00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Welcome to the program already in progress. It's

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: our two on There's Tuesday Dan and the Dannet's Dan

4
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: Patrick Show. It is Happy Franchise Tag Day. Probably not

5
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,439
Speaker 1: going to have too many guys who were tagged today,

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: but this is the start of the possibility of having

7
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: a star player tagged age seven seven three. DP show

8
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: email address, DPA dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at

9
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: DP show. We'll dive into the Dak Prescott situation coming up.

10
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 1: Is it going to be short term? Is it going

11
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: to be long term for the Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott. Also,

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: where there's chatter is their smoke and therefore is there

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,639
Speaker 1: fire with Russell Wilson? Does russ one out of Seattle?

14
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: And Michael Silver from the NFL Network says that at

15
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: least ten teams have inquired about the availability of Russell Wilson.

16
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what's real and what's not. And just

17
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: because you call doesn't mean as we found out with

18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: Cars and Wentz, teams could have called. That didn't mean

19
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: that they were offering. There was only one offer and

20
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: that came from the Colts. But you have that report

21
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: out there now that teams are calling the Seattle Seahawks.

22
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: You know, if Seattle just says, look, it's silly, We're

23
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: not don't call. We're not trading him. They haven't said anything.

24
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 1: The Texans have said we're not trading Deshaun Watson, but

25
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 1: that hasn't stopped teams from calling. Mclevitn pulled question from

26
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: the first hour, who would you rather trade for Russell

27
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: Wilson or DeShawn Watson? Seventy want to clear your voice, sorry,

28
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: seventy percent would rather trade for Russell Wilson than DeShawn? Really? Yeah,

29
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: I know Russ is going to be thirty three in November,

30
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: and what do I have to give up to get

31
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson? I got eight years difference between Deshaun Watson

32
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson, and I know Russ is going to

33
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. Deshaun is just starting out his career.

34
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: But am I giving up three number ones for Russell

35
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: Wilson if he's available? Deshaun, what's he going to cost you?

36
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: DeShawn might be four number ones and a player too.

37
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: Deshaun's going to cost you an awful lot more. But

38
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: he's twenty five already under contract, and Russ has one

39
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: more year and then an option year and then after that.

40
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: I can't imagine at age thirty four that he's still

41
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 1: going to be Seattle's quarterback. All right, you can dial

Speaker 1: box that slides out in the bottom right corner and

55
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: you will be good to go. Lebron James said something

56
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: interesting last night after the Lakers lost to the Wizards

57
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: in overtime. He said he doesn't buy into the quote

58
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: narrative that he needs to need more rest. He has

59
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 1: played in every game. He played forty three minutes last night,

60
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: continuing a trend that we've seen lately with LA trying

61
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: to adjust without Anthony Davis. Since the start of February,

62
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: Lebron has averaged over thirty eight minutes a game, that's

63
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: the most in the NBA during that span. At age

64
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: thirty six, Lebron, more than anybody else, is aware of

65
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: how these narratives work. Once they get started, then they

66
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: take on a life of their own because it's Lebron,

67
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: it's the Lakers, and if you want clicks, that's what

68
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: you do. You talk about Lebron the minutes and the

69
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: team is now lost three in a row. The Lakers

70
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: are struggling, and nobody wants to talk about how the

71
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: season has ebbs and flow, because it does every year now.

72
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: Teams will dip for a little while and then all

73
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden they come back. But you know, the

74
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: other NBA narratives don't get anywhere near the attention. Is

75
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: anybody talking about the Utah Jazz today except for US

76
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: no locally in Utah. Yes, they are the best three

77
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: point shooting team. They have the most three pointers, they're

78
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: on a record pace, they are undefeated at home. They

79
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: got the best record in the NBA. Nobody talking about

80
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz. You're talking about the Celtics and the

81
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: mess that they are right now, the Miami Heat. Are

82
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: they going to make the playoffs? Is Joe lmb the MVP? Like,

83
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: we don't talk when you talk about the NBA, you

84
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: talk about Lebron, you talk about the Lakers. And that's

85
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 1: why this is a bigger deal, whether it is or not.

86
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: But Lebron knows his body. Lebron is one of the

87
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: first athletes who invested a million dollars in his body.

88
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: This isn't the eighties where guys took the summer off

89
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,679
Speaker 1: and didn't do anything and probably drank beer and smoked heaters.

90
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: Lebron is one of the best conditions conditioned athletes we've

91
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: ever had, and he's got a team around him to

92
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: get him ready. But does he play more minutes than

93
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: you would like? Yes? You know, would I like him

94
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: to play less minutes? Yes, But the more he plays,

95
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: he's in great shape. He wants to play. You know,

96
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 1: we get caught up in well, you've got to have

97
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: load management, all right. Kawhi Leonard, one of the great

98
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: athletes in the world and he's got to have load management.

99
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: Why well, because he said, so, I got this injury

100
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: here in load management. Okay, I mean imagine if we

101
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: all did that in our daily lives, like we had

102
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: to have load management. Go into your boss and say

103
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: that I certainly could use Wednesday off a little load

104
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: management here. Yeah, good luck with that. You know what,

105
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: while you're at it, take Wednesday and Thursday and Friday,

106
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: you know what, just take the rest of you know,

107
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 1: your your life off here and these back to backs

108
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: coming into work. But we created this load management nonsense,

109
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: and Lebron's going the other way. But Lebron wants to

110
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 1: say to everybody, those guys need load management. I don't

111
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: kawhis a lot younger than me. I don't need that

112
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 1: Greek freak, got a limit his minutes. Don't have to

113
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: do that with me. Lebron wants you to know that

114
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: he is going to be there. You know, you got

115
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: somebody who was actually going to be there. If you

116
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 1: buy a ticket or you're gonna watch a game, Lebron's

117
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: gonna be there. I mean, how refreshing, It's wow, it's

118
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,799
Speaker 1: novel he wants to play. We're gonna critic Kim because

119
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: he wants to play. And the narrative here, First of all,

120
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: can we get rid of narrative? Narrative in optics? Can

121
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: we get rid of those? And I'm guilty of it.

122
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: But the narrative here, here's Lebron James on the narrative

123
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: that he should be rested. This whole narrative of you know,

124
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: Lebron needs more arrest or I shook more arrest of

125
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,559
Speaker 1: I should take time here has become a lot bigger

126
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: than what it actually really is. I've never talked about it.

127
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: I don't talk about it. I don't believe in it.

128
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: You know, we all need more restor. I mean, this

129
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: is a fast turnaround from last season, and we all

130
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: wish we could have more rest. But you know, I'm

131
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: here to work and I'm here to punch my clock

132
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: in and me being able to be available to my

133
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: teammates is more important than anything. Okay, he knows his body,

134
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: and good for him. He wants to play. Yes, mclovin,

135
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: I was actually going to pitch a poll question should

136
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: the Lakers force him to sit down? I know that's

137
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: contrary to what you just said, but I mean, eighty

138
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: I don't know how long the schedule is. Who is

139
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: going to force him to sit down? The coach? Really, really,

140
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: are you suggestee a new paradigm where Lebron is like,

141
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: I've thrown paradigm and said a narrative by the way,

142
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: and that's okay. We can start with paradigm and then

143
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: we'll get tired of it. But I was gonna say

144
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: that as a poll question, if you were the Lakers,

145
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: would you ask Lebron maybe take a rest here or there.

146
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: I'm sure they have conversations about this. I would hope

147
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: they have conversations where they just sit around and say, hey,

148
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: how do you feel and if you want to limit

149
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: in your minutes? Yeah, okay. Here's case in point. The

150
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: other night, the Clippers will playing and Paul George is

151
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: on a minutes restriction, very very specific minutes restriction, so

152
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: less than three minutes to go in a game they

153
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: could have won. They pulled Paul George out as if

154
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: those three minutes somehow somewhere are going to benefit the

155
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,079
Speaker 1: Clippers down the road when we go, you know, in

156
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: in late May, when we go, you remember when Paul

157
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: George took those three minutes off, he looks so hold

158
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: fresh right now. It's silly. It just you're you're meant

159
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: to play, you want to play. I don't want you

160
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: to play when you're hurt. If it's a meaningless game,

161
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: or you're getting blown out, or you're blowing somebody out,

162
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: then then I understand that. Yeah, Seed, I don't know.

163
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: He strikes me as a kind of guy who might

164
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 1: like to be load managed. Give me extra five minutes

165
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: off here, I'm good. Who Lebron or No, Paul George, Well,

166
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: you know, I give him credit. He's played better this year.

167
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: He's on a mission. I can't play all these minutes.

168
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: What are you crazy? Yes, Paul. It's like when you

169
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: have a three year lease on a car at twelve

170
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: thousand miles a year and you realize about two and

171
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: a half years in that you're about to go over

172
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 1: and you're driving down the roads like every mile I

173
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: go is twenty five cents, and you're just freaking out.

174
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: You're like, you know, I'm gonna walk to work today,

175
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: It's only a mile. That's kind of what the NBA.

176
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a bike, yes, McLevin. The problem with

177
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: Paul George's load management strategy he wants a load manage

178
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: at the middle of June. You know, so I see

179
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: what you did. Ok. Yeah, I'm like Seaton, like he

180
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 1: got me so frustrated. Last shot there, all right, a

181
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: little shot there. I think the average IBA fan is

182
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: still mad at Paul George for how he played last

183
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: year in the playoffs. I know that sounds weird, like

184
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: that would be mad. No, no, No No, Clippers fans, NBA

185
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: fans don't care about Paul George. They care if players

186
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: load manage and I can't play back to back or

187
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: you know, these are the most conditioned athletes that we

188
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: have in the world and they can't go back to back,

189
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: and you know, that's what fans care about. I would

190
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 1: think it's refreshing. Lebron wants to play. He's always wanted

191
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: to play. Uh you know, then he then he misses

192
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: a free throw last night, or he came up short

193
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: on a jumper, and then you hear he's getting tired.

194
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: He might be, but he has to play. In his mind.

195
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis isn't there. This is what I would love

196
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: to hear some of the other Laker players go, you know,

197
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: maybe we should step up a little bit here. How

198
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 1: about how about the depth on this team. How about

199
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: those guys step up a little bit that would be

200
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: really beneficial to Lebron. Yeah, Poem, there's been three players

201
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: in NBA history to play more than sixty thousand career minutes.

202
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: Lebron James just went over sixty thousand career minutes for postgame,

203
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: you know, postseason and regular season. Do you want to

204
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: know the other two? Yes, I do. I think you'll

205
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: know them unless you want to guess one. You'll know

206
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: for sure. I was gonna so sixty thousand. I was

207
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 1: gonna guess just for longevity. Kareem correct, he's the all

208
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: time leader at sixty six thousand plus minutes. The second one,

209
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: you'll go, oh yeah, Karl Malone, that's right, sixty two

210
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: thousand and seven. Lebron's gonna pass both those guys in

211
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 1: the next year and a half. And Lebron's gonna do

212
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: it in eighteen years. Kobe had less minutes in twenty years.

213
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 1: He's got twenty. Lebron his twenty thousand career minutes more

214
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: than Michael Jordan as of right now. I was waiting

215
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,839
Speaker 1: for Jordan to somehow be bold. Yeah, anytime you bring

216
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: up Lebron, you gotta bring up Michael Jordan's Michael never

217
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: had load manager. You know, yes, what it's funny that

218
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: it feels like Jordan lebron Approach had eighty two games

219
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: the same way. Like Jordan, I could have sat and

220
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: he never did. Right, It's like they don't want to

221
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: come off almost but it wasn't a concept back then.

222
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: Oh so no one. Well, yeah, but I remember when

223
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: I was a kid, Doctor j would have the end

224
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: end of season flew and skip three or four games

225
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: at the end of the year. He's a little older.

226
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and he had bad knees. Yeah, but I

227
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: don't these guys want to play. I'm thankful when guys

228
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: went like Steph Curry is playing against the Knicks tonight,

229
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 1: or at least I hope he is, because there's no

230
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 1: other reason to watch that game. I want to we

231
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 1: want to see the Stars play now, you want you know,

232
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: James Harden to me, took on too much of Houston's offense,

233
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: and he would always get tired in the postseason. He

234
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: needed somebody to say, I gotta limit your minutes here.

235
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: But he wanted to lead the NBA and scoring like

236
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: he had, you know, individual goals and maybe they got

237
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: in the way of team goals there, but he always

238
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: seemed like he ran out of gas. In the postseason,

239
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 1: Lebron doesn't appear to run out of gas, Like when's

240
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: the last time? Where you go? Man? He looks really slow,

241
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: He looks lethargic. He wants to play. Now. Do I

242
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 1: want him to play that many minutes? No, I'd prefer

243
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: he didn't during a February stretch. But he needs to play,

244
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: wants to play, and look, I applaud him an athlete

245
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: who wants to play every single game. I mean when

246
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: we were growing up, and it's a different era, but

247
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: these guys took great pride and ying in all eighty

248
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: two games. Okay, healthy scratch. We didn't even know what that.

249
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: We'd be like, what, what's right way? What's again? An inch?

250
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: It's a healthy scratch. Oh well, you know it gets

251
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: some lotion. But this started with the Spurs. This is

252
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: great Popovitch. He's the one who said, hey, we're going

253
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: to Miami, but I'm gonna leave my star players behind.

254
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, we're like what what? But

255
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: he said, I got arrest my players, then they got

256
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: fined commissioner. But Pop succeeded in what he wanted to do.

257
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: But that was where he was saying. You know, Tim

258
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 1: Duncan at age thirty five, they not making that road

259
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: trip there gonna get him a little time off. I

260
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: don't like it, but I understand it. You're trying to win.

261
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: These teams that are trying to win a championship. Yeah. Po.

262
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: Not only did Michael Jordan play eighty two games every

263
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: year of his career, he never left a game at

264
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: any time during any game he played forty minute th

265
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: he did. Yeah, just checked. Actually, he played eighty two

266
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: games every season he was healthy, just a couple of

267
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: years where he had the broken foot or baseball and

268
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: there's another season way in knee and I don't care

269
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: about Jordan. Will Chamberlain would play just about every minute

270
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: of every game. Never fouled out of a game in

271
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: his career. You say hypothetic, like generally think. I think

272
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: a season that Wilt averaged over forty eight minutes per game.

273
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: That's like average, like a great point average of four

274
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: point one, yes, when it's only four yes. Yeah. In

275
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: his third year in the league, sixty one sixty two

276
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: wild played every game and average forty eight and a

277
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: half minutes a game, even though the games are forty

278
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: eight minutes long. Guests a couple of our times. Yeah,

279
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: so the Lakers have dropped three in a row, and

280
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: they got the Utah Jazz coming up next, right, yeah Wednesday? Yeah,

281
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 1: oh boy. Yeah, all of a sudden, you're taking an

282
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: interest in the Utah Jazz, right, Nick Levin, Well, it's

283
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: just they should beat the Lakers, right, the shorthanded Lakers

284
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: do I have to root against the Jazz now just

285
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: to fulfill this whole thing. Oh, I think Utah fans

286
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: think you are. Yeah, it's it's should we start look

287
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: at them as a real NBA contender. I know you're

288
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: like probably the only one who watched me. Why not

289
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: because they've never done it in the playoffs. That's why

290
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: one of the reasons that I'm not so into the

291
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: story yet. Yeah, but we looked at the Bucks is

292
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: legitimate contenders. They didn't do anything. They were great during

293
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: the regular season. There's certain teams that care about the

294
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: regular season and they're built for the regular season, and

295
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: then they're teams that are built for the postseason. I

296
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: don't know if Utah is Yeah, that was a great

297
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: series with Denver last year. But you know, I don't

298
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're big time. But those teams

299
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: like Denver, I used to think about that too, but

300
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: they did pretty good. Yeah, yeah, Paul, I think the

301
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: Jazz lack a focal point. Yeah, Donovan Mitchell's pretty famous,

302
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: Rudy Gobert is pretty famous, now infamous. But they don't

303
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: have one player that's a lightning rod. They have a

304
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: bunch of good players, a whole bunch of good players,

305
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: but they don't have that one guy. Like even Mbid

306
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: and Simmons are kind of lightning rods for topics, or

307
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,679
Speaker 1: Kemba Walker a little bit or j Jason Tatum. They

308
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 1: have very good players, but no, you know, identifiable stars.

309
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: But how many tune in factors do we have in

310
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: the NBA where you go, I'm watching that game. I'm

311
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: going out of my way to find that. Yeah, mcclub,

312
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: that's a great question. I mean lebron Zion jumped to mine,

313
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: dodge it, Luca, Trey Young, that's the other one. But

314
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: I don't know if everyone non hardcore fans are interested

315
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: in Trey Young. Damian Lillard is fun to watch, but

316
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: the NBA, you know, for a league that's built on

317
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: individual stars. How many how many times do you go, oh,

318
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 1: I'm going to tune in to watch that game, Like,

319
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: if the Lakers weren't playing the Wizards, I wouldn't have

320
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: watched the game. If it's the Wizards, Like the Nets,

321
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: you're going to tune in just to watch those three

322
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: and how that all works out? I guess. But are

323
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: you watching Jason Tatum anymore in Boston? No, I'm watching

324
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 1: you know, LaMelo ball, But you know, I'm sure I'm

325
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: not in the majority here. Yeah, mcclub. He might be

326
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: on that list soon though, if if you keep talking,

327
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 1: I mean, well, they want him to go to the

328
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: All Star Game. They want him somehow involved in the

329
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: All Star Game because they know that he's a he's

330
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: a thing, he's a he's a big deal. But you

331
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: got ten guys maybe in the NBA, did you tune

332
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 1: in to watch the Greek free And the answer is

333
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: probably not. You didn't mention Harden, Durant, Kyrie, Well, no,

334
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 1: I said the Nets right right, or individually or any

335
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: of them. Well, the fact that they're all together. You

336
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: just tune in for the nts and you get three

337
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: three for one but if Kyrie was playing elsewhere, no Durant,

338
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: maybe Harden for me. Yes, zach Levine's playing well zactly. Yeah,

339
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 1: but you're not tuning in for zach Levine and he's

340
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: not a member of the tribe. You keep things jewish.

341
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: That shows why do you bring him up? Have we

342
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,360
Speaker 1: confirmed that zach Levine? Is he a member of the tribe?

343
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 1: Do you want gonna email the team with just that question?

344
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: Ye've done? Oh? Well, I know, Pauli. Pauli always sends

345
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: Fritzie on these missions where it's like, you know, he's

346
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: a suicide mission. Two weeks ago we emailed a Jazz

347
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: for a confirmation of Dotto A Mitchell's height, and now

348
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: we didn't have to have him on a show, just

349
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: a height. Yes, Vick, see you hit a big three

350
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 1: yesterday for the My Washington Wizards out of Israel. Denny Avida.

351
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: I liked him coming into the draft. I told you

352
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: about the guy I know. Actually yeah, and his name

353
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: should be Denny A three. H Oh. I don't think

354
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: he's done a ton this show. He goes, No, he hasn't.

355
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: That's a stretch, that's a reach, that's a todd That's

356
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: why I'm yeah, that's why I'm going n What did

357
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: you send me? Oh? I sent you. I wrote a

358
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: green cart. Scene had a great idea earlier today about

359
00:19:55,480 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: oh No. I decided to because I loved the idea.

360
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: Do you trust Seaton? I do trust. He could have

361
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: been misleading you, you could be getting I thought he

362
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: was genuine when he said that looks like something up

363
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 1: your reality greeting card for franch I just want to

364
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: say I stand by my idea. I think my idea

365
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 1: was great. That was something that like Fallon would do. Okay,

366
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: the idea Todd should do. Because we were saying, it's

367
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: a national franchise tag day. I said Todd should do

368
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 1: a line of greeting cards. Like it was like, you know,

369
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: like Valentine's Day, it's a made up holiday, but you

370
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: gotta buy the card. Well it's so it's franchise tag day.

371
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: And if you were going to give someone a greeting

372
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,159
Speaker 1: card like and this is how he told them they

373
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 1: were being franchised. These are the things that uh greeting

374
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 1: cards would have. And this was a great idea. It

375
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: is a great idea. It really is. No, no, no,

376
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: you don't want It's a great idea after Todd reads

377
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 1: it and then we go that wasn't I mean, I

378
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: pulled off my end of the market day. That's exactly

379
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: my point. I can't. It's a good idea, whether Todd

380
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: can execute it as a whole other story. Okay, I

381
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 1: want to talk to Albert Breer. He'll join us coming up,

382
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: and I'm want to ask him a couple of things. Uh,

383
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: he's got some more details about cards and why is

384
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: there a chance that Russell Wilson is available? Uh? So

385
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 1: we'll we'll talk to him coming. Yes, we love yesterday.

386
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 1: When he did the good wedding names, he had a

387
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: good like Baker McBride, you actually said it the other

388
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: guys did you write those? I didn't think he wrote it.

389
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: I can't. Did I anything remotely good. He's always said

390
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 1: your brother must have sent you an email or something.

391
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:25,919
Speaker 1: You read that from somebody said that to you. We done. Now,

392
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: we'll take a break and then you can do your greeting.

393
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 1: I would like that. I hope it lives up to

394
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: the idea that I can close the deal. Never does.

395
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: Seaton is setting you up. This is the guy who

396
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 1: hates your much. You should see Seaton's face when you

397
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,360
Speaker 1: start reading here, Paul, he's not saying a word. When

398
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: you see cars about the crash, you just sit there

399
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: and watch. Yes, I'm setting taught up for success. Oh,

400
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,800

401
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 1: holiday coming up with sports related names? Are we doing

402
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: Saint Patty's Day? Val Valentine's Day already happened. We could

403
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 1: do something to pass over Easter? Rely, No, but I'm

404
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: trying to think it's anything before that. But I know

405
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: we had like the Cliff Branch and the Charles Oakley.

406

00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: I do. I don't know what that's all about. I

431
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: just a weird, strange thing. You've always got that beard.

432
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: Tell you I'll shave like five six in the morning,

433
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: and then you tell me about before noon. Ye, what's

434
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: going on? You should shave once in a while, you

435
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: get like a twelve o'clock shadow. It's really strange. Did

436
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,439
Speaker 1: you shave today? I may have shaved today. There is

437
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: no way in the world. It just grows. I don't

438
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 1: know what's going on. I just it's just something. I think.

439
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,560

00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: incredible human being. But I never thought I'd be engaged

456
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 1: as somebody who threw balls for reality, Like I never

457
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: thought as a little girl. I was like, yeah, when

458
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: I grew up. I'm gonna marry someone who who throws balls. Yeah,

459
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,719
Speaker 1: all right. So Shylene Woodley the actress, she was in

460
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: The Descendants with George Clooney. Was she in h Pretty

461
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 1: Little Liars, Big Little One? We're all trying to act

462
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,479
Speaker 1: like we don't watch all her movies Divergent, the Divergent series,

463
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 1: a tween er sci fi. Thank you mclovin. Yes you

464
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: have something to say. She strikes me as the kind

465
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 1: of person who says sports ball to be ironic, or

466
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: she might say I'm not really into that sports ball thing,

467
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: or she might say like home base or something like

468
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: that instead of home played. Yes, but I'll bet you

469
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers loves that he doesn't have to talk football

470
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: at all or sports at all, because he doesn't even

471
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: want to talk football. I bet he's a breaking down

472
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: cover twos with her. Yes, it's Packers one seventeen thirty

473
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: like that kind of thing. Or is this? Uh? Was

474
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: that the problem with Danna ka Patrick and Olivia Munn

475
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: that they wanted to break down like the Bears secondary

476
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: and coverage that he might be facing. Maybe that's the problem.

477
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 1: Shaley Woodley doesn't worry about those things. Uh Albert Brier,

478
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: one of our favorite senior NFL reporter, lead content strategists

479
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 1: for the Monday Morning and Quarterback and Back on the program.

480
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: We haven't had Yawn since the Carson Wentz deal. If

481
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: I would have said, that's the only offer the Eagles

482
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: are going to get for Carson Wentz, what would you

483
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,239
Speaker 1: have said? Well, first of off, Pearloff seems to have

484
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: a lot of background on this, Shaleen Hume. I hadn't

485
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: heard of her before. Yeah, yeah, Dan, I wouldn't have

486
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 1: been surprised, Like, I just think this is how the

487
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: league abuse him right now. And you know, when the

488
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 1: Eagles gave the agents, you know, permission to go and

489
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: seek a trade at the beginning of January, that's the

490
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 1: agents found. And you know, the the Eagles did get

491
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 1: calls after the Matthew Stafford deal, but I think at

492
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,640
Speaker 1: that point it was pretty clear like that Carson Wentz

493
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: wanted to go to Indianapolis, and any other team that

494
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: was involved, even Tangentile, it was sort of looking at

495
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 1: it like I don't want to invest in the guy,

496
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 1: but if you want to give him away, like we'll

497
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: take a flyer on him. So I just think what

498
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 1: we saw on Carson Wentz. Like the league always lets

499
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: us know, right Like, I feel like the league let

500
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 1: us know what they thought of Matthew Stafford. You had

501
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: the Panthers, you had Washington offering a first first round

502
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 1: picks plus something else. You had the Rams go the

503
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: extra mile to get him. The league let us know

504
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 1: what they thought of Matthew Stafford. And I think in

505
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: the other direction, we see now what the league thinks

506
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 1: of Carson Wentz coming off of his twenty twenty season.

507
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: Were the Eagles trying to create a market that wasn't there. Yes, yeah,

508
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: I think they did everything they could to try to

509
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: get the most that they could, and you know, in

510
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,439
Speaker 1: the end, the Bears and Colts were there. The Bears

511
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: never put in an offer, and I think, you know,

512
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: huge piece of that was it was a number of factors.

513
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if the personality fit would have been

514
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: great there, and so if you have that, plus the

515
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 1: guy doesn't want to necessarily come to Chicago, he'd rather

516
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: go to Indianapolis, you can sort of add A to

517
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: B and figure out why they never put an offer

518
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,239
Speaker 1: on the table. So, you know, I think that this

519
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: is probably the best is the best conclusion for Carson

520
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 1: Wentz that he winds up, you know, in Indianapolis because

521
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: you know, his old offensive coordinator, Frank rk is there,

522
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 1: a guy he was very close to on the Eagle

523
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: staff the last few years. Press Taylor is there, and

524
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,679
Speaker 1: those guys know how to get the most out of him. Um,

525
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: So you know, I think, you know, we're maybe the

526
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 1: rest of us saw Carson Wentz as like, well, you know,

527
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: maybe you can get him back to what he was

528
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen. And you know he still was, you know,

529
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 1: a guy who has all this talent as a former

530
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: second overall pick. The league was sort of looking at

531
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 1: him as somebody who right now is broken and wasn't

532
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 1: sure if he could be fixed or the Eagles shatted quarterback. No,

533
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: I think that I'm gonna I'm gonna put a caveat

534
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: on that and saying that it wouldn't shock me if

535
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 1: we get to May first and Jalen Hurts is the

536
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 1: clear cut starter. It also wouldn't shock me if we

537
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 1: get to May first and their serious competition on the roster,

538
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: and that could come with a veteran But I think

539
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: it's more likely that the Eagles do everything they can

540
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: to try and get the best information they possibly can

541
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: on the three quarterbacks who could potentially follow to them.

542
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: That's Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, and Justin Fields. And I

543
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: have it on good authority that they are going to

544
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: go through that process with each of those guys, hold

545
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: them up against Jalen Hurts, and make a decision whether

546
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: or not to use the sixth overall pick on a quarterback.

547
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: So I can tell you right now that they haven't

548
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: made a decision that they're going to take a quarterback

549
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: at sixth overall, in part because they don't know who's

550
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: going to be there and they haven't gone through that

551
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: process yet. But they also have not made the decision

552
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: we're going forward with Jalen Hurts and we're going to

553
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: take a player to another position at sixth overall. They're

554
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: very much going to look at those three quarterbacks. And

555
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: it makes sense too too, Dan, I mean this, I

556
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: mean Howie Roseman has been there twenty one years. This

557
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: is only the third time that they've had a pick

558
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: in the top ten that they were slotted to have,

559
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: like the one steal they traded up for. But in

560
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: Howie Roseman's first year they had the sixth overall pick.

561
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: In twenty and thirteen and eighth the fourth overall pick.

562
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: Were the only two times previous to this one that

563
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 1: they had a top ten pick while Howie Rosens been there.

564
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: Do you think Russell Wilson is being shopped or wants

565
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: to be shopped. I think the Seahawks may be sending

566
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: him a little bit of a message, you know. And

567
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: I think the Seahawks were real happy with how he

568
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: handled that period of a few days. And I think

569
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: part of it was on your show, right, you know.

570
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: I sort of view this as like he sort of

571
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: piggybacked on what happened with Aaron Rodgers. Were Aaron Rodgers?

572
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: To me, what Aaron Rodgers did in the twenty four

573
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 1: hours after the NFC title game was looked through the

574
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: other three conference finalists, saw the Bills, went and got

575
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: Stephan Digs for Josh Allen, saw how aggressive the Bucks

576
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: were putting around, putting people around Tom Brady, how aggressive

577
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: the Chiefs were putting people around Patrick Mahomes. And I

578
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 1: think in a way it was Aaron Rodgers taking public

579
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 1: some of the frustration that he may have had in

580
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: the past on how aggressive the packers have been and

581
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: then I think, you know, that kind of gave Russell

582
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: Wilson or to try and do the same thing, which

583
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 1: I think really really, you know, like privately angered some

584
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 1: people in the Seahawks organization. And so yeah, I think

585
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: taking calls on Russell Wilson's way different than trading him.

586
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: And taking calls on Russell Wilson could be sending him

587
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,479
Speaker 1: a message like hey, listen, like you know, this is

588
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: this is a this is going to be a partnership

589
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 1: and if you aren't going to hold up your end

590
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: of the bargain, like we aren't afraid to go and

591
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: dip our toes in that water either. Yeah, I think

592
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: it was Um, I think there's more to it. I

593
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: think it was calculated on Russ's part. Yeah, i'd agree

594
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: with they knew. And then you know, when I talked

595
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: to a source had said, you know that this relationship

596
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: can't last, it's not sustainable, Like that was to add

597
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 1: to what Russ who uncharacteristically said this about the Seahawks.

598
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: And you know, once he opened the door, I realized

599
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: he was opening the door to welcome me in to

600
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: ask questions about this. So like here's the one thing.

601
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 1: I would say, there's a lot of history there, like

602
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: there is. I mean, you look at it, the two

603
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: contract negotiations did get a little sideways before they did

604
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: deals right, and then you have the history going back

605
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: to fourteen, twenty fifteen, you know when they were contending

606
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: for when they won the Super Bowl in twenty thirteen,

607
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: and how the defensive players there felt about Russell. So

608
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: that's part of the history. And you've had Russell kind

609
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 1: of grumble about the offensive line in the past. This

610
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: isn't the first time that's happened in the past, So

611
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: that's part of the history. And so yeah, I think

612
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: there's always been sort of like this tension, and that's

613
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: the way Pete Carroll built his program. If you look

614
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: at the way that it was when they were at

615
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: their best, there was definitely tension in that building. I

616
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: think there's always been sort of this lingering, underlying tension

617
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: between Wilson and the Seahawks. And like, does that resolve

618
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: itself with him being traded out of town? I don't

619
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: think so right now. I don't think it will happen

620
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: this year, Like, does it eventually mean he's wearing another

621
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 1: uniform before he's done playing football that I could definitely see. Yeah,

622
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: he's Albert Brewer's senior NFL reporter. Joining is this situation

623
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: with Dak Prescott. I don't know if Jerry Jones stumbled

624
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: into something because this wasn't orchestrated. But he might just

625
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: franchise Dak and say, let me see if you come

626
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: back from the ankle injury and if we don't make

627
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 1: the playoffs. I got an easy out here. And I

628
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: not that this is what he designed two years ago

629
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: or less than two years ago. But does Jerry want

630
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 1: to sign him up long term or does he want

631
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: to see him, you know, perform another year. I think

632
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: the injury is a factor, you know. I don't know

633
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,479
Speaker 1: he's out of the woods with that either. I mean,

634
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,719
Speaker 1: this isn't an ac hell, you know, and they've got

635
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: an ACL to the point where guys routinely come back

636
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: from it. I do think that the injury is a

637
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 1: factor here. I would say this like I just I

638
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: think at this point, Dak is way past the point

639
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: where any player would in his right mind give the

640
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: team any sort of hometown discount because of everything that

641
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: he's been through and because they didn't do a deal

642
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: after three years, the way a lot of franchise quarterbacks

643
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 1: get deals done after three years, because last year the negotiation,

644
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: you know, was so just kind of back and forth

645
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: and back and forth over the course of the offseason.

646
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 1: I mean now, I mean Dak has incurred thirty two

647
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: games of injury risks since they were eligible to do

648
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 1: a deal. And generally, when players incur that amount of

649
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: injury risk and keep playing on what they feel like

650
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 1: are below market deals, well at that point, the players

651
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: gonna be less willing to do any sort of team

652
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: friendly deal. So you know, now you have to if

653
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,760
Speaker 1: you accept that, you got to look at Dax's for leverage.

654
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 1: Right now they tag him, that's thirty seven million dollars

655
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,879
Speaker 1: lump sum for this year. If they tag him again

656
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 1: next year, Dan, that franchise tag number is over fifty

657
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: two million dollars. So Dak by sitting on his hands

658
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 1: right now, right he can collect thirty seven million dollars

659
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: for this year and then next year he either gets

660
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: free agency at twenty eight years old or he gets

661
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 1: a fifty two million dollar check. Like that's what the

662
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,359
Speaker 1: Cowboys have to beat now. Like, so, if you want

663
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 1: to talk about leverage, the Cowboys have to put something

664
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: in front of Dak Prescott that is better than thirty

665
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,919
Speaker 1: seven million now and either fifty two million or free

666
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: agency next year, and they could going to be tough

667
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: for them to beat that. They could have got a

668
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,359
Speaker 1: bargain if yeah, if they like a two years ago,

669
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: they could have gotten to bargains. So here's the here's

670
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 1: the counter that argument, though, like you get like to

671
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: get a bargain, you go in early and do it

672
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 1: after three years. Right, look at Jared Goff and Carson Wentz.

673
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 1: Are you sold on Dak Prescott that he is not

674
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and Jared Goff. Yeah. I mean, I think

675
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: he had a really good situations first year, and I

676
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: think that he was propped up to some degrees first year,

677
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: which happens with a lot of young quarterbacks. So and

678
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: I think having the number one rushing you know, the

679
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: number one running game in the league, Zeke Elliott won

680
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: the rushing title, you know, as a rookie, all those

681
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 1: different you know, circumstances that played into you know, that

682
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen season. I think you could say to some degree,

683
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 1: Dak was propped up. I think what we saw at

684
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: the beginning of this year before he got hurt was

685
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: significant in that things weren't perfect around him right before

686
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: he got hurt, Like we saw the offensive line issues,

687
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: we saw the running game struggle, we saw the defense

688
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 1: really have problems. And really, to me, what signing a

689
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 1: quarterback to the big second contract is about is Okay,

690
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 1: now you're not going to have the freedom to put

691
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:38,799
Speaker 1: the same level of pieces around him because it's going

692
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 1: to eat up a bunch of year cap space. Can

693
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: he make up the difference? And I think what we

694
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: saw early in the twenty twenty season is that Dak

695
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: is capable of making up the difference because we saw

696
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: it happen in a lot of different ways early in

697
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 1: the year. Now, you know, the obvious thing that's complicating

698
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: this is the injury and whether he comes back and

699
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 1: he's the same guy. But I do think like if

700
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 1: if you're convinced that he is going to be the

701
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: same guy that he was at the beginning of twenty twenty,

702
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: he showed us something that maybe we never saw from

703
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: Jared Goff in LA and we never saw from Carson

704
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 1: Whites in Philadelphia. Always great, Thank you Albert for making

705
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 1: yourself available. We appreciate it you got. That's Albert Breer,

706
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 1: senior NFL reporter, lead content strategist for the Monday Morning Quarterback.

707
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 1: We'll take a break. Fritzie unveils his franchise tag greeting

708
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: card right after this. Why are you Giggles? Thanks for

Speaker 1: stream us live on the Peacock app. Oh Rady, Yeah,

714
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,359
Speaker 1: I don't know what to make of the Russell Wilson situation.

715
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,919
Speaker 1: I think they are real problems. They're real issues there,

716
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 1: and he said it to us. That's where you have

717
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 1: to factor in who is saying it, what do they say,

718
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 1: and who said it. And that's when when Russ was

719
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 1: started talking and I realized that he wanted, he wanted

720
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 1: to go down this road. He opened the door and

721
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: he had a welcome Matt. I mean, he could have

722
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 1: shaken his off. Russ famously doesn't say anything. And then

723
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: I thought, gosh, we got to reach out, you know,

724
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: to somebody. And you know, I was lucky that I

725
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: had somebody who was willing to respond, and I said,

726
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: what do you make of what Russ just said on

727
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:32,959
Speaker 1: my show? And the source said, this isn't sustainable under

728
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 1: the current conditions. It's not sustainable. And that's what the

729
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,319
Speaker 1: Seahawks were really upset about that he sort of went

730
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: public on our show. And then you know that there

731
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: was a source who was backing up some of this

732
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: here and trying to get somebody within the organization or

733
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: Russell's people, anybody willing to go on the record, and

734
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,760
Speaker 1: couldn't do it. Yeah, the sea OUC general managers gunning

735
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,320
Speaker 1: John Schneider. He's a pretty well known guy and he

736
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 1: just signed a contract extension through twenty twenty seven, so

737
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,240
Speaker 1: he's pretty safe. I wonder if he thinks for himself,

738
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 1: this could be an opportunity, this could be opportunity to

739
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,439
Speaker 1: start again and build again. And remember the last time

740
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: he went to two Super Bowls with a quarterback on

741
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 1: a rookie contract and a lot of money to spend

742
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 1: on defense. This team is the opposite. I wonder if

743
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 1: there's a possibility he says, I'll take some calls, and

744
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 1: you know, the door was opened by Russell, not them,

745
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: so they don't catch the heat of shopping. And Michael

746
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: Silver from the NFL network going to have joined us

747
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,439
Speaker 1: next hour. He's the one that came out and said

748
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: there's ten teams, at least ten teams who have called

749
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 1: the Sea Hunks. So I said to Fritzie, called Michael

750
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: Silver and ask him about the calls with Russell Wilson.

751
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: When he'll join us coming up next? All right, Fritzie

752
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 1: has a it's Happy Franchise Tag Day in the NFL,

753
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 1: and Seaton had the great good decent could be bad

754
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:55,359
Speaker 1: idea of Fritzie with a hallmark greeting card for the

755
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: franchise tag day? Is that a fair assessment of how

756
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: we abst And I'm mister passive aggressers. So instead of

757
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: having to talk to the player and their agent personally,

758
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: you send them a card or slip it under their

759
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 1: door or put in their mailbox. All right, So here

760
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 1: is Happy Franchise Tag Day greeting card. It's that time

761
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: of year to make a roster decision. Who's at the

762
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 1: top of their game and who's not playing with precision?

763
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: Not a time to break for lunch or lie on

764
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,879
Speaker 1: the couch and take a nap. We must get our

765
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 1: finances in order and stay under the salary cap. Sometimes

766
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,479
Speaker 1: a player is too valuable or too expensive to pay

767
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: what they wish that aff we can accept our terms,

768
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: or we must tell them they can go fish. In

769
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: the short term, you'll be content, even as happy as

770
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: a clown. But once our agent crunches the numbers, you'll

771
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 1: both eventually frown. You should celebrate what you do have, now,

772
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 1: what you think that's you're worth. So how about we

773
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,920
Speaker 1: lose the attitude and have yourself a rebirth. You've got

774
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: plenty of cash for bling. We'll even throw in some swag.

775
00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:03,919
Speaker 1: Appreciate all you've been given as you accept franchise tag. Well,

776
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 1: I thought he'd write a greeting card, not the night

777
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:11,879
Speaker 1: before Christmas? Okay, the manifesto, Yeah, okay, a creature story, Yeah,

778
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:16,720
Speaker 1: all through the house. Most greeting cards don't have eight pages.

779
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: That's a long card, and they're ready expensive fold and once.

780
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,879
Speaker 1: The average cards like three four bucks these days, probably

781
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 1: about eleven dollars. Three lines. It's leave four lines. Yeah,

782
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was going to be that lengthy,

783
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: but I got a little verse. I got a little excited.

784
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: Is that a word? Sort of adverse. Your adverse took

785
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 1: what I do like the reverse decision. Did you find

786
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: the best Man's speech? I have not found the yet.

787
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: You didn't look, did you know I did? I did

788
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: like that old search of like old emails and stuff

789
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,760
Speaker 1: because I always, you know, flag things and different colors.

790
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 1: I know how much you guys love all the different

791
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: colors of my emails. To try to have something standouts,

792
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: I can find it easier, but I know I have

793
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 1: a written copy in a box in the basement somewhere,

794
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 1: which is not a great Yes. Can I ask you

795
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 1: guys a real question. It's a greeting card question. No,

796
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 1: it's it's my wife's birthday today. I'm excused to give

797
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: a shout out. Do you buy like a sappy card

798
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 1: that says I love you and all this? Or do

799
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 1: you try to hand right into sappy stuff and do

800
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 1: have sort of simple card? Yeah, Sudan m Yeah, I

801
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 1: try to hand right in the sappy thing. I almost

802
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 1: go exclusively with cards that are inappropriate and like my

803
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 1: son can't read. Almost exclusively go with like you're smoking

804
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 1: hot and then say like so happy? You know, Wait,

805
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: you don't put it out on Twitter or Facebook page

806
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 1: or whatever's did that in a single place? Do I

807
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: I do my rock, who's been there for me? I

808
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,720
Speaker 1: have never I'm not on Facebook, I'm not on Twitter.

809
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,879
Speaker 1: But when I see these things, I cringe because all

810
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 1: I have to do is say to my wife what

811
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,360
Speaker 1: I want to say to her, not let me post

812
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 1: it on Facebook. Eighteen years ago today I met my

813
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 1: best friend. Who would have thought on that day what

814
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: happened to just saying Hey, I love you. You're right

815
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 1: next to me, Like you're right next to me. I
