10
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 2: about Stu Gotts in company and I get an opportunity

Speaker 2: the week is how on the fly things just developed,

13
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,840
Speaker 2: They just happen. Love that, Okay, and then it turns

14
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 2: into gold. I'm not saying this is gold. I'm not

15
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 2: even saying this is going to turn into a bronze. Okay,

16
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 2: this may be like eighth place at the Olympics, but uh,

17
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 2: we got the Weekender come out. Yeah, that's all the Weekender.

18
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: Do you like that name?

19
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 4: It sounds with this music, It's like tying into Magic

20
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 4: City Monday Weekender Outside.

21
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 2: I got really ticked off with ESPN on Saturday night.

22
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 5: Just really let it out. It's a safe space.

23
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 2: A lot of great college soops. Sorry, Iowa Sam speaking

24
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 2: of the weekend, Let's just get the let's get the

25
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: let's get the obvious out of the way. I mean,

26
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 2: I felt like we've already ignored it for an hour.

27
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 2: How does Iowa lose at Penn State on Saturday? How

28
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 2: does how does that go down?

29
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 6: I they you know, they got uh, they got the

30
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 6: nice win over the Buckeyes and then they go on

31
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 6: the road.

32
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 7: I don't know.

33
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 6: It was a you know, kind of a noon it

34
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 6: was a noon tip off there, sure happy. I mean,

35
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 6: none of that, None of that explains a way why

36
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 6: they lost. I mean they lost.

37
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: Now on the bubble. Yeah, well, you can't lose any

38
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: you can't lose games that you aren't supposed to lose,

39
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: and now's the time of year.

40
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 7: But I know it's not good.

41
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: The good thing for you. Or there were eighty seven

42
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 2: more important college basketball games. No, I'm kidding.

43
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 7: It wasn't that.

44
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 2: There wasn't that many, but there were a lot. There

45
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 2: were a lot of games. Are Patt Doug Gottlieb getting

46
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 2: a win against Youngstown State then out They already locked

47
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: up a home court playoff the conference tournament game, which

48
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 2: is tomorrow, but they got to win on Saturday. We

49
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,519
Speaker 2: had the Ohio State highlight earlier, the win over Purdue.

50
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: That was Sunday. But on Saturday, we had number two

51
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 2: Arizona routing Kansas. That's a big twelve matchup, It's a

52
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: big time college basketball game. At the same time, Texasttack

53
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: without J. T. Toppin goes to number four Iowa State

54
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: wins that game, and so the Red Raiders, without maybe

55
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 2: college basketball's best player, continues to win and gets a

56
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: huge upset against the top five team. There was a

57
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 2: lot going on. Yukon was on the ropes, was seat

58
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 2: in hall, while Duke just completely destroyed Virginia. The reason

59
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 2: I'm bringing that up is none of that rose to

60
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 2: the occasion to be in Sports Center's first segment on

61
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 2: Saturday night. And as I was watching after the Saint

62
00:02:55,440 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 2: Mary's Gails took down number eight Gonzaga to get an

63
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: another share of the wcc regular season crown, I sat back,

64
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 2: saw my buddy Sean Farnham talking to some Saint Mary's

65
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: players after the game part of the broadcast. Then they

66
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 2: threw it to the studio because it's time for some

67
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 2: Sports Center, right, We're gonna see what happened with Arizona

68
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 2: and Kansas. We're gonna see what happened with Texas Tech

69
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 2: and that upset. We may even see why Iowa lost,

70
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 2: but you'd have to apparently wait forty five minutes to

71
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 2: do so, because they started off Sports Center with the

72
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: Lakers and Warriors, which was a non competitive game. But

73
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 2: I will give you a pass on having that game

74
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 2: because it was an ABC game and it's the Lakers

75
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 2: and Warriors, Lakers gonna win. You bring on Kendrick Perkins.

76
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 2: You talk to him also this weekend. And I said

77
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 2: this yesterday, and this bothered me and it's still bothering

78
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 2: me today. ESPN then transitioned to the WWEES Elimination Chamber,

79
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: which was broadcast on their other sites where you could

80
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: purchase and watch if you paid for the ESPN streaming service.

81
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: I believe you could watch Elimination Chamber. But they not

82
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 2: only treated it as like game highlights, they then did

83
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: an interview with the eventual winner, Randy Orton afterwards, like

84
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 2: a postgame interview, treating it as if it was a

85
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: baseball game or a basketball game. And their athleticism is

86
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 2: off the charts, their strength is off the charts. Their

87
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: showmanship is off the charts, charts, it's amazing. But when

88
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 2: you know the outcome beforehand, it does not fall in

89
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 2: the window of SportsCenter. I'm sorry, that's what your first take,

90
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 2: that's what your NBA today, that's when your NFL Live is.

91
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 2: If you want to do a wrestling show, that's fine,

92
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: But when you're breaking down what just happened in a

93
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 2: WWE event because it was on your network, in what

94
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 2: was your staple for so many years, it's offensive to me, Monci,

95
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 2: because you could have given the results at one o'clock

96
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 2: when Triple H knew the results, I was telling the

97
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: wrestlers what was going to happen, right, because that's what

98
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 2: this is sports, and all this news is stuff as

99
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: it's happening. This is predetermined outcomes from a script. That

100
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: is not what Sports Center is about. So I don't

101
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 2: care if you have the deals with the WWE. There

102
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: are different places you can put this content. It shouldn't

103
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 2: be in Sports Center. And you know what was after that,

104
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 2: the NFL combine, which I as much as I love

105
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 2: the NFL, don't care about the combine. But that's a

106
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 2: me problem. That's none of them problem. That's a me problem.

107
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: They then went and spoke with Lewis Rittick. They showed

108
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 2: a highlight of a meaningless college basketball game because it

109
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: had a buzzer beater, and then they ended up going

110
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 2: to break man.

111
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 5: I would have changed the channel so fast.

112
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 2: I kept it on because I was just amazed at

113
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: what I was seeing. So when we talk about the weekender,

114
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 2: I'm sitting there late after that college basketball game, wanting

115
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 2: to watch everything that happened. And there was a full

116
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 2: day in sports. Yeah that was And they have the WWE.

117
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 2: As popular as it is to have that takeover Sports Center,

118
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 2: I just had a really big problem.

119
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 4: With that's so wrong on so many levels by ESPN.

120
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,239
Speaker 4: If I if any night, and this is for the weekend,

121
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 4: but if any night I sit on my couch and

122
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 4: I just put on Sports Center, It's like, give me

123
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 4: a recap of what I've missed. Please give me the recap, right,

124
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 4: give me all the highlights. That's what I'm expecting to get.

125
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 4: And if you're gonna talk to me and give me

126
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 4: what seems like a package of.

127
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 5: WWE, I would be so annoyed. I mean, like, I

128
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 5: what's the boy of this? This is what sports? What

129
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 5: sports centers about.

130
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 4: Correct like you're supposed to be giving me the scores

131
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 4: and the highlights that I missed in a quick and

132
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 4: entertaining fashion.

133
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 5: Not this. I would have changed the channel so fast.

134
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 5: I would have been so so on.

135
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 2: There's so many different outlets and for whatever reason, and

136
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 2: maybe I'm wrong, Maybe I'm the fool. Maybe because Sports

137
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 2: Center has changed throughout the years, it's not what it

138
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: once was, So maybe the joke's on me. But I

139
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 2: just know when we're at the news desk and these

140
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: things are happening, there were nothing like that would be announcement.

141
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 2: There was a segment in show Jason Smith and Mike

142
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 2: Harmon are sitting here talking about what just happened on

143
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 2: Monday Night Raw or whatever the case is. That's fine,

144
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 2: that's within the context of their show. I wouldn't expect

145
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 2: Steve de Sager or you, or Isaac or myself when

146
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 2: they throw to you for the latest, is to tell

147
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 2: you what happened in that evening's episode. It's just not

148
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 2: it's predetermined, and it's a drama that's played out through wrestling,

149
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 2: and the lines are so blurred that it just bothered

150
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 2: me to the core. And I don't know if it's

151
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 2: the sixteen year old Sports Center fan or if it's

152
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: the forty nine year old that I am now on

153
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 2: which one was offended, But they both were offended, and

154
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: I just could not believe. And it's nothing personal with

155
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 2: the w I love the pops. I love it when

156
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: the Undertaker lights go out and all of a sudden

157
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 2: he's a pairing in the ring like that stuff is awesome.

158
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 2: It has nothing to do about that. It's just about

159
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: what that that content is and how now it's being

160
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 2: perceived as actual real news.

161
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, No, it's it's a scripted show. It's a

162
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 4: scripted sports yes.

163
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 5: Show, and it always has been. This isn't like new

164
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 5: and ration. I've never been into it, never, but so

165
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 5: many people are. But it's a it's a scripted show.

166
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 5: So that's I would have been.

167
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 4: Very disappointed if I would have put on Sports Center

168
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: and that's what I was being shown.

169
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,559
Speaker 2: It's Stu gottson Company live here on Fox Sports Radio.

170
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 2: Jason Stewart is hanging out with this as well. What's

171
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: going on? Jay?

172
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 7: To me, this is always the This is the problem

173
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 7: that ESPN has had for a long time. So ESPN there,

174
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,719
Speaker 7: what is it their franchise show. Is that what they

175
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 7: call it the Sports Center? Is that a franchise show

176
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 7: or am I okay?

177
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 2: Whatever?

178
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 7: Staple, Yeah, there's staple was you come to us for news,

179
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 7: you come to us for the highlights. But once they

180
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 7: started buying up the rights to sports, then they started

181
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 7: reshuffling the editorial decisions of these of news. And if

182
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 7: you're going to be the gatekeeper for news and you're

183
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 7: going to prioritize what's important, then you have a conflict

184
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 7: of interest if you're putting wrestle in your A block

185
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 7: or even your B block, because you're telling the world

186
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 7: that this isn't necessarily important. It's we just paid a

187
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 7: lot of money for this product and we want to

188
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 7: promote it. And to me, that's where ESPN in general

189
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 7: gets into trouble. If there was precedents set for this,

190
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 7: In other words, if the first forty years of Sports

191
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 7: Center covered wrestling, that would be one thing. But I

192
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 7: think this is a very new thing because they recently

193
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 7: purchased the rights, and to me, that's kind of insulting

194
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 7: to someone who like makes editorial choices for a living

195
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 7: in sports that you're just it's such a shill for

196
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 7: the WWE.

197
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 2: That's a really, really great point because you didn't see

198
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 2: it twenty years ago. There weren't there weren't results being

199
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: displayed during that. Now they're actually talking about sports in

200
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 2: the sports. So when we sit there and we have

201
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: arguments and say why and I'm paraphrasing here because I

202
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 2: do believe that baseball is very healthy, but we say, wait, why,

203
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 2: why does what? Does nobody care about baseball? What's going

204
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 2: on with college basketball? Nobody care about that? Like they have.

205
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 2: They have such a huge role in a stranglehold on

206
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 2: the sports viewers that they can also dictate what can be,

207
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 2: you know, popular and unpopular. And I do think that

208
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 2: there are other waves and other opportunities to consume sports

209
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 2: social media wise, streaming wise, that can maybe overtake that,

210
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: but they had such a stranglehold on it that whatever

211
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 2: ESPN was talking about is what is important. And if

212
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 2: you weren't a league partner and with them, you likely

213
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 2: would suffer, and then there could be an overall conversation

214
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 2: of what's going on. You see it, actually you see

215
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: it firsthand. With college basketball. You really do like there

216
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 2: was a while where I I think college basketball has

217
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 2: gotten better and I actually think that NIL has helped

218
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 2: the game transfer portal different story, but I think that

219
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 2: there are some good things that have come with all

220
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 2: of this, and I think that college basketball is more

221
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 2: popular than maybe it was a decade ago.

222
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 4: But I especially now, you know, at this time of year,

223
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 4: especially right now, I feel like is when people care

224
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 4: the most about college basketball leading into.

225
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, and to not have it in your first segment,

226
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 2: that's crazy, right, which, by the way, it was March

227
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 2: on the East Coast when this was airy, so like

228
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 2: the manness was there, madness was there, and it chose

229
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 2: to avoid it. That's that's kind of crazy.

230
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 5: That's crazy.

231
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 2: What got under my skin this weekend.

232
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 7: Another example of that, by the way, is that and

233
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 7: this has to do with sports, but it has to

234
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 7: do with how they prioritize things. All of us here

235
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 7: get ESPN notifications right as you have to if you

236
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 7: work in this industry, get ESPN's notifications to your phones.

237
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 7: I swear eight out of the last ten notifications have

238
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 7: been an update on the WNBA contract negotiation, and I

239
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 7: just don't think it raises to the level of a notification.

240
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 7: When it's done, you could let me know or when

241
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 7: it's not done and they're going to strike or whatever.

242
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 7: Let us know. But CBA negotiations that they shouldn't provide

243
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 7: updates on this. But it's only because ESPN's so much

244
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 7: wrapped up in this league.

245
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 8: Yep.

246
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 2: Correct, save it for NBA today, right, Like, that's that's it,

247
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 2: that's what it's for and we're getting feedback. Dan Eckles

248
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 2: tweets in nailed It sports Ander promoting results of WWE

249
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: with video and live interviews. Asinine, Yes, I also think

250
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: it's different. By the way, there was some drama and

251
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 2: j this is right up Jason's alley. When you have

252
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 2: TV networks in a local news say on ABC or NBC, Fox, CBS, whatever.

253
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: But if you're if you have a Jeopardy champion, there

254
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 2: was some drama when you would have a long running champion.

255
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,359
Speaker 2: You know, let's just say they won fifty straight episodes

256
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 2: and then they get beaten. Well, that show is on tape.

257
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 2: Does the news organization owe it to the audience to

258
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 2: tell you the results of that because such as streak happened?

259
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 2: Or do you save it for the show, And I

260
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 2: think you save it for the show. You let Jeopardy

261
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 2: play it out just because Jeopardy has recorded it at

262
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 2: a certain time and it's going to air, doesn't allow

263
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 2: you as a news entity. Darren Veller. I remember got

264
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: in hot water when one of the what maybe it

265
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: was Holtsauer who his streak got broken and he ended

266
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 2: up tweeting, and his his excuse for it was, well,

267
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 2: this aired in like Mobile, Alabama at like nine thirty

268
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 2: in the morning, so it was already exposed to some

269
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 2: sort of audience, And I don't think that that's in

270
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 2: the faith of it. And by the way, it's the

271
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 2: drama of the streak in the game playing along. It's

272
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: not like the news is giving you the answers you know,

273
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 2: necessarily to it. But that's to me, that's a different

274
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 2: thing than the WWE trying to tell us that this

275
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 2: is a real sort of thing. Plus, the streak, by

276
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 2: the way, is kind of a story that's going on,

277
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 2: not that the we's in the story, but it's just

278
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 2: an ongoing sort of drama that's carried out through the

279
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 2: script of the wrestlers.

280
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, soap opera.

281
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 2: So I think there's I think that there's a difference

282
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 2: when you see that there is Sam tweets in says

283
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: love the analysis and critique of Sports Center. So since

284
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 2: he's kind of moved away from Sports Center, watches you

285
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 2: know SVP. I think, yeah, Scott Vanpelt's amazing.

286
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 4: Absolutely, very enjoyable, but Sports Center has been changed like this.

287
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 5: Isn't that shocking that they did that? It's more disappointing, Yes,

288
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 5: you know what I mean.

289
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't know if it's as disappointing as being

290
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 2: turned down a one hundred times for an autograph, but

291
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 2: that also came to the level Jason Stewart this past weekend.

292
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 7: Did you guys see that the viral video what's his name, Shia.

293
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 5: Buff, Shia lab. Yeah.

294
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 7: Now he has his own sordid past. I know he's

295
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 7: kind of he's kind of a source of controversy. But

296
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 7: he did an interview with a guy named Andrew Callaghan Kalagan.

297
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 7: I don't know that. I'm sorry, Uh, this is what

298
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 7: he said as they're having an interview about Mike Piazza.

299
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 9: Remember trying to get Mike Piazza's autograph?

300
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 8: You know what I mean?

301
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 9: From my whole life, Mike Piazza were waiting outside the

302
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 9: every day this guy bro so yeah, we used to

303
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 9: go to Dodger games. Big Brothers program used to get

304
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 9: these tickets out. You go Dodger game. I mean all

305
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 9: of them. Dudes would be sitting in the parking lot.

306
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 9: Brent Butler always signed, Adeo Nomo always signed. Mike Piazza

307
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 9: just a cold you're a bro.

308
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 7: How many times do you think he rejected signing it?

309
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 8: Every day?

310
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 2: Bro?

311
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 9: I did it for I used to go out there

312
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 9: ninety times, probably rejecting me ninety times.

313
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 8: So what it did was.

314
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 7: I'm gonna sign them all.

315
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 9: So when I got on, it was like, Yo, Mike Piazza.

316
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 2: He should sign his autograph Shia lah Bouf and then yeah,

317
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 2: f Mike Piazza on the card.

318
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, and then send it to him.

319
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 2: I got this even Stevens poster was he not even

320
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 2: Stephens Hee Stevens. He's right when and it may not

321
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 2: be fair, but to his credit, it wasn't a one off.

322
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: It wasn't a one time. This guy didn't sign for

323
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 2: whatever reason. He's like, I was out there a time.

324
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 2: I can tell you the players that did, and I

325
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 2: can tell you the players that didn't. And so there's

326
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: a part of it that I I respect. In that nature,

327
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: sometimes you just miss an athlete that doesn't work or

328
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 2: whatever that happens. But if he's going to back it

329
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 2: up to say like we were always there with tickets, yeah,

330
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 2: great job.

331
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 7: But it's a long time complaint that parents or kids

332
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 7: or what have you, they have this they hold this

333
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 7: grudge against the one guy that didn't sign an autograph.

334
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 7: And I always defend the athletes in this situation in

335
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 7: that if they sign one hundred autographs and they don't

336
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 7: sign yours, they're not a bad guy, but it does

337
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 7: make an impression on that one person, which puts the

338
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 7: athletes in an impossible situation.

339
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a.

340
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 4: Lot of responsibility when you're an athlete or just a celebrity,

341
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 4: like to be caught in the wrong moment, like you're

342
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 4: having a bad day and for three minutes you just

343
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 4: to get out on the wrong person.

344
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 5: It's hard, it's it's not fair, but it's part of

345
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 5: the job.

346
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 10: I'm glad you guys play the audio so our audience

347
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 10: could hear it in full contexts. But it sounded to

348
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 10: me like this guy was part of a group of

349
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 10: kids hanging out, and so you know where the players

350
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 10: go in and out, the players parking lot at Dodger stadium.

351
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 10: I thought that this was just a one on one rejection,

352
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 10: which I would have been devastated, But it sounds like

353
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 10: he was among just a group of people young Mike, Mike.

354
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,239
Speaker 5: Mike correct. Back then it was a constant thing. They

355
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 5: would wait for them. Now that's not a thing. Now

356
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 5: you can't like wait for the player, wait for the players.

357
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 10: So with that in mind, I don't take that particularly

358
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 10: personally as if it was just a one on one rejection,

359
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 10: which again I never would have forgotten Cheryl Miller all.

360
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,440
Speaker 2: Right, but there had to have been at least some day.

361
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 2: Sorry Cheryl Miller, that was uncalled for.

362
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 5: You didn't need to catch a stretch, and that's people

363
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 5: never forget.

364
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 2: But Chilah Bouf, I hope was not at the end

365
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 2: of the line every single day that at some time

366
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 2: he was maybe the first of twenty right. Yeah, I

367
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 2: think that's that's his point, and if he's been there enough,

368
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 2: I think the numbers are at least in his favor. Yeah,

369
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 2: she's Maazi Boloanos, I'm Dan Buyer, a little taste of

Speaker 2: Yes I can get this. I can get this straight.

393
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 2: I can get this straight. Adam Kaplan, our NFL in center,

394
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 2: joins us now inside the Birds Podcast Sports Grid at

395
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,440
Speaker 2: Kaplan NFL. I talked to you yesterday, Adam. We did

396
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 2: not have a trade going down in the NFL. We

397
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 2: do today. What's behind the Texans acquiring David Montgomery from

398
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions.

399
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 11: Yeah, let's unpack here. So let's get to the Texans.

400
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 11: The Texans do not have a starting running back. They

401
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 11: will though with David Montgomery once.

402
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 8: He passed the physical. He was acquired today.

403
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 11: So they like Woody Marx, but he's more of a

404
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 11: complimentary back. It did not work really work out with

405
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 11: Nick Chubbs. So this makes perfect sense. From their standpoint,

406
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 11: they needed a starting running back. They've got one. Montgomery's

407
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 11: excellent short yardage, he could handle pass protection, he has

408
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 11: an injury history. He'll team up with Woody Marks. That'll

409
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 11: look really good. This is something they had to do.

410
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 8: They knew that. Now.

411
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 11: From Detroit standpoint, it's not like they really wanted to

412
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 11: trade him. Montgomery had. My understanding was.

413
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 8: That he had.

414
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 11: It wasn't that he requested to trade his He just

415
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 11: wants a bigger role. He let them know that He's representatives,

416
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 11: I believe were involved in that, and they knew kind

417
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 11: of going forward that they have that they were going

418
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 11: to have an issue potentially, and they had to look

419
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 11: at his situation with his contract and decide that, you

420
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 11: know what he was on the Faunal Yevers deal, now

421
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 11: is the time to trade him.

422
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 8: You know, he's making about nine million in total cash.

423
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 11: She had a roster bonus due on March seventeenth, so

424
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 11: they moved him and they needed significant help in the

425
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 11: middle of their offensive line. Drew Scruggs, who they got

426
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 11: could play center, re guard. Now, he was overdrafted to

427
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 11: be clear, coming out of Penn State. He he was

428
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 11: a guy that was thought to be a third or

429
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 11: fourth round pick. He was drafting the second It just

430
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 11: never really worked. And he'll go in there and compete

431
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 11: for playing time. They just within the last five minutes

432
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 11: Detroit cut Graham Glasgow, who had started summit center for them,

433
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 11: also played some guard. And you know, the another thing is, guys,

434
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 11: they may not keep Taylor Decker, who's had problems with

435
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 11: his shoulders.

436
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 2: There.

437
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 11: He's owed a lot of money. He's owed just over

438
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 11: eighteen million, and they want him to make a decision

439
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 11: very very soon. He's got a roster bonus do of

440
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 11: one point five million on March seventeenth, So they've got

441
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 11: a lot going on now.

442
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 8: The line's do with their offensive.

443
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 5: Line, Adam, it's so nice to chat with you.

444
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

445
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 4: With this move, though, do you think the Lions realistically

446
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 4: I think the conversation of their window closing in with

447
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 4: these moves. Is it because they think their window is

448
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 4: open or is this more for the future.

449
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,640
Speaker 11: No, just you know, they're actually a very young team

450
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 11: when you really look at it. The guys who are

451
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 11: remaining on their offensive line other than Deck are very young.

452
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 11: They're very young at wide. Receiver Gibbs is obviously very young.

453
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 11: The Porter's young is coming off a major injury. Defensively,

454
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 11: they're mostly young. No, their windows quarterbacks playing to the forties. No,

455
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 11: they're actually a pretty young team overall. Three or four

456
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 11: guys who are older. But that's about it. And what

457
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,159
Speaker 11: they have is a lot of free agents. And the

458
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 11: other problem is for that Lion's team, they really need

459
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,120
Speaker 11: to do a better job of looking into why they

460
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 11: have so many problems with injury in their secondary The

461
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 11: no injury. No secondary has been more injured in the

462
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 11: last two seasons in the line.

463
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 2: And Caplin joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. The

464
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 2: Chiefs are cutting Juwan Taylor in a move that's reported today.

465
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 2: Just speaking about offensive line wise, when we're talking, I

466
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: mean Detroit's got a retool theirs. They were one of

467
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 2: the best in the NFL. We know that Kansas City

468
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 2: has tried to stay in front of the game at

469
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 2: times of protecting Patrick Mahomes. What does this mean for

470
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 2: the Chiefs?

471
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 11: All right, So this move I put this out three

472
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 11: months ago, the Rezero chance. He'd played in twenty twenty

473
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 11: six for the Chiefs. What happened was, yeah, I want

474
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 11: to cut him last year, but his cash last year

475
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 11: was fully guaranteed at the twenty million, so they were

476
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 11: stuck with him. He was once a really good right

477
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 11: tackle for the Jaguars. He played left and right tackle

478
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 11: for them, and then he just kind of fell off

479
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 11: and he never played well for the Chiefs. And yeah,

480
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 11: they missed on that one. So they're going to cut him.

481
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 11: That was an absolute lock. And what they'll do is

482
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,679
Speaker 11: they moved Jalen Moore in who he was sort of

483
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 11: a right tackle in waiting. Remember they signed him to

484
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 11: a two year deal worth thirty million, so he'll take

485
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 11: over at right tackle that Simmons are left.

486
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 8: They're very young, like they're going to be good in

487
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 8: the offensive line.

488
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 11: But the Chiefs, guys, they're in a transitional phase. They're

489
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 11: just not very talented on defense. Receiperwise, it hasn't worked out,

490
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 11: and running back wise, I don't have any starter, and

491
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 11: my homes is coming off a major injury where there's

492
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 11: some serious question too whether he'll be available Week one. So, guys,

493
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 11: this is a transitional team. It's hard to believe we're

494
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 11: saying this, but it is what it is.

495
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 5: Adam. Let's shift over to the Cowboys.

496
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 4: Dan and I were just discussing how once again Jerry

497
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 4: Jones says he's gonna spend a lot.

498
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 2: Of money, break the bank.

499
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's we've heard him say this before.

500
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 8: Ridiculous.

501
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 5: But I said to Dan, I was like.

502
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 4: I think he's maybe speaking specifically out there to Max

503
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 4: Crosby that hey, I'm willing to spend the money. What

504
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 4: is the latest with Max Crosby and the Raiders, And

505
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 4: do you do you think maybe there's a connection here

506
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 4: with the Cowboys.

507
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 11: Well, there's a connection with any team that we want

508
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 11: to give up too first round picks.

509
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:52,719
Speaker 8: That's my understanding coming out of the combine.

510
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 11: That's kind of they they kind of know like, first

511
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 11: of all, there's no edge that they could get in

512
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 11: the first round. Who's going to duplicate Crosby could be

513
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 11: And if they're going to be trading to a really

514
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,120
Speaker 11: good team, which is going to be picking the late twenties,

515
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,399
Speaker 11: you need moaymore in a first round pick. And that's

516
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:12,120
Speaker 11: my understanding is what they're thinking is they they are

517
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 11: probably the least talent team in the National FOOTBA League.

518
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 11: The Jets are right up there, and I actually say

519
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 11: the Raiders have less talent and they're in a total rebuild. Now,

520
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 11: I know for a fact that Crosby's told people with

521
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 11: the Raiders over the years he did not want to

522
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 11: be part of a rebuild. Well, I know he has

523
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 11: not asked for a trade, to be clear. I know

524
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 11: that for a fact. But man, they're just a total

525
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 11: mess right now.

526
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 2: What do you think ends up? Adam Kaplan r nfl

527
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 2: In's that are joining us here on Fox Sports Radio.

528
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 2: She's Monzi Blaio, So I'm Dan byer In for Stutgats

529
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 2: and Company Live. What do you think the outcome ends

530
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 2: up being with the Cowboys and Pickings non exclusive tag,

531
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 2: so there could be a team out there that could

532
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 2: be interested. Do you think he plays under the tag?

533
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 2: Do you think they strike a long term deal? How

534
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 2: do you think it ultimately works out with Pickinsy?

535
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 11: This surprise has been they've indicated that they'd like to

536
00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 11: sign him to an extension. Now the problem is it's

537
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 11: with this history of immaturity, you're gonna want to get

538
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 11: out of that contract after a couple of years if

539
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 11: he's just not doing what he's supposed to be doing.

540
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 11: Give a Steelers and Steelers, as one Steeler show said

541
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 11: to me, we cannot take them to the airport soon enough.

542
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 11: They just they had enough of him. He's a very

543
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 11: mercurial will be the adjective really smart from a football standpoint,

544
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 11: like gets it, understands it, processes well. But from a

545
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 11: maturity standpoint, he's hard to reach. He's hard to coach. Now,

546
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 11: there were two or three games where Dan on that

547
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 11: point he just didn't show up and everything else he

548
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 11: was phenomenal, dominant, and that's the thing that they struggle

549
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 11: with a little bit because of what they give up

550
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 11: to get him. They really don't want to trade him.

551
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,199
Speaker 11: This may take a little bit of time here, This

552
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 11: may take a little time. I never do odds because

553
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 11: things could change. But the chances are he'll be a

554
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 11: cowboy this season. Now, if someone says we'll give you

555
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,719
Speaker 11: a high first round pick and more, that's a different story,

556
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 11: and I will get more into this in future weeks.

557
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 8: This is not a very good receiver draft.

558
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 11: Doesn't mean we're gonna have There're gonna be some guys

559
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 11: who turn out to be good players, but overall, the

560
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 11: earlier word I've gotten, it's not real good at that

561
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 11: position for the draft.

562
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 5: Well, this leads to my next question about the Chargers.

563
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 5: Adam the twenty second overall pick.

564
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 4: With the Chargers, do you draft to protect Justin Herbert

565
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 4: or do you help him offensively because there's no weapons.

566
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 2: By the way, I do want to say this is

567
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 2: Mancy being a respected I.

568
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 8: Could tell this is homer question at all.

569
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 2: Not No, they don't have season tickets to the Chargers,

570
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 2: not at all, not at all. This is a right down

571
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 2: the middle journalistic question about the Chargers.

572
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,399
Speaker 11: Sorry, god, well they've got here. They are a couple

573
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 11: of things they've got. They got a lot of problems

574
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 11: with their offensive line. They get two guys come up

575
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 11: with major injury. Zion Johnson, the left guard is up.

576
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 11: They don't have a center. Their center retired, so Boseman,

577
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 11: Bradley Bothman retired. They have need They need corners. They

578
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 11: need probably two corners. Max contracts up. They need an

579
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 11: edge rusher, Topriza backup there. They have a lot of

580
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 11: work to do in that roster, like it's I mean, yeah, dude.

581
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 11: They Quentin Johnston, I don't want to say any breakouts.

582
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 11: Is he finally shot and improved. Mcconkey's a stud. They

583
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 11: want to see more of Trey Howers as the second

584
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 11: round pick last season. That they need depth there more competition,

585
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 11: and they're gonna cut mackay Beck than I believe. So

586
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 11: the interior their OFFENSEI flying could be completely different. So

587
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 11: they have a lot of work to do with that roster.

588
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:28,719
Speaker 5: I know I don't like it.

589
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 2: We shall see. The NFL Draft will be here before

590

00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 2: left and it was Jordan Jordan Hudson. So when I

618
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 2: had Jordan Hudson as my fifth most popular, I think

619
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 2: at third most popular, tar heel didn't fit in with

620
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 2: the other rankings that we've had. But we're going to

621
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 2: do blind rankings to end today's show. Jason Stewart the

622
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 2: topic today, Well.

623
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 7: First of all, I need we need to put it

624
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 7: the precursor that we're trying to do this. We're trying

625
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 7: to emulate this game that's taken off. I'm not We're

626
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 7: not going to pretend that we're going to do it

627
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 7: as well as Stu Gotson Company. And I think this

628
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 7: is a Mikey a idea. I want to give him credit.

629
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 7: Maybe it's Taylor. I'll give a little bit of room there.

630
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 7: But so blind rankings goes like this, We're going to

631
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 7: go around the room, right, Isaac and Sammarin, Moncey and Dan.

632
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 7: I'm going to give you five vikings quarterbacks that you

633
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 7: need to rank all time now Vikings quarterbacks while they

634
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 7: were a member of the Vikings. That's the key here, Okay,

635
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 7: I'm going to.

636
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 8: Give you a name.

637
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 7: You tell me where they would rank one through five

638
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 7: on your list of Vikings quarterbacks.

639
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 2: And to keep it topical. Sorry to cut you off, Mazzi.

640
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 2: It's also because we don't know who the Vikings quarterback

641
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 2: is going to be, because it may not be JJ

642
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 2: McCarthy coming up in the fall.

643
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 7: They're in the market. They've made it known to all

644
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 7: the insiders. They're in the market for a quarterback. So

645
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 7: let's do the top five Vikings of all time. Dan

646
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 7: Bayer will start with you. Where would you put Brett

647
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 7: Farv on your top five list of Vikings quarterbacks?

648
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 2: He's out there. To be honest with you, he wouldn't

649
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: be number one. And I don't know if you're going

650
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 2: to give the number one, but I have to leave

651
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 2: number one open when you think about where they could

652
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 2: have gone. It was a short period of time. I'm

653
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 2: gonna put Farv and I know there was the interception

654
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 2: that cost them the trip to the super Bowl, but

655
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 2: still this was prime Vikings. I'm toggling between two and

656
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 2: three I'm going to put Farv at two.

657
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 7: Interesting, okay, Farv at two? Monsey, where do you put

658
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 7: Farv top five Vikings quarterbacks?

659
00:30:58,440 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 2: It was a short stint, it was.

660
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 5: It was pardon hard of me. Wants to say three.

661
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 7: That's a very safe pick. Yeah, it gives you a

662
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 7: lot of will go room on either side. Correct you

663
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 7: do that?

664
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 5: Yes?

665
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 7: All right, Isaac? Okay, am I allowed to leave him

666
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 7: off the list entirely?

667
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 2: Not?

668
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 7: Okay?

669
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 8: Then five?

670
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 7: Five?

671
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 2: Wow, geez, that's.

672
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 7: Making a statement, Isaac. You gotta rank them.

673
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 10: Well, it depends on who the other quarterbacks are, but I.

674
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 7: Am I don't know. Yeah, that's the game, Isaac, I'm

675
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 7: taking the gamble. Wow, Sam, And I put him in

676
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 7: that safe spot at number three. That is safe. I

677
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 7: think that's that's that's a smart spot. Okay, okay. Number

678
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 7: the second quarterback I'm gonna mention here is Randall Cunningham.

679
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 7: Randall Cunningham, Dan Barr.

680
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 2: Yes, gosh, that leading that offense. Uh, this is one

681
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: of the greatest seasons we had ever seen in NFL history.

682
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 3: M VP, was it?

683
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 7: I think so?

684
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 2: Maybe ninety eight? Double chuck bet I'm gonna put random

685
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 2: Cunningham at number three, number three Monsey.

686
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 12: Oh before your time, right a little bit, But I

687
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 12: feel like everybody loved him and he was so dynamic,

688
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,239
Speaker 12: that more dynamic than Brett far was.

689
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 5: Some of it have two.

690
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 7: Ooh, that's a statement right there, Isaac.

691
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 10: I'm putting him at two as well, just because of

692
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 10: a lack of tenure, but absolutely two.

693
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 7: And Iowa say, I am putting him at number two. Wow.

694
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 7: So three number two's and Dan at number three. This

695
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 7: is when it starts to getting insering guys. Interesting Kirk Cousins.

696
00:32:54,160 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins number four, Yeah, without hesitation, number four, number four,

697
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 2: says buyer. I've got one in five left the victories. Yeah,

698
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 2: government never went to an NFC championship game with Minnesota.

699
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 7: He won one playoff game, I believe.

700
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 5: I guess based on my list, he's got to be four.

701
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 7: Another four Cousins is four on Monsei and Dan's list

702
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 7: on my list too. Four Okay, Sam making an even

703
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 7: uh he wow, Cousins at four. A lot of you

704
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 7: guys are leaving the one in the five.

705
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 2: Well, yes, I I think you have to leave one

706
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 2: for one quarterback. And I don't know who's five, but

707
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 2: I am safe in saying that there's not a lot

708
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 2: of great quarterbacks that have gone through Minnesota. So when

709
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 2: you're talking about the success of the team, you got

710
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 2: a lot of good names here, all right.

711
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 7: Here we go, Sam Donald, damn Byer, Sam Donald.

712
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 2: I'd put him at five. I'd put him at five.

713
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 2: That seems really safe that one season there. Yeah, I

714
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 2: can't put him at one.

715
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 7: Monsey, I'm gonna put him at one.

716
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 5: No, I'm just kidding. He's fives five.

717
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:25,240
Speaker 10: Yeah, Isaac, I'm putting him at three because I'm holding

718
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 10: out hope that somebody that I'm thinking might be number one.

719
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 7: And Sam, yeah, just the one season, I put him

720
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 7: at five.

721
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 8: All right.

722
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 7: So as the game maker, this is this is the

723
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 7: conundrum because each of you have left number one available

724
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 7: and I feel like I've failed you guys as a

725
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,640
Speaker 7: game maker. Like I said, this was gonna be a

726
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 7: half assed version of a very popular game. We didn't

727
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 7: know how this would go. JJ McCarthy was the name

728
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 7: that I left.

729
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 5: The I'm stuck stop it.

730
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 7: Yeah, at least it wasn't Max Bros.

731
00:34:58,280 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 2: Done dirty.

732
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 10: I literally thought you were gonna put Fran Tarkin.

733
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 7: Of course you didn't.

734
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 10: Three Super Bowl appearances.

735
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 2: I also would have said, if you would have had

736
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 2: Dante Culpeper, I would have been fine with him, Dante

737
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 2: Culpeper at one. If it wasn't fran Tarkington.

738
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 5: Or warn Moon Warn Moon, I was waiting for a.

739
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 10: Wayne Wilson, Tommy Kramer.

740
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 7: Tommy Kramer.

741
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 5: It's another great one, but you put it nine.

742
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 7: So what do you guys think is the game maker?

743
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 7: Did I did I screw up?

744
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,799
Speaker 10: I thought I thought it was good controversy to come

745
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 10: out of these games, and you got it.

746
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 7: You played us like a fifth.

747
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 5: You did play us like a fiddle.

748
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,919
Speaker 7: I just one of you guys would have lost three.

749
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 2: No, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna let Jason off

750
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 2: the hook on it. I think the problem was is

751
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 2: that the two worst quarterbacks were last. Like I did

752
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,959
Speaker 2: a really good one at four to make us want

753
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:47,719
Speaker 2: to put it at number one. Like I didn't even

754
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 2: hesitate that Darnald was going to be my five. So

755
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 2: if you would have said Culpeper, I would have been like, Okay,

756
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 2: I'm gonna put him at one because I'm just not

757
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 2: sure yet. It'll take that note. Could be I'll take

758
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: that note.

759
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 7: I totally take that.

760
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, He's right because at the end the two

761
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:07,320
Speaker 4: bad ones, it was kind of like, yeah, I'm not

762
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 4: going to put Sam Donald won good point, you know

763
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 4: what I mean?

764
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 7: Maybe you should have done warm Moon instead of Sam Donald.

765
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 7: Looking back, warm Moon could spin.

766
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 5: It, but I didn't. I didn't hate it. I didn't

767
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 5: hate this time.

768
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 7: Christian Ponder.

769
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Tavares Jackson, Rip Tavaris Jackson. I will say that

770
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 2: the MVP award that Randall Cunningham won was the ne

771
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 2: EA MVP. I didn't think that he won the Associated

772
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 2: Press UH MVP that year, but he some organization named
