West in his his proud fight against 25 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: the big sea, and we're good, good point of progress 26 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: on that. Right? Did you kick little ceas has Little 27 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: Ce's gone baby?

I'm 29 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: just gonna say, yeah, if you need someone to look 30 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: up to, I'm right here. You are an example of 31 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: fortitude and bravery. Really yeah, an inspiration, but really you are. 32 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: Now you're done with radiation and chemo. West, you rang 33 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: the bell I did? It was kind of a weird thing. 34 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: Did you know that existed? I I didn't hear about 35 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: this until about a month ago, but I was looking 36 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: forward to it. Yeah, people are not aware it didn't. 37 00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if you posted that publicly, West, but 38 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: I guess on the on my Instagram. Okay, on the 39 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: floor where this stuff goes down, there's a bell that 40 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: you ring when you finish the rounds of chemo and 41 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: radiation and you're done with that. That's awesome, done with that. 42 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: And my next step is to visit with the surgeon. 43 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 1: He'll put me through some tests, find out how much 44 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: is still left in my body and schedule surgery for 45 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: I was looking now like sometime in mid to late August, 46 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: all right. I liked when you rang the bell and 47 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: like a fleet of nurses came out and congratulated you 48 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: and clapped for you. It's funny when I because I 49 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: was on vacation, when I finally kicked Little C and 50 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: no bells, no nurses, and it was like, okay, that's fine. 51 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: It was a proud you did it in silence perhaps, 52 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: but you you, you, you were victorious. No no one 53 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: be the case of the sniffles caused by a hangover 54 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: better than you. Okay, that's fair, that's fair. That's that's 55 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: the treacherous part about Little C. You are left to do. 56 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: You're fighting really in a dark corner with nobody watching, yeah, support, 57 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: and you're mocked on top of it. It's not right, 58 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: it's not big. See if you if you really take 59 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: a step back, is a little bit of a Glory 60 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: b situation, Glory boy's situation. Little see, you're alone, you 61 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: grow from it. Ain't no bell to ring. Put it 62 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: that way. Okay, this is ridiculous, West, We're very happy 63 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: that you are moving along in a positive direction. Uh, 64 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: and that you're with us today. We're all together for 65 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: a show that, by the way, sponsored or I should 66 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: say presented by New Era.

I guess 70 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: somebody on Twitter said that we didn't make it clear 71 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: where to find it, which sounds very much like us. Yeah, 72 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: our Ultimate Goults remain forever a niche podcast with a 73 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: cult following.

Well, I went through a Google translator, 110 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: so it's probably um alright.

Um, a fourteen yards, fourteen year starter for 139 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: the Jets. That's a massive star. That h takes me 140 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: out of permanent despair. But there's a lot of a 141 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: lot of things that have to happen for the to 142 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: go that way. And first of all, right off the 143 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: top way. I don't think. I don't know if you 144 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: guys talked about it when I was away last week, 145 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: but Daniel Jeremiah, oh you got moved the sticks maybe, um, 146 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: you know he had talked to some of them, says 147 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: it could be two years before Donald comes out, You're 148 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: not going to be ignored in and uh. Donald actually 149 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: disputed that report on ESPN. He was on the six, 150 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: very hip, very contemporary version of sports Sports Center. I 151 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: don't know if you watched the six. What channel is 152 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: it on? Oh yeah, sports Center? Bro?

Anyway? 158 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: So Donald, he didn't. He disputed the report from Jeremiah, 159 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: which you know, I'm not even gonna touch. But he said, um, 160 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: um that that's not the case. The what the report was, 161 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: that wouldn't be surprised if Donald played two more seasons 162 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: at USC. Donald said that's not the case. Uh. And 163 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: he isn't certain of anything yet uh and questioned who 164 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: those supposed sources are and I'll stay out of it 165 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: again in But then he was asked what his plans are, um, 166 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: and he went with the athlete cliche thing when one 167 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 1: day at a time, when game at a time, anything anyway, 168 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: And then he was asked about he does he believe 169 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: that the Jets or any team should attempt to purposely 170 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: lose games in order to better their chances of drafting him. 171 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: Uh the hashtag scamp for Sam and he replied, I 172 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: don't think any teams should tank their season because of me. 173 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: I disagree. It's essentially what Peyton Manning did before he 174 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: was drafted. Remember he can went back to school. Oh, 175 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: I remember Mark, he went one in fifteen the previously 176 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 1: the Jets who lost out. Yeah, and if it happened again, yeah, 177 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: might be following some paperwork in the Chris Westling School 178 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: of Sports fandom. I mean he didn't really he didn't 179 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: really dispute this either. He just said he's taken it 180 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: year by year, which is to to Daniels reporting. And 181 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: point was that don't consider it just d J. Daniel. 182 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: You're like the first person. That's what they do on TV. 183 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: They call him Daniel. And because you're in TV, are 184 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: you wait a second, are you NFL Networks? Greg rusinful? 185 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: Is he something friend? Yeah? And then he reported that 186 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: you know, wouldn't be a surprise based on what he 187 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: knows if he stays for two years, and uh, Darnald 188 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: didn't dispute that. He said he's taking it year by year. 189 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: It has been kind of assumed for no reason at all, that, 190 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: of course, this guy's A is going to be the 191 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 1: number one overall pick and then B will actually want 192 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: to come out when you really have no idea. He's 193 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: a young kid, he's a red shirt sophomore who knows 194 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: what he's something is going to go wrong, or just 195 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: he wants to stay in school. Why not, Well, that's 196 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: something going wrong for the Jets. The chances that it 197 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 1: actually works out for the Jets are negative and negative digits. 198 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: I know that, I absolutely, I'm aware that it's nothing 199 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: ever works out, especially something that with this many things 200 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: and this many levers need to be thrown and the 201 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: wheels have to turn in all the certain directions. It's 202 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: gonna somehow the cults will end up with him and 203 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: they and they'll put him on like a seven year 204 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: starting plan or something. I understand that, but I can't 205 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 1: plan your you can't for better or worse. You can't 206 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: pre plan your season in May and June the way 207 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: that this has been outlined, like the Jets automatically, they're 208 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: gonna watch them go be surprisingly annoyingly. Even that's how 209 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: they lost out on Marcus Mariota. They do that a 210 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: lot as well. Anyway, we'll see and by the way, 211 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 1: the whole thing two years, maybe we'll be Jets will 212 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: still be in good position. Probably that his west. So 213 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,719 Speaker 1: moving on, Hey, Bruce Arians, good to hear um uh, 214 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: speaking of the Big Sea. He had a spot, a 215 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: cancerous spot of sometime on of some kind of his 216 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: kidney uh in February, and they went in there and 217 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: they removed that. Good to hear that, Bruce. And it actually, 218 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: you know, we talked about in this pot a lot 219 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: that he just didn't seem like himself, and it turns 220 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: out that he uh in addition to having chest pain 221 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: and we had that incident. He was diagnosed with this 222 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: near the end of the season and coached through it and 223 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: and obviously wasn't himself. Hopefully we'll get the old Bruce 224 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: Arians this year. Well, I wonder what he'd have to 225 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: say about what you went through with the hangover that 226 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: delved into a slight cold But um, where you're right. 227 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: I think we could tell that the energy and the 228 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: whole team's energy is a reflection of Arians the previous 229 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: season that it kind of just didn't seem the same 230 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 1: last year. Um slight cold feels like a bit of 231 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: an understatement, but anyway, Arians was on Good Morning Football 232 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: on Wednesday and he shared a story about drinking paint 233 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: as a kid. I'm I'm happy Bruce Arians alive after 234 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: hearing this story. Uh take it away, g m FB. 235 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: I was allergic to milk as a child, and my 236 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: older brother would always get a big glass and drink 237 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: it in front of me all the time. And Dad 238 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: was painting the kitchen one day, and uh, I saw 239 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: that big, creamy white bucket and just grabbed it and 240 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: started drinking it, and person, if I'm gonna milkin? I 241 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: actually uh got out of a terrible job um in 242 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: my my the year I came back from a freshman 243 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: year of high school. This one was like typical college 244 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: person house painting jobs you get, and I was awful. 245 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: And the first uh, within the first week, I was 246 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: paired up with this gigantic like football b myth guy 247 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: and we put a ladder through an old woman's like 248 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: gigantic window that chattered all over her living room and 249 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: then we poured a white can of paint on this 250 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: woman's UH roof, which like for years later she'll still 251 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: showed a terrible stain. And so I had to get 252 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: out of this job. And I went back in the 253 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: woods and sampled oil paints because they had been um 254 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: giving me allergies. And I was like, if I if 255 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: I have a big scoop of oil paint, I will 256 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: definitely get sick and have a legit excuse to not 257 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: pain again all year. And it went perfectly. Wow, got 258 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: out of the jay, very very cunning. Mark. You've always 259 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: been a very widely man or boy in that case. Uh, 260 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: you know, not to bring it back to you know, 261 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: the world of football or anything. But I don't do that. 262 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: I I noticed some real implications in what Bruce wrote 263 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: in his book. I mean, the quote that he wrote was, 264 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: now I feel great, my energy has returned. I told him, 265 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: I'm told him cancer free again. I'm ready for at 266 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: least one more season of NFL football, maybe more. And 267 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: that's something that he put in his book that certainly 268 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: sounds like a guy who's thinking about the end. This 269 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: is UH coach who in just the last has this 270 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: is his third cancer scare of some sort, just in 271 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: the last eight months, he had a problem with his 272 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: digestive track. He had chest pains, and he also writes 273 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: that he now realized nothing is guaranteed in life, that 274 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: you need to enjoy it. You need to celebrate your 275 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: life to the fullest. And he's saying, you know, maybe 276 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: I'll coach more than one year. It that does sound 277 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: like a guy who's at least thinking about maybe maybe 278 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: my coaching career is kind of winding out. This could 279 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: be the swan song for Bruce Arians, Carson Palmer, Larry 280 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald all in the same season. Which you know, when 281 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: I think about that, we're casting a pretty wide net 282 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: for team of a t NFL. And when I hear 283 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: this quote, I want to be a beacon of hope 284 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: for other struggling with cancer. And my fight is their fight. 285 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: I'm not coaching for myself in two thousand seventeen. I'm 286 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: coaching for everyone who's dealing with cancer. This is my 287 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: charge that that's almost like he's aiming directly. I was 288 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: almost a message to us, Hey, come back to the cards. 289 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: It's a wide open I feel good about the Team 290 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: of a t L this year, um because I feel 291 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: like there's some really good teams to choose from, and 292 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: it seems like we're we're on the same page with 293 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: several of them. Today we are today where it's gonna 294 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: get very thorny, I predict. I think it might be 295 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: one of those. I think it might be the first 296 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: season though, that we choose to pick the team before 297 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: the season starts, which I always thought that that's how 298 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: we should do it. That's because there's some good strong, 299 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: Well what happened to our pick a team out of 300 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: the hat scenario and ride or die with you know, 301 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: it's a little bit different, a little bit cowardly like 302 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: most offseason shows. I forgot that happened. That's a good point. Hey, 303 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: let's move on to the throne of ease. This is 304 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: according to a report from the a P. That's the 305 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: Associated Press and Exclusive Club in the Tony Town. Tawny Town, 306 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: Tony It's very nice town, fluid town where Tom Brady 307 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: and Gazelle Bunch and live has finally admitted the celebrity couple. 308 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: The Blossom Gulpen reported the country Club, that's what's actually called, 309 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: which is so Tom Brady that the country club he 310 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: would be in.

I didn't know high 330 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: profile was a bad thing for these clubs. I assumed 331 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: that they would Grandfather Tom Brady and his supermodel wife 332 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: in just for the publicity. But I guess you don't 333 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: want publicity. This is where you want to be as 334 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: exclusive as possible. Brookline is where JFK and his family 335 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: grew up. And I'm sure the Kennedy's probably belonging to 336 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: this this club if it's been open that long too. Well, 337 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: that all these people in the country club are obnoxious 338 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: for the most part, I mean the fact that they're 339 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: just these country clubs in general are obnoxious. They're on 340 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: my radar a little bit more because Malcolm Gladwell, he's 341 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 1: got this is your Boy. I was just about to 342 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: bring it up and that his first episode this season 343 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: was about all of the ways that the country club 344 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: owners you know in Los Angeles, basically steal taxpayer money 345 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: through uh you know politics, Bob Hope, and take take 346 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 1: up all of take up all this space when there's 347 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: no pockets, like enough with your country clubs, let's take 348 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: them that that the idea was basically, let's take down 349 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: the country clubs. Let's he was specifically talking about golf course, 350 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 1: but part of country clubs. I can't imagine a room 351 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: full of people I'd i'd less want to hang out 352 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: with than like a country club full of like self 353 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: satisfied egomaniacs. It doesn't seem like you're crowd. I worked 354 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: at a couple of country clubs, and I'm sure you're 355 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 1: doing backroom in the back room at clean clubs. What 356 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: was JFK Jr? Like? All right? You you worked in 357 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: the in the back room. I'm sorry. I didn't mean 358 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: to interrupt you. No, No, that's that's all you were. 359 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: You used to be. You were a caddy all through 360 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: your team. I mean I stopped talking because when you 361 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: said what was he like? I wanted to say dead, 362 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 1: but then I thought, that's he has passed away. Tragic 363 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 1: plane crash in Um. Now you know where you crashed, 364 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: don't you? The vineyard? MM? I don't. All right. Finally 365 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: in the news, uh Megatron, you remember him, don't you? Oh? Yeah, 366 00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: great player? As I pull up the story, UM, he 367 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: retired at a young age. I believe he was in 368 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: his early thirties. UM. One of the great wide season 369 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 1: receivers of course of his generation. I believe anyway that 370 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: he's a a Hall of Famer, no doubt about it. UM. 371 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 1: But the fact that he retired early that's that could 372 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: affect his status. He was thirty years old when he 373 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: walked away, and he spoke out UM about why he 374 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: decided not to come back to the Lions for another season. 375 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: And this was he told UM the Italian media this, 376 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: why does the Italian media care about? Yeah? Anyway, good 377 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: scoopage uh from the Italian media. Anyway. He said this 378 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: in the Detroit News. UM picked it up. I was 379 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: stuck in my contract with Detroit and they told me 380 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: they would not release my contract, so I would have 381 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 1: to come back to them. I didn't see the chance 382 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: for them to win a Super Bowl at the time, 383 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: and for the work I was putting in, it wasn't 384 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: worth my time to keep on beating my head against 385 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: the wall and not going anywhere. It's the definition of insanity. 386 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: He wanted to win it, but he just didn't see 387 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 1: that opportunity. Obviously, the reference to playing with the Lions, 388 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 1: who have never won a Super Bowl. And this feels 389 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: like the perfect time to bring back Um. You know, 390 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: he is a man that is plugged into Lions culture. 391 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: He is our he's our heartland correspondent in a lot 392 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 1: of ways, and he's also got a sick body, Kevin Patrick, 393 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 1: coming at you, baby, what's going on? Fellas A long time, 394 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: long time, too long, miss you buddy. What's going on Patrick? 395 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: Before we get into this lion's business, what's going on? 396 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: How's your body? Oh? You know, still working on it, 397 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: Still working on it. Got a lot of got a 398 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: lots to do every day at different different venture every day. Dan, 399 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,239 Speaker 1: We've been talking about this long enough that I know, 400 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: based on the calendar, exactly where you are right now. 401 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: You're about cutting weight because of the beach situation. Not 402 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: about bulk or mass. It's more about cutting up, getting 403 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: that X pack slash eight pack of that that that 404 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: V like if you've got a really hot bot. I 405 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: don't know anything about this. You can get the the 406 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: V that points down towards your genital region. I can't, 407 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: but you others others can. How's that going? How's your 408 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: vicious V? My vicious V is on the rise. COACHESS 409 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: has got me working hard, So yeah, Patrick and I 410 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 1: discussed this, Daely. This guy is a grinder. He's a 411 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: hard worker. Is he is? He? Would you if you 412 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: had to make an all star team of or like 413 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: a first team All probe beach body is Patrick first 414 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: team all Absolutely, he's been that. He's been that, you know, 415 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: the first team All Pro body, individual or the West. 416 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: You you might have different words than I would on that. 417 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: I think Patrick probably outweighs me at this point. Finally, Yeah, 418 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 1: but that's, you know, damning with faint praise. I have 419 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: no room to talk about Patrick's body anymore. What are 420 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 1: you gonna Are you gonna pile on on that? Patrick? 421 00:22:58,359 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: But that was a little bit of that was a 422 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 1: sneak shot that he was basically saying it took cancer 423 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: for you to pass him Patrick. I'm gonna let that 424 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 1: one fl alright, Kevin Patrick. So there you go. You 425 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: know the story. Hell, you wrote the damn thing on 426 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: NFL dot com, um around the NFL page as a 427 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: Lions fan, a long suffering Lions fan, and Calvin Johnson 428 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 1: was really the face of the franchise in a lot 429 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: of ways, the biggest face of the franchise since Barry Sanders. 430 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,239 Speaker 1: You could argue, Um, did it sting you at all? 431 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: Were you annoyed at all that this this was the 432 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: reasoning behind Megatron walking away? Well, when I first read 433 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: the read his quotes, my kind of my my first 434 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 1: unshial thought was like, like, of course, it was more 435 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: than just the injuries. The guy was still playing at 436 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: a peak level even though he was banged up, and 437 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: he cited that, you know, his hand was heard and 438 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: he had you know, concussion issues in the past. But 439 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: I mean, there's always there's there was always something with 440 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: the Lions where the losing will will grind you just 441 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: as much as the injuries. If they were a winning 442 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: team consistently over the course of his career, it would 443 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: be different. If they were close to a Super Bowl, 444 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: which he says he didn't see it, then it would 445 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: be different. Maybe he would have hung on a year 446 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: or two more. So, I think anytime the player retires 447 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: before obvious injuries are obvious, declient happens, there's always more 448 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 1: than just oh my hand was hurting and I've had 449 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 1: surgeries and I want to hang it up. There's always 450 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: more to the story than that. So this is just 451 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: him at this point, just coming clean with what I 452 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: think most of us knew and being honest about the situation. 453 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: It took him to go to Italy to be honest 454 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: about it, but I think this is finally you're hearing 455 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: it from his his his mouth what I think most 456 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: Lions fans believed to be true from the day he 457 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: said he was leaping. I thought the criticism of him 458 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 1: that came with this story was unfair. He could have 459 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: blasted the Lions on his way out. He waited sixteen months. 460 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: All he did was answer a question, and what he 461 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: said wasn't even that bad. It was understandable, totally understand. 462 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: It's totally understand the ball. It's also worth noting he 463 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: said a year ago at this time that he had 464 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: decided he was going to retire before the two thousand 465 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 1: sixteen season even started two thousand fifteen season even started, 466 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: which sort of doesn't add up with with this story. 467 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: So I don't know who this is. Also a guy 468 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: that liked did it alone for the Lions on offense 469 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: for so long while playing through a host of injuries. 470 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: But I would say, I mean, I think it's uh 471 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: Robut Greg's point that it doesn't add up, I think 472 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: years of losing and years of being mediocre do add up. 473 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: I think it's probably something that ground grinded on him 474 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: for years and years and years, and then then you 475 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 1: see and Dominican walk out the door. Yeah, yeah, you 476 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 1: see your best defensive players. They lost that in the 477 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: terrible way to the Cowboys, and he was probably like, 478 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: lost ore, we basically lost our defense. We're not gonna 479 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: We're not getting any better on offense. I mean, I'll 480 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: give it one more year and then unless something dramatic, 481 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: dramatic happens, I'm gone. I think think that actually this 482 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: saying that that he didn't see the way to the 483 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: Super Bowl makes more sense in the storyline if he 484 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: decided before after they lost that playoff game to the 485 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 1: Cowboys that he just didn't see even if they had 486 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: won that game, that they were going to go much further. 487 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: It's it's I mean, he's only thirty one years old 488 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: right now. I mean he is the same age as 489 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: a lot of the not too far off from some 490 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 1: of the top wide receivers. In leaks, I'm sure, I'm 491 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: sure he'll he'll tell some like Sicilian reporter that he's 492 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: signing with the Patriots a couple of weeks. Well, I 493 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: think part of it has to do with why he's 494 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: he's comfortable talking about this now in a very blunt manner. 495 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: Is there was the report that he the Lions made 496 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: him pay back millions of dollars and he wasn't too 497 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: happy about that, and it kind of peeved them off. 498 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: And now he doesn't have anything to hold back. He's like, well, 499 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you the real reason now, because if 500 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: they're going to make me do this, then I have 501 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: nothing to hold against you. And maybe a lot of 502 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: Lions fans are upset about it. I'm not upset with 503 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 1: what he said or how he said it. Personally, I 504 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 1: can understand it. Um, I can stand white player will 505 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: get frustrated with that, but I think that has to 506 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 1: do with it. He he doesn't worry about his reputation 507 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: among the Lions anymore. I think it begs one interesting question. 508 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: If you don't pull for the players and you don't 509 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: pull for the teams, if you just pull for the 510 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 1: sport and what's good for the sport. You kind of 511 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: like the franchise tag because it prevents super teams, it 512 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: prevents teams that aren't high profile from being drained. But 513 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: is it good for the sport If one of the 514 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: best players in the game feels like he has to 515 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: walk away because his options aren't there, because his only 516 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: option is to play for the Lions, they hold all 517 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: the cards, all right. The other point to make there 518 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: is he walked away and the Lions. I know they 519 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: were not a good team, really, but they were in 520 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: the playoffs. So if you get the dance, isn't that 521 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: all he ever really want to do is be a 522 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: guy playing in the playoffs. He walked away from a 523 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: team that's still had a great quarterback or good to 524 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,120 Speaker 1: great quarterback to the dance is not nearly the same 525 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: as being a super Bowl contender. The Lions got to 526 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: the dance last year and had no business in it. Well, 527 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: by the way, he wasn't volunteering his services. He was 528 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: paid extremely well to do what he did. I mean, 529 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: if winning team or not. If anything, it shows integrity. 530 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 1: I was really surprised that he got blowback for this. 531 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it shows some integrity that you're not fully 532 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: in it, that you're a guy who really just wants 533 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: to win at this point of his career. And if 534 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: you're not fully in it, then you don't play. And uh, 535 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: all right, finally, before we let you go, Patra, you 536 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: know you're engaged. How's that going. That's still happening, Yes, 537 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: that's still happening. Keep planning a lot of things nodding 538 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: my head along. Can you share the date with us, 539 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: the wedding date. I'll tell you it's next to May, 540 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: next May. So are we invited all of us including Sully? 541 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: Absolutely not. Hey, thanks for your thanks for having me in. 542 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: I applaud that. I applaud that honesty. Um uh. Now, 543 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people, you know, building towards beach season. 544 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: It's a nice markerd a goal to have your body tighten, right, 545 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: but a lot of people know if you've been married, 546 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: that wedding a is a really good way for motivation. 547 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: I would think, uh, to quote the great another Chicago 548 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: legend like Kevin Patra, Michael Jordan's Michael Jordan, the ceiling 549 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: is the roof with Patrick's body, with his wedding day 550 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: about nine months away. Now, I mean all bets are off. 551 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,239 Speaker 1: I think with that hot pot, Yeah, we're gonna we're 552 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: probably gonna do less bulking in the winter months, probably 553 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: more a little more two days. Actually, you know, we 554 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: talked about the J. J. Watt collection. Patrick would be good. 555 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: I'll just throw something out there, uh, if you really, 556 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: if you get real yoked, I'm talking you know, Rocky 557 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: in like the second Rambo type yoke, lose the lose 558 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: the suit sleeves entirely and just have the guns out 559 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: like that the altar. Now should I have should I 560 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: have somebody ripped them off so they're more like authentically gone, 561 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: Like that's that's such a good call. What you have 562 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: you come up to the down the aisle in the 563 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: customary suit and then do you have uh, your best man? 564 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: That would be Dan, Yeah, obviously me in this case. 565 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: You know, once you you turn around, this is even 566 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: before when the let the bride come out to then, 567 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: but you tell the priests or the pastor or the 568 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,719 Speaker 1: rabbi hold up, you step in front of your bride, 569 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: you hold your arms out, and then you have your 570 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: best man and your dad or your brother or something 571 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: rip off each sleeve and then you flex and you 572 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: have the church organists going to like, you know, the 573 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: champions at the time.

Don't get me wrong, Where's the micromodal 598 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: hat cloth used to make these lids. Need that, but 599 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: the read was a little bit cumbersome. Let's face it. 600 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: Last one. You're saying, yeah, a previous sponsor. It was 601 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: like a late period jettapataw movie of sponsors. I used 602 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:27,239 Speaker 1: to have a membership.

I have not watched 605 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: this program um probably ever. I don't think I've ever 606 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 1: actually watched SPEs and I think it's kind of, in practice, 607 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: a ridiculous show. The Awards, Like most courageous slam dunk 608 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: goes too, it's like, what what are you doing? Well? 609 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: It's tough too. I mean, like you're a if you're 610 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: a Patriots fan like me, it's like you're coming off 611 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: this high of the super Bowl Championship and then you 612 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: lose best Championship team and it's like it didn't even 613 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: matter you have. You have struggled, Craig, wait, is a struggle. 614 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: They gave it to the Warriors best Championship tea. I mean, 615 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 1: so much for the Patriots. Not a good season, not 616 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,239 Speaker 1: a good enough That's sorry. I didn't even know that. 617 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 1: It just it makes it so at least there's another 618 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: mountain to climb. Um anyway, Peyton Manning UH was the 619 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: host of the annual SPS how about that?

Uh. Let's Sully, 623 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: let's just go through him the first one about the 624 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams last year's l a Rams on the 625 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: subject of the critically acclaimed docuse series All or Nothing. 626 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: Spoiler it's nothing pretty good. He didn't write that, but 627 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: it's fine. Sully clipped out the applause and laughter. It's 628 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 1: a shot against Taton there Hennessee the guy. No, no, no, no, 629 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: how dare you cut out the candle after? Did you 630 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: like that? Wes? No, he's one of the most unfunny athletes. 631 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 1: I am with West on this, but Liken unfunnier. How 632 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: about stabbing the Rams in the back. Then they signed 633 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning last year soccer Sully thinks a guy from 634 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: Tennessee is funny. I also, I also kind of like 635 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: the fact that you think Peyton Manning wrote these. I mean, 636 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: he's delivery. He's terrible. Let's check out this delivery. But 637 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I believe in the Falcons. I believe 638 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: in Matt Ryan dan Quinn, and I don't know in 639 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: my heart the Falcons will be back, right, the Falcons 640 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:45,399 Speaker 1: will be back. That's build up, same things to build up. Greg, 641 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: You don't have the Falcons to hear that from me 642 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: now at the beginning of the show, because I know 643 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: they'll stop paying attention three quarters the way in. Oh no, 644 00:34:55,600 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 1: it's slightly tired. But and then they cut the poor 645 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: DeVonta Freeman literally dying inside with a smile. Tough. What 646 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 1: else have we got? Uh? Philip Jackson's knicks are the 647 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: most embarrassing thing to happen in New York sports, and 648 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 1: that includes the time Mark Sanchez ran full steam of 649 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: his teammates Anus and fumbled the football. You tired? I mean, 650 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: that's so. Now. Here's the problem is if he if 651 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: he didn't write this, and we assume he didn't, that 652 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: some jokes, some some joke author in l A wrote 653 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: this for him. That's where the embarrassing jokes. Some person 654 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: his job is to come up with these wise cracks 655 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: and the quips came up with that. The joke is 656 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: that Peyton Manning said the word anus. That's the joke. 657 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 1: And and not for nothing. You know, you're mocking poor 658 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez of the Jets. Was he there? No, he wasn't. 659 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: The Jets you know, went into Indianapolis and be Peyton 660 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: Manning in the playoffs. Once this guy that you you 661 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: you find it okay to rip in front of literally 662 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: hundreds of people watching at home. Let's listen one more. 663 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: I love the Serena Williams when the Australian Open while 664 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: carrying a child. That probably that was I mean, that's 665 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: even more impressive than two years ago when the Denver 666 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: Broncos defense won the Super Bowl while carrying me. I mean, 667 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: I mean you get come. Yeah it sal he cuts 668 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,280 Speaker 1: out the applausant laughter. It hurts the Actually it feels 669 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 1: a little death like. But yeah, well here's one coming. 670 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: Here's what's going on. We know Peyton Manning's m O. 671 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,359 Speaker 1: He's not the most naturally gifted gun in the world, 672 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 1: so he works his butt off. But comedy is something 673 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 1: you either naturally are or you aren't, and he works 674 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: so hard to try to be funny and it just 675 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: doesn't work put he's putting in the time and it's 676 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: not paying off. I didn't say that was funny. They 677 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,240 Speaker 1: said John Mayer couldn't make it a comedy either. What happened? 678 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: You got a great on a scale for an athlete, 679 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: he's good. No, he's not. That's what I'm tired of that. 680 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 1: Because he's an athlete, he is treated like he's that, 681 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 1: that that he's some sort of comedic genius. Because he's 682 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: it's always always commercial. So I just can't get enough 683 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: of this commerce. There are plenty of funny athletes, and 684 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: then there's Peyton Manning, who would be rejected as an 685 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: uncle in my worse for athletes who are the funny 686 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,359 Speaker 1: athletes that have been on SNL and done a good job. 687 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 1: Who beats him? Why do you have to be on 688 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: s n Why need to be on some corporate mandated 689 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 1: show to be funny? Who beat you? Listen to it? 690 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: I don't know the average Joe up the street. Any 691 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: offensive lineman, everybody any offensive When you are when you 692 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: are taking comedy and making things unfunny, everybody beat you, 693 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: like keeping your mouth shut would be beating him. Save 694 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: this for the Chris Wesley Colan serious about comedy podcast. Yeah, 695 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: I've spoken to Marcus Gannon. He's not funnier than Baton Manning. 696 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: That guy is serious. Everybody, everybody calmed down, you said 697 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: offensive lineman. Everybody calmed down about Joe Thomas. Joe Thomas 698 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: can pipe down on Twitter a little bit. He is 699 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: he I would say this, he is naturally funnier than 700 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. Okay, by the way, that's not a high bar. 701 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 1: We found one, well one offensive lineman. Good job, so 702 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: he comes down just you went to Tennessee like thirty 703 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: years ago. Yeah, that's true. Alright. Finally moving on. I 704 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: I'm not a huge Payton Manning comedy fan, but I 705 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: think we have it out for all the Manning brothers. 706 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 1: You even hate Cooper Manning. I know that personally. You've 707 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: told me privately on boozy nights and have no opinion 708 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: on Cooper Manning. Peyton Manning one of the greatest quarterbacks 709 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: and football players of all time, also one of the 710 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 1: least funny human beings. Take a fair trade off, can't 711 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: you can't be both? Uh he's got it all to 712 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:35,839 Speaker 1: me anyway. Um, but opinions very That's why it's good 713 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 1: to have all the all the four horsemen back together, 714 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 1: so we could be arguing about a Manning brother once more. 715 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 1: That's how the show exists mostly. Uh. Finally today, Oh, 716 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 1: it's time to bring it back. You know what it is. 717 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: It's time for quality to fantasia, which, loosely Mark translates 718 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: to what is your fantasy? Yeah, I thought it was 719 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,800 Speaker 1: what's your fancy? Fancy? What's your fancy? What is your fancy? 720 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 1: Always I thought it was fantasy. Well, I think we 721 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 1: put what's your fancy into a Google translation thing and 722 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 1: it came out as such, So it's all people are 723 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 1: confused by it. But basically, this is a scenario where 724 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: each of us will throw out um, a kind of 725 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: like a fantastical um storyline or proposition. Uh, and and 726 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: then each of us have to think about it. What 727 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: is your fancy? Uh? With this story? Where do you 728 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 1: come down? How would you handle it? Uh? Mark? We 729 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: always have to start with you, So why don't you 730 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: get us going a little? All right? The future of 731 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: the NFL rests in your hands? It was the sacks back, 732 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 1: I guess it is. You must choose one of the 733 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 1: following options to shift the look of pro football forever. 734 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,440 Speaker 1: Option one you have the choice to immediately expand the 735 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 1: league by adding eight new teams, giving US forty clubs total. 736 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 1: These eight teams would satisfy the NFL's mandate for a 737 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:03,400 Speaker 1: grand international essence, with new franchises in London, Berlin, the Hague, 738 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:09,280 Speaker 1: the Netherlands, Mexico City, Paris, Bangladesh, Costa Rica and Moscow. Naturally, 739 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 1: this would require adding another five hundred plus players to 740 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 1: the league and two brand new divisions. The schedule would 741 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: balloon to eighteen games over twenty weeks, with primetime affairs 742 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: being up to six nights a week to accommodate team 743 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,760 Speaker 1: travel for a league aiming to become the biggest sport 744 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 1: on planet Earth. Or option two contraction, you must eliminate 745 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,800 Speaker 1: eight teams of your choice, reducing the NFL to twenty 746 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: four franchises across two conferences, no talk of expansion for 747 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 1: another twenty years. While this might sound like something you'd 748 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: immediately dismiss, it would give football fans fewer teams, stocked 749 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,800 Speaker 1: with far more talent and no riff raff, solid quarterback 750 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: play and roster depth from team to team, with a 751 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 1: playoff system that seats the entire conference instead of handing 752 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 1: fans some eight and eight divisional winning stink bomb qualis 753 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 1: to Fantasia. Good question to go a mark, I'll get 754 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 1: I'll get us going here. I think both instances were 755 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 1: in the NFL. They're both extreme. Yeah. One, the one 756 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,879 Speaker 1: where you contract the teams makes the league maybe better 757 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: from a competition angle, but it ruins the NFL in 758 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: which in the in the sense that you rip the 759 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 1: hearts out of a full quarter of the fan bases 760 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,240 Speaker 1: in the league, and from both from a pr angle 761 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: and just from a decency angle, that just it wouldn't fly. 762 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: And I personally, and you know, maybe they would eliminate 763 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 1: the other New York team, which certainly would to be 764 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 1: the Giants. I would I would never come back to 765 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: the NFL if they just ripped my team away in 766 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 1: the in in the search for some type of better league. 767 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: And the other one, yeah, just think how sloppy the 768 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: football would be. They got all the games they can, 769 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: the injuries, think about the travel issue. Um, if I 770 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:57,359 Speaker 1: had to choose one, I guess I guess I would 771 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 1: do the contraction route. But I don't think I could 772 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,240 Speaker 1: watch it in fell that you know, had such disdain 773 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: for their customers. It's an interesting scenario. I would definitely 774 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: not do the eight new teams. I don't want to 775 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 1: see a watered down NFL. The idea is to make 776 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: the games better, not worse. Contraction, I would choose that 777 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: if I had to, and I would be willing to 778 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 1: sacrifice the Bengals, you know, I would throw them in 779 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: what also bad as as it seemed to. But I 780 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,360 Speaker 1: think you would run into many political hurdles in this scenario. 781 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: With the um monopoly scenario, oh yeah, you would have 782 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 1: new leagues popping up, and I believe politicians, especially in 783 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: the cities getting contracted, would push for those new leagues 784 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 1: to work in. The NFL would have competition. Yeah, Ultimately, 785 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: I agree with everything Dan and West said, and I 786 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: would I would probably go with contraction as the lesser 787 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: of two evils. I don't think it would It would 788 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: be devastating to all those cities. You know, sports leagues 789 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: rise and contract. This is it happens that this league, 790 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:03,840 Speaker 1: because you know used to rise and contract. Uh, you 791 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: know way back in the day. You know, there's relegation 792 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: obviously in Europe. I don't think it would necessarily kill 793 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 1: the popularity of the sport. I would hate to see 794 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 1: it though, but I definitely, you know, don't want to 795 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: be covering the old Bangladesh Bengals four in the morning. 796 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:25,720 Speaker 1: But Cincinnati's uh, well, since I guess what's the market 797 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: for NFL football in Bangladesh, It's gonna be massive according 798 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: to this NFL world, they're gonna go because the this 799 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: Chargers in the small stadium thing is gonna be a 800 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: big hit. They're gonna play for like forty people in Bangladesh, 801 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: like a little tiny arena for forty people. Would they 802 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: be playing with real Bengal Tigers? So everything's out, everything's 803 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 1: on the table. By the way, you know who would 804 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 1: own the Moscow NFL team? Right because the guy already 805 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 1: tried to own the Bills. Who's that? Who? Trump number? Oh? 806 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: I thought you meant Puttin He's already got a Super 807 00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: Bowl ring. Um, so keep that in mind as well 808 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: if you want to go that route. All right, West, 809 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 1: you're up in the news today. Questions started by ProFootball 810 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 1: Focus who would you start your franchise with? And Elliott 811 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: shore Parks of NJ dot Com took it in another direction. 812 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 1: He said he would not take any non quarterback over 813 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. Paul has two. You start your franchise with 814 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz or any non quarterback in the NFL? What 815 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 1: what's an interesting question? Any non quarterbacks? So you can J. J. Watt, 816 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, Ardell Becca, J. J. Jones or Carson Wentz 817 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: or Carson Wentz the most important position in sports? Am 818 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: I missing something here? Is Carson once proven to us 819 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: that he's a guy that you well? But he or 820 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: has Sam Donald? You know the writer who posited that 821 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: certainly believed, must believe Carson Wentz is a top ten quarterback. 822 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 1: Consider it? So then it's not that crazy because would you, 823 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 1: you know, would you rather have Philip Rivers at you know, 824 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 1: age eight or whatever? And but what do you want 825 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 1: to have some proof that that's actually the case rather 826 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 1: than a gut family based on a couple of big 827 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: orders of game tape. I think you won at least 828 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: half a season to know that his wonky mechanics have 829 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,879 Speaker 1: been straightened down in this in this world, I don't 830 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 1: know how you acquire quarterbacks, what kind of team it is, 831 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 1: but yeah, I would take I would take the field. 832 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: I would take you know, Julio Jones or J. J. Watt. 833 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,720 Speaker 1: I was going to say, were I would too, because 834 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 1: if we're talking about an expansion team, it's gonna take 835 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,839 Speaker 1: With the most of these expansion teams, it's gonna take 836 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,280 Speaker 1: half a decade for them to become not a flukey winner, 837 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: but a consistent winner. And you're gonna have time to 838 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 1: get your quarterback. But I want to put him in 839 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 1: a better situation when that guy arrives. Yeah, this is 840 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: kind of an offshoot, but who would be the guy 841 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: you would take for me? Would probably come down between 842 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:57,279 Speaker 1: David Johnson and Julio Jones. Maybe Julio just because the 843 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: way the league's going, But I think consider in age, 844 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,400 Speaker 1: I would take Odell Beckham over Julio Jones. But I 845 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 1: could see why you would take Julio. Beckham's insane. That's 846 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 1: the only thing that holds me back. Maybe going to 847 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 1: his direction. It's also a Hall of Famer. Yeah, mike 848 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 1: O Antonio Brown, he's thirty. I believe that's a little 849 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: little Well, that's why I'm not a Julio Max not crazy. 850 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: If it was what like a year ago before these surgeries, 851 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 1: then I would have said, what, Yeah, the back, sir 852 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: Donald is in the mix. Yep, A lot of options, 853 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 1: A lot of options. All right, let's move on now 854 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: the old zeuser. We'll throw one out there. That's me. 855 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:42,399 Speaker 1: You are new Cleveland Brown's defensive coordinator, Gregg Williams. During 856 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,719 Speaker 1: the course of your controversial career, you have gained a 857 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 1: reputation as a no nonsense hothead who demands results from 858 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 1: his players at the risk of halacious verbal lashings. You're 859 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:54,920 Speaker 1: also one of the central figures in the bounty Gate scandal, 860 00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 1: the forgotten offseason scandal that, in our opinion at least 861 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:01,760 Speaker 1: trounced the flake Gate and Bullygate in terms of general 862 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 1: intrigue and entertainment. About that's a little aside. Let's be 863 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,720 Speaker 1: like sleeping people sleeping a little bit on how wild 864 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: bounty Gate was. I'm not looking back at it wistfully, 865 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 1: but if I had to choose one to cover exhaustively 866 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:19,080 Speaker 1: for months, that would be to me the power Rankings 867 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:23,800 Speaker 1: number one. I digress. It was a strange one. Bounty 868 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,359 Speaker 1: Gate nearly ended your career, but now you are down 869 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 1: to your last chance as at d C in Cleveland, 870 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: and you know bringing back the pain for pay bookkeeping 871 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 1: will take Cleveland out of the cellar and back to 872 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: the playoffs. In fact, you know it. You know it 873 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: thanks to a premonition in a dream eleven and five 874 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 1: a f C North champion playoff future unknown. It's just 875 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 1: it's basically the dream was after clinching the n f 876 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 1: C North in Week seventeen, all of a sudden, prospects 877 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 1: to be a head coach. Everything is in play. The 878 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,840 Speaker 1: risk is obvious. If you get caught for a second 879 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 1: time for bounty work, the public fallout will be atomic. 880 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: In your career in football will almost certainly be finished. 881 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:11,319 Speaker 1: Have you guys been capping? I attempted to, Oh, I 882 00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 1: know what I would say, because he's fifty eight years 883 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 1: old and he's already been His reputation is heavily marred, 884 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 1: whether people want to remember that whole incident or not. 885 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 1: And I don't think he's the only coach in the 886 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:27,400 Speaker 1: league that's, you know, push for aggressive type play. But 887 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,879 Speaker 1: that went beyond the pale entirely. And I would say, 888 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: you don't do it because we live in an age 889 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: where you're not going to get through a season where 890 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: out these young players are gonna say we've heard about 891 00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 1: this too. We're not gonna be a part of this. 892 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: And secondly, someone's gonna talk you're never gonna get this 893 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 1: is not in nineteen sixty two. Someone's gonna talk it 894 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: got out last time, We'll get out much quicker this time. 895 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 1: And Greg Williams will go down in disgrace. He's gonna 896 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,799 Speaker 1: live for another thirty plus years and has to live 897 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: with that, just to go eleven and five. No, I agree, 898 00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: he's gonna want to earn some money for the rest 899 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 1: of his life, and he has. He has great proof 900 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 1: that it's hard to lose your job, that you're always 901 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 1: find a friend or someone that believes it. Maybe he's 902 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,800 Speaker 1: not a coordinator, but maybe a linebackers coach somewhere. I 903 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,359 Speaker 1: don't think it's going to happen, and I don't think 904 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: they really learned that much from it. I remember in 905 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,839 Speaker 1: All or Nothing and with the Rams, there's one moment 906 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 1: where the official tells the Rams to stop, you know, 907 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,320 Speaker 1: you know, pushing a little bit after the play, and 908 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 1: you know what Jeff Fisher does. He goes to his players, goes, oh, 909 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 1: the the officials just warned me about it. I want 910 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 1: you guys to go harder at them, and they're like, yeah, yeah, 911 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:32,480 Speaker 1: Fisher said that. I was like, they don't care, all right, 912 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 1: if fum Greg Williams. I'm thinking to myself, it's not 913 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: too late to become a better person, Greg Rosenthal. Another year, 914 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,840 Speaker 1: all right. I went back and listened to an old 915 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: show of ours by the way from two years ago, 916 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 1: to remember what qualiy to Frontage. It was like whether 917 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:55,080 Speaker 1: it's either or it was some interesting stuff. There was 918 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:58,360 Speaker 1: a Tom Brady trade to the Raiders on the table. 919 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 1: We all mocked Reggie mc nz as someone who would 920 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 1: never have a job in the NFL. Again. West did 921 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,799 Speaker 1: not take Tom Brady, did not want him on on 922 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Smart going on. So in that same vein 923 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,920 Speaker 1: so I kept Derek Carr. Car wasn't even involved. It 924 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:15,839 Speaker 1: was it was you didn't even have to give up Car. 925 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 1: You probably thinking of that. Uh. You are Arizona Cardinals 926 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 1: general manager or Steve Time and you get on the phone, 927 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: you're actually check and you get a call from Steve Kime. 928 00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 1: You've lost Carson Palmer for the season to another devastating 929 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 1: knee injury. You call up your bill and you get 930 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 1: this call from old Kim Bomb and here's the offer 931 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 1: for are you? This is good? They don't want to 932 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 1: waste Bruce arians potential last year. They want to play 933 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,919 Speaker 1: ahead a little bit. They're gonna send you a two 934 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 1: thou eighteen first round pick from the Cardinals, a two thousand, 935 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:03,320 Speaker 1: nineteen first round pick for the Cardinals and Larry Fitzgerald 936 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 1: in exchange for young Jimmy Garoppolo, who can provide the 937 00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals with some sort of future. And no, by 938 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 1: the way, you know you've got so many receivers just 939 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 1: throwing Malcolm Mitchell for me, send him back, settle back, 940 00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:24,680 Speaker 1: little Malcolm Dirgeon. It's too fantasia. Here's the thing that 941 00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 1: the Patriots obviously believe in Garoppolo. They believe he is 942 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,239 Speaker 1: a guy, or or else they would have traded and 943 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: ready they they're trying to figure the situation now, and 944 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 1: they're handling it, I think the right way. Um. And 945 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,720 Speaker 1: if they truly believe he is a big time player, 946 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 1: and if they send it, send him to a team 947 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 1: like Arizona, which is very close to being right back 948 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 1: in contention, if some things go the right way, if 949 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: they got two number one picks, is that what you 950 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: said to number one picks? And those those can easily 951 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:56,280 Speaker 1: end up being thirty, thirty one, thirty two overall picks, 952 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,319 Speaker 1: and then it's like, not that's sexy to me. It's 953 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,440 Speaker 1: not like you're getting a banger of a first round pick. 954 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 1: So for that reason, I say no, because Garoppolo, you 955 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 1: think good and if he goes to Arizona, they're gonna 956 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 1: be great. This was an easy one for me turn 957 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:09,919 Speaker 1: it down. As much as I want to see Larry 958 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald in a championship ringing, as much if I'm Belichick, 959 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:15,600 Speaker 1: he's been one of my favorite players, I don't need him. 960 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,359 Speaker 1: I'm winning super Bowls without Larry Fitzgerald. I got Brandon Cooks, 961 00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:21,240 Speaker 1: I got Julian Edelman, I got Amundola, I've got Malcolm Mitchell. 962 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 1: I don't need Larry Fitzgerald, and I don't need your 963 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 1: draft picks either. I need a backup quarterback in case 964 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 1: my quarterback goes down because I'm in the business of 965 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 1: winning super Bowls, not building pretty rosters. I'm with you. 966 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 1: I I think they that the moment to get a 967 00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:38,759 Speaker 1: king's ransom for Jimmy g already passed. I mean, you 968 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: could you let let the Cardinals call you back two 969 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 1: days later with a sweeter offer if they want let that, 970 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,239 Speaker 1: but do what keep doing what you've done, own that situation, 971 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 1: and they're gonna keep Jimmy Garoppolo around and he's going 972 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:52,680 Speaker 1: to succeed Tom Brady and maybe Belichick's coaches for another 973 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 1: eight or nine years. Mark, all right, well this does 974 00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 1: get into similar territory. Is something that Greg mentioned, but 975 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,920 Speaker 1: why not we will go for it. Spent a few 976 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 1: weeks into the future of the date is July two 977 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 1: thousand seventeen. We are all locked in for another season 978 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:13,359 Speaker 1: of work. But you are Bill Belichick Right now. You're 979 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:16,359 Speaker 1: bunkered inside the Patriots facility, eating a two week old 980 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 1: turkey club, and pondering the day's most devastating headline. Jimmy 981 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 1: Garoppolo has just announced his retirement, choosing to ditch football 982 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:29,440 Speaker 1: to join a clandestine yoga retreat in Central Virginia. You're 983 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:32,440 Speaker 1: also thinking about the text you just received from Bill Parcels. 984 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 1: It reads, sorry to hear about Jimmy g This is 985 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 1: off topic, but I need I need you to know something. 986 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 1: There were always too There were always to Bill Parcels 987 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:44,840 Speaker 1: me in my secret twin sibling. His real name was Bobert. 988 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 1: Bobert Parcels replaced me for my final two seasons with 989 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:51,839 Speaker 1: the Jets for a reason I can't get into right now, 990 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 1: point being any interaction you had with me in n 991 00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 1: were actually with Bobert Parcels, my twin. I just wanted 992 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 1: you to know that. Then the phone rings, it's Raiders GM. 993 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:08,600 Speaker 1: Reggie Mackenzie breathing heavily and sounding frazzled, sugar Bill. I'm 994 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 1: offering you a deal Derek Carr and next year's first 995 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 1: round pick for Tom Brady right now, yes, or no 996 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 1: qualis to Fantasia. That would made my brain hurt. So 997 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:28,239 Speaker 1: why where does the bobber just like when you're the 998 00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,920 Speaker 1: phone rings during another weird thing that was happening to him. 999 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 1: That's his life. So but that okay, that's just kind 1000 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:37,440 Speaker 1: of like something that happened in between. That's right, it's amazing. 1001 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:44,360 Speaker 1: I am saying, no, Reggie Mackenzie, Uh, why would I 1002 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: want to trade Tom Brady unless the I know Derek 1003 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 1: car is great. You could set you up for the 1004 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:53,680 Speaker 1: future and and everything like that. But I am not 1005 00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:57,879 Speaker 1: trading Tom Brady right now. Here's what I know Tom 1006 00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:01,160 Speaker 1: Brady can do. He can trash the greatest secondary of 1007 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 1: the twenty one century and the fourth quarter for one 1008 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,840 Speaker 1: super Bowl win. Then he can do the greatest comeback 1009 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 1: in NFL history for another Super Bowl win. I don't 1010 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,239 Speaker 1: know if Derek Carr can do those things on the 1011 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 1: biggest stage possible. I know Tom Brady. Not only Tom 1012 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:15,839 Speaker 1: Brady can, but he's improved every year for the past 1013 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 1: four years. I'm keeping that guy you've you've changed to 1014 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 1: and that a couple of years ago you you decided 1015 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 1: to get rid of Brady for Khalil mckamary Cooper in 1016 00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: the first round pick. I'm gonna have to go back 1017 00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:28,439 Speaker 1: and listen to that, but it's probably that's quite a hall. Yeah, 1018 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 1: it's pretty good. Um give me Derek Carr. Tom Brady 1019 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 1: is older. Mm hmm. Yeah. I think it's compelling. I mean, 1020 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,359 Speaker 1: but I agree with West, I don't. I've been trying 1021 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,759 Speaker 1: to trade Tom Brady in these various scenarios for like 1022 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,359 Speaker 1: five years, and it would have been a bad move 1023 00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:48,840 Speaker 1: every time we've We've never done it. Calls to fontas 1024 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 1: yet that didn't involve Bill Belichick. Whatever is that he's 1025 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,920 Speaker 1: cat dip in this game? The uh? I mean, maybe 1026 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: the real answer to the question is you call up 1027 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 1: people close to Bill Parcels. Uh, and you see if 1028 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: they know any medical professionals he can go see because 1029 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:07,760 Speaker 1: he seems troubled. He seems in trouble. Bill or Bobbert, 1030 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. I'd be a little 1031 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:13,120 Speaker 1: worried that Bobbert does not. I think that would say 1032 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 1: Bill is struggling. That would tell me that Bill and 1033 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:19,399 Speaker 1: Bill actually their friendship is full back on right, I think. 1034 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 1: I think if you care about Bill Parcels, you try 1035 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,800 Speaker 1: to do something and also tell me that Bobert Parcels 1036 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 1: had attend nothing lead in the third quarter of the 1037 00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 1: nine Championship, but Bobert lost. He lost it. Yeah, Bill 1038 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: wouldn't have. Where was Bill during this? He can't explain, 1039 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:37,120 Speaker 1: He won't explain. Do we does anybody else want to 1040 00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,360 Speaker 1: do one? I'll do I'll do one quickly. How about 1041 00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 1: that West? You okay with deferring to Greg on this? 1042 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:46,160 Speaker 1: Absolutely nobody I'd rather defer to Okay, we could do 1043 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:48,719 Speaker 1: more than one. Right, it's time here we are. You 1044 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:53,360 Speaker 1: are Mark Sessler. Oh, in Mark's case, you know this 1045 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 1: should be an easy role. But for the two of you, 1046 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 1: you are Mark Sess. So you you don't know that 1047 00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,760 Speaker 1: you're Mark Sessor. You have all the thoughts and dreams 1048 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 1: that Mark Sessler would, You're not aware that you used 1049 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: to be someone else. You're visited by an angel. That angel, 1050 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: strangely is Will Selivan, very similar to Will Selvan. He 1051 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:15,320 Speaker 1: he gives you two options. Will Selva the Mark Sessler 1052 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 1: of a good life football. Yeah, it was a Rizally 1053 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 1: gonna be Aaron Coscarelli. Now now it's Will Selva as 1054 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: an angel. And he gives you two options, and he 1055 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 1: tells you once you choose, I will erase this conversation 1056 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: from your memory. You will not know that we had it. 1057 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,360 Speaker 1: But I give you these two options. Number one, you 1058 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: can have a dream season rooting for the Cleveland Browns 1059 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 1: that no one sees coming, the greatest story in sports history, 1060 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: the least likely Super Bowl championship team ever. They escape 1061 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 1: from one in fifteen to the playoffs in a magical 1062 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl run ending in Minnesota, that you will get 1063 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 1: to cover live at the game. Do the podcast afterwards, 1064 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 1: or I will be able to double your salary. We 1065 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:08,920 Speaker 1: will put around the NFL podcast on air on NFL Network. 1066 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, the Heating Light podcast now 1067 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 1: has a show on NFL network too, that will not 1068 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 1: happen quality, it's too fun. But the heat Light podcasts 1069 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:25,720 Speaker 1: getting popped up. They said anything about the throwback throwback 1070 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 1: pats not involved, not involved? But you are Mark Sessler. 1071 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 1: You you only have his thoughts live throwing copper this week. 1072 00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:36,160 Speaker 1: Check it out? Um one. Yet this is because I'm 1073 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:38,160 Speaker 1: trying to put myself in Mark shoes and which one 1074 00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:41,080 Speaker 1: would make him happier? And I don't know the I 1075 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:45,320 Speaker 1: don't either. I don't either. The tough one. I'm gonna 1076 00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,919 Speaker 1: take b double the salary e t NFL on air 1077 00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 1: Heating Light podcast supported by this arm of NFL media. 1078 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:58,439 Speaker 1: I think that that improves marks quality of life quite 1079 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 1: a bit. Do we know anything of the ratings? Is 1080 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 1: this something where it's a sustain no guaranteed beyond that, 1081 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they just get on the air. We don't 1082 00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:08,200 Speaker 1: know if they're from. Then you're back to being Mark 1083 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:11,400 Speaker 1: Sessler and life is just back like how it would band. 1084 00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 1: Our show is on the air, though too double your 1085 00:59:13,520 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 1: salary lasts more than one year. The Browns well, I 1086 00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:19,600 Speaker 1: mean the euphortia euphoria from the Browns could last multiple 1087 00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 1: years spent working in a corporate setting, you have to 1088 00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,160 Speaker 1: understand if you double your salary, Yeah, that's great, but 1089 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,120 Speaker 1: you're also putting a target on your back. If you 1090 00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:31,440 Speaker 1: don't deliver on these programming, the programs, they could cut 1091 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 1: you loose. That's I'm just I'm not saying what I 1092 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 1: believe how the heat Light television show would do or 1093 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: our show would do. But there's a lot of pressure. 1094 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:40,320 Speaker 1: I don't think Mark would like it that much. There 1095 00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:43,200 Speaker 1: seems to be a lot riding on these television shows 1096 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 1: in a dying medium. I don't think that's the way 1097 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 1: to go. I think Mark, if I'm Mark, give me 1098 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: the dream season, give me the glory of that run 1099 00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 1: and being in Minnesota when it happens, and being in 1100 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 1: the Browns locker room. You can never take it away 1101 00:59:57,680 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 1: from You could take away all that other stuff and 1102 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 1: be can never take away um hoisting the Lombardi you 1103 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 1: can never take away Jimmy has them hoisting a Lombardi 1104 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 1: trophy in the US Bank Stadium. I don't know what. 1105 01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:15,720 Speaker 1: I'm really baffled by this one because the second one 1106 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 1: is not just about me. It would benefit multiple other people, 1107 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:23,560 Speaker 1: including my family. Like the Browns. One would also benefit 1108 01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:26,520 Speaker 1: thousands and millions of other people that have suffered with 1109 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 1: that team. So it's a little bit of a crazy 1110 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 1: But because no one knows that I made the decision, 1111 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 1: and you won't even know, I won't even know. I 1112 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 1: your mind willis I did not hear that the Browns 1113 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 1: will never win the super Bowl in the second equation 1114 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 1: is part of it. It's not, it's not but they won't. 1115 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 1: But they won't but we don't. But that's what I 1116 01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 1: That's where I'm living now. So I like the idea. 1117 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 1: I think it just it's I like the idea of everything, uh, 1118 01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:54,919 Speaker 1: in work life and for our whole group and everything else. 1119 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 1: Having the chance to blow up double salary sounds good. 1120 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:01,200 Speaker 1: And maybe the Browns when the super Bowl three or 1121 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,120 Speaker 1: five hundred years from now and they all know about 1122 01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:06,680 Speaker 1: it from another realm. So that was kind of like 1123 01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:11,080 Speaker 1: a Mr Destiny one. Greg. Yeah, remember the James blush vehicle, 1124 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:16,600 Speaker 1: But I did see that it's the only James Blushi 1125 01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 1: vehicle worth checking out? Linda Linda Hamilton's is the Is 1126 01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 1: it the only James Blushy vehicle? Period? Beluci had some 1127 01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 1: vehicles they didn't run. He had that one. Uh, sitcom 1128 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 1: and James Hey Courtney Thorne Smith. Yeah, I was a 1129 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 1: big He had a couple where he was acting with 1130 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 1: like a dog was a lead character, I believe, if 1131 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,000 Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, another dog and animals. And it's tragic 1132 01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:40,920 Speaker 1: what happened to his brother. But hey, James, you're not 1133 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:45,440 Speaker 1: the Blues Brothers. Let's stay off the stage, all right. 1134 01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 1: Who saw the James Lucy James not getting that on 1135 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 1: any other NFL podcast, I think, um, okay, we gotta 1136 01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:58,480 Speaker 1: go um.
