Speaker 1: All of our video is up on this little site

20
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: called Netflix. It's an app. I don't know if you've

21
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: ever heard of it, but all of our video up

22
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: on Netflix. Appreciate everyone that win. Check that out. Watch

23
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: is there, and I think we're doing pretty good. So

24
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: we'll just keep fired and let's talk some football. You

25
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: know there was David Montgomery was traded today to the

26
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: running back for the Detroit Lions was traded to the

27
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 1: Houston Texas, which I like to pick up. I think

28
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: everyone's kind of waiting right now on some news. One thing,

29
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,199
Speaker 1: Howie and Spy Tech are doing a pretty good job

30
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: of at least by the time you're listening to this.

31
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: It may there may be some stories, but there haven't been.

32
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: Like you know, how he has two offers on the

33
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: table for a first and a third Spy Tech, the

34
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: best offer he has so far right now is a first,

35
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: a second, and a fourth. Right that there hasn't really

36
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: been any of that with Max Crosby and AJ Brown,

37
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: which all signs point to. I think those guys getting traded,

38
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: but it's they did a pretty good job of keeping

39
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: under wraps, which I think shows you you know this

40
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: notion I was wrong about this, and this is what

41
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: I found out of the combine. He goes like AJ

42
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:29,359
Speaker 1: Brown a lot internally as a player, like they don't

43
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: view him as some problem child. Now he's emotional, but

44
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: it's not viewed this notion of like they're all on

45
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: the one guy side. They got a lot of love

46
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 1: for AJ Brown. So if you're gonna want AJ Brown

47
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: to be on your football team, it is going to

48
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: be an expensive endeavor to trade for him. I think

49
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 1: Albert Breer wrote today in his SI articles that like,

50
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: if you're gonna get AJ Brown, they ain't giving him away.

51
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: And I originally where I was wrong. I thought, well,

52
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 1: I'll be like a third round pick. No, they would

53
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: never trade him for a third round pick, trading for

54
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: our first Yeah, I mean they traded a first forum.

55
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: So it's basically be like, you got to use AJ Brown,

56
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl and then get rid of them

57
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: for the same price. Okay, let's start with Gene. Absolutely

58
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: love the pod. I appreciate it. Keep out the good

59
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: work with Jack. Need some words of encouragement. It's been

60
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: he's got the sniffles today, so it's been rough. We'll

61
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: probably talk about that the Dad Diaries. Maybe I'll do

62
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: the Dad Diaries in the middle of this mail bag.

63
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: On the Super Bowl, I think the players that win

64
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: it get one hundred and eighty eight K and the

65
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 1: losers get one hundred and thirty three K. Shares are

66
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: pittance compared to the financial normandy in the Super Bowl.

67
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: The players and the teams are the main attraction, and

68
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: the NFL puts out zero money for the halftime show.

69
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: Your thoughts the halftime show. What you get in return

70
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: has proven to be well worth doing fifteen to twenty minutes.

71
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: It isn't even that long for any artist, whatever genre

72
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: you're in, it is well worth it to do that

73
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: thing for free because of the amount of people that

74
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: watch you. Now, the players, I remember Richard Sherman telling

75
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: me this before when he was still playing. We were

76
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: dming and he was part of, you know, the player

77
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: union group that was negotiating against the owners. And one

78
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: thing was we were talking about the playoffs salaries. If

79
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: you're a player, you're making twenty million or thirty million

80
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: or hell ten million, you make, you take a huge

81
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: pay cut in the playoffs. Yet we see these playoff ratings.

82
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: Twenty five thirty forty million people watch the first round.

83
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: By the time we get to the championship games, you

84
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: have fifty million people watching. So you could argue they

85
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 1: are getting completely scammed on the playoffs now a little

86
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: bit like the halftime show. You you get value as

87
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: a player from the playoffs, right turned out, my ace's

88
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: a little hot in near It's like ninety degrees to day.

89
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: Is if you win in January, you up the value

90
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: of yourself as a player, But you are still taking

91
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: a calculated risk because if you get injured in the

92
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: second round of the playoffs and your contract is up,

93
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: or you don't have any guaranteed money, like you're kind

94
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: of shit out of luck. You're taking risks that other

95
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: guys that are at home are just simply not taking.

96
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: So I've thought this for a long time. How the

97
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,559
Speaker 1: players union doesn't fight for more money in these playoff games, where,

98
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: like you said, they are worth a ton of money.

99
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: Congrats on all the new success. Do you think the

100
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 1: new blueprint of a successful Super Bowl winning team is

101
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 1: quarterback on a discount or rookie contract with a great defense.

102
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: It seems over the last few years this has been

103
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: the trend and the best way to go about building

104
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: a contender. The Chiefs route liars, but they paid everybody.

105
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: Now the defense and the offense is not strong. So

106
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: the question is really well, teams continue to pay sixty

107
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: million dollars a year to a quarterback or or trade

108
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: and try to find one every four years. Whenever you

109
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: have a top guy, you're never gonna trade him. I

110
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: think the problem teams have made is paying like twoas

111
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: making fifty five million dollars this year, Like that is

112
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 1: I don't even know the proper adjective to describe how

113
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: crazy that is. I mean, that's even when he was

114
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: decent a couple of years ago. It's like he should

115
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: have been relative to the other quarterbacks. Why do you

116
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: get to match the previous quarterbacks? Like if Josh Allen signs,

117
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: if Lamar signs, if Herbert signs, if some of these guys,

118
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,679
Speaker 1: if Dak Prescott signs, why does TUA get to match them? Okay,

119
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: you sign, Like why do you get to make a

120
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: percentage of what they made, you know, in terms of

121
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: like one to one? Why not?

122
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: Like yeah, you probably you know they're making forty five fifty,

123
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: We'll offer you twenty two.

124
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: Like whatever happened to that world? It happens in basically

125
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: every other industry, but for whatever reason, with quarterbacks, it

126
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: not only stopped happening that these contracts got way out

127
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: of whack that you see this Kyler Intua situation that

128
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: are complete anchors and disasters for their franchisees. So I listen,

129
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: you got to sign a quarterback when he's good on

130
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: your own team. But like the Texans, they're not giving CJ.

131
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: Stroud a contract since this offseason because they don't know

132
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: if he's good enough now next year if he proves it,

133
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 1: maybe next offseason. But like, what about playing it out?

134
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: Pick up a fifty year option? Like's the what's the

135
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: impatience by all these teams? I don't understand the lack

136
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: of patience with these quarterback contracts. I never have and

137
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: never will. You have nothing but patience with every other position. Yeah,

138
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: with quarterback, it's like, oh, Kyler Murray three years in

139
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: the league, give him a hundred and fifty million dollars, Like,

140
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: are we sure? Has he ever won a playoff game?

141
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: No?

142
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: Has he ever won the division? No? You had like

143
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: a great ten games? Great would be strong? You get

144
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: a good ten game stretch. I think how crazy that

145
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: is because two threw some touchdowns and September and October.

146
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: I just think it's bad business. It's just bad business.

147
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: What about Al Davis on Collins Show. I heard you

148
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: talk about Howie and Schneider have gone to the Super

149
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: Bowl with different coaches and quarterback combos, But you forgot

150
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: to mention Al Davis and he did it with four

151
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: different coach and quarterback combos. Uh, maybe well before my time.

152
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: But he's only got three Super Bowls, right, He's got

153
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: the one with Madden in the seventies, He's got one

154
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 1: with Plunket and one with Flores Or were they both

155
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,839
Speaker 1: with plunk It a little before my time born in

156
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: eighty four. I know Plunkett was would they win eighty

157
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: two and eighty seven or something? I don't know. I'm

158
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: a little out of it, but I thought it was

159
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: was plunk at the quarterback for both. Could be wrong

160
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: on that one. Also, I just Howie and Onsider are

161
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: the GMS. I mean, Al Davis owned the team, so

162
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. To me. Al's comp is

163
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: like Jerry Jones or Paul Brown, like he was the owner,

164
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: coached a little bit, uh personnel guy. I wouldn't compare

165
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: Al Davis to Howie Rose. Al Davis signed the checks.

166
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: How he doesn't sign the checks. Jeffrey does so it's

167
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying, but I don't think it's

168
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: like an apples and apples comparison. Hear me out, Why

169
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: is Nick Sirianni criticizing here? Why is Nick Sirianna criticized?

170
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: But Harrorboss celebrated both of o elite gms, great players

171
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: picked by those gms, elite coordinators, great ownership. But Nick

172
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: is always laughed at and John is celebrated. It's a

173
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: great question. I mean, I think there's a branding thing

174
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: with the Harrboss. When you look and think and talk

175
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: about the Harrballs, you think kind of football royalty. So

176
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: I think that's part of it. I think John has

177
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: done it longer. John's had multiple GMS technically because Ozzie retired,

178
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: and he's had DaCosta for a while. I tried to

179
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: talk to DaCosta, but you know, he's a little cold,

180
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't really have many ends or a

181
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: way to start conversation. And as someone told me, he's

182
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: not a huge bullshitter, and we didn't bullshit. There wasn't

183
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 1: really any I just tried to start a conversation. Cassario,

184
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: who's pretty serious, too easy to talk to, DaCosta was not,

185
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: which he's a good GM. I mean, he knows what

186
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: he's doing, so I don't know, that's a great question.

187
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 1: Sirianni's done it a lot, like I mean, Harbaugh coach

188
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: for eighteen years. If Sirianni goes on to have his

189
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: career for eighteen years with the Philadelphia Eagles, he will get,

190
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: as the kids would say, mad flowers. But I think

191
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 1: that's part of it, the branding thing. If his name

192
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 1: was Nick Harbaugh and he was like the step brother

193
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: of those guys Jack had like some you know, some

194
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,200
Speaker 1: affair and had and had Nick in Ohio like in

195
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 1: the eighties, I think we would probably discuss him differently.

196
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: I think that's fair. Congrats on your baby boy. Welcome

197
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 1: to the old dad's club. I'm forty with a two

198
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: year old of my own. We're not old now, but

199
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: when our boys are in middle school, will be in

200
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: our fifties, and you know, he'll have a classmate with

201
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: a thirty year old dad, but he'll be a deadbeat

202
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: with a neck tattoo. I'm not worried about that guy.

203
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: But there'll also be a thirty three year old, good

204
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: looking dad with a shit together making seven figures. Fuck that, dude.

205
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: You know what's funny is I don't necessarily think like

206
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: age in relation to my kid, in the sense of,

207
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 1: like I don't feel I have more energy now than

208
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: I did at twenty eight. I'm more willing to spend

209
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: time and do things with family that I would not

210
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: have been at that age. Like I was not equipped

211
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: to have a kid in my twenties or even the

212
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: may of my thirties. I probably could have had a

213
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: kid starting around thirty five thirty six, but before that

214
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 1: I would have been a complete disaster. There would have

215
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: been an auto divorce. There would have been an auto

216
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: it would not have worked, and it would have been

217
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: a shitty spot for the kid. So maybe some of

218
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: you guys are more mature. We all have different paths

219
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: in life. But like I am completely unfazed, you know,

220
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: about age when it comes to my kid. I'm an

221
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: energetic motherfucker. So I you know, I got no worries

222
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: about my age. But I hear what you're saying. Anyways,

223
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: My question for the bag is why don't we see

224
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: more tag and trades. Most teams don't use their franchise

225
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: tag and let solid players walk for nothing. I feel

226
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: like it used to happen a lot more because I

227
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: think if you tag a guy one, if I tag

228
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: a guy, I haven't even seen all the concrete tag numbers.

229
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: But if I tag a guy for thirty million dollars

230
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 1: that first day of free agency, thirty million dollars, I

231
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 1: have to have salary cap space for thirty million dollars.

232
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: So if I'm going to tag a guy, I have

233
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: to be prepared to keep the player right. So it's

234
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: it's it's not really a mechanism. I'm recording this twelve

235
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: hours before the franchise tag deadline. I guess you could

236
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: trade the player over the course of the next week

237
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: before free agency. That assumes that he signs his franchise tender.

238
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: But I think it's gotten really complicated with the size

239
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: of the contracts. Would be my guess. I think Howie

240
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: those type guys would have more of like a concrete

241
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 1: thought out answer. But my kind of macro view is

242
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 1: once I tag a guy, more than likely I'm keeping

243
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: him because I have a lot of the cap space,

244
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: which is really really big. Even you know, Kyle Pitts,

245
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,719
Speaker 1: George Pickens, like you play on a fully guaranteed one

246
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: year salary, Pits is cheaper than Pickens, which is which

247
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: is kind of crazy. They're kind of similar players based

248
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: on last year. I know they're different positions, but like

249
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: Pitts is cheap because of the position he plays. But

250
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: if you franchise tag a tackle or a guard, you know,

251
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: or a or a pass rusher, they're pretty expensive. And

252
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 1: obviously quarterbacks. It's why the Daniel Jones situation is kind

253
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: of interesting. Question on something Grey co Sel said, no

254
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: disrespect to this guy. He seems like he definitely knows

255
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: what he's talking about. But saying amen, Rah does not

256
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: compare to Chase or Jefferson is something I can't let slide.

257
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: And the type of toughness that he plays with is

258
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: something you can't teach. But not only that, the great

259
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: run after catch and route runner. I don't know what

260
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: is your opinion. Also, do you think Mackay Lemon is

261
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: a top ten kind of prospect? If you were doing

262
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: a draft with the thirty two GMS and there were

263
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: three wide receivers and it was Jefferson, Chase and Amana

264
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: Saint Brown, I think Jefferson Chase would be a little

265
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: in the eye of beholder. Some guys would like Jefferson,

266
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: some guys would like Chase. I probably prefer Chase. But

267
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: talking to Jefferson at the Super Bowl, I mean, he's

268
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: he's a pretty impressive guy. I Chase. His physicalities, you know,

269
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: in the prime of his career is pretty unique. I mean,

270
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: and I bet on him on some props in some

271
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: games he's come through. But they're both elite players. I

272
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: think Amorra would be last in all thirty two jams.

273
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: But whoever got Amenra in that like would not be disappointed.

274
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: So I don't think he's viewed as good as those guys.

275
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: But what he brings to the table toughness, leadership, like

276
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: you said, run after the catch. I mean, he's basically

277
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: like the team leader you're or one of them for

278
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: the Lions. So yeah, I have I don't think you're

279
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: wrong in what you're being offended. I'm sure you're a

280
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: Liance fan, but or maybe a USC fan. But he's

281
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: not wrong Greg when he says those guys are better

282
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 1: than Amen Ross Saint Brown. But Amen Ross Saint Brown.

283
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: When his career is over, a statistical sheet is gonna

284
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: look like fucking Jerry Rice. I mean, how many balls

285
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: did you catch every year, so I hear what you're saying.

286
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 1: The Makai I had some people say that they didn't

287
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: think it was like a top twenty, top twenty five player,

288
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: so I know there's some stuff going around. I haven't

289
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: personally heard about his interviews. You know, there was the

290
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: one clip of him talking to the media, which was

291
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: a little weird. I don't know if he looked high

292
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: or something, but he's definitely gonna be Some people are

293
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: gonna like him and some people are gonna not like him.

294
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: And when you compare to amen Ra and when you

295
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: compare to Puka Nakula, those guys weren't top twenty picks.

296
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: So part of what makes them so special is like

297
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: where their teams got them, which kind of complicates the matter.

298
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: I think this wide receiver class is kind of viewed

299
00:16:55,160 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: as average at best. Today's show is brought to you

00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: Uh what, I love the pod. Been listening for years.

331
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 1: Totally random, but I heard you mentioned peptides in one

332
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: of your pods not long ago. I just started taking

333
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: this one called Retaturtide, and holy shit, it's a game changer. Yeah.

334
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: I officially started taking them today, so I got one.

335
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,719
Speaker 1: Like a part of it is I feel like I

336
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 1: got fat. You know, I gain like probably twenty pounds

337
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: over the course of the last several years. Now, some

338
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: of that is my diet is not ideal, but I

339
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: work out. I mean, I would say most weeks, seven

340
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 1: days a week, and part of it, as you get older,

341
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 1: it's just your body. I don't know, it dramatically changes.

342
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 1: And then I had buddies my brother included, that use

343
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 1: these things, and I'm like, this is incredible. So I

344
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 1: was like, listen, I don't necessarily want to take a

345
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: shot every day. So I went to this clinic where

346
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: I got the allergy test, the food allergy test, and

347
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: they have dissolvables for your mouth, so I have one

348
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: that's like for your gut, health and skin and just

349
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: kind of body, and then another one that's more like

350
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 1: mu soul slash, a fat burning one. I don't have them.

351
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: They're in my in the house, but I'm fired up

352
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 1: because Jackson talked to McAfee. McAfee talks about this like

353
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: he loves them. People live by him. Everyone I know

354
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: that that uses them looks fantastic. I'm not a GLP

355
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: one guy. I don't necessarily need GLP ones, but I

356
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: just need to tighten up because it's not it's not

357
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: like I don't work out. I work out all the time,

358
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: and I feel like my improvement in the gym just

359
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: stopped and I just got to dial in more of

360
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: the diet. That's gonna be a huge point of emphasis

361
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: the rest of twenty twenty six, because you know, you

362
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: can outrun a bad diet, especially when you're a guy

363
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: in his early forties. White guy. The Raiders are now

364
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: moving to a three four based defense. While I like

365
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: the move to a three to four because I feel

366
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: like guys like Tyree Wilson could be naturally moved to

367
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: a big three four end and Malcolm koons maybe a

368
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: great outside edge. I feel like this move gets us

369
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: away from Crosby. I don't see Crosby's success as a

370
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: three four end, and while he's explosive when standing up,

371
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,440
Speaker 1: I don't think he has the hips for an outside

372
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: linebacker in the three four Could the Raiders have hired

373
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 1: Crosby's buddy as the new DC only for him to

374
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: implement a defense that is not in Crosby's best interest?

375
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: Is his time in Vegas really done? I would expect

376
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: him to be traded, and I'm adamant. I think they

377
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 1: get two ones from Max Crosby because of the amount

378
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 1: of people bidding on him. But could Max Crosby play

379
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: in the three four defense? I believe he could. He's

380
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: not a three four D. I think he would be

381
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 1: a stand up pass rusher. I think he could be good.

382
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: I mean, James Harrison is exactly von Miller bending the edge.

383
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: Ahmad Brooks, you know when he played for the forty

384
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: nine Ers, like Max Crosby be good in any defense.

385
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 1: But my expectation over the course of the next six, seven,

386
00:21:53,760 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: eight days is Max Crosby is unofficially traded. So yeah,

387
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: I didn't see. Honestly, I didn't even know they were

388
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: running a three four defense. I think what the Raiders

389
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: are gonna need to do is go all in on offense,

390
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: the offensive line, the quarterback, and then figure out the

391
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: defense with time in cap space. I mean they made

392
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: that move. It wasn't their fault when they signed Christian

393
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: Wilkins and then he messed up his knee and he

394
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: was never the same. That hurt NFL draft question? How

395
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: do you explain when draft analysts say things like there

396
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: are only fifteen to twenty true first rounders in the

397
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 1: NFL class, when by definition, thirty two players will go

398
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: in the first round. Isn't that kind of like complaining

399
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: that houses in your neighborhood are overpriced. Even if you

400
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't pay that much, someone will. That becomes the market price.

401
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: I get the scouts grade players based on past drafts

402
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: or quote true talent, but the end of the day,

403
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 1: draft value is like anything in business, it's worth what

404
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 1: someone will pay. So isn't this whole not enough first

405
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 1: round talent thing more of an NFL scouting snob take

406
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: than in a market reality? I think where you're missing

407
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: the boat on the housing analogy. Let's say I've been

408
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 1: a nice neighborhood and every house is between like two

409
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 1: and a half and five million. Well, your five million

410
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 1: dollar houses are gonna be nicer, right. Maybe it's a

411
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: golf golfing community. Maybe your nicer houses are obviously bigger,

412
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,239
Speaker 1: more modern on the golf course, and some of your

413
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: other ones are not on the golf course and maybe

414
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 1: not as big. Well, if I have five million dollars

415
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: to spend on a house and all the nice houses

416
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: are taken, I would just wait. I might not buy

417
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: one of those two and a half three million dollar

418
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: homes if those are the only ones available. Well, if

419
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 1: you are the Baltimore Raven, they're a bad example. Let's

420
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: use the forty nine ers and you're picking pick twenty seven.

421
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 1: If if you can't trade back or trade up, you

422
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: have to make a selection. So in your analogy of

423
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 1: a market, you know it's supply and demand, Well, I

424
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: have to make a pick even though the guy I'm

425
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: picking I don't have a first round grade on. That's

426
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: what it means that in a given draft, there's twenty

427
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 1: to fifteen guys with first round grades, but there are

428
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: thirty two selections and you have to select in the twenties. Now,

429
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: sometimes one of the guys that you have a first

430
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: round grade on falls to you in the twenties, but

431
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 1: you don't have a choice. There's no walk away price, right.

432
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: If you have a widget supply and demand and you

433
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 1: want me to pay X for it and I think

434
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: it's worth why we won't do a transaction. If I

435
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: want to sell you my computer and I say here,

436
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars for my computer, and you say I'm

437
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 1: only willing to spend fifteen hundred dollars for your computer,

438
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: we would not do a deal, even though you need

439
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 1: a computer, and you would just figure out and you'd

440
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: find a place to get a computer at the price

441
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: you want to spend. Well, I'm at pick twenty six.

442
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: I you know I can't trade back into the second round.

443
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: I'm stuck making a selection. So it's it's not apples

444
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: d apples that way. It's not they're not being snobby.

445
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: They're simply just saying that on this given year, on average,

446
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 1: they're nineteen players with first round grades, so they're gonna

447
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: be guys that get drafted that are not viewed as

448
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,360
Speaker 1: their second round players. But you have to pay them

449
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: a first round contract. Like. Part of the power of

450
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: the first round contract is I get the fifth year option,

451
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: and your contract's fully guaranteed once you get past the

452
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: first round. Contracts aren't fully guaranteed for all four years.

453
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying, but you're not crazy or anything.

454
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 1: It's just not snobby. They're just saying that there aren't

455
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: thirty two players. Like the Chiefs when they took Clyde

456
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: Edwards Laira, they didn't have a first round grade on them,

457
00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: but they got to pick someone at thirty two now Simmons.

458
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: Last year WI win, the Chiefs take them at thirty one,

459
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: they probably did have first run grade on so you

460
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: just you never know year to year. I just watched

461
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: Colin call the Cardinals a stinky pile of garbage and

462
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 1: said their ownership and franchise is just as its function

463
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 1: as the Browns Jets. I do not follow the team

464
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: and live on the East Coast. Do you believe it's

465
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: really bad in that building? If you're an owner, one

466
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: thing that's crazy to me. In the NFL Bashat he'd

467
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: probably be an outlier because he's buddies with some of

468
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 1: these guys. But most owners don't spend that much time

469
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: with the players. Hell even spend that much time with

470
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: the coaches. Owners are out of sight, out of mind,

471
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: just cashing them checks for the card. Now, what happens

472
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: in your building is a reflection of the owner. But

473
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: for the NFLPA grades that got leaked, Michael Bidwell got

474
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,919
Speaker 1: an F. Do you know how you have to be?

475
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: It doesn't even have to be a football team if

476
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: you and I just work somewhere. And for most of

477
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 1: those people that give him an F, I would imagine

478
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 1: they don't have like some crazy relationship with the guy.

479
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: So you would be working a place and you know

480
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: who owns the company and you say he's that bad

481
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: to give someone an F. I think that speaks to

482
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 1: everything you need to know is the players think that

483
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: poorly of the guy that owns the team that they

484
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: gave him an F Like that, to me, is very

485
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: very difficult to do C minus like you get to

486
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: C minus. I think you're kind of a loser as

487
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: an owner at F Everyone's always said, I listen, I

488
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: have never dealt with the guy all of my life.

489
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: They've been viewed as a cheap franchise. It's just kind

490
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: of a clown operation. I mean, if you're a Cardinal fan,

491
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 1: you just pray to the day that he sells the team,

492
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 1: which doesn't feel like it's happening anytimes. Loved the pot.

493
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 1: I had a kid six months ago and absolutely lost

494
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: it when you called the too many clothes for Gazi

495
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 1: rookie mistake. Somehow they go through three outfits before noon.

496
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: It is. I used to think we had too many diapers.

497
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 1: I used to think we had too many clothes. Little

498
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: Dad diaries right now, while we're on the subject, my

499
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 1: extended family, so my brother in law, his wife, their child,

500
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: my mother in law all were here last week a

501
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: little before I left, and then when I was at

502
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: the combine and I think their daughter was sick. I

503
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 1: came back sick. Jack has the sniffles now and it sucks,

504
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: you know, and you don't realize, which makes sense once

505
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: you're around a little infant. They can't blow their nose,

506
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: so there is snot in his nose and he can't

507
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: blow it. So they make these tools like a suction

508
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 1: cup type thing. Well, the one we have is too big,

509
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: like his nostril isn't big enough. He also has this

510
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: like plug in electrical power one that you put up

511
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: his nose, press a button and it sucks. You gotta

512
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 1: hold his head because you know he doesn't love it.

513
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: But this thing was just ripping snot out of his nose.

514
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: It was incredible to watch the amount because you can

515
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: hear him. It's you feel so bad for him. He

516
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 1: doesn't know how to do snot rockets. He just lost

517
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: no man's land. I try to tell him. He doesn't

518
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: speak English yet, so you can't tell him to breathe

519
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: through his mouth. It's rough. And I got the saline

520
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: thing you put over their face, and it like mists,

521
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: is supposed to make clear him up a little bit.

522
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: So we got all the devices going. But when you

523
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: hear him just congested, you feel for the little guy

524
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: because there's nothing he can do. Doesn't know you can

525
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: breathe out of his mouth. He doesn't know how to

526
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: blow his nose, doesn't know how to do a snot

527
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: rocket beside when he sneezes and he's on your shoulder

528
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: and then he got crap all over you. But the

529
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 1: as you learn as a dad, my question as a

530
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs fan, living in case I stop doubting Bretbeach he's

531
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 1: playing chess while I'm yelling at the board. But I

532
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: keep seeing Jordan Love mock to us. You always say

533
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: the draft is an economic value exercise, So is the

534
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 1: value actually there? I'd rather invest in the trenches, especially

535
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: if Bain is still on the board. Am I crazy?

536
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 3: Love?

537
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: Really good? Love's really good? But he's not Adrian Peterson.

538
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a franchise altering back. He's pretty good.

539
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: I think there would be a lot of people that

540
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: would say he could be like an Adrian Peterson in

541
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: terms of impact. I don't think he's gonna be there

542
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: at nine. So we had this conversation yesterday when I

543
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: talked about Jeremiah Love. I would not expect him to

544
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: be there at pick nine. So I think this conversation

545
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 1: that's been going on for a while with the Chiefs

546
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: actually take a running back in the first round. I

547
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 1: don't even think it's gonna be an option. I think

548
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: it's possible that Jeremiah Love doesn't take it out of

549
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: the top five. Is there any world in which the

550
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: Ravens would consider trading Lamar Jackson say he indicates he

551
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 1: wants to leave, or the new contract negotiations are difficult.

552
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,239
Speaker 1: Does three first round picks from the Jets or the

553
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: Raiders offering you their first pick and the twenty six

554
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: Mendoza get your attention to me. The Raiders, you're so

555
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: in with Mendoza, the rookie contract you hired Kobiak, like

556
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: you're just going that direction. The Jets, the contract negotiations,

557
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: I would imagine are going to be difficult, like they

558
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 1: have had difficult contract negotiations in the past, and they

559
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: don't have a choice, right because it was his cap number,

560
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 1: like seventy two million dollars. I would see no world

561
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: in which Lamar Jackson has traded. So my expectations would

562
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: be they say at the combine, Lamar Jackson's not only

563
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: gonna be on the right, He's gonna get a contract extension.

564
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: Bushatti said it the day that he fired Harball. It's

565
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 1: just gonna be interesting. What do they do. They give

566
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: him like a three year contract extension worth like a

567
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy million dollars, every penny guaranteed, Like

568
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 1: I don't exactly know the mechanisms and how they're gonna

569
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: do this, but you know, I think jesse Mentor took

570
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 1: the job like they're going all in on Lamar. I

571
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: know it kind of went viral last week with the

572
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator saying because Lamar has been skipping OTA's I

573
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 1: would imagine Lamar part of this contract negotiations, Hey, we

574
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: want you to be around in the spring, which I

575
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: totally don't blame him, Like I would rather be in

576
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 1: Florida in the spring than Baltimore, which I kind of

577
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: never blame players. Wait, it's not mandatory, and you're in

578
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: a city that I don't want to be in. Right

579
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: besides when we're playing, So I'm at home training and

580
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: I've proven that that I'm good and we're gonna be ready.

581
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: But like once you start losing, that change a little bit.

582
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: I would expect a multi year deal worth a lot

583
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: of money for Lamar Jackson. What do you think would

584
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 1: get a better TV rating? A regular season NFL game

585
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 1: Chiefs versus the Bills, full pads, usual rules but flag

586
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: football not tackle. Or the NBA Finals between the Spurs

587
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: and Toronto. I mean that wouldn't even be close. I

588
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 1: don't think a casual sports fan could name one player

589
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: in the Toronto Raptors, not one. I think the one

590
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: thing being at the combine. You know, my wife has

591
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: really got me in the Bravo and reality television Love

592
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: is Blind on Netflix. I feel like I've watched like

593
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: the last four seasons, which if you go on Love

594
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 1: is Blind, you either truly and we've talked about this before,

595
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 1: like want to get famous or are just pretty desperate

596
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 1: because listen, for whatever reason, I'm not the best looking guy.

597
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: I've never had that much trouble getting a date. I

598
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: can't imagine going on Love is Blind if my number

599
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: one goal wasn't trying to gain followers and be famous,

600
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 1: because some of these people are truly going on to

601
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: try to find love, Like you're not gonna find love

602
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: on Love is Blind. But like that show, I'm sure

603
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: it does really good numbers for Netflix. Right, and football,

604
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: all it's become now is a television show. It's all

605
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,479
Speaker 1: about media when it comes to football. They have done

606
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: such a good job of making everything matter. Like, what

607
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: was the most important thing that happened in the combine?

608
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. It was, all the coaches and

609
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: GM's talking that was one hundred percent the most important thing.

610
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 1: Because all those clips go viral, it's a really big deal.

611
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 1: It's why the combine. Even if it changes over the

612
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: course of time, that element of it will not. If

613
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: you're the NFL in the middle of February or late

614
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 1: or you know, early March, you want those guys making

615
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: some headlines saying some shit. That's why this league generates

616
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 1: so much money. There's interest and you know some of

617
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: these guys having talks since December. So the television aspect

618
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,360
Speaker 1: of this sport is no one could have envisioned that

619
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: in the Al Davis, you know, Lamar Hunt way back

620
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: in the day, Pete Roselle days. But I'm sorry, no chance.

621
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:36,280
Speaker 1: What it has become, which is the amount of people

622
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,359
Speaker 1: they are doing kind of what I do in the

623
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,880
Speaker 1: digital world that can run their own businesses or companies

624
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: built around digital stuff around football is pretty eye opening.

625
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: Like one takeaway I had like if I ran a

626
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,360
Speaker 1: radio station and I went to that, I'd be like,

627
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 1: where fucked? We might as well double down and start

628
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 1: a digital company if we have some talent on the radio,

629
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: because we got no shot to com heat with these

630
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: digital companies that are so fluid they can pivot in

631
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 1: any moment. And that's one takeaway I had from the

632
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 1: Super Bowl and the you know they call it radio row.

633
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 1: It's digital drive is what I consider it. And it's

634
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 1: all because of this massive television show, which is the

635
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: National Football League.

636
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 3: All right, fellas, let's be real. Buying men's jewelry used

637
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 3: to be a nightmare. It was low quality junk that

638
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 3: snapped after a week. We've all been there. That's why

639
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,320
Speaker 3: I rock with GLD.

640
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 1: They changed the game.

641
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 3: Many of you have participated as well. You know that

642
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 3: GLD uses real gold, none of that cheap stuff. Every

643
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 3: single stone is meticulously handset. Plus the proprietary production process

644
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 3: make sure you're getting.

645
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 1: The highest quality jewelry possible.

646
00:36:56,160 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 3: You could literally see and feel the difference and listen,

647
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 3: don't just take my word for it. Over two million

648
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 3: customers and fifty thousand five star reviews back it up.

649
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 3: Not to mention, it's worn by some of the biggest

650
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:14,360
Speaker 3: names out there, Justin Bieber, Micah Parsons, Tyreek Hill, Malik Dahbors,

651
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 3: and a ton more guys. The best part, every single

652
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 3: piece is guaran teed for life. It's literally built to

653
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 3: last that long for life. GLD has official collabs with

654

661
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 3: insane deal. Use the code the number three and out

Speaker 3: to get fifty percent off at GLD dot com. That's

663
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 3: fifty percent off with code three and out at GLD

664
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 3: dot com.

665
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: Question for the mailbag, I'm always intentional to listen to

666
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,839
Speaker 1: your show for your direct feed versus the same show

667
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: distributed through cowards feed because I assume it's better for

668
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 1: you economically with how listeners and metrics are used for

669
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: your advertisement sales. Is this true or I'm wrong in

670
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: your assumption. I get credit for the listen no matter what.

671
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: Obviously the columns feed from a distribution standpoint has changed

672
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 1: the amount of people that have heard me. But in

673
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 1: terms of economically, we're on business together. So when we sell,

674
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: you know, an ad to hard rock or to you

675
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 1: name the company. Reef makes fantastic shoes. They sent me

676
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 1: a couple of free shoes they've been advertising. You know.

677
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 1: I've always had their sandals they send me a pair

678
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 1: of sandals too, but their tennis shoes or just like

679
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 1: kind of nice, like all white shoe. I warded the

680
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: combine I wore at the super Bowl. It looks good,

681
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 1: it feels good. No free ads here, but like it

682
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,880
Speaker 1: all goes into the same umbrella. I just push you

683
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,719
Speaker 1: to my feed because this all could end tomorrow. Like

684
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: who knows. I'm not, you know, cocky and arrogant enough

685
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: to think this is last forever. That's not the way

686
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 1: the world works. So that feed is mine, the three

687
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: and outfeed, so more people that are just subscribed there

688
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 1: for the health of the business long term. But in

689
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 1: terms of the ad spend and the dollars, it's all

690
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:39,959
Speaker 1: under the same umbrella. Any interest in doing a full

691
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,840
Speaker 1: mock draft doesn't have to be full in depth or

692
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: even a whole round. One could just be the top

693
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: ten either. I could do a top ten one. As

694
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: we get closer, I could definitely do a top ten one.

695
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: But it was like some of these like random offensive

696
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: linemen and safeties, like you just the unknown in doing

697
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: a mock draft right now, to me, it feels a

698
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: little crazy, like we got a lot of moving parts.

699
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 1: It's like that's who they're gonna take it pick twenty four,

700
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 1: and then the Packers select Jordan Love. I mean that

701
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 1: happens all the time. Players are taken that no one

702
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: saw coming, and that's what makes it draft so fun.

703
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: Like I've never I used to love mock drafts when

704
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: I was a kid. Since I've been doing this, I'm

705
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: not the biggest mock draft guy, cause I think it's

706
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: I understand why people click on it and it works,

707
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: but I just think it's like you could do an

708
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: educated guess in the top ten once you get to

709
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 1: like pick fifteen, Like you got no fucking clue. Was

710
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,840
Speaker 1: listening to pod and you talked about Jack not sleeping.

711
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: It may sound crazy, but we started taking our boy

712
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 1: to the chiropractor and it worked. Wonders definitely worth a shot.

713
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 1: Our boys sleeps. It's nine to eleven hours with minimal

714
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: waking up in the night. I hear what you're saying.

715
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 1: You know, when they're at the age Jack is he

716
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: has to feed every three three and a half hours,

717
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 1: So even if he is sleeping and he kind of

718
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 1: gets up like clockwork, Like if he eats at eleven,

719
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 1: he will get up twelve one too. You know, two

720
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: thirty three o'clock, I'm ready to eat, to have a

721
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,720
Speaker 1: bottle or the boob, you know, from the milk lady.

722
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:33,760
Speaker 1: So hey, milk lady, I need another round. Hey, milk lady,

723
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: another round. So that's part of it. Is the sleeping

724
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: element is he just naturally gets up and there's sometimes

725
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night when he's excited or whatever,

726
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 1: you know, the milk or maybe goes to bathroom. It's

727
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 1: just hard to kind of calm him back down. So

728
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: it's just it's a challenge. And at the end of

729
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: the day, like a six seven week old, you can

730
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 1: attempt to get him on schedules and stuff, but they

731
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 1: kind of and they beat to their own drum a

732
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 1: little bit in terms of the feeding, and there's no

733
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 1: he couldn't even have eight straight hours if he wanted to,

734
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,279
Speaker 1: because he has to eat multiple times in that those

735
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 1: eight hours has to And one thing about Jack when

736
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 1: you're feeding him, he's got I would say minimum one

737
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:24,080
Speaker 1: one gigantic diarrhea potentially too. I mean, no human being.

738
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:26,799
Speaker 1: I'm sure many of you would agree with this. It

739
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 1: feels like no one can go through more diapers than

740
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,360
Speaker 1: this kid. I mean, he goes through I feel like

741
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 1: thousands of diapers, and it's not like just a little pee.

742
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:41,879
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just constant, just explosions. I'm a Birds fan,

743
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: but Andy Reid still has a soft spot in my heart,

744
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,879
Speaker 1: head coach from when I was a child. All these

745
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: mock drafts have read in the Chiefs taken love at

746
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: Notre Dame at nine. You've said at previous pods, in

747
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:56,399
Speaker 1: what world do the Chiefs not take a star edge

748
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: like Bane or one of the offensive linemen Andy Reid's

749
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: been taking. I ain't been high forever. When you look

750
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 1: at what round was, Shady McCoy was second round, Brian

751
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:19,320
Speaker 1: Westbrook out of Villanova was the third round. Jamal Charles,

752
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 1: who he inherited, who was freaking awesome. If you don't

753
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: remember Jamal Charles with Andy Reid, you might want to.

754
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:33,879
Speaker 1: Just like thirteen fourteen fifteen, Jamal Charles was sick, he

755
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: was a third round pick. So I think a lot

756
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: of the running backs that Andy has been around, the

757
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 1: value for that player has not been super high, even

758
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. Machako is a seventh round pick. Okay,

759
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 1: last question here. We'll get out of here on a

760
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 1: serious note, and I'll go back to dealing with my

761
00:43:55,200 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: crazy son. Got more of a phyllis of coal question

762
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 1: for you. I'm starting a new job and have some

763
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 1: serious imposter syndrome going. It's a big change from my

764
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: current role in quite the pay bump as well as

765
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: more responsibilities. The role had over one hundred applicants and

766
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 1: I was selected. Congratulations. Have you ever had imposter syndrome

767
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,799
Speaker 1: as part of your rise? Do people act like I'm

768
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 1: at the top of the mountain. I mean, I'm just

769
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 1: a podcaster here. Uh, you currently have? And how did

770
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 1: you deal with it? I have been overwhelmed before, and

771
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 1: I have been nervous. I heard actually a recent line

772
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:45,239
Speaker 1: that I thought would just anyone can relate to is

773
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 1: Scott van Pelt. I think I was listening to his

774
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 1: podcast and he said, someone wants asked Tiger Woods is

775
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: why can't you ever hit the first fairway at the Masters?

776
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: Because I think Tiger notoriously was like always in the

777
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: right bunker, He's always yanking and left. He never hit

778
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,239
Speaker 1: the first fairway at the Masters, which obviously he's won

779
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: the Masters a munch times, and he looked at whoever

780
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,959
Speaker 1: asked him the question he said, because I'm nervous as shit.

781
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 1: So the point is that Tiger Woods gets nervous, Tom Brady,

782
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 1: Josh Allen throws up before every game. It's human nature,

783
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 1: and I can relate more to I don't think I've

784
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 1: ever had imposter syndrome, like I shouldn't be here. I've

785
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 1: always felt in the room i'm in, I belong now.

786
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,240
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean I don't get nervous before that moment

787
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 1: or while I'm in there dealing with whoever. Your nerves

788
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: are high, but that's human nature. Like you clearly did

789
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: something to earn the opportunity they offered one hundred people.

790
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 1: You get big pay raise, like they believe in what

791
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:58,040
Speaker 1: you did previously to earn this spot. And you can

792
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 1: make the argument is like, is anyone truly ready for

793
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 1: their role? Probably not? Yeah, I bet if we Mike

794
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 1: McDonald walked in here right now, Like, were you ready

795
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 1: that first couple of months of being a head coach?

796
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: He said, no chance, a couple of years. Lady who

797
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,840
Speaker 1: wins Souer Bowl, No one expects you to be whatever

798
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 1: your role is, Warren Buffett, day one. So I think

799
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 1: the easiest way I know for me is I'm a

800
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,439
Speaker 1: big like to do guy. I try to write out

801
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 1: my tasks like I'm very visual that way. I need

802
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: to like check things off. That's how I operate from

803
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 1: a professional standpoint, Like I got these seven things to do,

804
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:37,520
Speaker 1: you know. I do to do lists wherever in my

805
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: phone all the time, and I just bang them out

806
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 1: like if I have to do something, you know, in

807
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: the morning. So whatever your process is to help alleviate

808
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 1: some of the stress, but I can't, Like I've never

809
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 1: felt like I shouldn't be here. Now if you like

810
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: threw me on the an NFL football field and said, hey,

811
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: play linebacker, Like yeah, I have imposters syndrome. What is

812
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 1: going on? But you're in a situation that clearly you

813
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: were chosen for for a reason. Now are you gonna

814
00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 1: be able to handle it or not? Who knows? But

815
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 1: you get better with experience. Take it day by day.

816
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: I mean all the cliche bullshit, but it's true, Like

817
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: you can't think about like what's it gonna be like

818
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 1: in a couple of years. It's like, hey, how am

819
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,520
Speaker 1: I going to handle this week? What am I gonna

820
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 1: do the next couple of days to make this go?

821
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, right, the money thing,

822
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,879
Speaker 1: it feels good at first whenever you get a quote

823
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 1: unquote big pay raise, you start making more money, but like,

824
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 1: it's not unless I'm, by no means some guy that

825
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 1: like I'm still very worried about finances. It does not

826
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:52,759
Speaker 1: change your life, honestly, and if it does, then I

827
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,800
Speaker 1: can't really relate to you. Now. It definitely helps whatever

828
00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:00,280
Speaker 1: you're doing for kids, schools, for buying homes whatever. I'm

829
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 1: not acting like money isn't important. And even if you're

830
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:07,520
Speaker 1: like I value you know, ambitious people and driven people

831
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 1: and people that want to make more money. But then

832
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 1: once you start, you just like go on with your day,

833
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:17,279
Speaker 1: you know. So I would say, just keep your head

834
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 1: down and start grinding and try to do a good job.

835
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 1: And you're gonna be nervous that that's pretty normal and

836
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 1: just I don't know, it'll come with the territory. That's

837
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 1: a good thing. So good luck to you. The volume
