The Las Vegas Raiders 28 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: are going to be a bad football team this year. 29 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: That's what I've come up with. Now, I love Antonio Peers, 30 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: Max Crosby is one of the best in the game. 31 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 2: There's things to like there. I love Gardnerman, like, there's 32 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 2: things to like about the Raiders. You know, the stadium, 33 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: the venue, the setup, the aura, the atmosphere, like, there's 34 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: a ton to like there. I know a lot of 35 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: Raiders fans, I know Raiders season ticket holders, like there 36 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 2: is a lot to like about the Raiders. Unfortunately, it's 37 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: not the team that'll be taking the field this year. 38 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: That's the problem. And I've come to that conclusion because 39 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: somebody who's a key part of all of it has 40 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: made it really obvious and really apparent that it's just 41 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: not really the place for them. And that's somebody is 42 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 2: DeVante Adams. So if you've been paying attention recently, DeVante 43 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: Adams has been kind of making the rounds. He was 44 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: on with k Adams and talking about, you know, the 45 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 2: Chargers social media team and them taking shots at him 46 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: during the schedule release and all that, like whatever I 47 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: give me, who cares? Basically, Deavante Adams said what everybody 48 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 2: else knows. It's usually a nerd running these social media sites, 49 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 2: and they have the authority or ability to speak on 50 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 2: behalf of the organization via social media, but it's not 51 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 2: really the team, and it's not really anybody that makes 52 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: real decisions. It's so like it is what it is. 53 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: I know somebody who ran a social media account for 54 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 2: a celebrity and the perception of what the account was 55 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 2: and the person who was running it behind the scenes. 56 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 2: In fact, he couldn't stand the guy he worked for, 57 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: but he did it because it was a decent paycheck. 58 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: And he said, whatever, I don't care is what it is. 59 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 2: But the point is you've got DeVante Adams talking about 60 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 2: the Chargers social media team. He went on to talk 61 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: about how well, you know, he's more of a believer 62 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: in Aidan O'Connell being the quarterback this year over Gardner Minshew, 63 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: that's fine, the betting odds would say Gardner Minshew's going 64 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: to be the favorite Week one whatever. And then he's 65 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 2: also talked about how well, you know, Aaron Rodgers has 66 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 2: been in my ear a little bit. You know, he's 67 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 2: been talking to me a little bit, but he knows 68 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: that I'm a Las Vegas Raider, so ha ha. He 69 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: just kind of, you know, joking about it. And then 70 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers was asked about it recently and said, you know, 71 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: can't wait to play with Deavante Adams again. And then 72 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: you've got Jets players like Breesehall talking about welcoming Davante 73 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 2: Adams to the Jets, and it just feels like there's 74 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 2: a lot of noise there. On top of all that, 75 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 2: you had the Netflix show come out Receiver, and what 76 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 2: was featured in there is Davante Adams basically ripping Jimmy 77 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: Garoppolo for a poor throw, admitting that he was part 78 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 2: of the reason he liked Jimmy Garoppolo as a person, 79 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 2: but he was part of the reason why Jimmy Garoppolo 80 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 2: was bench last year. Otherwise he was gonna have to like, 81 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 2: there's just a lot of noise, and you could say, well, yeah, 82 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: but all that was last year. It's a brand new year, 83 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 2: all right, it's a brand new time. All of that 84 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 2: was last year. But how come all of this stuff 85 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 2: is starting to come out like right now, like Davonte 86 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 2: Adams talking about Aaron Rodgers getting in his ear, Jets 87 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 2: players outside of Aaron Rodgers talking about welcoming in Davante Adams, Like, 88 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 2: there's a lot of noise there. You mean to tell 89 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: me that Rogers and guys on the Jets all of 90 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: it is just them speaking out loud, Like Rogers has 91 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 2: never had a conversation with Devonte Adams. You don't think 92 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,559 Speaker 2: guys around the league actually talk to each other about 93 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 2: this being a real possibility or this being something that 94 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: somebody could want. I look at it and I say, 95 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 2: I think that's DeVante Adams having honest conversations and letting 96 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: people in the Jets, or letting Aaron Rodgers, who let 97 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 2: other people in the Jets know, Hey, man, if there's 98 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 2: an opportunity, come get me the hell out of here, 99 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: because I think DeVante Adams is looking around going there's 100 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 2: a lot of wide receivers making a lot of money. 101 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 2: I've got another chance here to make a big fat 102 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: contract extension and make a big fat pay raise, which 103 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 2: I'm deserved of because he's one of the best receivers 104 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 2: in football. There's an opportunity for me to get paid 105 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 2: again in my career seeing what some of these numbers 106 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,799 Speaker 2: are that have been thrown out, Guys like Justin Jefferson 107 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 2: getting thirty five million a year, and he probably looks 108 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 2: at it and says, I can't do it here. It's 109 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: not happening. The future doesn't look bright here. Somebody's got 110 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 2: to come get me. And if you've got one of 111 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 2: your best players who is letting all of this noise 112 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 2: go on around him, you don't think Davante Adams could 113 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 2: call Aaron Rodgers and be like, hey man, just stop, dude, 114 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 2: you're making it more difficult for me. Stop doing it, Like, 115 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: tell them to stop. I just want to focus on 116 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 2: the season. I'm a ray. Let's focus on that forget 117 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 2: about all that. You don't think he couldn't go and 118 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:08,239 Speaker 2: call Aaron Rodgers and have all of this stopped. Rogers 119 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 2: isn't gonna shoot it. Rogers doesn't like talking to anybody. 120 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: We don't know really who his friends are. We don't 121 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 2: know who, Like, there's a lot of stuff about Rogers. 122 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 4: We don't know. 123 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: We still don't have confirmation as to whether or not 124 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: the guy was in Egypt smoking weed while riding a camel. 125 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:29,559 Speaker 2: We have no idea. Nobody knows, but for some reason, 126 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: he's willing to let it be known. Yeah, I can't 127 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: wait to play with DeVante Adams again. I think DeVante 128 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 2: Adams is looking around the room going, We're not going 129 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 2: to be good and I'm getting older, and I'm not 130 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 2: gonna sit here and waste prime years with an opportunity 131 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 2: at another payday, trying to play for an organization they 132 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: can't figure it out, and trying to play for an 133 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: organization that was completely different than the one I thought 134 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: I was joining a couple of years ago. The reason 135 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: why he left Green Bay to go to Las Vegas, 136 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 2: and unfortunately, none of the reasons that he left green 137 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 2: Bay to joined Vegas for are there anymore. I think 138 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 2: they're in trouble. Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio. Give 139 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 2: me on Twitter, at the Jonas Knox at the Jonas 140 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: Knox on Twitter by the way, or x whatever you 141 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 2: want to call it. Who cares doesn't matter. I speaking 142 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: of who cares? So I saw this Jalen Brunson deal 143 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 2: with the Knicks where he agreed to a contract extension 144 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: and he did it like a year early because he 145 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 2: wanted to help the organization stay under the second apron 146 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 2: of the salary cap. And he took like one hundred 147 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 2: and thirteen million dollars less than he would have been 148 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: due for next year. And he's a great player. And 149 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 2: I'm seeing all this stuff and I'm like, okay, And 150 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 2: there's some people that are being critical of it. Is 151 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 2: he making a mistake? You know? Can you really like 152 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 2: he wants to keep the Knicks competitive if he sees 153 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: them as a championship contender, and he figures this is 154 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 2: going to give him more flexibility to be able to 155 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 2: add pieces. And you're seeing everybody talk about all, well, 156 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: he saw what the Chiefs have done with Patrick Mahomes 157 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: and he's like, okay. So I'm hearing all the reasoning 158 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: and all the critique and everything else, and I look 159 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 2: at it and I go, it's his money. Who cares? 160 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 2: Like if he wants to take one hundred million dollars 161 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 2: less to try and help the Knicks win a title, 162 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 2: so be it. There's no guarantees they're going to win 163 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 2: a title. In fact, the odds would say they're not 164 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 2: going to. But if he wants to do it, that's fine. 165 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 2: But for some reason, people get fixated on how other 166 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 2: people agree to deals. I remember when Richard Sherman signed 167 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 2: a deal years ago and he negotiated it as his 168 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 2: own agent, and you had people criticizing the contract. He 169 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 2: could have gotten this much more, he could have gotten 170 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 2: that much more, he could have done this, he could 171 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: have done that. And it's like, well, yeah, but that 172 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 2: that's his deal. He did it. That that's the contract 173 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 2: he wanted. Lamar Jackson, Well, if he would have had 174 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 2: an agent, there wouldn't have been an it like, okay, 175 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 2: well he doesn't have an agent. This is the way 176 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 2: he wants to handle his business affairs. That's how he 177 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: handles it. Roquan Smith, like all of these guys that 178 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 2: are negotiating deals that are best for them or on 179 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 2: behalf of themselves. So what that's like. There's a lot 180 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: of things I don't understand. I personally can't justify me personally. 181 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 2: I don't understand anybody that spends two hundred dollars on 182 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 2: a pair of shoes, honest to God, Like I know listen. 183 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: I've never owned a pair of Jordan's in my life ever, 184 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 2: not one time. I have no idea what it's like 185 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 2: to shell out two hundred dollars for a pair of shoes. 186 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 2: I don't. I do know what it's like to shell 187 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 2: out forty five dollars for a pair of Pumas at 188 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 2: the outlets. I do know that I know what that's about. 189 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: I know what it's like to spend about fifty to 190 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: sixty percent less than what a normal pair of New 191 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: Balance is because it's on the sales and so the 192 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 2: color's ugly and it doesn't match anything. But who cares 193 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 2: save sixty bucks. They're comfortable, that's fine. I can't justify 194 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 2: spending two hundred dollars on a pair of sneakers, but 195 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 2: I don't sit there and critique people who do. There's 196 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 2: some people that are sneaker heads, Good for you. There's 197 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 2: some people that spend a lot of money on cars. 198 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 2: If you've seen what I drive, I don't. My truck's 199 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 2: almost twenty years old, and trust me, it's not like 200 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 2: a vintage twenty year old that I'm trying to keep up. No, 201 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 2: it's just I don't want to bake payments. That's the truth. 202 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 2: But it's like you could go through a list of 203 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: things that are worth something to you and not worth 204 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 2: something to somebody else, and vice versa. But I don't 205 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 2: sit here and dwell on the idea that, well, you 206 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 2: could have done this and you could have done that 207 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 2: with your money. I'm not a financial advisor. I don't care. 208 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 2: You want to spend two hundred dollars on a wagoo 209 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: or whatever they call it, steak at a nice steakhouse, 210 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 2: go for it. Do what you gotta do. You want 211 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 2: to get fit, like what? But the idea that people 212 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: get obsessed or fixated on, well, you could have gotten 213 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 2: this much more, Okay, and maybe he will eventually. I 214 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: don't know. He gave up one hundred million dollars to 215 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: try and help the Knicks, like they would say, Okay, 216 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 2: maybe they're gonna win a title. Maybe they won't. 217 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 5: I don't know. 218 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: Maybe he's happy there. If somebody takes less money to 219 00:12:55,520 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: stay at a place like is what it is. I've 220 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 2: had opportunities to go elsewhere. Don't want to leave. I 221 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 2: like Fox. I don't want to leave I like this place. 222 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 2: Maybe there was opportunities for more money elsewhere. I don't know. 223 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 2: I can tell you this. When I first got into radio, 224 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 2: the job I had previous to that paid a lot 225 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 2: more than radio. Zero regrets about it at all, every 226 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 2: one time, because I was happy. If that guy is 227 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 2: happy doing what he's doing, who gives a rip. But 228 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 2: you got a lot of people watching a lot of 229 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 2: other people's wallets out here, when you could go through 230 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 2: and find something wrong with what you spend your money onto. 231 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 2: So good for Jalen Bronson. Are the Knicks gonna win 232 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 2: the NBA title? Are they gonna win a championship and 233 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 2: bring one back to Madison Square Garden? Absolutely not. But 234 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: it's a good story and good for the New York Knicks, 235 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 2: and he's a great player.

You took those clips 263 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,359 Speaker 3: totally out of context. 264 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, Well, after this promo, I'm gonna take you 265 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 6: out and beat you. 266 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 2: Let me put this into context.

You were going to hear 272 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 2: somebody in the world of football who gets it. They 273 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 2: understand what the situation is. They understand what the deal is, 274 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 2: and you'll hear from them coming up here about ten 275 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 2: minutes from now here on FSR. So I was thinking 276 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 2: about this because I feel like sometimes it's guilt by association, 277 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 2: where you just because you're in the vicinity of something, 278 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 2: you too are sort of lumped into that. Like I 279 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 2: don't know if you've ever been out and you've been 280 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 2: with someboddies or been out with some friends and one 281 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: of them is just being a bit of an a hole, 282 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 2: you know, like they're just causing problems. But because you're 283 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 2: lumped in the group, things escalate and now you've also 284 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 2: got to deal with the issues, and you've got to 285 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: deal with the problems just because of one person, Like 286 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 2: one person kind of spoils the whole thing. They kind 287 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: of spoil it for everybody, and I was kind of 288 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 2: thinking about that when looking at this situation involving Bronnie James. 289 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 2: Now I know what you're saying. You've probably got Bronnie 290 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: James fatigue. Yeah, is what it is. Man, What do 291 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 2: you want me to do argue about the WNBA Rookie 292 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: of the Year award? I couldn't care less and neither 293 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 2: do you. But let's go ahead and let's have an 294 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 2: honest conversation about Bronnie James. Because he has struggled in 295 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 2: his Summer League debut. Not that much of a surprise 296 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 2: to anybody. I think everybody sort of understood what the 297 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 2: deal was. He probably should have been undrafted, but he 298 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 2: was taking number fifty five overall, et cetera, et cetera, 299 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 2: and we all know why. Well, Bronnie James talked about 300 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 2: his struggles, also talked about the possibility of going to 301 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 2: the G League to try and develop a little bit more. 302 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 2: Let's take a listen what happens. 303 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 5: I'm just looking forward to anybots going from It doesn't 304 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 5: matter what what, no love on finding. 305 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 4: Are you feeling? 306 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 6: I think at the time I always talked about Ross 307 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 6: a little bit, so that are you feeling more in 308 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 6: rhythm now that you've got four of these and are 309 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 6: you three? 310 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 4: I guess you're sorry, And are you feeling that more 311 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 4: each time? 312 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? 313 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure, he's getting more comfortable about my own 314 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 5: also getting comfortable garden bigger guys. 315 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, every game was just has been more. 316 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 2: Anyway, isn't. So I'm saying, I'm open to playing whatever 317 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 2: basketball it is, whatever's going to help me develop, whatever's 318 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 2: going to help me become a better player, whatever. Like 319 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: he's saying all the right things, yet for some reason 320 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 2: he doesn't get any benefit of the doubt. And I 321 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 2: look at it and I go, so, what is the 322 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 2: real issue with Bronnie James? Like what are people's real problem? 323 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 2: And then I thought, oh, that's right. It's not him. 324 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 2: It's everybody else speaking for him. It's his dad, it's 325 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 2: Rich Paul. Like Rich Paul going around telling people that, hey, 326 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 2: you know, if you you know, plan on making Bronnie 327 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 2: give him a two way contract, don't even bother drafting 328 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 2: him at all. We need a real deal, Like Rich 329 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 2: Paul saying that, Yet you've got Bronnie after two Summer 330 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 2: League games saying, yeah, I know, I'm in a little 331 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 2: bit of a slump. I'm just looking forward to playing 332 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 2: basketball whatever level I can play basketball in, I just 333 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 2: want to get better. Yet, people have an issue with 334 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 2: Bronnie James like they've got It's like, no, no, no, no, 335 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 2: this is guilt by association. There's a big difference between 336 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 2: having a problem with him and having a problem with 337 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 2: his group. It's the same as you may be in 338 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 2: a group when you go out, but if one person's 339 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: acting out and they're causing a mess, that doesn't mean 340 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 2: that it's you. That doesn't mean that you're the issue. 341 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 2: And so the more that I hear either him talk 342 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 2: or the more that I stand back and look at 343 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 2: the situation, I go I don't think that people's problem 344 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: is necessarily with the guy who's playing. Their problem was 345 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 2: with all the other noise that's come around him. It's 346 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 2: kind of like the Caleb Williams thing, when Caleb Williams 347 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 2: was coming out and he was getting ready to join 348 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 2: the draft, and or he was getting ready to put 349 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 2: his name in the hat, or he was getting ready 350 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 2: to be the number one, like when all that stuff 351 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: was happening, Remember the discussions we were having. People were 352 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 2: to talking about him like he's a diva. They were 353 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 2: talking about Caleb Williams because he jumped in his mother's arms. 354 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 2: They were talking about Caleb Williams and his attitude and 355 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 2: he wanted partial ownership, and he was going to refuse 356 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 2: to play for certain teams, and he didn't want to 357 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,199 Speaker 2: be in Chicago and he didn't want like there was 358 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 2: all sorts of stuff about Caleb Williams. This is cables, 359 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 2: you know what. That never came from Caleb Williams himself. 360 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 2: None of that came from him. Never one time was 361 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 2: he ever saying publicly. Did he ever come out and say, 362 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 2: I refuse to play for this team. I'm not going 363 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 2: to play for that team. You know, if this happens, 364 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 2: I want partial like never. And the more that you 365 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: talk to people who actually did interact with him, the 366 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 2: more that you heard, I don't know, he seems like 367 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 2: a really good dude. Like I don't know, I feel 368 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 2: like this is a lot of representing Caleb Williams without 369 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 2: the representation of Caleb Williams. That's what it feels like 370 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: to me. Like everything that we heard going into the 371 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 2: draft was, oh, man, Caleb Williams. You know, he doesn't 372 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 2: like what's happening in Chicago. He doesn't like the direction 373 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: of the organization, and you know what, he wants to 374 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 2: force his force his way out, and he wants to 375 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 2: be in Washington to play for the Commanders. And yet 376 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 2: since he's gotten there totally embraced it. They've fallen in 377 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 2: love with him. The guy appeared at a Cubs game 378 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 2: and the place gave him a standing ovation. Everything you've 379 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 2: heard from his teammates, from his coaches, completely different from 380 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 2: everything that we were hearing about Caleb Williams coming into 381 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 2: the draft. Completely different. But it's the noise outside of 382 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 2: him that we just apply to him. And that's the 383 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 2: same thing that's happened with Brownie James. Nothing he's done 384 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 2: do I look at and go, oh, screw that guy. Then, 385 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 2: I've said this multiple times before. I actually kind of 386 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 2: feel bad for him because I wonder if deep down 387 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 2: he's actually into all this, If all of the noise 388 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 2: and the stuff that's happening, maybe he's like, no, I 389 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 2: don't mind being a I'll go take a two way contract. 390 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 2: I'll go play in the G League. I don't care 391 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 2: if it's gonna get me better. It's gonna get me better. 392 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 2: Like that's fine. But when you've got Rich Paul talking 393 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 2: for him, when you've got lebron James using the media 394 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 2: to try and get certain messaging out there, and that's 395 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 2: where people have an issue. It's misdirected frustration is all 396 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: it is. You're not pissed at him, You're pissed at 397 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 2: the situation. And if you actually look at the situation, 398 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 2: it's not really Bronnie James. It's the people speaking on 399 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 2: behalf of him, just like it was when Caleb Williams 400 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 2: came into the draft.

Fact of the matter 459 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 2: is it's going down, and it's going down this way. 460 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: And this movie is the NFL soon to be eighteen 461 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 2: game schedule. And I got to give credit to George 462 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 2: Kittle who was speaking with Rich Eisen recently, who basically 463 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 2: just said, look, I know, I'm a player. I know 464 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: maybe this isn't, you know, the popular opinion, but facts 465 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 2: are fact. The ending is already written, and we're going 466 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 2: to get ourselves an extra game in the NFL regular season. 467 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: It's inevitably first it's going to get to eighteen games 468 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: at some point, right, nuh And I've I think I've 469 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 1: said it for like ever since we got to seventeen games. 470 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 4: I was like, just give us two buys. 471 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: And it just adds an extra week to the season anyways, 472 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 1: because now you're instead of eighteen weeks, now you're at 473 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: nineteen weeks. So that's another air week of football. That 474 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: you're on TV with all the ads and all that stuff. 475 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: Increases the season long and it gives guys an extra 476 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: week of rest because you need that. It's hard to 477 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,479 Speaker 1: play eighteen games. Well, like, I'm totally fine with that. 478 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: Just give us two buys. 479 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 2: It's just a matter of when not if. It was 480 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 2: always going to get to this point. And so when 481 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: you started seeing some of the news trickle out there. 482 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 2: Remember we talked about it a couple of months back. 483 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 2: Roger Goodell was on Pat McAfee show the Friday after 484 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 2: the first round of the NFL Draft, and he was 485 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 2: taught like, eh, you know, so we're thinking this syday. 486 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 2: What about you know, super Bowl on the Monday, the 487 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 2: President's Day in Super Bowl the day before that. Next thing, 488 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 2: you to everybody's got a day off for morek All 489 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 2: of this was going to get here anyways. This is 490 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 2: where this was going. And so when you have people 491 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 2: justifying it now to where it's been thrown out, you know, 492 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: because of this Sunday ticket loss for the NFL and 493 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 2: and all of that that happened, they're gonna have to 494 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 2: come up with fourteen billion dollars. Well, what's the quickest 495 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,920 Speaker 2: way you can come up with fourteen billion dollars. Well, 496 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 2: you know, if you played more games, how do you 497 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 2: play more games? Add an extra It's like this was 498 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 2: always going to be the case. It was always going 499 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 2: to get here. And as I've said before, you're probably 500 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 2: going to end up with an extra playoff team as 501 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 2: well too. At some point. That's where that's going to 502 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 2: go to, where you're going to go back to the 503 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 2: one and two seeds having to buy, but you're going 504 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 2: to add an extra playoff Like it's just like, this 505 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 2: is where this is going to go, and this is 506 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 2: where it was always going to go. And George Kittle, 507 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 2: some people may look at that and go, well, you're 508 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 2: supposed to support the players, like, you know, this isn't 509 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 2: good for us. We're going to get screw again. He's 510 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: just being realistic about it. Why fight it? Why are 511 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: we pretending like this isn't gonna pass it? Always like 512 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 2: the NFL owners always get what they want. Always, Like 513 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 2: whether it was d Marie Smith saying no, no, no, we're 514 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 2: gonna fight for this. We're gonna fight for that, I mean, 515 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 2: he was like pushing it out there like three years 516 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 2: in advance. We're gonna push we're gonna let everybody know 517 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 2: that we're not going to take this and we're not 518 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 2: going to take that deal. And then all of a sudden, 519 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 2: the CBA comes out and you got players afterwards, veteran 520 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 2: players like Rogers, being like, man, we just agreed to 521 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 2: a bad deal. What happened to all this talk? I 522 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 2: think George Kittle looks at it and says, man, it 523 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 2: is what it is. Like, We're gonna get to this 524 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 2: point anyways, so why push back against it? And the 525 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: example I've always used is the college football Playoff. You 526 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 2: wouldn't find anybody that was more against expanding the college 527 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 2: football playoff than me. I thought it was unnecessary. I 528 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 2: thought it made it feel less special. When you got 529 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 2: to the four team playoff, it was kind of cool, like, okay, 530 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 2: we're at the four team playoff. These are the four 531 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 2: best teams. It's an exclusive group. You can argue about 532 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 2: five all you want. That's fine. And then people started 533 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 2: throwing out there, hey what about this eight game college 534 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 2: football playoff? And no, no, no, no, I'll tell you what. 535 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 2: We'll split the difference. Give me six teams first to 536 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 2: get a buye. Then we'll have three verse six four 537 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,239 Speaker 2: verse five, and then we go from there. And then 538 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, I just realized, what's the point, Like, 539 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 2: what's the point? Like I was also against Thursday and 540 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: at football that Thursday night. Football sucked? And then I realized, 541 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 2: why even argue it, why even push back against it. 542 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: It's like being a parent when your kid's making a mess. 543 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 2: I remember the first time my kid really started making 544 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 2: a mess, like leaving toys all around the house. I'd 545 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: get pissed because I would be picking a toy up here, 546 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 2: picking another toy up there. Then right as soon as 547 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 2: I get it cleaned up, he takes them all out again, 548 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 2: and all the toys are all over there, and I'd 549 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 2: be getting pissed, like I'm trying to clean this up, 550 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 2: And then you just realize, why are you fighting it? 551 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: Just clean it up when he goes to bed, there's 552 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 2: no point. All you gotta walk. The only thing you 553 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 2: have to worry about as a parent is walking through 554 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 2: the bear traps and land mines that are toys with 555 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 2: sharp edges when you've got no shoes on. That's all 556 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 2: you gotta worry about. Whether it's a lego. Do you 557 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 2: know how many monster trucks I've stepped on do you 558 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 2: know what Meglodon is? Meglodon is a monster truck, that's 559 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 2: a shark on tires. I've stepped on the top fin 560 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 2: of a Meglodon monster truck at least a thousand times. 561 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 2: That's my only concern Now. I don't worry about whether 562 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 2: or not I can clean up after him fast enough, 563 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 2: because it's just gonna make a mess. Anyways. If you're 564 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: an NFL player, stop worrying about cleaning up the mess. 565 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: Just trying tiptoe through the darkness and don't step on 566 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,479 Speaker 2: any monster trucks or don't get any you know, in 567 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 2: any other issues like and whatever you need to do. 568 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 2: But if you're arguing about what the reality is going 569 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 2: to be and what the ending is going to be, 570 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: it's over. It's already been written. We're getting eighteen games. 571 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 2: It's just a matter of when, not if. And in 572 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 2: my mind it's happening in under two years. That's the 573 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 2: way I see this whole thing playing out.

Let's get kinky. Here's some of the big 600 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 3: stories from the last week. But Jonas, the real question 601 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 3: is do you care? 602 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 2: And for that we turn it over to our executive 603 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 2: producer Bo Benson to find out what the hell people 604 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 2: have been talking about all week. 605 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:51,479 Speaker 3: Bo. 606 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 8: So, just a year after being drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates, 607 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 8: rookie starter Paul Skeens is going to take the mound 608 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 8: for the Nation League in the All Star Game this week, 609 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 8: as it was announced on our very own airwaves here 610 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,719 Speaker 8: on The Dan Patrick Show yesterday morning. So, Jonas, do 611 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 8: you care about Paul Sken's starting the Star Game? 612 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 2: Listen, if anybody's watched this guy, he's fantastic. And I've 613 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 2: seen that there's even some betting sites that have taken 614 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 2: away the ability to bet on like Rookie of the 615 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 2: Year or Cy Young because all of a sudden they 616 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 2: don't know how to adjust, like they don't know how 617 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 2: to look at this and how to factor in the 618 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 2: fact that he started the season in the minors, he 619 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: didn't get called up until May. What does that do. 620 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 2: He's been one of the best pitchers in baseball. He's 621 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 2: been totally dominant. It's well deserved. And also it's an 622 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 2: All Star Game. You want storylines, you want things to 623 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 2: track and things to follow to be able to put 624 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 2: him on a stage like that on top of the 625 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 2: fact that he's a Pittsburgh Pirate, which means in about 626 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 2: two years will be a Yankee. So that's a good thing, 627 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 2: and it's good news from Major League Baseball, and it's 628 00:33:58,360 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 2: an awesome story. 629 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 8: Next, the Philadelphia Phillies owned the best record in baseball 630 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 8: and they now have eight All Stars participating in the game. 631 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 8: Christopher Sanchez is going to replace Chris Sale on the roster. 632 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 8: So Jonas, do you care? 633 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 2: Not really? You know what, but this is still a 634 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 2: thing to where every team's got to have at least 635 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 2: one player in the All Star Game. I could get. 636 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 8: I think it is. 637 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it is. That's all. That's one of 638 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 2: the dumbest things in the world. And I'll say that, 639 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 2: let me put that top five, one of the dumbest 640 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,919 Speaker 2: things in the world. If in fact, every team has 641 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 2: to have a guy on the roster in Major League 642 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 2: Baseball at the All Star Game, if everybody's got to 643 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 2: be represented, if that's still the case, that's a disgrace, 644 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 2: all right, the best players should get it. The best 645 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 2: teams are going to have the most players, and the 646 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 2: Phillies are one of the better teams in baseball all 647 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 2: season long. They're a World Series contender. They're probably going 648 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 2: to meet the Dodgers in the NLCS, and then they 649 00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 2: deserve to have that many players going. 650 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 8: Bill Belichick is going to join Inside the NFL for 651 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 8: the twenty twenty four season. Do you care? 652 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 3: Yes? 653 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 2: I love it. I love anybody likes a good rebound story. 654 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick was a year ago, less than a year ago, 655 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 2: everybody was talking about he's lost it. They need to 656 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 2: move on. Is he going to be fired in season? 657 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 2: Blah blah blah blah blah. Now everybody wants him all 658 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 2: of a sudden. He's doing multiple shows. He's going to 659 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 2: be on Inside the NFL. He's going to be on 660 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 2: the Manning Cast. He's going to be one of the 661 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 2: top coaches on the market next year. There's going to 662 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 2: be a waiting list of teams that want to talk 663 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 2: to him. So it's good for Bill Belichick. He was 664 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 2: listed as the fall guy and the scapegoat for everything 665 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 2: that happened in New England. So Robert Kraf wouldn't have 666 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 2: to take responsibility for any of it. And now Belichick's 667 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 2: the guy that everybody wants to hear from, and everybody 668 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 2: wants to go to, and everybody wants to talk to. 669 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 2: He's going to be fantastic. If you've ever heard him 670 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 2: break down players before and discussed this stuff from an 671 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 2: analytical standpoint, he's awesome and he's gonna be great again. 672 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 8: Next, the NBA unveiled the groupings for the twenty twenty 673 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 8: four NBA Cup, which is the new name for the 674 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 8: Ncason Tournament. Jonas, do you care? 675 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: Oh God, I hate this? No, Come on, man, like, 676 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 2: come on, like listen, the Lakers who won the nd 677 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 2: season tournament last year told you how important that was 678 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 2: when they fired their coach afterwards. Who won the tournament 679 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 2: for him? 680 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 9: Like? 681 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 2: Why just because the euro Cup's going on and people 682 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 2: have liked what they've seen, Just because the cocka CAF 683 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,479 Speaker 2: Gold Cup is going on and people like what they've seen, 684 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 2: a Copa America, a Gold Cup, COPA Who Cares, Bronze Cup, 685 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it, Like, just because you 686 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 2: see these other things having success, now you are like, oh, 687 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 2: now is when we want to let everybody know about 688 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 2: this tournament coming up in November. Nobody cares. Nobody takes 689 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,839 Speaker 2: it serious. Not even the team that won it last 690 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 2: year took it serious. That's why a guy got clipped afterwards. 691 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 8: Next, former Jets and Seahawks safety Jamal Adams has signed 692 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 8: a one year deal with the Tennessee Titans. Jonas, do 693 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 8: you care. 694 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 2: Not really? I mean, listen, I hope he makes the team. 695 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 2: He's somebody who was one of the best players at 696 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 2: his position. He got paid rightfully, so he went to 697 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 2: Seattle and it just never materialized. He suffered a terrible injury. 698 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 2: He's had really bad luck with injuries. But when he's 699 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 2: on and when he was playing well, he was one 700 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 2: of the better safeties in the league. I hope it 701 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,360 Speaker 2: works out, but I'm a little bit skeptical. 702 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 8: Next, Bear's defensive back Jalen Johnson praised rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, 703 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 8: saying that he stands out already as a rookie. 704 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 2: Do you care, not really? I mean, look, Caleb Williams 705 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 2: is going to stand out just based on the fact 706 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 2: that he was the number one pick and everybody's tracking 707 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 2: and wanting to see what this guy does. I just 708 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 2: find it interesting because you've got all, as we talked 709 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 2: about with the Brownie James stuff, you got all these 710 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 2: people that were speaking on behalf of Caleb Williams talking 711 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 2: about how Caleb Williams, you know, is a diva and 712 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,919 Speaker 2: he paints his nails and he's this and that. Yet 713 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 2: everybody who's coming close contact with him, anybody who's been 714 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 2: around him, says the complete opposite. Like coaches to listen, 715 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,399 Speaker 2: if he struggles, he owns up to it. He wants 716 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 2: to get better, he's trying to get better. He's trying 717 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 2: all of that. Jalen Johnson was one of those guys 718 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,320 Speaker 2: talking about, hey, you know, you don't bring that Hollywood 719 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 2: stuff around here. It's a different league black and yet 720 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 2: everybody that's gotten close contact with him looks at him 721 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 2: and goes, oh, no, wait a second. That was nothing 722 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 2: like what we thought we were going to be getting. 723 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 2: And that's what's going to be fun to watch if 724 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 2: you want to watch, if you're interested in watching Hard 725 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 2: Knocks next. 726 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 8: The NFL on Fox has reportedly decided who will be 727 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 8: paired up as their broadcast teams for this year. Tom 728 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,760 Speaker 8: Brady's gonna Land with Kevin Burkhart, as we all expected, 729 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 8: greg Olsen's gonna be paired up with Joe Davis. So Jonas, 730 00:38:58,520 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 8: do you care? 731 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 2: I mean not really. I was gonna watch regardless, but 732 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 2: I kind of like listen, people could say whatever they want, 733 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 2: and I will go on record and call my shot 734 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 2: on this. The Tom Brady experiment is going to work. Now. 735 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,399 Speaker 2: There's going to be some people that are gonna want 736 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,720 Speaker 2: to bury it early on. If he struggles at all 737 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 2: week one, if he struggles calling the Browns Cowboys game, 738 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 2: or there's a slip up or any sort of an issue, 739 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 2: people are going to want to call for his head 740 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,400 Speaker 2: and talk about what a bad hire it is, and 741 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 2: everybody's going to I think Tom Brady and Greg Olsen 742 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 2: is fascinating for this reason. Brady knows what the noise is. 743 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,760 Speaker 2: He knows what everybody's talking about. He knows that everybody 744 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,839 Speaker 2: thinks that Greg Olsen got screwed over and that Tom 745 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 2: Brady took his spot, and that Greg Olsen and Kevin 746 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 2: Burkhardt should have been the pairing moving forward. All of 747 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 2: that is makes sense. I get it. I understand the criticism. 748 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 2: I understand why people aren't happy about it. Fact of 749 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 2: the matter is this Brady. I heard all that, and 750 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 2: for as much as people like Greg Olson, I think 751 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 2: Brady looks at it and says, I'm gonna be better. 752 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 2: I think that's his competitive nature. I think that's how 753 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 2: the guy operates. I think it's going to be a success. 754 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be fantastic with Kevin Burkhard and listen, 755 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 2: it's not like Greg Olsen just got thrown out in 756 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 2: the street and everyone said, ah, you know, screw. He's 757 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 2: got Joe Davis. Joe Davis calls the World Series, he 758 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 2: does the Dodgers games every single day. Joe Davis is great. 759 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 2: Everything's gonna be fine, and as long as football is back, 760 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 2: we're all gonna be okay. People got to relax, man, 761 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 2: Do you understand how cool it's gonna be Week one 762 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: when Tom Brady's on the call. And I've said this before, 763 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 2: it'll be the most closely listened to game that we've 764 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 2: heard in a long time. You're gonna have people around 765 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 2: you say shut up because I want to hear what 766 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,760 Speaker 2: the broadcaster says. I don't know when that's ever happened 767 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 2: or the last time that's happened in the NFL or 768 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,359 Speaker 2: in sport. You know, somebody in the NFL probably has 769 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 2: good reason to be a little bit annoyed or frustrated 770 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 2: with the situation there, and we'll explain why that is 771 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:03,359 Speaker 2: coming up here in just a couple of moments from 772 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 2: now gionas Knox Fox Sports Radio.

That's kind of how I feel about it, 789 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 2: because I think that the fact that you've got players 790 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,759 Speaker 2: from the Jets, not just Aaron Rodgers, but you've got 791 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 2: players from the Jets like Breece Hall. You've got people 792 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 2: talking about how, hey, listen, if he wants to if 793 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:21,320 Speaker 2: he wants to come on over, we'd welcome him. It's okay, 794 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,760 Speaker 2: Like there's there's no issue whatsoever, Like we're totally okay 795 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 2: with with DeVante Adams being here, and this is this 796 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 2: is fine for us. Like you've got everybody with the Jets, 797 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 2: not just Aaron Rodgers, basically open to the idea of 798 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 2: Rogers and Davante Adams pairing back up together and it 799 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,359 Speaker 2: not being in Las Vegas, but it being in New York. 800 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 2: Like everybody's on board with it. And the only reason 801 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 2: they're speaking out like that or speaking publicly like Garrett 802 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,720 Speaker 2: Wilson or Breecee Hall or Rogers is because they probably 803 00:42:56,719 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 2: feel like they can basically tampering, right, Like I mean, 804 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 2: the Falcons got popped, what they lost draft picks three 805 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,759 Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars whatever, because Kirk Cousins pointed out that 806 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,839 Speaker 2: him and Kyle Pitts might have had some discussions, you know, 807 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 2: before they actually got together. Like you've got multiple members 808 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 2: of one team talking about one player for another team 809 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 2: and how they want to team up together, Aaron Rodgers saying, yeah, 810 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 2: we're looking to team up with him again. Like, I 811 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 2: don't think that happens unless they feel like they've got 812 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 2: the green light from DeVante Adams to speak like that. 813 00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 2: And so DeVante Adams is, you know, making the rounds recently, 814 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 2: he was talking with Kay Adams and talking about how 815 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 2: Rogers is trying to get in his ear all the time, 816 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 2: talking about, yeah, you know, I guess you know I 817 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 2: you know, Aidan O'Connell's the guy that I would go with. 818 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 2: And then there's this new Netflix series it's out called Receiver, 819 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 2: and on it, you know, DeVante Adams expressed expressed his frustration. 820 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 2: You can listen here. This sounds like a guy who 821 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 2: was really at his end last year with Lost with 822 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 2: Las Vegas Raiders. 823 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 4: I got here, I follow my life. 824 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 1: I never been hit this times in my careers. 825 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 4: Every game I get go. 826 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 2: Now the counter to that would be, well, that was 827 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 2: last year, right, that was Jimmy Garoppolo. DeVante Adams said, 828 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 2: you know, basically I gave the okay for them to 829 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,399 Speaker 2: bench Jimmy Garoppolo. So like, all that's good, But let 830 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 2: me ask you a question. Is the quarterback situation that 831 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 2: much better with Aidan O'Connell and Gardner Minshew than it 832 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 2: would be with Jimmy Garoppolo. Isn't that much better? Because 833 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,279 Speaker 2: I don't think it is, and I'm not saying it's 834 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,800 Speaker 2: not slightly better, but is it enough of a difference 835 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 2: to go ahead and make a guy forget about the 836 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 2: fact that what he wanted to be a part of 837 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 2: is a shell of what it actually is now. And 838 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 2: that's really the issue. Like he wanted to be part 839 00:44:54,200 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 2: of something and joined something because he he envisioned a 840 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 2: completely different situation. He went to Las Vegas to be 841 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 2: a Raider because he thought he was going to team 842 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 2: up with Derek Carr. Oops, but that lasts like eleven 843 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 2: thirteen games. Like he thought that it was an organization 844 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 2: that was close to competing. They're not. You've had coaching issues, 845 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 2: you had a guy get fired mid season, Antonio Peers 846 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 2: got the job, and then you've got the players going 847 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 2: to own like and I love Antonio Peers, and I 848 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:39,280 Speaker 2: think they've got talented players there. But look, Josh Jacobs 849 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 2: said it recently said it in a podcast with Chris Long, like, hey, man, 850 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,359 Speaker 2: like they're just okay with losing. He goes, I came 851 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 2: from Alabama. I got there, we lost our first game. 852 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 2: I was pissed, and a veteran said to me, like, 853 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 2: I don't where you're in the NFL. You're going to 854 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 2: lose a lot. He said, You're okay with that. Like, 855 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 2: I think part of that still sits with DeVante Adams 856 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 2: that he looks at this and says, what I thought 857 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:08,279 Speaker 2: I was joining is completely different, completely different than what 858 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 2: it is when I got here. And I think that's 859 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 2: part of the frustration. That's why I don't blame him, 860 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 2: Like he assumed that they were going to be one thing, 861 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 2: and it's complete. Have you ever seen the movie Funny 862 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 2: Farm with Chevy Chase, great movie and basically him and 863 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:31,399 Speaker 2: his wife decided to buy a place. When they were 864 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 2: shown the place and they got to see it, it 865 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:38,640 Speaker 2: looked great, like it was like picturesque, like right out 866 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 2: of a postcard, like you would see like it's like 867 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 2: one of those shots that when you go and you 868 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:45,879 Speaker 2: buy a calendar at the Dollar Tree, you know, they've 869 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 2: got these generic like shots of like, you know, barns 870 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 2: and crap like around the country. This would be like theirs, 871 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 2: Like their house was perfect, everything was great, and then 872 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,720 Speaker 2: they come to find out people in town are nuts. 873 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,440 Speaker 2: They've got a mailman who drives too fast and throws 874 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:06,439 Speaker 2: mail at them, they got a dog that ran away 875 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 2: like it was a disaster, and they wanted to get 876 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 2: the hell out of there because they're like, yeah, this 877 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,919 Speaker 2: wasn't what we bought. Like Devanta Adams is looking around 878 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,319 Speaker 2: at a funny farm, like, dude, this is not what 879 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,280 Speaker 2: I thought I was getting. And so now we're here. 880 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 2: He sees all the money that's being handed out to 881 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 2: other ride receivers, guys that haven't put up the numbers 882 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,919 Speaker 2: he's put up, and he's like, m yeah, I don't 883 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 2: know if that's gonna happen here. I don't know if 884 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 2: I can get the best out of my career in 885 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,400 Speaker 2: its prime in Las Vegas anymore, with all the changes 886 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 2: that have taken place post me deciding I wanted to 887 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 2: come play here. And I think that's part of the irritation. 888 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 2: I think that's part of the frustration, and that's why 889 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 2: I would be shocked if DeVante Adams is a Raider 890 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 2: by the time the season's over. Shocked. Jonas Knox here, 891 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:55,360 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, get me on Twitter, at the Jonas 892 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 2: Knox at the Jonas Knox on Twitter. Let me just 893 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 2: I'd also like to keep it in the AFE West 894 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 2: for something, because I saw this story kind of get 895 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 2: thrown around, because I mean, let's be honest here, you know, 896 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 2: there's a lot of like we're trying to find different 897 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 2: things to try and focus on. You know, football is 898 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 2: kind of in this slow period. It's going to start 899 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:17,240 Speaker 2: to ramp up. You've got people reporting to camp soon, Ravens, 900 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 2: rookiees already there like, oh, that's like it's fine, Which, 901 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 2: by the way, how about the fact that football is 902 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 2: right around the corner. 903 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 4: All right? 904 00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 2: For those of you that want to discredit the preseason. 905 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 2: We got the Hall of Fame game between the Bears 906 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 2: and the Texans coming up on August first, which is 907 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 2: an appropriate segue to this because Matt Eberflus, the head 908 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 2: coach of the Bears, is the favorite to win Coach 909 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 2: of the Year, and I looked at that, and I 910 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,000 Speaker 2: saw people discussing, well, should he be the fair and 911 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 2: they were more focusing on the Bears, like, you know 912 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:49,880 Speaker 2: what the Bears are doing. They've got this young quarterback, 913 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 2: They've surrounded him with pieces, he's a generational talent. Blah 914 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 2: blah blah. Defense is good, White offensive line is better 915 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,959 Speaker 2: than people expect. Like all that'suff and all that's fair, 916 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 2: And maybe Maddie REFI win Coach of the Year, But 917 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 2: if I was going to put my money on something, 918 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 2: I would want to do it on something that I know, 919 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 2: like a proven commodity. So I look at it and 920 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,399 Speaker 2: I go, all right, so what's a proven commodity? Because 921 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:18,839 Speaker 2: the real big factors to them having success this year 922 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 2: so much that he would win Coach of the Year 923 00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 2: are him as a coach and Caleb Williams is a quarterback. 924 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:31,359 Speaker 2: So what if I were to tell you that there's 925 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 2: another team that does have an established quarterback and does 926 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 2: have an established coach and they're also kind of in 927 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 2: the vicinity of Coach of the Year favorites potentially winning 928 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 2: the award this year. So when I see everybody talking 929 00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 2: about the Bear side of it and what Maddie Refluse 930 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 2: needs to do to be Coach of the Year. I 931 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 2: look around and I go, what about Jim Harbaugh. Like 932 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh sitting at ten to one on Draftking right now, 933 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 2: like he's second as far as odds go, as far 934 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 2: as the shortest odds to win it. And if I 935 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 2: was going to lay money on any of these guys 936 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 2: near the top, whether it's Robert Salah, Matt Lafleur, Raheem Moore's, 937 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 2: Tamiko Ryans, Jim Harbaugh is the guy I would look 938 00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 2: at because you know that he can coach. He's done 939 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 2: it everywhere he's gone. He's done it at college, he 940 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 2: did it in the NFL, he went back to college 941 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 2: and did it again at the highest level now he's 942 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 2: back with the Chargers. You know he can coach established. 943 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:40,279 Speaker 2: That's a known commodity. And you know Justin Herbert's a 944 00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 2: good quarterback. So if you know those are both known commodities, 945 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 2: and those are both important factors to who's going to 946 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:49,759 Speaker 2: win the Coach of the Year. You got to have 947 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 2: your quarterback playing well, and he needs somebody who's established 948 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 2: as a coach. Jim Harbaugh, to me, is the one 949 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 2: with the most value in it Because I look at 950 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,120 Speaker 2: harbor Go, I don't have any questions about whether or 951 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 2: not he can do this. He's done it before. Like 952 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,319 Speaker 2: if you want to question, like you know Matt Eberflus 953 00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 2: and whether or not you know you're relying on a 954 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 2: rookie quarterback to make you that much better, Like I 955 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,279 Speaker 2: think they're gonna be better. I like Caleb Williams, I 956 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,359 Speaker 2: like Matt Eberflus. I'm glad he brought back. He did 957 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 2: a really good job with that defense especially, But if 958 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 2: you're looking into a more known commodity to put your 959 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 2: money down on, I don't know how you steer away 960 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 2: from Justin Herbert and Jim Harbaugh when it comes to that. 961 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 2: And right now on DraftKings you can get it at 962 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 2: ten to one.

They're like, we don't 999 00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 2: know what happened, and Jerry I said something along the 1000 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 2: lines of because they know that the Chiefs beat the 1001 00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,360 Speaker 2: forty nine ers in the Super Bowl last year and 1002 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:12,319 Speaker 2: I'm always gonna rep the forty nine ers. And it's like, yeah, 1003 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:16,279 Speaker 2: but what's that got to do with the question, Like 1004 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 2: I almost would like, don't you just wish people would 1005 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:23,360 Speaker 2: be brutally honest, Like you may not like the answer, 1006 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,240 Speaker 2: but just be brutally honest, like when you know, earlier 1007 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:30,360 Speaker 2: this week and again, nobody's condoning this behavior, right, nobody's 1008 00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:33,919 Speaker 2: saying this is okay. But you know when like Mike 1009 00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 2: Gundhy you know, came out and decided to defend you know, 1010 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 2: his player, Ollie Gordon's DUI or rest and just said, 1011 00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 2: you know, something along the lines up. You know, I 1012 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 2: looked at that situation. I was like, well, that's something 1013 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 2: I've done it, you know, hundreds of times in my 1014 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 2: life or a thousands of times. It's like, eh, you know, 1015 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:58,239 Speaker 2: maybe not the greatest answer, considering the fact that the 1016 00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 2: guy got popped for a dewey. You know, maybe not 1017 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,160 Speaker 2: the greatest thing in the world, but you know, at least, 1018 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:07,799 Speaker 2: you know, somewhat honest and you hear it and you 1019 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 2: go there's at least some level of respect to be like, hey, 1020 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,760 Speaker 2: I've made that mistake too, just letting everybody know. It's like, okay, 1021 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,120 Speaker 2: well nobody's condoning it. You know, you're not saying you 1022 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:20,799 Speaker 2: do it anymore, we hope. But there was a level 1023 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,640 Speaker 2: of honesty there that I looked at and said, well, 1024 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean it's pretty tough to get, you know, 1025 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:29,319 Speaker 2: coaches in college football to be honest about stuff, and 1026 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,920 Speaker 2: a lot of it's like a used car salesman approach. 1027 00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 2: It feels like half the time. And then you got 1028 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 2: Mike Gundy being like I've done that too, Like, okay, 1029 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:38,719 Speaker 2: didn't expect that. But the point is like there was 1030 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 2: at least a level of respect for the honesty. You know, 1031 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 2: at least he at least he was being honest. It's 1032 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 2: like I wish Jerry Rice would just come out after 1033 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 2: the fact and be like, what listen, man, I was hammered, 1034 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 2: like what do you want? Wasn't playing well? You know, 1035 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 2: we got the drink cart following us around. It's like 1036 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,279 Speaker 2: they're on me like a locust. It's like, you know, 1037 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have a cup of throat burners while I'm 1038 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,320 Speaker 2: playing golf. Whatever. It's a celebrity tournament. I'm one of 1039 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 2: the greatest football players of all time. I'm retired, I'm 1040 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,319 Speaker 2: doing well financially. I could do whatever the hell I want, 1041 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:10,279 Speaker 2: all right, And so you know what I decided to do. 1042 00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,399 Speaker 2: I decided to bend the ebo. I decided to lick 1043 00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,920 Speaker 2: the lid. I decided to get on the liver loop, 1044 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 2: all right, Nothing wrong with that couple of sinsuckers. While 1045 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 2: you're out there playing golf, guys come up to you. 1046 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 2: You're in a bad mood about the Super Bowl. Who knows, 1047 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 2: maybe he bet a little bit of money on the 1048 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,759 Speaker 2: Super Bowl and he lost. All Right, guys come get 1049 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 2: in his face and say, hey, do they have a 1050 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 2: good enough receivers receiving core? And he gets a little 1051 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 2: pissed off about it, you know, instead of just saying, well, 1052 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:40,800 Speaker 2: they had a smirk on their face. Just come out afterwards, 1053 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:46,160 Speaker 2: be like, hey, whatever, you know, I got butchered on 1054 00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 2: the course. Blame the Blame the golf. You know, the 1055 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,759 Speaker 2: person driving the golf card around with drinksloaded in the 1056 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 2: back of it. What do you want from me? Like, 1057 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,320 Speaker 2: if you would have just said that, I'd be like, okay, 1058 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,439 Speaker 2: it makes sense. But instead it just looks like he's 1059 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 2: you know, losing his mind because of you know, random, 1060 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 2: not offensive question at all from a couple of reporters 1061 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:08,000 Speaker 2: at a golf tournament. Kind of a bad look, you know, 1062 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,880 Speaker 2: just be honest about the whole thing. Jonas Noxi or 1063 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:13,400 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. All right, so let's be honest about this. 1064 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 2: One of the feel good stories in the NFL, in 1065 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 2: my mind, is the transformation of the one and only 1066 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:23,800 Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield. 1067 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 4: Right. 1068 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 2: So, Baker Mayfield was talking recently and just you know, 1069 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 2: basically said that, you know, football is a lot more 1070 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 2: fun when you aren't being shipped around like dirty laundry. 1071 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 2: And he's right, because he was kind of passed around 1072 00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:42,880 Speaker 2: after a while. And there were a lot of people 1073 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 2: that looked at Baker Mayfield as like, Wow, he screwed up. 1074 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 2: What a mistake he made. It was a disaster in 1075 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,520 Speaker 2: Cleveland towards the end, and all the other things that 1076 00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:56,520 Speaker 2: came along with it. And now he's going to find 1077 00:57:56,600 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 2: himself as a journeyman quarterback and he goes to the Panthers, 1078 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 2: and then he ends up with the Rams and none 1079 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 2: of that worked out, and then he ends up in 1080 00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay. And then you actually take a step back 1081 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 2: and you look at the situation Baker Mayfield entered into, 1082 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 2: and you look at what he's done in his career, 1083 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,480 Speaker 2: and it's one of the feel good stories of the NFL. 1084 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you why. That was a guy who 1085 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 2: came in number one draft pick in a draft where 1086 00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,800 Speaker 2: yet other players drafted after him, guys like Josh Allen 1087 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,440 Speaker 2: who have gone on to get to make massive amounts 1088 00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 2: of money and are considered to be one of the 1089 00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 2: better quarterbacks in the NFL. And Baker Mayfield has looked 1090 00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 2: at as one of those well what a regret. Had 1091 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 2: the Browns taken Josh Allen, which was the rumor, then 1092 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 2: they would have been in a much better spot without. 1093 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:47,360 Speaker 2: And then you actually just take a step back and 1094 00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:49,200 Speaker 2: you look at Baker Mayfield and you look at what 1095 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 2: he did, and you go, okay, hold on a second. 1096 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 2: So he won a playoff game in Cleveland, which hadn't 1097 00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 2: been done in years and years and years. Okay, he 1098 00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 2: wins a playoff game there. He played pretty good football 1099 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:07,160 Speaker 2: at times. We understand the things ended poorly with Baker Mayfield, 1100 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 2: and you had Odell Beckham's dad and all the other 1101 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,040 Speaker 2: things that came along with it, and then you realize, well, 1102 00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 2: he came into the season, he really wasn't healthy. The 1103 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 2: guy was banged up from majority of that final year. 1104 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 2: The organization was a bit of a mess. They had 1105 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,440 Speaker 2: other injuries going on elsewhere, and he was sort of 1106 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 2: the scapegoat and sort of the fall guy. And the 1107 00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 2: reason that they moved on from Baker Mayfield is because 1108 00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,000 Speaker 2: he went public after he found out that they were 1109 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 2: trying to see about a Deshaun Watson acquisition. They were 1110 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 2: kicking the tires on Deshaun Watson he found out about it, 1111 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 2: he was pissed and decided I got to go elsewhere. 1112 00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 2: It took to social media and people looked at that 1113 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:46,480 Speaker 2: and said, well, you know, is he afraid of competition? 1114 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:48,640 Speaker 2: Is he afraid Like they tried to offer him a 1115 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:51,920 Speaker 2: contract the year before, he wouldn't take it. He ends 1116 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:55,480 Speaker 2: up going to Carolina. Terrible situation in my mind, one 1117 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:57,920 Speaker 2: of the worst situations in the NFL, based on everything 1118 00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:01,400 Speaker 2: we've seen from David Tepper and all the other stuff 1119 01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 2: that's gone on there in recent years. He goes to 1120 01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 2: Los Angeles, plays with the Rams for a little bit, 1121 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 2: and then goes to Tampa Bay and he's got to 1122 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 2: be the guy to compete for the opportunity to take 1123 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 2: over the franchise after Tom Brady, who won a Super 1124 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 2: Bowl there, just left. And not only did he play well, 1125 01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 2: he played the best football of his career in that situation, 1126 01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 2: taken over for Tom Brady. And on top of that, 1127 01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 2: they were better with Baker Mayfield at quarterback than they 1128 01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:43,200 Speaker 2: were with Tom Brady the year before. That's a fact. 1129 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 2: He gets a contract, they get it done, and you 1130 01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:51,680 Speaker 2: hear everybody on that organization and people took like Mike Evans, 1131 01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:56,920 Speaker 2: everybody talking about Baker Mayfield. Elijah Cansey was on with 1132 01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 2: Jim Rome recently talked about playing with Baker Mayfield and 1133 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 2: how he gets everybody fired up and what it's like 1134 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:05,240 Speaker 2: to be so you see sort of how they welcomed 1135 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 2: him in, how he embraced the opportunity. And this was 1136 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,120 Speaker 2: a guy that everybody had written off. And I would 1137 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:17,080 Speaker 2: argue this, if you were to just go side by 1138 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:22,600 Speaker 2: side and you were to take who would the Browns 1139 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,080 Speaker 2: rather have a quarterback right now? Based on what we've 1140 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:28,840 Speaker 2: done and what we've seen recently, would you rather have 1141 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield or Deshaun Watson. If you asked the Cleveland 1142 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 2: Browns and you strap them up to a live detector test, 1143 01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:39,120 Speaker 2: if they tell you that they didn't screw the pooch 1144 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:43,360 Speaker 2: by adding Toshaun Watson and moving on from Baker Mayfield 1145 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 2: based on what we've seen since, then you're out of 1146 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 2: your mind. He's been better than Deshaun Watson since he's 1147 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:54,919 Speaker 2: gotten there, and even when he was in Cleveland, he's 1148 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:57,880 Speaker 2: had better success as a Cleveland Brown quarterback than Deshaun 1149 01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:02,000 Speaker 2: Watson had. And this is a guy who's what three 1150 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 2: teams later Normally, when that happens, the guy bounces from 1151 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 2: team to team to team. It becomes journeyman situation like 1152 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:11,080 Speaker 2: you see it with Carson Wentz.

You could take that approach, or 1220 01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 2: you can take the approach of the heel. And in 1221 01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 2: professional wrestling, there are good guys and there are heels, 1222 01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:56,880 Speaker 2: and the heels are the ones that basically say whatever 1223 01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:02,560 Speaker 2: the hell they want, and ultimately they become cheered and 1224 01:06:02,680 --> 01:06:06,920 Speaker 2: rooted for because they do it and say it however 1225 01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:09,440 Speaker 2: they want, however they want to do it, and you 1226 01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,840 Speaker 2: just end up appreciating it, and you end up saying, 1227 01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:15,200 Speaker 2: you know what, I kind of like that guy or gal. 1228 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 2: I kind of like their edge, kind of like their attitude. 1229 01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:27,320 Speaker 2: Novak Djokovic has decided, you know what, I'm just going 1230 01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:29,080 Speaker 2: to be the heel Now, this has nothing to do 1231 01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:31,000 Speaker 2: with the vaccine stuff. I didn't even want to get 1232 01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:34,000 Speaker 2: into that. All right, enough's enough, right, I think everybody's 1233 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:38,720 Speaker 2: learned their lesson on that. But he basically called out 1234 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 2: the crowd at Wimbledon earlier this week, and he said 1235 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:47,440 Speaker 2: the following as they were trying to pull some shenanigans 1236 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 2: and cheer for somebody else and try and be creative 1237 01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:54,400 Speaker 2: and pull a fast on on Joker, and he decided, 1238 01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:56,960 Speaker 2: you know what, I'm not playing this game.

Bo, Yeah, 1348 01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:38,080 Speaker 2: get this one out of the way. 1349 01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:41,559 Speaker 8: Early former NFL the defensive coordinator Money Kiffin, the father 1350 01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:43,280 Speaker 8: of Laane kiff and he passed away earlier this week 1351 01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:46,360 Speaker 8: at the age of eighty four. Kiffen was considered the 1352 01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:48,640 Speaker 8: architect of the Tampa two defense, which a lot of 1353 01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 8: teams still use. And just looking at his resume as 1354 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:56,240 Speaker 8: a coach, he worked for everybody forever, so always awesome. 1355 01:12:56,520 --> 01:12:59,679 Speaker 8: Tough loss there, big profet and I are big fans 1356 01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 8: of Lane Kiffin. Still I believe, So I hope he's 1357 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:04,680 Speaker 8: doing well, and just a sad loss for. 1358 01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:05,519 Speaker 2: Infants of money. 1359 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:07,920 Speaker 9: Kiffin has bo just laid out there, you know, the 1360 01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:10,320 Speaker 9: architect of modern defense. 1361 01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:12,559 Speaker 2: In the NFL. Like, yeah, I know he's singing without him. 1362 01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:15,720 Speaker 2: Hell of a resume, hell of a career. And then 1363 01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:19,920 Speaker 2: I saw Lane Kiffin had a Senate tweet out and 1364 01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:23,000 Speaker 2: just basically said my hero and it was pictures of 1365 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:25,360 Speaker 2: him and his dad when he was a little kid, 1366 01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 2: hanging out with his dad while he was working. So 1367 01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:32,720 Speaker 2: sad stuff. And everything you've heard from anybody around the 1368 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:36,200 Speaker 2: league who's had any sort of interaction with Monti Kiffen 1369 01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:38,400 Speaker 2: always had nothing but great things to say about him. 1370 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:42,040 Speaker 2: So sad. Hopefully the family, you know, gets through it. 1371 01:13:42,040 --> 01:13:44,080 Speaker 2: It's a difficult time and it's a loss for the 1372 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:44,920 Speaker 2: NFL for sure. 1373 01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:45,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1374 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:49,640 Speaker 8: On a much happier note, Monday, July fifteenth will be 1375 01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:53,000 Speaker 8: the early access release date for EA Sports College Football 1376 01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:57,120 Speaker 8: twenty five. We are so back, it's like it never left. 1377 01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:59,160 Speaker 8: I'm very excited for this, and I think a lot 1378 01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:01,920 Speaker 8: of sports fans are because it also means that college 1379 01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:03,720 Speaker 8: football is a very close to returning as well. 1380 01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 2: So it is first game is August twenty sixth I believe, 1381 01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:10,559 Speaker 2: I believe it's August twenty six is when you've got 1382 01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:15,680 Speaker 2: the disrespected Week zero games, which which you know it's 1383 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:19,080 Speaker 2: just so insulting from everybody involved. But right around the corner. 1384 01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:22,280 Speaker 8: I believe the official team of this show, the Hawaii 1385 01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,000 Speaker 8: Rainbow Warriors, are going to play in week zero. 1386 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:26,680 Speaker 2: So you know it brought a you know what, I 1387 01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:30,840 Speaker 2: believe they've got, if I'm not mistaken, Delaware states, right, yeah, 1388 01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:33,960 Speaker 2: I think they've got Delaware State. And look, it's not 1389 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,240 Speaker 2: quite the same if they're not playing in a Loja stadium, 1390 01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:41,599 Speaker 2: but nonetheless, Hawaii's got Delaware State. There's also some other matchups. 1391 01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 2: There's also the game in Dublin, Ireland, which is Georgia 1392 01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:49,040 Speaker 2: Tach Florida state as well too, and the one I 1393 01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:51,640 Speaker 2: look at that game though, and last year when we 1394 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:54,559 Speaker 2: were there for the show, it was the place was 1395 01:14:54,600 --> 01:14:59,040 Speaker 2: bananas because it was Ireland. It was Notre Dame fighting Irish. 1396 01:14:59,120 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 2: They were playing Nay and so maybe it was completely outnumbered, 1397 01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:06,000 Speaker 2: but there were so many Notre Dame fans who made 1398 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:07,760 Speaker 2: the trip over because it's kind of a once in 1399 01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 2: a lifetime opportunity to go over to see your team 1400 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:13,479 Speaker 2: play in Ireland, and they filled that stadium. It was 1401 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 2: fifty one thousand and change. And so I looked at 1402 01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:19,120 Speaker 2: that and I'm like, all right, so who they got 1403 01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:22,759 Speaker 2: next year? And it's Florida State Georgia Tech. I can't 1404 01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:25,360 Speaker 2: imagine it's as busy as it's going to be like 1405 01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:28,400 Speaker 2: it was last year with Georgia. No disrespect to Florida 1406 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:31,479 Speaker 2: State and Georgia Tech. Great programs, but there was just 1407 01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:34,679 Speaker 2: something about the fighting Irish in Ireland that made way 1408 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 2: too much sense. I'm curious to see how that game looks. 1409 01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:40,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean either way, football very quickly coming back here. 1410 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 2: As also, let me ask you this is because I've 1411 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:47,800 Speaker 2: never played the college football video game. Is it better 1412 01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:48,680 Speaker 2: than Madden or No? 1413 01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:52,680 Speaker 8: I always preferred it to Madden myself, just because I 1414 01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:54,799 Speaker 8: was a bigger fan of college football at the time. 1415 01:15:55,560 --> 01:15:58,080 Speaker 8: But what they've shown, like gameplay wise for this it 1416 01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:00,120 Speaker 8: does look a lot better than Madden has looked in 1417 01:16:00,160 --> 01:16:04,160 Speaker 8: recent years. You Like, I think right now Lebron James 1418 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:08,719 Speaker 8: is actually streaming copy game gameplay for this new game, 1419 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,560 Speaker 8: so it does look a lot better. The college atmosphere 1420 01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:12,519 Speaker 8: is there and all that stuff. 1421 01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:15,599 Speaker 2: Okay, so why is it better Because it's the same company, 1422 01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:18,000 Speaker 2: EA's doing both of them, So why is one better 1423 01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 2: than that? 1424 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:21,759 Speaker 9: Because there is a possibility of taking someone like Georgia 1425 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:25,240 Speaker 9: Southern or like Towson up and winning a national title 1426 01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:26,120 Speaker 9: over Alabama. 1427 01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:29,519 Speaker 2: That's why. Okay, yeah, but the only way that happens 1428 01:16:29,520 --> 01:16:31,760 Speaker 2: if you change the settings on the game, right. 1429 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:34,479 Speaker 8: Can you can handle it? You can do it. Yeah, 1430 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:37,680 Speaker 8: just takes a lot of work. People back, like back 1431 01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 8: when people were really playing college football and it was 1432 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:42,840 Speaker 8: still a thing. Yearly, like you had guys that had, 1433 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:47,360 Speaker 8: you know, fifteen year save files running on programs that 1434 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:49,160 Speaker 8: they'd taken from Division three to Division one. 1435 01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:51,799 Speaker 9: And my friend Ross is still playing a modded version 1436 01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:54,439 Speaker 9: of one of the copies from the PlayStation three and 1437 01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:59,000 Speaker 9: like still has some of his programs run out of stay. 1438 01:16:59,160 --> 01:17:01,720 Speaker 2: I'm so behind. I just got tech mobile, like I 1439 01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:04,400 Speaker 2: have no I don't even know what language you guys 1440 01:17:04,439 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 2: are speaking, Like this whole thing's bizarre to They. 1441 01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:10,160 Speaker 8: Also do a better job of capturing, i think, the 1442 01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:12,960 Speaker 8: atmosphere of college football because they put a lot of 1443 01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:17,080 Speaker 8: work into like showing the traditions of certain schools and 1444 01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:21,760 Speaker 8: like this game, the crowd affects you. Your quarterback will 1445 01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:24,240 Speaker 8: have a struggle in a road environment. 1446 01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:26,800 Speaker 2: I mean, look, let's be on like, I like the 1447 01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 2: NFL more than college football. I mean, college football is 1448 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 2: my second favorite sport. But you know, so I like 1449 01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:38,320 Speaker 2: the NFL more than college just you know, because it's 1450 01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:43,679 Speaker 2: I think the product is better, the games are better, obviously, 1451 01:17:43,720 --> 01:17:47,559 Speaker 2: the players are better, and just that whole presentation on 1452 01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:51,679 Speaker 2: TV is great. But let's be honest here, in person, 1453 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:55,840 Speaker 2: nothing comes close to college football. Like it's not even 1454 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 2: like you could say whatever you want about the NHL 1455 01:17:58,080 --> 01:18:00,320 Speaker 2: and all that. Yeah, the NHL is fun, like hockey 1456 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:03,280 Speaker 2: is great to see live and in person, the atmosphere 1457 01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:06,960 Speaker 2: at a college football game, nothing comes close. Not the NFL, 1458 01:18:07,439 --> 01:18:09,120 Speaker 2: not Major League Baseball, nothing. 1459 01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:12,840 Speaker 8: I've been to the Georgia, Oklahoma Rose bull Back in 1460 01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 8: twenty seventeen. That's the greatest sporting of that I've ever 1461 01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:16,000 Speaker 8: been to in my life. 1462 01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:19,640 Speaker 2: It's awesome. And look, in other sports you've got venues 1463 01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:21,640 Speaker 2: which make like Look, you go to a game at 1464 01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:25,240 Speaker 2: Wrigley Field, you know that there's nothing like that. But 1465 01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:29,879 Speaker 2: as far as pound for pound, different games, different matchups, 1466 01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:33,040 Speaker 2: different rivalries. The atmosphere for a college football game in 1467 01:18:33,080 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 2: the fall is awesome. It's tough to beat that. 1468 01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:39,800 Speaker 8: Speaking of rivalries, real quick, here, eighteen minutes after going 1469 01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:42,840 Speaker 8: on sale, Caitlin Clark's Indiana Fever All Star Jersey sold 1470 01:18:42,880 --> 01:18:46,519 Speaker 8: out entirely, while on the other side, Angel Reese had 1471 01:18:46,520 --> 01:18:49,759 Speaker 8: her double double record streaks snapped earlier today against the Liberty. 1472 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:54,240 Speaker 8: Watching it happen, the Liberty triple team durun the final 1473 01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:56,920 Speaker 8: play to stop. Yeah, I'm getting that double. 1474 01:18:57,360 --> 01:18:59,800 Speaker 2: So hey, you know what, if you want a stat pad, 1475 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:02,920 Speaker 2: that's what happens, all right, that is the treatment you get. 1476 01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:07,880 Speaker 2: I look the whole conversation surrounding we're joking during the break, 1477 01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:11,880 Speaker 2: like there's a lot of these stuff surrounding the WNBA, 1478 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:14,000 Speaker 2: which I just am not a fan of. Like I'm 1479 01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:18,360 Speaker 2: just not it's not my thing. But we openly root 1480 01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:21,320 Speaker 2: against Caitlyn Clark on this show only when it applies 1481 01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:23,759 Speaker 2: to Iowa Sam. Other than that, I love Caitlin Clark, 1482 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 2: I love the game, the eyeball She's brought to the sport. 1483 01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:31,080 Speaker 2: But Iowa Sam is so obnoxious as a fan that 1484 01:19:31,160 --> 01:19:33,680 Speaker 2: it makes us root against him, like it makes us 1485 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:36,439 Speaker 2: want to root against him. So with that being said, 1486 01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:38,720 Speaker 2: you know, if you are one of those people that 1487 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:40,760 Speaker 2: got your hands on one of those jerseys, I would 1488 01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:44,160 Speaker 2: recommend taking it to eBay, getting a hold of Iowa 1489 01:19:44,240 --> 01:19:46,360 Speaker 2: Sam because if you know what a fanboy he is 1490 01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:49,960 Speaker 2: for the Iowa Hawk guys, he will pay top dollar 1491 01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:53,240 Speaker 2: for any of those jerseys. They don't got to be autographed, nothing, 1492 01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:55,720 Speaker 2: He'll shell out some cash for it.
