Speaker 1: The Around the NFL Podcast. Hi Dan, Welcome back to

2
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast. My name

3
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: is Dan Hansis, and I am joined by a room

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 1: filled with Hero Rose, Mark Zessler, Colleen Wolf, and Greg Rose.

5
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 1: What's up, boys and woman? I'm alive, Thank God. I know.

6
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: I was worried when I looked at my mentions. I

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: think my family and friends are too. There was and

8
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 1: if you missed Friday show, which shame on you if

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: you did. Um. Colleen was supposed to be on the show,

10
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: was feeling under the weather. Um, so she uh let

11
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: us know she wasn't gonna make it. And maybe Mark,

12
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 1: you mean Greg got a little carried away and wondering

13
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,560
Speaker 1: about how uh serious could be right down uh to

14
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: a eulogy of sorts or a memorialm type scenario. We

15
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: took it too far. I listened back to it. I

16
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: felt like we were trying to honor, you know, what

17
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: she has accomplished up to this point, just in case

18
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: we there was no further beyond the point. Maybe there

19
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: was the if that was the end of Colleen. Yeah,

20
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: we did happen. If something should happen, we want it to,

21
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: of course we would get the scoop. It would be

22
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: our It just should be our news to break. I'm

23
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: glad I'm a news point. My mom did text me

24
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: and she said, is every everything okay with Colleen? And

25
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: then we didn't hear from thanks Mrs Rosenthal. We didn't

26
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: hear it from Colleen for like twenty four hours. And

27
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: then I was like, shoot, she pissed it us. I

28
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: was sick. There was a very large window where there

29
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: was you know, expecting like a sudden rash of tweets

30
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: that night from Colleen or a couple of hours after

31
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: the total Well, I get this like cryptic text from

32
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: Dan and he just says you should listen to the pod.

33
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: And then I was thinking like and then some a

34
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: couple of people tweeted at me like, hey, you could

35
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: get well, you know my wording, but generally you can

36
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: get banged in a big spot. If Colleen actually does kick,

37
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: that would be that would be bad. I would have

38
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: to pull that down. I'm glad you're worried about you.

39
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: That would be the real tragedy there, well, not you,

40
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: not me, I mean the group a group of us

41
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: only honestly, the media group's we're all We've been told

42
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 1: as many times, don't look at yourself as NFL dot Com,

43
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: NFL now, NFL Network. We're all under one umbrella. And

44
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: if we got that story wrong, the NFL got that

45
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,399
Speaker 1: story wrong, and we're happy to say we got it wrong.

46
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: Colleen's alive. I'm here. You haven't gotten rid of me yet. Good.

47
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: Who would have thought? You know, it wasn't Colleen that

48
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: was killed off? But the Oakland Raiders. Nice transitions there,

49
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean that's terrible. But and especially we

50
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: have a lot of fans from Oakland. I'm more I'm

51
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: annoyed about it. Yeah, we're all upset about it. You know,

52
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: we like to consider ourselves kind of a what do

53
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: they call it, like a megaphone, looks like a microphone.

54
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think we're all fans of football and

55
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: and we really pathize with the fans in Oakland because

56
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: that will be the main topic today, what we're talking about.

57
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: The Raiders um are going to Las Vegas as soon

58
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: as twenty nineteen. Could uh. We just did a NFL

59
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: Network live hit on it, and we will talk about

60
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: it in depth today. Today's show, of course, sponsored by

61
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 1: Mr Flames Economics class in the Hague, The Netherlands and uh, yeah,

62
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: so we'll talk about the Raiders the other stuff going

63
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: on in the news, but you know, it all kind

64
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: of pales. I mean, this is a quiet time in

65
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: the calendar. So this annual NFL Owners meeting, this, as

66
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: we talked about on Friday, this was the big story.

67
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: There's a little bunch of you know what, it floats him,

68
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: thank you. I like float Sam that uh, that we

69
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: were talking about, but that we'll be talking about. But

70
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: the main thing is this Raiders situation, and it does suck.

71
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: It doesn't get much bigger than one of the league's

72
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: most iconic franchise is moving to Las Vegas. Of all places,

73
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: it would have been insane to imagine this even as

74
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: a possibility five ten years ago. You would have never

75
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: thought the NFL would even consider it. Yeah, so if

76
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: any team is going to go to Vegas, makes sense

77
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: that it would be the Raiders. But it still stinks

78
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: that you're absolutely right about that, and I think, yeah,

79
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 1: all of us growing up as football fans, if you

80
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: watch like TV or movies and they always have fake

81
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: football teams and those, uh, when you don't have the

82
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: NFL licensing was always like the Las Vegas Renegade Vegas

83
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: outlaw and it's like you never thought that the Las

84
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders. This doesn't make any sense. How did this happen?

85
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: It's like I mentioned on the network k It, it it

86
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: feels like when you're just utterly you're younger and just

87
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: utterly hammered and playing Madden and coming up with the

88
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: most convoluted like city and team combination. It's like, this

89
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: just feels surreal. And the thing is, it's not a surprise.

90
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: We knew this was gonna happen. We knew this was

91
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: in the books, but now that it's happened, it feels

92
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: so bizarre, and it's so awkward for fans that half

93
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: to go to the games now in Oakland for the

94
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 1: next two years before they make the move to Las Vegas.

95
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 1: And it's sort of like, I mean, coming off this sickness,

96
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: maybe I'm just my head is in this space, but

97
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: I feel like for the fans, you can look at

98
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: it like it's kind of dealing with a terminal illness.

99
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 1: So you have a chance to have those two years

100
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,679
Speaker 1: to say everything that you want to say. You can

101
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: say your goodbyes and take your time with it and

102
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: sort of ease yourself off of the team instead of

103
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: having them just suddenly gone in the middle of the

104
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: night and you're left dealing with shock and emotions and feelings.

105
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: You know, now you can just take your time and

106
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: watch the team slip away. You know that that analogy

107
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: is fitting because you know what, you know my big

108
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: takeaway with terminal illnesses? Please it sucks. Yeah, it's a

109
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: fitting analogy if like, right after you're at the bedside

110
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: and you're crying, and you go to the funeral with

111
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: your brothers and you know we're gonna we're all gonna

112
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: miss mom, looking for closure, and then you turn on

113
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: the TV later that fall and you see moms out

114
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: with some other guy. Mom's fine, she's living, she's fine,

115
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: she's happier and making more money. Wait a minute, do

116
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: you feel a little different about the terminal The Raiders

117
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: aren't the The Raiders don't have the terminal illness? Oakland

118
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: as a football city, does Oakland ain't dating another guy?

119
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: Six months later? Oakland's got nothing now zero zip? All right,

120
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: but let's say what Greg was Greg was under what

121
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 1: does the Vegas guy that mom's now you know, going

122
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: to town with explain it? However you want. Uh. You know,

123
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: he's he's muscle he's muscle bound. He's got a big

124
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: tan from all the pool nights, at pool days, at rehab.

125
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: You know, he's got the glasses on. He listens to

126
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: club music and Calvin Harris, Harris, you know, you name him.

127
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: He's listening to these club bangers. And you're back in

128
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: Oakland and you're like, mom is supposed to be dead.

129
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: Now we're getting a little distant. Yeah, but like Vegas

130
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: now has two teams now, they have an NHL franchise

131
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: and an NFL franchise after having zero that Steve Weisman

132
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: in our network kit broke that news to me, did

133
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: anybody else? And anybody else noticed? I didn't know the

134
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: name of the team, so that was news to me.

135
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: I was confused. I was like, is that a minor

136
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: league team that's already there, or is that the hockey

137
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: team that's moving there? Because I do they're starting this year,

138
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: next next NHL season. I didn't Golden Knights, and I

139
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: am from the town of Pearl River, New York. It's

140
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: a cold town, very humble, um, you know, very blue collar.

141
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: It's basically a Springsteen song set to life it's like

142
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: the place. It's the type of place to build the

143
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: Clintons would retire to. All right, Martha's all right, Martha,

144
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,239
Speaker 1: anyway are We were the pro river Pirates and our

145
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: chief rival were the Nanuete Golden Knights, And I didn't

146
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: think the Golden Knights was a name that was gonna

147
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: get a lot of traction. Now it's a professional franchise.

148
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: How are you feeling about this right now that they're

149
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: back in your life again. We actually every October we

150
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: used to battle for the little Brown jug the big

151
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: football game. You know, I don't. I don't have any

152
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: other feelings other than the reference a little brown jug

153
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: in a big spot. I think it's interesting though, that

154
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: the two commissioners that are the most against gambling, you have,

155
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell and Gary Bettman, and now their teams are

156
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas. I think I think it's gonna go

157
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: slower than the country's attitudes towards uh legal marijuana, which

158
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: also is affecting the NFL. And I think it's going

159
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 1: too soon because I think the NFL is going to

160
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: change their their drug policy so it's it's not as

161
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: severe if you get caught smoking weed, but in the

162
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: same way that that's happened around the country faster than

163
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: anyone would have possibly imagined. I think it's going that

164
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: direction with sports gambling. It's a little tougher, it's a

165
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: little longer of a road. But just the fact that

166
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: the NFL is willing to move there, I think is

167
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 1: they see a future where, okay, maybe this can be

168
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: done responsibly. Sports gambling is not that big of a deal.

169
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: The whole rest of the freaking world bets on sports

170
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: in the US, doesn't they bet on it, Like when

171
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: they're going into the stadiums and basically we know that,

172
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: you know all about that. It's just here's anything. They

173
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: were out of turns. They tried. It's easy to just

174
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: rip the Raiders from one angle and say you shouldn't

175
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: have done this, you shouldn't have moved. But they tried

176
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: for a very long time. California's a state is not

177
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 1: into financing gigantically expensive stadiums. They are not, and and

178
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,679
Speaker 1: they basically they ran out of moves. This gives stability

179
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: and a modern stadium to the Raiders. This was the option.

180
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: Let's let's break this down a little bit in terms

181
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: of just like the X is and ohs of the

182
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: announcement today and what happened. So the NFL owners voted

183
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: thirty one to one on Monday the Dolphins, and I'd

184
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: love to know the reason why he released the statement.

185
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: What did Stevie Ross have to say? I kind of

186
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: liked it what he had to say. Actually, Miami was

187
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: the coolest city before with a team. Now got Vegas

188
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: to deal with. Hmmm. I don't think that was the

189
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: contents of the statement, but that's a good That was

190
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: the official statement. He echoed really what we have been

191
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: echoing and I think we're going to continue that that

192
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: that we should keep the fans in mind, that teams

193
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: should do everything possible to stay in their home market.

194
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: That a home that a team like that is a

195
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: public utility and they should have basically try harder that

196
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: that that that keeping making these teams move around or

197
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: letting these teams happen. Three teams in fourteen months is

198
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: bad long term for the NFL. You know, Stephen Ross

199
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: way to be well in. NFL Network insider Ian rapp

200
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 1: Report said on the air before we came up here

201
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: that the kind of the mood of why they down

202
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: voted it was not just the Raiders situation. But like

203
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: you said, the whole thing of we're shifting teams, which

204
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: is terrible for the NFL. It is utterly terribly moves

205
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: in what's seventeen months, fourteen months, uh, including two major

206
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 1: um cities in California. So San Diego loses the charges

207
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: to l A, which I think people are still trying

208
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: to make sense of that. And now Oakland is a

209
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: different situation. Now they go to Vegas and it seemed

210
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: like um that San Diego there was a deal that

211
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: could be made there, and the ownership just decide there

212
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: was more money to be made in Los Angeles. This

213
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: is a little more complicated issue, I think in Oakland

214
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: because it goes going back to the current owner's father.

215
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: They had been trying to build a new stadium in Oakland,

216
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,239
Speaker 1: uh for years and years and years uh and the

217
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: they explored options in Los Angeles that didn't work out,

218
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: and then they look to Vegas and then Nevada lawmakers

219
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,959
Speaker 1: approved seven fifty million of public financing for a new stadium.

220
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: That's a big part of this too, like Bank of

221
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: America another six million. So there's a lot of people

222
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: that were kind of getting out of the era where

223
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: cities are rubbers stamping, or that these teams are are

224
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: forcing almost a hostage situation where they're saying build us

225
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: a stadium or we're leaving team. Cities I feel like

226
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: are spinning up, been getting a backbone and saying no,

227
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: you're the billionaire, do it. But the problem with that

228
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 1: is you could play hardball like that, but you could

229
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: end up like San Diego now Oakland too. It's that's

230
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: why it's such a bad situation. California is essentially a

231
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: small nation and they've got incredible issues. You know, we

232
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: all live here, and if you have kids in the

233
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: school system, it's a disastrous school system in many cities.

234
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: There's so many programs that are underfunded than money voters

235
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: here are they're gonna put money and they're gonna rubber

236
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: stamp money towards things that matter more to the right emilies,

237
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: which is which makes sense. I mean, this country is

238
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: a mass right now. You know what school systems are struggling.

239
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: Las Vegas not exactly on top of things, like they

240
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: just basically cut funding. You know, they cut funding to

241
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: their schools to like increase classizes, and that is a

242
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: drop in the bucket, Like the money that they're taking

243
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: out for schools compared to seven fifty million dollars, so

244
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: that all makes sense to me. It's really just because

245
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: Mark Davis is not like other owners, and I don't

246
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: think the Chargers ownership the Spanuses are like other owners.

247
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: If you Mark Davis wanted to I said it last show,

248
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: like he could find a billionaire in the Bay Area

249
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: that could figure out his own stadium, but they can't

250
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 1: afford it. They can't afford um. Here's what Mark Davis

251
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: had to say at the annual owners meetings when the

252
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: became official that the Raiders were going to Las Vegas.

253
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: My father used to say that the greatness of the

254
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 1: Raiders is in its future, and the opportunity to build

255
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: a world class stadium in the entertainment capital of the

256
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 1: world is one opportunity that will give us an opportunity

257
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: to give us the ability to achieve that greatness. And

258
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 1: then Davis and I will give him at least some

259
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: credit for this. There was some self awareness that maybe

260
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: we haven't seen with some other recent owners about you

261
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: know what this meant for the city he was leaving behind.

262
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: I have mixed feelings. Obviously, I love Oakland, I love

263
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 1: the fans in Oakland, and I know that there's going

264
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: to be disappointment and maybe some anger, and I just

265
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: hope that in the future, as we play in Oakland

266
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: this year, that they understand that it wasn't the players,

267
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 1: it wasn't the coaches that made this decision, but it

268
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: was me that made it. And if they have anybody

269
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: to talk to about it, it should be me, and

270
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 1: I will in the coming days try to explain to

271
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 1: them what went into making this difficult decision. Thank you,

272
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: m M. Mark Davis can't go to a game for

273
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: like two years. Yeah, Um, it's gonna be so strange

274
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: the next two to three years. Let's let's get into

275
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: that a little like that. They announced that they're going

276
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: to play in the Call Seam this year, and they

277
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: planned to the year after that. That you did use

278
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: the word plan to so I think if this year

279
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: went horribly wrong, they can they can get out of

280
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: that lease. The thing that was newsy to me, more

281
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: newsy than anything almost in terms of surprises. Mark Davis

282
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: kind of made the public pitch we'd love to stay

283
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: in if the Raiders fans want us to. Basically, I

284
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: think their their whole thing is they're gonna try to

285
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: keep all these fans, and they're gonna try to make

286
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: it seem like a three year goodbye, a three year

287
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: party and have a good atmosphere, and if they can,

288
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: they might stay there in This is a three year

289
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: run up until this stadium is ready in Las Vegas.

290
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: It's very strange. It's very I hate that, though. I

291
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 1: agree that's that's having it having it both ways, which

292
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: is like, hey, we want to turn this and to

293
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: go back to the death analogy, we want to turn

294
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: this into a three year funeral and you know when

295
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: Irish funeral, Yeah, and Irish funeral. We're not here to mourn.

296
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: We're here to celebrate the life of the Oakland. You know,

297
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: screw that, that's both let's break up and still be friends. Yeah, exactly.

298
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 1: Let's let's call it what it is. You abandon your

299
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: city and you need time to bridge the gap between

300
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: that Vegas stadium. Let's not you know, put lipstick on

301
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: a pig here and pretend like, oh, it's gonna be

302
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: amazing these final years and that right, let's not act

303
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: like the main reason is that the only other option

304
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: they have in Las Vegas right now is in u

305
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: n l V Football stadium that is not up to

306
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: snuff and the and will not be for another year

307
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: at least. So if it is, then that's still not

308
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: a good option for them. But if things totally go

309
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: south in Oakland, they're not gonna hang around for another

310
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: two years. I view that you're right. It was a pitch,

311
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 1: but it was also Mark Davis saying, hey us and

312
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: maybe this will be great for the people of Oakland,

313
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: And at that point you've got to say enough, your

314
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: your statement at this point has gone on too long.

315
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: Thank you. I can't imagine being a Raiders fans right,

316
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: all of the emotions that you're going through. I would

317
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: never want to go to a game and give them

318
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: my money. Well that that I agree with you, And

319
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: there I think there's gonna be a ton of anger,

320
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: and I think Raiders fans are more mixed on it

321
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: than than certainly charges of Rams fans where it was

322
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: all just fury. But fast forward to late October. If

323
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: the Raiders are seven and one, then what are you feeling?

324
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: Because it's this team you just invested so much in,

325
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: Not to mention the last thirteen years of not having

326
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: a winning record, you've got an m v P caliber quarterback,

327
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: even if he's not making m VP decisions in terms

328
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: of who follows him, who gets blocked on Twitter. You've

329
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: you know, you've you've had this team that you're excited

330
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 1: about and maybe they're gonna be in the mix, And

331
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: how what are you gonna be feeling then? How could

332
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: you not get swept up a little but have mixed emotions?

333
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think there are two types of

334
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: for scenes it's in and as we mentioned on the

335
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: NFL Network, it's not the same as if you were

336
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: an Oilers fan and it's curtains, you're everything that you've

337
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: rooted for is suddenly gone, or if you were a

338
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: Browns fan and they're gone and you don't know if

339
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a team back. There are two types

340
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: of Raiders fans. There are probably regional Oakland Bay area

341
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: fans that identify more with the fact that I'm from

342
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,880
Speaker 1: the Bay Area. You don't diss the Bay Area. Maybe

343
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: a little Debbie falls into that category, we don't know.

344
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 1: But the other side is just pure Raiders fans. They're

345
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: still have their team and they've dealt with a move already.

346
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,159
Speaker 1: This is unprecedented. It's a team moving twice now, so

347
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: I'm saying that you dealt with a move already. So yeah,

348
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: it's like about this Mark. You, as everyone on this

349
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: podcast knows, Brown's came back in nine to Cleveland, have

350
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 1: never identified a quarterback. They've struggled for seven senor eighteen years. Now,

351
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: imagine you, Mark finally got the quarterback, and then the

352
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: front office made the right the draft decisions and they

353
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: stuck with their GM five year process. They finally stuck

354
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 1: with a plan and up with management and hit on

355
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: the quarterback with a second round pick, and you think

356
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: you're set up as a fan for the next decade,

357
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: and then you get told that it's all that's getting

358
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: the rug yanked out. I don't know if people are saying,

359
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: like we don't Maybe the reaction isn't as hardcore as

360
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: it's been in San Diego, Los Angeles. Maybe the writers

361
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 1: fans in Oakland, Uh, first of all, we're not up there.

362
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: Second of all, maybe they're a little bit in a

363
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: shock right now because it's this has been hanging over

364
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,719
Speaker 1: them for years and years. But the fact that this

365
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 1: is actually gonna happen, You're gonna lose Derek car You're

366
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: gonna lose this great talented offense. You're gonna lose Khalil Mack.

367
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 1: Like that is crazy thought. If you're a fan, it's

368
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I think the I think the difference

369
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: is is that I would fall into at this point

370
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: in my life. I'm Brown's fan. I'm not with the

371
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 1: fact that it's I don't live in Cleveland. I've never

372
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 1: lived in Cleveland. So it's like if you're if you're

373
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: more tied to them, being interwoven with the city that

374
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: you live in, raise your family in, have your kids

375
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: and want them to be Raiders fans, and suddenly they're uprooted.

376
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: That fan, that fan is gonna have a different reaction

377
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: than the people we see all over the place where

378
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 1: you go, there's Raiders fans and they're like, there's all

379
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: this chatter out there about Raider Nation number one above

380
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: all this. Derek Carr actually called for that essentially in

381
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: a statement. But I think you're right. We are five

382
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: hours into this announcement. Let's see where fans are, you know,

383
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 1: three or four months from now, if not weeks, and

384
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: we'll see. Well, I would say, let's see seven years

385
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: from now, you know. That's That's where I'm thinking. Once

386
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: once the buzz kind of wears off, and let's say that,

387
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: you know, the Raiders are just back to being a

388
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 1: middling team or but like is could this is a

389
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 1: thing that I could imagine that the NFL made a

390
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: huge mistake, Like I rarely look at uh moves that

391
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: the NFL makes and can't understand them. And I can

392
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: understand this, but think that it doesn't lack for say,

393
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 1: I could see this being something in the NFL regrets

394
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: in seven eight years. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's Stephen

395
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 1: Ross was saying. I think that that that it's half

396
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: filled with opposing fans and there's not really a local community,

397
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 1: and they lose a lot of the Raiders fans that

398
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 1: they had, but they're not really gaining them. And then

399
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 1: they're just in this weird spot with a nice stadium

400
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: there to the point of like the the frustration again

401
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: of the situation for the fans to get left behind.

402
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: Something I heard today on NFL Network Gonna Watch. I

403
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: just wanna play a clip from you. This was Steve

404
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: Watch and Kim Jones talking at the owners meetings. No

405
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: victory lap of any sorts from the league or Mark Davis.

406
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 1: I think they understand the pain that this is gonna

407
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 1: cause some folks in Oakland, so they were clear not

408
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,479
Speaker 1: to stick out their chest and say, hey, we're super

409
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: happy to be coming to Las Vegas. All good, but

410
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: a little bit of deja vu. And then I read

411
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 1: the statement from Derek Carr. As players, we will show

412
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,679
Speaker 1: up and give everything we have. We will compete, and

413
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: we will do our best to bring a championship to

414
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: the entire Raider nation. While I am from California and

415
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 1: would have loved playing in Oakland my whole career, I

416
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: understand the business side of the NFL. It affects us.

417
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: All that sounds a lot like Philip Rivers like not

418
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: to not to go back to a point we already made.

419
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: But three times at fourteen months, this is happening. This

420
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 1: is bad business. And I would have never thought the

421
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: NFL would has never been more successful than it is now, Colleen,

422
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: that this is happening now where we can't get these

423
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 1: teams to stay put. No, we can't figure out solutions,

424
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,919
Speaker 1: And I think the blame falls on a lot of people,

425
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 1: both inside the NFL and out. It's just so weird.

426
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: Because we went so long without any franchises moving, and

427
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, we're banking three times in

428
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: a row. But I want to know what happens hey

429
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: with the players, the young players, the like when you

430
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 1: think about rookies and you're right out of college and

431
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're in Vegas. That, oh my god,

432
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: how do you survive that? That's it's a great point.

433
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: And survive are we talking terminal again? Just thinking about surviving?

434
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: You thinking like a zombie apocalypsis. I've been on the quill,

435
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: I on a lot of beds. I mean, I think

436
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: NFL players will love it. They will love the road

437
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: trip to Vegas, and I think I think it might

438
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 1: be a fun place for young people, you know, young people,

439
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 1: but it's kinda be you know, the potential for insane

440
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: stories and just everything coming out is well, I'd say,

441
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: though I'm not going blue chips. Rappaport mentioned the coaches

442
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 1: last night. We're already like thinking about how to deal

443
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: with that. Where you keep teams, you keep them thirty

444
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: miles off the strip. They're saying potentially, but honestly, like,

445
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: if you're twenty, you got a ton of money any

446
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 1: NFL city, you can go do whatever you want for

447
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 1: the most part. I mean, I mean it's yes, it's

448
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 1: there's more. You guys have gone to Vegas. We think

449
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: about think about what we sign every year as NFL employees.

450
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: The NFL Compliance Plan, Like it is literally against policy

451
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 1: to stay in a hotel. I believe that has a

452
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: sports book in it, Like, think about, how do you

453
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: do a Super Bowl there? Then how do you how

454
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: do you really convince I don't it doesn't believe, but

455
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,920
Speaker 1: you talked about it culturally. This is gonna be a change.

456
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: I believe you can stay in the hotel, you not

457
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 1: set foot inside the sports book. Um, I believe. I

458
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: believe that's what it is. And you're hoping that because

459
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 1: you've already shattered that compliance that's I feel like that's

460
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 1: something that I had heard. It's like the studio just

461
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: goes dark. I love that Craig has at this point

462
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: committed to memory the compliance outlines around any sort of

463
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: gambling and make sure I'm with I'm fully complian, like

464
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: a beautiful mind. He's like writing it on the walls,

465
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 1: and um, you bring up a good point, by the way,

466
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: Colleen about uh young guys, young girls like going to

467
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: Vegas for weekends. And now, oh, we're going to build

468
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: in the Raiders game. That's a little tricky. The game's

469
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: gonna be on Sunday afternoon. You're gonna get into town

470
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: Thursday or Friday. Do you have a bad weekend? No?

471
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 1: What they need is Anna afford any Well, yeah. The

472
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 1: new stadium though, needs to have I V stations. I think, oh,

473
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: there you go again, right because they have I V

474
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 1: buses there are talking about the company you endorse that

475
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: water problem. It's liquid ivy and it's a hydration shameless. No,

476
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: it's also I drink it all the time. It's great.

477
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 1: I gotta get on the Raiders podcast. Greg defended Colleen.

478
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: You just asked her, You asked her what it was.

479
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: She answered the question. I know. I keep buying it

480
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: though for real, Um, but the shameless that lettle aside

481
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:23,919
Speaker 1: right there. I keep buying it. I keep buying it

482
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 1: because it works. But what about the I V buses

483
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,159
Speaker 1: and stuff that they have there. They have like people

484
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: that will come to you and give you I V

485
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: s and like, so that should totally be in the state.

486
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 1: Colleen all over the IVY bus situation, everyone else is like,

487
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: I didn't know that the pluses. Yeah, as we said,

488
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 1: if there was one NFL team in Vegas, Raiders makes sense,

489
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 1: it could. If the stadium is cool, it adds another

490
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,719
Speaker 1: kind of layer to Vegas is a fun venue. And

491
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 1: I get I get the finance, and it's all about money.

492
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: We know that, Like that's what this is. This game

493
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: is all about if you're an owner, because the NFL

494
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: team is your is your plaything. He's going from Oakland

495
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: where they were like near the bottom of the pile

496
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: making money in terms of revenue, and if this works,

497
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be insane the amount of money that. That's

498
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: why I think the NFL may not look back on

499
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: it and say it's a mistake because they care about

500
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: one thing. I get about one thing. But I think

501
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: the NFL has done a good job over the long

502
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 1: term of thinking big picture and thinking what's best for

503
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 1: the league, not always just thinking about dollars, and like,

504
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: is it that big of a deal that one of

505
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: your thirty two teams is making less stadium revenue right

506
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: now than the other teams aren't Something's more important than

507
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: that over a really long period of time, Like your

508
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: answer thirty one owners told you. I think. I think

509
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: at a different point in NFL history, when there were

510
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: more Rooney's and Maras and and all the original owners,

511
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: maybe the decisions would be different. But now it's like, Nope,

512
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,399
Speaker 1: we gotta bump them up to the eighteenth most valuable

513
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 1: team from thirty second. Guy. But think about it too.

514
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: All of the hotels there and the casinos, they're going

515
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 1: to buy sweets in the new stadium, they're gonna be

516
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: giving away tickets, and like if every single hotel, if

517
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,679
Speaker 1: you're the only hotel that doesn't have one, like, are

518
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: they all Once one does it, then they all have

519
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: to do it all? Right? One question, Dan, you said

520
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: that the Raiders are the best team to move to

521
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. What would be the worst in your opinion?

522
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: I mean, besides, I would say the Texans. That wouldn't work.

523
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: But why would the Texans be the worst? The Las

524
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: Vegas Texans. It's kind of name I don't well, I'm

525
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: just saying, yeah, okay, not roster or coach. There's a

526
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: team called the Utah Jazz and nobody bats an Io.

527
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: But that about the Pelicans l A Lakers. They named

528
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 1: them the Pelican. The Pelicans. A lot of Pelicans down there, Greg,

529
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 1: you can attest to you were. I mean, it was

530
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: a surprising choice for a nickname, but it was their

531
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: choice when they moved Texans. Makes sense a pure naming standpoint,

532
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 1: but they would probably rename it. Take what Yeah, well,

533
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 1: all right, I'm going without renaming because that that I mean,

534
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: I'm eliminating them because it seems like the most obvious

535
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: You don't listen, you can come back, and I'm not

536
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,920
Speaker 1: slow the podcast down to a screeching halt would be weird.

537
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: They don't they do to any of the Giants that

538
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 1: you know, the Giants have been there forever, and they're

539
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 1: kind of like, hey, we're the classy New York team

540
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: and Giants work and you know, the Vegat Patriots okay,

541
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 1: they almost want to St. Louis. Then can we get

542
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: through one show talking about fans? Patriots says the Jets.

543
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:38,119
Speaker 1: Fan Jets come up a lot on the show, and

544
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: they're a lot less relevant. Oh boy, the Veggest Saints

545
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,160
Speaker 1: would be good. All right, that's Vegas Saints is good.

546
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 1: They should be the Vegat Saints and Sinners. Oh, the Sinners.

547
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: I like that, Saints and Sinners is a woefully overpriced

548
00:27:55,640 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 1: place for food in New Orleans. I believe it used.

549
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 1: I believe owned by the guy who uh is the

550
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 1: lead in the Male Strip Show movie. I'm really I'm

551
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 1: really getting old. He's a very famous guy, but I

552
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:18,239
Speaker 1: can't think of his name right now. You know there

553
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: is I don't want to. I want to table the

554
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,880
Speaker 1: discussion uh into well, the male strip club discussion. Yes,

555
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 1: all permanently, that's perfectly tabled. The other discussion I want

556
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: to hold for Wednesday because West has to be here

557
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 1: for it. But I don't. I don't want to do it,

558
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 1: and I know we had rules, but West West is

559
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: a desert Consigliari spice rack. It might be good to

560
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: get some perspective on the guy that actually lives in

561
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: Lost Oh. I agree with said. I think you need

562
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 1: both on Wednesday, and you get in touch with Little

563
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 1: Debbie's people. Makes some happen. It was Channing Tainum, by

564
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 1: the way, Tatum, we we had tabled that conversation. I've

565
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 1: gone back to I brought back. I think it might

566
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 1: and we'll let West decide because it was his, his

567
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: his buddy that that of course, and on some level

568
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: West has felt let him down with some of his

569
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: past appearances. But if ever there was a time to

570
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 1: check back in with a spice rack, I don't know.

571
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: I only agree with you. There's some other news to hit, um,

572
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 1: so why don't we do it? So let's see what

573
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: else is in the news. You're alive. You got it

574
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: because she died, but now you're not. You're back like Lazarus,

575
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 1: all right, So yeah, there's the other stuff in the news.

576
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: It's it's kind of a bit of a several steps

577
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: down in terms of irrelevance. But let's talk about Adrian

578
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: Peterson and uh, still doesn't have a team. He released

579
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: a statement on his social media handles, like he did

580
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: it on Twitter. I think you might have done it

581
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: on Facebook. Uh, and I'll read it real quick here.

582
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 1: You can't believe everything you read or hear people. Oh.

583
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: This was in reference to the report out there that

584
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: he was seeking eight million annually as a salary, which

585
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: I think we talked about briefly on Friday, which is

586
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: kind of crazy considering the market for veteran running backs. Uh,

587
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 1: you can't believe everything you read or hear people. The

588
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: last thing I'm worried about is playing ball. This coming

589
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: season that will happen. It's not all about the money.

590
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 1: Is everyone is speculating here lately blah blah blah. Let

591
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: me eliminate questions or speculation as to why I believe

592
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 1: the whole I believe wholeheartedly. My God will lend me

593
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 1: right where I need to be to accomplish what I've

594
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 1: asked from him period. He's looking for the best fit

595
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: any team that he could help in a major way

596
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: win a championship. Interesting. Well, of course he's not worried

597
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: about it right now because all the other big name

598
00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: free agent running backs are off the market, so it's

599
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: really just him sitting there and he's thirty two coming

600
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: off a meniscus tear. What like, what else does he

601
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: have to do? He has no other choice. I was confused,

602
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: but I didn't I read this statement. I first of all,

603
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: I wasn't even sure what he was referring to in

604
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: the first place. And then he he said, how prideful

605
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 1: is it for me to put out I won't play

606
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: for anything less than eight million exclamation. I don't know

607
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: what he was even trying, Like, what the point he

608
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: was trying to prove there? But however he would say like,

609
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 1: who am I to say that I wouldn't play for

610
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: anything less than that? Why, well, here's a here the

611
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: person who hired the agent who said that you want

612
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: eight million dollars. I think it's I think it's a

613
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: statement reflecting on whatever he's hearing behind the scenes. It says,

614
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: you definitely are not going to be making eight million years,

615
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: so get out ahead of it and act like that's nonsense.

616
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: I would never demand such a thing, not you, Adrian Peterson.

617
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: Now we continue to hear Marshall Lynch and all these

618
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: little stories he's got his tank is full, that he's rejuvenated,

619
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: the Raiders could be interested, blah blah blah um the

620
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 1: Greg the the Peterson to Oakland still makes a lot

621
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: of sense. But let's be honest, here where else could

622
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: this guy play? Does anybody else have a team to

623
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: throw out that maybe hasn't been discussed that makes sense

624
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: at this point, he's got to get a job somewhere.

625
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 1: It's almost April. Have you talked about the Lions? I haven't.

626
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: Maybe the Lions. He goes to a division rival, the

627
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: need in every down back. I think he should do it.

628
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: I think the Buccaneers have been a great fit, and

629
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: I think, like all of these teams are waiting for

630
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: that price to come down. I think if he said

631
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 1: I'll play for one million, I mean one year, two

632
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: and a half million, there'll be teams interested, and I

633
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: think the Bucks would be one of them. But I

634
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: think he should do that before the draft, because that's

635
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 1: one thing depressing his market already is how good this

636
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 1: draft classes. And then I think once you get you know,

637
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: ten running backs in the first three rounds or whatever

638
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 1: it's got to be, and you know, three or four

639
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: in the first you know, thirty five picks, like those

640
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: teams are really going to be off the market for

641
00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: a guy like Adrian Peterson. Sine Now moving on, uh uh.

642
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: The Buffalo News is the major daily in the western

643
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: New York region, and Jerry Sullivan is a columnist for

644
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: that newspaper. Great NFL coverage by the Buffalo News. One

645
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: of the would say and uh. Jerry wrote a column

646
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: that was published today over the weekend, headline, Bills should

647
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: fire Doug Waley and be done with it. I'm just

648
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: gonna read the opening two graphs because Jerry doesn't pull

649
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: any punches here. I'm actually beginning to feel sorry for

650
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: Doug Waley. Bit by bit, the Bill's general manager has

651
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: seen his power and stature diminished as a Pagoula's conferred

652
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: unprecedented control of the football operation to their new head

653
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: coach Sean McDermott. Wally has become a mute, emasculated figure.

654
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: He's not allowed to speak for the organization anymore, even

655
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: on the rare occasions where they used to trust him.

656
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: The latest indignity is his exclusion from next month's predraft

657
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 1: media luncheon. So what if you read I read the

658
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: whole um, It's it's it's it's good, it's well written,

659
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: and it makes sense. There's logic to it. But Sullivan's

660
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 1: basically getting at They decided to make McDermott like the

661
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 1: all seeing OZ guy in Buffalo, which, let's be honest,

662
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: that's a risky move, making him a Belichick guy when

663
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: we don't know if he can do anything. He's never

664
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,280
Speaker 1: been a coach or GM or anything, and that puts

665
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: Well in a position where he's basically lame duck or

666
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:26,399
Speaker 1: something worse, waiting to be fired or should he quit

667
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: and try to keep his dignity. It's a it's a

668
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: situation to what happened to uh Howie Roseman in Philadelphia

669
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: with Chip Kelly. He came out the other side. I know,

670
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: not that Doug Whaley is going that won't happen here,

671
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 1: but it is very peculiar that there. I don't understand

672
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 1: why they didn't fire him at the same time as

673
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: Rex Roy. Don't they just clean the house entirely. Gms

674
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: don't usually get the opportunity to work with multiple coaches,

675
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 1: to work with multiple quarterbacks, and too in that period

676
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: of time, clash with multiple ridge I mean really clashed

677
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,359
Speaker 1: with dougma Rown and he clashed at least ideologically with

678
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: with with Rex Ryan. It's it's like, how is this

679
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 1: guy continuing to exist in this organization. It's it's frustrating

680
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: for Bills fans that you're starting a new era in

681
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 1: a month into it, like a local the local columnist

682
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: is writing fired the GM and and get anyway with it.

683
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 1: It's like the imagine being Jerry Sullivan. Just you see

684
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 1: Doug Whaley at the seven eleven or something awkward. You know,

685
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: that's kind of very awkward. I mean, you can't publish

686
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: this article until you just are confident this guy's on

687
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 1: the way out and there. The the organization is not

688
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: going to just crush our paper for something like this.

689
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: The marriage of Whaley and McDermott seems strange that you

690
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: would even go into it, and it sounds like McDermott

691
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: is the one that's getting to pull the strings. Now.

692
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 1: The only thing I can think of is he's waiting

693
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 1: to be fired so he can get paid for the

694
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: rest of his contract, and maybe they're just keeping him

695
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: to be escape goat for McDermott if McDermott's moves don't

696
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: totally pan out. It's good to have scapegoats inside the organization.

697
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: Any organizations they built, they bought the do you think

698
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: we keep sally around? Even back there right now? Sniper

699
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: fire from total Job, That was exact word I was,

700
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 1: although I agreed with his points, so I'm right there

701
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 1: with it. I yeah, I thought it's funny. And this

702
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 1: this speaks to the frustration of Bills fans that because

703
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 1: again they have not been in the playoffs since the season,

704
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 1: which is even if you're in Tom Brady's division, that's

705
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: unacceptable and there's such a frustration. The Bugoulahs were hailed

706
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,280
Speaker 1: as saviors when they stepped in and save the Bills

707
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 1: from potentially being moved out of Buffalo. But now you

708
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 1: could really feel even what are we three thousand miles away?

709
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,839
Speaker 1: You could feel the chill, both from the media and

710
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: the fans of the Bills who are sick of it.

711
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: They are sick of everything around this team. Their inability

712
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: to get things together and have a couple ten win

713
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: seasons and just get rolling in the right direction. They

714
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 1: can't do it, and I think Wale is like he's

715
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: a symbol of that, Like they refuse to really do

716
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: things the right way, and it keeps them behind the curve.

717
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: I get it. As a Jets fan, I get it. Well,

718
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: you can't sympathize with them then if that's the case,

719
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: until they get rid of him, until they just fire him.

720
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: I guess the point is that he is kind of gone,

721
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 1: but he's just living in the building now. And he

722
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 1: called him a mute, emasculated figure. Jerry did I mean,

723
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: Jerry is pitying him. That's terrible. Pull the trigger, get

724
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: him out of the building, all right. Nice imagery, you know,

725
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: with the chill coming over Buffalo, A little lake effects,

726
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 1: snow burying once more, little temp talk in a big

727
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 1: people people love talking about the lake effects. Now, you know,

728
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: during bills, games or whatever, it's always the lake effects. Now,

729
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: everybody's got to come down with the lake effects. Now

730
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 1: ever lived up there, what do you know about lake off?

731
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: It's now you don't like the opposite gender. For like

732
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,799
Speaker 1: eight months in upstate New York and just western New York,

733
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 1: you went to like approximately fourteen colleges. One was up

734
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: in that area college but my both of my grandparents

735
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: lived in Syracuse and Ithaca, and we would take these

736
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: drives up in the winter. It's no joke that winner

737
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:21,240
Speaker 1: is not something to be trifled at wrestling matches up there. Crazy,

738
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: you would wrestle up there, go to wrestling matches there

739
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: was I was the wrestling manager at Drexel. I thought

740
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: you meant like w w W as you were the wrestling. Yeah,

741
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,479
Speaker 1: it was my work study, so I got paid for that.

742
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 1: Did you get collie flower ear and no diseases as well? Thanks? No?

743
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: What do you get? You get like ring worm right

744
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,479
Speaker 1: from the mats? No, that was disgusting. But I learned

745
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,760
Speaker 1: how to score matches. How about that? I covered wrestling

746
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: at my old newspaper and never learned how to score

747
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: match You didn't every every every every match I covered

748
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: became a human interest puff piece about some fight to

749
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 1: overcome the odds. Same thing when they had they sent

750
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: me to cover swimming and diving. Oh I did that.

751
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: I like, you think I'm gonna know what's a good

752
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: diving a bad dive. Right, Let's do some human interest

753
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,880
Speaker 1: pieces and be done with it. I did that with lacrosse.

754
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: I have no idea I couldn't cover. I would get

755
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 1: into the fifth enning of a baseball game and I

756
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: have no idea what's happening. Honestly, I mean like if

757
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,280
Speaker 1: you start to know if you if you're covering baseball

758
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,879
Speaker 1: and they don't have the scoreboard up and it's just

759
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 1: humans playing baseball, and it's a high school like low

760
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: level field, you're not keeping score. Well, I'm trying to

761
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 1: keep you score in a in a book I took it,

762
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: and you're trying to keep scoring, and like beer, there's

763
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 1: I'm like sixteen years old. I'm saying I would get

764
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: into the fifth inning and I realized I have no

765
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: idea what the scores and which person from the team

766
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: I'm supposedly covering do I acknowledge At the end of

767
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: the game. I have no idea what the score was.

768
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,439
Speaker 1: I don't know who did what. I had to write

769
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: an article on this. I quit, I'm done, I'm out,

770
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: Drive home, Drive to Costa rica Um. Little Ralph Berry

771
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: stood on that diving board and looked out to the water,

772
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: but he might have been looking out to the world

773
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 1: for all we know. So much was on shoulders in

774
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 1: that moment. Barry came through and then you just plug

775
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 1: in the gut and away we got what was the

776
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:22,240
Speaker 1: name of the newspaper, the Journal News all right, also

777
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: home to Ian Rappaport, Ian R. Rappaport. I used to

778
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,359
Speaker 1: use the initial I don't know if I'm breaking news

779
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: that count I break that. They like that great like

780
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: I used to go by Ian R. Rappaport. I meanwering

781
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: right constantly on this. You got anything else recently, so

782
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 1: the and the dolphin. That's how easily we're triggering that drops.

783
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: To me, I worked hard on that drop. Don't let

784
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 1: them shame you. Get your mileage out of it. Please

785
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: the way they try to shame me, don't We gotta

786
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: be stronger than yeah strong, That's what's happening in the news.

787
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: I was going to talk about the Bears and Packers players.

788
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 1: What happened at Sharkey's. Not's not allowed to get to there,

789
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,840
Speaker 1: you know what, Greg wasn't thrilled about the story, and

790
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: we're a little short on time, so but I mean

791
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 1: she just summed it up. Sharkey's Sharky's Fun House. That's

792
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 1: where they were the night they got arrested. Would you

793
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: if you were a younger fan, Mark, when you were

794
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,279
Speaker 1: a Browns fan all of sixteen years old, would you

795
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: have been upset to hear about an offseason story with

796
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: a Browns player saying Eric Metcalf and a Steelers player

797
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 1: say a Bubby Brister arrested together? Yeah? I think I

798
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 1: would have. I mean, I remember being utterly horrified when

799
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: I found out that Hulk Hogan and Iron Chic were

800
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,879
Speaker 1: arrested together in a car in like North Carolina. Blew

801
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 1: my childhood and mind away. I didn't understand why they

802
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 1: would be actual friends. That was especially that would be

803
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: especially like alarming because they really did, uh try hard

804
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: to keep the curtain down at that time. K fab

805
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: kfabe what any wrestling fans out there can correct me

806
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: on that? That's the inside terminology to break k FABE

807
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 1: what k A F A B whatever. We'll get into

808
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: that at another time. This show has a terminal on

809
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 1: this suddenly okay? And professional wrestling k FEBE is the

810
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:49,320
Speaker 1: portrayal of stage events within the industry as real or true, specifically,

811
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 1: the portrayal of competition, rivalries and relationships between participants as

812
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,760
Speaker 1: being genuine and not of a staged or predetermined nature

813
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 1: of any kind. Good nugget? How do you pronounce it?

814
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: Shut up? Hey, I don't know. All right, here we go,

815
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,799
Speaker 1: Here we go. Let's do some mail. Bad questions? Uh,

816
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,319
Speaker 1: I loved it the first one here, Luke Underling at

817
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: seven more likely to be a pro bowler this year?

818
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 1: Tom Savage? M hm, keep sitting on our toes, Tom Savage?

819
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:48,800
Speaker 1: Or be ready to sitting here, Christian Hackenburgh, We more likely?

820
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: What kind of question is this? It's obviously Tommy Savage,

821
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,360
Speaker 1: who looked who looked like he had a little bit

822
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 1: of promise and has a chance to start Week one

823
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 1: for a team. I don't think it's a great chance

824
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: because I think Tony Romo will be there. But if

825
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,800
Speaker 1: Tony Roma was not there, I fully expect Tom Savage

826
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 1: to be their Week one starter. I'm with you, and

827
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 1: it's you could go eight weeks before we even see

828
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 1: Christian Hackenburg. If they things play out, probably Bryce Petty

829
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 1: would be a number two behind Josh McCown. So you're

830
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: not gonna win m VP by taking over from Halloween. Plus,

831
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: they generally describe his VP by the way, Pro Bowl,

832
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, Yeah, they're gonna go one in fifteen. They're

833
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 1: not going on. There's not a lot of Pro Bowl

834
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: players on the Jets, say, from your lips to God,

835
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:34,240
Speaker 1: they generally describe Hackenburg's you know, football ability and practice

836
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: to be something akin to like a sixth grader. I

837
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: mean they're think they're cruel to Hackenburg. I'm not the one.

838
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: I'm just saying they they're brutal talking about Tom Savage

839
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:47,360
Speaker 1: is more real than Christian Hackenburg according to your sound drops, Yes, absolutely,

840
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: absolutely more real. Who starts more games? Is Tony gonna

841
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 1: be on the Texans? Is that gonna happen or what

842
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 1: I think he could be? He could be announcing Texans games?

843
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,879
Speaker 1: I will say yes though. Okay, this one from Scott

844
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: at Scott Underscore Mets twelve. It's a mouthful. Scott. I'm

845
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: not gonna say your Twitter handles bad. There's just a

846
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 1: lot going on there, a lot of characters. Um, should

847
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:15,959
Speaker 1: Browns tell Garrett and Watson to kiss off at number

848
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: one because of their quote unquote jokes. Droubinsky wants to

849
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: be in Cleveland. Now a little background to this, Uh,

850
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 1: definitely not. I believe Garrett sent out the word or

851
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: someone did or something was reported that he wanted to

852
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: go to the Cowboy. He made it joke. It was

853
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: a video Deshaun Watson. I don't even know the Watson situation,

854
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 1: but I guess something similar happened. I think, yeah, anti

855
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 1: Cleveland or I want to go somewhere else. Who knows

856
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 1: Mitchie Trabinsky wants to be in Cleveland. Now. It's kind

857
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 1: of a silly question, but a good one, Scott. But

858
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,399
Speaker 1: the point is a real one. I think the fact

859
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 1: mark that Cleveland has this bad reputation. Would you not

860
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 1: want a guy that had some negative things to say

861
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,360
Speaker 1: about your franchise? Very briefly, no, not at all. I

862
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 1: would absolutely take those players, because we just spent twenty

863
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 1: minutes talking about the Raiders, a team that no one

864
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 1: wanted to go to four or five years ago. If

865
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland got good, do you know what's going to happen

866
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 1: in that city will be bigger than the Calves. I

867
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 1: promise you bigger than the Calves. It is a football

868
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 1: city at its heart, and he could be part of that.

869
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 1: Any players they pick can be They should want that challenge.

870
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:24,840
Speaker 1: Here we go, this one from Gavin Harris at gave Pedro.

871
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,919
Speaker 1: You can choose any city in America. Greg, we'll start

872
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 1: with you on this one for an expansion team. Which

873
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:35,359
Speaker 1: city do you choose? And why? Any city you want,

874
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:40,839
Speaker 1: buddy boy, any city not Martha's Vineyard, but anywhere else.

875
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 1: I mean I would go to San Diego. I mean

876
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: that sounds like I don't know what the word would be,

877
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,760
Speaker 1: sentimental or something, but it's the right choice. It's a huge,

878
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 1: great football market and they don't have a team. If

879
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:54,880
Speaker 1: if we're trying to think of cities that have never

880
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 1: had an NFL team, that's good. I think I didn't

881
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: think of that immediately, but that's a great choice. How

882
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 1: about that? Mark a little empathy from Greg over there.

883
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's very human, very human moment from Greg Rosen.

884
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 1: What about I hear Austin is really cool. I have

885
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: no idea, but you know, It's like, I think it's

886
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,840
Speaker 1: the charm of Austin, and I know a little bit

887
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 1: about Emily's from Texas. I got married a little bit,

888
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 1: a little bit, a little bit. We don't need the drop.

889
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 1: We don't need the drop. Um that that's not breaking news.

890
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,919
Speaker 1: But part of the charm is that it's a nice

891
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:36,759
Speaker 1: little city. And keep Austin weird that type of vibe. Well,

892
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 1: it's funny. It's funny you say that because the I

893
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: believe the the original slogan was my The other city

894
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,399
Speaker 1: that came to mind, keep Portland's weird. Yeah, it's big,

895
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 1: big week for the Northwest with a couple of college

896
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 1: basketball teams. How about throw an NFL team in Portland?

897
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,800
Speaker 1: Works for me, works for me? Good answers, guys, moving on?

898
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 1: Uh uh? What else we got here? How about the

899
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 1: Anchorage Arrows. Put a team up an Anchorage outdoor stadium,

900
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:10,719
Speaker 1: get men that know how to play in the most

901
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,520
Speaker 1: freezing temperatures, and you just destroy teams fifty one to nothing.

902
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,160
Speaker 1: You throw the ball once a game. Maybe would you

903
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,359
Speaker 1: cover them? I would be on television from here. Sure,

904
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:25,480
Speaker 1: I'll take a step further. You already in Alaska. Let's

905
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 1: take to Russia. Russian Rockets. Oh, I thought it was

906
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 1: the United States. I would definitely pick a team outside

907
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:37,759
Speaker 1: of the States. Number one, the Russia Rockets in Russian here,

908
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 1: why not go Siberia? At that point, suddenly Russian intelligence

909
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 1: has appeared to have connected with our host is now

910
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,839
Speaker 1: is one of the great superpowers, and we should all

911
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 1: respect what they have to say to Russia. Russia has

912
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 1: it together. Moving on, Mark, this question is radio Dean

913
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:12,160
Speaker 1: Bonner at Dean in the How many teams are legit

914
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:16,120
Speaker 1: and all kidding aside? Here? Just give me a number, Mark,

915
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 1: how many teams are legitimate contenders for the Super Bowl

916
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:23,360
Speaker 1: next year? Four? Stop? I know, Greg, you don't like that.

917
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,760
Speaker 1: To make the super Bowl or to win it? Super

918
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 1: Bowl contenders get I guess to win, I'm saying to win,

919
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 1: four to win, to win, I'll go for to get there. Seven. Okay,

920
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:45,280
Speaker 1: Who's who can win? Who can feasibly win the Super Bowl? Patriots? Right, Packers, Steelers, Cowboys,

921
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:48,880
Speaker 1: everybody else can go home. Sea Hawks have no chance.

922
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 1: They don't make my cut. Do you have the Raiders

923
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,759
Speaker 1: on there? Your car is arbitrary? Tough day for Oak

924
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 1: I mean this whole there's all this assumption in NFL

925
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,359
Speaker 1: Network two, it's like the Super Bowl contending Raiders make

926
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 1: a big push and get to the super Bowl next year, Like, okay, look,

927
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 1: look at a lot needs to happen for that to

928
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,680
Speaker 1: be the reality to happen. They had a magical season

929
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 1: last year that didn't such doesn't happen every single season. Yeah,

930
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:14,319
Speaker 1: that's fair, Chiefs. Maybe I'm maybe I'm being a little

931
00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 1: conservative with four, but I don't think it goes beyond

932
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,479
Speaker 1: four or five. Don't say, Chiefs, We're gonna say cheese.

933
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 1: Wild card round, they're out. They have a legitimate shot

934
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,439
Speaker 1: to get to the wild card round. Next up. Tom

935
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 1: Marshall a red Zona UK. How long until Las Vegas

936
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 1: gets a Super Bowl? Super Bowl sixty? Maybe? Um, it

937
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 1: makes sense that Vegas would become because you know all

938
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,360
Speaker 1: the conventions. If you're from the States, Vegas is like

939
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 1: the convention capital of the world, so they can host

940
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 1: big events. They have a convention center, they have arenas. Uh,

941
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 1: there's no shortage of entertainment, obviously, I would think Vegas Yet,

942
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,719
Speaker 1: Greg more competition for New Orleans to get the game

943
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 1: that they deserve every fourth so annoying. Inglewood has the

944
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 1: one super Bowl, So the next one available, and if

945
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 1: the recent track record is any indication that will be

946
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: Las Vegas, is you get it about two two years

947
00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 1: after you open your new stadium they're opening, that would

948
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,880
Speaker 1: be the time basically the next one, uh Jack Clark

949
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:26,800
Speaker 1: at Southerner Jack. Likelihood of the return of t return

950
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 1: of team of a t N and the chances that

951
00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 1: team makes the playoffs, it's a it's a thorny issue.

952
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 1: It's I'm kind of problematic for you, guys. It's been

953
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 1: a tough season. What do you think, Mark, will a

954
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:43,800
Speaker 1: segment return. Yes, I I would be fine if it didn't,

955
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 1: but I feel it will be somehow both somehow force

956
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 1: it upon ourselves. September will be like, all right, guys,

957
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:54,479
Speaker 1: let's get jazzed up again for it. It's like, okay,

958
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,800
Speaker 1: we go. Mark was burned last year. Oh that was

959
00:51:57,840 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: a tough year from Mark. I mean not only the

960
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:03,480
Speaker 1: rounds go one in fifteen. You were out in front

961
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 1: with the Vikings, and when that got that got a

962
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 1: little personal and nobody enjoyed it, and you enjoyed it

963
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,480
Speaker 1: the least. It was not fun. Um. Yeah, I am

964
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 1: not like longing for that segment to come back. I don't.

965
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,759
Speaker 1: I think there's major, like organic issues to begin with,

966
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 1: because usually have the people have to pretend to be

967
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:23,920
Speaker 1: excited about that. Yeah, it's been a while since we

968
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 1: all or never see that's it. We've gone down all

969
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: those routes in terms of breaking down how to fix it,

970
00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,240
Speaker 1: and then it just becomes convoluted. But if you already

971
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 1: up your own ass, and then how much further can

972
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:36,800
Speaker 1: one go when you have multiple team I would be

973
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:38,440
Speaker 1: willing to pick it out of a hat, but I

974
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 1: know that other people would not be many many of

975
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 1: this group. I kind of love that idea actually, and

976
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 1: ifever we take you if we if we well, if

977
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,240
Speaker 1: we picked, if we picked like a maybe a handful

978
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: of finalists that we agree I feel like, and then

979
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,319
Speaker 1: you pick that teams, I think it's that then we're

980
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 1: already getting into all this like checks and bounce. It's

981
00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,400
Speaker 1: like it's thirty two teams, pick one, and you know what,

982
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,719
Speaker 1: you can't complain. We're not trying to convince each other.

983
00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:02,759
Speaker 1: You can't be, but you can't be. Later say oh

984
00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 1: it's Dan's fault that this is our time, and we'll

985
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,320
Speaker 1: have someone else picking maybe the person who picked like that.

986
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:10,520
Speaker 1: We could we could blame that person. I really like this.

987
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,839
Speaker 1: I'm not picking. I'm not picking. Can we do can

988
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,160
Speaker 1: we do pink pong balls? Could we have a we

989
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 1: have a lottery? Make it in a bent that I

990
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,719
Speaker 1: can get excited about. That's a great We have a

991
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 1: lot of hours to fill this up, a lot hours.

992
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 1: From Philip Gaffy at p gaff seventy one, is the

993
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:33,279
Speaker 1: is the last time we will see the infield and

994
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:36,799
Speaker 1: pitchers mound on the middle of a football field. Uh.

995
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:40,239
Speaker 1: He's referring, of course, to the Raiders, who are the

996
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:43,400
Speaker 1: final team to share the NFL team to share a

997
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 1: facility with the baseball team, the Oakland Athletics. Yeah, this

998
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:50,239
Speaker 1: could be it. I think it's definitely it. Barring some

999
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 1: one game weirdness somewhere, it will be. Yeah. It seems

1000
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:57,399
Speaker 1: like a relic from another time already whenever it happens now,

1001
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 1: But yeah, this is it. This will probab probably be

1002
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:04,399
Speaker 1: the last time. Because it's such big business, bigger than ever.

1003
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:08,520
Speaker 1: The idea of the NFL and MLB being a business together,

1004
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 1: it's just not gonna happen. That's what That's what ultimately

1005
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 1: killed them in this stadium situation is being partners with

1006
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:19,319
Speaker 1: the A's and this terrible lease that they signet you're

1007
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,360
Speaker 1: watching the game too. I like it as a like

1008
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:24,920
Speaker 1: growing up in the eighties, there were probably five or

1009
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,759
Speaker 1: six teams that had that early in the year and

1010
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:30,880
Speaker 1: it was kind of a cool marking of early season football.

1011
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,279
Speaker 1: But I think if anything will be written up in

1012
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:37,080
Speaker 1: a future you know, packed between the players and the owners,

1013
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:39,520
Speaker 1: that we don't play on dirt surface, you can We're

1014
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:41,439
Speaker 1: not gonna do that when we're making the contracts were making.

1015
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:46,760
Speaker 1: Next up, how long until Greg Rosenthal is too famous

1016
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 1: for the podcast and you can only get him on

1017
00:54:49,200 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 1: as a special guest. Look out, it's NFL net So ridiculous, Greg,

1018
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 1: any truth, I love that drop as far as I've seen.

1019
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:18,320
Speaker 1: You know, we we we've been on NFL Network a

1020
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 1: lot more than I ever was, you know, during the

1021
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 1: season that we've made such a big deal out of,

1022
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,279
Speaker 1: So maybe it should be NFL Networks. You know, Greg

1023
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 1: rosenl Dan hanzis calling Wolf, Mark Cesler and Chris Wesley,

1024
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:33,880
Speaker 1: but's still your name first? Okay. Noticed the little bit

1025
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,919
Speaker 1: of like sadness and Greg's voice when he speaks about

1026
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,520
Speaker 1: this reality that we're all on together now as opposed

1027
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:41,360
Speaker 1: to it is a lot more fun and the segments

1028
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:44,080
Speaker 1: are a lot better, that's for sure. By the way,

1029
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:46,600
Speaker 1: Zick is a great job with that drop. We were

1030
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 1: listening to it in the office the other day, just

1031
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,560
Speaker 1: playing it over and over. People. People should watch up

1032
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:54,799
Speaker 1: to the minute. By the way, on Tuesday, forget about

1033
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 1: mat sick is. Zick has just got more popp than

1034
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:06,600
Speaker 1: he ever expected. Go ahead, Greg, two to three Pacific,

1035
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,360
Speaker 1: five to six Eastern, up to the minute. It'll be

1036
00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:13,600
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Brett Loveday at cow Yank Who amongst the

1037
00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 1: heroes do we trust least in Vegas? What does that

1038
00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: even mean? To do? What? There's a couple of categories,

1039
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 1: all right, this is how I see it, um, Greg.

1040
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 1: In general, you kind of have your stuff together in

1041
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 1: the sense that you're unless it's like a really crazy night,

1042
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 1: Greg's not gonna go too high or too low. And

1043
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: that's a compliment. So I don't think you could. It

1044
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 1: would be where's Greg. I'm not going to be the

1045
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 1: answer to this question. Uh. To a lesser extent, I

1046
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:45,439
Speaker 1: would I would put myself in that category to where

1047
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:49,759
Speaker 1: I might have. I might have like a like Springs night,

1048
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 1: but you're not. I'm not gonna disappear and I'm not

1049
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:57,279
Speaker 1: gonna like gamble away my my son's college fund. Like

1050
00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:00,959
Speaker 1: I'll have some connection. I'll be tethered just a little

1051
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:05,440
Speaker 1: bit and despite sic Okay, all right, speak on it.

1052
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 1: Let me let me finish first, and then you can

1053
00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: chime in. West hates Vegas. So West would just stay

1054
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:15,400
Speaker 1: at the hotel bar, wouldn't gamble, wouldn't go to the pool.

1055
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:17,880
Speaker 1: Maybe he'll go to the pool, but he would just

1056
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 1: enjoy himself and have some spirits and he might get

1057
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: really drunk, but you know where to find him at

1058
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:27,720
Speaker 1: the end of the night. He'll be at the lobby bar. True, Yeah,

1059
00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:32,520
Speaker 1: Mark Marks to me marks the answer, because if you

1060
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,200
Speaker 1: have one of your like fun Mark Knights, I could

1061
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:40,320
Speaker 1: see you disappearing and making some new friends, going down

1062
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 1: some wormhole that takes you out of Vegas entire all

1063
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:45,960
Speaker 1: of a sudden you're in Henderson, Like I could see

1064
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:51,360
Speaker 1: markus by his his uh adventurer spirit. Uh if the

1065
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:53,680
Speaker 1: if the night hits you a certain way, talking I

1066
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 1: an eagle somewhere with something. If if it goes really wrong,

1067
00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:04,360
Speaker 1: you're You're six ft under the desert halfway. That's fantastic.

1068
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 1: I am not a gambler number one, like I always

1069
00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:09,680
Speaker 1: rolled no capital, But in my mind I would be like,

1070
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:13,520
Speaker 1: because I'm not gambling any money, I can spend so

1071
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:15,920
Speaker 1: much more money doing other things. And that's when the

1072
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 1: But I think most of us as a group would

1073
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 1: be in much more trouble in a smaller setting. Yes,

1074
00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 1: I really do. I think Vegas. To me, it's like,

1075
00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not really into Vegas. But this group

1076
00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 1: in general, when when things have gotten completely off the rails,

1077
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:33,160
Speaker 1: it's at like at Palm Springs, it's at a suddenly

1078
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: the cozy has something going on that they don't know

1079
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,200
Speaker 1: how to handle. It's like it is. It's not at

1080
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:40,920
Speaker 1: a larger venue necessarily, except for Super Bowls and combines

1081
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 1: and other events. You're you're you deliver the final verdict

1082
00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:50,919
Speaker 1: question who amongst the heroes do we trust least in Vegas? Which,

1083
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:52,480
Speaker 1: by the way, Mark doesn't mean I would trust you

1084
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:54,280
Speaker 1: the least, but it would be the biggest wild I

1085
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:57,240
Speaker 1: hear you feel free to surprise us. Yeah, trust is

1086
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,440
Speaker 1: sort of a weird thing in Vegas because lots of

1087
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 1: things happen in Vegas. But in terms of like biggest

1088
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:08,040
Speaker 1: wild card, it's obviously it's Sessler. We've we've all seen Sessler,

1089
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:11,360
Speaker 1: we've all been together with each other and these moments

1090
00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:15,439
Speaker 1: and I could totally see that. But Dan is right

1091
00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:20,880
Speaker 1: there behind. It's one A, one B. You don't know

1092
00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:23,960
Speaker 1: what you're gonna get. And um, just from what what

1093
00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:26,600
Speaker 1: we saw in Palm Springs, I think that I got

1094
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,840
Speaker 1: a little taste of that. You know, I got to

1095
00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:30,480
Speaker 1: agree with that. We haven't had a chance to talk

1096
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:33,920
Speaker 1: about Palm Springs, but I think what happened was Market.

1097
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:38,320
Speaker 1: We got helicoptered into the event, and we kind of

1098
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,680
Speaker 1: came in what seemed to be like a neutral zone

1099
00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:43,320
Speaker 1: where there was some recovery night going on and we

1100
00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:46,919
Speaker 1: had some authorities issue and Mark, you know, Market Phil

1101
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 1: cops came. By the way, you keep saying that the

1102
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:55,960
Speaker 1: like the renegade that we've been correct. Um, So I think,

1103
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 1: at least from my point of view, I wasn't looking

1104
00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:01,880
Speaker 1: for anybody to get some summons is or anything. But

1105
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 1: Daddy drove to Pond Springs. When when a dad that

1106
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:09,400
Speaker 1: has kids can get away for a night, that is

1107
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:13,160
Speaker 1: going to take advantage of that. I hope I didn't

1108
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: do anything to make you on comfortable, colleague. No, never,

1109
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 1: I did sending in very like that you knew this

1110
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:20,720
Speaker 1: text was coming if you're calling and gone. So it

1111
01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 1: was like I didn't do it the next day. It

1112
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:24,160
Speaker 1: was like a couple of days later, like, hey had

1113
01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 1: a really good time, thanks so much, like dot dot dot,

1114
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 1: Like I hope everyone's like still cool with us, Like

1115
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:34,520
Speaker 1: there was a general vibe in the morning it woke.

1116
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:36,200
Speaker 1: I'd be like, I don't know for a friend or

1117
01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 1: foe here, you just get out of here. No no,

1118
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,720
Speaker 1: I was actually going back and looking through my videos

1119
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 1: and pictures and snapchats, and we all had a really

1120
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 1: great time together. It was a great night. He did

1121
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,920
Speaker 1: a great job. Thanks that. He's going to talk in

1122
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 1: the third person all night. Greg. You understand my general

1123
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:59,400
Speaker 1: point though, third aside, when Dad gets out of the house,

1124
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:02,160
Speaker 1: especially when you I feel the second kid break, it

1125
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:04,440
Speaker 1: changes everything. It is. It is spring break. You're an

1126
01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:06,160
Speaker 1: animal let out of a cage. You just have to

1127
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:08,280
Speaker 1: go literally nuts for twenty four hours. Then you're back

1128
01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 1: into your world and you do a great Dan at

1129
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:13,320
Speaker 1: one point took the speaker from me that was playing

1130
01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:15,800
Speaker 1: the music and put it on top of the oven

1131
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:18,360
Speaker 1: hood so I couldn't reach it because I kept taking

1132
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,200
Speaker 1: it from him to turn it down, and then he

1133
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:23,720
Speaker 1: just kept turning it up louder and louder and louder.

1134
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:26,800
Speaker 1: Sounds like I was being a jerk, but it was

1135
01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 1: just trying to have fun, you know. Last question, this

1136
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 1: comes from Gmail. We're gonna work this off off, Mike.

1137
01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:36,160
