All right, pull question mcloven. 14 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna stay with what we had in the first hour. 15 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: I actually haven't put one up yet because I would 16 00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: need your guy's input. Two questions I have. Who's gonna 17 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: have a better rookie season? Mac Jones or Trevor Lawrence? Okay, 18 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: the Rookie of the Year odds list Trevor Lawrence number one, 19 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: Mac Jones number two. Now, what does it mean to 20 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: have a better season. That's a good questions, not wins 21 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: in losses, but overall production. Who has the most touchdowns? 22 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: How about that? Well? Mac Jones could have a he 23 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: should have a better record, but he probably won't be 24 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: asked to do as much as Trevor Lawrence is going 25 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: to be asked to do. Trevor Lawrence could end up 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: with twenty eight touchdown passes and they win five games. 27 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: Mac Jones could throw for twenty five touchdowns and they 28 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 1: win ten or eleven games. Who had a better season? 29 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson is going to be asked to do an 30 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: awful lot with the Jets. How many wins are they 31 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: going to have? I think we can look at the 32 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: stats and think Matthew Stafford had a great year every year, 33 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: he'd always have big numbers. They didn't win, and when 34 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: you're losing, you're going to be throwing even more. Does 35 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: Justin Fields get a chance? When does he get a chance? 36 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: But I'm guessing Mac Jones has a chance to have 37 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: a better season because his team is better. Trevor Lawrence 38 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: is behind a spotty offensive line. You got a rookie 39 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: head coach and you're being asked to make some magic 40 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: here and you've already lost Travis at ten for the season. Yeah, mclub, 41 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: So I guess the question who wins Rookie of the Year. 42 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 1: Then if they're one and two and Zach Wilson probably 43 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: round third, I would imagine what if I give you 44 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 1: you can have Trevor Lawrence of the field for Rookie 45 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: of the Year. Does anybody want the field? Mclovin does, 46 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: Fritzie does, Okay, Seaton does, Pauly Ester don't running backs 47 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: usually have a good shot because a feature back like 48 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: a Sequan who's the nause Harris? Yeah? But the Steelers. 49 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: What if I gave you Mac Jones, Trevor Lawrence or 50 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: the field? Anybody interested in the field? Seaton's interested in 51 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: the field. Mclovin is interested in the field. Fritzie not 52 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: as mom riding with Trevor. If you throw Mack in there, 53 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: that's a different ballgame for me. Oh okay, I'll take 54 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: Trevor and Mac. Does anybody want a piece of that 55 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: pie of the face Rookie of the Year? Seaton does? So? 56 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: Seaton against the back row? Wait, I'm with Seaton? Yeah? 57 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: Anders with me? So left side versus right side? Yeah, 58 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: left side versus right side, okay, so right, my right 59 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: side and my left side, right right, okay. So it's 60 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: it's mclovin and Seaton versus Paulli and Fritzie. You guys 61 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: got the field. They have Mac Jones and Trevor Lawrence 62 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: for a pie, fair enough, don't I don't know if 63 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: Paul ever agreed to that. Definitely did. Yeah, I'll just 64 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: throw them. You'll throw the pines. Yeah, well, are you 65 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: gonna throw a pie? You're so? Are you involved in this? Okay? 66 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: So it's just Todd okay. Uh, And it'll be a 67 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: pie from each of these guys, and then if you win, Todd, 68 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: then you get two pies to hit these guys. Sounds good, 69 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: all right, Yes, lub, I'm looking at the lists of 70 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: rookies of the year, and there aren't a lot of 71 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: number one overalls like Kyler Murray one in nineteen Okay, 72 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: but the bed is already firmly cemented here, like you 73 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: can't wiggle out. No. My point is Trevor does not 74 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: have a great chance. No, I'm saying to Todd, who's 75 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: the most conservative guy that I've ever known, would try 76 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: to wiggle out of it. I've already agreed to it back. 77 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: By the way, Peacock original series Heart to Heart, where 78 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: host Kevin Hart sits down with today's biggest celebrities for 79 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: unfiltered conversations.

I think I 83 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: thought JUG's gun was to do like radar on the 84 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: on the pitch um. Anyway, that thing with the two 85 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 1: tires and spins and spits up football Yeah. Can we 86 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: find a way to fit a pie in there and 87 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 1: have that fire out? That sounds like good TV. Maybe 88 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: maybe it's like a gigantic cupcake or something that you 89 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: put it in there fires it off. That'd be fun. 90 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: What about those those guns that they shoot t shirts 91 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: into the crowd. Yeah, like a potato gun. Remember the 92 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: potato gun you can make? Can you press the button 93 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: in it? But but we get cupcakes, we stuffed full 94 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: of cupcakes. Great, I love it. This sounds like fun. Yeah. Point, 95 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: I want to tell Seaton he's right, the jugs gun 96 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: is also a football thrower. By the way, I typed 97 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: in Jugs and hit searchs and it was a whole 98 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: different thing. But the Jugs sports dot Com makes the 99 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: football thrower. They called the football throwing machine. Football throwing 100 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: machine by the Jugs people. Oh but Jugs makes those, 101 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,239 Speaker 1: that's great. And radar guns, yeah, they do it all. 102 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: When the Patriots and Dolphins face off in Week one, 103 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: two former Alabama quarterbacks to a tong of Ioloa and 104 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: Mac Jones will face off. Jalen Hurts who was in 105 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: the same quarterbacking room and Tuscaloosa starts in phillip Alpia. 106 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: That's surprising because you don't think of Alabama as quarterback 107 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: you but certainly during the Nick Saban era. But Saban 108 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: opened up the offense a couple of years ago when 109 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: he brought in Lane Kiffin. He knew, hey, I can 110 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: run the ball and have great defense. I got to 111 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: get caught up to speed with everybody else with offense. 112 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: And then those recruits showed up. As Lane Kiffin said, now, 113 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: it's not fair because it used to be you could 114 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: get a quarterback or a wide receiver, couldn't get a 115 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: running back or good defensive players if you were recruiting 116 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: against Nick. Now, Nick goes in and goes yea. Now 117 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: take that quarterback, take that wide receiver. Super Bowl winning quarterbacks, 118 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: Alabama's actually tied with oh Man. You wouldn't get this one, 119 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: Perdue for having the most super Bowl winning quarterbacks. Alabama's 120 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: got Joe Namath, Bart Starr, and Kenny Stabler. Perdue has three. 121 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: You're gonna get one. I don't know if you would 122 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: get the other two. Breeze went to Purdue, the other 123 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: two Purdue quarterbacks. In fact, we had a guest on 124 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: recently who talked about his dad going to Purdue. Bob 125 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: Greasy went there. Brian Greasy talked about that. Lenny Dawson 126 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: of the Kansas City Chiefs went to Purdue. This Pac 127 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: twelve school has the most super Bowl appearances. And here's 128 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: the hint. It's not USC. Paulie Stanford, No Cow, Jared Goff, 129 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Joe cap Craig Morton, Vince Ferragamo. How about 130 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: that one. Not exactly a quarterback you nowadays. But there 131 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: are as many Super Bowl starters in today's NFL from 132 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: Miami of Ohio as there are Michigan. Others come from 133 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: Eastern Illinois, Boston College, Texas Tech, Obama might be having 134 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: a run of starters, but you never know which college 135 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: the next great quarterback is going to come from. And 136 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: a little bit later on, we're going to have Mike 137 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: Renner on, who covers college football for Pro Football Focus, 138 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: and he said, you know, keep in mind, we didn't 139 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: know much about these quarterbacks last year at this time. 140 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson, Mac Jones, Joe Burrow the previous year, Dwayne 141 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: Haskins the previous year, Kyler Murray, we didn't know if 142 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: he would be able to play in the NFL. Mitchell 143 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: Trubisky back in twenty seventeen. There will be quarterbacks that 144 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: come out of nowhere, and we'll discuss this coming up 145 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: next hour. These are quarterbacks that you need to know 146 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 1: about now, and they'll probably quite a few of them 147 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: are going to be first round draft picks. Let me see, Oh, 148 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 1: I got a new interview here and it's with John Cena, 149 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: the great wrestler actor. This week's episode of that Scene. 150 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: I talked to John seen about this scene in train 151 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: Wreck where he's in the movie theater with Amy Schumer 152 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: and she instigates a fight. We also talk about his 153 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 1: various similarities to Mark Wahlberg. Here's a portion of the interview. 154 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: And you're both musicians, rappers. Yeah yeah, I mean we 155 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: and I hung out in my underwear and Suicide in 156 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: the Suicide Squad, so we're kind of like both underwear 157 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: models too. You know, well we were. I actually played 158 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: his adversary in Daddy's Home, and I think it was Honestly, 159 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: I think it was that moment in train Wreck, and 160 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg himself was like, Hey, we need to get 161 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: John for the button of Daddy's Home. We also talked 162 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 1: about the parallels between comedy and wrestling and how Connor 163 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: McGregor and Mark Wahlberg would do if they got into 164 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: the ring.

Let me say, you know, I 169 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 1: still I'm told yesterday that even though the Dolphins publicly 170 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: Brian Flores, their coach backed away from Deshaun Watson without 171 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: talking about Deshaun Watson. You know, this comes down to 172 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: the following. My source said, the offer is too high. 173 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: What the Texans want. That's all it is the price. 174 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: If when it comes down, then there's a chance. I 175 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: don't think that Deshaun Watson gets traded. I don't think 176 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: he plays this year. I think this is basically a 177 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: red shirt ear for him. Let's see how the legal 178 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: issue issues play out. If they disappear, now you can 179 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: get premium price for Deshaun Watson. I don't need to 180 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: trade him now. I'll pay him the ten million dollars. 181 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: I'll let him sit. He'll be a healthy scratch. That's 182 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: what I was told. Probably going to happen with Deshaun Watson, 183 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: your quarterback, one of the top five quarterbacks in the NFL, 184 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: will not be playing this year. That's my opinion. But 185 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: I do think there's no reason for the Texans to 186 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: be all of a sudden saying, hey, we got to 187 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: trade him, unless you think something bigger down the road 188 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 1: is going to happen. You know, could he be indicted, 189 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: Like we're not even gonna hear from him, probably until February. 190 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: With this case, what's the NFL do with him? Unless 191 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: you think, all right, the NFL is going to suspend 192 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: him for a year, and who knows if you know 193 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: he's going to face charges here, Like this isn't just 194 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: the NFL investigating. There's a whole lot more attached to this. 195 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: And I don't know if you can get dollar for 196 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: dollar with Deshaun Watson unless you feel like, hey, I'll 197 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: take quarters on the dollar, but I wouldn't do it. Yeah, boy, 198 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: how would it work if Deshaun Watson doesn't agree with 199 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: that plan and says I would like to play this 200 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: year because he's eligible to play as far as the 201 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: NFL's concerned as of right now, he's the best player 202 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: on the roster by far for them to healthy scratch him. 203 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: Would he have a case with the players union or 204 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: some type of grievance because he has not been charged 205 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: with a crime and he can't get that year back. 206 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: He gets the money, but he can't get the football 207 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: play back. Would he have a case? I don't know 208 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: if the Players Association can argue on his behalf that 209 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: you must play him, because you can't challenge if a 210 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: coach says, hey, I'm not going to play this guy. 211 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 1: I don't want to play this guy. Now you can 212 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: say there's Deshaun Watson, is you know right now he's 213 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: charged with you know he's been accused investigated, But can 214 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: you say these are football reasons why I'm not playing him? 215 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's tricky. NFL Players Association, from what I'm told, 216 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: is looking into urban Meyer's comments. Urban Meyer said the 217 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: quiet thing out loud. He did bring up the v 218 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: word vaccination, that that factored in. He said that everyone 219 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: was considered, that was part of the production. Also, was 220 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: he vaccinated or not? To say that that was a 221 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: decision maker is certainly under consideration. In other words, he 222 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: didn't play the pr game. He said, what the coaches 223 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: are actually factoring in? Are you vaccinated? And who is 224 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: that player who is or is not vaccinated? But the 225 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: players Association will look into this. And from what I 226 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: was told, player Association, Now, how do you prove that 227 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: that was the reason why somebody got cut because they 228 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: weren't vaccinated? Could it be part of the reason? Could 229 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: you get partially in trouble? Is that the only reason 230 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: why somebody got cut because they wouldn't get vaccinated. By 231 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: the way, in case you're wondering, Bill Belichick held a 232 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: press conference this morning, and here is how a reporter 233 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: asked the question on possibly keeping Cam Newton as Abacco 234 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: I was wondering, was it when it came to Cam, 235 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: was there a desire to have him to stay with 236 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: the team a backup role or was that never presented 237 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: as an option. Yeah, I'm not going to go through 238 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: all the different things that with any player on that, 239 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: so we'll just leave it the way it is and 240 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: you know, go from there. Was that a difficult decision 241 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: to make? Bill? Well, I mean I don't rank them. 242 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: You know, we make decisions and then we execute him 243 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: and go on and you know, take it from there. 244 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: So I wish somebody would write a book and it 245 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: would just be on Bill Belichick quotes. Just have the 246 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: question and the answer and of everything that he's ever 247 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: been asked in a press conference since he's been the 248 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: head coach, and then just put it out, you know, 249 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: inspiring thoughts from Bill Belichick. Yest hunt the reporter to 250 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: ask him to rank him. We didn't say, where was this? 251 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: Of all the people you've ever cut, where would you 252 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: put to Cam Newton? He just said, was it difficult? 253 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: And all we had to say again was yeah, it's 254 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: always difficult to cut some especially someone that's been accomplished 255 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: veteran in the league. But we move on this decision 256 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: we made. I don't know why I rank them. I 257 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: don't know if it was difficult though, But then say 258 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: that he's a guy, he's not shy about expressing himself. 259 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: Albert Breer, who works for the Monday Morning Quarterback, said 260 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: that when Belichick was asked if Cam Newton's vaccination status 261 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: played into his release, he replied no. Albert Brier then 262 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: follows up by saying, I believe him. Bottom line is 263 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick wasn't picking a starting quarterback based on that, 264 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: and Cam Newton was never sticking around as a backup. 265 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: It's simple. Mac Jones won the job. I was told 266 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: the same thing yesterday. Mac Jones beat out Cam Newton, 267 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: plain and simple. Part of the reason why he had 268 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: three days to his own where he ran the first 269 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: team offense. And I think that's when the coaching staff 270 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: couldn't deny what they were seeing because a lot of times, 271 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: when you see a rookie do well, you want to 272 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: say to yourself, let me hold off here. When you 273 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: see the veteran do it, then you know it's something 274 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: that he has done. There's consistency there, it's not a fluke. 275 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: I think they got to the point where they're looking 276 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: at Mac Jones going what are we? What are we 277 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: waiting for? Here's our quarterback? All right, take a break. 278 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: We'll talk to some college football. Next hour, one of 279 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: our favorite, Sean Casey from the Major League Baseball Network 280 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: will join us. I wonder what he makes of all 281 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: this Hobby Bayez stuff with the mats and the thumbs down, 282 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: and does this matter? And I can't imagine somebody booed 283 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: Sean Casey. Everybody loves Sean Casey. So we'll talk a 284 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: little baseball, the Dodgers and Giants, making it interesting they 285 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: play each other this weekend, and we'll talk to him 286 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: about that as well, coming up on eighteen after the 287 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: hour here on this Wednesday, our two Dan and the 288 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: Danas Dan Patrick show M Drive.

Yes? Yes. It's really an interesting statement though, 335 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,360 Speaker 1: on the maturity of the modern American man that if 336 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: you're saying like hey, guys, don't do this. Oh really? 337 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 1: Oh I can't do it? Oh okay, Now we're all 338 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: gonna come out and do it. Then, Like, how big 339 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 1: of a loser do you have to be to do that? 340 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: The immediate comparison is to a child in a chocolate chippoy. 341 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: That comes to mind. That's who's the Galleries man. Well, 342 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: really we're gonna do Okay, okay, fine, I don't go 343 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: do it.

Yes, Paul, if our show is 346 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: calling you immature, you must be really immature. Think about it. 347 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: Oh smooth. Segue to Sean Casey, the MLB Network handle 348 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: was three time NHL or nahle star. He's known as 349 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: the Mayor and nobody ever booed Sean Casey when he played? 350 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: Did they no? I got? When I got thrown off 351 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: from left I got booed? Whole Detroit was booming, sixty 352 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: thousand were like, all right, get out of here, boom. 353 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: So one time I really got booed bad. When you 354 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: got thrown out from left field at first base, you 355 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: got booed. I got booed so bad. I literally was 356 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: like running back. I was running back to the dugout 357 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: like oh showering of boods. I'm like, oh man, this 358 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: is unbelievable. I've never been hit with so many booze 359 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: in my life. Did you get booted? Like? Does booing 360 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: help or hurt? Well? You know what? You know what 361 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: I in nineteen ninety nine, I was having a really 362 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: good year. We were coming down the stretch. We were 363 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: going to the Astrodome to play the Astros and I 364 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: remember getting introduced and the place booed me. And I 365 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: remember Barry Larkins saying to me, hey, man, you finally 366 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: made it. If they're booing you, that means they knew 367 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: who you are. And I was like, all right, man, 368 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 1: this is a this is awesome. So what about the 369 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,239 Speaker 1: home fans. The home fans? Uh? You know what? I 370 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: think one thing with the home fans at the end 371 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 1: of the day, like people come to see you play 372 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: and they want to see you do well. So if 373 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: they boo you because they're not happy that maybe this 374 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: is the only game they're going through that year and 375 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: you're not doing well, I understand. I can understand. I 376 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: can understand. I've had that happen before. Like I've been 377 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: on a bad street with Cincinnati a couple of times 378 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: and was very popular. But I got booed a few times, 379 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,959 Speaker 1: and I understood it when I freaking grounded into another 380 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: double play. Okay, But what Hobby Bayez did and some 381 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: of his teammates like, give me the logic behind that, 382 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: and doing that to New York fans, Wow, I don't 383 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: know if there's a good logic as far as doing 384 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: it to New York fans. Um, you know, I think, 385 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 1: I think, I think it was probably not the smartest 386 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: of moves, just because New York's New York and like 387 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,400 Speaker 1: for me, I played in Boston, you know, in two 388 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: thousand and eight, So like Boston, New York, Philly that 389 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 1: they're you know, listen, they're great fans, They're passionate fans, 390 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: they care and New York. And I was talking to 391 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: Ford about to say other day, he's like New York 392 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: fans or something. Especially Mets fans were some of the 393 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 1: most knowledgeable fans out there. So you know, I don't know, 394 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: I know, I saw hobbies, you know, reaction, But as players, 395 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: you have to understand. Two, you get paid a lot 396 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: of money to go out there and perform, and when 397 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: you don't, you're gonna get booed. That's just the nature 398 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: of the beast. But when you respond with thumbs down, 399 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: like it's yeah, you can't do it, You just can't 400 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: do it. I don't know. Man, like you, you've got 401 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 1: to be able to look at yourself in the mirror 402 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: two like and say, you know what, I'm not really 403 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 1: playing that well in these last few games, and we 404 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 1: are ten games under five hundred or whatever it was 405 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: in our last forty and you know, we're not given 406 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: the fans what they want. We are underachieving. Like, so 407 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: you can't boo back to the fans when you're not 408 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: getting it done. It beats different if it was different circumstances. 409 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: But the bottom line is the Mets are underachieving right 410 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: now and the fans are booing. I don't think it's 411 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,239 Speaker 1: okay to boo back to the fans because it just 412 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: sends a bad message. Well, it's you know what came first, 413 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: the chicken or the egg. You know, your bad play 414 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: came before the booing started. If you play well, then 415 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: they're not going to be booing you. I just never understood. 416 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: And I remember Tino Martinez told me that he went 417 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: from the Yankees to the Cardinals, and he said, you know, 418 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: I would get booed at Yankee Stadium if I wasn't 419 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 1: playing well. I went to Saint Louis and they were like, hey, 420 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: you'll get him next time. And and Tino said, I 421 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 1: wanted them to yell at me. I wanted them to 422 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: boom me like I needed that. I expected that, not like, hey, 423 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: that's okay, you're oh for ten, we'll get him next time, Tino, 424 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: come on, don't worry about it. You're gonna be okay. Well, 425 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: Saint Louis is the one place I remember you. You 426 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: make a diving play on the visiting team. You come 427 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: up and they're cheering for you. You're like, man, where 428 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: are we? Hey? Cheer for everybody, and I can see like, 429 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: you're right, Tino Martinez, Hey you all right man, you're 430 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: oh for your last twenty seven. You'll be better tomorrow. 431 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: In New York, they're like, get out of pound, you suck, 432 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: You're out of here. Could you have played in New York? Yeah? 433 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: I think I could have definitely played in New York. Yeah, 434 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: I could have definitely played in New York, especially later 435 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: in my career when you start, when you start to 436 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: understand what it takes to play in places like that. 437 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: You know, my last year, Danny was in Boston, so 438 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: and I ended up hitting well. So I always say 439 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: what was They always say what was your experience like 440 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 1: in Boston? I said, it was unbelievable. You know, I 441 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: ended up hitting over three hundred and I never got 442 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: boot So it was a great thing, great experience. What 443 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: kind of ball player would you be because you were 444 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: an average you hit for average, not an average hit 445 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: or you hit for average. Is there a place in 446 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 1: baseball for you today? Oh? Man? I think I think 447 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: I'm I think a hit her like myself would be 448 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: more appreciated in today's game, just because you know, I 449 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: didn't strike you know, I didn't strike out a hundred 450 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: times like I was gonna. I was a three seventy 451 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: on base you know, I was. I was, I was. 452 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 1: I was still gonna. I was still gonna hit your doubles. 453 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 1: I was gonna hit you some home runs. I was 454 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: gonna drive in runs. So like a guy like me, 455 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 1: I think would have been a would have there's they 456 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: need more guys like me that we're good hitters in 457 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: the game today because the three true outcomes and just 458 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 1: the strikeouts. How it's just okay to strike out two 459 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: hundred times nowadays. I just don't. I don't think that's 460 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: the greatest product. And I also think, Danny, if you 461 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: go and look at the at the at the teams 462 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: that have won it in the last few years, you know, 463 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: these teams do have good hitters down, up and down 464 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: their lineups. There are tough outs in those lineups. So yeah, 465 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: I think I would do well in today's game. He 466 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: Sean Casey works for the Major League Baseball Network. Three 467 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 1: time National League All Star. Do you think back in 468 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: the day, and you were probably in the throws of 469 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: the steroid era in the late nineties, Like, do you 470 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: have to make a conscious decision to say I'm not 471 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: going to use steroids? I think so, yeah, you know, 472 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: it's funny, man, And I mean this sincerely, like I 473 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: never did steroids and I didn't even know all the 474 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: guys are doing it. I just I mean, the lifting 475 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: was huge, end guys were huge, and I really think 476 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: the guys that were doing it knew knew they all 477 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: knew they were like a little club. So did I 478 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 1: expect some guys, like a couple of guys that I 479 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: that would come to spring training like with thirty pounds 480 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: of muscle and I'm in the offseason with a personal trainer, 481 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: like just getting after it four or five days a week, 482 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: doing everything I can. I put on three pounds of muscle, 483 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,479 Speaker 1: and I come into spring training and like, what the 484 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: hell is this normal? You put on three pounds of 485 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 1: muscle And I'm like, bro, how'd you put on thirty 486 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: five pounds of muscle in four months? He's like, oh, man, 487 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 1: I just I was training hard and had a personal 488 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,959 Speaker 1: train I was like, so did I. I was like, 489 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 1: you put on thirty two more pounds of muscle than 490 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 1: I did. You gotta be kidding me. So, you know, 491 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: playing in that playing during that time, I think it 492 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: was a conscious choice not to do it, But looking back, 493 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: I don't. I think for a lot of those years, 494 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: I didn't realize how many guys were doing it because 495 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: there's the pressure. It's not when you get to the majors, 496 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: but in the minor leagues. And you know, two guys 497 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 1: I know who were former minor leaguers said if you 498 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: don't want to do it, but then you see that 499 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: somebody is doing it and they're going to get a 500 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: better chance of getting called up. So it's that peer 501 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: pressure and the money is so different when you get 502 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: called up that you really have to have that, you know, uh, 503 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: the good angel on your shoulder and the devil on 504 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: your other shoulder. And you're like, who am I listening 505 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 1: to here? Yeah? Yeah, I think the pressure, You're right, 506 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: the pressure the money nowadays, when you start to feel that, okay, 507 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: the playing field's not fair, you know. I mean, their 508 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: guys are making it, you know that are doing steroids. 509 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: They're the ones making all the money. And here I 510 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: am in the minors. I'm not gonna make it. And 511 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: what am I gonna do? Get a pat on the 512 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: back and say I didn't do it? So I think 513 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: there was a real dilemma there for guys, and a 514 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: lot of guys that did do it and didn't do 515 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: it and understandably so handicapped the National League. Wess you 516 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: like the giants of the Dodgers here down the shop, man, man, 517 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: I tell you what. I just think that I the 518 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: Giants have been so awesome, what a story, you know? 519 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 1: And I think they're really I think they're a really, 520 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: really good team. I mean, I just feel like the 521 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: Dodgers are coming. You know, they've been making that run. 522 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: They're a half game back now, pushing hard. Uh you know, 523 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: adding a Shuzern Turner and those guys you know at 524 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: the at the deadline, I think has been huge. I 525 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: think that I think the Dodgers overtake the Giants in September. 526 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: What do you think about the usage of showhy Outani 527 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: doing double double duty here? I love it. I love it. 528 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: I think I think we're seeing who show hey um 529 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: really is. Because when when Madden was like what do 530 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: you want to do? I think what a spring train is, 531 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: like what do you want to do? He's like, listen, 532 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: I want to hit and I want to pitch. I 533 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 1: don't want to go back to taking two days off. 534 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: And you know with kid gloves, I think they took 535 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: the kid gloves off and they say, the reason you're 536 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: here is because you're a once in a generational player. No, 537 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: you're a once in a lifetime player. We've never seen 538 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: a guy like you, like don't do it, and so 539 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: I think the fact that he's doing it, he's built 540 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: to do what he's doing, and I think that's why 541 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: it's been such an unbelievable thing to see show Hey, 542 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: you know, doing what he's doing on both sides of 543 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: the ball. Well, I like the story, but I wonder 544 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: about long term, can he continue to do it? Does 545 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: it take away from I can't imagine. And I saw 546 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: this at Yankee Stadium a couple of months ago, where 547 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: he's got to face the Yankees and they's got a 548 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: lead off. You know, pitchers spend five days preparing for 549 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: a start, and he's playing every single day, and just 550 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: that mental fatigue that you have. It's such a long season, 551 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: and that's what I wonder. Is it counter productive? Will 552 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: it be counterproductive? And at some point no, But I 553 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: think he's the biggest thing with a big league If 554 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: you talk to anybody, it's your routine, Hey, man, what's 555 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: your routine when you come to the big leagues? Hey, 556 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: get a good routine? Well, Show Hey, since he's obviously 557 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: been a teenager in Japan, has got this routine where 558 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: he could start every fifth day but also hit every day. 559 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: I think his routine is just different than what we 560 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: know in the States. That's why we've never seen anything 561 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: like it. So I think he's going to be able 562 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 1: to do it. I really do. I think he's got 563 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: his body condition and Danny. If he doesn't, then he 564 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: picks one of them and he'd be still one of 565 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: the best players in baseball on one side of the ball. 566 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: But to watch him do this as long as we 567 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: can man as fans, we gotta keep really enjoying it 568 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: and saying we've never standing like this. How many Hall 569 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: of Famers did you take deep? I think I took 570 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: a few deep. Uh, I don't know. Do you have 571 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:25,479 Speaker 1: the numbers? I don't know. Maybe like, how about how 572 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: about fifteen? Can give me the one though that you 573 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: like you took deep and you're like that that picture 574 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: might be a little I took, I took, I took um. 575 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: Let me see what one pops in the night. I 576 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: took Glavin deep a few times. Um I took. I 577 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: hit really well against Maddox. Uh Smoltz was pretty nasty. Uh. 578 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: Let me see Randy Johnson. I never took deep, but 579 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: I hit him pretty well. Let me see what other 580 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: big Roy Holliday man. Maybe I didn't go deep, and 581 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: that's enough. I know I hit a lot of them well. 582 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: But maybe not. I know, I got Glavin a few times. 583 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: Why am I drawing blanks on Hall of Famers and 584 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:07,719 Speaker 1: I played against? But so maybe two? You went from 585 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: fifteen to ten to two. I was like, man, maybe 586 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: I'm starting to ratting the Hall of Famers I played against. 587 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: Maybe it's not so many. Okay, no one, There's gotta 588 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,239 Speaker 1: be one more out there somewhere. Okay. You walk up 589 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: to the plate for the first time against Randy Johnson, Yeah, 590 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: what are you thinking? I seriously was like, God, is 591 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: this scary? Like seriously, why I walk out there my 592 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: first time facing I'll never forget. I was in Cincinnati. 593 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: He's with Arizona. I walk out. He's just got the 594 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: long mullet, you know, just you know, six eleven. You know, 595 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: it's so scary. And I get up there and I 596 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: remember thinking myself, oh my god, that's Randy Johnson. I 597 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: got his baseball card. It is unbelievable. Next, you know, 598 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: I was like, wham, one hundred outside corner. I'm like 599 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: Jesus had some way. I'm one hundred outside corner and 600 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: then ninety three mile hour slider, ninety three side and 601 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, I'm in for a dogfight. Here's a 602 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like this my entire life. Right, 603 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: So I'm like, Danny, I start battling because you know, 604 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: I didn't strike out a lot. So I get to 605 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: two two, I'm like, I'm not punching out two two. Foul, foul, foul. 606 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: So on this on like the seventh pitch, Randy Johnson 607 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: walks up, he gets like ten feet from the from 608 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: the freaking from the plate. He snatches the bar and 609 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: looks at me like, oh my god. I was like, 610 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: I just want to get the hell out of here. 611 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: I was like, so the next pitch I grounded out 612 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: and I was running the first I was like, that's 613 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: the greatest ground out of my life. I just wanted 614 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: to be done with as about. It's always great to 615 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: talk to you, man. I hope you're well all right, Danny, 616 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: great seedy man. Thanks for trapping me on at Sean Casey. 617 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,719 Speaker 1: Now you know why he was called the Mayor, the 618 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: fact that Randy Johnson's like ten feet away going Major 619 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: League Baseball Network analysts, three time National League gold Star. 620 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: You can watch Sean across MLB Networks programming, plus check 621 00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: out his new podcast, The Mayor's office, Paul and Iowa 622 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: joins us on the program. Hi, Paul, what do you have? Hey? Dan? 623 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: First up, you know, I'm twenty six years young and 624 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: I'd like to announce my continuing football career at Bishop Sycamore. Yeah. 625 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: You may be on the younger side though, but thank you, Paul. Yeah, 626 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: five eleven, one seventy five. I hear they need a kicker, 627 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: but really, my call today is I want to ask 628 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: you about this hobby via situation and where does this 629 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 1: fit into the unwritten rules of Major League Baseball? Does 630 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: this kind of equate too? When Randy Moss gave him moon? 631 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: Thank you, Paul, I had no problem with I mean, 632 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: Randy Moss didn't pull down, he pulled down his pants 633 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: or give the you know, the impression he was pulling 634 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: down his pants. Joe Buck made it worse than what 635 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: it was, because if you just hear the call, you're like, 636 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: oh my god, what did Randy Moss do? I don't 637 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: know if it sound like he actually pulled his pants down? Hey, 638 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: Joe Buck made it sound like he did truly moon you? 639 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: But yeah, the unwritten rules. These are New York fans. 640 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: You love the passion, but then you can't go. Oh man, 641 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 1: you got too much passion. You guys cared too much. 642 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: He came from Chicago, where you're probably not getting booed, 643 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: and you won a World series. There. By the way, 644 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: we did reach out to coaching staff at Bishop Sycamore, 645 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: the fictitious high school, and they were not available. We 646 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: were told by somebody that we had to pay, like 647 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 1: what kind of compensation could we give to one of 648 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: the coaches who would be joining us? Fritzie, you had 649 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: the interaction there with them, I did, and there was 650 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: a message back to me basically saying, you know what 651 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: type of compensations involved? Because while they're going through all 652 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 1: this darrests and stress and everything, I guess maybe they 653 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: would feel better if they were getting some kind of 654 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: money for coming on this. Okay, but but how we 655 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 1: don't pay guests? Did you not do? I like fifty 656 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 1: dollars one hundred? Like how much is enough? Like? How 657 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,240 Speaker 1: much is it for a high school coach? A fair question, 658 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: by the way, the high school coach just got fired, 659 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: didn't he at Bishop Sycamore. Yeah, so you probably got 660 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 1: to up it a little bit to make up for that. 661 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: Maybe it's closer to one hundred dollars for a footman. 662 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,879 Speaker 1: My question. When mclevan sent this to me yesterday, he goes, yeah, 663 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 1: and the head coach of Bishop Sycamore got fired. And 664 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: I go by, who, like, do they have any adults 665 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: who are affiliated with the program? They're a GM or 666 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: the team that's I didn't know. I wasn't sure who 667 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,280 Speaker 1: this was that that would fire the coach. Yes, McLean, 668 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: I was afraid to say this yesterday, but I think 669 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: we should have paid for the guy shipping. Aren't you 670 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: dying to know what he would say? You know, when 671 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,919 Speaker 1: Fritzie said, hey, I'm going to reach out, and I said, yeah, 672 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: I'd be interested to hear from this coach of how 673 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: he's pulled this fraud off and got on ESPN to play. 674 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: You know, one of the better schools in the country, 675 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: and he's got kids who aren't even in high school. 676 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: They don't even actually have a school. Yeah, and if 677 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: we were journalistically unethical, I willing to actually pay for one. 678 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: We spore to come out. We don't even know what 679 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: to send the check to, or some box that doesn't 680 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: exist online. Send it, tell them we're gonna send it 681 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: to the high school. The high school Yeah, we'll send 682 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: it to the high school. I'm gonna drop it off 683 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: at the high school. Next time I'm in Columbus, I'll 684 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: drop it off at the high school. All right, let 685 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: me take a break. More phone calls coming up.

I'm keeping 702 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: an eye on what's going on with the seventy Sixers 703 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: with Ben Simmons. Ben Simmons has publicly talked about not 704 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: going back to Philadelphia, doesn't want to go to camp. 705 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 1: And here's the thing, you know, the seventy sixers having 706 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: themselves to blame for this, because if I go back 707 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: to that lost to the Atlanta Hawks when Ben Simmons 708 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: famously passed up a dunk when Trey Young, who is 709 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: niner ten inches smaller than him, and he didn't want 710 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: to go up for the dunk, didn't want to get foul, 711 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: and he passed it off. And then after the game, 712 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 1: Joe l Embiid talked about that was the turning point 713 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: of the game when our guy didn't want to go 714 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: for the dunk, was worried he was going to get found. 715 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,040 Speaker 1: And then Doc Rivers was asked, can you win a 716 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: championship with Ben Simmons as your point guard? He goes, 717 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, if you're Ben Simmons, you have 718 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: doubts already about your game. And now I got Joel 719 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: MBD in my head. Coach Doc Rivers, who have doubts 720 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: about me as well. Of course he doesn't want to 721 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 1: go back there, and you know that the fans are 722 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: going to be holding their breath every time he has 723 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: to go to the line. But I don't know if 724 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 1: he's harder to trade now because he doesn't want to 725 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 1: go back to Philadelphia. I still think Golden State would 726 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: be intriguing. But then I also heard this Philadelphia would 727 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 1: probably want Draymond Green and Clay Thompson if they don't 728 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:46,760 Speaker 1: get Damian Lillard. So you're thinking, Okay, what's Golden State? 729 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 1: What's their thought process? I can get rid of Draymond 730 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: Green at his age and Clay Thompson coming off a 731 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: couple of surgeries, even though he's a wonderful shooter. That 732 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 1: gives them that Damian Lillard kind of shoot on the perimeter. 733 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: And then I bring in Ben Simmons, We get younger. 734 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: I still have Steph Curry. We got a lot of 735 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: younger players here. I'm thinking, all right, is that sort 736 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: of the game plan here? But I think that everybody 737 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: is waiting for the seventy six ers to lower their 738 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: trade demands. The same thing as Houston. NFL teams interested 739 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: in Deshaun Watson might not be interested in him right now, 740 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: just because they're asking too much in return. Yeah, Paul, 741 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 1: do you think that Ben Simmons and his people think 742 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: everything is fine and he's a great NBA player and 743 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,280 Speaker 1: he's there's no everything's going smoothly, that's what it feels 744 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: like from the outside, and they think this is just 745 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: working out great. He scores, you know, he scores a little, 746 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: he rebounds, sis all purpose player. Well, I hope that 747 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: he doesn't have a lot of sycophants, you know, yes, 748 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: men there, that you have people giving him some some 749 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 1: true criticism just to say, hey, you gotta we have 750 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: to work on this. This is on you. And that's 751 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 1: why I thought he should have played for the Olympic 752 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 1: team for Australia. Play with people, you know, build up 753 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: your confidence and then kind of build off of that, 754 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 1: because it doesn't just magically happen where he's gonna all 755 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: of a sudden go oh hey, I can make my 756 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 1: free throws and oh I can make it a three pointer. 757 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 1: His form is not bad. His confidence is what's bad. 758 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,799 Speaker 1: And he's got to work on his confidence level. Well, 759 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 1: the only way you do that is being successful, not 760 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,840 Speaker 1: in a pickup game, not in some video that somebody 761 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: shoots of you shooting threes with nobody on you and 762 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: nothing at stake. It's only going to happen when you 763 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: do it in a game. Yeah. See, you get the 764 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 1: sense that Ben Simmons needs, like Lebron or somebody like 765 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: that to step in and be like, no, I want 766 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,479 Speaker 1: him on my team. I need Ben on my team. 767 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 1: That's kind of his only real hope. Could you imagine 768 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 1: if Kobe took him under his wing, he would Kobe 769 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: would have been like, right in his face. It would 770 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: have been tough love. And I don't know if Lebron 771 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 1: would give tough love there, but I think that's what 772 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: Ben Simmons needs because he has this opportunity to do 773 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: something to be great. I mean, he's an All Star, 774 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: defensive Player of the Year, he's a really good passer, rebounder. 775 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 1: It's just he doesn't have confidence when it comes to shooting. Yeah, mccleman. Yeah. 776 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: There was also this report that Stephen A came out 777 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: this summer and said he doesn't work and he's constantly babied, 778 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: which brings true. I mean, he seems like his guys 779 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: who tell them things are okay. Yes, Philly wants him out. 780 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: I mean there is a fan alive who wants him back. No, 781 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,360 Speaker 1: but you know, Daryl Morey and Doc Rivers are the 782 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: two people I care about what their opinions are. But 783 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,760 Speaker 1: it feels like when Doc said when he was asked, 784 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,439 Speaker 1: can you win a championship with Ben Simmons, And he said, 785 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: and I'm paraphrasing, I don't know. I mean that tells 786 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 1: you everything right there, like you back your player. I 787 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: mean you say, of course I do. But he didn't. 788 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: It was like it was a moment of truth there 789 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,439 Speaker 1: from Doc Rivers and if I'm Ben Simmons, I don't 790 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: want to go back. But he has to understand why 791 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: they don't want him back. That's the key or he's 792 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: going to continue to be this kind of player. I 793 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 1: still think going to a team that is not going 794 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: to be qualifying for a playoff spot is really important 795 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 1: for him. He needs to kind of disappear to reappear. Yeah, mcclub, 796 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: But it sounds like he doesn't want to do that. 797 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 1: It sounds like he wants to go to a big bend, 798 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 1: that is, go to a big mature. He wants to 799 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 1: go to Los Angeles. He wants to go to California. 800 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: Now Sacramentos in California, but I'm guessing he wants to 801 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 1: go to Golden State. I don't know how you squeeze 802 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 1: him in with the Lakers with that salary. How do 803 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 1: you squeeze him in? What's your sign in trade or 804 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 1: whatever it might be. Yeah, mcclub fill in for Kawai 805 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: and Clippers now they're stuck with Kwai. I mean, while 806 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 1: Kawai's out next year, maybe Simmons could do a lot 807 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 1: of that production. I don't know how they pay him too. 808 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: Who knows about the salary cap? Like the Lakers squeezed 809 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: in ra Gen Rondo. I'm going yeah, okay, all right, 810 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:13,879 Speaker 1: salary Kim all right? Final hour coming up.
