It's like 29 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 4: extremely humbling, and it's finding that not just here in 30 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 4: the United States we're listening, but the message is being spread. 31 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 3: So that's dope. 32 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 2: That's dope. It's definitely dope for sure. So all right, 33 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 2: we're gonna jump right into it with the number one 34 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 2: sports topic of the Weekion Williamson and the Blue Devils. 35 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 2: So for anybody that is not in tune of what's 36 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 2: going on, Duke North Carolina big rivalry, probably one of 37 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 2: the biggest rivalry in sports, not just not just college 38 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 2: basketball sports period, right, So they had a game and 39 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: that's like their rival. So they had a game and 40 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 2: Zion being the star that he is right now and 41 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: he is the phenom of college basketball. So the tickets 42 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 2: were selling for I think ten up to ten thousand 43 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 2: dollars on some sites, and five thousand and two thousands, 44 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: so they were actually comparable to resale prices for Super 45 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 2: Bowl tickets. 46 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 4: According to vivid Seats, the prices, some of the price 47 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 4: was actually higher than the lowest super Bowl ticket. 48 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy. So the game comes and everybody's there, 49 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 2: Spike Lee's there, David Robinson is there, President Obama's there. 50 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 2: It's crazy, right, and then, in a freak accident the 51 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 2: first play of the game, in the first thirty seconds, 52 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 2: Zion literally blows his sneaker apart. I've never seen that 53 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,119 Speaker 2: in the game before. It blows a sneaker apart, and 54 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: it's done. He's hurt, he's malone spring, So you know, 55 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: we want to wish him, you know, speedy recovery. That 56 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 2: was just a very weird and very unfortunate situation. But 57 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: the whole conversation brought into a lot of different things 58 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 2: that need to be talked about and need to be addressed. 59 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: And really the number one thing is the revenue that 60 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: college sports, in particular big time college basketball and big 61 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 2: time college football brings in, and we need to look 62 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: at that. 63 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, one of the things that immediately came 64 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 4: to our attention was like, is it worth him playing again? 65 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 3: Right? Because this guy is obviously going to be. 66 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 4: The number one pick in the NBA Draft in the summer, 67 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 4: and he's set to make millions of dollars from his 68 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 4: NBA contract as well as any shoe deal or shoe 69 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 4: company that signs him. And people are arguing, hey, this 70 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 4: kid is a student. He should not be paid for 71 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 4: his service. 72 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's how people are saying that, do you 73 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: know you're getting paid in a scholarship and all that, 74 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 2: But I don't think people fully understand how complex the 75 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 2: situation is. So that's what we do here. We try 76 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 2: to make very complex situations easy to understand for everybody. 77 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: So that's what we're going to do hopefully with this. Right, 78 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 2: So we're look at March Madness, right, So March Madness. 79 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 2: It's a fitting time since we're at the end of 80 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 2: February and March Madness will be coming up in a 81 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: few weeks. So March Madness is a three week basketball 82 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 2: tournament for Division one basketball that determines the national champion. Right. 83 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: Every year, you know, you fill out your brackets, you 84 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 2: you you know, watch the games, you have the the 85 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 2: buzzer beaters, you have the final four, it's the whole deal. Right. 86 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 2: So the NC double A, Right, the NC double A 87 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 2: is the governing body for college athletics. Right, So the 88 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 2: NC double A their main source of revenue is March Madness. 89 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 4: Right. And the March Madness, like you said, is almost 90 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 4: a month of basketball games. Sixty four teams make it 91 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 4: in obviously, just over thirty plus games every weekend. 92 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 3: The field gets trindled down, but the money that is gross. 93 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: Is no, no, no, it's crazy al right. So March 94 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 2: madd twenty seventeen, three weeks of March Madness, the NC 95 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: DOUBLEA made one billion dollars, right. 96 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, for the first time, record breaking, record. 97 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: Breaking them out. That's how much revenue they made. The 98 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 2: American Gambling Gaming Association says the number of brackets with 99 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: his seventy million, I mean seventy million people will play brackets, 100 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 2: office pools, gambling, friends, bars, whatever, right. Nine point two 101 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 2: billion dollars is gambled on the tournament. Right, So the 102 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: NC DOUBLEA makes one billion, nine billion is actually gambled 103 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 2: on it. So that represents ninety percent. That one billion 104 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 2: dollars represents ninety percent of the NC doublea's annual revenue. 105 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 3: Did More and Buffett have a billion dollar contest. Yeah, 106 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 3: per perfect brack of perfect bracket of billion dollars for 107 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 3: the PERFCT back. 108 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 2: So in twenty ten, the NC double A signs a 109 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: fourteen year deal with CBS and Turner for ten billion 110 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 2: dollars for March Madness. Right, so to cover the tournament, 111 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 2: they have a TV deal for ten billion dollars. Then 112 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 2: in twenty sixteen they have an extension for twenty thirty 113 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 2: two for eight more billion. 114 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 115 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 4: So the first contract is supposed to run from twenty 116 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 4: ten to twenty twenty four. They see how lucrative it is. 117 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 4: By twenty sixteen, they're like, all right, let's reup. 118 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 3: We're going to. 119 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 4: Reup now so that we cant the rights to it. 120 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 4: So CBS has a few channels and networks. Obviously TNT 121 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 4: is Turn of Sports, and they have TBS and I 122 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 4: think True TV. Those are the four networks that cover 123 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 4: so you don't miss a game anymore. We used to 124 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 4: it only was like channel. It was only CBS when 125 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 4: we used to watch it, and then they were like, no, 126 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 4: we got to cover all these games, so now you 127 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 4: can't miss a game. 128 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: So all right, So how the money is broken down 129 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 2: is interesting and it's very complex, so I'll try to 130 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: make it as easy to understand as possible. Ninety six 131 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: percent of that billion dollars goes to members membership different colleges, right, 132 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 2: And they break it down so each conference gets a piece, 133 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 2: so they have two hundred and twenty million dollar pot 134 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: from the NCAA tournament. Then they split it up amongst conferences. 135 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 2: So each game that a team wins, their conference gets paid, right, 136 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: and then the further they go in the tournament, the 137 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 2: more money the conference gets paid. 138 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 4: So example of a conference would be like the ACC 139 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 4: or the Biggies Big twelve SEC. 140 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 3: Those our conferences PAC twelve right exactly. 141 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 2: So then from there it's up to the conference to 142 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 2: break it down to the individual teams. So it's a 143 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 2: hierarchy system. The nc DOUBLEA gets it, then they give 144 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: it to the conferences, and then the conferences gives it 145 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: to the teams, right, So it's like a three tier system. 146 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: So but the problem is that when people say it's 147 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: not as easy as just paying, so you look at 148 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: it and you say, okay, this is making billion dollars. 149 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 2: They have a ten billion dollar deal. How come the 150 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 2: athletes aren't getting paid? Well, only one third of the 151 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 2: teams are actually profitable, exactly right, So two thirds of 152 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: the teams aren't actually profitable. So the one third of 153 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: the teams that are profitable, they are paying for the 154 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 2: two thirds of the teams that are not profitable. That's 155 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: just basketball, but the NC Double A has a bunch 156 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 2: of different sports. In almost every single sport except for basketball, 157 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: is not profitable. So now you have pretty much a 158 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 2: handful of teams right in the grand scheme of things 159 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 2: that are funded every program. 160 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 4: Right, So it's like the kid who plays golf or 161 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 4: or the kid who plays lacrosse, baseball, field hockey. 162 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 2: And then there's a thing called Title nine. 163 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 3: Right. 164 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: So Title nine came in years ago, and that made 165 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 2: it where you have to have an equal amount of 166 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 2: women teams as men teams. 167 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 3: Whatever sports you're offering, you have to offer. 168 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 2: So now that cut the budget even more, and now 169 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 2: the big revenue sport is paying for not just every 170 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 2: male but female sports as well. So it's a very 171 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 2: diluted system that they're using the top tier money earners 172 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,239 Speaker 2: to pay for everybody. 173 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 3: Right. 174 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 2: So then it gets even more complex because that's the 175 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: NC Double A is basketball where the real money is 176 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 2: made is football. So the NC double A one football 177 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: department is different from the NC Double A. So now 178 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 2: we have to go into football. 179 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 3: Yes, football is a huge generator of money because number one, 180 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 3: it's simple math. Right, if you have eighty to one 181 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: hundred thousand people. 182 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 4: Coming to watch one sporting event and paying one hundred 183 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 4: dollars per ticket, you're gonna gross way more than an 184 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 4: arena that holds twenty thousand for basketball. 185 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 3: Right. 186 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 4: The only thing is like, yeah, basketball has more games. 187 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 4: But if a team has eight home games and they 188 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 4: sell out, which they do, like these big schools sell 189 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 4: out every game and they're getting one hundred and ten 190 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 4: thousand people to come in, it feels in comparison. 191 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 2: No, it's different. So, okay, we had a we looked 192 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 2: at Forbes list for twenty eighteen and the top five 193 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: football teams their revenue. Right, so the top football team was, well, 194 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 2: we'll start with number five. Number five was Ohio State. 195 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 2: They had a revenue of one hundred and twenty million 196 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: and they had profit of sixty nine million. Then we 197 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 2: go to Alabama one hundred and twenty seven million revenue 198 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 2: in fifty nine million profit. Michigan is number three, one 199 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty seven million, seventy five million profit. Texas 200 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: Longhorns number two one hundred and thirty three million with 201 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 2: eighty seven million dollars of profit and the number one 202 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 2: team football team last year with Texas A and M 203 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 2: with the revenue of one hundred and forty eight million 204 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: with one hundred and seven million dollar profit. This is 205 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 2: just football, yeah, And that's nothing doing any other sports football, 206 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. 207 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 4: Like, that's just generating money for the school as well, 208 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 4: like you said, and the one thing we know about 209 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 4: Texas is football is king. Right, there's the reason why 210 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 4: the Cowboys are the most profitable team in the NFL. 211 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 4: So not only are they generating money, but we took 212 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 4: a look at where the money is going. So when 213 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 4: they argue, hey, athletes shouldn't be paid because they're going 214 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 4: to school for free, well here's the breakdown. So those 215 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 4: numbers that you just ran off, right, so we can 216 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 4: talk about how much is going to scholarship. So from 217 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 4: that money that was very generated from Ohio State, about 218 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 4: twenty million that goes. 219 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 3: To school to the school scholarships for all the sports. 220 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: So they made one hundred and twenty million, right, twenty 221 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 2: twenty million went to scholarship exactly. That means that we're done. 222 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 2: Where the all the one hundred go, We're. 223 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 3: Gonna get them. So number four, you say Alabama, they 224 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: spend seventeen million in scholarships. Okay. 225 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 4: Then number three Michigan we have twenty five million in scholarships. 226 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 4: Number two Texas they have thirteen million of scholarships. And 227 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 4: then number one Texas A and M ten million of scholarships. 228 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 4: And the reason Texas A and M is number one 229 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 4: this year is because a lot of people don't know. 230 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 4: It's like they have a large amount of boosters that 231 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 4: donate money to the program. So that money just gets 232 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 4: put into a pile of revenue because we're giving it 233 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 4: to the university to help improve conditions. Number one thing 234 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 4: they want is they want their football team to win. 235 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: That's it, like that eblily, that comes down to, we 236 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 4: want our football team to win. We'll pay money, will 237 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 4: hire national championship coaches from other schools just so that 238 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 4: we can win. 239 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: The Texas Longhorns has their own network. 240 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 3: So that's crazy. Like that is in itself. 241 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 2: They are like not to cut you off. But the 242 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 2: conversation of this is a conversation that literally can take 243 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: an hour, right because, like I said, there's so many 244 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 2: different levels involved with how much money is being generated. 245 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: You have Bowl games, you have TV contracts, you have 246 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 2: the Big Twelve that they have the Big twelve network. 247 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 2: Texas is in the Big twelve conference. Yes, yes, they're 248 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 2: in the Big twelve. Big twelve has its own network, 249 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 2: but the Texas long on have their own network. 250 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 3: They have their own completely separate of the Big Twelve. 251 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 3: And we get that here in New York. Like before 252 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: the Big East, before acc SEC had their own channels. Texas, 253 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 3: the school, the University of Texas had its own channel, 254 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 3: and they still have their own channel. It shows you 255 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 3: nothing but Texas and exclusive access. Really, what they want 256 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: to see is football. 257 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 2: No, it's different, it's different. And then can we just 258 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: go because we don't want to stay on this topic 259 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 2: for too long, but it's such it's so crazy, right, 260 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 2: So we have to talk about the coaches how much 261 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 2: money they made? 262 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 3: Right? So the coaches are the guys who bring the 263 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 3: recruits to the school and they make money. They make 264 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 3: money from their own contracts and they get endorsed. 265 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 2: So the top four, how much did the top football 266 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 2: coach made. 267 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 3: Nick Saban, So, I mean he's one of the greatest 268 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: coaches all time. 269 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: Eight point three million University of Alabama.

How much did the top basketball 271 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 2: coach make? 272 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 3: So, coach k made eight points so nine million dollars 273 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: last year in salary. 274 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 2: That's the Duke coach. Ironically enough, we're talking about Zion 275 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 2: in private school too. So Duke, yes, private school and 276 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 2: the coach makes nine million dollars a year. All right, 277 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: we won't even go through the list of coaches because 278 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 2: there's that's crazy. Then we got endorsement deals. That's another 279 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 2: avenue that they make money.

That's they 324 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 2: made Madden. 325 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 4: They made well NBA a lot used to be thing, 326 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 4: not so much anymore, but Madden is their top game 327 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 4: right now. 328 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 2: So they had so EA Sports used to have video 329 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: games for college football on college basketball yep, Division one 330 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 2: college football and Division one college basketball, and they had 331 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 2: every Division one school and they had the player's likeness. 332 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 2: They they had their name, but they had their likeness. 333 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 2: They couldn't say your name, but they put your number 334 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 2: and like your attribute. So if you were a good shooter, 335 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 2: then your rating was like an eighty or above. Right, 336 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 2: So when was that like two thousand and When was 337 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 2: I in college, I think two thousand and six something 338 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 2: like that. I don't know around that time, mid two thousands. 339 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 2: So yes, when I was in college, University of Maryland, 340 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 2: Baltimore County D one school number fifteen, I was number fifteen, 341 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 2: I was using you in the game, and yeah, he 342 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 2: was playing with me. It was like it was crazy 343 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 2: because we used to so we were just happy, you know, 344 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 2: being in college. I never was a really good well, 345 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 2: I never really was a really good video game player. 346 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 2: I wasn't in the video games, but my friends was, 347 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 2: my teammates were, so we would go and we played 348 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,959 Speaker 2: video games. But it was just cool to see somebody 349 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 2: that it was made in your likeness, Like it looked 350 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 2: like me right like, so I'm like, that's kind of crazy, 351 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 2: like to have somebody in my likeness on a video game. 352 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 2: We wasn't thinking that they was using us and we 353 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 2: wasn't getting paid. So what somebody did right at Obannon, 354 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 2: that's a different story. Shout shout out at Obannon. 355 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,199 Speaker 3: So they have people who only know at Obannon for this. 356 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 3: But this guy was like the national player. 357 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,719 Speaker 2: If you don't know who Ed O'Bannon is do your research. 358 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 4: Nineteen ninety five UCLA National Champ, Player of the years, legend, 359 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 4: legend that. 360 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 2: But then he changes so he changed the game completely 361 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 2: because he realizes that EA Sports. So we talked about 362 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 2: all these other revenue sources, right, video games, billion dollar industry. 363 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 2: EA Sports making million dollars a year, and the colleges 364 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 2: are getting paid off of that as well because they 365 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 2: have to license their name to use them in the 366 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: video games. So the colleges are getting paid millions in 367 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 2: EA Sports are getting paid millions from video games, but 368 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 2: the kids wasn't getting any money. So they have a 369 00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: class action lawsuit and they won. So what happen is 370 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 2: that anybody that played Division I sports football or basketball, 371 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 2: I think like from a ten year period that was 372 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 2: featured in that video game was part of that class 373 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 2: action lawsuit. And lo and behold, I was part of 374 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 2: that class action lawsuit. So they cut me a check. 375 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 2: They cut me a check. So around like probably like 376 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 2: three years ago, four years ago, I get a check 377 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: for like eighteen hundred dollars. 378 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 3: Look at that, it wasn't. 379 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 2: Bad, but it just goes to show you that there's 380 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 2: so many different ways how colleges are making money a lot. 381 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 2: So I know there's an argument that students are getting 382 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 2: scholarships and that's payment, and it look, it is valuable 383 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 2: because I was I was on a scholarship. I didn't 384 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 2: have to pay for college. I appreciated my college experience. 385 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 2: But but we can't act like a nonprofit organization that 386 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 2: makes billion dollars a year in schools that are making 387 00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 2: billions and millions of dollars off of two sports. We 388 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 2: have to find a way to fairly compensate the players, 389 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 2: or if we're not going to compensate them, then we 390 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 2: at least have to let them go into professional sports 391 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 2: out of high school if they choose to, and not 392 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 2: make them go to college. Like you can't make somebody 393 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 2: go to college and then not pay them. 394 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,959 Speaker 4: It's the only thing amateur about this is that they 395 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 4: don't get paid. They saying, oh, it's an amateur it's really 396 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 4: a fum system. It's like the minor leagues because in 397 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 4: football you can't it's a free trial. Yeah, you can't 398 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 4: go unless you do three years. In NBA and they're 399 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 4: trying to change that now you have to go for 400 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 4: at least one year. 401 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 2: It's a free trial. 402 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 3: But in other sports. That doesn't hold true. 403 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 2: It doesn't hold true. 404 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, So like if I wanted to play golf, I 405 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 4: can do that as a teenager, hockey, teenager, baseball, teenager 406 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 4: soccer from Freddie you do. 407 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 2: I went to school with Freddie you do. Highly suspicious. 408 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 2: You know he wasn't fourteen. I don't know. That's a 409 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 2: different conversation. Highly suspicious. That football and basketball are the 410 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 2: only sports that require you to go to college. Extremely suspicions. 411 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 2: And look at the population of the people who play 412 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 2: those sports. Extremely suspicious. All right, Okay, well, hopefully we 413 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 2: can change it in their future. 414 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 4: Absolutely all right. So we're gonna move into the into 415 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 4: the next topic. We'll start with the line Mek Mills 416 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 4: said in so on Trauma they told Caps stand up 417 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 4: if you want to play for a team, and all 418 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 4: these teammates they say things they woke. So one of 419 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 4: the things that happened is in the past week was 420 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 4: that the NFL reached a settlement with Kelan Kaepernick in 421 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 4: his case of collusion against him. So it's pretty interesting 422 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 4: because people are taking different sides on it. A lot 423 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 4: of people are saying, hey, Cap sold out because he settled, 424 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 4: and other people are looking at it like, yo, he won, 425 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 4: because the settlement in a sense means that there's some. 426 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 3: Form of guilt that the NFL had. 427 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 4: Now we'll never know because of the terms of the 428 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 4: conditions of the settlement. So it's a different type of 429 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 4: take on it. But we're gonna go into a different approach. 430 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 2: It's different. Yeah. But even before we even go into that, 431 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 2: it's you know, nobody knows how much money got paid. 432 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 2: It's rumored that he got a hundred million. 433 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're saying between sixty eighty million. 434 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, even I heard one hundred. But let's say he 435 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 2: was a hundred hypothetically speaking, right, So, I mean that 436 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 2: is a lot of money. One hundred million dollars a 437 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 2: lot of money. But in the grand scheme of things, 438 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 2: if you think about it as thirty two NFL teams, right, 439 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 2: so they divide that equally amongst each other. That's three 440 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 2: point two million per team, per. 441 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 3: Owner, which is not anything to them. 442 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 2: A dropping a bucket, A dropping a bucket, Right, So, 443 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 2: I mean the league made fourteen billion dollars last year. 444 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,159 Speaker 3: And he lost his salary, right he was getting I 445 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: think the he was on paces made twenty million dollars 446 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 3: he had two more years. I granted he did opt 447 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 3: out of his contract, but he opt out with the 448 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 3: intent that he was going to sign another deal. 449 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: So all right, so Colin Kaepernick, before we even go 450 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 2: into the plot twist on it, ratings are down, yeah, right, 451 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 2: so that. 452 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 4: So from so Cap starts his protest for social injustice, 453 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 4: specifically police brutality in twenty sixteen, and he's out twenty seventeen. 454 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 4: So the ratings go down for two years in a row. Now, 455 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 4: last year the ratings did go up five percent for 456 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 4: the NFL, but a lot of that could be contributed 457 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 4: to the surprise of these teams and great players like 458 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 4: so example Kansas City, Right, nobody expected Mahomes to have 459 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 4: that type of season. So people watch, and you know 460 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 4: the Tom Brady story, right, can't he do it again? 461 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 4: So people watch, and they just happened to have great 462 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 4: games on at prime time time on Sundays and Monday nights. 463 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 4: So that helped with the ratings. But for two years 464 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 4: it was going down. Now they're also this episode is 465 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 4: brought to you by P and C Bank. A lot 466 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 4: of people think podcasts about work are born, and sure 467 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 4: they definitely can be, but understanding a professional's routine shows 468 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 4: us how they achieve their success, little by little, day 469 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 4: after day. It's like banking with P and C Bank. 470 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 4: It might seem boring to save, plan and make calculated 471 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 4: decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is 472 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 4: what helps you live or more happily fulfilled life.

Yeah, So fi year 519 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 2: was ninety eight million, Yeah, which was a low, eleven 520 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 2: year low in two thousand and eight. 521 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 3: So so some people attributing to that to the Kaepernick effect. 522 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 2: Yes, we don't know, but probably it had something. 523 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 524 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 4: I mean people are on social media saying, look, we 525 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 4: stay with CAP, and I think we've taken that stance 526 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 4: that we stay with CAP. And it's nothing against anybody 527 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: who is in the armed forces, Like we love and 528 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 4: support our armed forces and understand that their job is honorable, 529 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 4: but we are we're looking at it from both sides. 530 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 2: So the armed forces, that's what this whole thing was 531 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 2: spun into, right, Yeah, he was he was just CAF 532 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 2: was protesting for police police brutality, and people were saying, 533 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 2: this is not patriot How do we get to this 534 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 2: point with no no, no legitimate question. How do we 535 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 2: get to this point with armed forces? 536 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 3: We're got So when we grew up watching NBA and NFL, 537 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 3: this we didn't think about this. This is not something 538 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 3: we thought about. 539 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 2: It's new. 540 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 3: It's a new thing. It's like, over the past ten years, 541 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 3: it's become a. 542 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 2: When we say the thing, people don't know the national 543 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 2: anthem played before a game and televised. Yeah, it's not 544 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 2: something that has always. 545 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 3: Happen, yeh. 546 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 4: So that started in two thousand and nine. Teams and 547 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 4: owners were saying, hey, we want to show signs of patriotism, right, 548 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 4: so how can we do that. Well, we'll come up 549 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 4: with a list of things we can do. We'll broadcast 550 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 4: a national anthem, we'll have flyovers, we'll have flags that 551 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 4: are field length, right, we'll have our players standing out 552 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 4: during the national anthem to show signs of patriots. And 553 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 4: they even start and people probably didn't realize this, but 554 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 4: they started to do surprise visits from troops who had 555 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 4: been overseas and they came home and surprised their families. 556 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 3: Little did people know that the Department of Defense was 557 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 3: paying for. 558 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 2: This, So plot twists. The Department of Defense paid the 559 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 2: NFL five point four million dollars between two thousand and 560 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 2: eleves in twenty fourteen. The National Guard paid six point 561 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 2: seven million between twenty and thirteen and twenty fifteen to 562 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 2: do these ceremonies, and it's in their budget as recruitment item. 563 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: So how did this all come about John McCain. 564 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 4: Ironically enough, so John and Senator Jeff Flake, both from 565 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 4: Jeff Flake. 566 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 2: But the reason why this is so ironic is that 567 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 2: John McCain rest in peace. He If you don't know 568 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 2: his story, obviously you probably heard of him, right. He 569 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 2: was a senator, he ran for president, he lost, but 570 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 2: he was also a pow for I think like seven 571 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 2: years in Vietnam and he broke his arms. They torched 572 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 2: him severe, right, So he came home and he became 573 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 2: endured by the public because he didn't he didn't he 574 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 2: didn't fold because they could have let him go because 575 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 2: John McCain's father, I think, was a politician, very powerful man, 576 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 2: and they actually offered him his freedom, but he said 577 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 2: he wouldn't go. Until all of his comrades were free. So, 578 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 2: long story short, John McCain is a war hero, right, 579 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 2: so he looks into this, him and Senator Jeff Flake, 580 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: who are both Republican senators, and they find paid patriotism. 581 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 2: So he is offended by this, right because he feels 582 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 2: that you can't pay for patriotism. You can't pay under 583 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 2: the gaze of this is just being done out of 584 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 2: the goodness of our hearts. 585 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 3: Where we are patriot that's why we're doing this. 586 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 2: You're paying NFL owners as a recruitment tool to recruit 587 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 2: to the armed services. 588 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 4: So a part of it is that they didn't only 589 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 4: play the NFL. They paid the NBA, they paid soccer 590 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 4: and Major League Baseball. But out of that budget, right, 591 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 4: So I think maybe six point nine they did in 592 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 4: twenty fifteen, six point one million of that six point 593 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 4: nine million went to the NFL, and they didn't even 594 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 4: go to all teams. It just went to the top 595 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 4: sixteen highest rated teams. So like the Giants, the Jets, 596 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 4: the Patriots, Washington. 597 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 2: It was so when they looked, so John McCain and 598 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 2: Jeff Flake look into it, right, and they find out 599 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 2: that there's one hundred and twenty two contracts between the 600 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 2: Pentagon and sports leagues that nobody knew about exactly. They 601 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 2: didn't make this public, They just found it. So when 602 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 2: they found out about it, they feel they need to 603 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 2: make it public. Right, so they have a whole investigation. 604 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 2: The pay patriotism thing comes up. John McCain vows to 605 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 2: change it. He doesn't because it doesn't change, but it's 606 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 2: still something that not a lot of people are fully 607 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 2: aware of. Ironically enough, the year that John McCain and 608 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 2: Jeff Flake made this investigation was twenty. 609 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 3: And sixteen, twenty fifteen, fifteen, next year. 610 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 2: And then the next year Colin Kaepernick starts to kneel 611 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen. 612 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, so players weren't even required to come out before 613 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 3: two thousand and nine. They stayed in the locker room 614 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 3: during the national anthem. 615 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 4: It wasn't televised, but once the NFL realized that, hey, 616 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 4: people want to see this, they started charging. 617 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 3: They started charging ad dollars. So like it always comes right, 618 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 3: So is it is it patriotism or is it capitalism? Right? Right? 619 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 2: So paid patriotism? 620 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 3: Right? 621 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 4: If I could have broadcasting dollars like people paying for 622 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 4: ads and commercials, am I going to show the national anthem. 623 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 3: No, but if the federal government pays me more than 624 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 3: the commercials do, then I'll show it. Right. 625 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 4: So then people were an uproar, Hey, this guy is 626 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 4: kneeling during during the national anthem. Yeah, but ten years 627 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 4: even three years prior, guys were in the locker room. 628 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 4: Who knew what they were doing? Who knows what they 629 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 4: were doing in the locker room? 630 00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: Well, the thing and this is why. So this is 631 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 2: the thing, the whole theme behind our show. Right, So 632 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 2: we look at sports, entertainment and business, but we look 633 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 2: at the backstory because it always comes back to the money. Always, 634 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 2: it always comes back to the money somehow. Right, So 635 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 2: all of this was done because the NFL was paid 636 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 2: to do this. 637 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 3: And that it was part of our fabric. 638 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 4: Now now every game we watch the flag and again 639 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 4: it's nothing against our forces or military we love and support. 640 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 2: But and I'm not and I want to make this 641 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 2: clear too, I'm not saying that you shouldn't stand up 642 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: for the national anthem or you should stand up for 643 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 2: the national anthem. Everybody's entitled to do what they want. 644 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 2: We live, we live in a free country. But the 645 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 2: thing about it is, don't act like something is done 646 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: out of the goodness of your heart when you're getting 647 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 2: paid to do it. Marshall Lynch. Marshall Lynch, he said, 648 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 2: he said he never stood and they just realized this 649 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 2: two years ago.

We're going to fashion. We're going 658 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 2: to high end fashion. Gucci, Montclair. But we'll start with Gucci. Okay, 659 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 2: if you haven't been under the rock for the last 660 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: week and a half, you know that Gucci is in 661 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 2: deep water right now because they made a hurtleneck that 662 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 2: it's like a black face thing. It turns up and 663 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 2: it has red lips. I'm sure you've probably seen it. 664 00:34:53,680 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about. Okay, Then Montclair as 665 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: a Samball jacket, Yeah, you know what. 666 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 4: My clare is so disturbing. Last year they went in 667 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 4: the news for having the black face patch on the 668 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,879 Speaker 4: sweatshirt last year. Okay, twenty eighteen. This year they said, 669 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 4: you know what will top it. We're gonna put black 670 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 4: faces all over a bubble jacket and put it out 671 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 4: for retail. 672 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 2: Okay. Then Birdberry decides is a good idea to have 673 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 2: a hoodie with a noisance on it. 674 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're calling it the Nautical the nautical hoodie. 675 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 2: Oh man. And then Proud of did something. 676 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 4: Pride had the monkey pendants in the window and they 677 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 4: were putting on their bag. 678 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 3: It had a big monkey displays having right. 679 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, al sharpedon came the whole big thing. 680 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,399 Speaker 3: Yeah. Prior to that, we had H and M. 681 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 2: H and M had the coolest monkey in the junk 682 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 2: with a black kid wearing. 683 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 3: It, and they thought that was a good idea. 684 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 2: Okay, So obviously this isn't a coincidence. Right, they're doing 685 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 2: this on purpose. So why are they doing it on purpose? 686 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 2: There's a lot of different theories. There's a thing called 687 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 2: outrage marketing. I don't know if anybody's familiar with outrage marketing, 688 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 2: but that's pretty much you can kind of guess what 689 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 2: it is by the name where you just shock value. Right, 690 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 2: any publicity is good publicity. You just do crazy stuff, 691 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 2: you get your name out there, you get some backlash, 692 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 2: you apology, apologize, but it doesn't really hurt your brand, 693 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 2: and it hasn't really hurt their brand. Yeah, I mean 694 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 2: these companies brands because. 695 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 3: H and M. 696 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, H and M and eight last year April they 697 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 4: put out the coolest monkey sweatshirt and they saw a decline, temporary, 698 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 4: temporary client for two months, but they're twenty eighteen. Retail 699 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 4: sales were up five percent, so people still supporting a 700 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 4: brand that they were temporary outraged and people wanted answers, 701 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 4: and then people realize, you know what, these clothes are affordable. 702 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 3: Son, buy it. 703 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 2: We live in a disposable society, right, And people lack discipline, 704 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 2: so it boycott for a week and then they just 705 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 2: forget about it because something else comes about. So is 706 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 2: that why these companies are doing this? Because as I said, 707 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 2: I don't think it's a coincidence. 708 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 3: How many times can we be slapping it and it's. 709 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 2: All high end fashion brands or H and M is 710 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 2: a high end fashion brand, but so Gucci and Prada 711 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 2: Prada and Montclair and Birdberry. So now they're saying that, Okay, 712 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 2: it's a boycott on Gucci, right, I'm not apposed to that. 713 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 2: But Gucci is actually owned by a larger corporation, right, 714 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 2: the curring group, I believe it's called UH and they 715 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 2: own YSL, Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen, Gucci other brands as well. 716 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 2: So are you boycotting all of these brands as well? 717 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 3: Why are we wearing these brands. 718 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 2: To begin with? To begin with? Why are we wearing 719 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 2: these brands? Right? We love Tia one of my favorite rappers. 720 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 3: You're gonna You're gonna hold that forever.

Okay, so we've seen 822 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 2: this play before, absolutely, and so it didn't staying alone 823 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:08,720 Speaker 2: with Jay Z. Were talked about jay a lot because 824 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 2: he's a cultural icon and very important person. So remember Iceberg, 825 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 2: Iceberg man. That was. That was late nineties, late nineties, 826 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 2: Iceberg man iconic. When I was in high school, if 827 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 2: you had an Iceberg sweater, you were elite, elite level. 828 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:34,279 Speaker 4: So Iceberg had the cartoon they had like Snoopy Snoopy? 829 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 2: Did they license that? They had to get that license, right, 830 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 2: Mickey Mouse Snoop. But those sweaters are like three hundred, 831 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars. It was Cougie and Iceberg. 832 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 3: Iceberg was crazy. 833 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 2: Iceberg was the shirts with two jay Z all he 834 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 2: was wearing was Iceberg. He had let me have the 835 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 2: lines that Iceberg e spress with IV on the elastic, 836 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 2: So everybody wanted Iceberg. Jay Z was talking about Iceberg 837 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 2: in every lyric. So you figure, Okay, we're spending so 838 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 2: much money, we're talking about it. 839 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:03,399 Speaker 3: Let's go talk to these guys. 840 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 2: Why don't we try to get endorsement deal, Let's have 841 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 2: a meeting with them. So him and Dame go to 842 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 2: Iceberg and they try to get an endorsement, and they 843 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 2: say no, thank you. When we don't make these clothes 844 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 2: not interested, not interested, but that note. 845 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 3: Turns into something extremely profitable. 846 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 2: Yes, so they say no, and they decide to do 847 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 2: their own thing and make a clothing brand called Rockaware 848 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:37,440 Speaker 2: based off of Rockefeller Records. Rockaware. Right, So now they 849 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 2: get the bright idea to start Rockawaar, which they probably 850 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,399 Speaker 2: should have done from the beginning, but better late than ever. 851 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 3: Rockaway eight mil. 852 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 2: Eighteen months, yes, eight years later from the exception date. 853 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 2: They sell Rockaway for two hundred and four million dollars. 854 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 2: You see what happens when you when you stop asking 855 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,240 Speaker 2: people for something and you do something for yourself. 856 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,280 Speaker 3: And that same time what happens to Iceberg. 857 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 2: Though, fell off the cliff of the earth, disappeared for 858 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:04,280 Speaker 2: they make it a research. 859 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're coming back now, but they disappear for fifteen 860 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:07,280 Speaker 3: to twenty years. 861 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 2: Why disappear because the raptors stopped talking about them. 862 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 3: We don't have we don't want you, thank you, We'll 863 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 3: move on. 864 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 2: So I don't understand why this is such a hard 865 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 2: concept to understand. That's a perfect case study. They blew 866 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 2: up Iceberg. They approached Iceberg for Iceberg says no, They 867 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 2: start their own company. Iceberg falls off the cliff of 868 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 2: the earth. Their company that they start, they sell for 869 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:31,280 Speaker 2: a quarter billion dollars. 870 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:32,240 Speaker 3: In eight years. 871 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 4: I mean they did that with the look or too, 872 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 4: so like they did Crystal and that turned into Armadale 873 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 4: and that turned into a space saying, so I mean, alright, cool, 874 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 4: you don't want us to drink your stuff, We'll make 875 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 4: a home. 876 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 2: When will we learn when? 877 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know. Can we just on 878 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 4: burbery burbery really quickly? So the new hoodie is like 879 00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 4: if you've seen a new hoodie, like there's no purpose, right. 880 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,399 Speaker 4: So the creative director at Birdbury is now with Carlo 881 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 4: Tucci and he's been like known for in the fashion 882 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 4: world for many years. He was the creative director at 883 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 4: Givanci and Jay said his. 884 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:14,760 Speaker 2: Name in the song too Ricardo. 885 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 3: So my thing is like, yes, is he from our culture? No? 886 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 3: But has he been around it enough? Absolutely right. He 887 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 3: collaborated with Kanye to do the Watch Thrown album cover. 888 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,879 Speaker 3: He did the What's the album? What's the label? 889 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,400 Speaker 4: He had music when they put out their Cruise Summer 890 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:36,879 Speaker 4: he did the cover with him. He's collaborated with Jay 891 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 4: and Beyonce for their tours. Same thing with Rihanna. So 892 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 4: he's been around the culture enough. There's no reasonable explanation 893 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 4: why you would be the creative director. You saw that 894 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 4: this design was coming down the line, and you pressed, okay, not. 895 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 2: The worst part. The worst part that they apologized, and 896 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 2: in the apology they apologize suicide, suicide. We're sensitive about 897 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 2: the suicide. 898 00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, we're not. 899 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, But and then they say racial insensitivity, it's not 900 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 2: something to be joked. Thousands of black people were lynched 901 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 2: in the South over one hundred years. It's not racial insensitivity, 902 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 2: it's lynching. They don't even apologize for that aspect yet. 903 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:20,439 Speaker 4: Well they I think that one of the models apologized 904 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 4: and they cut her quote a little bit, so she 905 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 4: did apologize. I mean, one of the models who was 906 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 4: in the show did not want it them to do this, right, 907 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,440 Speaker 4: She was like, listen, don't don't do this. This is ridiculous. 908 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:33,839 Speaker 4: You shouldn't walk down the runway with this. And they 909 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 4: went ahead and did it anyway, And then that was 910 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,319 Speaker 4: part of her apology. That's suicide is not something that 911 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,919 Speaker 4: we should joke with. And then the racial sensitivity, but again, 912 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,600 Speaker 4: like who okay that to go down your runway? 913 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,280 Speaker 2: You know what it doesn't even matter who cares. Stop 914 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 2: supporting it, yeah, or just take it. But I'm not 915 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 2: asking for an apology. Somebody don't know how to treat me. 916 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,720 Speaker 2: I'm asking for them to apologize to me. They've already 917 00:47:58,719 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 2: showed me who they are. 918 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 4: I believe them when they show you who you are. 919 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:04,920 Speaker 4: When somebody shows you who they are, you should believe them. 920 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:10,239 Speaker 2: Save your apology. I'm good, all right, Okay, guys, thank 921 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 2: you for rocking with us. That is the end.
