Speaker 1: about two thirty in the afternoon here and nice and warm. Scottsdale, Arizona.

15
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: Might have a little golf on tap for Minianna. We

00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: so I might move. Might not be anything over the

20
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: weekend and we'll have podcasts, probably Monday Tuesday, and then

21
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: maybe I'll do a mail bag, and I'm like Thursday,

22
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: because you know, next week's labor Day. I think a

23
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: lot of people are gonna be screwing around, So I

24
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: might move up the day and just do the mail

25
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,839
Speaker 1: bag on a Thursday and then we'll just be rocking

26
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: and rolling the following week. NFL Season Week one. Let's go. Also,

27
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: share this podcast with your friends, share it with your enemies,

28
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: share it with anybody. I don't really care, but just share.

29
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: We're big into grassroots here at the volume. Well, I

30
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: definitely am. I if your Draymond, you know, just throw

31
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: up a video on YouTube to like seven million people watch.

32
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: But you know, the little middle cooffe here needs all

33
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: the help we can get. So I appreciate everyone that

34
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: listens and shares, and I couldn't be doing it without you.

35
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: If you listen through Collins Feed, subscribe to the three

36
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: and outfeed. I know a lot of you guys that

37
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: listen through the three and out feed, but you know,

38
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: Collins Feed is pretty massive, so yeah, that's where you listen.

39
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: Also subscribe to the three and out feed, and I

40
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 1: greatly appreciate it and let's get rocking and rolling. So

41
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: I'm recording this before a pretty historic night in the

42
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: National Football League. They're going to for the first time

43
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: be on strictly a streaming platform, and I'll be sitting

44
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: on a couch about twenty feet away from me watching

45
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: the game forty nine ers Texans on Amazon Prime. Now,

46
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: I'm not going to try to belittle or make fun of,

47
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, the older I'm gonna consider you, guys, the

48
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: older archaic. Just always angry at something that screams, oh

49
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: my god, Amazon Prime. No, I take it off CBS, ORR,

50
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: NFL Network or ABC. It's like, guys, it's Amazon. It's

51
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: one of the biggest companies in the world. Everyone I

52
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: know has Amazon Prime, and I've already checked it already

53
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: has all the games laid out all season. I think

54
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be very seamless. Now, al Michaels, who's you know,

55
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: one of the all time greats. I do think the

56
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 1: Kurk herb Street thing little weird, little bit of a stretch,

57
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 1: and I'm a Herbie guy. I would have liked an

58
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: NFL guy. But as we've seen over and over, you

59
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: can't just take random NFL people and turn them into it, right,

60
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: Jason Witten failed, Drew Brees never had a chance. I mean,

61
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: god awful, right, And that's no offense to them as

62
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: players and their fame obviously Cowboys star tight End Halt

63
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: future Hall of Fame, and probably Drew Brees, who many

64
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: people think I'm a hater. I'm really not one of

65
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: the all time great quarterbacks. They're just terrible media, Like,

66
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: if you're gonna put a mic in front of your face,

67
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: you better be able to entertain. And those guys couldn't

68
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: do it. Again, not shocking for those of us to

69
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: kind of look at it from that angle, but it's difficult.

70
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: So I understand Herb Street, who's been doing it for

71
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: a long time. Pretty seamless transition. You know, they wanted

72
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: Sean mcvayh he's obviously having a lot of success. They

73
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: wanted and you know, he got paid a lot of

74
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: money to stay at the Rams, and he shouldn't have left.

75
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: He could always go to television. Television's going nowhere, a

76
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: Ram's roster loaded, ready to win another Super Bowl. You

77
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: don't you'd be crazy to leave. He made the right decision.

78
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: John Lynch a little less crazy because gms make way

79
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: less than coaches. But John Lynch already super rich, like

80
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: unlike Sean mcvayh he'd worked in television, it would have

81
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: been a seamless transition, but he turned it down. And

82
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 1: don't totally blame him. He feels like they have a

83
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 1: super Bowl caliber team and you're much more famous if

84
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 1: you become Super Bowl champion. General manager John Lynch, who's

85
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 1: also in the Hall of Fame than just Colin. Amazon

86
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: games for a lot of money. So I completely understand

87
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 1: why those two guys did it. And this is going

88
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 1: to change the game for sports. As you've seen, Apple

89
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: TV now has baseball. I think the NBA, which listen,

90
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: has lost half its audience over the last decade. But

91
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: one thing that where they might not lose television revenue

92
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: money is to get the streaming services involved. And whether

93
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: it's Apple, whether it's Netflix, whether it's obviously Amazon Prime,

94
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: who's been sniffing around now for years. Pretty sure they

95
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: had a trial run last year or maybe the last

96
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: couple of years, and now they've gone all in. Who's

97
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: to say next year with Direct Tv, it's no longer

98
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: going to have the NFL package. Next year, the NFL

99
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: package is gonna be on one of these platforms. And

100
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,919
Speaker 1: here's the one unique part about these platforms, A little

101
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: like Live golf. Everyone's like, how is liv gonna survive?

102
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: It's like, guys, they don't give a shit. They have

103
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: an unlimited amount of cash. They're not in it to

104
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: make money right away. And historically, like these big startups,

105
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: they get funded with all these moneys from the vcs.

106
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: They're cool with them not making money for a while

107
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: out right now the economy is a little weird, then

108
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: they want results. But when times are good, people are

109
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,559
Speaker 1: cool with pumping a lot of money in to lose

110
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: it in the short term to make it long term.

111
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 1: Now Amazon is not exactly Live Golf and funded by

112
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: the Saudis, Like big picture, they would like to make

113
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: money off this, but I think they know we're going

114
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: to be able to make money off this. I saw

115
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: Florio wrote that they sold it based on twelve and

116
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: a half million viewers. Now are they going to get

117
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: that many viewers? Who knows? But unlike CBS and NBC

118
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: and Fox, they're not going to be judged by the

119
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: Nielsen ratings and the irony of the Nielsen ratings, Like

120
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: clearly the NFL is the most watched television product, but

121
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,559
Speaker 1: they actually have no clue how many people are watching

122
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: the games. It's based on meters a couple people in

123
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: every market that represent millions of people. I always thought

124
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: when I worked in radio, and it's not shocking to me. Well,

125
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: radio is dying, not necessarily because of the ratings, even

126
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: though their ratings are dipping all around the country terrestrial radio.

127
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,239
Speaker 1: It's because of cars. Now you can't get into someone's car,

128
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: especially if they're under fifty and their car is less

129
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: than ten years old, without them connecting to their phone. Historically,

130
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: radio had the market corner because when you hopped in

131
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: the car, the only way to be entertained and hear

132
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: anything clicked on the radio. So they kind of had

133
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: you by the balls. Now they got this little thing

134
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: called the iPhone, and I can listen to Spotify, I

135
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: can listen Apple Music, I can listen to podcasts. I

136
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: can listen whatever the hell I want. And it's not

137
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: like I'm in the podcast business. Now I know exactly

138
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: how many people are listening in radio. Like in San Francisco,

139
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: for example, there's like eight million people in the market

140
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: and it's represented by a total of twenty meters that

141
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: represents the whole market. It's a complete fugazi. It's no

142
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: one has any fucking clue how many people are actually listening.

143
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: And television ratings are a little bit similar, though I

144
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: think there get a closer grasp, Like clearly a lot

145
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: of people watch the NFL, but they really don't know

146
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: if it's twelve, fifteen million, ten million. Now Amazon is

147
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: going to know exactly how many people are streaming, and

148
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: that number, whether it's five million, eight million, who knows.

149
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: But they will know every single human being where you are.

150
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: And honestly, they'll have all your information because you know,

151
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: if you're an Amazon user, they know exactly what you like,

152
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: a little Facebook style. It's one of the greatest advantages

153
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: that these kind of Internet based companies have over the

154
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: archaic way that media has always done business. It's why

155
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: they're slowly dying and dying and dying and dying because

156
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: they can't represent the actual consumer. I tell it all

157
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: the time, it's like dirty recruiting. I tell this since

158
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: I've been in the podcast business and I started selling

159
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: from my other podcasts, I always told potential advertisers, when

160
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: you spend on radio, you have no clue who's listening.

161
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: And then at first they're like, well, my dad, he's

162
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: such a loyal listener. And then as some of this

163
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: younger generations have taken over, they realize, yeah, you're right,

164
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: partly because a lot of people are not listening anymore.

165
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: And when I tell you I have X number of

166
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: people listening, that's not a guess. That's not an educated guy,

167
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: that's a fact. We know exactly how many people listen

168
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: every single month, just like Amazon will know exactly how

169
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: many people specific demo. I actually think it'll be a

170
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: more profitable advertising business big picture once they get a

171
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: couple of years of data, because I'm like, well the

172
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: Nielsen ratings based on seventy five meters in the market.

173
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: It's like, give me a fucking break. You guys are

174
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: pulling this out of the crevices of your butt. And

175
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos, well he doesn't technically run the company anymore,

176
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,599
Speaker 1: will not. So I think tonight, if you're listening this

177
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: on Friday, you know hopefully it went pretty well. I

178
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: can't imagine it being that bad. It's herb Street now.

179
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: That are pros, but this is the way of the future.

180
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: Everything will eventually be streamed. It's the reason all these

181
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: companies are slowly pivoting that way. The cable box dies

182
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: and dies every single day, every single week, every single year.

183
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: I mean, we're probably a decade away from those not

184
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: even existing. Hell maybe even less. You know, and listen

185
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: the older demographic, like, hell, I still have cable box.

186
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: But I meet more and more of people my friends,

187
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: people younger than me that do the YouTube TV that

188
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: have all the same and it's like, what am I Now?

189
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: You could argue it's the same price point, and that's

190
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: ultimately it kind of became. But that is just the

191
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: way that we're all shifting. So the NFL was, you know,

192
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 1: I don't want to say on the forefront because Baseball

193
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 1: has already done this, but the NFL has been dabbling

194
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: now for a couple of years. Now. Here's the thing.

195
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 1: A lot of their owners are still old, you know,

196
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, the Maras, the Rooneys and those

197
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: that generation of people are very, very loyal. I've said

198
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: it all the time. My generation just isn't that loyal

199
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: when it comes to business, like, oh, you can give

200
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 1: me a better price, Like my mom used the same

201
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: people to cut their grass, or to clean their house,

202
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: or to paint their house. They would never pivot off

203
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: the people that they use in business, Like I've been

204
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: going to this guy forever. My generation will be like, yeah,

205
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 1: you know, I know my parents love this guy, but

206
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 1: I found this other guy for half the price and

207
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: he just just get to work. I mean, so many

208
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: people like my parents and their friends stick with people

209
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: for different services that they all complain. They're like, you know,

210
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: this guy's not even even that good, but god darn,

211
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,679
Speaker 1: we love Bill. It's like my generation will be like, yeah,

212
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,439
Speaker 1: this guy sucks. We're gonna use someone else for either, hell,

213
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: won't even pay more if the guy's better. And that

214
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: was the one reason that the NFL was never going

215
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: to pivot off Fox, CBS and the NBC one. They've

216
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: been so profitable to them, but to the loyalty. And

217
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: I think this next probably eight ten years away whenever

218
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: they renegotiate, and a lot of those people, you know,

219
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: not going I'm not rooting for their death, but you know,

220
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: when you're seventy five, you're gonna be eighty. A lot

221
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: of those people will not be around, and their children

222
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: will be representing the league in these negotiations. Who knows

223
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,959
Speaker 1: that there's no guarantee that these people survive. When I

224
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: say people, I mean Fox NBC depending on how powerful

225
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 1: their products are. And let's face it, Apple, Netflix. Now,

226
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: who knows that the changing landscape, you know, they could

227
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: all come back to Earth lose a bunch of money.

228
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: Things change at rapid speed. Now, if they offer more money,

229
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: the league will pivot this next time around. So this

230
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: might be the last time these next seven eight years

231
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: of just watching these games on quote unquote basic channels.

232
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: Another thing I wanted to get into college football wise,

233
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: Nick Saban got this new contract. He's making almost twelve

234
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: million dollars a year. It turns out that whenever Nick

235
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: Saban is not one of the highest paid coaches in

236
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: the country, I think it's like top three. His contract

237
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: has this clause that kicks in he can automatically renegotiate.

238
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: And I used to say this about Jim Harbaugh because

239
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 1: what he did at Stanford then wanted for the forty

240
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 1: nine ers, and then his relevancy when he got to

241
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: the University of Michigan. He was just the ultimate cash cow.

242
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: You brought Jim Harball in whether you paid him five

243
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: million dollars a year, eight million dollars a year, and

244
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: you printed money. Now that slowed down a little bit

245
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: these last several years, up until this last season when

246
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: he beat Ohie State. But he was You got in

247
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 1: the business with Jim Harbaugh, as an owner, as an

248
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: athletic director, as a university he printed you cash. I

249
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,079
Speaker 1: think when it comes to college athletics, Nick Saban might

250
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: be the greatest cash cow in the history of the sport.

251
00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: When it comes to coaches football or college basket. Well, now,

252
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: hear me out. About two weeks ago, I U my

253
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,319
Speaker 1: brother plays at this club in Sacramento area and every

254
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,079
Speaker 1: Wednesday night they have like a men's skins game. I'm

255
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: talking to golf and I went to it with him

256
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: and I go, you know, three four or five times

257
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: a year, and I played this game on Wednesday night.

258
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: Get to go home, see my mom. It's a it's

259
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: an easy one. Play a little golf, you know, try

260
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: to win a little money. But you know, it's it's hard.

261
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: You gotta make a birdie on the tough holes. It's

262
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: it's hard to win a skin. But we're playing with

263
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: this guy who actually a family friend. He's probably in

264
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: his mid fifties and has a couple, has three children

265
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: who were all college ages. They're all going to colleges.

266
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: And this guy played football at UC Davis in the eighties.

267
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: Was funny is when we were playing golf, he told

268
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: this story he was when he was there, Dan Hawkins,

269
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: Mike Ballotti, Chris Peterson, and Gary Patterson at TCU. So

270
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: all these coaches that became head coaches at all these

271
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: Division one schools all across the country were there, and

272
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: he's telling me about Gary Patterson at time was like

273
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: a coffee runner. He's like the one guy who was,

274
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: you know, like twenty two twenty three years old at

275
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: the time, he was like a player coach basically just

276
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 1: finished playing. He went right into coaching. Who we all,

277
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 1: every single one of us offense or defense, was like,

278
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: this guy's going to be a star. This guy's a genius.

279
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: Was Chris Peterson. He's like, I'm not I'm not saying

280
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: that now because twenty twenty two and I've seen this resume.

281
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: I'll promise you all the guys on the team went,

282
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: this guy's going to be a stud. And if you've

283
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: ever been around Chris Peterson are obviously people that have

284
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: listening that have followed his career. You know, the dude

285
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: was a genius. I mean, he was fan to elite coach,

286
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: elite coach. But we're talking and I don't know him

287
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: that well. My brother knows him a lot better. And

288
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: he starts telling me about his kids and I'm like, Oh,

289
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: where do your kids go to school? He's like, well,

290
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: my daughter just graduated from the University of Colorado. But

291
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: I have two boys. One's a freshman in college and

292
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: the others of sophomore in college. One goes to the

293
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: University of Tennessee and the other goes to Ole Miss

294
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: And I just, you know, just through family, know a

295
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: lot of people I think that have like college age kids,

296
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: and I can't tell you how many of them have

297
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: sent their kids to the SEC. And these are all

298
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: people from California. And you can't tell me without Alabama's run.

299
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: And let's face it, Alabama's Run has made the SEC.

300
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: The SEC before was just a conference that played at

301
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: one o'clock for US in California on CBS. Well, once

302
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: Nick Saban got there and they started winning national championship

303
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: after national championship, and let's face it, a rising tide

304
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: lifts all boats. LSU one, Georgia one. Their conference made

305
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: way more money, They became way more relevant. It didn't

306
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: just drive the applicants for the University Alabama, in my opinion,

307
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: it did it all over the SEC. And we've seen

308
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: it in college recruiting all these California kids. Naja Harris

309
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: was my neighbor. Where'd he go? Alabama? Now, you could argue,

310
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: once upon a time, like when I was a sophomore

311
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: in high school, Dj Williams at Dayless Al went to Miami,

312
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: so the best in the bright Tom Brady once went

313
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: to Michigan. California guys have been nationally recruited, but at

314
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: the rate that they're consistently going to the SEC. But

315
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: I listen, it's not just about football players. These guys

316
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: are just students. I can't tell you how many stories

317
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: I consistently hear about parents sending their kids to SEC schools.

318
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: And listen, it's my theory. I don't necessarily have data

319
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: to back this up, but you can't tell me that

320
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: football and the cool quote unquote coolness and relevancy of

321
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: those schools hasn't added to this. Because before, like when

322
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: I was in high school, where'd you got Well, you

323
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: couldn't get into UCLA or CAW. You fucking just ended

324
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: up at Sack State or your Cow Pauli or San

325
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: Diego State or Fresno State or wherever you didn't maybe

326
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: Oregon or Arizona or Arizona State, but you didn't venture

327
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: to the South. I didn't know one person. I knew

328
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: a lot of people in Sacramento schools. Obviously my high

329
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: school was pretty big Woodland. I didn't know anyone they

330
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: went to the SEC. Not one. Now there's countless kids,

331
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: and I just to hear in some of these stories

332
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 1: all the time. So I think Nick Saban won. He's

333
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 1: dramatically underpaid. Whatever the highest paid coaches, he should make double.

334
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: And I actually had this thought. Every single school in

335
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: the SEC should probably chip in a million. So if

336
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: Alabama's gonna pay him twelve million dollars, all the other

337
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: thirteen schools said chip in another thirteen million a million

338
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 1: each and get him to twenty five million dollars. Because

339
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: of the money he's made them. It is you could

340
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: argue the greatest hire in the history of sports if

341
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: you factor in his impact to the conference. Now you

342
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: know Belichick or Phil Jackson. I mean, there have been

343
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: great hires, but those guys like Bell Belichick made Robert

344
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: Craft a lot of money. He didn't the league like,

345
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,239
Speaker 1: he didn't impact. He just beat the Steelers, right, I

346
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 1: mean he didn't do anything for the Raiders or the

347
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: Chargers or the Cowboys were Nick Saban impacted everybody. And

348
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: when I see these numbers, my first thought always is, God,

349
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: he's underpaid. There was a huge breaking news today about

350
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: Tyron Smith. A lot of people say this, Now, I'd

351
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: be lying if I know he's a He's a really

352
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: good player when he was younger. He's been injured a lot.

353
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 1: First ballot. I don't know if he's a first ballot. Obviously,

354
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,239
Speaker 1: he's one of the best tackles in the last you know,

355
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: several decades when he was right, but he got hurt

356
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: a lot. He hasn't played a full season since twenty fifteen.

357
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 1: And part of the when you draft right part of

358
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: drafting is they always say, don't draft for need, and

359
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 1: that's true, but you don't just draft. There is a

360
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: balance and part of the reason the Cowboys took an

361
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: offensive lineman and definitely a guy that projects to be

362
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: a tackle in the first round was big picture Tyron Smith.

363
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: One he's just getting older and two he's injured a lot.

364
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: Plus they had other offensive lineman. Go, you do have

365
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 1: to factor in who's on your team, right, because why

366
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: would they just drafted another pass rusher or another like

367
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: they I don't want to say they drafted for need,

368
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: but that impacted their draft. And when this guy got hurt,

369
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,199
Speaker 1: there was a story yesterday that is hamstring ripped. Then

370
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: it turns out has actually what happened was is like

371
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: the knee injury that Beckton had, where the hamstring rips

372
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: off the back of your knee. It sounds incredibly painful.

373
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: Like when you read it, you're like, I don't wish

374
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:18,959
Speaker 1: that upon anybody. But that's a major blow and the

375
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: Cowboys because when you win, right, if you have a

376
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: playoff level season, you're gonna draft in the twenties, So

377
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: you don't get to pick the best players in the draft.

378
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 1: Now that sometimes looking back five six years later, you

379
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 1: got t J. Watt or whoever late in the first round. Ironically,

380
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys once passed on t J. Watt

381
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: for Taco Charlton. But that's a whole nother story. But

382
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 1: the reality is I didn't know much about this guy,

383
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 1: this offensive lineman from Tulsa and reading some articles from

384
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,239
Speaker 1: people that cover the Cowboys, like who's gonna fill in

385
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 1: for him? Because, let's face it, you lose your left

386
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 1: tackle when you have a forty million dollar quarterback. It's

387
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: never ideal. But they also let their right tackle walk

388
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 1: in free agency. They have, you know, kind of a

389
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: domino effect on your offensive line. Now I've seen it before.

390
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: In the season, you can patch work something together for five, six,

391
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 1: seven games. It's hard right before the season, when you know,

392
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: seventeen games the guy is not available, the Cowboys would

393
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: have died. Just have them available for half the season.

394
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 1: Give us seven or eight and we'll figure out the

395
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: other seven or eight games. I saw the forty nine

396
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 1: Ers the year they made the Super Bowl in twenty nineteen,

397
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: Joe Staley broke his leg in McGlinchey tours MCL and

398
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: they still were the number one seed. Hell, last year

399
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,640
Speaker 1: they made the NFC Championship and Mike McGlinchey, I think

400
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: tours hamstring or tourist something and miss the majority of

401
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: the season, so it can be done in season. I

402
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: do believe it's a lot more difficult. When you have

403
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 1: to go the entirety without your star pass rusher, your

404
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: star left tackle, obviously a quarterback, you're completely screwed. Now

405
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 1: they will have an opportunity to make some claims, but

406
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 1: the problem's going to be is the claiming order. Once

407
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 1: the big cuts come. When you draft, it's based on

408
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 1: draft order that does not change till week four. So

409
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: if the Cowboys, let's just say, because they're gonna be

410
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: some offensive linemen to get cut that will get claimed. Now,

411
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 1: most guys to get cut I don't think will be

412
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: viewed as immediate plug in play players and at best

413
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,239
Speaker 1: their backups. The problem is, let's say the guy is

414
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: pretty good, that guy is probably not making it past

415
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: the top ten in the waiver claim order. So the Cowboys,

416
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,360
Speaker 1: who I think their draft picks like twenty two, twenty three,

417
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,120
Speaker 1: twenty four wherever it was more than likely the guy

418
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 1: that they would want would never get to them. And

419
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 1: doing some research about the kid that they drafted, whose

420
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 1: name is Tyson Smith, it kind of throws you off

421
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: because once Tyron Smith, this guy's Tyson Smith is he

422
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 1: is a pretty raw product. He came out after his

423
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: redshirt sophomore year played at Tulsa. Definitely talented, but Texans.

424
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: Some people in the league like he needs a lot

425
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: of work. Now, I have no problem with the Cowboys

426
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: taking quote unquote a project with a ton of talent

427
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: in the twenties. As someone told me in the NFL,

428
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: he had ten holding penalties last year like that that

429
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: was a major issue. Form But this is a team that,

430
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 1: let's face it, is not just cool with winning six

431
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: seven games and they're not even trying to win ten

432
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,639
Speaker 1: games like they're trying to win in the playoffs or

433
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: their coach is going to get fired. Now, you could

434
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: also argue that, well, what do you guys think was

435
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: gonna happen? This is an aging player who has played

436
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 1: a total I think of thirteen games the last two years.

437
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty, he only played two. Last year, I

438
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: think he played eleven. So it's just it's part of

439
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,719
Speaker 1: the deal when you got older players that are often injured.

440
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: The problem is, it's one thing if the guy's a

441
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: linebacker or a slot corner or a wide receiver. It's

442
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: another one he's you're starting left tackle. It's just a massive,

443
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 1: massive blow. NFL kickoff is still a few weeks away,

444
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: but you can get in on the action now on

445
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: FanDuel Sports Book with their NFL Super Win bonus right now,

446
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 1: anyone who places at least a fifty dollars Super Bowl

447
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: winner bet we'll get five dollars back for each win

448
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: your team has during the regular season. You cant the

449
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 1: Rams to repeat at eleven to one, you get the

450
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 1: Ravens at twenty to one. Sneaky, kind of like the Ravens.

451
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: I actually think they're almost flying a little bit under

452
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: the radar. They missed the playoffs last year. Some of

453
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: the Lamar drama do not forget the Ravens have like

454
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: seven million players injured. I think they're going to be

455
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: a powerhouse this year. There are also a ton of

456
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: other future market available like team win totals, division winners,

457
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,280

484
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: feels like just all the reports reading about the joint

485
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 1: praxes is the Las Vegas Raiders, who Belichick called their

486
00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 1: facility the taj Mahal of football. If you haven't seen yet,

487
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: I think they went to Dana White's office offices for

488
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: the UFC. Obviously Dana White, Boston guy, Diard Patriot guy,

489
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: invited their whole team there. Belichick put on one of

490
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: the championship belts. He had a big smile. It was

491
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: pretty funny. If you haven't type it into Google, it's

492
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: it's a funny watch. But by all accounts, the Raiders

493
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: kicked the you know what out of the Patriots back

494
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 1: to back days in their joint practice. And the one

495
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 1: guy that everyone kept reporting on that couldn't be stopped

496
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: was DeVante Adams. And I would say, for me personally,

497
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,719
Speaker 1: DeVante Adas probably a favorite player in the league. Now

498
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: I'm biased, He's a Fresno State guy. I mean I

499
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 1: followed his career. I couldn't follow it really any closely.

500
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: But part of the reason is knowing people that know

501
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: him really closely. I've never actually met him, but I know.

502
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: I mean his mentor who now is a coach for

503
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: actually the Ravens, who just tells me that they look

504
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 1: pretty good. So I think the Ravens is gonna have

505
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 1: a big season. Everything that DeVante stands for is what

506
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 1: I would want if I was a general manager and

507
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 1: drafted a player, and everyone that's ever been around him

508
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,439
Speaker 1: would reiterate that he is beloved as one he's just

509
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: an elite player, but the way he conducts himself, the

510
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 1: way is his teammate, just the type guy he is.

511
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: But when you play with Aaron Rodgers, who is one

512
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: of the greatest players in NFL history, also kind of

513
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: a polarizing guy and just a bigger star than you,

514
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say you're overshadowed, but you're never the star

515
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: on the team. It's always Aaron Rodgers team. And he's

516
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 1: going to play with a quarterback who now makes I

517
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: think forty million dollars, and Derek's well established is one

518
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 1: of the better top twelve thirteen quarterbacks in the league.

519
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: I think we all agree he's a good player, but

520
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: DeVante is now the best player on the team. This

521
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,640
Speaker 1: is now, to me, DeVante's team. Like when you think

522
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: the Vegas Raiders, the first guy you think about, in

523
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: my opinion, is Davante Adams. And I'm not saying he's

524
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 1: necessarily the most important because the quarterback always is. If

525
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: Derek got hurt, they would be in trouble. But as

526
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: long as Derek is healthy, I do think this is

527
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: DeVante's Like he's the guy and he you know, he's

528
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: already a quote unquote star, but I think the way

529
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,400
Speaker 1: that we look at him now, he's got a chance

530
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: to even take his legacy game and everything to a

531
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 1: completely different level. And by all accounts, that's what he's

532
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 1: doing now. You could argue the Patriots, he lose JC Jackson,

533
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: he don't have anyone to cover him. Bad matchup. I

534
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: think the Patriots. I get more and more nervous by

535
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: the day with the New England Patriots because part of

536
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: the problem is that the Patriots tweeted out this picture

537
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: of when they went to Dana White's the UFC thing,

538
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,119
Speaker 1: and it's the entire team and everyone's smiling, having a

539
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: good time and front and center is Belichick, and then

540
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: flanked on one side is Patricia and the other side

541
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: is Joe Judge. Now, those guys had proven to be solid,

542
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 1: you know, coaches for Bill Belichick on special teams and

543
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: on defense. Now one guy's coaching the quarterbacks and the

544
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: other guys coaching the offensive line and calling the plays.

545
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be a hater. Bill

546
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 1: Belichick's the greatest coach I've ever seen. That is fucking nuts.

547
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: That is that's the craziest thing I think I've ever

548
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: seen in the history of the NFL in terms of coaching.

549
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: That is. That is wild, and ultimately I think it's

550
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 1: going to Now you could argue their team is not

551
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: as talented, but I just can't view you as anything

552
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 1: but a team that's not going to be that good

553
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: relative to their standard. I mean, they still might get

554
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 1: to seven wins, but I can't view them as as

555
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: a playoff team with Bill, even if he takes over

556
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: the play calling, he is still depending on Joe Judge

557
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: to coach Mac Jones and Matt Patricia to coach the

558
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 1: offensive line. I'm out, I'm out, but I'm telling you

559
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: I think DeVante I don't want to quite go Cooper

560
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: Cup season because I mean, we may not see one

561
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: of those for a long time, but I think he'll

562
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: pretty quickly. It's like, this is DeVante's team, and that's

563
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: a good thing for I think even for the Raiders.

564
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: Takes a little pressure off Derek in a weird way

565
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: for a guy that's had to kind of carry, you know,

566
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 1: a debacle of a franchise. I mean what Derek has

567
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: been forced to kind of carry over the years, whether

568
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: it was from moving, whether it was from coaches getting fired,

569
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: whether it was from last year, you know, rugs killing

570
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: the dude in Vegas, to the John Gruden emails. Like

571
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: most quarterbacks, Brady Manning don't have to put up with

572
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: that crap. Let's transition really quick to another quarterback. There's

573
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: a lot of hype on the Vikings. Obviously, Coward is

574
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: picking them to potentially be like the one seed. He

575
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: thinks they're gonna be a team that's gonna win twelve

576
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 1: thirteen games. I've heard a lot of people just the

577
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: cover football talk about them being really good. And if

578
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: you listen, Colin had Kevin O'Connell on on his podcast

579
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: this week. He's good like Kevin O'Connell's an impressive guy,

580
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: six five, good looking dude, former quarterback. He's like Kingsbury

581
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: but feels like he's much more my type offense, right

582
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: the McVeigh Shanahan like an NFL style offense, not running

583
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: the spreadbs, but unlike Kingsbury, he's off I think he's married,

584
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: and he said he's got three or four kids. Actually

585
00:29:58,560 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: I think he said he's got his fourth kid on

586
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: the way. So I'm a Kevin O'Connell fan. But part

587
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: of their their main issue in my opinion, the last

588
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: several years, they've had two fatal flaws. The offensive line

589
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: has not been that good, and last year their dbs

590
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 1: were a joke. I want to say dbs, I mean corners.

591
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: And let's face it, the amount of pass rushers that

592
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: consistently coming to the NFL has like come in just

593
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: at rapid rates. Right, more pass rushers every year coming

594
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: in the league than offensive linemen. So I don't necessarily

595
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: blame you if your offensive line is average. It's hard

596
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: to find offensive line and they haven't been shitty enough

597
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: the draft high but dbs like they missed on a

598
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: bunch of picks, and I texted with the guy with

599
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: the Niners, and I said, you know, because they just

600
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: joined practice with them, And I said, do you think

601
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: that their offensive line and dbs are going to be

602
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: a major problem? And he's like, I actually think their

603
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: offensive line is better than most people think. Because I

604
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: said that because I saw a bunch of you know,

605
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: videos going viral of Nick Bosa and kin Law and

606
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 1: these guys just destroying them and these like in fairness

607
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 1: boasted was just on a mission those two days. Anthony

608
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 1: Munios might have struggled with the guy, but he's like,

609
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: his point was, I actually think their offensive line is

610
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,719
Speaker 1: gonna be okay, and ultimately their offense has not been

611
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 1: their problem. They average twenty five points a game, which

612
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: you know could be a little better. I think they

613
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: could be better on offense this year than they were

614
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: last year. But then he said, their dbs are going

615
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: to be an issue. Their corner play is going to

616
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: be a problem. It's a passing league. This is not

617
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety eight where every single week you're facing Barry Sanders,

618
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: Emmett Smith and Ricky Waters. Ricky Waters the only other

619
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: running back I could think about the tell of my

620
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: head that the late ninety Marshall falk. You know, so

621
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: you need to be able to cover on the outside.

622
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: And if you tell me their dbs stink, I'm gonna

623
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: have a hard time. I'm not saying that they can't

624
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: compete to be a wild card, but so many people

625
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: are picking them to win the division. I just don't

626
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: see it, not when your major flaw is outside corner play,

627
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 1: because that is a position that how many teams that

628
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: you're gonna play are gonna try to exploit. Why many

629
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: teams have capable quarterbacks into their star wide receivers all

630
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: over the place, and even non star wide receivers, you

631
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: can find random wide receivers and gets seventy to eighty balls.

632
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: So if you can't cover people on the outside, and

633
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: let's face it, John Randall ain't walking through that door.

634
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: Their defensive line is okay, but it's not as good

635
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 1: as it was four or five years ago. I think

636
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: they could have some issues on defense now. Their offense,

637
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,719
Speaker 1: let's just let's even assume their top six seven offense

638
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: in the league. Well, if their corner play is bottom

639
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: five eight in the NFL, that to me, I can't

640
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: pick you to win the division. Let's fly around a

641
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 1: couple of things. There was a video that went viral

642
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: today of Aaron Donald swings helmet just a massive, massive

643
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: brawl against the Bengals. I get, like, I don't you

644
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: don't control who you play in the preseason, and I've

645
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: said over and over these preseason matchups are so dumb.

646
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: Why you don't just play the opposite of your division.

647
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: If you're in the NFC West, you play the AFC West.

648
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 1: If you're in the AFC North, you play the NFC North.

649
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: Keeps logistically, everyone close. None of these games matter. Ninety

650
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: percent of these teams don't take these games seriously at all.

651
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 1: It's just pointless travel. Someone responded on social media like,

652
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: why do you care about the travel? I mean, I

653
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: don't personally, I'm not traveling to these games. It just

654
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense for the Rams to go out

655
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: and play since now these two teams played in the

656
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, so ultimately Aaron Donald specifically, you know, was

657
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: one of the main reasons the Bengals do not have

658
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: a ring on their hand. So the animosity and some

659
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 1: of these practices I get. And even watching Hard Knocks,

660
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: which was probably the worst episode so far of the season,

661
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: though there was the funny clip when Duce Staley lost

662
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: his voice and was trying to coach the guys up

663
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 1: and he could barely talk. Is there are fights in

664
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 1: all these joint practices? How could there not be? Right?

665
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: Because it's not a game. So even if the coach goes,

666
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: if you swing, you kicked out of practice, it ain't

667
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: the same and getting kick out of a game, it's

668
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: like whatever, I don't even want to practice anyway. And

669
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: seeing some of these clips now, ultimately a lot of

670
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 1: people are I don't think anything should happen, Aaron Donald,

671
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: it's practiced, this isn't the game. I don't actually care,

672
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: but it's gonna be a big deal. It'll be interesting.

673
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 1: Maybe they find them or something. Who knows. Again, I

674
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: doubt anything happens, but you know, I just think some

675
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: of these matches are insane. Now, whether logistically you're close

676
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: to the team or not, you would still fight if

677
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: you had a joint practice with a team in your

678
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 1: opposite of your division, whether you're you know, the Nighter's

679
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 1: Raiders or it's you know Nighter's Bengals or Rams Bengals, right,

680
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 1: but still, I just I don't understand why everyone travels

681
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: so far for these games, like in the NFL, like,

682
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:50,879
Speaker 1: what are we doing? Speaking of the Raiders last year,

683
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,360
Speaker 1: one of the more head scratching picks. Let's face it,

684
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: the Raiders had a lot of head scratching picks with

685
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: Mayok and Gruden. They drafted a lot of guys high

686
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: in the draft for several years that did not make

687
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 1: that much sense. And I would say the two that

688
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: are the biggest, most baffling was Damon Arnette a couple

689
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: of years ago, who had an Ohio state, was a

690
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: major character red flag all over the NFL. He's currently

691
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,760
Speaker 1: in jail. He's literally behind bars right now now. Ultimately

692
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: they cut him last year or whatever, I don't know,

693
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: for having machine guns on Instagram like that. That's just

694
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 1: a tight pick where the entire league goes, what the

695
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: hell are these morons doing? Now? Leatherwood to me is

696
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,240
Speaker 1: a little different category, and there were some question marks

697
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,760
Speaker 1: to him at Alabama. He had still been a several

698
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: year starter at Alabama, So you know, Damon Arnette two,

699
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: but his character red flags from everything I've heard, were

700
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: in a completely different category than Leatherwood. The problem with Leatherwood,

701
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 1: despite being a starter for Ohio State's awesome too, But

702
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 1: Damon Arnett. People didn't question his ability. Well, I actually

703
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 1: there's some people that thought he was a little overrated,

704
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,879
Speaker 1: but the character stuff was really really bad. The leather

705
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: would think a lot of people kind of question like

706
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,839
Speaker 1: is he that good? And should he Like A lot

707
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 1: of teams had him like second round, maybe even third

708
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: round just because you played at Alabama Ohio State and

709
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: your starter doesn't mean you're a lock top twenty pick.

710
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 1: And when they took him, I think a lot of

711
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: people around the league kind of scratched their head. And

712
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,919
Speaker 1: he immediately was a disaster, Like he couldn't play last year.

713
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 1: They had to keep removing him from games. And I

714
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: saw a headline the day from one of the guys

715
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: that covers the team that said everything is on the

716
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: table right now, cutting him, trading him, benching him, moving positions.

717
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: It is a disaster pick and one of the reasons

718
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: the Raiders. One thing Mayock and Gruden did a pretty

719
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 1: good job of is drafting in the middle rounds. If

720
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 1: they just would have hit on one or two of

721
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: their high picks and missed on some others, they would

722
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 1: be loaded. I honestly, they could be the Chargers if

723
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: instead of taking Cleveland Ferrell, they had taken Devin White,

724
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,720
Speaker 1: instead of taking Damon Arnett, they had just taken another

725
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,800
Speaker 1: player who's good. We could be talking about one of

726
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 1: the best teams in the league. But those miss picks

727
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 1: to me are why. Yeah, I could see them win

728
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: ten games. I could also see them win eight games.

729
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: Their offensive line stinks. Sa Kuon Barkley sat on a podcast.

730
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: The sad part about sa Kuon Barkley in college, he

731
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: was remarkable. He was He was like Barry Sanders but bigger.

732
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 1: I mean, he's one of my favorite college players in

733
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: the last couple of decades. And he gets to the

734
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: Giants and you didn't need to be Bill Polian or

735
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: Bill Wallace to realize, holy shit, this guy's good. Now,

736
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,439
Speaker 1: you shouldn't take a running back at two. I don't

737
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 1: care if he's Walter Payton or Barry Sanders in twenty

738
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 1: twenty two, twenty one, two nineteen. Taking a running back

739
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 1: that high is a fireball offense. And that's why Dave

740
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: Gettlman will never, you know, be a general manager of

741
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: the league again. But he was really talented, and he

742
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 1: was like once upon a time when Zeke went in

743
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: the top five. Early on, it was clear Zeke was

744
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: one of the best players in the draft. Sa Kwan

745
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: immediately one of the best players in the draft. But

746
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: then he gets hurt. He's never been the same to me. Now,

747
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: part of it is offensive line has stuck, but he

748
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,720
Speaker 1: really hung his hat on. He was so much faster

749
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 1: than everyone else. He was so much faster, and he

750
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 1: also had like kind of wiggle. He could make you

751
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: miss and he could outrun you, which to me, the

752
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: number one thing that you don't need as a running back,

753
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: like I can live without, is top end speed. You

754
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 1: don't need to be a four four guy to be

755
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 1: a great running back. It helps if you are, but

756
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 1: if not, like, who cares. This guy had that and

757
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,359
Speaker 1: actually he was like four to three, but he's never

758
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 1: been the same. Now he claims that he's gonna come

759
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: back better than ever, which I would be rooting for.

760
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 1: I hope that's the case, but it doesn't feel like

761
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: the last several years he has been even remotely close

762
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: to that guy. And watching just you know, you know,

763
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm rooting for not necessarily expecting it.

764
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: The Broncos are potentially gonna trade Mike Gasecki, and then

765
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: when Mike McDaniel was asked about it, he's like, you know,

766
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 1: it's stories a little misleading a lot of guys potentially,

767
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: and he kind of caught himself like, they're clearly might

768
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 1: trade the guy. The problem is because he's on the

769
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: franchise tag, his cap hits pretty high. Maybe they think

770
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: because they have so many weapons on the outside right now,

771
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: they're not going to use them. I've always kind of

772
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: liked Kasecki just as a pass catching tight end, a

773
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 1: guy that can run a big target. I don't know

774
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: why they would move him. Maybe I don't know, Maybe

775
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 1: he doesn't fit the offense for McDaniel doesn't think he

776
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: can block. Maybe he got spoiled being around George Kittle

777
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: having a tight end think a block. But I like Kasecki,

778
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,479
Speaker 1: Kennie Pickett a lot of bus every day, the buzz.

779
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,840
Speaker 1: He's making progress, he's making progress. He might be the starter.

780
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it over and over. I expect him

781
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 1: week one to be the starter. Now, I don't have

782
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: any inside information on this, but it just feels like

783
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers are gonna pull a ropadope because it makes

784
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 1: no sense for them to put out that he's going

785
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: to be the starter. You just prepare for Trubisky, and

786
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: ultimately Trubisky just becomes the backup. They paid him like

787
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 1: a backup, though I do think they hoped he was

788
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,479
Speaker 1: going to be the starter. But mister Bisky is not good.

789
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: And I often get dms from Bears fans that one

790
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,959
Speaker 1: say I'm a hater. I'm not a hater. I wish

791
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: the Bears were good. They're just not. I wish, you know,

792
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,280
Speaker 1: I thought their coach was gonna be good. I just don't.

793
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: I can't tell you I think their coach is gonna

794
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 1: be good when I think he's gonna be bad. Now

795
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: I'm not. You know, no sudamis here. I could be wrong.

796
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 1: I can predict the future, but I feel pretty good

797
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 1: about making the educated guests that a lot of people

798
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 1: like say his name correctly. It's not Uberflus, It's Eberflus.

799
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, I don't really care. You know, this

800
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: is a guy that was not going to be a

801
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,439
Speaker 1: head coach anymore where else, So I'm not gonna worry

802
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: about if I'm missaying his name like Belichick, Andy Reid,

803
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll, like those guys deserve to have their names

804
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: say correctly. Mike Tomlin, Kyle Shanahan, Sean McVay, Matt Lafloor,

805
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,439
Speaker 1: Michael Floor. I'm sorry this Uberflus Eberflus like, I don't

806
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,439
Speaker 1: really give a shit. He wins some games. I'll figure

807
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,439
Speaker 1: out how to say his name, but I expect Katy

808
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:59,400
Speaker 1: Pikett to be the starter. Jay Gruden, who has just

809
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: been out of the league for a couple of years,

810
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,240
Speaker 1: he's a Sean McVeigh guy because he made Sean mcvagh

811
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 1: an offense. The Grudens took pretty good care of McVeigh

812
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 1: over the years. John Gruden gave him his first job.

813
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 1: When the Shanahans were fired. Jay Gruden not only kept

814
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: him on, he elevated him. He eventually became the offensive coordinator.

815
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 1: I've seen Sean McVeigh. I think he said it in

816
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 1: the article that Wickersham wrote about him that I would

817
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: never have been a head coach if it wasn't for

818
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: Jay Gruden. And those are the type relationships that, whether

819
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 1: it's football or whether it's real life and business, you

820
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: take care of the people that took care of you.

821
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: So seeing that Jay Gruden is going to be a

822
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: consultant for It's gonna work remotely, you know what, I

823
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: envisioned Jay Gruden's on the staff full time next year.

824
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 1: I would imagine part of the reason they're doing that

825
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 1: Dan Seider is still paying him money, maybe he's still

826
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,319
Speaker 1: cashing checks, maybe he's just still easing his way in.

827
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 1: But I would expect Jay Gruden to be like Sean

828
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: mcvayh's offensive coordinator in the next couple of years. And last,

829
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 1: but not least, I saw that Tom Brady is going

830
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 1: to play in the preseason game on Saturday night. Let's

831
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: just face it, this Bucks thing feels very, very weird.

832
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,879
Speaker 1: And I know everyone's saying that, but it's because it does.

833
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,839
Speaker 1: Tom disappears in the middle of training camp. Now, I've

834
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: heard stories about people that said, if you just look

835
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: at it, like he had told everyone when he retired

836
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: that he was going to go on a family vacation,

837
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 1: and then once he unretires, he's like, you know, I

838
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 1: gotta stick with that. I'm sorry. When your kids, it's

839
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 1: one thing if your kids are forty and they got kids,

840
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 1: and once you set dates, it's hard to change. With schools,

841
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 1: it's another thing when all your kids are fifteen and under,

842
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 1: like they do whatever you tell them to do, so

843
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 1: he could have easily rescheduled the vacation. I don't know

844
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: bye week after the season. He's Tom Brady can do

845
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: whatever he wants, and his kids are like eight to

846
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: thirteen years old. Now, I think it's pretty clear that

847
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 1: his wife does not wanting to play in the NFL.

848
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: She wants him to stop playing football. She said that

849
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: years ago. And this is a situation that anyone that's

850
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,920
Speaker 1: been in their significant other, their wife, their girlfriend, it

851
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,440
Speaker 1: does feel like there's some ten there. Now. This is

852
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 1: all educated guests, but let's just put two and two together.

853
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 1: A guy that is more addicted to football than anyone

854
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 1: not named like Bill Belichick Andy Reid just leaves in

855
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 1: the middle of training camp for a vacation, I give

856
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: me a break, and his offensive line are dropping like flies.

857
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 1: I just think he's kind of in this weird, weird spot.

858
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: And if I wanted to put on her hat, I'd go, well, Tom,

859
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 1: what are we doing this for? You're not doing it

860
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 1: for money, because not like you make You're not even

861
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,320
Speaker 1: close to the highest paid player in the league. We

862
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: don't need any cash. We're already super rich. You've literally

863
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 1: accomplished everything. You've won seven super Bowls, you got the

864
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: one up on Bill, you won, you left, you immediately

865
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 1: won the MVPs, the personal accolades, the team accolades, Like

866
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 1: what are we doing this for? And he'd say, because

867
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 1: I love it and I'm still really good. I don't

868
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: blame him for saying that, but it's pretty clear like

869
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,319
Speaker 1: this is not like, is he kind of half in

870
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 1: half out? I see a lot of people saying that, like,

871
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 1: is Tom Brady already somewhat checked out in the moment?

872
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 1: You do that, especially in any industry, let alone up

873
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 1: football player, it's hard now. I did see some clips

874
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,239
Speaker 1: and everyone came out his first day back like best

875
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,200
Speaker 1: practice of the of his time as a buccaneer. I

876
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: saw someone with the buccaneer said that his first practice

877
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: back from the vacation was his best practice, which may

878
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,280
Speaker 1: be true, but it feels like Tom Brady takes practice

879
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 1: pretty seriously. I've known people that have joint practice with

880
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 1: the Patriots. They're like, every single practice, every time you

881
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,960
Speaker 1: see him, he's a monster. So I think most tom

882
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,320
Speaker 1: Brady practice a pretty high level. But it's it's weird.

883
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,360
Speaker 1: There's just no way around it. Their season. It's not

884
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 1: weird when you get injuries, but they just have lost

885
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 1: I think four of their five starting offensive linemen, and

886
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: I see a lot of people it's eventually he's gonna

887
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 1: fall off a cliff. The way most guys fall off

888
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,359
Speaker 1: a cliff when they get older is arm strength. Well,

889
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't. His arm hasn't remotely slowed down. Peyton Manning

890
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 1: couldn't throw. Roethlisberger couldn't throw. Tom still can throw. Now

891
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 1: he can't move, So you could argue maybe the demise

892
00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,280
Speaker 1: of him. If their offensive line falls off a cliff

893
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 1: with a bunch of injury and he's just getting peppered,

894
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 1: that could be the downfall, and maybe you get to

895
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:05,759
Speaker 1: the point where you don't want to get hit. Now

896
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 1: you could argue, how often it's Tom Brady really get hit.

897
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,239
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like you get touched that often. But

898
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: the buck season, man, I don't want Tom to necessarily

899
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 1: go away. But if I was a betting man, you know,

900
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 1: if you told me Tom Brady retires in the middle

901
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 1: of the season, at this point, week seven, he's just like,

902
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,440
Speaker 1: I'm out. I never in a million years would have

903
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 1: believe that like a year ago, two years ago, that's out.

904
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: But who knows at this rate, especially if you know

905
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 1: he's trying to save a marriage. Subscribe to the podcast
