Speaker 1: for Dan and the Danetts, and we're gonna get to

5
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 1: this big story involving Tom Brady coming up in a

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: couple of minutes. But you know what, Rob Lisson, we

7
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 1: talked about the Yankees a few minutes ago, and ye

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 1: and clearly, you know we're seeing the big market teams

9
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: in baseball make big runs. Now. You know, the Yankees

10
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: are playing well, the Dodgers seem like they're gaining on

11
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: the Giants. But you know what I can't get over

12
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: is this story the last couple of days that Tops

13
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: is gonna stop making baseball cards. You know, for anybody

14
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: who's been a baseball fan for five minutes and collected

15
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: baseball cards growing up, how could they be stopping when

16
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,599
Speaker 1: these cards is selling for millions and millions of dollars?

17
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: I know, it's insane, Like the card business has never

18
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: been bigger, despite the fact, like there's a glut of

19
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: cards on there. But Tops was always it, right, I mean,

20
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: this was all like when you get like year and

21
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: Don Russ and all these different ones. Just save my

22
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: morn to go get cards. I remember it was a

23
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: big deal. Yeah you got but get the wax pack

24
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: of cards and you open it up and the gum

25
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: is so you know, it's so hard you couldn't you

26
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: take it like ten minutes to get to chew it.

27
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: But it's like, I get that there's all these different

28
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: cards going out now. And here's cardon here's here's part

29
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: of a game war in Jersey on a card, and

30
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: here's this and this card came out immediately. It's worth like,

31
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: you know, five thousand dollars. But seeing tops being locked

32
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: out of this now and in a couple of years,

33
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make baseball cards anymore, It's like, oh wow,

34
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: there's just something wrong with that. But but it's just

35
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: because they're not gonna it's just that other people have

36
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: jumped up in and a willing right to strike. They

37
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: struck a better deal with baseball, right, They're just there's

38
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: seventy year partnership is out. Other people have seen how

39
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: lucrative this is and have jumped in. You know, I

40
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, Mike Harmoner's my partner on the air every

41
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: night on Fox. You know, we come on after after

42
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: your show, and he's a huge card guy, and he

43
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: tells me, you know you wouldn't you'd be stunned at

44
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: how hard this is to stay on top of with

45
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: new cards coming out, and it's like playing the stock

46
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: market where it's like, oh, this card is coming out,

47
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 1: what's the This is like, I'm gonna I gotta try

48
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: to get like fifty of these cards because the price,

49
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: what it's gonna be in the price I would be

50
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: able to sell it at coming up and in like

51
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: six months is gonna be insane, And it really is. It.

52
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: It's kind of like a junior stock market type situation

53
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: where oh, no, this is the one card and some

54
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: cards come out like boy, this could be a great card,

55
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, it was worth ten dollars and

56
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: now it's worth ten dollars. And some cards are ten

57
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: dollars worth and now they're they're one hundred and fifty

58
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: dollars just a couple of months later. It's it's crazy.

59
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: It definitely definitely is it is. That's the end of

60
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: an era. Really top seventy year relationship with Major League

61
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: Baseball and the baseball trading cards have always been the king.

62
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: I don't know why NBA cards and football NFL cards

63
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: never had the same traction, but not that they're on

64
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: a couple of those cards, you know what I mean,

65
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: for a couple of players who are really stand out,

66
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: But baseball cards have been the king. And didn't you

67
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: cover the very first year of Tops. I'm a great beer, Jason,

68
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: But I'm not that old. I mean, that's not that old.

69
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: Who's this new company? Tops are gonna work. You gotta

70
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: get the Honus Wagner card. That's the one, all right.

71
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: So this morning you got a big column up on

72
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: deadbin dot com. And look, this is a story that

73
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: maybe some people saw earlier in the week that Tom

74
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: Brady's kid is a ball boy for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

75
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: Now Brady has talked about it's been kind of a

76
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: bunch of laughs around around the NFL circles. But you

77
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: have a column on here that's saying that this is

78
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: not a great story. Explain that a little bit here

79
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: for a second. And I want to say this. I

80
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: hope people will go to deadspin for real and read

81
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: my column, okay, because I think it's too quick to

82
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: just dismiss Jason. You know, right away to be like, oh,

83
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: now he's ripping on Brady's kid or whatever. That's not

84
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: what the column is about. Okay, So it's not seven

85
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: hundred words ripping on Brady's a thirteen year old son

86
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: about him being a ball boy. There's a bigger problem here.

87
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 1: And you thought whokamania was running wild back in the

88
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: eighties or whatever. It's nepotism in the NFL. Jason, this

89
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: is what I'm writing about. It's nepotism, and it's the

90
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: main reason that so many black people can't get jobs

91
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: when they're playing careers are over in the league, and

92
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: a lot of people will discount it, but too often

93
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: white owners, coaches, front office people hire and promote family members.

94
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: Despite the league being almost seventy five percent black, they

95
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: can't sneak in through the back door, you know, for

96
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: coaching situations the way white counterparts can. And that's the

97
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: proble problem. There have been a ton of father son relationships,

98
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: and we can go on and on and on, but

99
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: probably here's the best one. Can you imagine a black

100
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: player who didn't even play football in college, but say

101
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: golf of all sports, right, getting an NFL head coaching job.

102
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: That sounds ludicrous, right, ridiculous, Jason, doesn't it? Go ahead?

103
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 1: Todd Harley, that's his reality. That's what he did. Why

104
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: his dad was the director of player personnel for the

105
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers and the Jets. He hired Todd. He Todd

106
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: was a ball boy when he was a kid, just

107
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: like Brady's son. He went to the training camps. All

108
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: that his dad was able to get get him in

109
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: the door with the Jets. He got his coaching career started,

110
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: and he wound up being in two thousand and nine

111
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: to chief the head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs.

112
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 1: We can go on and on and on. During the

113
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter, I remember Kyle Shanahan making a big

114
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: stink remember this quote. How the heck are there are

115
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: only four black coaches out of thirty two head coaches?

116
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 1: How are there only two black two gms? I mean,

117
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: we're in a predominantly black league. The majority of our

118
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: players are black. So the fact that there's that few,

119
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: that's not debatable. Well, Kyle, the problem is nepotism. It's

120
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: rampant in the NFL. Mike Shanahan, Yes, your dad hired you.

121
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: You were the offensive coordinator do you know what the

122
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: Washington's offensive ranks were his first three years as offensive coordinator,

123
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: twenty fifth in the league, twenty six, twenty third. You

124
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: didn't get fired, You were able to keep your job.

125
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: The NFL had to put in the Rooney Rule to

126
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: force owners to interview black people. Rod Marinelli, remember when

127
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: he was hired as Lions coach in two thousand and six.

128
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 1: Let me see who he hired, defensive coordinator Joe Barry,

129
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: his son in law. He also hired Joe Barry's father, Mike,

130
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: who was his assistant offensive line coach. You want more,

131
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: there's more Bill Belichick's son on the payroll, right, so

132
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: Andy Reid's sons. I mean, we could go on and

133
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: on and on. There's about ten father and son teams

134
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: that have been coaches and none of them are black. None.

135
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: So everybody can look at this as just a lighthearted story.

136
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: That's great Brady's kids out there, but it brings light

137
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: to a bigger problem. And that's why I wrote about it.

138
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: Nepotism in the NFL is alive and well, and that

139
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: is a deterrent to black people. Here's the other thing, Jason.

140
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: Most companies won't allow it because when you do that,

141
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: you do restrict other people from gaining access to a

142
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: company and too opportunities. So it sounds like a fun

143
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: summer story. Oh, this is great. Brady's sons out theories

144
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: a ball boy. I'm sure there was some black or

145
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: brown kid in Tampa who would love an opportunity like that,

146
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: who will never get one because they don't have an

147
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: ind they don't have a relative who works for the team.

148
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: And that's the separation. And when black people do get

149
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: a head coaching job or situation, Jason, they can't hire

150
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: their family. They can't do it. It would be frowned

151
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: upon if they hired their cousin and their brother and

152
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: people like that. But in the NFL, when you're a

153
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: white head coach, you can do whatever you want. All right, now,

154
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: let me let me just chant a little bit of

155
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 1: Chris Brussard here, your partner on the Odd Couple. When

156
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: I tell you this about this part about Tom Brady's kid, Rob,

157
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: stop it. Look, I get your point, right, I understan

158
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: Dan your point about nepotism in the NFL. Would you

159
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: admit it's a big problem. It is, Yes, I admit

160
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: it's that you're talking about not having enough black head coaches.

161
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: And I completely get that, and look you're spot on

162
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 1: with that, but dude, come on, man, this is Brady's

163
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: kid being a ball boy at practice. This is this

164
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: is not Hey, somebody's son got a job as an

165
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, all right, this is you know, you don't

166
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: think Patrick Mahomes or Cam Newton or any Gore, Russell Wilson,

167
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: any of their kids when they haven't looking Brady. Brady's

168
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: one of the few who's old enough to have a

169
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: kid who's fourteen years old that can go play because

170
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: he's forty four years old. You don't think any of

171
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: these guys, as they get they'd be able to have

172
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: their kid going and be a ball boy. You don't

173
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: think of Russell Wilson had a fourteen year old, fifteen

174
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 1: year old kid, Hey, I want my son to be

175
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: a ball boy. The Seahawks wouldn't say, oh, yeah, go ahead, Russell.

176
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: Of course you would. Look, Brady just happens to be

177
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: forty four, so he's got a kid that's young enough

178
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: and they let him be the ball boy. I don't

179
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: I don't see that being a problem as far as

180
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: I just got a different Todd Haley becoming by That's

181
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: how Todd Haley got started. That's how Todd Haley became

182
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 1: an NFL head coach without even playing football. Pass the

183
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: youth level, come on, because he got he know, he

184
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: had an end. That's what I'm talking about, having an end.

185
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: So you don't think of it as innocent as a

186
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: ball boy, and you don't think anything of it. I'm

187
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: sure when Todd Haley was at Steelers and Jets camp

188
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: as a as a ball boy, nobody thought anything of it.

189
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 1: They thought it was cute. Oh, that's cool. Haley's got

190
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: his kid out here as a ball boy. He wound

191
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: up being an NFL head coach. That's what I'm talking about,

192
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: his inn But just tell him Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson,

193
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, any of the star black quarterbacks in the game,

194
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, any of those, if they had a kid

195
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: who wanted to be a ball boy. The team tells

196
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: them no. John Harbor tells Lamar Jackson, No, you kid can't.

197
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: Your kid can't be a ball boy. Can't do it,

198
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: can't do it. No. I mean, I think I'm gonna

199
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: saying that there's a ways you can I think there's

200
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: other ways you can explain that and say, look, here's

201
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: the problem with nepotism, and here's why why black people

202
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: can't get their foot in the door. I get that,

203
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: but we're talking about a ball boy where if any

204
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: of these guys were old enough and had those kids, yeah,

205
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: of course they're getting a gig. You tell me any

206
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: other star black player in the NFL couldn't do it.

207
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: If DeAndre Hopkins had a kid who was fourteen, hey

208
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: can my son be a ball boy? That everybody's kid

209
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: can't be a ball boy, Jason, So that's a myth.

210
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 1: I mean sure, I know everybody wants it. Everybody. Most

211
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: players probably have kids. They would love for their kids

212
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: to come to work with them and be a ball

213
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: boy and be a part of the team. You can't

214
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: do that for everybody. It's a special thing that only

215
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: a handful of people get to do, and you know it,

216
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,959
Speaker 1: everybody can't do it. And my point is that we've

217
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: seen the nepotism in this league. It is a disease.

218
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: There's no way Rod Marinelli should have been able to

219
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 1: hire his family members. He had never even been a

220
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 1: head coach at any level high school or college, but

221
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 1: he's hiring his family. I'm just I don't know. Can

222
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 1: you tell no, I get that, but that's not but

223
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: that's not being a boy. His kid could go be

224
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: a ball boy for a for a couple of days

225
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: and then leave and go do something else. I mean,

226
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: it's like, it's like what I hire as an intern.

227
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 1: If someone, if someone I knew, came to me and said, hey,

228
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: could could you hire my kid as an intern at

229
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio? Yeah, okay, I know you. I could

230
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: have that happen and you can come be an intern

231
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: and work on the show. You could have that happen too,

232
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: if someone said, hey, Rob, would you kid? Can my

233
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 1: kid come in and be an intern for it? Yeah?

234
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: I can make a phone call for you. You're talking

235
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: about being a ball for a kid having fun doing something,

236
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: And it's not like every kid that starts as a

237
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: ball boy goes on to be this this big deal

238
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: in the National Football League something. He was Todd Haley.

239
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: But I'm giving you, uh uh Andy Reed's kids all

240
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: kinds of issues, drug rest, all kinds of stuff. Those

241
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: guys are coaches in the NFL. Can you can you

242
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,479
Speaker 1: give me that Yes has two sons on his coaches.

243
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: I'm with you, but you're you're named the coach and

244
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: two of his sons named the name the black coach

245
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 1: that had two sons on the payroll. I don't know

246
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: if any because I don't think they're able to do that.

247
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: And all I'm saying is this is a big problem

248
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL and people need to address it. I'm

249
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: not attacking Brady's kid. I'm just telling you of how

250
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 1: things work. This is exhibit A. It just it just

251
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: hit hammers home the difference between black and white in

252
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: the NFL. Who gets special treatment, who gets uh special favors,

253
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: who don't? The people who don't get those. That's all

254
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: this column is about. That's all. If there if there

255
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 1: was a forty four year old superstar black quarterback in

256
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: the NFL that had an age appropriate kid, of course,

257
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: he's kid's gonna be a it's gonna be a ball boy.

258
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: I think you could you could have made a different

259
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: analogy to Hey, this is something that is part of

260
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: the systemic problem in the National Football League, that being

261
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: a ballboy. Okay, it's a ball boy. It's like yeah,

262
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 1: like I said, it's like being an intern. Yeah, Hey,

263
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: it's great. My kid gets to be a ball boy

264
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: here for a little bit. He gets to run around

265
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: the field at practice and have some fun. He's around

266
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: the guys in training camp. That's okay, that's a that's

267
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: a big leap to go from Hey, Brady's kid being

268
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: a ball boy too. Hey, how are all these guys

269
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: hiring their their their kids to go be something huge.

270
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: It's not like they said, Hey, guess why, Brady, your

271
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: kid's coming in and he's gonna break down film and

272
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: gonna be a big, big assistant. I mean, that's not this.

273
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: It's it's being a ball boy. Yeah, I think it's

274
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: I think we can look at that because he's only thirteen,

275
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: and you think it's not a big deal, it's just

276
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: a fun summer story or whatever. But when you look

277
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: at the Patriots and Bill Belichick's son Steve and Brian

278
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: who are on his staff, and Andy Reid's kids who

279
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: are on his staff, it's just stuff like that that

280
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: you take you can look at and they're only there

281
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: for one reason, and one reason only because they have

282
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 1: powerful dads who are in those positions. That's why they've

283
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: gotten those opportunities. And it's a damn shame when you

284
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: have all these black players who have played football who

285
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: want opportunities after they're done playing, and they're not there.

286
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: That's that's what I'm talking about. And most people don't

287
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: won't read the column, don't want to open up their minds.

288
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you this is a huge problem in

289
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: the NFL, nepotism and it needs to stop in order

290
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: to give all people access and all people a chance

291
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: to work in that league. And that's not where we are.

292
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: You can read the column up on dead Spin right

293
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: now with Rob Parker. Uh, it's right there. Look, you

294
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: and I are an opposite sides of the ball boy

295
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,600

300
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: do that. I'm just kidding you did. I wouldn't do that. No,

301
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: so student, oh no. The compact g LA proves it's

302
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: not the size of the suv in the fight. It's

303

Speaker 1: Fox Sports One NBA insider is Draymond Green trying to

327
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 1: force his way out of Golden State. And how upset

328
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: is Lebron who got zero votes from a canvassing of

329
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: scouts and executives around the National Basketball Association for being

330
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: the best player in the NBA. He puts out on

331
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: social media, he's using it as fire for the season

332
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: and fuel. And I feel like every five seconds Lebron

333
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 1: is putting something out there is fire and fuel. Rick

334
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: joins us now on the hotline, Rick, were you one

335
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: of the people canvas and use No, Lebron's not one

336
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: of the best players in the game anymore. Were you

337
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: on that list? Uh? No, I've never masqueraded as a

338
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: executive or a scout. I occasionally play one on TV,

339
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: but I was not. I was not taking this one

340
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 1: in this h in this particular poll. It would be

341
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: interesting to know to have some sense of when we

342
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 1: say executive or what are we talking about, Like, um,

343
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: are we talking about an assistant GM? We're talking about GM.

344
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: We're talking about where where where are they on the

345
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: on the chain? But you guys have probably talked about

346
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 1: it that. I mean, you know what that's like Jason

347
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: imitating a a sports talk show host in a movie.

348
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:47,360
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Good morning morning, Yes, starting

349
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 1: the day that way, Rob Parker, goodness great. Two and

350
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: a half hours into this, Ricketts is what the morning

351
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: has been for me. It's a rough ride. It's a

352
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 1: rough ride. It's all yeah, God, God bless you get

353
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: some icy hot afterwards, and you're obviously going to be tattooed. Yeah. No,

354
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know why people equate this with

355
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,239
Speaker 1: an MVP vote, Like you have five names on the

356
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: ballot and Lebron wasn't mentioned, or even Lebron taking it

357
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 1: that way, Ye, ten separate people that are naming somebody,

358
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: and there's no metric, there's no statistic, there's no achievement.

359
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 1: There is not a single thing that would lead you

360
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 1: to say that Lebron James was the best player in

361
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: the league last year. Not one. So you're if you

362
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 1: did pick Lebron over Yannis or Kad, you would be

363
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: basing it on what he's done previously or what you

364
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: think he can get back to, but not what he's

365
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: demonstrated that he is as of right today. Definitely. And

366
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: we got to always understand this and all of Lebron's minions,

367
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: it's not a lifetime achievement award, you know, you know

368
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: what I mean, like like that's what they think it is.

369
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: Like if you say anything about Lebron, what are you

370
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 1: talking about? Want the greatest player of all time? And

371
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: he's done this, he's done that, he's been all these

372
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: fun No, we're talking about right now, right right. And

373
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: if you take if you take ten ten people and

374
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: you ask them, give me one name, it's not shocked.

375
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: It would it would have been shocking if someone hit

376
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 1: said Lebron to be honest, over those two guys because

377
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: of what we just saw them demonstrate and so and

378
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: I understand both of them. And by the way, if

379
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: we are talking about right now, then how come the

380
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: Steph Curry minions aren't speaking up? Or yep, the Nicolay minions.

381
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: I don't even know if he has minions, but if

382
00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: a couple, right, why are they not speaking up? Because

383
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 1: both of those guys have a better case that they're

384
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: the best player in the league right now then Lebron

385
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: James does. At least Steph Curry was the leading scorer

386
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 1: in the league last season. Nicolaokich is the reigning MVP.

387
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: But you don't hear them or their minions complaining that

388
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: they didn't get any votes among these ten people, or

389
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 1: that they're now motivated because if the washed splash wash

390
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: King how many? How many times is Lebron gonna go

391
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: to this? Well? Don't you remember after he didn't he

392
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,199
Speaker 1: didn't win the MVP. Uh, you know, in twenty twenty

393
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: he kind of vowed that he was Oh yeah, you

394
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 1: guys you watched How could you guys disrespect me and

395
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: all this? I'm like, what are you talking about? Like Joannis,

396
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: Not only did Janis have a great season and the

397
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: Bucks had the best record they had a Janis had

398
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: better numbers than the year before when he won the MVP,

399
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: and Lebron somehow thought he was going to be the MVP. Rick,

400
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: I don't get it. Yeah, well, I mean I I

401
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: thought that Lebron deserve the MVP that year. I think

402
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: you really overall, yes, I did. Anthony Davis had better

403
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: numbers than him all across except for assists. Yeah, But

404
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: I to me, it's not It's not just numbers, And

405
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 1: that's why I would never make a case that Steph

406
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: Curry is the best player in in in the league.

407
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: And it's why Nikola Yokis didn't get my MVP vote

408
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: this year. Jannis for the first time, got my MVP

409
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 1: vote this season. Because it's not for me just the

410
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 1: numbers that you get, but it's how you get those numbers.

411
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: And I dare say that when I look at Anthony

412
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,400
Speaker 1: Davis's numbers in that season, they were they were a

413
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: product of playing with Lebron James. That it wasn't as

414
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: if Anthony Davis was the driving force of the team.

415
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: He was the beneficiary of the things that Lebron James

416
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 1: was doing the way he was organizing that team. The

417
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: reason that I gave Jannie or put Jannis at the

418
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 1: top of my MVP ballot this year is because for

419
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: the first time I saw him taking a leadership role.

420
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: I saw him playing below the free throw line and

421
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: making plays and they don't necessarily end up with a

422
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: number as a result of that play, but it ends

423
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,199
Speaker 1: up with an open shot or an easy play, and

424
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: those were things that I did not see Yannis doing

425
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 1: in previous years. So MVP for me goes a little

426
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: bit deeper than the numbers across the board. It to

427
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: me is always there's there's the element of how you

428
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: get those numbers, how do you lead your team, and

429
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: just the intangibles. You know, the Milwaukee buff started slow

430
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,719
Speaker 1: and Jannie was there saying, hey, we're doing some things different,

431
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: changing things up. We just need to stay the course.

432
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: That was an emotional leadership that he provided for them

433
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: that they needed and that was important to come from

434
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 1: their best player. And so I I those are intangibles

435
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: and people can say that's part, that's narrative, it's not

436
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: hard data. But to me, those are elements that make

437
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: for an MVP and Lebron James teaching a d how

438
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 1: to win to me and how to how to put

439
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:37,360
Speaker 1: together winning numbers was an important part of that season.

440
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: Now wait a minute, Rick, you told me you voted

441
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: for Julius Randall for MVP. Now you tell me your

442
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: honest I just well, see, Jason, I play a different

443
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 1: character when I'm on with you in the Eve's right, Oh,

444
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 1: I play I played for my crowd, and Rob Parker

445
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: made me right. If you were buying that, then we

446
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 1: have we have exactly. And you know, Rick, it's easier

447
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 1: to say those things. You know, you know, nobody's listening

448
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: to that show with Jason. Oh my good. I'm just

Speaker 1: I never Hey, I never missed the Jason Smith Show.

450
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 1: I never listened to him, so I never missed it.

451
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: Wow Jason, Wow, Wow. And here this is what here.

452
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: Jason told me that he decided to do you a

453
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: solid and bring you onto the show. This right, I know, Wow, Rick,

456
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: you're happy to do it. And by the way, I've

457
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 1: never ducked so many times on a radio show in

458
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: my life. Wow, Rick Bucker our guest here the Jason

459
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 1: Smith Show with Rob Parker in for Dan and the Dan.

460
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: That's today, all right, So from Lebron, Well, let's talk

461
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: about something you and I talked about early in the

462
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 1: week on a show that has more affiliates and Rob

463
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: Parker's show. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry was that. I'm

464
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: sorry about that? So listen, we're still talking about the

465
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: fall out of the Draymond Green Kevin Durant situation, the

466
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: show they did in which they both said, Hey, it's

467
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: Bob Myers and Steve Kerr's fault. Why the dynasty broke

468
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: up because of the way they handled our disagreement that

469
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,479
Speaker 1: we had in twenty eighteen. As time has gone on,

470
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 1: like you see this, look, Draymond Green is a smart guy.

471
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: He knows the impact of his words. Is this Draymond

472
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: pulling a James Harden going, you know what, whatever conversations

473
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: we've had at the at the Olympics when everybody's hanging

474
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: out and hey, I want out of Golden State now

475
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 1: because I want to get someplace else because you're blowtorching

476
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: your GM and your coach. There's something that was three

477
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 1: years ago. Yeah, I have not heard definitively that that

478
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 1: was the purpose behind what he said, and there then

479
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 1: it remains of possibility that it was simply I want

480
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 1: to clear mind name and I want to do something

481
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 1: that's explosive on my first podcast as I prepare myself

482
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: for my post set, my post playing career, I do,

483
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: I will tell you that it did not sit well

484
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: at all with the Warriors, and that yeah, from either

485
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: one of them, and it does undermine their authority and

486
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: moving forward trying to trying to put this team together

487
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: and as uh, you know, as I said, before, like

488
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: the players this is not this is It would be

489
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: one thing if this was just the championship team and

490
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: these were all guys that have this This team was

491
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: composed of guys that had won a championship with Draymond,

492
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: and they could all look at it and go, Okay,

493
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: Draymond's just being Draymond. But they have a bunch of

494
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: guys who have never had that success, who have never

495
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: been in the foxhole with Steve Kerr, have not seen

496
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: the moves that Bob Meyers made in order to fill

497
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 1: out a championship roster. So you got guys like Jordan

498
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: Pool and James Wiseman and Juantas Kano I understand, who

499
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 1: now look at Steve Kerr and Bob Meyers in a

500
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: different light in terms of what Draymond said. Now they're like, really,

501
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: that's that's how we handled like how they handled that situation.

502
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 1: And Draymond is saying like, they don't know how to

503
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: do this. So when some the next incident that bubbles up,

504
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: like our guys going to just step in line or

505
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: take the counsel that they get from the Warriors, I

506
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: would think that they're gonna look at it, maybe in

507
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: a different way and say, well, how do you how

508
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: do you know what you're doing? Like you messed up

509
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,479
Speaker 1: KD being here and and the worst part of it

510
00:28:53,560 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: is Kade was leaving anyway, that argument and that situation everybody,

511
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: it's become such a big deal. How dare Draymond do it?

512
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: I mean that if there was an overreaction on that too,

513
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: beefs like that happened. And the fact that if you

514
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 1: watch and I've gone back and watch that play more

515
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: times than I've maybe watched any other play KDS at

516
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: least in part to blame because of how he played

517
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: that particular play. There was five and a half seconds

518
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: left on the clock when Draymond got the rebound. Clay

519
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: runs the floor and runs past Draymond getting to a

520
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: spot because it's tied one of six. You don't need

521
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: a three. KD trails and is clapping his hands like

522
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: give me the ball, give me the ball, give me

523
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: the ball. Draymond Greene was the leading playmaker on that team,

524
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: the leading assist man the previous three years and again

525
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 1: that season, so it would not be extraordinary for Draymond

526
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: green to lead the break. Was he looking to take

527
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: the shot? No, we know what Draymond. We know Draymond's

528
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: going to get the ball to a guy who can shoot.

529
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to take that shot. He was just

530
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: trying to create the best shot possible and fell down.

531
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: And Katie's the one who, like, you screwed that up.

532
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: You didn't give me the ball, and that led to

533
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: everything else. So I mean, if I want to look

534
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: at it, I can, Rather than immediately blaming Draymond, I'd

535
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: look at it and say, a Katie, you needed to

536
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: show a little more respect to Draymond in that situation.

537
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: And by any means, you're in the middle of the

538
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: game and ain't time to start getting on a guy

539
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: because he turned the ball over. If you're doing that,

540
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: you're there's no team that can survive that, and you

541
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: don't see that happen, especially with good teams, especially with

542
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: championship caliber teams. So I just feel like this who

543
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: that that whole situation has been twisted into something that

544
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: it was not. And this is the last twist is

545
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: now we're going to twist it into it's Steve Kerr

546
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: and Bob and Bob Meyers fault. I mean, it's just

547
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: it's become something completely else. From what it started to be. Hey, Rick,

548
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: I want to ask you quickly, did we know that

549
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 1: end was coming for Patrick Beverlely? Uh? You know, Tylu

550
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 1: benched him, you know, during the playoffs and now I

551
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 1: think he's been traded to eight different teams since he's

552
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: left the Clippers, something like that. But but did Tylu

553
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: kind of signaled that this was going to happen? Did

554
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 1: didn't he? Yeah? Well, look, I mean, obviously they made

555
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: some decisions, particularly in the playoffs, when he was being

556
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 1: yo yoed in and out of the starting lineup, in

557
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: and out of the rotation, and he's making fourteen mill

558
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: and he's a big personality and the game his game

559
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: can no longer match the presence that he has on

560
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: a team, and that or the money that he's making. Now,

561
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: they just from a logistical standpoint, they had to make

562
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: a move because they had too many guaranteed contracts and

563
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: they were going to keep Nick Batoum and they also

564
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 1: played playff Yes, and and and Pat Bev I've never

565
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 1: been more impressed than how he played in the playoffs,

566
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: in spite of his role being yo yoed all over

567
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: the place. But the question you had to ask is

568
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: one how you know we can get thirty million dollars

569
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: off of our cap. I mean the luxury tax that

570
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 1: they're paying is still nine to pay, and a ninety

571
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: million dollar luxury tax as is, it was going to

572
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: be some one hundred and twenty five million they had

573
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: to get. They had to open up a roster spot

574
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: and move multiple guys, and you had to ask the question,

575
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: if we use Pat Bev the same way where he

576
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: may not play multiple games in a row, he may

577
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: only play five minutes one particular night. Is Pat Bev

578
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: gonna be okay with that an entire season or is

579
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: that going to be a problem in our locker room?

580
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: And it was one thing for it to be for

581
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: him to swallow it during the playoffs, it would be

582
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 1: another for him to do it an entire year. And

583
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: I think they looked at it and said, we just look,

584
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: Reggie Jackson played well, Terence Mann played well, We have

585
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: other Paul George as our playmaker. Anyway we can, we

586
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: can survive without Pat Bev, and we need to make

587
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 1: a move. So I think all of those factors contributed

588
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 1: to why he's been moved along. And you know, we'll

589
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 1: see whether I mean, I could I could see where

590
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: he could have a role with the Minnesota Timberls. I

591
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: think that's where we last saw him or where he

592
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: was last dealt. And but then again, you look at

593
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: those young guys and they didn't take well to Jimmy

594
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: Butler's approach, and I would imagine Pat Bev isn't that different.

595
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: So we shall see. But I think there were a

596
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: number of factors, but one of them, as you mentioned, Rob,

597
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: is the fact that that Pat Bev isn't quite what

598
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: Pat Bev used to be, no doubt, no doubt. He's

599
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 1: on Twitter at Rick Buker, that is at Rick Buker

600
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,879
Speaker 1: Fox Sports one analysts. Check out us on the Ball

604
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: me and you, we go way back. We were coming

605
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: to the NBA when the ball had laces on it.

606
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Easy, easy Rob, Uncle Rob.

607
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: Easy easy Bro Rob was the guy that said, doctor Naysmith,

608
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: you gotta cut the bottom off of the basket and

609
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: let the ball go all the way through the peach bass.

610
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: You gotta go back up and get it. Yeah, if

611
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: you if you look closely at the at the photos,

612
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 1: there's a second guy sitting behind red hour box smoking

613
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: with cigar. It's uncle Rob. Unbelievable. Rick is always buddy,

616
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: it's look, it's it's pretty much. I mean, that's why.

617
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: It's like Lebron is the only one he talked about Hey,

618
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 1: Rick Agreek, Lebron's like the only one that thinks he's

619
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 1: not the best one that I think he's the best

620
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: player in the league. Still, like he's the only one.

621
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 1: There's no it's Rick said, there's nobody that you would say, hey,

622
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 1: is Lebron the best player and go, yes, he's the

623
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:31,839
Speaker 1: best player in the League's like he's the only one

624
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: that doesn't think so No, I don't. I don't even

625
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 1: get it. I just Lebron just surprises me. He's so

626
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 1: sensitive and weeds everything and thinks everybody has to be

627
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,919
Speaker 1: on board. Or there's some sort of conspiracy twitter at,

628

00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,360

656
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: before we get into Trevor Bauer, Rob Parker, you know,

657
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: big news has come in in the past forty five minutes.

658
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: Apparently Aaron Rodgers may still be in the running to

659
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 1: be the new Jeopardy host, as Mike Richards has stepped

660
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: down from Wow this following Yeah, I mean, it's it's

661
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: a big to hear about the podcast stuff that he had,

662
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,760
Speaker 1: you know. And that's the thing is that he's stepping

663
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: down because of comments he made in a podcast he

664
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: hosted about eight years ago called The Random Show, in

665
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: which he made many derogatory comments involving females and female hosts.

666
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: And there's a litanyum and also ju was in all

667
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: kinds of people, what a what a mess? You know?

668
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: And and here's the thing is that you know, well,

669
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: why why does this happen? Why does this happen? Now? Well,

670
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 1: Richards was very unpopular pick when he took over. He

671
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 1: was executive producer. Now he's taking over, and many fans

672
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: were upset. People were upset. And when that happens, everybody

673
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 1: goes through your past and says, Okay, I don't like this.

674
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 1: And nobody knew about this podcast, like Sony said, we

675
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: didn't know about this until the ringer told them. So

676
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 1: this is where, you know, people were pissed off, saying,

677
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't like how he did this,

678
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: this this, Hey, why don't you go listen to this

679
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 1: podcast and see what it is? And boom, and this

680
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 1: is what happens, and now he resigns because of it.

681
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: Like this, this was backlash of people didn't like him

682
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: and so, hey, but I can't believe you didn't see this.

683
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 1: But Jason, people could say that they don't like him

684
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 1: if you don't have those things in your past though,

685
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,359
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like people could say, well,

686
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 1: we don't like that guy, but it's still about what

687
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 1: he said and the stuff that he did. He acknowledged

688
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,800
Speaker 1: it that he did it, and he made a mistake.

689
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 1: But nowadays you know everything people you know, it's not

690
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: like the old days you say something that nobody can

691
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 1: find it or they didn't record it. Everything is stored.

692
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:18,240
Speaker 1: It's like people's social media, right, same thing. All these players,

693
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: you remember at one point they were going back in

694
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 1: these kids social media's and seeing all these bad things

695
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: that they were saying and whatnot in their lives. I mean,

696
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a paper trail for everybody. Yeah, and

697
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: it's amazing that look and clearly you see that he

698
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: was not a good guy, right with all these things

699
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: going on. There's reports of the treatment he had of

700
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: staff when he was there at Jeopardy, and it's like,

701
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: how do you not know this? How do you you

702
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 1: go through it like a six month period of auditioning,

703
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 1: everybody going through, Oh we didn't know about this stuff? Really,

704
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: how do you not know about this stuff that he did? Really?

705
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: I get if it's like, you know, hey, one obscure

706
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,800
Speaker 1: comment made in a podcast for some reason didn't resonate.

707
00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: I understand that, oh hey, but we didn't see it.

708
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: But this is like you go through they went through

709
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 1: the entire podcast and there's a litany of stuff that

710
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: they guy right, it's not even one thing. You're right,

711
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 1: and Sony, for whatever reason, they were hell bent on

712
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: him because there was some other stuff before this on

713
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 1: how he treated people right at the prices right or

714
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 1: something to show he was at before. You remember that

715
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: there was something there. I'm sure Mike Richards is sick.

716
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 1: You get your finally get your dream opportunity. Do you

717
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,879
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Jason? And it's it's pulled from

718
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: from from you because of stuff that you've done. Twitter

719
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: at how about a Fresca rob at Rob Parker FS one.

720
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: So that's a big story that's gonna unroll itself throughout

721
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 1: the day here. Uh and something else we talked about

722
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 1: today when it comes to Major League Baseball and Trevor

723
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 1: Bauer is. A day ago he had the uh the

724
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:55,000
Speaker 1: lawsuit against some more or the or the protection lawsuit

725
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,880
Speaker 1: against him dismissed by a judge here in Los Angeles.

726
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 1: The woman who was accute used him of sexual assault

727
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: during their sexual encounters. U does not get the restraining

728
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 1: order that she wanted against him, the judge saying that

729
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:15,839
Speaker 1: what he did with her sexually wasn't anything that she said, Hey,

730
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 1: you passed the boundary for it. So here's a win,

731
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: you know, for Trevor Bauer as he tries to make

732
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: his way back. Now, clearly there's still stuff with a

733
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: passing the police and Major League Baseball investigation. But you

734
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 1: know what, Rob, no matter what, even though yesterday turned

735
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 1: out to be a good day for Trevor Bauers talking

736
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: about you know, good days and bad days and lawcases,

737
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 1: there's no way I can see him coming back to

738
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,359
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball this year. No way he ever comes

739
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: back to the Dodgers and baseball. It's gonna be tough,

740
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 1: and it's going to be a thing about trying to

741
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:43,800
Speaker 1: figure out how much money he is still owed because

742
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,759
Speaker 1: knowing that he can do this to somebody, you know,

743
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: you know, when the line of consent is still a

744
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: thing we're figuring out, knowing how can you have this

745
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:58,359
Speaker 1: guy around? I mean, that's that's a really difficult thing, man, right.

746
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think once you know how

747
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 1: somebody gets down behind closed doors and it's public, and

748
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:09,239
Speaker 1: we've talked about it earlier, Jason, those pictures are out there.

749
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,520
Speaker 1: There's no way. Once you see those, it's hard to

750
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 1: pull those back. Imagine taking your family Jason the Dodger

751
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 1: Stadium and they're booing the heck out of him if

752
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,760
Speaker 1: he was back on the mound and your daughter asking

753
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 1: you why Dad, he hasn't pitched yet. Dad, what's going on? Why?

754
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 1: Why are they buoying him like that? What do you know?

755
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: What I mean? Like, how do you explain that to

756
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: your children? It's hard. It's hard, man. And look and

757
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 1: even when you're getting from there, think about locker rooms

758
