team that takes them.

976
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 4: They got they got to rebuild their offensive line. There's

977
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:49,760
Speaker 4: a lot of things going.

978
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 3: On there in Cleveland. If Andrew Barry takes a quarterback

979
00:50:55,800 --> 00:51:00,799
Speaker 3: that is in the discussion of playing or being the

980
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:07,280
Speaker 3: future for the Cleveland Browns, I'm not I'm not sure

981
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 3: where that places him in terms of where you go

982
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:18,400
Speaker 3: with your job. If if you take another quarterback in

983
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,359
Speaker 3: this draft after taking a third and a fifth round

984
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 3: or which you don't really have to go fifth round

985
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 3: in that equation. Outside of saying its Shador Sanders and

986
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:34,479
Speaker 3: the fan fear the the coverage him ending up being

987
00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 3: the starter, I think that's what creates a larger conversation.

988
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,879
Speaker 3: Andrew Barry looks like a beast. If Shador Sanders proves out,

989
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 3: I think people will give a flyer and a pass

990
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 3: on on Deshaun Watson if that indeed concludes without getting

991
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,759
Speaker 3: any type of an ROI from him. I think I

992
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 3: think he's okay there, But I think I think the

993
00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 3: whole Dylan Gabriel is a I think that's a conversation

994
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 3: why go out and get If Shador Sanders ends up

995
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:13,160
Speaker 3: being the guy, which I think everybody fully anticipates in

996
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 3: this quarterback competition, Shador Sanders will probably emerge, but maybe

997
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 3: he doesn't. I don't know. I think Deshaun Watson should

998
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 3: be the one that you should be focused in on

999
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 3: because of the money and because I think he's actually

1000
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 3: better than Dylan and Shador Sanders. I think he's a

1001
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 3: better option today potentially. So I don't think you add

1002
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:44,880
Speaker 3: another Why add another quarterback to that room when you

1003
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 3: already have three? I think there's things you can do

1004
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,880
Speaker 3: to improve your team, and going after a quarterback in

1005
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 3: the draft, I just don't see that. I think you

1006
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 3: get a quarterback that goes to your practice squad or

1007
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,720
Speaker 3: gets cut. If you get a quarterback in this year's draft,

1008
00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,120
Speaker 3: you guys ready to play a little game here? Oh

1009
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 3: all right, it is about that time? All right? Love it.

1010
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:08,880
Speaker 2: DraftKings has done it again.

1011
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 3: I like that music, Little Wound.

1012
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 2: Which team will Ty Simpson be drafted by?

1013
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 8: Now?

1014
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 2: The Cleveland Browns are sitting at nine to one on DraftKings.

1015
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,920
Speaker 2: There are currently five teams ahead of the Browns with

1016
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 2: shorter odds to draft ty Simpson. Would you guys like

1017
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 2: to guess who those five teams are? All right? Who

1018
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:36,120
Speaker 2: wants to go first?

1019
00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:38,840
Speaker 3: The Jets?

1020
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 2: The Jets are number one shortest odds on the list

1021
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:45,759
Speaker 2: at plus one eighty five one hundred wins of one

1022
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 2: to eighty five in return.

1023
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 3: Although Aaron Glenn could have been asleep for some of

1024
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 3: he already knew that they wanted ty Simpson. There there

1025
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 3: you go. Oh that's how we got Yeah, they already was.

1026
00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:58,959
Speaker 3: I mean that the work's already been done.

1027
00:53:59,160 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 2: I like that.

1028
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 3: And it makes sense who's in the top ten, so

1029
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 3: they're not taking them in the top two, so maybe

1030
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. Yeah. Uh, we mentioned Kenny Pigott.

1031
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:15,480
Speaker 2: Let's go with the Steelers, the air number two. Great

1032
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,920
Speaker 2: call the Pittsburgh Yes, about sitting at a plus three

1033
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:21,480
Speaker 2: point thirty all right, so one hundred wins of three

1034
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 2: thirty in return? All right, so we got three more

1035
00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 2: to go.

1036
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:26,640
Speaker 3: Arizona Cardinals.

1037
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 2: That is correct, the Arizona Cardinals at plus four twenty

1038
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:36,440
Speaker 2: five in the DraftKings' shortest odds to draft Ty Simpson

1039
00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 2: game Dolphins. The Miami Dolphins plus three seventy are on

1040
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 2: the list. That leaves one more to go. Wow on

1041
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 2: the who will draft Ty Simpsons?

1042
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 4: He said, And obviously not Cleveland, right, not Cleveland.

1043
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,920
Speaker 2: Can I give you a hints, Raiders? Can I give

1044
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:01,319
Speaker 2: you a hint?

1045
00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 3: Yes?

1046
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 2: Sure, he he would be in a very good situation

1047
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:11,040
Speaker 2: if this LeVar after him?

1048
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 3: LeVar, your name is your brother? The Minnesota Vikings. That

1049
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:15,880
Speaker 3: is incorrect.

1050
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 4: Here's the problem is, I'm trying to figure out what

1051
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 4: you define as a very good situation.

1052
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 2: Well, would not be asked to play right away, but

1053
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:32,360
Speaker 2: would be in a position.

1054
00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 3: Philly.

1055
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 2: No, not Philly. It is not Philly Falcons, not the

1056
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:45,800
Speaker 2: Atlanta Founcon. Well, I'm done guessing that's dumb. That's that

1057
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 2: is correct. That's correct. That correct. Look at some.

1058
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,760
Speaker 3: Point, I don't know what that was. That was easy.

1059
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,799
Speaker 2: That was a great That was a great hint. That

1060
00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 2: was that was at some point they're going to have

1061
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:03,360
Speaker 2: to find somebody for Stafford after Yeah, and so I

1062
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,759
Speaker 2: you know that could be. That's a good pot. I'm

1063
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,239
Speaker 2: not mad at that. You know he's there and he

1064
00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 2: just kind of takes.

1065
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 3: You wouldn't have the Vikings on there? Why not if

1066
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 3: he's not going in the first round, Why would you

1067
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 3: not think about drafting a quarterback.

1068
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 2: They're after the Minnesota have a first round pick. Yeah,

1069
00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:22,480
Speaker 2: they're picking I think nineteen.

1070
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:26,360
Speaker 3: I would take. If you're saying he's that close to Mendoza,

1071
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 3: I'm taking eighteen.

1072
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,480
Speaker 2: Minnesota's eight. I'm taking him.

1073
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,880
Speaker 3: If I'm the Minnesota Vikings and there's a player that's comparable.

1074
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:37,839
Speaker 3: And it came from Brady Quinn here right here on

1075
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,640
Speaker 3: two pros and a cup of Joe clipped this. Take it,

1076
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:42,960
Speaker 3: put it in an envelope, put a stamp on it,

1077
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,799
Speaker 3: Lick that stamp, put it in the mail, and send it.

1078
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:48,719
Speaker 3: Why would you not take Ty Simpson in the first

1079
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:52,319
Speaker 3: round if you're the Minnesota Vikings and he's that If

1080
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:56,360
Speaker 3: he's that close, he's got a fall to Mendoza. Huh,

1081
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:58,239
Speaker 3: he's got a fault of them. Well you said he

1082
00:56:58,320 --> 00:56:59,640
Speaker 3: might not go in the first round.

1083
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, he might not. But by the way, let me

1084
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:04,400
Speaker 4: be clear on this. If Mendoza was going in the

1085
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 4: draft next year, I don't know that he'd be I.

1086
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 3: Mean, oh wow, oh wow, be way behind the group. No,

1087
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,960
Speaker 3: it's true. You don't need to make this viral. This

1088
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 3: isn't like I'm not like on an island with.

1089
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 4: This opinion, let's go, let's go viral. Watch from anyone

1090
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 4: who's watched sounds viral to me.

1091
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,920
Speaker 3: The Heisman Trophy winner, that's the number one overall pick

1092
00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:32,960
Speaker 3: this year, locked and loaded, wouldn't even be what. I

1093
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:36,040
Speaker 3: wouldn't put him ahead of Dante Moore. I wouldn't put

1094
00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:36,800
Speaker 3: him ahead of C. J.

1095
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,920
Speaker 4: Carr and Arch Manning and all these Trinidad cholmless.

1096
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:41,440
Speaker 3: I mean, you can keep going down down the line.

1097
00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:43,560
Speaker 4: There's a lot of guys in next year's draft class

1098
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:45,960
Speaker 4: who he would have a lot of tough competition with.

1099
00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 4: Don't get me wrong, it was an incredible season. He

1100
00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 4: won the highest he won a national championship, and he

1101
00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 4: could turn out to be a great player in the NFL.

1102
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 4: I'm just saying this year's draft class, as far as

1103
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:01,000
Speaker 4: the competition of the talent of pastors that he's going

1104
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 4: up against, is nowhere close to what next year's is.

1105
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 4: And this is not just my opinion. Ask anyone in

1106
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 4: the NFL community. Ask anyone in the college, you know,

1107
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,080
Speaker 4: scouting community. They would tell you the same thing.

1108
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,640
Speaker 2: Okay, and uh, you know reportedly, I take.

1109
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 3: Your word for it. I don't need to ask all

1110
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:22,560
Speaker 3: the other people. That's why you're on this show. I

1111
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 3: take I take Brady Quinn's word for it. Uh, and

1112
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:26,560
Speaker 3: it is viral.

1113
00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,640
Speaker 2: Fernana Mendoza was tago with CBS and said that a

1114
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 2: team was telling him to get arrested so he would

1115
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 2: slide in the draft. And Uh, what's funny about that

1116
00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 2: is people who think the Raiders would shy away from

1117
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:40,880
Speaker 2: taking somebody who got arrested. That's what's funny.

1118
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:44,920
Speaker 3: That's a good one, Like.

1119
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 2: Like the Raiders would really, Oh, we're gonna let this

1120
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 2: guy slip right off.

1121
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:51,880
Speaker 3: You know, have you seen their black hole? Oh Jesus,

1122
00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 3: a whole bunch of priors down there. Wait, hold on,

1123
00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:00,240
Speaker 3: where were we? What direction did you try to take?

1124
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:09,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have problems, man. It is two pros and

1125
00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:11,800
Speaker 2: a cup of Joe. Here on Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington,

1126
00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,280

1127
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:16,600
Speaker 2: to tell you about somebody in the NFL who might

1128
00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 2: be fed up right here on FSR,
