Oh Joe, you had a very eventful 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:12.480 day yesterday. You were supposed to go. 0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:16.480 Hey, listen, yesterday was you know. I'm not gonna call 0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:18.160 it bad. I'm not gonna call it bad because they 0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:21.800 have patience. But this is a tail testament as to 0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:25.560 why I normally fly spirit. This is why I fly spirit, 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:28.600 because I don't run into issues like yes you do. 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:33.919 Oh, cho froze for a second. Let's see if we 0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:37.200 can get his Wi Fi back going again. But he froze. 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:40.640 Hopefully he gets that rectified. But I'm gonna let the 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:44.160 things that important listen, listen, stay froze. 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:46.560 Yes you're back. 0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:49.280 I mean, I mean, I'm in a hotel and uh 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:51.280 in New York. That's not supposed to happen. 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:53.200 Huh why not? 0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.000 I mean because when I when you look at the 0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:57.840 prices in some of the some of the states where 0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:00.600 people are moving from because the cost of living is 0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:03.080 very expensive, I think the the Wi Fi should work 0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:04.080 in this area that I'm in. 0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:05.040 Or am I wrong? 0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:08.120 No, I'm sure it does work. But I mean, like, 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:10.880 hold on, I thought you had patience. I mean, sometimes, 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:13.480 do you know, flights get delayed, things happened. 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:16.560 Well wait, wait a minute, you're right, so that that 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:18.560 did happen yesterday, and it was because of the weather. 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:19.520 It was because of the weather. 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:21.760 So but the fact that not only is the weather 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:23.880 but I was at the airport since four o'clock, so 0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:25.320 I would have I would have been in New York 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:27.200 and I would have been able to do yesterday's show. 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:29.479 But due to the weather, the fact that they kept 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.120 us there the entire day, making us believe at some 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:35.080 point we were going to get to New York. But 0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:37.440 we boarded a plane at twelve thirty at night after 0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:40.520 being there for what what six seven eight hours a day, 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:42.680 and then we board the plane at twelve thirty at night, 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:45.960 and then only to tell us to de plane because 0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:49.040 the flight staff had already. 0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:50.920 Went over the amount of hours that they can work 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:51.440 for a day. 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:54.440 I mean that that that that that hurt that that 0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:57.320 hurt me, So I mean I wouldn't I'm on tripping. 0:04:57.440 --> 0:04:59.880 I went to there in the Miami Airport, there's a 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:04.000 section where you can smoke cigars. It's in D thirty four, 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.480 like a little Fridays. I went over there for two 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:08.400 hours and smoked the cigar, and so I wasn't tripping. 0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:10.640 But everybody else listen, there was a plane. There was 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:12.480 a fight at the back of the plane. There was 0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:13.680 a fight at the back of the plane. As soon 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:16.800 as a guy said we got to get off because 0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:19.320 we can't fly anymore and there is no replacement crew. 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:23.560 Everybody upset, everybody, you know, screaming and hollering, and I 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:25.520 felt really bad. I felt really bad for the gay 0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:28.160 agent because they got they got the brunt of it. 0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:29.120 They got the brunt of it. 0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:31.320 Why couldn't you tell us and just cancel the damn 0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:33.200 flight and have us sit at the goddamn airport for 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:34.920 six seven hours whatever it may have been. 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:36.640 And I really felt bad. 0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:40.520 And again, even though it was a weather delay, Spirit 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:45.280 would have handled it differently. Spirit would get out even 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:46.000 if I won't get out. 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:47.599 They were they were going to let me know. 0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:52.720 And if everybody broke not not brochures, vouchers, they would 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:54.920 have give everybody vouchers. Listen, we don't want you to 0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:56.960 see you at the airport all day. 0:05:57.000 --> 0:05:58.840 We have your phone numbers, we have your information. 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:02.640 We'll email you and let you know when to come 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.240 back to the airport, not have you sitting there all day. 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:10.040 And listen, it's it's unfortunate, unfortunate incident. Mother nature is unpredictable, 0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:13.160 and that's what happened. But you know what, I'm here today, 0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:14.280 I'm hyped. 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:15.480 I feel good. 0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:18.000 I have a surprise for you because you didn't You 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:18.400 didn't know. 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.719 I didn't think it could happen, but it did happen, 0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:23.640 and we'll get to that later on. I just before 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.200 I keep going, lebron, thank you. I appreciate it to 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.719 be able to give me something like that, which is 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:33.520 unbelievable with milestone, and to think of me and uh 0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:34.800 and bless me with that gift. 0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:36.040 I appreciate it. 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:36.880 Oh to. 0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:38.800 I think we've all been in a situation where we 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.720 were rated, waited around for an extended period of time 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:44.760 if we were gonna get something, only to find out 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:46.600 that we weren't going to get it. And you could 0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:48.919 have saved us some time. Why didn't you go ahead? 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.600 Why didn't you go ahead? Tell me then it wasn't 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:54.880 gonna go down like I anticipated. So that's not the 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:57.400 first time, it probably won't be the last time that 0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:00.360 there was an anticipation about getting something or getting out 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:03.360 somewhere and it didn't happen. But like you said, you 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:06.080 have more patients than I do. Because uh, I need 0:07:06.080 --> 0:07:07.440 you to give me some answers because I want to 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:09.159 get on home. You and you would have been upset. 0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:13.760 Yell, yeah, i'd have been upset. 0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:18.080 Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I'm just I think for. 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.000 Me, I went to I went to the sky Club 0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:22.400 because I normally fly Delta and so I probably went 0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:25.280 to the sky Club. But to be that, well, hell, 0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:27.080 that just happened to us. What the hell am I 0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:30.280 talking about? We just had a situation happened during the 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:32.760 National Championship game. We was out there in Houston and 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:37.280 delayed for like eight nine hours. It happened to be. 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:39.800 The thing was, you know, we were in the room, 0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:42.840 you know, had a little had a little card call, 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.320 you know, a little dark skinned card that I was 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:47.680 able to go into. We got a little room to ourselves. 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:52.280 But other than that, right, mm hmm, it had been bad. 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:54.800 I look, don't I don't. I don't look. 0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:58.120 I spent more time at airports the last six months 0:07:58.160 --> 0:07:59.960 than I have probably in the last six years. 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:02.880 But it's a you know, it's a part of the job. 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:04.360 It's a part of my job and what I have 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:07.680 to do, not only for for ESPN to fly and 0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:09.400 have to go to New York from time to time 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:11.960 and with Steven a like we take the show on 0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:15.040 the road, but for La Portier that really has me 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:18.200 a traveling a lot because I'm the marketing arm of 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:21.440 la Portier and show up at these bottle signings Roger 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:25.360 Wilco's Total Wines and things of that nature, Gallo have 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.400 sales meeting, Eagle Rock had sales meeting, and give a 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:30.600 pip talk to the staff. So that's a part of 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:32.920 what I have to do. So I'm on the road 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:36.400 a lot. But I understand that that's what I signed 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:38.120 up for when I wanted to be a part of this. 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:40.800 Uh become an owner, co owner and. 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:45.120 Shaved by Laportier.

Yeah, you know you know 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:47.560 that not walk the bag because you ain't boy for me. 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:49.560 You need this, you know. 0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:51.800 It's it's funny when we had when we had French 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:54.800 Fried serenity for those of the them know, when we 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:59.720 had my daughter, I bought it a navy blue double 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:03.040 X at the diaper bag, right, and I doubled back 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:04.880 Christmas time and got the gold because the goal that 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:07.200 just came back I hadn't seen a long time. Because 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:11.360 we got the god damn it boy bag. I I 0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:14.839 forgot what you call it. We got the goal. It's 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:17.680 the square. I can't I'm losing my mind right now 0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:20.040 on what the bag is actually called. 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:21.120 But anyway, we. 0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:24.120 Got the yeah yeah, not not not the big, not 0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.199 the Xcel had the small the boy bag. Okay, we 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:29.240 got the smaller and smaller gold. But when I saw 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:30.920 that goal and I was like, oh shit, I ain't 0:10:30.960 --> 0:10:33.560 never seen this. And then when you said or it 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:36.200 came out in twenty nineteen, I had no idea because 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:37.960 all I knew was the boy bag, you know, the 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:38.880 all gold boy bag. 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:39.400 They had it. 0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:41.800 It was limited uh after that. 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:44.000 But anyway, but let we can go ahead, We can 0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:46.120 go ahead. 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:47.040 I did play. 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:50.240 I ain't got it. You got it? You got it. 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:53.320 Time for our first topic of the day, it is 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:55.920 the news cap were right up. 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:03.240 Wow. 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:08.360 The Broncos informed Russell Wilson they're going to be releasing him. 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:15.200 His releasal would trigger an NFL record eighty five million 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:19.160 and dead cap. It's the largest dead cap hit in 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:24.000 league history, bigger than the previous two records combined. The 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:28.400 previous record was Matt Ryan forty million, five hundred and 0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:32.760 thirty thousand and Aaron Rodgers forty million, three hundred and 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:36.280 ten thousand. So if you combine those two together, they're 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:39.480 not as large as the money that the Broncos are 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.800 going to have to eat that they can't use for 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:45.400 cap space on Russell Wilson as a matter of fact, 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:48.480 if my math serves me correct, they're not going to 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:49.720 even get to the extension. 0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:51.720 So they let him go. 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:56.040 Russell made one hundred and twenty four million dollars for 0:11:56.120 --> 0:12:00.560 two years of work with the Broncos. This is what 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.280 the Seahawks got out of this deal. The Seahawks got 0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:06.400 a first rounder, a second rounder, a fifth round pick 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:09.200 in twenty twenty two. They got a first and a 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:13.080 second round pick in twenty twenty three. They also got 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:18.640 the quarterback what's the quarterback from Missouri? Forget his name? 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:22.679 They got no offense the Broncos tight end. They got 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:24.960 Shelby Harris, who was a defense who was a young 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:25.880 defensive tackle? 0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:29.600 Look is that his name? What's his name? 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:31.960 I forget his name? Ask what's his name? Quarterback for 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:33.760 the Broncos. Oh, Drew Law? 0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:34.560 Drew Law. 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:39.080 Yeah, So the Broncos paid russ one hundred and twenty 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:41.520 four million in salary, gave them no offense. 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:43.400 Who was the Broncos first round draft pick? 0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:48.400 Drew Lock, Shelby Harris, and two first round picks, two 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:53.000 second round picks, and a fifth round pick. To say 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:56.679 this was an epic fail for the Broncos would be 0:12:56.720 --> 0:13:01.160 an understatement, A great game for the Seahawks for the 0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:05.200 Seahawks because the Seahawks weren't going to pay that money. 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:08.640 They weren't going to give Russ the extension that he wanted, right, 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:12.320 And so when you can think about it, I don't 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.200 want this and I can turn it into something epic. 0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:17.080 So just let's just say, for the sake of argument, 0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:19.600 oh Joe, you got a cold that you no longer 0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:21.600 want to wear? If you know what somebody say, Oh 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:24.400 Joe man, how give you fifty thousand for that col 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:29.600 You're like, okay, hell, I was looking to get rid 0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:33.040 of it anyway. Right, That's what the Seattle Seahawks did 0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:35.880 for Russ. So what are your thoughts about I'll chiming 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:38.320 after you. What are your thoughts about what the Broncos did? 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:49.000 Oh that's the nature, that's the nature of the business. Yeah, 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:53.760 hoping and expecting to get well, I blocked out, No, 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:56.719 you're good, you good, okay, but you're scared me for 0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:58.120 a minute. Again. 0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:00.560 It's a gambling business in a sense when it comes 0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:03.760 to owners and investing in players, because you never knew 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:06.280 what you're gonna get. But what they were hoping to get, 0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:08.680 what we all thought we were going to get was 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:11.040 the Russell Wilson of old that were used were used 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:15.040 to sing with the Seattle Seahawks. Very good, very good, 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:19.480 very very good quarterback, obviously nine time Pro Bowler, Super 0:14:19.480 --> 0:14:21.560 Bowl winners, super Bowl forty eight, when they when they 0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:25.080 beat when they beat the Broncos. To me what I think, 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:28.360 I don't think they gave Russell Wilson enough time to 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:31.840 come in and change the organization in the direction in 0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:33.200 which they wanted it to go. 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:35.760 I think the owners that don't. 0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:39.360 Have a football background, they don't understand what it takes, 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:42.600 the time it takes to turn the organization around. 0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.000 They wanted Russell Wilson to come in and be this. 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:48.040 Ungodly savior and flip the script and all of a 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:49.680 sudden make them contenders right away. 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:52.280 That's not the way it works. That's not the way 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:52.760 it works. 0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:55.600 I think they had a good quarterback now that they 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:58.440 put themselves behind the eight ball, because now you're not 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:00.680 going to have anyone at the helm, and you basically 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:02.200 started all the way back over when you could have 0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:06.080 kept Russe Wilson, what's right I would have done, understanding 0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:09.640 what he's done, understanding the experience that he has, playoff win, 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:12.760 playoff playoff contender, being in Super Bowls. 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:15.640 He knows how to get there, he knows how to win. 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.200 Let's build around him and have a little patience. 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:21.720 People that are not football owners or have football backgrounds 0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:24.080 are very impatient, and then they can spin their way 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:25.320 into winning right away. 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:27.680 And that's not going to happen now. 0:15:27.760 --> 0:15:30.720 As far as Russell Wilson the future, to me, what 0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:34.880 makes the most sense right over there in Pittsburgh. 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:37.680 Right over there in Pittsburgh, why not. 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:41.760 You're going to a historic franchise that is known for 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:46.080 doing what winning Lombardi Trophies. They have everything you need 0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:52.000 right around. Great running game, super Bowl winning coach, great receivers, 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:57.120 hell of a defense. It just makes sense, no matter 0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:59.360 what anyone else says, it just makes sense to me 0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:01.560 as a propose to any of the other places that 0:16:01.600 --> 0:16:02.040 he can go. 0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:09.640 Sometimes, Oach, Oh, a lot of times, I I phrase 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:12.920 things and I use analogies, and I use analogies a 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:15.400 lot when it comes to relationships. Yes, sir, this was 0:16:15.440 --> 0:16:17.760 a relationship. And we hear this all the time. Well, 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:20.440 somebody had to pay their wife twenty million, thirty million 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.440 dollars man, I'll to keper. Well, if you're not happy, 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:27.800 why would you keep them? That's the Broncos situation. He's like, Man, 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:29.920 it's gonna cost them eighty five million in dead cap. 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.240 They're not happy with Russ. They don't believe in Russ, 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:37.720 so why would you keep it? So in this situation, 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:41.480 I won't. I want players to understand. You see what 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:44.760 they're willing to do. Now they'll eat eighty five million 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:48.640 in which money they can't use for future players for players. 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:50.760 But if you ask them for eighty five million, they 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:54.240 ain't got it. Fas you see that, Come on, c 0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:57.880 I you see our teams find money and do they 0:16:58.000 --> 0:16:59.360 basically throw eighty five million? 0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:01.080 That Okay, they're. 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:04.840 Paying Russell Wilson thirty nine million this year and he 0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:07.520 won't take a snap for the Broncos. Now Russ can 0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:09.840 go out there in the open market and maybe get 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:13.280 another deal and he might make eighty million dollars this 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:15.639 year with the thirty nine plus the money that he 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:16.720 gets from another team. 0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:17.760 Yeah. 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:22.440 So this notion that, oh man, team, teams are always 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:27.160 gonna do what's in the best interests of the team players. 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:30.400 Please do what's in the best interest of you. I'm 0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:33.119 not telling you to go, I'm not telling you the state. 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:35.640 But what I will tell you is that you need 0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:38.119 to do what's in the best interest to you. And 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:42.000 you know, oh, I gave him a hometown discount. Teams 0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:46.200 never give sponsors, They never give advertisers. 0:17:46.400 --> 0:17:47.280 They didn't give. 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:52.119 ESPN, they didn't give Fox, they didn't give CBS, NBC, Amazon, 0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:53.920 they didn't give Peacock. 0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:55.840 They didn't give them no discount. 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:58.960 Say you know what, guys, Hey, they say, CBS y'all, 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:02.119 y'all been coming football for sixty years.

But the team always want 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:19.199 players to give them a deal, and players like, yeah, 0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:20.639 you're right, I'm gonna do it in the best interest 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:24.280 of the team. Yeah no, that's not your team. If 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:27.240 the team said Johnson, do us in the best interest 0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:30.800 to Johnson, cut that's the team that's helping the team 0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:33.800 but that team said Bronco, that team say Cowboys or 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:38.879 Eagles and Giants or whatever the players say, and they 0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:42.280 take that money and do what right in their pocket? 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:44.359 No nothing to take that back, go right back to 0:18:44.400 --> 0:18:48.600 the bank and draw interest.

Yeah, if they win, you know, damn well, 0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:10.240 they're going to increase the prices. If fans go right 0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:13.960 along with it. Yeah, they don't even know.
