1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. 3 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 2: Welcome in, Good morning to you. It's Dan Patrick Show, 4 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. iHeartRadio app. Do Do Do Do Do, Do, 5 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 2: Do Do Do Doot with Dan Byer, Jason Stewart, Chris Proffet. 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,959 Speaker 2: I'm Doug Gottlieb, the Doug Gottlieb Show crew, sitting in 7 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 2: for Dan and the Dan Nuts here as we get 8 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 2: ready for football season. While we continue to ride out 9 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 2: the wave of the Brewers winning streak. Uh, the Angels 10 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 2: winning streak. Huh, you can put a halo on that 11 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: one as the angel sweep the Dodgers. I'm sure there's 12 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: other stuff going on in sports, and we're gonna get 13 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 2: to this Shador Sanders topic in one second. I do 14 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: think that there's this is a real thing, Dan, I 15 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 2: think this year has been a abject disaster for the 16 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: w NBA from this standpoint. Well, you can be the 17 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 2: most ardent WNBA. I can't stand the women and how 18 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 2: they treat Caitlyn Clark, or how the level of play 19 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 2: or the promotion of it, or putting them on ads 20 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 2: instead of NBA players or whatever. There's plenty of guys 21 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 2: out there that feel that way, right, But their main 22 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 2: attraction is Caitlyn Clark. She has not played during the 23 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 2: meat of summer, and by the time she comes back 24 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 2: and plays, football is being played and zero people care 25 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 2: about the WNBA. Now there's and there was a there's 26 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: a growing following. And I'm just telling you, like that 27 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 2: last summer, not putting her on the Olympic team was messy. 28 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 2: It probably helped her personally as she it was just 29 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: too much of a whirlwind and she got kind of 30 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 2: got her stuff together for the playoff run, but it 31 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 2: did not promote the sport. And then the one woman 32 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 2: that drives ratings to the sport isn't playing all summer 33 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: and she'll come back and play. By the time she 34 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: comes back, some plays, it's the end of August, We're 35 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 2: onto football. College football starts in with two weeks. 36 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: It's over. 37 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like you want to talk about missing a window, Right's. 38 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 2: I was thinking about that last time. I was like, Hey, 39 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 2: what's missing? Why has there been zero to talk about 40 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: for like three weeks outside of Chador or whatever. And 41 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 2: I know it's usually this way, but I'd landed on Hey, 42 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 2: last summer we were talking about Olympics, WNBA Caitlin Clark, 43 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: and she's very much still alive, still playing basketball, but 44 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: injured right now during the one time of year and 45 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 2: nothing else is going on that anybody wants talk about it. 46 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 3: And here's the scary thing. College football is a week 47 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: from Saturday away because of week zero, the full schedule 48 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: obviously coming up with August twenty eight, two weeks from today, 49 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: and then obviously on Saturday, August thirtieth, we get a 50 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: full slate of games. But Doug, to your point point 51 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 3: about the WNBA, I don't think any storyline was able 52 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 3: to grow. And I thought maybe we were gonna get that. 53 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 3: I thought we were maybe going to get more players 54 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 3: receptive to Caitlin Clark. We saw Sophie Cunningham make a 55 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 3: name for herself, and she made quite a name for 56 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 3: herself in sticking up for her. But I thought something 57 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: was interesting when the Connecticut Sun played the Fever and 58 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: they moved a game to Boston, and this was after 59 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 3: the little melee that they had earlier in the season, 60 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 3: and I'm like, this could be good for the WNBA 61 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 3: to get Connecticut Sun fans, maybe to be a rival 62 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 3: of the Indiana Fever that did not happen. There was 63 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 3: no ability to make a rivalry with Page Beckers and 64 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: the Dallas team because Caitlin Clark hasn't been available. Nothing 65 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 3: was able to progress this year, and if anything, maybe 66 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 3: it took a step back because we see that it 67 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 3: is so Caitlin Clark driven. 68 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 4: Don't you think that the contrast has been offered up though? 69 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 4: Because Doug's point that it's been a disaster for the WNBA, 70 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 4: can you make a case that it's been a net 71 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 4: positive for Caitlyn Clark and that she proved in her 72 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 4: absence how valuable she is to an entity. This coming 73 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 4: off of her declining to do that stupid three on 74 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,239 Speaker 4: three league, coming off of get A not being included 75 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 4: on the Olympic team. This whole Sophie Cunningham storyline is 76 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: all about her protecting Kitlin Clark. That's her brand. She's 77 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 4: gotten the podcast, she's gotten the ad time because of 78 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 4: protecting Kitlin Clark. So maybe a disaster for the w 79 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 4: the other part to it, but net positive for Kaitlin Clark. 80 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 2: There's another part to the Sophie Cunningham right. She's an 81 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: attractive woman that plays basketball right, and she's flirty with 82 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 2: with how she looks at the camera. So I mean, 83 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: I think, but yes, being white and straight too, yeah, 84 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 2: all those things, all those things were, all those things were. 85 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 2: But I think most of it is that the part, 86 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: it's the connection. She's she's, you want to, riding the 87 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: way of Caitlyn Clark, or she's catching some of that 88 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 2: whitewash of Caitlin Clark along with you know, being attractive 89 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 2: and you know, being completely different from what our images 90 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: of WNBA players was for the past twenty five years, 91 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: which has allowed us to hyper focus on a fifth 92 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 2: round pick at quarterback. Right, it's like we just we 93 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: have to pay attention to something. And I even think, 94 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: like the Micah Parsons thing, because because the Cowboys thing 95 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 2: happens every single year, right, every single year, it's like, hey, 96 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: who can we cocorate some sort of salary drama. We 97 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 2: know Jerry's ultimately gonna pay him. Let's ask for an 98 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: obscene amount of money. Maybe it's not the time, maybe 99 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 2: it's not the place. And then Mike Parson's really good. 100 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: Cowboys aren't but they're not terrible. You're gonna pay him. 101 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: He's doing a hold in. He's really under contract for 102 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 2: three more years without negotiation if they want to, so 103 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 2: it's gonna get done. It was kind of agreed to. 104 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: Then the agent was like, Yo, anyway, I think people 105 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 2: are completely over talking about the Cowboys, Like, let me 106 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: know when the Cowboys lose late in the season and 107 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 2: fall out of the playoffs so I can make fun 108 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: of them, or let me know if they get to 109 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 2: the playoffs and lose early so I can make fun 110 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: of them. But I've seen this movie. I know how 111 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 2: it ends. So instead we're hyper focusing on Shador Sanders, 112 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: which brings us to Dan Byer. Your thought on Shador. 113 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, So earlier in the week, Doug, I just made 114 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 3: the point that with the music playing in week one 115 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 3: of a preseason game where he hadn't gotten a lot 116 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 3: of snaps with film crew following him around, that those 117 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 3: were the things that I didn't think NFL teams wanted 118 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 3: to deal with or felt that there was a lot 119 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 3: of extra with Shador, and which was one of the 120 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 3: reasons why he fell in the NFL draft, And for 121 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 3: as great as he played on that Friday night against Carolina, 122 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 3: it was everything that was extra about it that was 123 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 3: the reason or that I felt that he fell in 124 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 3: the draft, and none of that had changed, so there 125 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 3: wasn't an opportunity for Shador Sanders to maybe do things 126 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 3: a bit different. The reason why he fell to the 127 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 3: fifth round, I felt was because of everything that was 128 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 3: extra with him that teams didn't want to deal with. 129 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I actually I'll draw a comp to what 130 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 2: we went through last year. You know, you get the 131 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: job late and we're on what's called APR probation APR probation, 132 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 2: So APR probation, we can only practice five instead of 133 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 2: six days a week, and those four hours of practice 134 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 2: time that we lost have to be mandatory study hall 135 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 2: for your team, right, And it's not because of my team. 136 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 2: It's like two years previous team was an academic disaster. Anyway, 137 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 2: The point was that when we every player we took, 138 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: we had to take with the mindset of, okay, what 139 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 2: happens if he flunks out. We can't have a guy 140 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 2: flunk out because you have a certain number of points. 141 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 2: You know, everybody has to be eligible, and then if 142 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 2: they leave, they have to go find a school, has 143 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: to be a four year school. There's all these rules 144 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: with they have to get a certain GPA in order 145 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 2: to transfer to a four year school to a junior college, 146 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 2: they're a freshman to another school. They got to get 147 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: a you know, a two point five, otherwise they hurt 148 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 2: you academically. So we had to evaluate who we take 149 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: based upon how hard they were to get rid of. 150 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: That makes sense, yes, And I think that was a 151 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 2: real thing for Shador Sanders, which was, you know, he 152 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: clearly blew off a bunch of these meetings and was 153 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 2: disengaged and frankly rude. Everybody says it. I've heard from 154 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: real NFL people that it was in many ways worse 155 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 2: just because this was their way of I don't want 156 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: to be drafted by that team. And you know, coaches 157 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 2: everyone talks to everyone in the industry, they just do. 158 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: So then word got out that Shador Sanders was a 159 00:08:54,960 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 2: complete jerk in these meetings, and then you start to 160 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: factor in, Okay, well I might like him, but Dion's 161 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 2: gonna want my job because he wants to coach his kid. 162 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 2: And oh yeah, by the way, you're gonna have a 163 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: film crew, you're gonna have his boys. You have a 164 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 2: kid that comes from a kid that comes from money. 165 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 2: So there's the perception, whether it's real or not, that 166 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 2: he's arrogant that he's entitled. Nobody wants entitled on a 167 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 2: sports team, especially from a guy who's not a first 168 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: round draft pick. You know, and then you have to 169 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 2: factor in your mind, Okay, what happens if we cut him? 170 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 2: Because that's a big reason Kaepernick. There's lots of reasons 171 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 2: Kaepernick was never back in the NFL. Okay, he didn't 172 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 2: want to be a backup, and he was at the 173 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: point in his career where he had to be a 174 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 2: backup and then potentially earn it or get a little luck. 175 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 2: Guy gets hurt and then you get an opportunity. But 176 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 2: it was the big part was and I talked to 177 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 2: a GM I remember at the time, said it's not 178 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 2: that if I bring him in, it'll be great, It'll 179 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 2: be well received. He's a talented guy. He's probably a 180 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 2: backup stage in his career. You know, he's not great 181 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: at reading a defense. Remember he can only scramble out 182 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 2: to his right. There's a lot of things that but 183 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 2: it was what happens if I cut him? If I 184 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 2: cut him, I get me called a racist. I gotta 185 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 2: lose half my locker room. What happens for Shador Sanders 186 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 2: if we cut him. You know what what happens? What 187 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: how are we received? Do we do? We look like 188 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 2: clowns for taking this guy on? So I yeah, I 189 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: do see that. I I completely agreed with your take, 190 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 2: which is the the play on the fuel was fine. 191 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 2: It was good. It was good. I still don't know 192 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: how good an army has, right, it's still against but whatever, Like, 193 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: let's not diminish. It was good. Sure, I agree, But 194 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 2: it's the you show up and you're a fifth round 195 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: pick and you're fourth in the depth chart, and you 196 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: got a dude bring in music, hold another guy holding 197 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 2: your bag, get like, what what are we doing? That's 198 00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 2: not how quarterback is played in the NFL. Quarterback it's 199 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 2: very much like a political position where you got to 200 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 2: rally everybody behind you and you got it the same 201 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: reason that politicians they go and do they go to 202 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: these like diners or they go get ice cream, and 203 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: they always you know what they always wear. They always 204 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 2: wear a blue button noun dress shirt. They don't wear 205 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 2: a tie, and they roll up their sleeves. Right now, 206 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 2: all these guys are ridiculously rich. Trump's the only one 207 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 2: to be like, I'm rich. I'm wearing my stuff. I'm 208 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 2: wearing the same suit every day. Like I don't even 209 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 2: know if he has like any you know, anything else 210 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: to wear, but all these other politicians they do because 211 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 2: that's the job. You're supposed to look like the everyman. Right, 212 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 2: I'm just roll up my sleeves, no tie. Right, I'm 213 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 2: one of you. Like what. But that's where And there's 214 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 2: definitely a section of fans that think that this is 215 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: about things that it's not about. That's just hey, hey, 216 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 2: it's a young black man trying to trying to, you know, 217 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 2: push the envelope what's acceptable, Like, well, there's the young 218 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 2: black man was drafted number one overall quarterback this year, 219 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 2: Like what do we do? It's happened ten times. It's 220 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 2: not about that. It's about the appearance of being humble, 221 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 2: not entitled, and motivated to prove everybody wrong. Right, And 222 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 2: that part he's obviously motivated to prove everybody wrong, but 223 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: it's the delivery still feels like he doesn't actually get it, 224 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 2: and it Bill hasn't actually got. 225 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 3: It, and it feels like that he wants to do 226 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 3: it on his own terms. And the point that I 227 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 3: will stand by and I don't take anything back for 228 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: what I said was, it's also a little bit of 229 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 3: an indictment on the NFL. But again, the NFL and 230 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 3: these teams are in charge. So when you're applying for 231 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 3: a job or going for a job, you want to 232 00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 3: be able to show your worth and fit in. And 233 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 3: I just found it surprising instead of carrying a veteran's 234 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 3: stuffel bag into the locker room like a rookie normally 235 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 3: would that, another teammate of his was playing Shador's own 236 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 3: song in week one of a preseason game, and I 237 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 3: just I it was surprising to me, and it felt 238 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 3: like it was a lot and at that point, like 239 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 3: if it was week one of a regular season game 240 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 3: where he had won the job, maybe there's something to that. 241 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 3: Maybe at that point you can do it. But I 242 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 3: just felt, in week one of a preseason game, do 243 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 3: you need your own soundtrack walking into the stadium? And 244 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 3: I just didn't think so. I thought the Tony Grossi 245 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 3: interview that was recorded, which Tony ended up approaching Shador, 246 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: but Tony didn't know that they were recording. That's another 247 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 3: aspect of it. It's not that the NFL is Scott 248 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 3: free and it's all blamed on Shador. But that's where 249 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 3: you would think a lot of the responses came from 250 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 3: that Shador is the victim and in all of this 251 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 3: and what's happening in Cleveland because he was the one 252 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 3: that was taken in the fifth round, that he's the 253 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 3: one that's not getting the first team reps. Like that's sports, 254 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 3: that's that's that's what you gotta deal with. This is 255 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 3: no different than other quarterbacks. So to put paint Chadors 256 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 3: a victim here, which I don't think Schador is trying 257 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 3: to do, I think it's I think it's the fan 258 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 3: base of Chador that's trying to do that. I just 259 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 3: I don't agree with that at all. 260 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it it definitely it's given us something to get 261 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: us through kind of this preseason. We're talking about the 262 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 2: Browns and their current fourth string quarterback. It has distracted 263 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 2: us from talking about Deshaun Watson, who's still like working out. 264 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 2: You know, they changed his contracts. I think they got 265 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 2: him for a couple more years. Like that's gonna be 266 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 2: weird when he we have. He mentioned like he's gonna 267 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: come back at some point and want to play football. 268 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: It's it's gonna be fascinating. 269 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: Be sure.

Mark. 294 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 2: Let me just ask you first, in terms of watching 295 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 2: the All twenty two, what'd you think of how Shador 296 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 2: played in their opening exhibition game. 297 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 6: Well, thanks for having me on, guys. I think he played well. 298 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 6: I mean when you go back and you look for 299 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 6: some of the ball placements where, yeah, where there's some 300 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 6: throws he'd like to have back, of course every quarterback, 301 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 6: especially their first time, but just in terms of the 302 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 6: arm movement of the ball, velocity, the little pieces, it 303 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 6: was like, Okay, that's encouraging. That's what I kind of 304 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 6: envisioned Chador to try to look like to be when 305 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 6: you're playing out there for the Cleveland Browns. And so 306 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 6: I was I took it away as going, you know what, 307 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 6: I think he'll be a starter for the Cleveland Browns. 308 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 6: It won't be Week one, but I do think he'll 309 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 6: start this year for Cleveland. 310 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 3: What does it mean for Dylan Gabriel Because he's the 311 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 3: third round pick and seems to be in this quarterback sandwich, 312 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 3: if you will, between everybody else, But what does it 313 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 3: mean for the third rounder? 314 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I know there's whatever. There's some type 315 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 6: of rumor that they're possibly going to trade Dylan Gabriel. 316 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 6: You know, he's got to give to the football field. 317 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 6: He's you know, hopefully getting healthy. Now get back out there. Look, 318 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 6: they're going to keep three quarterbacks. I think they'll they'll 319 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 6: keep Joe Flaccos, they'll keep the two rookies, and they'll 320 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 6: let the things play out over time. There's no rush 321 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,719 Speaker 6: here for Cleveland. They're wanting to see both guys kind 322 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 6: of progress and see what they can do. But for 323 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 6: whatever reason, Cleveland has the injury at quarterback and it 324 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 6: just can't get away from it. We've seen this before, 325 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 6: right with the Ravens, you know again at the corner. 326 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 6: But the Ravens have had that kind of an injury 327 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 6: situation where you've seen the Ravens and the running backs 328 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 6: all went down or that you know, now the dbs 329 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 6: are going down for the Ravens for whatever horrible event. 330 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 6: For the Cleveland Browns, it's now their quarterback position can't 331 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 6: stay healthy. 332 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 2: So, I mean, we have you mentioned Deshaun Watson who's 333 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 2: like training coming back from achilles tear that he eat 334 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 2: tore and then re injured as he was rehabbing. Everyone 335 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 2: who's a Cleveland Brown quarterback seems to be injured. Okay, 336 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 2: let's let's scatter around the league a little bit. There's 337 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 2: growing concern at least when you read when you watch 338 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,719 Speaker 2: about Caleb Williams. What have you heard in regards to 339 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 2: how they feel like he's doing with a new system 340 00:17:58,640 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 2: in Chicago. 341 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,239 Speaker 6: But they're gonna There's not much they can say but 342 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 6: that they're hopeful, like they think that things are going 343 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 6: to go well. Obviously it sounds like the starters are 344 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 6: playing again this week and the Caleb's going to get 345 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 6: out there and show what he can do. You know, well, 346 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 6: we'll know Doug and oats hard you know, watching a practice, uh, 347 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 6: you know, you know, saying things hasn't been the best 348 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 6: of press conferences. You haven't heard the jade and Daniel's like, Wow, 349 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 6: look at how hard he's worked and he's put all 350 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 6: this effort in. It's just kind of like, Okay, you know, 351 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 6: we've got to figure out what we can do with 352 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 6: this guy. You know, this is a make or break yere. 353 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,479 Speaker 6: He's been out there on the field last year, he's 354 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 6: now on the field this year. You know, I've always 355 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 6: said I've always worried if he's going to put enough 356 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 6: time into it. I'm sure he's put good time into it. 357 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 6: I really as a former GM and anything, I just 358 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 6: I want to see him in the regular season. I 359 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 6: want to see how he reacts, how much is he grown, 360 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 6: because you as we all know, like year one to 361 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 6: year two is the leap for players. It just is 362 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 6: because the fact is they're not worried about vertical jumps, 363 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 6: are not worried about forty times and not on these visits, 364 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,959 Speaker 6: sorts of these different you know, of you know, pro 365 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 6: teams trying to figure out who likes him. They're focused 366 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 6: on the playbook and how to learn it and how 367 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 6: to grow. And so if Caleb Williams comes it out 368 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 6: and starts slow, it's a huge concern that they've got 369 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 6: this quarterback picked wrong. But if it comes out and 370 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 6: he plays consistent, because again he played good comparatively to 371 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 6: Trevor Lawrence, is for sure Caleb Williams played well. It's 372 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 6: just that we've got him on a pedestal and there's 373 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 6: so much potential there in a tough division. We'll see 374 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 6: if you can take the next step. I'm concerned because 375 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 6: I never felt like he could in the first place. 376 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 3: I don't disagree with you, But the one thing that 377 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 3: rubs me the wrong way mark about this is Ben 378 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 3: Johnson's got his new deal because first year, you know, 379 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 3: five year contract, Ryan Poles now gets an extension to line. 380 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 2: Up with that. 381 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 3: Why so quick to move off of Caleb considering how 382 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 3: much of a disaster last year was, Like, how can 383 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 3: we really take last year and count it against him? 384 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 3: Considering Shane Waldron was dismissed mid season, eber Flus is gone, 385 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 3: you know, in his first year, Like how much can 386 00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 3: we really hold last year against. 387 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 6: Caleb william a little bit? And that's what I said. 388 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 6: Did not agree with you, Dan, I think that when 389 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 6: you watched last year's overall production, I think because Jane 390 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 6: Daniels played so well, we kind of like Caleb really struggled. 391 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 6: Caleb actually played pretty good as a rookie, you know, 392 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 6: as as with everything that you're talking about and how 393 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 6: he performed. Just like I said, the trick is does 394 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 6: he take a step in a Ben Johnson offense. It's 395 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 6: just that it hasn't felt warm and fuzzy, right, It 396 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 6: hasn't felt like everyone's kind of wrapped their arms around Caleb, 397 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 6: like this has been amazing and we're really excited. It's 398 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 6: been more of a little bit hands off, like we're 399 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 6: working progress or you know, we're trying to get more consistent, 400 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 6: you know those kind of things. So you just read 401 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 6: the tea leaves and say, okay, let's see. I mean, 402 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 6: Caleb Williams was starting quarterback for this year and probably 403 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 6: next year, no matter what, because you take a guy 404 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 6: in one overall, you're going to give him every shot. 405 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 6: I mean, I remember the GM. I drafted a corner 406 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 6: in the third round and he got four years to 407 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 6: try to become starting cornerback. If you'd have been drafted 408 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 6: in the sixth round, I probably would have cut Hmack 409 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 6: for the first year and tried to put him on 410 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 6: the practice squad. Said where your Caken gives you that 411 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 6: opportunity to stay longer, and even if it's frustrating for 412 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 6: fans they go as a bum. Well, you know what, 413 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 6: Ryan Foles can get fired too. It's like players get 414 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 6: cut after one year of a you know, an extension 415 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 6: a GM doesn't mean that they're going to stay just 416 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 6: because they got an extension. Owners can afford to you know, 417 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 6: eat these contracts like never before. You know, ten years ago, 418 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 6: it was hard to you know, if you did an 419 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 6: extension for a player to move away from that player. 420 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 6: Now you can ease the manipulate it through this hour 421 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 6: cap and where the numbers are. 422 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy, what's the what's the reaction up there? 423 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 6: Yeah? You know, it's it feels like it's been good. 424 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 6: You know, I didn't if everything feels like it's like, okay, 425 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 6: you know, he's going to be able to do it 426 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 6: a little bit. I've watched and the practice throws. You know, 427 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 6: I've been very encouraged by where he's putting the ball 428 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 6: and the way he's you know, decisions he's making. I 429 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 6: think it's good. You know, do do I think it's like, wow, 430 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 6: you know, we have another Jane Daniels. I don't know 431 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 6: about that, but I certainly feel like, just like Chicago 432 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 6: should have hope, I think they have hope in Minnesota. 433 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 6: It hasn't been you know, all this doom and gloomer 434 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 6: like what's wrong with JJ McCarthy. It's more of like 435 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 6: we just want to see it. But from what it 436 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 6: feels like, I think they're in a good spot to 437 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 6: kind of. 438 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 3: Take a bird's eye of you. Mark Dominic joining us 439 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 3: here on the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio. 440 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 3: If you look at that whole division, So you got 441 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 3: Detroit now with two new coordinators. We just talked Vikings 442 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 3: and Bears. Now Jordan Love's got a thumb deal with 443 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 3: the Packers as you see it right now, Where do 444 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 3: you stand with the four teams in placing as we're 445 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 3: a couple of weeks away from the start of the 446 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 3: regular Yeah. 447 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 6: It's an amazing division. You know, it feels like Minnesota 448 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 6: and Chicago are you know, are battling for who's going 449 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 6: to end up third or fourth? And it feels to 450 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 6: me like Green Bay and Detroit as good as Minnesota 451 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 6: was last year. I just feel like Detroit depending on, 452 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 6: you know, the health of that defensive line and if 453 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 6: it can come back, is the key to the difference, 454 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 6: right And so I like the Packers though. I like 455 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 6: Jeff Hafley what he's done on defense. You talk about 456 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,479 Speaker 6: a coordinator, he's been able to stay there and now 457 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 6: the guys understand what he's asking to do. You've got consistency. 458 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 6: It's a quarterback spot. You've got all these young guys 459 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 6: growing up together. I like what the Packers are. I 460 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 6: think they're not above Detroit as good as Detroit isn't 461 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 6: Either one of those two teams can represent the NFC 462 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 6: in the Super Bowl in my opinion. But I'm going 463 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 6: to lean towards the Packers because I just love the 464 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 6: way they've built this roster and it's all growing up 465 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 6: together at the same time, and it feels like a 466 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 6: team that's going to be relevant for the next four 467 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 6: or five years for sure. And I believe in Jordan 468 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 6: Love and I think that he's got a chance to, 469 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,360 Speaker 6: you know, take his game to another level. And so 470 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 6: with Luke Musgrave back, you know now, with you know, 471 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,239 Speaker 6: Matthew Golden, I just think that the points are going 472 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 6: to be very hard to overcome for the Packers because 473 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 6: they're going to score enough. I mean, opponents are gonna 474 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 6: have hard time putting up the amount of points that 475 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 6: I think the Packers can. 476 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 2: Okay, Matt Stafford, what's your read on on the Rams quarterback. 477 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 6: I think they're just being very cautious, right, They got 478 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 6: to get him to week one, so they're just going 479 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 6: to like, you know, say what we need to hear, 480 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 6: you know, everything but Matt Stafford, to me, will walk 481 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 6: out the ton of Week one and play quarterbacks of 482 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 6: the Rams. He won't play in the preseason. This is 483 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 6: stents Embeddans opportunity to show that he's worth the fourth 484 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 6: ront pick and can be the number two. But Stafford, 485 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 6: I think will be fine. I don't think this is 486 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 6: something that's going to continue to linger out. I think 487 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 6: it's just one of those things that they're being overly 488 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 6: cautious with them because they understand the whole season that 489 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 6: is relying on him. 490 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,959 Speaker 3: What is their view of this year? Because this has 491 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 3: been my thing with the Rams. Doug's heard me say it, 492 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 3: Jason's heard me say it. I think they were close 493 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: last year on the scoreboard in beating Philadelphia. I don't 494 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 3: know how close they were, But now in the NFL, 495 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 3: it seems like if you have a shot, do it. 496 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 3: It's why I thought they brought Stafford back. How close 497 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 3: are they And for a team that less need has 498 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 3: been a mover and shaker, they got two number ones 499 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six. Would there ever be a point 500 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 3: where they would be like, all right, Stafford's not healthy. 501 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe we look in another way at the Rams 502 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 3: kind of their big picture. 503 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I think they've got to. They're trying 504 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 6: to stay in that window with the most difficult position 505 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 6: at all. Right, we see teams a lot of times 506 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 6: like Josh Allen's going to it now, right, the Bills 507 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 6: have since spent a fortune of money trying to keep 508 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 6: the crew together, and then what's going to happen is 509 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 6: those guys are going to come out and now they're 510 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 6: going to try to do it again. Patch Mahomes is 511 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 6: on the second wave of that right now. Right in 512 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,679 Speaker 6: terms of like he's coming to the league. They had 513 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,239 Speaker 6: a shot to go to get Super Bowls and then 514 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 6: they had to like readjust their roster and now they're 515 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 6: doing that right now in Kansas City and they're still relevant. 516 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 6: The Rams are the kind of that they've readjusted the roster, 517 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 6: except the quarterback as the aged one instead of the 518 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 6: younger guy like the Mahomes or Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson. 519 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 6: And so I think the reason why they have two 520 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 6: number one is that they know that next year's draft 521 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 6: they've got to do something and they know they have 522 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 6: to do it at that position, and so they got 523 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 6: the extra ammunition to be able to do that. I 524 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 6: think they've planned on that this is Stafford's last season 525 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 6: and that's why I think they're being safe with them. 526 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 6: But I think the building blocks are there. This team 527 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 6: does have a very young, explosive defense. It's very exciting, 528 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 6: you know. Getting the running back taken care of it 529 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 6: a club friendly deal huge for them. So I think 530 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 6: that you'll see them change that position out through the draft. 531 00:25:57,880 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 6: I don't think they'll go for the veteran, like take 532 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 6: the and go get a veteran or or somebody that's 533 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 6: been somewhere else. I think they'll pick their own guy 534 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 6: in the twenty twenty sixth draft to be the next 535 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 6: starter for the Rams. 536 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 2: James cook signds a four year extension, and this is 537 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: a it's a weird one, right because he's only in 538 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 2: He's only in year four of a five year rookie contract. 539 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 2: And I thought the is very telling that the agent's name, 540 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 2: we're in the tweet and chapter's tweet, right, so hey 541 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 2: with us, we went out there, we did this. It's 542 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 2: it says thirty million dollars guaranteed when you have that 543 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: fifth year option out there, right, So he was going 544 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 2: to get paid more money next year. Anyway, what do 545 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 2: you think the details actually look like in terms of 546 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 2: this extension for a guy who was back to back 547 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 2: thousand yard seasons. 548 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, so you know, James actually owners the rookie deal. 549 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 6: It's a four year deal, that's what it is. The 550 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 6: next year would be the franchise tag for him. You know, 551 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 6: first round is obviously get the fifth year option for them. 552 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 6: So James was, you know, he's going into his last 553 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 6: season and what's in front of him is that franchise tag, 554 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 6: which is a significant number. To me, the holding was 555 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 6: pointless if they're going to sign four years for eight million. 556 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 6: I think that was on the table the whole time. 557 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 6: I don't think there's any way that wasn't on the table. 558 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 6: I think the Bills just put their heels in and say, hey, look, 559 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 6: take it or leave it. And I think what really 560 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 6: happened behind the scenes was James Cooks was trying to 561 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 6: get sixteen to eighteen a year and the Bills were laughing, 562 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 6: going we're not giving you that. We're just it's not 563 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 6: gonna happen. I mean, think of it this way, Zach Killer, 564 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 6: who's the agent for you know, James Cook was Dalvin Cook. 565 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 6: So Dalvin Cook's agent. Right when Dalvin Cook did his 566 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 6: deal with the Minnesota Vikings five years ago, Dalvin Cook 567 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 6: got more money than James Cook got today when the 568 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 6: salar caps jumped sixty seventy million. So this is not 569 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 6: a great deal. This is nothing to beat your chest on. 570 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 6: You know, he's the agents trying to say, hey, well, 571 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 6: James always envisioned himself as a Buffalo Bill. That's why 572 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 6: we had to do it. Neil Baloney. He took the 573 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 6: deal that they put in front of you. You were 574 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 6: scared to play it out, which I understand. I'm not 575 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 6: gonna be mad at James Cook. It's forty eight million 576 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 6: potential dollars, but the reality is he left three to 577 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 6: four million dollars on the field if he goes to 578 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,360 Speaker 6: free agency next year, because I think somebody pays him 579 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 6: fifteen to sixteen million. But good, good for Buffalo Bill's 580 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 6: good for James Cook. But it's not one where the 581 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 6: agent should beating his chess. Then I did a good job, 582 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 6: because it's just it's just kind of a deal at 583 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 6: the ramback spot where it's good money. Again to the 584 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 6: average American, it's like huge money, but to the running 585 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 6: back market. By these last extensions you know, Karen Williams 586 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 6: obviously in the Rams and now James Cook, they continue 587 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 6: to push that market's going down. It's only eleven twelve 588 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 6: million a year. That's kind of what the market is. 589 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, no, that was more My point, Mark 590 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 2: is that I think because of the success of Saquon 591 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 2: Barkley and Josh Jacobs and and guys that had come 592 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 2: to contract impasses Derrick Henry, there's this thought, oh, it's 593 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 2: going to change the running back market, and then Saquon 594 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 2: gets you know, they tear up his deal and reup it. Like, No, 595 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 2: it's pretty much the same. The evaluation is the same, 596 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 2: and if anything, it's actually lower because, as you point out, 597 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: the salary cap as jumped substantially. 598 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 6: You just have to dog you have as a running back. 599 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 6: I know it's hard as an agent. It's easy for 600 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 6: us to sit here and talk about it. You have 601 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 6: to get to free agency, have thirty one other clubs 602 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 6: bit on you, or you're going to take the eleven 603 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 6: to twelve million dollars deal because that's what CLSE are 604 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 6: going to offer. So you've got to just decide what 605 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 6: do you want to do. Do you want to get 606 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 6: paid or do you want to see what your value is? 607 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 6: Two different things. Running backs, if they really want to 608 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 6: get paid, they've got to get to free agency at 609 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 6: a young age like they are, Like James Cooker Williams 610 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 6: would be would have been No again, No, they got 611 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 6: to secure their bag. They want to get their money. 612 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 6: I can get it, No big deal. But we're not 613 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 6: going to see a market change until somebody pushes John 614 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 6: Flipon says I'm going to free agency. 615 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 2: That's Mark Domini, former Gentlem manager Tampay Buccaneers. You can 616 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 2: hear them weekly in the Doug Gottlib Show. Mark you 617 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 2: the best man.

We discussed this like last week, Like, 628 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe i'm maybe my parents were old school, 629 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 2: but I don't remember anybody taking me to school. Just 630 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 2: bye bye. Felt like that old Saturday Night Live skit, 631 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 2: bye bye bye, bye byebye. But this is the Dan 632 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 2: Patrick Show on Fox Sports Tradio. Okay, uh, Taylor Shrip 633 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 2: was on with the Kelsey's On podcast, So there's a 634 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 2: lot to it. Dan, I thought you brought up a 635 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 2: bunch of interesting points, but maybe the most interesting was 636 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 2: who does this serve? Right? Like, who does it serve? 637 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 2: What's the what is the point? Why is she doing this? 638 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 2: And what do you think that the answer is? I was. 639 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 3: I watched the almost entirety of the two minute after 640 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 3: the two hour episode, I towards the end, I just 641 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 3: kind of fast forward a little bit. But it was 642 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 3: on for two hours last night, and even at the 643 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 3: end of that, Doug I wondered, all, right, did Taylor 644 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 3: do this to bring her fans into the football world? 645 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 3: Was it to get football fans to appreciate Taylor Swift? 646 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 6: Where? 647 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 3: What was the reason behind this? Ultimately, I think it 648 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 3: shook down to as we talked it out, I think 649 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 3: it was probably a safe space for Taylor to say 650 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 3: what she wanted to say and to reveal her album 651 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 3: and to do it in a neat way with the 652 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 3: person that she loves. So ultimately maybe it was just 653 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 3: to serve themselves. But record numbers watching it and millions 654 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 3: of people when it went live yesterday afternoon or I 655 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 3: think evening in some parts of the country. But I 656 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 3: had wondered of what was the reason for it, even 657 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 3: after watching the two hours, and ultimately I think it 658 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 3: was just good for Travis and Taylor. 659 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's what it was. I think it 660 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 2: was it gives America a look at sort of America's couple, 661 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 2: right and Jay stu It took him probably six to 662 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 2: nine months to go to come off of the it's 663 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 2: a fake relationship argument. And to anybody who thought it was, 664 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 2: then you watch you watch yesterday, You can watch now 665 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 2: online and be like, not, okay, that works. You know 666 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: that there, that's a real thing. I do think that 667 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 2: oftentimes we think there's a strategy involved. It's a lot 668 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,959 Speaker 2: like here's the parallel I'm gonna drive. I have a 669 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,479 Speaker 2: really good friend who worked with the president in his 670 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 2: first term, and his thing was anybody who thinks that 671 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 2: when he comes out with some new plan that there's 672 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 2: that they've they've workshopped it or whatever, that there's a 673 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: whole plan in place, Like that's not how he operates. 674 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 2: It's just not, oh, there's this master plan with the economy, 675 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 2: like no, not really just has an idea. Somebody proposes 676 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 2: an idea, thinks it's a good idea, It gets committed to, 677 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 2: it goes and does it, even if it may contradict 678 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 2: an idea he had a couple weeks ago. And I 679 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 2: think that's what's at play here with the Kelseys is 680 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 2: she probably always wanted to do it right, and everybody's 681 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 2: always why don't ever do that podcast? Why don't you 682 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 2: ever do a podcast? Like we only see you guys 683 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 2: taking pictures in a club or a concert or a 684 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 2: football game like a podcast. It's just a conversation. It's 685 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 2: super like you've talked people into being a podcast, Like 686 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 2: I don't know, And then you get the dates arrive, Hey, 687 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 2: let's do it now for the season to get out 688 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 2: of the way, and we'll just talk and we'll you know, 689 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 2: talk music, talk some football, let people know who we are, 690 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 2: and that's it. Is there a benefit to the Kelsey's Yes, 691 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 2: is there a benefit to her? Yes? But I I 692 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 2: and I could be wrong, And maybe it's because I 693 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 2: believe in the good and people first and foremost that 694 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: I don't think everybody has some master plan on how 695 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 2: to manipulate likes and how to manipulate downloads and what 696 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: it means for your music career. Like she's a billionaire, 697 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 2: She's the most popular female artist in the country, period stop. 698 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 2: He is a multi time super Bowl champion, a Pro 699 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 2: Football Hall of Famer. Like, they don't need much more, 700 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 2: they don't need even attention, but it's just their way 701 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 2: of Like people probably don't think she likes her as 702 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 2: into football. You watch that, you listen to that, and 703 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 2: you understand that she's doing what every great partner should do, 704 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 2: which is she's fallen in love with what her partner does. 705 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 2: What it comes down to, So that I. 706 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 7: Became like a person who was running through the halls 707 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 7: of my house screaming, we drafted Xavier or Worthy And 708 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 7: my ords are like, what is who body snatched you this? 709 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 7: What do you mean we drafted Worthy or Worthy? 710 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 2: I forget where it was, but you were the first 711 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:06,879 Speaker 2: person to tell me. 712 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 7: That I was screeching. I couldn't believe it. I was 713 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 7: freaking out. 714 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 6: We're talking about like, I'm like, wait, does she she right? 715 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 6: I had to look this up. 716 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 2: I'm like, she, does she get the wrong information here? 717 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 6: We trade it up? 718 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I will. I'm gonna just top in 719 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 2: one thing. This is where you're like a real person. 720 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 2: I like when you when you superstars are real people. 721 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 2: She said it's Xavier, but she says Exavier, it's like 722 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 2: a personal pet peeve. But forever reason it's charming because 723 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 2: it makes her seem like a real person that she 724 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 2: has there are things about her that aren't perfect and 725 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 2: that she's learning. 726 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, like like so it's a mistake, that's okay, 727 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 3: not a big deal. And yes, I thought that was 728 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 3: I thought it was. I thought it was great as well. 729 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 3: And it wasn't a pick that was or a news 730 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 3: item that was so obvious. There was a little bit 731 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 3: of of nuance in it, or a little bit of 732 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 3: inside that you'd have to be a Chiefs fan to 733 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,240 Speaker 3: really get excited about. 734 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 7: We're talking about cover two, cover four, cover zero, man 735 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 7: cover We're talking we're learning I continue to learn. 736 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 2: Maybe somebody else that even knows what those coverages are. 737 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm not ready to be an analyst right now, 738 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 7: but give me sixteen months. 739 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's He's been on his iPad and they've 740 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 2: been sitting there at home and he's watching and she 741 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 2: wants to know. I think it's awesome. 742 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 4: Something something tells me that he has been doing the 743 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 4: same thing like I. I reached Taylor Swift and Kelsey 744 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 4: fatigue way early into this, and I've almost come around. 745 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 4: I was very interested to watch last night. I'm very 746 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 4: I was very impressed or startled surprised by how genuine 747 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 4: they are. They're like two giddy teenagers. I love Love. 748 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 4: I like watching Love. But I also think that he 749 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 4: reciprocates that because he's had us fooled this whole time 750 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 4: into thinking that he loves her Mutuo. I thought he 751 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 4: was just saying it to be a good boyfriend. But 752 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 4: I think he also likes her music, which goes a 753 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,479 Speaker 4: long way with me, because I don't like her music 754 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 4: at all. It does nothing for me. It's not for me. 755 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 4: It's for teenage girls. But he seems to just as 756 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 4: she has dived into the football, I think he's actually 757 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 4: embracing her music. Too, which is a surprise to me. 758 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 2: Stan Patrick Schelle here on Fox Sports Training, I heard 759 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 2: Ready w Apple ahead. 760 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 3: And I don't I do think her music is for everyone, 761 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 3: not just for teenage girls. It's just Jason may not 762 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 3: like it. I will say that I thought Travis. Travis 763 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 3: felt like the third wheel at times because I think 764 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 3: he's used to him, him and his brother going back 765 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 3: and forth, but understanding that this was Taylor's opportunity that he, 766 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 3: you know, was gonna let her shine and would sprinkle 767 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 3: in things. But it wasn't a back and forth. It 768 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 3: was a back and forth between really Jason and Taylor. 769 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 3: And I thought Jason did a really good job. And 770 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 3: I know that there's some editing that's done, but it's 771 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,359 Speaker 3: not it's not sneaky editing at all. You know where 772 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 3: the cuts are, you know where the places where they've 773 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 3: they've stopped and started again. But Jason asked this question 774 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 3: to her, which I thought was great, and I give 775 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 3: them credit. Jason just asked, how did it work when 776 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 3: you were trying to get your masters back? Like, can 777 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,839 Speaker 3: you tell me the difference between what you know our 778 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 3: publishing rights and what aren't? And she laid it out 779 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 3: for him, and it was like a real music interview, 780 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 3: and she explained of like what she could do and 781 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 3: what she couldn't do, and why it was important for 782 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 3: her to get those master recordings, and why it may 783 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,399 Speaker 3: not be for every single artist. And I actually thought 784 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 3: that that part of it, aside from them promoting and 785 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 3: talking about their relationship, was actually an informative part of 786 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 3: the podcast. 787 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. It's look, I think it's fascinating to understand, 788 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 2: to have people understand business that they never understood before. Right, 789 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 2: I've had that conversation with a buddy of mine about 790 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 2: masters and about selling him and about holding on to him. 791 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 2: And so when I heard that part was I was intrigued. 792 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 2: But I did know a lot of it. Again, I 793 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,359 Speaker 2: just thought I thought it was a win. But it 794 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 2: wasn't set out. They didn't set out to win, right, 795 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 2: They didn't set out to win. They just set out 796 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 2: that I want to do a podcast, let's do it. 797 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:27,720 Speaker 2: That's how it felt. It felt very natural. 798 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 3: There is something that I do think is I don't 799 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 3: contrive to such a negative connotation. But Travis is on 800 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,280 Speaker 3: the cover of GQ. I mentioned this earlier, but Jason 801 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 3: at the start of the podcast, Jason Kelsey said, we 802 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,880 Speaker 3: told you where we were going to be back August 803 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 3: twenty seventh. Instead we've got a surprise. We're going to 804 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:50,839 Speaker 3: do this August thirteenth. Obviously, that dropping helps Taylor, maybe 805 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 3: helps GQ helps Travis. But Travis, within this GQ article, 806 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 3: talked about how his play over the last couple of 807 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 3: years slipped, and he says that he let his media responsibilities, 808 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 3: doing an FX show, hosting a game show on Amazon, 809 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 3: he let those things get in the way of his play. Now, yesterday, Doug, 810 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 3: after your show, I was in with Carrie Rhodes on 811 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 3: Cavino and Ridge, and Carrie was an all pro and 812 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 3: spend eight years in the league, says I just think 813 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 3: he's lost a step. I don't think he has it 814 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,400 Speaker 3: anymore like he once did. And I think this is 815 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 3: all cover up and hearing what Carry said, and I 816 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 3: didn't necessarily disagree with Carrie. In the podcast that aired 817 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 3: last night with Taylor, Travis talked about traveling the world 818 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 3: and said that in Taylor brought up the point that 819 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,720 Speaker 3: Travis had talked about going to different countries and Taylor's like, yeah, well, hello, 820 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 3: I am going on a tour we can go to 821 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 3: all of those countries, and so that's what they did 822 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 3: in the summer of twenty twenty four. Travis was with 823 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 3: her in Europe during those spots or going to different places. 824 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 3: That wasn't mentioned in the GQ article of the focusing 825 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 3: on football. And by the way, it would be okay, 826 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 3: Travis Kelsey's accomplished enough in his NFL career. He doesn't 827 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 3: need to play another down. He's going into the Hall 828 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 3: of Fame. But it was interesting to me to hear 829 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 3: him say that his TV stuff took him away, But 830 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 3: the relationship stuff with Taylor and being in Europe and 831 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 3: doing these different things were not a reason on why 832 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 3: maybe his play slip last year, which you disagree with. 833 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 3: I just don't know how it helps, you know, Like 834 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 3: I was when he went to Argentina two years ago, Yes, 835 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 3: during the bye week, I just thought, that's crazy. The 836 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 3: big joke is the NFL is now like we'll just 837 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,240 Speaker 3: go to South America once a year. We'll just we'll 838 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,720 Speaker 3: go there too, So maybe it looks a little bit normal, 839 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:45,399 Speaker 3: But I didn't think that that was the great move 840 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 3: for Travis and preparing for the Chiefs. They ultimately go 841 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 3: on and win the Super Bowl, so it didn't have 842 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 3: an effect. But again, none of this has an effect, 843 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 3: and it's okay if it did. He's at the end 844 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 3: of his career. But it's just it's never brought up 845 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 3: as maybe a reason, no, why not the relationship, but 846 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,400 Speaker 3: just the stuff that comes with the relationship. You're in 847 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 3: a different phase of your life, a different part of 848 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 3: your life. But he's pointed out single about the TV shows, 849 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 3: but nothing in terms of the travel that he may 850 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 3: have done with his girlfriend. 851 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 2: I would say this that inevitably, inevitably, there will be 852 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 2: some form of negativity towards it. Right. There always is, 853 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 2: And here's how I would take that negativity right, because 854 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 2: it's it's not good. I don't think it's going to 855 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 2: be anybody who matters. I think it'll be the the 856 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 2: bots or the fingers on social media that matters. Okay, 857 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,879 Speaker 2: But remember, in order to watch this or listen to this, 858 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 2: you have to seek it out, right, you have to 859 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 2: seek it out. So you can say I don't care 860 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 2: about them, Okay, well then don't listen and don't watch. 861 00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 2: It's fine. There'll be deal like they'll be. They'll be fine. 862 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 2: So if you say, hey, I watched I listened to One, 863 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:03,799 Speaker 2: I think it'd be really hard to come away and 864 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 2: think it's not a real relationship. It's pretty much impossible. 865 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,439 Speaker 2: And two they both seem really likable because Travis does 866 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 2: suddenly take a back seat, which I think he probably likes. 867 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 2: He's always been the center of attention. Now it's kind 868 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 2: of cool to have a girls set of attention, Like 869 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 2: that's that's dope. He can just kind of he can 870 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,840 Speaker 2: just gotta be the arm candy. And then three, like again, 871 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 2: the most important thing when somebody says like, dude, I 872 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 2: listened to that podcast. Wait so you sought out that podcast, 873 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 2: downloaded it, listen to it, and then you're like, yeah, 874 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 2: I'm not into them, Like okay, that's you just you 875 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 2: want the attention that you think they're trying to get. 876 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 3: Here's why I don't think it's going to uh backfire 877 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:45,320 Speaker 3: on him or in any way or it's going to 878 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:49,319 Speaker 3: matter is if he plays well this year, then he's right. 879 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:50,919 Speaker 3: And all the work that he's done with the speed 880 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 3: and agility coach work this offseason and guess what it 881 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 3: was the TV shows Travis identified the problem and addressed it. 882 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 3: And if it doesn't work, and if he has another 883 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 3: down season, he's just old and his better days are 884 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,360 Speaker 3: behind him. I don't think that this is going to 885 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 3: come up, and again, I don't think it matters. I 886 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 3: don't think it's a big deal. But it's just funny 887 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 3: because it sounds a little hypocritical by Travis to say 888 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 3: it was the TV shows and my attention to that 889 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 3: as opposed to being away for a month and traveling 890 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 3: throughout Europe. 891 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,399 Speaker 4: I thought it took like balls for him to admit that, 892 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 4: and for him to admit it on GQ. It wasn't 893 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 4: like a sports mag per se or a sports article 894 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 4: or a reporter, but it took balls. And I think 895 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 4: that only a guy who's had his career already could 896 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 4: say I was distracted last season as my team was 897 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 4: trying to win a third straight Super Bowl. Doug, you 898 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,319 Speaker 4: talk about the negativity and the bots and everything. I 899 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 4: think a Chief Saan would have an actual grievance to 900 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,360 Speaker 4: be like, wait a minute, you're admitting to being distracted 901 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 4: as we were trying to set history last year. What's 902 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 4: going on here? And I think Kerry Rhades is probably right. 903 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 4: I think that's his way of not admitting that he's 904 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 4: lost a step, but I think it takes balls and 905 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 4: it's almost refreshing to hear a guy actually admit I 906 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:14,240 Speaker 4: was distracted. How many athletes through the years, including Lebron James, 907 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 4: have said there's nothing to that. It's always about the basketball. 908 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 4: Everything else is sidebar. Travis Kelcey actually admitting this, I 909 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 4: think kind of puts him out there for criticism, don't 910 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 4: you think, Doug. 911 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 2: I do Again, I didn't hear the entire podcast. So 912 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,320 Speaker 2: were the TV shows he's talking about last year or 913 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 2: he's talking about in previous years? Because he did the 914 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 2: big reality show he did was like, yes, ten years 915 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 2: ago meant more than that. I was about ten years ago. 916 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 2: I was the CBS at the time, and where he 917 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,439 Speaker 2: dated thirty two women in the offseason. I thought that's 918 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 2: what he was referring to, not to last year. 919 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,320 Speaker 3: No, So he didn't mention any of the TV stuff 920 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 3: in the podcast with Taylor yesterday in the New New 921 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 3: Heights episode. It was in the GQ article where it 922 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 3: was pointed out the FX show and the show that 923 00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:00,320 Speaker 3: he did on Amazon that those were the shows, because 924 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 3: I guess there's multiple episodes with the Amazon show, and 925 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,919 Speaker 3: maybe I wasn't familiar with the FX show, but those 926 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 3: were specifically pointed out as shows that he did. 927 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,880 Speaker 2: The was it what is it? Something Kelsey is keeping Kelsey? 928 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 2: I forget what it's called. On the Amazon show, which 929 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 2: was pretty good. 930 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 3: And this is a different Amazon it was. This was 931 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 3: a different This was like a game show that he 932 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 3: hosted that he ended up being the host. But the 933 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 3: dating show that he did was yeah, that he wasn't 934 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 3: alluding to that that was a decade or are. 935 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 4: You smarter than a celebrity? Was the Amazon Prime show? 936 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:32,359 Speaker 2: Okay? 937 00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 4: And I wanted to say his dating show is he 938 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,319 Speaker 4: didn't he date a woman from every state? Wasn't it 939 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 4: the Kelsey fifty or something stupid like that? 940 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:41,759 Speaker 2: Something like that? Or was it thirty two? I can't remember? Wait, 941 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 2: so when was the when was the game show? 942 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 3: Was Chasing Kelsey? I think that the game show was 943 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 3: last the last offseason twenty twenty four. 944 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 4: Okay, so fifty women from fifty states vibe for the 945 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 4: heart of a pro football player Chasing Kelsey twenty sixteen. 946 00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, nine years ago. I was I was close close 947 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 2: my ears. I remember I interviewed him like he was 948 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 2: you know, you talk about you talk about a guy 949 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 2: who you had I had no idea would reach superstar 950 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 2: status nine years ago. Think about how his life changed 951 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,240 Speaker 2: when Pat Mahomes became his quarterback. 952 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 4: We were at the super Bowl, maybe it was Los Angeles, 953 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 4: I forget which super Bowl, and Doug and I are 954 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 4: prepping for the show, and all of a sudden, I hear, hey, Doug, Doug. 955 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 4: Somebody trying to get Doug's attention. Who's being walked by 956 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 4: a publicist the other way? And I look over. It's 957 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 4: Travis Kelcey trying to get Doug Gottlieb's attention as he 958 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:30,919 Speaker 4: used He used. 959 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 2: To come out all the time. And we talked basketball 960 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 2: because he played basketball Cincinnati, and we have some like 961 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 2: mutual mutual friends. And you know, I likeain to go 962 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 2: from that, like I have his number, I've never haven't 963 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 2: texted him in years. I have no idea if he 964 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,840 Speaker 2: has the same number, if he'd even know who you know, 965 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 2: new phone, who dish? But yeah, I mean media like ridiculous, 966 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 2: ridiculous went from hey, yeah, I know yea to these 967 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:02,320 Speaker 2: in the names you know in the NFL non quarterbacks, 968 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 2: he's top five in any conversation correct, yes, and then 969 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 2: after this podcast and after you know, now obviously a 970 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 2: long standing relationship with Taylor Swift, the most don't by proxy. 971 00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:25,359 Speaker 2: So so that's that's an unbelievable rise, unbelievablerise
