Boy yo, 43 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: ass ain't going to sleep that night. Man. I messed up, 44 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: and I knew it because I did this like a 45 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: month ago, and I swore myself off after two pm. 46 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: No more Starbucks, no more coffee. I can't even say 47 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: no more coffee. I mean Starbucks because I could drink 48 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,959 Speaker 1: a Celsius, but that's Starbucks. I gotta check my order 49 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: because I think it said four shots of something express, 50 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: so something something I shouldn't have had. Anyway, I needed 51 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: it because I was driving back. It was a couple 52 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: hour drive, A couple hours any Bitdy's in the back, 53 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 1: wife on the side. They all just watching iPads or 54 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 1: passed out. So I'm just riding. And then I get 55 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: to the crib and got to unpack. My wife does 56 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: most of it. I ain't gonna lie, but I still 57 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: had to do tidy up, get everything or organized, pick 58 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: up the big ass suitcases, take them up the stairs. 59 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: I need a ramp, y'all ever need a ramp at 60 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: y'all house and be like suitcase be beating up your stairs. 61 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: I'm doing that. I get them upstairs. All that's good. 62 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: Any beaties are tapping out around ten, a little late 63 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: because it's still the summer for them. And then I'm like, 64 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: I'm tired too. I felt it, so I take these 65 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: pills called Calm c A l M Calm. Took five 66 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: of them. You're supposed to take three, but I'm a 67 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: big dude. So I took five of them, and I 68 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: start feeling it and start it just relaxes you. I 69 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: should have been taking them when I played, because what's 70 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: in them just relaxes your muscles, right, And all of 71 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: a sudden you start feeling a little sleepy. Right. I'm like, ah, perfect. 72 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: And then I went to sleep, but I didn't feel 73 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: like I went to sleep. I looked up. It was 74 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: three o'clock and I was like, all right, it's dark, 75 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: so don't move. I'm sleeping. MJ is sitting next to me, 76 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: sleeping next to me. Oria's in the middle, and then 77 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: my wife is on the other side, like we got 78 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: a sandwich going. Livia's in her own bedroom because she 79 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: likes her new bed. She just got a new bed 80 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: last week, so she ain't tripping. So she and her 81 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: room and I'm like, it's three o'clock. I go back 82 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: to sleep again, It's four o'clock. I was like, did 83 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: I go to sleep? It was one of those nights 84 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: where you're like, did I sleep to night? I was 85 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: so mad. I end up going into Olivia's room just 86 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: to change the scenery and sleep in her new bed 87 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: since it's comfortable, and went to sleep with her. Woke 88 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: up again at six something. I was like, what did 89 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: I go to sleep at all? One of them nights 90 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: where I know I went to sleep, but I didn't 91 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: feel like I went to sleep. But I feel well arrested, 92 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: partly because I still got that damn expresso when from Starbucks. 93 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: So the eleventh commandment is thal shall not go to 94 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: Starbucks after five pm. All right, y'all, speaking of breaking 95 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: the commandment, let's talk about the rais. Y'all know y'all 96 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: heard this story, not really reporting on a lot, but 97 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: let's talk about Wander Franco and the Tampa Bay Rays. 98 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: Wander Franco's facing a second formal complaint for having an 99 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: inappropriate relationship with a minor special prosecutor in the dr 100 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: Dominican Republic. Been there before. Amazing time go, especially if 101 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: you're single. That's enough said. Has been investigating two prior 102 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 1: claims against Franco, only one of which has been made 103 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,919 Speaker 1: by victim who was willing to speak to authorities, you 104 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: get it. So there's been a couple claims against him. 105 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: A third girl has not spoken to authorities in the 106 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: Dominican Republic where he's from. Okay, so we got something 107 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: going on here. There are some reports, there are some 108 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: people talking about it formally, and then another one out 109 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: there but not formally speaking on it. All right, So 110 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: of course he denied the initial allegation on an Instagram 111 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: video though, ah bad legal representation, are bad disciplined by 112 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: the client one of the other. Do not go to 113 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: Instagram and try to clear your name of something this 114 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: damn grave. So he did, but he has a commented 115 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: since I think his lawyer got to him. It's like, 116 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 1: all right, the money's been processed, now let's talk. So 117 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: Franco's attorney obviously declined to comment as well. Why because 118 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: this is a tricky one, as you know, and we're 119 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: gonna talk about it. Major League Baseball, of course, has 120 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: no comment as it continues its own investigation into whether 121 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: Franco violated the sports agreement, as they say, Now let's 122 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: talk to it. Now, you know, nobody making a comment. 123 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: Franco just ran the Instagram. I don't know why he 124 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: did it, but he did. And after that, hush, hush, hush, 125 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: all around. Too sticky, tricky of a situation. When you 126 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: talk about an adult with a minor. We all know, 127 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: we've all heard the war stories of even if you 128 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: get found guilty, convicted of it, do not go to 129 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: jail in prison with this on your damn record, because boy, 130 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna have hell to pay. Okay, So let's start 131 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: off here because you know, like a Leah and everybody 132 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: always says age ain't nothing but a number, right, and 133 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: we know what R. Kelly got in trouble with a 134 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: Leah et cetera others, Because that ain't true. It does matter. 135 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: Age ain't nothing but a number. Is a lie. It 136 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: is more than the number, all right. I want to 137 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: talk about it in these terms because I'm eight years 138 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: older than my wife, always has been, always will be. 139 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: But it hasn't always mattered. Let's talk to that. Because 140 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about the law, We're gonna talk about cultures, 141 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about this number that they say is 142 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: just a number. But that's a damn lie. Okay, So 143 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: when I'm eight years old, my wife's born, duh inappropriate. Ah, 144 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: let's fast forward. I'm eighteen, she's ten, dumb inappropriate. I'm 145 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: twenty six. She eighteen. Not inappropriate or not illegal anymore, 146 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: but inappropriate. I don't know. Went to a wed God 147 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: was thirty one of my homies. Thirty, she eighteen. I 148 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: told them, you know how they always say if anyone 149 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: disagrees with this matrimony, and I was like, dog, trust 150 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: me when they bring that part up and be like, 151 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: hell no, thirty and eighteen, I was like, it ain't illegal. 152 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: It just ain't right. You want to know why it 153 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: ain't right because she ain't lived long enough to know 154 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: who she is and who she's not. She has not 155 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: touched this world. He ain't believe me, I said, I'm 156 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: gonna tell you she is too young, dog, she does 157 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: not know herself. It won't last. Didn't believe me. You 158 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: fast forward. Curiosity kills the cat. It wasn't even like 159 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: he did anything wrong bad, you know, to that degree. 160 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: It was just the fact that when things are not perfect, here. 161 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: You always think they could be better somewhere else. If 162 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: you have perspective, you will know how to answer that. 163 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: When you don't have perspective, you don't know how to 164 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: answer that. So you go where the grass seems greener 165 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: to find out that ain't nothing but some green weeds. Right, 166 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: it ain't grass, all right?

And I look in the crowd and two 192 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: things always jump out of me.

I'm like, no way. 198 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 1: But I went to school with girls. I used to 199 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: wear heels. You always tell y'all my Tiffany Cambridge stories 200 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: where I was like, she an adpte she in a 201 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: ninth grade. I was like, nah, she an adult the 202 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: way she dressed it. So it's just always crazy like that. 203 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 1: But this is an interesting situation because no one's talking 204 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: about it, right, because it's that stick. But how do 205 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: you learn if we don't talk through it and talk 206 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: about it? So, y'all tell me?

Be a part of 245 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: the team, the team that's gonna make some childhood dreams 246 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: come true. That's what we do. Let's talk about Jets 247 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers right now and the war words that he's 248 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: having with the Giants linebacker jahad Ward. We about to 249 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: talk about this, he said, Look y'all out there playing. 250 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: We all know the situation. We saw them hard knocks right, 251 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: they were going at it. He pushed Aaron Rodgers down 252 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: late after the player. Rogers had words with him, etc. Etc. 253 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 1: But let me build this one up properly, all right. 254 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: So here's the first quote. This is from Aaron Rodgers. 255 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: He said he thought we were laughing at his teammate. 256 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: That never happened, and I think he's making shit up 257 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: straight up. I don't care, Okay. So Ward took unbridge 258 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: at Rogers and the Jets, accusing him of laughing after 259 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb laid out his teammate safety Bobby McCain with 260 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: an illegal blind side block that left them with a 261 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: concussion in their preseason game, right, So that was all 262 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: the hard knocks. We all saw that, and everybody was 263 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: in the huddle laughing as they were trying to count 264 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: Cob for the hit about the penalty in and really, 265 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: this is what we all do, y'all. Y'all asked about 266 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: to get fined. You know, Goodell about to send that 267 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: fed ex immediately. You were in trouble, right, So then 268 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: Ward said he retaliated minutes later with a late shove 269 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: of Rogers after he completed the pass that sparked the 270 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: heated exchange between them two, and he said, we all 271 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: have I don't even know who you are, bro. Remember that. 272 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: That's what Aaron Rodgers said when he was getting up 273 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: talking to you, like, I don't even know who you are, bro. 274 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: That is ringing in our ears every time we think 275 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: of Aaron Rodgers now or see that Jed Green be 276 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: real like Dahl, I don't even know who you are, bro. 277 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: What a way to sun somebody, and very few can 278 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: do that. You gotta have that gap between who you 279 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: are and who they are. And Aaron Rodgers got that 280 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: gap on most players in the league. Let's just be 281 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: real about that, all right. So now they're talking about 282 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: all the attention that they're getting from Hard Knocks, We 283 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: know it. He said, Look, we had a lot of 284 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: attention before we did Hard Knocks, then we did Hard Knocks. 285 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: So there's some jealousy for sure. There's a lot of 286 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: people either jumping on the bandwagon or jumping off the 287 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: other side. All right. So Aaron Rodgers is not concerned 288 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: with negative energy going into his nineteenth season, and he 289 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: knows what Ward is talking about. Now, why do I 290 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: bring this story up other than I love seeing when 291 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: players fight because it's a little more emotional content, which 292 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: means it's a little more sticky out there, which means 293 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: I could see the investment front and center. They want 294 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: to win and they want to get at it with 295 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: each other. But Aaron Rodgers came at it from a 296 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: different angle. He came at it from the angle of 297 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: First of all, I don't even know who you are 298 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: from Godly, that's a son. And second of all, he 299 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: came out at an angle in terms of all the 300 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: attention that they're getting, and that's probably what really sparked it. Oh, 301 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: we can't even laugh right now, because you over there 302 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: envious and jealous of what we got over here. So 303 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: now we laugh at dog, We laughing at him because 304 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: he about to get fined and lose some money. And 305 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: you think we laughing at y'all because we supposed to 306 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: be bigger and better than y'all because of all this 307 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: attention we getting. That's what Aaron Rodgers's pointing now. Now, 308 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: when I was on the team, it's crazy because I 309 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: never wanted to fight, just being real, I thought it 310 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: was stupid, like dumb, like dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb dumb 311 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: where that from that dumb really dumb to fight? Why? 312 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: Because we got armor on, dummy, And everything I have 313 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: on is gonna protect me, and it's gonna also hurt me. 314 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: It's gonna hurt me if I throw a punch at you, 315 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: because everything you got on is gonna protect you and 316 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: hurt you too, Right, That's what it is like. This 317 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: equipment becomes a weapon. And that's why they say when 318 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: you play football without the helmet, you go out in 319 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: the backyard, just play. You probably won't get hurt because 320 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: you ain't WEAPONI you ain't got all that equipment on, 321 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: It ain't a weapon. So I used to always think 322 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: like Man, everything I do to you is gonna hurt 323 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: me because look at you got on. So I never 324 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 1: wanted to fight it. I want stupid, all right. But 325 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 1: then I also felt that pressure, and y'all know what 326 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 1: I'm talking about, that cultural pressure of being on the 327 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: team with somebody, you know, being down with somebody. I 328 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: hated that man because I had to fight for my teammate, 329 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: that sucking wrong. He did something stupid, and now he 330 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 1: want to get into it with you, And guess what, 331 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: I'm in it with you too. I'm into it with 332 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: you now because of him, and he was wrong. I 333 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: used to hate that, but it happened a couple of times, 334 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: and it was real, especially when he was in the wrong. 335 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 1: You're sitting there like dog, all right, let's go. We 336 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: got on the same color. We gotta do it just 337 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: like that man. I hated that situation. But these are 338 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: all the cultural pressures that come with team and team building. 339 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: So here's the thing about Aaron. You know, he's smart, 340 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: and Aaron wants to be the smartest in the room. 341 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: So you gotta be careful with that guy because he's 342 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: gonna manipulate your mind, and he's gonna manipulate the situation 343 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: if you give him an opportunity, he literally turned getting 344 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: pushed laid on a play into sonning this guy and 345 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: making this a whole fire story story about him crazy 346 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: put his name in infamy for real. Craziest thing is 347 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: I didn't know who Jaha War was before that. That's 348 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,439 Speaker 1: probably shame on me as an NFL analyst or former 349 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,479 Speaker 1: analyst or knowing the game or former player. But Aaron 350 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 1: highlighted what I was, like, Oh yeah, who is jahad War? 351 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: And that's gangster right, So frankly, before this moment, you 352 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: were somebody I'm knowing you a beast probably, I hope, 353 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 1: but I never heard of you, bro. And then Aaron 354 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: highlights that that's wild. But that's the smarts, that's the 355 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: genius of Aaron Rodgers, manipulating situations and minds. So it's 356 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 1: just crazy that all these war words come from the 357 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: fact that maybe the Jets is just too popular to 358 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: other players. You can't even laugh. You ever seen that? 359 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: You ever been with your boys just kicking it and 360 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: somebody else like what you laughing at? You're like, what's 361 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: wrong with this foot? Hey? Bro? And then y'all literally 362 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: start beeping. Not because of what you were laughing at 363 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: you beefing because this food trying to cloud you and 364 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: be like disrespectful. You're like, no, I'm not even thinking 365 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: about you, But now I am. What's up? And it's crazy. 366 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: I've seen it happen not only on teams but in 367 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: real life. So y'all think Jahad was really really just 368 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: defending the teammate or was he really really just jealous? 369 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: Let's talk through that in the comments. And you think 370 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: this attention is going to help or hurt the Jets? 371 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: All this attention, it's gonna do him a net game 372 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 1: or net loss and its air more likable now than 373 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: he was last year? Or do you think he's just 374 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: playing it up for the cameras and the extra scrutiny 375 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 1: that comes for being a New York Jet and being 376 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,880 Speaker 1: in a big Apple because it seems like he's more 377 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: likable right now.

All right, here we goes. Here's a 399 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: quote from Dan Levatard talking about Skip Bayless and Undisputed 400 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: as he noticed how it debuted this week. In this 401 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: new iteration, he said, quote, Skip Bayless is trying to 402 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: keep up with changing times in his seventies by opening 403 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 1: the gates of hell to three generations of This is 404 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: the loudest black guy who played football during his generation. 405 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: Three generations of it.

I can't lie. I won't 414 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: deny it. I didn't see all of it, right, I 415 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: ain't even see Acho. People thinking I'm shade Nacho, and 416 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 1: I ain't speak on it. I ain't watched the whole show. 417 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: I ain't see Acho. But now I hear Acho's on there. 418 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: Nick Wright's gonna be on there, Shady's gonna be on there, 419 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: so love so I want to see it, but I 420 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 1: ain't see everybody.

But what I did 423 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: see I did, Like I told y'all, Keithshan gonna be 424 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: the name Mainsteak. It's gonna be skipping Keishan, and then 425 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: everyone else supposed to be dressed up around it. Tell 426 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong, tell me if anything is different. 427 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: All right, So let's talk about the show came back 428 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: with all those people, Michael Irving of course, Richard Sherman, 429 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 1: of course, and they're all there, all in l A 430 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: doing their thing. Dang. All right, and here's my man. 431 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: Dan Levatard is taking exception to this return of undisputed. 432 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: He said, twenty years they've dominated debate culture and really 433 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: changed the face of the shorts media critic. All right. 434 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: Now he's talking about Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith, 435 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: and in debating everything created an asset of cruelty around 436 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: the way we treat athletes because it's all entertainment and 437 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: we say nasty things, and it's all sports radio and 438 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: it's all supposed to be content. And Skip Bayless is 439 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: trying to keep up with changing times in the seventies 440 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: by opening the gates of hell to three generations of 441 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: this is the loudest black guy who played football during 442 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: this generation. Okay, all right, that's a lot. That's a 443 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: lot to throw at them, dudes. That's a lot to 444 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: throw at them dudes. When we all had our hands 445 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: in the huddle, doesn't mean we all got the ball, 446 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: doesn't mean we all did the same thing with the ball. 447 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean we all were as productive with the ball 448 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: in our hand. But we all were playing that game. 449 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: Let's talk to it a little more. Of course, when 450 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: they get together, because they all want to be throwing 451 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: the damn ball, all of them are talking at the 452 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: same time, and Skip Bayless shrinks to the size of 453 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: a post his stamp. Oh man, all right, now he's 454 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: making mention of what I even may mention of, which 455 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: is real. Bayless did struggle to find his voice along Keyshawn, 456 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 1: Michael Irving and Richard Sherman that day. I don't know 457 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: if it's gotten better, but that day it was like, dog, 458 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: you are the moderator. You got mail he got and 459 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: I was like, all right, that ain't gonna last long. 460 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: And I heard it hasn't y'all tell me if it has. Okay, 461 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 1: So Dan LeBatard just basically hates what Skip Baylen's has 462 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: done the sports television. He hates the loud, brash, and 463 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: at times toxic nature of debate shows. That's real. And 464 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: they say, you might assume he would just turn away 465 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: from skipping not watch anymore. But Lebdard he can't do that, 466 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: And you want to know why because as much as 467 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: he hates sports debate shows, they say he loves to 468 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: debate their existence even more. Okay, let's get into this 469 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: because I set it up the right way, because you know, 470 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: I got love for all three of these characters. These 471 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 1: people in involved, Dan Lebatar, steven A Smith, Skip Batters. 472 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: I don't have beefs. I can disagree with your actions. 473 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 1: You disagree with too many of your actions, then I 474 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,360 Speaker 1: disagree with your ass But I ain't there with none 475 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 1: of these guys. But let's talk about what he's talking about. Ah, 476 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: the core of every debate is the dynamic of comparing, 477 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: of contrasting, and comparison is the thief of joy. Right, 478 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: So in any debate, you're gonna compare, You're gonna contrast, right, 479 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna compare two players against each other, or more, 480 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna compare teams against each other or more you're 481 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,959 Speaker 1: gonna contrast sports or more, you're gonna contrast everything that 482 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: you can see about the sports topic. And that's stealing 483 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: the joy away from some viewers when they watch debate shows. 484 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: But you gotta remember it's par for the course, that's 485 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: what it's built on. It's kind of like seeing blood 486 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: in a scary movie. H What are they doing showing 487 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: on that blood? It's a scary movie, though, why you mean? 488 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: What to do? It? All? Right? So I don't hate debate. 489 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: I don't hate debate shows. I'm not a fan of arguing. 490 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of argumentative shows. I'm not a 491 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,239 Speaker 1: fan of when they get to the point where they 492 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: stop debating and they start arguing. You want to know why, 493 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: because it gets too loud and no one is listening. 494 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: All they're doing is trying to talk next again. Get 495 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: the difference. You've ever been in a conversation with someone 496 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: who's not listening. They're just waiting to talk again. The 497 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: worst my wife pulls that sometimes on me. Maybe I'll 498 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: pull it back on her, but I don't feel it. 499 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: She man, and I'll be like, heay, did you hear 500 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 1: what I just say? She's like, and all they doing 501 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: is breathing, so when they're listening to you, they're not 502 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: really listening to you. They're just catching their breath and 503 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: being quiet so they could talk again. Right. I hate 504 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 1: that when I watch that, so I don't watch it. 505 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: That's my point. I don't give them my support because 506 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: I don't want to even go through it. But I 507 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: do like debate. I just don't like arguing. I don't 508 00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: like that part. So what I do is those people 509 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: and then I see what they're up to, all right. 510 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm watching the shows and I'm always looking at the 511 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: characters to see what they do, all right. So I'm 512 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: not a fan of this. And this is where this 513 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: is going with Dan Levttard, and it's getting sticky, all right. 514 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: Is when someone is doing something you used to do 515 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: and they're doing it bigger than you, better than you, 516 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: longer than you, whatever, different than you. And now you 517 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: got a problem with that, but you used to do 518 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: something like that. That ain't fair, right, But I'm with 519 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: Dan in this respect. I hate that there is a 520 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: sports media culture that rewards to this degree people that 521 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: haven't played the sport at that highest of level. It's 522 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: almost like a glass ceiling. I mean outside of like 523 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: Charles Barkley, and he doesn't do a daily show and 524 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: he doesn't do a debate show either, but so there's 525 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: really no one. But I'm like, his voice is loud, 526 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 1: Like if you had to say the top five personality 527 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 1: of the sports media, Charles Barkley would be one, right, 528 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 1: but let's just stick to the daily one, the ones 529 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: who talk to it. I hate that there's an industry 530 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 1: that's created the top dogs are the top critics who 531 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: never ever were the gladiators in the arena. Give it 532 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: to you like this, So Stephen A, Skip Colin, Jim Rome, money, 533 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: don't don't, don't sleep on Jim Rome, Dan Patrick, even 534 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: though he does it the best way, like the nicest 535 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: way or whatever most digestible way. Still like, they all 536 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: weren't gladiators in the arena at the top level, but 537 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: there is an industry that rewards them because it's journalism 538 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: as well. So I'm not slighting them, but I'm like, damn, nobody, nobody, nobody, 539 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: but nobody keeps wet is in the top top tier 540 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: doing this, that did that? Huhh. That seems a little 541 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: intentional to me, because you know what, culture is culture 542 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: is what's rewarded. Who gets the most rewards? It's not 543 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: former players. Now, you can say in different formats Charles 544 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: Barkley on the pregame postgame show, you could say Troy 545 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: Aikman when he's covering game. But I'm talking about in 546 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: the debate format, the ones that the commercials to the 547 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: live events. Where's the former player? Who's the top former player? 548 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: Shannon Sharp? I'll say Shannon Sharp. Yeah, maybe, but Shannon 549 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 1: Sharp is not there right now based on what he's doing. 550 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: Because these are all these guys got Not only do they 551 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: have their own shows, they employing other big dogs. That's 552 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 1: how they roll it, right. I work with Dan Patrick. 553 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: See it's real. So the lack of investment that these 554 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: guys have into sport like blood, sweat and tears being 555 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: the gladiator in that sport sometimes comes off as lack 556 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: of respect for those gladiators who did it right. And 557 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: maybe it's because they speak the language of the fans 558 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: a little more fluently because they didn't do it. The 559 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: fans didn't do it, so hey, we get it from 560 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: this perspective. It's all perspective game. Maybe it's just that 561 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 1: no ulterior motives, right, it could be, but where are 562 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: the former players who do it like that and get 563 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: up there like that because it's funny, like you watching 564 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: Ryan Clark and then you can see some of his 565 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: shifting and you're like, Ryan Clark used to play, But 566 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: then a lot of players calling you out because you 567 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: coming at him like you ain't play before, and you 568 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: shifting trying to maybe crack that top five by talking 569 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: a little more recklessly than a former player should or 570 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: a former player does. That's what the conversation is. So 571 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: thought it was really interesting how thinley veil Dan Levittard 572 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: is hiding his hate for Skip steven A, debate format, 573 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: whatever it may be. It's a lot going on right 574 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: there going down. So y'all think Dan's coming off as 575 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: bitter or sincerely just wanting better out of sports media, 576 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: particularly Skip and steven A. So is he better or 577 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: does he really just want better for the sports media 578 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: debate and is the debate format the problem or is 579 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: that just escape? Go tell me what y'all think about that, 580 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: because I don't know what to think right now. I 581 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: just know I like debate shows when they're debate shows, 582 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: but it's hard to stay at debate show without arguing. 583 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: That's when I lose it. So do you think debate 584 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: is dead in terms of a format stronger than ever? 585 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: Because undispute it is back and it's looking good. Or 586 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: who gives a damn? Just let them talk, just talk sports. 587 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: Tell me what you guys think in the comments and 588 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: let's beat that up.

Believe me. 615 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: I like, ah yeah, that was like nineteen eighty seven. 616 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: Now I'm going back.

All right, let's wrap up to the NFL 620 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: preseason right now. Because the NFL preseason came and went 621 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: three weeks. I swear I ain't watch any of it. 622 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: I'm like to watch, No, I can't lie. It was 623 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: on the background a couple of times where I was. 624 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: I gave it three quarters. Maybe I don't know about y'all, 625 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: but I just am not interested in the NFL preseason. 626 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: I know why they do it, but I am not 627 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: one of the reasons that I'm watching it. It's not 628 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: gonna happen. You get my money when it the regular 629 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: season counts, but you're not gonna get my money in 630 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: the preseason. So let's talk about NFL wrapped up his preseason, 631 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: and as expected, here we go four weeks, we saw 632 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: off training camp, three games, and we saw the contest 633 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. But here's the things that are happening. 634 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: Here are the highlights. We see some quarterback competitions become clearer, right, 635 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: Rock Party basically, Brock Purdy, come back, you healthy? All right, 636 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: it's your job. Sam Darnold, you're number two? What really? Oh? 637 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,479 Speaker 1: Over Trey Lance y'all gave up three first and went 638 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: up to them. Yeah, Tray Lance, you're gone. You go 639 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 1: to Dallas. So that's how that played out out there. 640 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: I was like, interesting because that's not how it started 641 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: off in training camp, but that's how it finished. Let's 642 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: talk about Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers saved the best for 643 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: last played in in the last preseason game, we saw 644 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: them go in their first drive, stalled, second drive touchdown, 645 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: I'm out peace, Okay, good to see. So quarterback situations 646 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: showed clarity, especially in some movement around there. Also we 647 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 1: saw some contract situations. It's some problems and some drama 648 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 1: that's looming large. Here we go. The forty nine ers 649 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: got a contract problem, Nick Bosam. Here's the quote. I 650 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: don't like the situation. Since our tenure here, we haven't 651 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: had a holdout anywhere towards this magnitude, So not something 652 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm comfortable with. That's from John Lynch. Is real, all right. 653 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: So we saw that happening. Defensive player of the year 654 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: who expects a mega deal right now may not be 655 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: getting a mega offer. So we got to see how 656 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: that plays out. That was like the story in terms 657 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: of contracts this preseason. Also we got the rise of 658 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 1: the joint practices, right, that's what they turn it. A 659 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: lot of joint practices, actually a record number this year. 660 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: Twenty seven teams schedule joint workouts and a couple of 661 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,279 Speaker 1: them had them and they even had to cancel them. 662 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: We saw the one that got to cancel when Houston 663 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: and New Orleans and Tennessee and New England. But the 664 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: point is they like that more than they even like 665 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: the preseason games, or at least preseason practices. Let's go 666 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: at it. It's a weird temple when you're going out 667 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 1: there playing in these games in the preseason, and it's 668 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: a weirder tempo when you're in practice, and it's one 669 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: of those joint practices. But coaches like it because you 670 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 1: get more intensity than a normal practice, but less intensity 671 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: than a game where somebody can really get hurt. So 672 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: it's kind of like that sweet spot. That's where they are. 673 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 1: And another thing that caught noticed was coaches helping out 674 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: their assistance. Head coaches helping out their assistance. We saw 675 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: what Mike Rabol did obviously, and he deserves a lot 676 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: of credit for what he did. Coach said that hopefully 677 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 1: more coaches will give assistant coaches opportunities to do this 678 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 1: because there's nothing better than actually getting the experience. So 679 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: that's just basically the preseason and the nutshell what happened 680 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: back clarity and some issues, some trades. We saw that 681 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: contract situations. We still know what's going on with Jonathan Taylor. 682 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: Come back, he's on the puff list, etc. But also 683 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 1: these teams finding sweeter ways, better ways to get themselves 684 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 1: prepared for the regular season without harming themselves. All Right, 685 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: here's the thing about preseason. It doesn't count, but it matters. 686 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: For real, it doesn't count. Go out there and have 687 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: nine sacks don't mean you're gonna ball out this year. 688 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: Go out there and have zero sacks don't mean you 689 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 1: gonna suck this year. Throw no touchdowns don't mean you're 690 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: gonna be sorry, you know, etc. So I always looked 691 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: at the preseason like, since I don't really get a 692 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: great read out of it, and it's only really eight 693 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,839 Speaker 1: jobs up for grabs, Ah, I'll skip it. Another month 694 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: with the itdy biddies, another month of just chilling before 695 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: when the regular season starts next week, we all locked in. 696 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: Sunday gone, Thursday gone, Monday gone, what other day? Saturday? 697 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 1: At the end of the season gone, Like you got me, 698 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 1: that's my honeydew list. Honey, you know what I'm about 699 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 1: to do? Watch some football too. That's life for us. Right, So, 700 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 1: I know it doesn't count, but it matters. But also 701 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: I always thought it was weird how you play pop Warner. 702 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: You play high school, no preseason, you play in college, 703 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 1: no preseason. You get to the highest level and all 704 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 1: of sudden we gotta get prepared for the season. I'm like, what, 705 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: I don't play my whole life getting unprepared when I 706 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: played my whole life without a preseason, and now you're 707 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: gonna tell me I need a preseason. Oh, I know why, 708 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 1: I dud y'all want to make that money? Them season 709 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: tickets plus them. I got season tickets to the Chargers 710 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: plus they throw in and we had one. Yeah, we 711 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 1: had one of the three, So one home game, bory preseason. Bro, 712 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go late, leave early, and I ain't even 713 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 1: go at all. Right, gave it to the foundation to 714 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:53,479 Speaker 1: give to two lucky guests four four tickets each, yep, 715 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: eight total tickets. They went to the games, two sets 716 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: of people, great time, great families. So all that. Man, 717 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 1: I don't get it, y'all. Like the preseason, y'all tell 718 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,839 Speaker 1: me for real, because I'm like, I do not get it. 719 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: What was the most interesting thing that happened this preseason 720 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: to you? Please inform me because I ain't watching any right, 721 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: And what surprised you this preseason? And do you want 722 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 1: to eliminate preseason like they do in college, like they 723 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: do in high school, like they doing pop one like 724 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 1: they do an NFL flag everywhere? Ain't no preseason, man, 725 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,800 Speaker 1: So do y'all want it to end right here as well? 726 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,799 Speaker 1: All right, y'all, y'all know what this time is? We 727 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 1: ended with, Oh no, we don't yet. No, it's time 728 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 1: to funk up some comments, that's right, and then I 729 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 1: might have to give away my swagg away A psyched 730 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 1: y'all out, because I psyched myself out. First, let's talk 731 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: about Joe Cina, all right, Joe Cina's back. We barely 732 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: heard more than four sentences at a time for Joe 733 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: Cina or Rachel. We don't know if they're good at 734 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 1: giving opinions or analysis. Oh really, so when they were 735 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: on they ain't get much into it or ain't they 736 00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: ain't go there. I'll watch it. I'll tell you what 737 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: I think. I ain't see it. So it takes seven 738 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 1: people in a rapper to replace little old Shannon Sharp. 739 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: Shannon got traded for three all stars, two first round picks, 740 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: and the player to be named later. That's funny. I 741 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: like it because he added all the faces we know, 742 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 1: and like, that's real. We don't have a problem with 743 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: any of these people. Honestly, if he didn't bring them on, 744 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 1: we probably wouldn't see them again unless they started up 745 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: on it or something. So what he's doing is smart 746 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 1: and it's entertaining, and it's definitely better than first take. Really, 747 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:30,280 Speaker 1: first take is effing boring and Molly is Hella annoying. 748 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: Skip needs to figure out how to get Jalen over there. Interesting, Well, 749 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: Jayalen's a free agent, right so he could go and 750 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: basketball season hasn't started yet. You never know. Inside the 751 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: NFL new cast, I'm cool with all except Cutler. I 752 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 1: would swap him with someone like Philip Rivers if he 753 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: has to be white quarterback or Paranoid Jones. If we're 754 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: going with anybody, think you mean pac Man Joints, if 755 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: we going with any player. I love how we all 756 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,760 Speaker 1: know every show got a type cast, Like, ah, Skip 757 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: gotta have some black players, you know what I'm saying, 758 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,479 Speaker 1: They gotta have a white quarterback. But it's interesting because 759 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: they don't have a Hall of Famer there, and people 760 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,240 Speaker 1: always say that you need a Hall of Famer. We'll see, Geez, 761 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 1: the budget for inside the NFL must have really got slashed. 762 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 1: Chanting Crowder is horrible. Really, I like him on the pivot. 763 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 1: The problem with this cast there are no legends. S Yeah, 764 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 1: I told y'all. They are all former average players, nobody 765 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: to make it a must watch. WHOA, Well glad they 766 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 1: ain't had me on here? Huh? And another average player? 767 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: Here we go? Forty nine is trade? No way in hell? 768 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: Fake smoke? Really you don't think so? No way they 769 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: can trade Nick Boson? What if they don't offer Nick Bosa? 770 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 1: What Nick Bosa won't which you think't gonna happen? He's 771 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: still like getting traded right here we go? Trade is 772 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,479 Speaker 1: asked to Dallas or the Jets boys stopped playing? All right? 773 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 1: You know that's crazy? All right, here's the last one. 774 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: Undrafted debate on that sounds like something that needs to 775 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,839 Speaker 1: be fixed. Getting drafted, no matter how late, should never 776 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: reward you less than not being drafted. You're right, like, 777 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: I'm a seventh rounder and I feel worse than a 778 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,839 Speaker 1: dude who went undrafted. Not only do I feel worse, 779 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 1: he got paid more, and he picked the spot he 780 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 1: got to pick where he got to go. Hey on, 781 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: No better fix that goodell. That's wrong, all the way wrong. 782 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: All right, y'all not wily Ism yet.

And that's 806 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:51,720 Speaker 1: the thing about a battle. You gotta have some tension. 807 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 1: It's a battle.

You know, I swear it's 812 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: just a psychological lesson plan.
