All right, 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: let's get to the story of the day Michigan was 8 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: levied fines and suspensions. And look, I don't know if 9 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: this comes to be. And the reason I say that 10 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: is I'm actually a coach for Wisconsin Green Bay, which 11 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: Division I program. We are under NCAA rules and regulations, 12 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,559 Speaker 1: just like anybody else. And what I have come to 13 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: learn first observing as a basketball analyst and a radio 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: show host and a TV yaker, And now I know 15 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: is the general thought in college athletics of the NCAA 16 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: and the NCAA is not some Darconian organization made it 17 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: out to be. 18 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 2: It's just the conglomerate of schools. 19 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: And you know, it's like being mad at Congress when 20 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: there's actually you know, every state has the right to 21 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: vote their rights. They vote their opinions for their constituents, 22 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: and you just say I don't like Congress. Well yeah, 23 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: well there's fifty states, so you don't like the individual representatives. 24 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: These are the individual schools. 25 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 2: But there is the Board of Infractions. Right. 26 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: The general thought from most people is no matter what 27 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: rules the NCAA comes up with, if you sue, they'll lose. 28 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: Now here's where the NCAA has gotten smart over the 29 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: past couple of years. The new rules and regulations in 30 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: terms of roster limitations and this opt in that our 31 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: program is a part of. In most college athletic programs 32 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: outside the Ivy League are a part of. All of 33 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: these rules supposedly are lawsuit proof. Right, there's a reason 34 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: that they're put in place. They feel like their lawsuit 35 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: proof and they'll stabilize things for the next couple of 36 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: years dream scenario, maybe even ten years of some form 37 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: of stabilization. So I say that because when I read 38 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: to you what Michigan's been punished, just understand that very 39 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: likely that Michigan appeals, ensues and tries to get out 40 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: of it. Right, Okay, So I don't need to go 41 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: through what they were doing with the science dealing. I 42 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: can only tell you that in my opinion without seeing 43 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: how much Jim Harbaugh knew. It's one of those Hey, 44 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: I don't care you're doing advanced scouting, give me the calls, 45 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: get them for me. 46 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 2: Give me the calls. And when you're running a program 47 00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 2: as big as. 48 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: Michigan, in my program, you know my email right now, 49 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: I have to it's I have to do every I'm 50 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: a CEO. I have to worry about every little different 51 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: department and oh yeah, by the way, much like Doge, 52 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: what can we cut, what can we keep? How little 53 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: can we spend to get the most out of it 54 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: because we have to compensate the student athlete now. But 55 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: I'm going to commend the NCAA. Look, do I think 56 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: this was a dog and pony show? 57 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 2: I do? Do I think this was that? This was? 58 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 2: Do I think there's another Connor Stallions out there? I'm 59 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 2: not sure. I don't know. 60 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: I do know that every college program, basketball or football, 61 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: tries to figure out what the signs are for the 62 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: other for the other team. And that's what you do. 63 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 2: What you do. 64 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: You're not allowed, unless you're playing in a tournament in basketball, 65 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: to scout in person, so you watch on video and 66 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: if they pull on their ear, if they tug on 67 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: their jersey, if they tap their head. You try and 68 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: figure out what exactly the set is, what exactly they're doing, 69 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: so you know what's coming. And if you can't pick 70 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: it up on video and eve, if you can, you 71 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: call somebody who's played them, because every coach has an 72 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: assistant or a manager that's sitting on their bench and 73 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: when you say, hey, that's earpool, it's earpool. 74 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 2: Write that down, Earpool, what is it? Hey? 75 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: Then you go in at halftime and you make sure 76 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: that you have it listed. So if they pull out 77 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: their ear in the second half, this is what they're doing. 78 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: And usually you know beforehand because you've talked to coaches 79 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: that have coached against them, because they keep a running 80 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: tab of what they're calling and how it coincides with 81 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: what they're doing on the floor. 82 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 2: Makes sense. 83 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: Okay, So my point is I'm not excusing the behavior 84 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: of Michigan. I'm just telling you that everybody, in some 85 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: form or fashion does. It feels like they overdid it 86 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 1: and they got caught and then they won. But once 87 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: they started winning, they probably they didn't have this brogram 88 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: in place, and they were in people's heads and oh yeah, 89 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,679 Speaker 1: By the way, if you didn't no signs stealing took place, 90 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: why do you have three different people putting the signs out? 91 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 1: Because two are fake signs? Right, you know they're looking, 92 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: so let's not act like you're surprised that there's somebody 93 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: in the stands or some video camera trying to get it. 94 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: That was Bill Belichick's entire argument. Right, we film the game, 95 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: they're running in signs at the game. Why can't we 96 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: just film the sideline and then what it coincides with 97 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: on the field. The big question for Belichick was were 98 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: they filming practice? That, of course is a no no. 99 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: And most coaches are incredibly paranoid if they say a 100 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: video camera running when they're in an empty gym or 101 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: an empty stadium, Okay, they'll freak out. They'll have somebody 102 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: go put a towel over it or whatever they do. 103 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: I mean, heck, if you played youth football and I 104 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 1: did you know this? Right before the game, you'll be 105 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: running through plays. What do you do with the players 106 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: who aren't involved? You line them up so the other 107 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: coach can't look down and see what you're doing. Right, 108 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 1: And every high school football coach, college football coach has 109 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: been paranoid for years at practice, at covering up what 110 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: you're doing. You know, high school coaches, especially making sure 111 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: there's empty stadiums when they're running through their game plan 112 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: for the next day. So let's not act like we're 113 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: surprised that this happens or that Michigan's the only one 114 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: doing it. They got caught doing it at a higher 115 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: level and then ultimately succeeding while doing it. 116 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: Here's the punishment. 117 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: Four years of probation, financial penalties, A fifty thousand dollars 118 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: fine plus ten percent of the budget of the football program, 119 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: an equivalent to the anticipated loss of all postseason competition 120 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: revenue sharing associated with the twenty twenty five twenty twenty 121 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: six football seasons, a fine equivalent to the cost of 122 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: ten percent of scholarships awarded to Michigan's football programs and 123 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 1: the twenty five to twenty six academic year, a twenty 124 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: five percent reduction official football visits in twenty five to 125 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: twenty six, a fourteen week probation recruiting communications in the 126 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: football program during the probation period, and then Connor Stallion's 127 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: eight year show cause. Harbaugh, you knew he had a 128 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: ten year show cause. Denard Robinson, wasn't he shoelaces, wasn't 129 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: his Nate Dame when he played our shoe strings when 130 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: he played there as quarterback? Three year show cause, restricted 131 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: from all athletically related activities. That's actually a big one. 132 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: That means he can't really coach in college football. Whereas 133 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: a show cause means you have to show cause for 134 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: hiring somebody. It doesn't mean you can't coach. You can't 135 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: get the job. You have to just go through an 136 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: infractions committee and say you're sorry and say you've improved. 137 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: It's much like the probation department, you know, when you're 138 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: trying to remember the start of Shawshank Redemption, where you 139 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: have to say that you're a changed man type deal. 140 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: And then Sharon Moore got a two year show cause, 141 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: but he's still the head coach, so that doesn't matter. 142 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: And he suspended a total of three games. Michigan imposed 143 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: a two game suspension for this year. The panel says 144 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: he's got to be suspended one additional game. 145 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: Do you want to know why? 146 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: It's an awesome punishment because it hits him in the wallet. 147 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: They're not taking down a banner that we know they earned. 148 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: And that you can't do you guys, remember men in Black, right, 149 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: remember the little silver thing that Will Smith or Tommy 150 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: Lee Jones would hold up and press it, and everybody's 151 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: a memory would be a race. Your short term memories 152 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: is zapped. Don't you wish that occurred in life? Would 153 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: that'd be so cool? 154 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 2: You're like in an argument with your girlfriend and your 155 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 2: wife and you're just like two, Like what were we 156 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 2: even argue about? I don't know, mabe, how you doing right? Reset? Well, 157 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 2: the that's called a neuralizer. Don't ask me how I know? 158 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: O gay. 159 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: Men in Black called it a neuralizer. There is no 160 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: neuralizer where we can hit the button. And Louisville's twenty 161 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: thirteen NCAA championship is a race from our memory banks, right. 162 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: We all saw it. We saw Trey Burke cleanly blocked, 163 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: pained and siva. It didn't get called as a clean block. 164 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: It changed the momentum of that game. And Rick Patino's 165 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: Louisville Cardinal, Hey, Luke Hancock and the boys end up 166 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: winning a national championship. That's a real thing. Banner, no banner. 167 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: Nobody's giving back their rings. Nobody's saying I'm not an 168 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: NCAA champion. That's just dumb. How do you really punish 169 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: a university? And the answer is you take their money? Right, 170 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: and who does this ultimately hurt? That's a lot of money. 171 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: Ten percent of the budget of the football program at 172 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: the University of Michigan. Okay, were calculating coaches salaries in 173 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: the budget? 174 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: Yep? 175 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: We calculate recruiting budget, yep. Are we calculating rev sharing 176 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: that budget? I don't know that it's going to be 177 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: a lot of money. 178 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:48,839 Speaker 2: Now. 179 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: I'm guessing Minisum Michigan will appeal and they'll probably sue 180 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 1: because it's a lot of money. And as much as 181 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: lawyer fees are a lot of money. I just ten 182 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,959 Speaker 1: percent of scholarships a ward of Michigan football program. Okay, 183 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: So what is an eighty thousand dollars scholarship a year? 184 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: Nine ten percent is eight grand? Eight grand times? 185 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 2: What do you have? One hundred and five? 186 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 3: Now? 187 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: And in college football you do the math, that's a 188 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: lot of money. That's just the eight hundred or so 189 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: grand plus you got to take what you were going 190 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: to get and you're like, well, what if they didn't 191 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: make the postseason? 192 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 4: Now? 193 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: What they're talking about is everyone, everyone in your league 194 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: gets a portion of the postseason revenue. You get I 195 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: believe two shares if you play, and then if you win, 196 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: you get additional shares of it. So that's a lot 197 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: of money. Now they didn't and I apparently can't take 198 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: the TV revenue. They can't take the in stadium revenue. 199 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: Right where you're making probably I don't know Michigan one 200 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people. I can only estimate between one hundred 201 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: and one hundred and fifty million dollars per year from 202 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: in stadium revenue, So they'll be fine, don't get me wrong, 203 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: but taking away the money is the only way to 204 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: truly truly punish college sports programs because it is all 205 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: about the money. Now, you want to know it hurts 206 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: the most. I would not want to be the coach 207 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: of Michigan softball, Michigan baseball, swimming, diving, right. I feel 208 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: terrible for Michigan hockey women's basketball because Dusty May, they 209 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: raised a bunch of money, they got a squad. I 210 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,719 Speaker 1: know they wanted to play us who don't want to 211 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: play us, And we're like, I don't really want to 212 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: get forty piece by Michigan. No, thanks, not into that. 213 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: They got a squad. I don't know what their budget is, 214 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: probably ten million dollars, right, maybe maybe more fifteen I 215 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 1: don't know. They have a top ten program. They're awesome, right, 216 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: and they already have the contracts for their roster of 217 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: football players, right. Those those contracts are done, they have 218 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: to pay those players, and I'm guessing it's somewhere in 219 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty five million dollar range overall with salaries. Right, 220 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: because Ohio State was they won the national championship. Everybody 221 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: said they were kind of top of the top of 222 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: the heap in the low twenties twenty million, So you 223 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: got to calculate one, every Michigan's going to try and 224 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: get to that level, and then two there's some sort 225 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: of inflation. 226 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 2: Can we say twenty five million? 227 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 5: Right? 228 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: Then you got a factor in the coaching staff you're 229 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: talking about. I don't know, somewhere in the fifty million 230 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: dollar variety. They have to be. You have to be 231 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: competitive in football, you have to be competitive in basketball 232 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: because that's where you make your money. 233 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 2: So what I love is that they hit him where 234 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:48,359 Speaker 2: it hurts. 235 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: Again, I'm not saying I agree or disagree with that. 236 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: I don't know all the facts in the case, and 237 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: I don't have the time to kind of delineate how 238 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: big a deal this actually is. I do think that 239 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 1: this is kind of classic NCAA and and it's like 240 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: anything else, like, you know, supposedly this is Ohio State 241 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: fans finding this out, turning them in. We saw what 242 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: likely Texas fans did to John Mattier this week. 243 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:13,559 Speaker 2: It's like you. 244 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: Allowing fans to matter is a mistake in litigating something 245 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: like this, in my opinion, allowing them to be whistleblowers 246 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 1: and oh my gosh, gotcha, cause what that does is 247 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: now Michigan fans are going to have their cell phones 248 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: on and trying find Ohio State guys. And you know 249 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: there's all this, you know, all this back and forth. 250 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 1: But whatever, Okay, they did a lengthy investigation. This is 251 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: what they found out. 252 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 2: And for years it. 253 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: Was scholarship productions, right and taking down banners. Well, you 254 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: can't take away scholarships now, because if you take away 255 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 1: a player's scholarship, you say hey, instead of I think 256 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: it's one hundred and five, I'm sorry, we don't have 257 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: a football program. I don't care about those numbers that 258 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: used to be eighty five. And what they've done is 259 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: they've done instead of scholarship limitations, it's roster limitations, it's 260 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: roster limitations. And again we were told that the reason 261 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: they did roster limitations, says scholarship limitations is their lawsuit 262 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: proof that this is what This is how sports can 263 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: survive lawsuits. Where you're not cutting scholarships, you're simply cutting 264 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: roster spots. 265 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: That's all you can have. You can do. 266 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: Every spot can be a scholarship, or half of them 267 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: can be scholarships, or none of them can be spot. 268 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: You can do whatever you want within your own domain. 269 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: If you opted in, and Michigan of course opted in. 270 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: I'm Doug gotlibin for Colin. This is the hurd Fox 271 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, iHeartRadio app. What you need to know is 272 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: what you need to know is Michigan got hit what 273 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: it hurts right, got hit where it hurts in the wallet, 274 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: in the wallet. And if you ask any Michigan coach 275 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: or administrator, okay, for years they felt like, despite the 276 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: fact were Michigan uh that the hardest part for them 277 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: was raising the money and getting up to the level 278 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: of Ohio State because Ohio State has never cared about 279 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: anything other than how can we put the best team 280 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: on the field. Michigan liked to have the academic repute. 281 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: Ohio State just want to win championships. Ohio State's run 282 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: fast and loose with rules for a lifetime, especially in 283 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: the football side. Okay, I'm guessing probably Michigan did too, 284 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: only they like Notre Dame, like to feel like they're 285 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: academically above it. They finally got to the level of 286 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: full investment from the university on the football program, and 287 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: now they're losing what ten percent of their budget and 288 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: all of their post what would have been post season revenue. 289 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: And my guess is what that hurts most is all 290 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: the Olympic sports, the ones that you don't hear about. 291 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: Olympic sports are picked, the one you don't soccer, hockey, 292 00:15:56,080 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: track and field, lacrosse, any of those ones. Their budgets chopped. 293 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: And what you do is then you move it over 294 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: cleverly to Michigan football. Well, you can't, we cut the budget. 295 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: There's always ways, always ways. What do I know, I 296 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: just worked for an Ncian institution. 297 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 3: This is the best of the Done Dot Leap Show 298 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 3: on Fox Sports radio. 299 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: Okay, Taylor strip was on with the Kelsey's On podcast, 300 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: so there's a lot to it. 301 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 2: Dan, I thought you. 302 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: Brought up a bunch of interesting points, but maybe the 303 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: most interesting was who does this serve? 304 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: Right? 305 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: Like, who does it serves? What is the point? Why 306 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: is she doing this? And what do you think that 307 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: the answer is? 308 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: I was. 309 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 6: I watched the almost entirety of the two minute the 310 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 6: two hour episode. I towards the end, I just kind 311 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 6: of fast forward a little bit, but it was on 312 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 6: for two hours last night, and even at the end 313 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 6: of that, Doug I wondered, all right, did Taylor do 314 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 6: this to bring her fans into the football world? Was 315 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 6: it to get football fans to appreciate Taylor Swift? Where? 316 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 6: What was the reason behind this? Ultimately, I think it 317 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 6: shook down to as we talked it out. I think 318 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 6: it was probably a safe space for Taylor to say 319 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,719 Speaker 6: what she wanted to say and to reveal her album 320 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 6: and to do it in a neat way with the 321 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 6: person that she loves. So ultimately, maybe it was just 322 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 6: to serve themselves, but record numbers watching it and millions 323 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 6: of people when it went live yesterday afternoon, or I 324 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 6: think evening in some parts of the country. But I 325 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 6: had wondered of what was the reason for it even 326 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 6: after watching the two hours, and ultimately I think it 327 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 6: was just good for Travis and Taylor. 328 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's what it was. I think it 329 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: was it gives America a look at serve America's couple, 330 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: right and Jaycedu it took him probably six to nine 331 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: months to go to come up off of the it's 332 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: a fake relationship argument. And to anybody who thought it was, 333 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: then you watch you watch yesterday, you can watch now 334 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: online and be like, not, okay, that works. You know 335 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: that there that's a real thing. I do think that 336 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: oftentimes we think there's a strategy involved. It's a lot 337 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: like here's the parallel I'm gonna drive. I have a 338 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: really good friend who work with the president in his 339 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: first term, and his thing was anybody who thinks that 340 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: when he comes out with some new plan, that there's 341 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: that they've they've workshopped it or whatever, that there's a 342 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: whole plan in place, Like, that's not how he operates. 343 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: It's just not, oh, it's this master plan with the economy, 344 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,479 Speaker 1: Like no, not really just has an idea. Somebody proposes 345 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: an idea, thinks it's a good idea, gets committed to it, 346 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: goes and does it, even if it may contradict an 347 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: idea he had a couple weeks ago. And I think 348 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: that's what's at play here with the Kelseys is she 349 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: probably always wanted to do it right, and everybody's always 350 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: why don't you ever do the podcast? Why don't you 351 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: ever do a podcast? Like we only see you guys 352 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: taking pictures in a club or a concert or a 353 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: football game like podcast, it's just a conversation. It's super 354 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: like you've talked people into being a podcast, like I 355 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: don't know, and then you get the dates arrive, Hey, 356 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: let's do it now for the season. Lets get out 357 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,719 Speaker 1: of the way and we'll just talk and we'll, you know, 358 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: talk music, talk some football, let people know who we. 359 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 2: Are, and that's it. Is there a benefit to the 360 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 2: Kelsey's Yes. Is there a benefit to her? Yes? 361 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: But I I and I could be wrong. And maybe 362 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: it's because I believe in the good and people first 363 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: and foremost that I don't think everybody has some master 364 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: plan on how to manipulate likes and how to manipulate 365 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: downloads and what it means for your music career. Like 366 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: she's a billionaire, she's the most popular female artist in 367 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: the country, period stop.

Like, they 369 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: don't need much more, they don't need even attention, but 370 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: it's just their way of Like people probably don't think 371 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: she likes her as into football. You watch that, you 372 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: listen to that, and you understand that she's doing what 373 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: every great partner should do, which is she's fallen in 374 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: love with what her partner does. 375 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 2: What it comes down to that I. 376 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 4: Became like a person who was running through the halls 377 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 4: of my house screaming, we drafted Xavier, You're worthy? 378 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 3: And my friends are like, what is who? 379 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 4: Body snatched you? 380 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: This is? 381 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 3: This? Is it? 382 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 4: What do you mean? 383 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 2: We drafted worthy? 384 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 6: You're worthy? 385 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 2: I forget where it was. You were the first person 386 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 2: to tell me that. 387 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 4: I couldn't believe it. I was freaking out. 388 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: We're talking about like, I'm like, wait, does she she write? 389 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 2: I had to look this up? I'm like, she does 390 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 2: she get the wrong information here? Yeah? 391 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 4: We trade it up? 392 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know I will. 393 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna just top in one thing. This is where 394 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: you're like a real person. I like when you when 395 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: you superstars are real people. She said, it's Xavier, but 396 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: she says Exavier, it's like a personal pet Beeve. But 397 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: forever reason it's charming because it makes her seem like 398 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: a real person that she has there are things about 399 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: her that aren't. 400 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 6: Perfect and that she's learning. Yeah, you know, like, so 401 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 6: it's a mistake, that's okay, not a big deal. And yes, 402 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 6: I thought that was. I thought it was. I thought 403 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 6: it was great as well. And it wasn't a pick 404 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 6: that was or a news item that was so obvious. 405 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 6: There was a little bit of of nuance in it, 406 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 6: or a little bit of inside that you'd have to 407 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 6: be a Chiefs fan to really get excited about. 408 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 4: We're talking about cover two, cover four, cover zero, man cover, 409 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,120 Speaker 4: We're talking we're learning, I continue to learn. 410 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 2: Somebody else that even knows what those coverages are. 411 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not ready to be an analyst right now, 412 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 4: but give me sixteen months. 413 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's he's been on his iPad and they've 414 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: been sitting there at home and he's watching and she 415 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 1: wants to know. I think it's awesome. 416 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 5: Something something tells me that he has been doing the 417 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 5: same thing, like I reached Taylor Swift and Kelsey fatigue 418 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 5: way early into this, and I've almost come around. I 419 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 5: was very interested to watch last night. I'm very I 420 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 5: was very impressed or startled surprised by how genuine they are. 421 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 5: They're like two giddy teenagers. I love Love. I like 422 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 5: watching Love. But I also think that he reciprocates that 423 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 5: because he's had us fooled this whole time into thinking 424 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,719 Speaker 5: that he loves her music. I thought he was just 425 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 5: saying it to be a good boyfriend. But I think 426 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 5: he also likes her music, which goes a long way 427 00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 5: with me because I don't like her music at all. 428 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 5: It does nothing for me. It's not for me. It's 429 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 5: for teenage girls. But he seems to just as she 430 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 5: has dived into the football. I think he's actually embracing 431 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 5: her music too, which is a surprise to me. 432 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: Stan Patrick Schelle here on Fox Sports Training, I heard ready, 433 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: w app go ahead, Dan. 434 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: I don't. 435 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 6: I do think her music is for everyone, not just 436 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 6: for teenage girls. It's just Jason may not like it. 437 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 6: I will say that I thought Travis Travis felt like 438 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 6: the third wheel at times because I think he's used 439 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,959 Speaker 6: to him, him and his brother going back and forth, 440 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 6: but understanding that this was Taylor's opportunity, that he was 441 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 6: gonna let her shine and would sprinkle in things. But 442 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 6: it wasn't a back and forth. It was a back 443 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 6: and forth between really Jason and Taylor. And I thought 444 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 6: Jason did a really good job. And I know that 445 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 6: there's some editing that's done, but it's not it's not 446 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 6: sneaky editing at all. You know where the cuts are, 447 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 6: you know where the place is where they've stopped and 448 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 6: started again. But Jason asked this question to her, which 449 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 6: I thought was great, and I give them credit. Jason 450 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 6: just asked, how did it work when you were trying 451 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 6: to get your masters back? Like can you tell me 452 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 6: the difference between what you know our publishing rights and 453 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 6: what aren't? And she laid it out for him, and 454 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 6: it was like a real music interview, and she explained 455 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 6: of like what she could do and what she couldn't do, 456 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 6: and why it was important for her to get those 457 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 6: master recordings, and why it may not be for every 458 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 6: single artist. And I actually thought that that part of it, 459 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 6: aside from them promoting and talking about their relationship, was 460 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 6: actually an informative part of the podcast. 461 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. 462 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: It's look, I think it's fascinating to understand, to have 463 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: people understand a business that they never understood before. 464 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 2: Right. 465 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 1: I've had that conversation with a buddy of mine about 466 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: masters and about selling them and about holding on to them, 467 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: and so when I heard that, I was intrigued. But 468 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: I did know a lot of it. Again, I just 469 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: thought I thought it was a win. But it wasn't 470 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 1: set out. They didn't set out to win, right, They 471 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: didn't set out to win. They just set out that 472 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: I want to do a podcast, Let's do it. That's 473 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: how it felt. It felt very natural. 474 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 6: There is something that I do think is I don't 475 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 6: contrive to such a negative connotation. But Travis is on 476 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 6: the cover of GQ. I mentioned this earlier, but Jason 477 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 6: at the start of the podcast, Jason Kelsey said, we 478 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 6: told you where we were going to be back August 479 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 6: twenty seventh. Instead we've got a surprise. We're going to 480 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 6: do this August thirteenth. Obviously that dropping helps Taylor, maybe 481 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 6: helps GQ helps Travis. But Travis, within this GQ article 482 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 6: talked about how his play over the last couple of 483 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 6: years slipped, and he says that he let his media 484 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:57,679 Speaker 6: responsibilities doing an FX show, hosting a game show on Amazon, 485 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 6: he let those things get in the way of his play. 486 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 3: Now. 487 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 6: Yesterday, Doug, after your show, I was in with Carrie 488 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 6: Rhodes on Cavito and Ridge, and Carrie was an all 489 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 6: pro and spent eight years in the league, says I 490 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 6: just think he's lost a step. I don't think he 491 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 6: has it anymore like he once did. And I think 492 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 6: this is all cover up and hearing what Carry said, 493 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 6: and I didn't necessarily disagree with Carrie. In the podcast 494 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 6: that aired last night with Taylor, Travis talked about traveling 495 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 6: the world and said that in Taylor brought up the 496 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 6: point that Travis had talked about going to different countries, 497 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 6: and Taylor's like, yeah, well, hello, I am going on 498 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 6: a tour. We can go to all of those countries. 499 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 6: And so that's what they did. In the summer of 500 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 6: twenty twenty four. Travis was with her in Europe during 501 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 6: those spots or going to different places. That wasn't mentioned 502 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 6: in the GQ article of the focusing on football, and 503 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 6: by the way, it would be okay, Travis Kelsey's accomplished 504 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 6: enough in his NFL career. He doesn't need to play 505 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 6: another down. He's going into the Hall of Fame. But 506 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 6: it was interesting to me to hear him say that 507 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 6: his TV stuff took him away, But the relationship stuff 508 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 6: with Taylor and being in Europe and doing these different 509 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 6: things were not a reason on why maybe his play 510 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 6: slipped last year, which you disagree with. I just don't 511 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 6: know how it helps, you know, Like I was when 512 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 6: he went to Argentina two years ago. Yes, during the 513 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:27,120 Speaker 6: bye week, I just thought that's crazy. The big joke 514 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 6: is the NFL is not like we'll just go to 515 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,479 Speaker 6: South America once a year. We'll go there too, So 516 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 6: maybe it looks a little bit normal, But I didn't 517 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 6: think that that was the great move for Travis and 518 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 6: preparing for the Chiefs. They ultimately go on and win 519 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 6: the Super Bowl, so it didn't have an effect. But again, 520 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 6: none of this has an effect, and it's okay if 521 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,919 Speaker 6: it did. He's at the end of his career, but 522 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 6: it's never brought up as maybe a reason on why 523 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 6: not the relationship, but just the stuff that comes with 524 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,959 Speaker 6: the relationship. You're in a different phase of your life, 525 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 6: a different part of your life. But he's pointed out 526 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 6: single about the TV shows, but nothing in terms of 527 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 6: the travel that he may have done with his girlfriend. 528 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 2: I would I would say this that. 529 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:13,479 Speaker 1: Inevitably, inevitably, there will be some form of negativity towards it. 530 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 2: Right, There always is, And. 531 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: Here's how I would take that negativity right, because it's 532 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: it's not good. I don't think it's going to be 533 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 1: anybody who matters. I think it'll be the the bots 534 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: or the fingers on social media that matters. Okay, but remember, 535 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: in order to watch this or listen to this, you 536 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: have to seek it out, right, you have to seek 537 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: it out. So you can say I don't care about them. Okay, 538 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: well then don't listen and don't watch. 539 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 2: It's fine. It'll be deal like they'll be. They'll be fine. 540 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: So if you say, hey, I watched I listen to one, 541 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: I think it'd be really hard to come away and 542 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: think it's not a real relationship. 543 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 2: It's pretty much impossible. 544 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: And two, they both seem really likable because Travis does 545 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: suddenly take a back seat, which I think he probably likes. 546 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: He's always been the center of attention. Now it's kind 547 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: of cool to have a eorl set of attention, like 548 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: that's that's dope. He can just kind of he can 549 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: just gotta be the arm candy. And then three like again, 550 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 1: the most important thing when somebody says, like, dude, I 551 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: listened to that podcast. Wait so you sought out that podcast, 552 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: downloaded it, listen to it. And then you're like, yeah, 553 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: I'm not into them, Like okay, that's you just you 554 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: want the attention that you think they're trying to get. 555 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 6: Here's where I don't think it's going to uh backfire 556 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 6: on him or in any way or it's going to matter. 557 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 6: Is if he plays well this year, then he's right, 558 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 6: and all the work that he's done with a speed 559 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 6: and agility coach work this offseason and guess what it 560 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 6: was the TV shows. Travis identified the problem and addressed it. 561 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 6: And if it doesn't work, and if he has another 562 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 6: down season, he's just old and his better days are 563 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 6: behind him. I don't think that this is going to 564 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 6: come up. And again, I don't think it mattered. I 565 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 6: don't think it's a big deal. But it's just funny 566 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 6: because it sounds a little hypocritical by Travis to say 567 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 6: it was the TV shows and my attention to that 568 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 6: as opposed to being away for a month and traveling 569 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 6: throughout Europe. 570 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 5: I thought it took like balls for him to admit that, 571 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 5: and for him to admit it on GQ. It wasn't 572 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 5: like a sports mag per se or a sports article 573 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 5: or a reporter, but it took balls. And I think 574 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 5: that only a guy who's had his career already could 575 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 5: say I was distracted last season as my team was 576 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 5: trying to win a third straight Super Bowl. Doug, you 577 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 5: talk about the negativity and the bots and everything. I 578 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 5: think a Chief Sam would have an actual grievance to 579 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 5: be like, wait a minute, you're admitting to being distracted 580 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 5: as we were trying to set history last year. What's 581 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 5: going on here? And I think Kerry Rhadse is probably right. 582 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 5: I think that's his way of not admitting that he's 583 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 5: lost a step. But I think it takes balls, and 584 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 5: it's almost refreshing to hear a guy actually admit I 585 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 5: was distracted. How many athletes through the years, including Lebron James, 586 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 5: have said there's nothing to that. It's always about the basketball. 587 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 5: Everything else is sidebar. Travis Kelcey actually admitting this, I 588 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 5: think kind of puts him out there for criticism, don't 589 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 5: you think. 590 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: Doug, I do again. I didn't hear the entire podcast. 591 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: So were the TV shows he's talking about last year 592 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: or he's talking about in previous years because he did 593 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: the big reality show he did was like, yes, ten 594 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: years ago meant more than that. 595 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 2: I was about of ten years ago. 596 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: I was the CBS at the time, and where he 597 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: dated thirty two women in the offseason. I thought that's 598 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 1: what he was referring to, not to last year. 599 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 6: No, So he didn't mention any of the TV stuff 600 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 6: in the podcast with Taylor yesterday in the New New 601 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 6: Heights episode. It was in the GQ article where it 602 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 6: was pointed out the FX Show and the show that 603 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 6: he did on Amazon that those were the shows, because 604 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 6: I guess there's multiple episodes with the Amazon show, and 605 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 6: maybe I wasn't familiar with the FX show, but those 606 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 6: were specifically pointed out as shows that he did. 607 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: The was it what is it? Something Kelsey is keeping Kelsey, 608 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: I forget what it's called. On the Amazon show, which 609 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: was pretty good. 610 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 6: And this is a different Amazon it was. This was 611 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 6: a different This was like a game show that he 612 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 6: hosted that he ended up being the host. But the 613 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 6: dating show that he did was yeah, that he wasn't 614 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 6: alluding to that? That was a decade or. 615 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 5: Are you smarter than a celebrity? Was the Amazon Prime show? 616 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 2: Okay? 617 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 5: And I wanted to say this dating show is he 618 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 5: didn't he date a woman from every state? Wasn't it 619 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 5: the Kelsey fifty or something stupid like that? 620 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 1: Something like that? Or was it thirty two? I can't remember? Wait, 621 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: so when was the when was the game show? 622 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 2: Was Chasing Kelsey? 623 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 6: I think that the game show was last the Last 624 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 6: off Season twenty twenty four. 625 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 5: Okay, so last fifty women from fifty states vibe for 626 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 5: the heart of a pro football player Chasing Kelsey twenty sixteen. 627 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, so nine years ago I was I was close. 628 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 2: I was close in my ears. 629 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: I remember I interviewed him like he was you talk 630 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: about you talk about a guy who you had I 631 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 1: had no idea would reach superstar status nine years ago. 632 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: Think about how his life changed when Pat Mahomes became 633 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: his quarterback. 634 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 5: We were at the super Bowl maybe it was Los Angeles, 635 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,959 Speaker 5: I forget which super Bowl, and Doug and I are 636 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 5: prepping for the show, and all of a sudden, I 637 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 5: hear Hey, Doug, Doug, somebody trying to get Doug's attention. 638 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 5: Who's being walked by a publicist the other way?

And the fact that Shador Sanders 672 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:16,879 Speaker 1: is the story of the day is a really good 673 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: way to start because it's. 674 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:19,959 Speaker 2: Part of the reason that. 675 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: I obviously he wasn't drafted by some It's if you 676 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,320 Speaker 1: draft a guy and you expect him to be a backup, 677 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: then he cannot get more attention than the starter. Now, 678 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,359 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that he won't be eventually be the starter. 679 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: When you're young, you want to develop et cetera, et cetera. 680 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: But Shad Door Sanders did not practice today. It's unclear 681 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: for the game versus the Eagles if he'll play Saturday. 682 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 1: Here's the good news. He puts some good stuff on tape. 683 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 1: He's in a quarterback competition, and he puts some good 684 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: stuff on tape. The bad news is that, you know, 685 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: the number one part of ability is availability, and it's 686 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: you know, you could sit here and go, well, it's 687 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,800 Speaker 1: not fair he got hurt, but and I know the 688 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: injury is legitimate. Like if you play that, you play well, 689 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: you want to get back out there to keep kind 690 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 1: of climbing the chart. But now you're still four in 691 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: the depth chart. Other guys get an opportunity. Now you 692 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: would think the team on the other side will be 693 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 1: better as we go, but your team will also be better, 694 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 1: and so the better players or the guys higher in 695 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 1: the depth chart are going to play with better talent. 696 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: So yeah, the pressure does go on Trubisky and the 697 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: other quarterbacks. I don't think Flacco has to do anything 698 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 1: to it'll be his job. But to make the team, 699 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:55,840 Speaker 1: your best ability is availability. That's a very cheesy, overused, 700 00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: completely accurate NFL line. 701 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 2: Sorry, I said Trubisky. 702 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 1: I meant Kenny Pickett, right, So you got Pickett, wo 703 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: of course started in Pittsburgh, has a lot of experience. 704 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: Then he got Dylan Gabriel, who they did draft ahead. 705 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 1: And again I've never said I'm a Dylan Gabriel fan. 706 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: But if you drafted Dylan Gabriel in the third round 707 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 1: and then you draft to Shador Sanders in the fifth round, 708 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: I think Shador Sanders to me, and I think most people, 709 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 1: feels like a better kind of true quarterback, like he 710 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: has more potential and upside. Dylan Gabriel is small and 711 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: doesn't have a great arm and kind of you know, 712 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: moves round back there, but not a great athlete. Chador's 713 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: also doesn't have like a plus plus R but not 714 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: a super minus really accurate, a little bit bigger, probably 715 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 1: as or more athletic in terms of escaping stuff. So 716 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: if you draft Dylan Gabriel at three in the third round, 717 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:57,399 Speaker 1: you're saying, we like this prospect on some level more 718 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: then we like Shadoor Sanders. And the guess is that 719 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 1: what they like about Dylan Gabriel is he does what 720 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: he's supposed to do. The ball goes where it's supposed 721 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 1: to go. And then he's egoist, so he could be 722 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback and won't cause any ruckus. And if 723 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: you're a Chaudore and you do like naturally, you do 724 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 1: kind of change the temperature of the room. Some of 725 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 1: it's because of his dad, but a lot of it, 726 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: like let's just be honest, it's because of him and 727 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: his actions, and his actions are a lot like his dad. 728 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 1: But it'll be fascinating to see what happens based upon 729 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 1: what Pickett does, based upon what Dylan Gabriel does, and 730 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 1: based upon how long is he out? How long is 731 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: he out? And just like always here we are spending time. Here, 732 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 1: we are spending time worrying about a guy who may 733 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,359 Speaker 1: or may not play or make a team that very 734 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: likely won't be a in consideration for the playoffs. Hey, 735 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 1: this is what we do. And you could say, hey, 736 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,439 Speaker 1: there's good to it. It brings attention to Cleveland Browns, like, eh, 737 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:18,880 Speaker 1: I don't think that's Stefanski's type. And remember, Shador doesn't 738 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: have the off the field baggage that a Johnny Manziel did. 739 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: But Johnny Manziel was kept, was drafted, kept played because 740 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,479 Speaker 1: he had this big following, and they realized it didn't 741 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 1: matter because one he wasn't working at it and two 742 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: he wasn't good enough. And so my concern for Shaudoor 743 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: is that does the failings of Johnny Manziel ruboff on 744 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: him in addition to the fact that now he's not healthy. 745 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: And then you know, you guys, have have you ever 746 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: had an oblique injury? An oblique injury, it's it's not 747 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: as bad as your back, but it's similar to any 748 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 1: time you twist and move. So if you pull your oblique, 749 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,320 Speaker 1: think about when you're throwing and all the you know 750 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: the dak fa see dak Prescott, which Hudorr Sanders does 751 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 1: in terms of opening up your hips. That's opening up 752 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: your oblique. And you know, we've all pulled muscles before. 753 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 1: What happens with the pulled muscle. You think you're fine, 754 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 1: you don't know, You give it a little extra time, 755 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 1: then you come back and like, oh, right in the 756 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 1: middle of it, you tweak it again. So good news 757 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 1: is Shador Sanders put together a really nice tape of 758 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: his first start. You know, a couple of a couple 759 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: of misfires, really a little bit confused against the defense 760 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: and suppressure early got it together after that played well. 761 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 1: So he's got some good tape. It looks like he 762 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: can be He could be an NFL quarterback despite the 763 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: fact that bad news is a couple of things. One 764 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 1: you look throughout the landscape of the league, a lot 765 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 1: of young quarterbacks having some success really And two, what 766 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: if he would have gotten another chance. It might not 767 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: matter because he might not have gotten a chance this 768 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: week or maybe even the third preseason game. And there 769 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 1: is there's always that wonderment of are they shutting him down? 770 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: Much like NBA team shut guys down or college players 771 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 1: shut it down if they have a good workout, Like 772 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 1: I had a good workout, I'm shutting it down. That's 773 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: where I'm going. I can only screw it up if 774 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,439 Speaker 1: I go work out somewhere else, somewhere else and don't 775 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: play well. Here's Tony Grossi, by the way, who was 776 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 1: on with Colin Cowhard right before our show. They talked 777 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: about the confrontation Shador and him had after the preseason game. 778 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 2: So what did you say that it had him a 779 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 2: whole riled up? 780 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 7: You know, I don't know if there's anything specific. It's 781 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 7: just that since he arrived, I've treated him as just 782 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 7: one of the ninety players. He's got these legion, these 783 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 7: incredible legion of fans who think the Cleveland brown season 784 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 7: is all about Shador Sanders this year, and I've stayed 785 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 7: away from that mentality. Although we talked Shador constantly on 786 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,840 Speaker 7: our ear, I have to be fair to you know, 787 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 7: what else is going on with the team, And there 788 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 7: have been a few things I question. The first time 789 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:05,280 Speaker 7: at Rooking Mini camp, seeing Dylan Gabriel and Shudur Sanders 790 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,439 Speaker 7: on the field together that first day, I came away 791 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 7: and said, I understand why the Browns took Dylan Gabriel 792 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 7: ahead of Shadur Sanders. I thought Gabriel did some things 793 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:16,240 Speaker 7: that Sanders. 794 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 5: At that time didn't do. 795 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 7: I'm not sure there's one smoking gun thing that I 796 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,880 Speaker 7: said to get him riled up. 797 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 5: And that was the first time. 798 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 7: You know, We've been in this camp for three going 799 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 7: on four weeks, and after that game was the first 800 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 7: time he said anything to me. 801 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, do I think it's better than doing 802 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 1: it at the podium? Of course, of course, But there's 803 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: also like this is professional sports. Who cares that it 804 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 1: doesn't matter it doesn't matter. And oh yeah, by the way, 805 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: Tony Grossi is entitled to his opinion. But what you're 806 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: trying to do is intimidate a writer into writing positive 807 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 1: things about you, creating what anybody can consider a false narrative. 808 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: This is what we do now, by the way, And 809 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 1: where does it start? You know where it starts. It 810 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: starts at the top. But this is no different than 811 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: what Dion Sanders did. You know He would do this 812 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: all the time, confront media members if he felt like 813 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:17,880 Speaker 1: they were saying saying something negative, like what is the 814 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 1: point there? What did you accomplish? So now, if you're 815 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 1: Tony Grossei, you're sitting there going, okay, well, I'm just 816 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: trying to do my job. And if I say something 817 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: nice about Shadoor, people are gonna think I'm only saying 818 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 1: nice about something nice about Shador because he confronted me, 819 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,439 Speaker 1: not because he earned it. And if you say something 820 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: negative about him, it's because Shadoor confronted him. And now 821 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 1: he's like, now I'll just be the skip baylist, I'll 822 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: just be negative. Guy, I get it. We all want 823 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: to correct people. I've done this myself, called people up 824 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: never you know, never in public view. And I know 825 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,240 Speaker 1: this was sort of behind the scenes, but he's clearly 826 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: standing over him talking to him and saying, you know, 827 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: why didn't you write something positive. We all do it, 828 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 1: like we'll read things about ourselves, and when something's written 829 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: that's unfair, you want to have somebody point out. But 830 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 1: when you do it yourself, and I have done this 831 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 1: once myself, it does a couple of things. One it 832 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 1: takes you you'll never be in those headlines again on 833 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,439 Speaker 1: some level. Or Two, it makes it when it gets 834 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 1: out that you've done this really awkward to read the 835 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: same person or listen to the same person's work, because 836 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: you don't know if they're saying what they're saying because 837 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: they're mad, or they're just being defensive, or what's actually 838 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 1: going on. I just think it's fascinating how many people, 839 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 1: how many people affect so many hosts, because it's like 840 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: he talks about Shador's lead to event, these are just 841 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 1: people on social media. They're not real people. They're not 842 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 1: and media members get dragged into it and take sides, 843 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: and the voices on social media get amplified. But my 844 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 1: advice to Shador Sanders is really simple. It's like it's 845 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 1: the take that for data or how you like that, 846 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 1: That's all you have to say. It's the same thing, 847 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:21,760 Speaker 1: how you like that. It is exactly like what Shador 848 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: Sanders did, only it's more what he did was confrontational 849 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,879 Speaker 1: and yeah, everywhere he goes there's going to be a camera, 850 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 1: and he knows there's going to be a camera. 851 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,280 Speaker 2: Somebody was filming that. That was intentional.
