1 00:00:17,386 --> 00:00:20,426 Speaker 1: What's up everybody. Welcome to the season with Peter Schreger. 2 00:00:20,466 --> 00:00:23,106 Speaker 1: I'm Peter Schrager. I host Good Morning Football and NFL 3 00:00:23,106 --> 00:00:26,826 Speaker 1: Network five days a week. Every morning can find us 4 00:00:26,866 --> 00:00:29,346 Speaker 1: eight to ten am. Then we re air about a 5 00:00:29,426 --> 00:00:32,666 Speaker 1: million times an NFL network all day in the airport 6 00:00:32,706 --> 00:00:36,626 Speaker 1: wherever you are, you can see our mugs talking football. 7 00:00:36,746 --> 00:00:39,426 Speaker 1: I also am on the Fox NFL Kickoff pregame show 8 00:00:39,466 --> 00:00:43,426 Speaker 1: Sundays eleven to twelve Eastern and I live in New 9 00:00:43,506 --> 00:00:47,146 Speaker 1: York City, which means I come in with a certain 10 00:00:47,226 --> 00:00:50,306 Speaker 1: vantage point or disadvantage point when it comes to the 11 00:00:50,306 --> 00:00:52,986 Speaker 1: football squads. It's been a brutal year for New York 12 00:00:52,986 --> 00:00:58,026 Speaker 1: football Giants, entire offseason on Hard Knocks, every decision scene 13 00:00:58,786 --> 00:01:01,626 Speaker 1: as it's being made, and then watching the season play out. 14 00:01:01,746 --> 00:01:05,466 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones has been benched. Tommy DeVito is going to 15 00:01:05,506 --> 00:01:08,466 Speaker 1: start this weekend against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Our guest 16 00:01:08,466 --> 00:01:13,306 Speaker 1: today is Tommy DeVito's agent, the very colorful, the very charismatic, 17 00:01:13,466 --> 00:01:18,666 Speaker 1: the very very good podcast guest Sean Stellato. We're gonna 18 00:01:18,666 --> 00:01:20,866 Speaker 1: get the Stillato in a second, because I want to 19 00:01:20,866 --> 00:01:22,946 Speaker 1: start with the other team in town, the New York Jets. 20 00:01:24,186 --> 00:01:27,826 Speaker 1: They fired Joe Douglas. Joe was on a rare six 21 00:01:27,906 --> 00:01:31,266 Speaker 1: year contract and this was the end of that deal 22 00:01:31,546 --> 00:01:34,186 Speaker 1: and he was going to get either let go or 23 00:01:34,186 --> 00:01:35,706 Speaker 1: he would have walked away at the end of the thing. 24 00:01:35,706 --> 00:01:37,386 Speaker 1: He wasn't getting reupped anyway at the end of the 25 00:01:37,386 --> 00:01:39,186 Speaker 1: season the way it was going. But they decided to 26 00:01:39,426 --> 00:01:42,426 Speaker 1: rip the band aid off in week eleven of the 27 00:01:42,506 --> 00:01:44,746 Speaker 1: NFL season, as opposed to riding it out. We don't 28 00:01:44,786 --> 00:01:46,866 Speaker 1: usually see gms lose their jobs before the end of 29 00:01:46,906 --> 00:01:48,946 Speaker 1: the season. In this case, it was done. And I 30 00:01:48,986 --> 00:01:52,106 Speaker 1: think it's fair to say that they're doing this to 31 00:01:52,106 --> 00:01:55,746 Speaker 1: get a head start on things. I head start on 32 00:01:55,866 --> 00:01:58,666 Speaker 1: who's going to be the next faces and leadership of 33 00:01:58,706 --> 00:02:02,266 Speaker 1: this organization. A lot of people killing Woody and Christopher 34 00:02:02,306 --> 00:02:05,106 Speaker 1: Johnson and the ownership. That's to me, that's low hanging fruit. 35 00:02:05,106 --> 00:02:06,266 Speaker 1: There's a lot of people saying, well, they've got a 36 00:02:06,306 --> 00:02:07,946 Speaker 1: fire or the owner. That's not how it works. Jed 37 00:02:08,026 --> 00:02:12,586 Speaker 1: York after they fired Chip Kelly, after Jim tom Sulla 38 00:02:12,666 --> 00:02:14,746 Speaker 1: and Jim Harbough on consecutive years, Jed York was like 39 00:02:14,786 --> 00:02:16,506 Speaker 1: thirty eight years old and stepped up to a microphone. 40 00:02:16,506 --> 00:02:17,786 Speaker 1: They're like, why do you think you should be doing 41 00:02:17,906 --> 00:02:19,866 Speaker 1: He's like, I don't know what world you live in. 42 00:02:19,906 --> 00:02:22,866 Speaker 1: I'm the owner. I will not unless the team is 43 00:02:22,946 --> 00:02:25,426 Speaker 1: forcibly taken away from me. I'm not selling. I'm not 44 00:02:25,506 --> 00:02:27,706 Speaker 1: going anywhere like I want to win to That's how 45 00:02:27,746 --> 00:02:29,786 Speaker 1: I feel with the Jets ownership. And to say just 46 00:02:30,106 --> 00:02:33,826 Speaker 1: what he needs to go is it almost eliminates your 47 00:02:34,106 --> 00:02:37,026 Speaker 1: your rational thinking as a as a person who's ever 48 00:02:37,466 --> 00:02:41,026 Speaker 1: dealt with real life, you know, economics or the way 49 00:02:41,066 --> 00:02:44,346 Speaker 1: that businesses work. He is a owner of the team 50 00:02:44,506 --> 00:02:46,866 Speaker 1: and short of anything off the field that would cause 51 00:02:46,946 --> 00:02:50,306 Speaker 1: him to lose the team that he's not gonna just 52 00:02:50,506 --> 00:02:52,386 Speaker 1: give away the squad or sell it. If this is 53 00:02:52,426 --> 00:02:54,586 Speaker 1: something he truly loves, and in Woody's case, he does 54 00:02:54,626 --> 00:02:57,466 Speaker 1: truly love it is brother Christopher does as well. Now 55 00:02:57,506 --> 00:03:00,666 Speaker 1: here's where it gets interesting. Although it hasn't been announced 56 00:03:00,746 --> 00:03:03,386 Speaker 1: yet and it hasn't been decided yet. The last time 57 00:03:03,426 --> 00:03:07,266 Speaker 1: Donald Trump took office, what he Johnson was the ambassador 58 00:03:07,306 --> 00:03:10,306 Speaker 1: of the United Kingdom. Now a lot of people thought 59 00:03:10,306 --> 00:03:12,506 Speaker 1: that job was going to go to Linda McMahon. She 60 00:03:12,546 --> 00:03:16,106 Speaker 1: has already been appointed to something else in the Education Office, 61 00:03:16,226 --> 00:03:19,546 Speaker 1: so that job is still open. And when wood he 62 00:03:19,666 --> 00:03:23,346 Speaker 1: last left, he left for four years and his younger brother, 63 00:03:23,426 --> 00:03:27,666 Speaker 1: Christopher took over, and seemingly things went far better for 64 00:03:27,706 --> 00:03:29,746 Speaker 1: a little bit of a time period where they did 65 00:03:29,906 --> 00:03:32,186 Speaker 1: bring in Joe Douglas, who was a hot GM higher, 66 00:03:32,226 --> 00:03:34,346 Speaker 1: they did bring in Robert Sala, who was a hot 67 00:03:34,346 --> 00:03:37,706 Speaker 1: coaching candidate. And then when wood He got back, obviously 68 00:03:37,786 --> 00:03:41,266 Speaker 1: he didn't hire either one of those guys, and I'm 69 00:03:41,306 --> 00:03:43,106 Speaker 1: not sure if he was ever on board with either 70 00:03:43,146 --> 00:03:45,906 Speaker 1: one of those guys. So it goes the way it 71 00:03:45,946 --> 00:03:47,986 Speaker 1: goes this season, and I wear it as much as 72 00:03:48,026 --> 00:03:51,226 Speaker 1: anybody I've talked about this time and time again. It's unfortunate, 73 00:03:51,266 --> 00:03:54,066 Speaker 1: but I came out and put my reputation on the 74 00:03:54,066 --> 00:03:55,546 Speaker 1: line and said they're going to be a number one 75 00:03:55,546 --> 00:03:57,666 Speaker 1: seed in the AFC and Aaron Rodgers gonna be the MVP. 76 00:03:57,826 --> 00:04:00,026 Speaker 1: It could not have been more wrong. So I wear it. 77 00:04:00,066 --> 00:04:02,226 Speaker 1: I wear it like a weatherman who comes out and 78 00:04:02,266 --> 00:04:05,306 Speaker 1: says the weather's going to be awesome tomorrow and there's, 79 00:04:05,426 --> 00:04:08,266 Speaker 1: you know, terrible weather, or I wear it like one 80 00:04:08,306 --> 00:04:10,586 Speaker 1: of these political pundits who said it's going to go 81 00:04:10,626 --> 00:04:12,586 Speaker 1: this way, but then it goes another way, I'll wear it. 82 00:04:12,586 --> 00:04:13,946 Speaker 1: I was wrong. I thought it was going to go 83 00:04:13,986 --> 00:04:17,066 Speaker 1: one way. I forecasted my numbers and it was wrong. 84 00:04:17,946 --> 00:04:20,786 Speaker 1: That said, I don't know if I would advise them 85 00:04:20,826 --> 00:04:23,546 Speaker 1: to do it any differently. This year they went all in. 86 00:04:24,586 --> 00:04:26,626 Speaker 1: They went all in, and they went all in on 87 00:04:26,706 --> 00:04:28,946 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, and they went all in on Mike Williams, 88 00:04:28,986 --> 00:04:30,786 Speaker 1: and they went all in on Tyron Smith, and they 89 00:04:30,786 --> 00:04:33,986 Speaker 1: went all in on DeVante Adams, and then they went 90 00:04:34,026 --> 00:04:36,506 Speaker 1: all in on all the different moves they made to 91 00:04:36,746 --> 00:04:40,706 Speaker 1: take big swings. But when the actual product was revealed, 92 00:04:40,746 --> 00:04:43,186 Speaker 1: and it was very evident Week one, this was not 93 00:04:43,226 --> 00:04:46,106 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl contender. And it was very evident after 94 00:04:46,146 --> 00:04:47,946 Speaker 1: the Broncos lost where they lost ten to nine in 95 00:04:47,986 --> 00:04:49,826 Speaker 1: the pouring rain at home, that this was not a 96 00:04:49,866 --> 00:04:51,746 Speaker 1: team that was going to compete in the AFC with 97 00:04:51,786 --> 00:04:54,266 Speaker 1: the Chiefs and the Bills and the Ravens. Now. I 98 00:04:54,266 --> 00:04:57,866 Speaker 1: could argue, if Greg's herline makes a couple chippy kicks 99 00:04:57,866 --> 00:05:01,306 Speaker 1: against the Bills, if greg'szerline makes a makeable kick against 100 00:05:01,306 --> 00:05:05,866 Speaker 1: the Broncos, if they don't have a slew of you know, 101 00:05:06,066 --> 00:05:09,746 Speaker 1: terrible interceptions against the Vikings out of the gate in London. 102 00:05:10,146 --> 00:05:12,066 Speaker 1: This might be a team that's in the playoffs, but 103 00:05:12,146 --> 00:05:15,906 Speaker 1: the last two weeks have been inexplicable. And if firing 104 00:05:15,946 --> 00:05:18,226 Speaker 1: Sola wasn't enough, they're going to fire Joe Douglas and 105 00:05:18,266 --> 00:05:20,826 Speaker 1: now they'll move on. So you could read all the 106 00:05:20,906 --> 00:05:23,346 Speaker 1: articles you want. Some of them have good stuff, some 107 00:05:23,386 --> 00:05:26,186 Speaker 1: of them don't. And you could look at all this stuff, 108 00:05:26,186 --> 00:05:28,306 Speaker 1: but the second someone says like get rid of the owner, 109 00:05:28,426 --> 00:05:30,706 Speaker 1: I just dismissed that person because it's not the reality 110 00:05:30,746 --> 00:05:33,986 Speaker 1: of the NFL. Owners don't come and go. Owners hold 111 00:05:34,026 --> 00:05:36,186 Speaker 1: on to these things. They're the most profitable businesses in 112 00:05:36,226 --> 00:05:40,626 Speaker 1: the world. The margin on their returns are insane. And 113 00:05:40,666 --> 00:05:43,106 Speaker 1: there's only thirty two owners in the NFL thirty one 114 00:05:43,186 --> 00:05:45,186 Speaker 1: if you include the Packers not having a true owner. 115 00:05:45,586 --> 00:05:48,746 Speaker 1: And there's real prestige and there's a real place at 116 00:05:48,746 --> 00:05:52,146 Speaker 1: the table for those owners. So Johnson family is not 117 00:05:52,186 --> 00:05:54,666 Speaker 1: giving this team away. They're not selling this team. What 118 00:05:54,706 --> 00:05:57,666 Speaker 1: they can do though, is try to hire the right 119 00:05:57,946 --> 00:06:03,466 Speaker 1: people to write the ship. So who's next. Well, we're 120 00:06:03,466 --> 00:06:05,426 Speaker 1: going to go through a process here. Now we haven't 121 00:06:05,466 --> 00:06:08,506 Speaker 1: even seen or gottenn information yet because it's been so 122 00:06:08,586 --> 00:06:11,986 Speaker 1: fresh but do they hire an outside firm to run 123 00:06:12,026 --> 00:06:14,746 Speaker 1: this search, which has been the case for other teams 124 00:06:14,786 --> 00:06:17,906 Speaker 1: in the past. I remember the Buccaneers after Lovey Smith 125 00:06:17,906 --> 00:06:20,946 Speaker 1: and Dirk Cutter were like, what do we do next? 126 00:06:20,946 --> 00:06:24,506 Speaker 1: They hired I want to say, Jed Hughes, who is 127 00:06:24,546 --> 00:06:27,346 Speaker 1: an outside firm, and they went out and they hired 128 00:06:27,386 --> 00:06:30,266 Speaker 1: Bruce Arians, who had recently left Arizona and taken the 129 00:06:30,346 --> 00:06:32,786 Speaker 1: year on TV and was in CBS, and it was like, 130 00:06:32,986 --> 00:06:34,426 Speaker 1: what are we going to do next? They went out 131 00:06:34,506 --> 00:06:36,386 Speaker 1: hired Bruce Arians, Bruce Arians right at the ship. They 132 00:06:36,386 --> 00:06:38,666 Speaker 1: eventually get Tom Brady and on we go. A team 133 00:06:38,666 --> 00:06:41,386 Speaker 1: that had been terrible for fifteen years goes on to 134 00:06:41,426 --> 00:06:44,546 Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl. These outside search firms, they have 135 00:06:44,626 --> 00:06:46,346 Speaker 1: contacts with everybody that could be the way you go. 136 00:06:46,906 --> 00:06:51,426 Speaker 1: Do they hire a I would almost say, a face 137 00:06:51,546 --> 00:06:55,186 Speaker 1: of the football operation? And what does that mean? Well, 138 00:06:55,266 --> 00:07:00,066 Speaker 1: Detroit went and hired Chris Spielman as a face of 139 00:07:00,106 --> 00:07:04,706 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions franchise as a liaison between the front office, 140 00:07:04,706 --> 00:07:07,786 Speaker 1: which was eventually Brad Holmes and several other really talented 141 00:07:07,786 --> 00:07:11,426 Speaker 1: guys up there in Detroit and the owner, which is 142 00:07:11,426 --> 00:07:15,706 Speaker 1: the Ford family, and of course that has worked out perfectly. 143 00:07:16,506 --> 00:07:20,986 Speaker 1: Do you hire a president that overlooks both the business 144 00:07:21,026 --> 00:07:22,986 Speaker 1: and then the hind thing that The La Rams are 145 00:07:22,986 --> 00:07:26,546 Speaker 1: the model franchise to me, Stan Kronki is the owner. 146 00:07:26,706 --> 00:07:30,026 Speaker 1: Josh Kronki is the Sun. They are owners. We do 147 00:07:30,066 --> 00:07:33,466 Speaker 1: not touch football decisions. Now, they'll weigh in on, you know, 148 00:07:33,586 --> 00:07:35,746 Speaker 1: things that they might prefer and they'll obviously have a 149 00:07:35,826 --> 00:07:39,146 Speaker 1: say and whether a team, whether their team goes big 150 00:07:39,186 --> 00:07:41,426 Speaker 1: on a huge swing and a coaching higher and whatnot. 151 00:07:41,466 --> 00:07:45,226 Speaker 1: But Kevin Demoffo we've had on as the as a 152 00:07:45,266 --> 00:07:47,746 Speaker 1: guest on this show, is the team president. He actually 153 00:07:47,786 --> 00:07:50,306 Speaker 1: is now the team president of all the kranky sports 154 00:07:50,306 --> 00:07:53,626 Speaker 1: teams in the US, including the Avalanche, including the Rapids, 155 00:07:53,626 --> 00:07:56,106 Speaker 1: and including the Denver Nuggets. But Kevin is sort of 156 00:07:56,106 --> 00:07:59,306 Speaker 1: the point person up top from a business standpoint, but 157 00:07:59,626 --> 00:08:05,546 Speaker 1: less Snead, Tony past Stores and Sean McVay sort of 158 00:08:05,546 --> 00:08:08,626 Speaker 1: handle the football. So you've got a business operation where 159 00:08:08,626 --> 00:08:11,306 Speaker 1: it's the owners, yes, but they hire people who can 160 00:08:11,386 --> 00:08:13,386 Speaker 1: run the business side of it and then the football 161 00:08:13,426 --> 00:08:16,106 Speaker 1: side of it, and then the actual coaching is done differently. 162 00:08:16,386 --> 00:08:20,386 Speaker 1: The Jets right now, well, they've got a president Jimi 163 00:08:20,466 --> 00:08:23,746 Speaker 1: El high who is very capable of his job, but 164 00:08:23,866 --> 00:08:28,546 Speaker 1: isn't necessarily making football decisions. They have an owner, Woody Johnson, 165 00:08:28,586 --> 00:08:31,626 Speaker 1: they have Woody's brother, Christopher. Those guys both they want 166 00:08:31,626 --> 00:08:33,866 Speaker 1: the best for the team. And if you've read a 167 00:08:33,866 --> 00:08:35,706 Speaker 1: lot of the stuff, it's as if wood he's pulled 168 00:08:35,746 --> 00:08:37,506 Speaker 1: all the levers. I don't think that's true. I think 169 00:08:37,546 --> 00:08:39,426 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas did have a lot of autonomy here. I 170 00:08:39,426 --> 00:08:41,066 Speaker 1: think Joe Douglas did have the opportunity to make a 171 00:08:41,066 --> 00:08:43,466 Speaker 1: lot of decisions. How much medaling was done is going 172 00:08:43,506 --> 00:08:46,226 Speaker 1: to be for the articles that we write for you know, 173 00:08:46,386 --> 00:08:49,146 Speaker 1: you know, the forty eight hours afterwards. But Joe Douglas 174 00:08:49,186 --> 00:08:51,706 Speaker 1: was given five and a half years to field an 175 00:08:51,826 --> 00:08:54,946 Speaker 1: NFL team, and he also was in charge of a 176 00:08:54,946 --> 00:08:57,826 Speaker 1: lot of the business stuff. Do you put a more 177 00:08:58,426 --> 00:09:01,586 Speaker 1: football president in there? And is that Curtis Martin who 178 00:09:01,586 --> 00:09:06,226 Speaker 1: Gary Myers has suggested, is is that do you hire 179 00:09:06,266 --> 00:09:08,586 Speaker 1: someone who does the GM job and is more of 180 00:09:08,626 --> 00:09:12,906 Speaker 1: like a football president of operations, who who perhaps comes 181 00:09:12,906 --> 00:09:15,746 Speaker 1: from another franchise, Like do you higher? I don't even 182 00:09:16,186 --> 00:09:18,626 Speaker 1: you want to go down the list of different luminaries, 183 00:09:18,666 --> 00:09:22,826 Speaker 1: but like, was that a job that maybe you look 184 00:09:22,906 --> 00:09:27,146 Speaker 1: towards give me a name of a former player that 185 00:09:27,306 --> 00:09:29,666 Speaker 1: is still involved in football here, a Chris Bielman type 186 00:09:29,666 --> 00:09:32,386 Speaker 1: of course, but like a John Lynch, but like more 187 00:09:32,386 --> 00:09:35,466 Speaker 1: than GM. Like you give someone that role where you're like, yes, 188 00:09:35,466 --> 00:09:36,586 Speaker 1: you're going to be a part of it, but you're 189 00:09:36,586 --> 00:09:39,106 Speaker 1: also going to be our front and centering face. Now 190 00:09:39,146 --> 00:09:41,386 Speaker 1: the Jets in their history, Chad Pennington would be a 191 00:09:41,426 --> 00:09:44,146 Speaker 1: name I would suggest, just had success, smart business guy, 192 00:09:44,186 --> 00:09:45,746 Speaker 1: but hasn't really been in the NFL as much as 193 00:09:45,786 --> 00:09:50,466 Speaker 1: like the alumni stuff that he does. Curtis Martin's a 194 00:09:50,546 --> 00:09:52,946 Speaker 1: name obviously, but he's he's not in the day to 195 00:09:52,986 --> 00:09:56,106 Speaker 1: day football stuff. I would look towards that to just 196 00:09:56,186 --> 00:09:59,386 Speaker 1: have that voice maybe and someone that Woody Johnson trusts 197 00:09:59,786 --> 00:10:01,786 Speaker 1: that he can talk to and say, okay, I just 198 00:10:01,826 --> 00:10:04,026 Speaker 1: need your voice here to be the go between between 199 00:10:04,066 --> 00:10:06,586 Speaker 1: the GM and the coach and us. Maybe that's a position, 200 00:10:07,226 --> 00:10:08,786 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, coach is what 201 00:10:08,906 --> 00:10:11,546 Speaker 1: matters to me. And this is not dismissing the GM position. 202 00:10:12,146 --> 00:10:14,226 Speaker 1: For me. If you find a great football coach, it 203 00:10:14,226 --> 00:10:18,546 Speaker 1: can heal all wounds. And in Denver they were sputtering 204 00:10:18,946 --> 00:10:21,626 Speaker 1: George Payton's a really talented GM. They were sputtering with 205 00:10:21,666 --> 00:10:24,346 Speaker 1: head coaches left and right. They went to Sean Payton 206 00:10:24,346 --> 00:10:27,226 Speaker 1: and said, here's twenty million dollars, fix this and go 207 00:10:27,386 --> 00:10:29,146 Speaker 1: make things right now. I'm not saying you need to 208 00:10:29,146 --> 00:10:31,466 Speaker 1: spend twenty million dollars or go find a former Super 209 00:10:31,466 --> 00:10:35,946 Speaker 1: Bowl champion, but I do think a powerful and promising 210 00:10:36,026 --> 00:10:39,546 Speaker 1: head coach is the way to go. And that could 211 00:10:39,546 --> 00:10:42,266 Speaker 1: be a quiet guy like Ben Johnson, the offensive coordinator 212 00:10:42,306 --> 00:10:44,186 Speaker 1: of the Lions. You just pay through the nose and say, 213 00:10:44,186 --> 00:10:46,346 Speaker 1: give me the best offensive guy. It could be a 214 00:10:46,346 --> 00:10:48,706 Speaker 1: former head coach a Mike Vrabel. It could be a 215 00:10:48,786 --> 00:10:51,426 Speaker 1: former head coach a Cliff Kingsbury. It could come from 216 00:10:51,466 --> 00:10:53,666 Speaker 1: a lot of different directions. But I would like to 217 00:10:53,666 --> 00:10:56,226 Speaker 1: think coach is the most important hire here, and GM 218 00:10:56,786 --> 00:10:58,866 Speaker 1: as important as it is. The Jets had a really 219 00:10:58,906 --> 00:11:02,786 Speaker 1: good scouting staff, a really good personnel. They've got players 220 00:11:02,786 --> 00:11:05,306 Speaker 1: on that roster. What they need is the next coaching 221 00:11:05,306 --> 00:11:08,186 Speaker 1: staff to come in and revite that thing. You tick off. 222 00:11:08,186 --> 00:11:10,626 Speaker 1: The questions after that is Rogers coming back. I don't know. 223 00:11:12,066 --> 00:11:14,546 Speaker 1: I don't know. I honestly don't. They don't owe him anymore. 224 00:11:14,546 --> 00:11:17,706 Speaker 1: Guaranteed money after this year. So do you just say, hey, Aerin, 225 00:11:17,826 --> 00:11:20,746 Speaker 1: it's been real, thank you, it was worth the shot. 226 00:11:20,866 --> 00:11:23,746 Speaker 1: We appreciate your service, move on, or does Aaron himself 227 00:11:23,746 --> 00:11:25,706 Speaker 1: say I'm good, I'm not sticking around for this rebuild. 228 00:11:25,746 --> 00:11:30,266 Speaker 1: I'm out. That's a key decision. After that, you say, okay, well, 229 00:11:30,266 --> 00:11:32,706 Speaker 1: Salah was a defensive coach. Do we now go offensive 230 00:11:32,706 --> 00:11:34,266 Speaker 1: side of the ball. And if we do go offensive 231 00:11:34,266 --> 00:11:36,546 Speaker 1: side of the ball, do we draft a quarterback with 232 00:11:36,586 --> 00:11:38,186 Speaker 1: one of these top ten picks? If you were to 233 00:11:38,266 --> 00:11:41,106 Speaker 1: draft a quarterback, well, you had a top ten pick 234 00:11:41,186 --> 00:11:43,586 Speaker 1: last year, the eleventh pick. You took an offensive tackle 235 00:11:43,666 --> 00:11:46,146 Speaker 1: when there was a quarterback rich draft, and you didn't 236 00:11:46,146 --> 00:11:48,466 Speaker 1: do it last year. Do you kick yourself and say, 237 00:11:48,626 --> 00:11:51,146 Speaker 1: all right, now, we didn't get bon Nicks, we didn't 238 00:11:51,146 --> 00:11:53,826 Speaker 1: get Michael Pennix. We didn't get JJ McCarthy because we 239 00:11:53,866 --> 00:11:55,586 Speaker 1: had Aaron Rodgers at forty years old, and we don't 240 00:11:55,586 --> 00:11:57,026 Speaker 1: want to upset the apple cart. We wanted to give 241 00:11:57,106 --> 00:12:00,146 Speaker 1: him somebody else. Well sign he didn't draft Rock Bowers either, 242 00:12:00,146 --> 00:12:02,346 Speaker 1: who's on the board, And he didn't accept the trade 243 00:12:02,346 --> 00:12:04,986 Speaker 1: that was offered for other teams to move up to 244 00:12:05,026 --> 00:12:06,946 Speaker 1: get Brock Bauers, and you went and you drafted a 245 00:12:06,946 --> 00:12:09,386 Speaker 1: sixth offensive tackle who may or may not be the 246 00:12:09,386 --> 00:12:13,466 Speaker 1: next Walter Jones, but Olu Fashanu better be pretty good 247 00:12:13,506 --> 00:12:15,946 Speaker 1: if you took him over all those guys. I say 248 00:12:15,986 --> 00:12:18,786 Speaker 1: all this to say that the Jets they're back at 249 00:12:18,786 --> 00:12:22,986 Speaker 1: square one. They're back at the ground level. And I'm 250 00:12:23,026 --> 00:12:25,586 Speaker 1: not preaching to anybody because I have none of the answers. 251 00:12:25,706 --> 00:12:28,306 Speaker 1: I have suggestions of who I would talk to. I 252 00:12:28,306 --> 00:12:32,226 Speaker 1: think Mikey Greenberg in Tampa Bay, who's the number two there? 253 00:12:32,546 --> 00:12:35,466 Speaker 1: A guy who managed a salary cap and kind of 254 00:12:35,506 --> 00:12:38,546 Speaker 1: managed to bring back all those veterans even after Brady left. 255 00:12:39,146 --> 00:12:41,346 Speaker 1: With Jason Light the GM. As a name, I would circle. 256 00:12:41,546 --> 00:12:44,426 Speaker 1: He's a Merrick, New York native, grew up a Jets fan. 257 00:12:44,546 --> 00:12:46,226 Speaker 1: Might as well bring him in talk to him as 258 00:12:46,266 --> 00:12:49,146 Speaker 1: a GM. But coaches what matters most to me. So 259 00:12:49,266 --> 00:12:51,346 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. They have a head start here 260 00:12:51,586 --> 00:12:54,026 Speaker 1: and we'll see who they use, who do they utilize. 261 00:12:55,666 --> 00:12:59,546 Speaker 1: But hit rock bottom for the Jets, and it's been 262 00:12:59,546 --> 00:13:01,666 Speaker 1: pretty bad for the Giants too. They got a new 263 00:13:01,746 --> 00:13:03,666 Speaker 1: quarterback and I got his agent on We're gonna talk 264 00:13:03,706 --> 00:13:14,186 Speaker 1: to Sean Stillado after this all Right. Our guest this 265 00:13:14,306 --> 00:13:16,426 Speaker 1: week is a personal favorite of mine, and it's a 266 00:13:16,466 --> 00:13:18,506 Speaker 1: guy that the rest of the country got a chance 267 00:13:18,586 --> 00:13:20,586 Speaker 1: to get to know a little bit last year during 268 00:13:20,586 --> 00:13:22,946 Speaker 1: the Tommy DeVito craze and the rise to stardom in 269 00:13:22,986 --> 00:13:25,746 Speaker 1: New York. He's been a power for a long time. 270 00:13:26,066 --> 00:13:28,026 Speaker 1: I really enjoy him and we love having him on 271 00:13:28,026 --> 00:13:31,746 Speaker 1: as a guest.

And Tommy, 497 00:24:11,146 --> 00:24:13,666 Speaker 1: who had this spotlight and had this moment and had 498 00:24:13,706 --> 00:24:16,506 Speaker 1: the commercials and had three straight wins, including one over 499 00:24:16,546 --> 00:24:18,626 Speaker 1: the Packers last year, it's kind of being told you're 500 00:24:18,626 --> 00:24:20,586 Speaker 1: gonna be number three. How did he handle that? 501 00:24:21,226 --> 00:24:24,986 Speaker 2: You know, he handled it honestly great and testament to Tommy. 502 00:24:25,146 --> 00:24:30,506 Speaker 2: He's wired just you know, just a very unique individual. 503 00:24:30,746 --> 00:24:32,666 Speaker 2: And with his he knew he was going to have 504 00:24:32,706 --> 00:24:34,986 Speaker 2: to go back to the drawing board and he worked 505 00:24:35,466 --> 00:24:38,346 Speaker 2: very very hard Pete this offseason. And let's face it, 506 00:24:38,346 --> 00:24:41,066 Speaker 2: it's the most complex position on the football field, the quarterback. 507 00:24:41,466 --> 00:24:43,386 Speaker 2: But The one thing is Peter, what were the odds 508 00:24:43,386 --> 00:24:47,186 Speaker 2: of being a practice squad guy to getting elevated to 509 00:24:47,266 --> 00:24:50,106 Speaker 2: becoming the starter and then winning three games like that 510 00:24:50,146 --> 00:24:53,426 Speaker 2: as a rookie. So you know, he just that's the 511 00:24:53,426 --> 00:24:55,386 Speaker 2: beauty of this game as you just never know. I mean, 512 00:24:55,506 --> 00:24:58,706 Speaker 2: Drew Bledsoe gets injured, Tom Brady gets an opportunity. I 513 00:24:58,706 --> 00:25:01,426 Speaker 2: mean he might Tom Drew doesn't get injured, Tom might 514 00:25:01,466 --> 00:25:04,146 Speaker 2: not play for a while, right, So I think he 515 00:25:04,306 --> 00:25:08,306 Speaker 2: just he trusted process and you know, coaching Joe have 516 00:25:08,386 --> 00:25:11,146 Speaker 2: been very transparent ever since we you know, decided to 517 00:25:11,186 --> 00:25:13,466 Speaker 2: go there instead of taking a big guarantee. 518 00:25:13,946 --> 00:25:16,346 Speaker 3: And you know it's crazy, is you know one of. 519 00:25:16,346 --> 00:25:18,186 Speaker 2: The things I missed to say was the SP's the 520 00:25:18,266 --> 00:25:20,986 Speaker 2: SP's You know, we had brought us out there a 521 00:25:21,026 --> 00:25:23,986 Speaker 2: great time, but you know people are partying out there. 522 00:25:24,026 --> 00:25:27,546 Speaker 2: You know, Tommy DeVito at six a m. Was on 523 00:25:27,586 --> 00:25:32,706 Speaker 2: the football field and guess who was receivers were myself 524 00:25:33,186 --> 00:25:36,866 Speaker 2: and his brother Rax. And honestly, my hands are still sore. 525 00:25:36,946 --> 00:25:39,466 Speaker 2: This gets throwing two hundred balls a day. He's working out, 526 00:25:39,506 --> 00:25:42,146 Speaker 2: I mean he's in the gym. I mean that's you know, 527 00:25:42,506 --> 00:25:44,386 Speaker 2: you got a trip like that guy's on doing that. 528 00:25:44,466 --> 00:25:47,186 Speaker 2: But it's the little things. Look at he knows he's 529 00:25:47,186 --> 00:25:51,066 Speaker 2: not a rookie anymore, and he's uh, he's excited for 530 00:25:51,106 --> 00:25:53,466 Speaker 2: the opportunity to look at you. That's a very close 531 00:25:53,546 --> 00:25:57,266 Speaker 2: quarterback room, uh in New York. And it gets along 532 00:25:57,306 --> 00:26:00,466 Speaker 2: great with Daniel and Drew. And but it's look at 533 00:26:00,546 --> 00:26:02,786 Speaker 2: all you can control is, as we know it might 534 00:26:02,826 --> 00:26:04,826 Speaker 2: sound a little cliche, is the man in the mirror, right. 535 00:26:05,266 --> 00:26:09,146 Speaker 2: I mean, you can't personnel decisions. All you can do 536 00:26:09,226 --> 00:26:11,066 Speaker 2: is you got to make the most out of your opportunities. 537 00:26:11,066 --> 00:26:14,506 Speaker 2: And I think he's ready for that challenge. And he's 538 00:26:14,546 --> 00:26:16,226 Speaker 2: so walked in on Tampa Bay. 539 00:26:17,026 --> 00:26:19,266 Speaker 1: I have to think it was like the perfect storm 540 00:26:19,346 --> 00:26:22,706 Speaker 1: in that right player, Tommy with the right demeanor who 541 00:26:22,786 --> 00:26:26,466 Speaker 1: it's never been about him, It's never been about you 542 00:26:26,506 --> 00:26:31,146 Speaker 1: know what he could do. Right market North Jersey where 543 00:26:31,466 --> 00:26:34,066 Speaker 1: there is a huge Italian American fan base, but also 544 00:26:34,946 --> 00:26:38,426 Speaker 1: the Sopranos as a television show in the background, having 545 00:26:38,466 --> 00:26:42,546 Speaker 1: its roots in that market, and then the primetime games 546 00:26:42,586 --> 00:26:45,946 Speaker 1: and the opportunities to actually shine that this became a 547 00:26:46,266 --> 00:26:50,546 Speaker 1: not only football story, but a cultural zeitgeist moment. And 548 00:26:50,546 --> 00:26:53,786 Speaker 1: then there's the come down from that. How has Tommy 549 00:26:53,826 --> 00:26:56,266 Speaker 1: handled that in that you know, the spotlight was there, 550 00:26:56,306 --> 00:26:58,626 Speaker 1: but when you're not the number one quarterback, it's not 551 00:26:58,706 --> 00:27:00,786 Speaker 1: like it's kind of hard to say, hey, I still 552 00:27:00,786 --> 00:27:02,706 Speaker 1: want that table at that restaurant, or I still want 553 00:27:02,706 --> 00:27:04,746 Speaker 1: the court side seats of the Knicks. You'll get them, 554 00:27:05,186 --> 00:27:08,106 Speaker 1: but it's not as natural or smooth a transition when 555 00:27:08,146 --> 00:27:10,226 Speaker 1: you're not that guy. I would be so fascinated to 556 00:27:10,306 --> 00:27:12,306 Speaker 1: hear how he handled that as a young guy, because 557 00:27:12,386 --> 00:27:13,226 Speaker 1: that could be hard to. 558 00:27:13,706 --> 00:27:16,146 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, And what I think one of the 559 00:27:16,226 --> 00:27:18,946 Speaker 2: key components of that Peters Tommy has a high level 560 00:27:18,946 --> 00:27:21,706 Speaker 2: of faith, and he's got a really tight Knitch family. 561 00:27:22,106 --> 00:27:24,466 Speaker 2: And Tommy and I have always shared the vision ever 562 00:27:24,506 --> 00:27:27,146 Speaker 2: since we first met, of looking at the glass half full. 563 00:27:27,786 --> 00:27:31,106 Speaker 2: So many blessings and opportunities come as a rookie, and 564 00:27:31,146 --> 00:27:33,426 Speaker 2: he was able to develop and learn, and you know, 565 00:27:33,506 --> 00:27:36,826 Speaker 2: I really believe he's you know, he's a starting quarterback 566 00:27:36,826 --> 00:27:39,106 Speaker 2: in this league. I do, you know, And I know 567 00:27:39,346 --> 00:27:43,186 Speaker 2: he's got an opportunity Sunday, but he handled it with 568 00:27:43,346 --> 00:27:47,626 Speaker 2: class and grace, and he trusts the process. He believes 569 00:27:47,626 --> 00:27:49,946 Speaker 2: in that franchise. He believes in his coach, he believes 570 00:27:49,986 --> 00:27:53,186 Speaker 2: in his OC believes in the front office, and he 571 00:27:53,226 --> 00:27:55,746 Speaker 2: believes in the team around him. That you know, we're 572 00:27:55,746 --> 00:27:58,786 Speaker 2: all in it for one reason, to see him succeed, 573 00:27:59,186 --> 00:28:01,746 Speaker 2: impact lives and look at the jersey thing. 574 00:28:01,946 --> 00:28:02,906 Speaker 3: It's it is cool. 575 00:28:03,346 --> 00:28:06,626 Speaker 2: Uh, you know all that backstory, the Italian heritage is 576 00:28:06,666 --> 00:28:08,386 Speaker 2: the root of all our dreams. 577 00:28:08,706 --> 00:28:11,706 Speaker 3: And and just to that to happen in that market. 578 00:28:12,026 --> 00:28:13,826 Speaker 2: I don't know what the odds of the probability of 579 00:28:13,866 --> 00:28:18,546 Speaker 2: the statistics happening, but none believe that divine intervention and 580 00:28:18,626 --> 00:28:21,786 Speaker 2: how everything's worked over the last twelve months. We're right 581 00:28:22,026 --> 00:28:24,386 Speaker 2: right near where he needs, where he deserves to be, 582 00:28:24,426 --> 00:28:27,266 Speaker 2: where he wants to be, and where we are and 583 00:28:27,546 --> 00:28:30,066 Speaker 2: trying to embrace that because you know, through this you 584 00:28:30,226 --> 00:28:33,106 Speaker 2: watch so many great players. They hit speed bumps along 585 00:28:33,106 --> 00:28:35,826 Speaker 2: the way, they have adverse moments, and I think that 586 00:28:35,906 --> 00:28:37,386 Speaker 2: makes the script that much better. 587 00:28:37,986 --> 00:28:40,506 Speaker 1: What is what is Tommy's contract status? Is he a 588 00:28:40,506 --> 00:28:42,066 Speaker 1: free agent at the end of the season. 589 00:28:42,066 --> 00:28:45,706 Speaker 2: Yeah, he'd become a so pretty much he's an exclusive 590 00:28:45,746 --> 00:28:49,426 Speaker 2: rights after this his two years and RFA, so I 591 00:28:49,426 --> 00:28:52,266 Speaker 2: guess you got a tender so that they would technically. 592 00:28:51,946 --> 00:28:53,066 Speaker 1: Have inside his fate. 593 00:28:53,186 --> 00:28:56,386 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, yep, so he's. 594 00:28:56,226 --> 00:28:58,066 Speaker 1: Got a chance to do it. I would ask you, 595 00:28:58,066 --> 00:29:02,266 Speaker 1: as an agent, did you see your business uptick and 596 00:29:02,346 --> 00:29:07,306 Speaker 1: have you used the veto spotlight to maybe advance yourselves 597 00:29:07,346 --> 00:29:09,666 Speaker 1: with these college coaches to try to say, hey, I 598 00:29:09,666 --> 00:29:12,346 Speaker 1: can represent even more players from different positions. And you 599 00:29:12,386 --> 00:29:14,826 Speaker 1: already had a find career as an agent, but this 600 00:29:14,986 --> 00:29:17,586 Speaker 1: was a sensation last year, and did you feel like 601 00:29:17,626 --> 00:29:20,506 Speaker 1: you maximized that for the next coming crops of draft classes? 602 00:29:21,266 --> 00:29:23,786 Speaker 2: You know what, It's funny when the viral moment happened. 603 00:29:24,186 --> 00:29:27,826 Speaker 2: That happened kind of on the ladder end of recruiting 604 00:29:28,866 --> 00:29:31,586 Speaker 2: middle of December, so a lot of guys kind of 605 00:29:31,586 --> 00:29:35,786 Speaker 2: were situated, but from a visibility standpoint, and I think 606 00:29:35,826 --> 00:29:38,426 Speaker 2: this year's recruiting process has been night and day since 607 00:29:38,506 --> 00:29:41,746 Speaker 2: last year. You know, I look at it, I feel 608 00:29:41,786 --> 00:29:43,826 Speaker 2: like I do a good job.

Sometimes you know, you know, 636 00:31:05,266 --> 00:31:08,826 Speaker 2: high school sports very political. College sports can be very political. 637 00:31:09,786 --> 00:31:12,186 Speaker 2: Tom And that's the one thing I love about Tommy DeVito. 638 00:31:12,706 --> 00:31:16,266 Speaker 2: He never pointed the finger at Syracuse and said, hey, 639 00:31:17,386 --> 00:31:19,226 Speaker 2: he just you know, it was part of the journey, 640 00:31:19,426 --> 00:31:22,306 Speaker 2: part of the process. He's grown from it, he's better 641 00:31:22,386 --> 00:31:24,826 Speaker 2: from it. And you know he's grown a lot in 642 00:31:24,826 --> 00:31:28,746 Speaker 2: the twelve last year. And I'm yeah, I mean, I 643 00:31:28,786 --> 00:31:31,066 Speaker 2: think now it's using his experience from you know, what 644 00:31:31,186 --> 00:31:33,906 Speaker 2: he did last year to just continue to be better. 645 00:31:33,986 --> 00:31:39,706 Speaker 1: Right, I wrote down walked the Glass Mountain barefoot? That 646 00:31:39,866 --> 00:31:45,826 Speaker 1: is an incredible, incredible axiom.

And I interviewed him last 814 00:39:44,506 --> 00:39:47,946 Speaker 1: year for Christmas Day's game on Fox between the Eagles 815 00:39:47,946 --> 00:39:49,386 Speaker 1: and the Giants, and like, I was in the building 816 00:39:49,586 --> 00:39:51,546 Speaker 1: just that day, and maybe I've learned my lesson after 817 00:39:51,746 --> 00:39:53,826 Speaker 1: my several days in the Jets building and thinking they're 818 00:39:53,826 --> 00:39:56,186 Speaker 1: going to be the seventy six Steelers. But I was 819 00:39:56,226 --> 00:39:58,386 Speaker 1: in the building that they the players like the veto 820 00:39:58,506 --> 00:40:01,706 Speaker 1: a lot, like they love the veto. And he's he's 821 00:40:01,746 --> 00:40:03,586 Speaker 1: a you heard the story. He goes to the SP's 822 00:40:03,586 --> 00:40:05,586 Speaker 1: at six am. He's probably at a high school field, 823 00:40:05,626 --> 00:40:07,666 Speaker 1: thrown to his agent, Like, I don't know, Tommy's cool, 824 00:40:07,906 --> 00:40:09,906 Speaker 1: see how it goes. It's hard for me to see 825 00:40:09,946 --> 00:40:12,066 Speaker 1: them beating Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers, but the Bucks 826 00:40:12,106 --> 00:40:14,466 Speaker 1: have lost four games in a row and we'll see 827 00:40:14,506 --> 00:40:17,946 Speaker 1: from there. Aaron I, we got a sponsor and it's 828 00:40:18,266 --> 00:40:21,666 Speaker 1: Uber Eats, and it's time for delivering results presented by 829 00:40:21,746 --> 00:40:24,466 Speaker 1: Uber Eats. I'm gonna discuss a team or a player 830 00:40:24,506 --> 00:40:28,226 Speaker 1: that delivered from the week's past games. I'm going bone Knicks. 831 00:40:28,706 --> 00:40:32,266 Speaker 1: Bone Knicks went twenty eight thirty three through four touchdowns, 832 00:40:32,346 --> 00:40:34,946 Speaker 1: had zero interceptions against the Falcons, team that's likely going 833 00:40:34,986 --> 00:40:38,346 Speaker 1: to the playoffs. Bon Nicks was the sixth quarterback taken 834 00:40:38,866 --> 00:40:42,066 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty four NFL Draft, the sixth guy taken, 835 00:40:42,346 --> 00:40:44,586 Speaker 1: and yet the Broncos are right there in the thick 836 00:40:44,626 --> 00:40:47,146 Speaker 1: of the playoff chase. They would be a playoff team 837 00:40:47,146 --> 00:40:49,026 Speaker 1: at the playoffs for today and bo Nix is getting 838 00:40:49,066 --> 00:40:51,266 Speaker 1: better every single week. What I liked about bon Nicks 839 00:40:51,506 --> 00:40:54,306 Speaker 1: They lose in this crazy fashion to the Chiefs on 840 00:40:54,426 --> 00:40:56,266 Speaker 1: the blocked extra point and it's like, how do you 841 00:40:56,786 --> 00:40:58,466 Speaker 1: our blockfield goal? And they're like, how do you recover 842 00:40:58,546 --> 00:41:00,626 Speaker 1: from that? Goes and has a career day and lights 843 00:41:00,666 --> 00:41:04,986 Speaker 1: up Atlanta. Boon Knicks is our guy, and he delivered 844 00:41:05,066 --> 00:41:07,386 Speaker 1: last week. That was delivering Result presented by Uber Eats, 845 00:41:07,386 --> 00:41:09,026 Speaker 1: where you can get the best deals on game day 846 00:41:09,026 --> 00:41:12,106 Speaker 1: food all season long, the official on demand delivery partner 847 00:41:12,146 --> 00:41:16,266 Speaker 1: of the NFL. Order Now Real Quick, Aaron, did you 848 00:41:16,386 --> 00:41:18,666 Speaker 1: watch Jake Paul Mike Tyson? 849 00:41:19,626 --> 00:41:19,666 Speaker 4: No. 850 00:41:20,026 --> 00:41:22,346 Speaker 5: I had had dinner with some friends and we went 851 00:41:22,426 --> 00:41:24,586 Speaker 5: to the bar. We're gonna watch it, and we were like, 852 00:41:24,626 --> 00:41:25,866 Speaker 5: what time does it start? Eight o'clock. 853 00:41:25,946 --> 00:41:27,626 Speaker 4: We get there at eight o'clock and it was like, wait, 854 00:41:27,706 --> 00:41:30,386 Speaker 4: there are three or four fights before this. It doesn't 855 00:41:30,466 --> 00:41:33,266 Speaker 4: start until eleven, So I didn't watch it. 856 00:41:34,306 --> 00:41:35,586 Speaker 1: I read about it. The next day. 857 00:41:35,626 --> 00:41:37,986 Speaker 4: I watched a couple things. It seemed like I watched 858 00:41:38,066 --> 00:41:43,466 Speaker 4: more conspiracy theories. Then there was actual real discussion on 859 00:41:43,546 --> 00:41:44,266 Speaker 4: it the day after. 860 00:41:44,906 --> 00:41:48,546 Speaker 1: Okay, it was a horrible fight, that's what I heard. 861 00:41:49,226 --> 00:41:51,746 Speaker 1: Mike Tyson didn't even take a punt. I can't even 862 00:41:51,786 --> 00:41:54,266 Speaker 1: attempt to win this match. He was in there and whatever. 863 00:41:55,506 --> 00:42:00,586 Speaker 1: I think it's the first cultural zeitgeist sporting event that's 864 00:42:00,626 --> 00:42:03,346 Speaker 1: been non football that I can remember in some time. 865 00:42:03,506 --> 00:42:06,666 Speaker 1: And that's my takeaway on it. Now, the textuff it 866 00:42:06,706 --> 00:42:08,266 Speaker 1: didn't work for a lot of people. You saw the 867 00:42:08,346 --> 00:42:10,786 Speaker 1: immediate articles how the NFL is probably freaking out. I 868 00:42:10,826 --> 00:42:13,466 Speaker 1: don't know if that's true. I watched it from the 869 00:42:13,586 --> 00:42:17,426 Speaker 1: women's fight on to the end of the Jake Paul 870 00:42:17,506 --> 00:42:18,946 Speaker 1: Tyson fight, so I watched for about two and a 871 00:42:18,986 --> 00:42:21,066 Speaker 1: half hours on my phone. 872 00:42:21,266 --> 00:42:23,786 Speaker 5: And I heard the women's one before. It was incredible, 873 00:42:24,266 --> 00:42:24,706 Speaker 5: was I heard? 874 00:42:24,746 --> 00:42:29,306 Speaker 1: This was great? Awesome, And I look, if I'm going 875 00:42:29,386 --> 00:42:32,866 Speaker 1: to be sports media critic, I didn't need Rosie Perez 876 00:42:33,106 --> 00:42:35,506 Speaker 1: as the announcer. I didn't need Cedric the entertainer. But 877 00:42:35,506 --> 00:42:38,626 Speaker 1: I don't know what I wanted instead. Like I don't know, 878 00:42:39,266 --> 00:42:42,706 Speaker 1: you know, and it felt sort of it felt a 879 00:42:42,826 --> 00:42:47,346 Speaker 1: little bit like stunt type stuff. But all things considered, 880 00:42:48,186 --> 00:42:50,186 Speaker 1: when Mike Tyson's coming out of the tunnel and he's 881 00:42:50,226 --> 00:42:52,146 Speaker 1: got no one walking with him and it's just him 882 00:42:52,186 --> 00:42:54,626 Speaker 1: in his shorts and he's like, let's go, Like I 883 00:42:54,706 --> 00:42:58,146 Speaker 1: had a rush and some nostalgia, and I had about 884 00:42:58,226 --> 00:43:02,786 Speaker 1: thirty different group text chains talking about this fight, thirty 885 00:43:02,826 --> 00:43:05,826 Speaker 1: different Like we're talking NFL people talking friends from high school, 886 00:43:05,866 --> 00:43:09,346 Speaker 1: friends from friends from New York City, like, and it's 887 00:43:09,386 --> 00:43:12,386 Speaker 1: one in the morning on a Friday night. So I 888 00:43:12,426 --> 00:43:15,026 Speaker 1: guess my takeaway is that like platform matters. I don't 889 00:43:15,066 --> 00:43:19,226 Speaker 1: think that's the case if that's on Amazon or Hulu 890 00:43:19,746 --> 00:43:22,506 Speaker 1: or behind a paywall on ESPN Plus. Like the very 891 00:43:22,586 --> 00:43:28,386 Speaker 1: next night, you had the UFC, similar hours, similar appeal, 892 00:43:29,026 --> 00:43:31,386 Speaker 1: and there was a lot of buzz around that and 893 00:43:31,666 --> 00:43:35,266 Speaker 1: Trump being there with Elon and RFK and the whole 894 00:43:35,346 --> 00:43:38,706 Speaker 1: thing like became the cultural zeitgeist moment. But I didn't 895 00:43:38,746 --> 00:43:42,506 Speaker 1: feel like everyone was rushing their phones to watch or 896 00:43:42,626 --> 00:43:45,386 Speaker 1: talk about John Jones in that fight. It was more 897 00:43:45,426 --> 00:43:48,586 Speaker 1: about the stuff surrounding it, but the fight itself, Like 898 00:43:49,146 --> 00:43:50,826 Speaker 1: and it opens up doors. I was with Gronk on 899 00:43:50,946 --> 00:43:53,546 Speaker 1: Sunday and Shaq, I don't know what he was going for, 900 00:43:53,666 --> 00:43:55,666 Speaker 1: but he's like, I'm gonna fight Gronk. Basketball was football, 901 00:43:55,666 --> 00:43:56,986 Speaker 1: and like I had several people be like, is Gronk 902 00:43:57,026 --> 00:43:58,666 Speaker 1: fighting Shack? Because I would watch that. And I talked 903 00:43:58,706 --> 00:44:02,106 Speaker 1: to Gronk the next day because he flew into LA 904 00:44:02,266 --> 00:44:04,546 Speaker 1: on Saturday, and I'm like, are you fighting Shack? He's 905 00:44:04,586 --> 00:44:06,706 Speaker 1: like no, Like I had no idea where he was going. 906 00:44:06,746 --> 00:44:08,466 Speaker 1: Then we had fun with them, like would you fight Shack? 907 00:44:08,506 --> 00:44:10,946 Speaker 1: He's like maybe if the payday was like appropriate, But 908 00:44:10,986 --> 00:44:13,386 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm in on that, Like I would watch 909 00:44:13,426 --> 00:44:17,306 Speaker 1: Shack versus grom could I don't know. I don't know. 910 00:44:17,746 --> 00:44:21,786 Speaker 1: I think Netflix as for as much crap they got 911 00:44:21,906 --> 00:44:23,586 Speaker 1: for like buffering issues, I thought it was a major 912 00:44:23,626 --> 00:44:28,026 Speaker 1: win like big, big viewers and kind of captured the 913 00:44:28,146 --> 00:44:31,186 Speaker 1: cultural zeitgeist in a world where everything is so fragmented 914 00:44:31,746 --> 00:44:32,506 Speaker 1: and I. 915 00:44:32,906 --> 00:44:34,346 Speaker 4: I mean, I said, I had a couple of friends 916 00:44:34,386 --> 00:44:36,266 Speaker 4: that we we went and had dinner beforehand. We went 917 00:44:36,346 --> 00:44:40,666 Speaker 4: to Speedy Romeo's and other great great pizza Brooklyn Pizza place, 918 00:44:41,066 --> 00:44:42,546 Speaker 4: and then we went and tried to watch it I 919 00:44:42,746 --> 00:44:45,946 Speaker 4: don't think in my six seven years of living in 920 00:44:46,426 --> 00:44:48,746 Speaker 4: New York, I've ever had someone reach out to me 921 00:44:48,826 --> 00:44:49,466 Speaker 4: like do you want to. 922 00:44:49,506 --> 00:44:51,506 Speaker 1: Watch and watch? Do you want to watch a game? 923 00:44:51,986 --> 00:44:55,146 Speaker 5: Like yeah, I mean like I'll go watch football games, 924 00:44:55,226 --> 00:44:55,826 Speaker 5: basketball game. 925 00:44:56,106 --> 00:44:58,346 Speaker 1: But that's like yeah, yeah, yeah. 926 00:44:58,626 --> 00:45:00,386 Speaker 5: So the fact that it was even a thing people 927 00:45:00,466 --> 00:45:01,946 Speaker 5: were interested in, that's a big deal. 928 00:45:02,506 --> 00:45:02,746 Speaker 1: Yeah. 929 00:45:02,866 --> 00:45:04,826 Speaker 5: And I didn't even know there was a UFC fight 930 00:45:04,906 --> 00:45:06,586 Speaker 5: the next night, so clearly that. 931 00:45:06,666 --> 00:45:10,466 Speaker 1: Didn't the same, no doubt. Okay, so let's see Netflix 932 00:45:10,586 --> 00:45:12,826 Speaker 1: is the Christmas Day games? We had Annie Boson last 933 00:45:12,866 --> 00:45:17,026 Speaker 1: week talking about them to major games, Steelers versus Chiefs, 934 00:45:17,586 --> 00:45:19,786 Speaker 1: followed by Texans versus Ravens. I think all four of 935 00:45:19,826 --> 00:45:22,626 Speaker 1: those teams are going to the playoffs. A lot of 936 00:45:22,666 --> 00:45:25,466 Speaker 1: memes about buffering issues, but I bet bet you this, 937 00:45:25,706 --> 00:45:26,906 Speaker 1: bet you everyone's watching. 938 00:45:26,826 --> 00:45:28,706 Speaker 5: They'll have it figured out by then, for sure, Like 939 00:45:28,906 --> 00:45:29,826 Speaker 5: anything we'll. 940 00:45:29,706 --> 00:45:33,986 Speaker 1: See across our fingers. Yeah. And if they don't, they don't, Yeah, 941 00:45:34,546 --> 00:45:37,546 Speaker 1: Like all right, the game will still be played.

Another monologue 943 00:45:43,306 --> 00:45:45,226 Speaker 1: about the Jets, a three and eight team.
