Speaker 1: I mean, you know, apparently it was a thing today.

30
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 5: Evidently got of a big deal. It's the first time

31
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 5: Coldplay has been relevant other than that that Beatles movie

32
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 5: that came out.

33
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: Now, wait, how long A Viva Levita couldn't have been

34
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: twenty years ago?

35
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 4: No? No, no, no, no, come on.

36
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: Viva lavin No way, Viva Viva Levita was like maybe

37
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 1: ten years ago.

38
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 4: I think he might be right.

39
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: And wow, that was really fast that Alex Tischer had.

40
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 5: Two thousand and eight. So was that long ago?

41
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 4: Wow? So right in the middle for us.

42
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, but way two thousand and eight seventeen. If we're

43
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 5: gonna do math.

44
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 4: Well, so right there right in the middle.

45
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 5: There, right a meeting part of the curve in.

46
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 4: The media, part of that curve. I can't believe it's

47
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 4: been that long ago.

48
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 5: No, I mean, they bring people together in large drogs.

49
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 4: But do they bring people together or do they do?

50
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 4: They did? I think you can. You can argue both

51
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 4: sides of the coin on that.

52
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 5: Well, the fact that he issued a statement now about

53
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 5: it blaming cold Play and it's cold Play chuckling at him.

54
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 4: And we didn't have to be on the kiss camp.

55
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 4: We didn't have to be on this. It's not my fault. Man.

56
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 5: It's on the back of the ticket or the digital

57
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 5: representation thereof that you receive from wherever you got your tickets,

58
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,080

60
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, anything that you can't in other words, basically it

61
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,520

62
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 1: sue us.

63
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,640

Speaker 4: any fine.

65
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 5: There's a lot of disclaimers.

66
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I could save ink everywhere because people know by

67
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 1: this point, just say, hey, if you hold this ticket, you.

68
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 4: Can't sue us. That's all you need to know, as

00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 4: anybody knows.

70
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: Okay, great, Yeah, you talk about fine print all this stuff,

71
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: blah blah blah.

72
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 5: This infies us about lot of stuff.

73
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 4: That's all it is.

74
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, look, I never got paid for being

75
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 5: part of a video game many many years ago. I

76
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,399
Speaker 5: couldn't even get them to give me a free game.

77
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 5: So I mean, what am I gonna.

78
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 4: Do if you were on the kiss cam? Maybe?

79
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 5: Maybe because I was in the crowd, I was the

80
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 5: cheering cam.

81
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: But you know what, you look at Mike Harmon, he's

82
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: the guy in purple shorts that's cheering and yelling.

83
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 5: Well, a couple of years ago, I went to a

84
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 5: game with my brothers and ended up on camera for

85
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 5: quite a while. It became a thing around here, mocking

86
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 5: me for for a bit.

87
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 4: All right, very nice, Okay.

88
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 5: I had nothing to do with the incident in question.

89
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 4: Your your brothers have anything to do with it, because

90
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 4: I think they might know.

91
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 5: You normally just accuse them of stealing things. I don't

92
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 5: think they co opted any camera wells at a cold

93
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 5: Play concert. My brothers wouldn't walk across the street to

94
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 5: have anything to do with the cold Play shows.

95
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: Okay, cold Play is. Coldplay is very innocuous. Cold Play is.

96
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 5: I'm not denigrating them. I'm just telling you that my

97
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 5: brothers are Coldplay is.

98
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: It's not something where we say, oh I have this

99
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: invenate hatred of there's this ingrained hatred.

100
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 4: Of cold Play. No, this is okay.

101
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: You could like Coldplay. Okay, I'm into their stuff. I

102
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: don't like that Coldplay doesn't invoke that kind of reaction

103
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: for telling.

104
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 5: You they wouldn't care to walk across the street for it.

105
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 5: That's how little cold Play is meant in their respective life.

106
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: And I like some cold Play, So I'll just hey,

107
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: would you walk across the street for something? I might

108
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: walk across the street.

109
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 4: I mean I might do that. I mean I might not,

110
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 4: but I might walk away that street.

111
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 5: It depends how big the street is. Are we talking

112
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 5: Vegas streets all right? Because if Vegas streets.

113
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 4: Probably not. That's gonna take me. It's sent me forty

114
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 4: five minutes to walk across the street. Not gonna do it,

115
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 4: Not gonna do it.

116
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: Uh So, yes, you could take your pick tonight again

117
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: waiting for baseball to start tomorrow night. We got big

118
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: headlines out of the WNBA, out of the NFL, and

119
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: out of the NBA, A story that. Look, I admit,

120
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: there's not a lot that really surprises me, but seeing

121
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 1: this today, I was initially very surprised.

122
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 4: Then I got it.

123
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: But to make a decision this fac Damian Lillard is

124
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: going back home, and by home, I mean he's going

125
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: back to Portland as he rehabs all year from.

126
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 4: The injury suffered.

127
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: Look he had, he had the blood clot as well,

128
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: he had the torn achilles. H missed the playoffs this

129
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: year for the Bucks and it was an easy exit

130
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: for Milwaukee out of the playoffs. Here Milwaukee buys him

131
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: out for over one hundred million dollars, and hey, the

132
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: narrative was Damian Lillard one of the most exciting players

133
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: in the NBA who's kind of passed his prime a

134
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: little bit, but still incredibly exciting. He's gonna take his time,

135
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: can rehab on his own back in Portland with his family,

136
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: and he'll take his time picking his next team. He'll

137
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: take nothing but time. Dah, this is a decision that

138
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: could be a year away. Nope, it's already made, as

139
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: he has decided to go back to Portland for three

140
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: years and forty two million dollars. Now, it's not a

141
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: lot of money, but obviously he's someone who is Now

142
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: you get to your age thirty five year coming off

143
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: an injury. The Blazers are gonna pay him this year

144
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: just to rehab because he's not going to play all

145
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: season long, and they're looking at what's going to be

146
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: likely a two year deal. He's also getting a no

147
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: trade clause and now he and Lebron James are the

148
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: only ones in the NBA with no trade clauses.

149
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 5: He also almost all that money from Milwaukee. I mean,

150
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 5: you know, so he talked about with Bradley Beal yesterday.

151
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 5: It looks smallish. No, no, no, he's still getting a novelty

152
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 5: check from No.

153
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 1: I said when I was getting that he's getting one

154
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: hundred and thirteen million dollars. But this contract, this is

155
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: what the Blazers are on the hook for, and it's

156
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: three years and forty two million. And you know, I'm

157
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: happy for Damian Lillard. And I'm starting to realize that

158
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: not that I feel guilty, but.

159
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 4: That I feel.

160
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: Looking looking back at his career, there was a lot

161
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: of players. Let me let me start here. There's a

162
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 1: lot of thoughts on my head. I've had a lot

163
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: of coffee in the last few minutes. So one of

164
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 1: the conversations day, yeah, one of the kind I used

165
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: to rule. One of the conversations that Rick Buker and

166
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: I've had for a long time, right, whether it was

167
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: on the air off the air, is about how there

168
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: are a lot of NBA players that enjoy the lifestyle

169
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 1: of being an NBA star, and the winning is not

170
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: something that they're so obsessed with. And look, this is

171
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: why players like Kobe and Lebron all cut through because

172
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: we know how badly they.

173
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 4: Want to win, right KD Steph Curry? All right?

174
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: Why we gravitate to these guys we talk about all

175
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: the time. We know how badly they want to win.

176
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: But not every star is like that. And you see

177
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: many stories of stars who get to the NBA and

178
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 1: are great players. But is winning their ultimate goal? Winning

179
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: an NBA title and then when they win, go win

180
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: one again? Or is the ultimate goal? Hey, this is

181
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: my dream to play in the NBA. I love the lifestyle.

182
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: Winning is great, but if I don't win, it's okay.

183
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: The old Scotti Scheffler, Hey, winning is not that big

184
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: a deal. You'll not gonna like it for two minutes anyway.

185
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: And there's a lot of players who are like that.

186
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: And now seeing Damian Lillard, who had took him forever

187
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: to leave Portland and it was, you know, kicking and screaming,

188
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: Hey dude, you gotta go.

189
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 4: Man.

190
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: You I'm sick and tired of talking about how great

191
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: a player you are at ten thirty at night in

192
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: the West Coast when only you know a dozen Portland

193
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: Trail Blazer fans live got to see you go for

194
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: fifty and start hitting stuff from the logo because the

195
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: Blazers are terrible and they're not on the radar screen. Dude,

196
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: you could be winning titles. Man, you could be going places.

197
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: You could go somewhere. And finally, after years and years

198
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: and years of this, okay, I'll go. And he goes

199
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: to Milwaukee and it doesn't go great, and it didn't

200
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: seem like he was ever really happy. His preferred destination

201
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: was Miami and he couldn't get there.

202
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 4: So now what does he do? He goes home.

203
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: Clearly he doesn't care about winning, So I wonder how

204
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: much he ever cared about winning. And you know what,

205
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: sometimes I can say, that's okay, right, it's okay if

206
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 1: you if this is the kind of player, but you

207
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: have to understand if you're going to trade for a

208
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: guy like that, that that's what motivates him. And so

209
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: clearly seeing this with Damian Lillard, yeah, already with this

210
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 1: injury coming, I want to go back home. Maybe I

211
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: never really wanted to leave to begin with. But I

212
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: want to go back home to play and play the

213
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: rest of Mike or whatever it is it is, I

214
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: can still find a joint, but still gonna go out

215
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: and try to win every night. But am I I'm

216
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: but if I don't make it far in the playoffs, okay,

217
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: if I don't win the title, it's okay. I'm gonna

218
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: try to win wherever I can. But am I gonna

219
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: go crazy about building a winner? Or am I gonna

220
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 1: go and just enjoy the rest of my career? That's

221
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: Damian Lillard and I feel like we've we we've we've

222
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 1: underestimated or or misappropriated him into the into the the

223
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: the group of players where it's like, hey, you're a

224
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: difference maker, goin a championship. You of course burn to

225
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: go win. He doesn't burn to go win. He burns

226
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 1: to play. He loves to play, He loves the game.

227
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: He does incredible things in Portland. He's one of the

228
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: most love beloved players in franchise history in the area.

229
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: But he's not quite wired like the alite like we've

230
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: come up with Kobe and Lebron and Shaq and all

231
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: these guys that want to go and win and win

232
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: and win, and Steph Curry and give me another title,

233
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 1: and give me another title. He's just not that guy.

234
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: And I think now that we see him decide very quickly, Hey,

235
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 1: I'm okay going back home and to fight it win,

236
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: I'll win. That's kind of the guy he has been

237
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 1: throughout his career. Wasn't so much loyal to a frand

238
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: I found a place I like to play, and I

239
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: like playing here, and that's enough for me. And that's

240
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: kind of Damian Lillard. That's who he's always been. But

241
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: it took to get to this point where he goes

242
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: back home for us to really see it that three peas.

243
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 5: You might always have that moment of clarity along the

244
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 5: way too, you know, to everything turn turn turn. I'm

245
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 5: gonna quote the birds all night now, but we we

246
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 5: or the Bible. I guess they took that from But

247
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 5: you look at the situation, right, he goes home where

248
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 5: his kids are, so you know that was swirling in

249
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 5: the background of a lot of this when he requested

250
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 5: the trade in twenty three. I think it was only

251
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 5: the heat that really came out and all the reporting

252
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 5: as a preferred destination goes to Milwaukee. How much you

253
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 5: know this? Now you can have the side conversation of

254
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 5: how much of this is Gianni's telling him, Yeah, I'm

255
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 5: gonna be here when you get back. So so you

256
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 5: had that going out. You know, maybe that's swirling yeah

257
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 5: over here two. But you know, in all walks of life,

258
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 5: you come into a situation bright eyed bushytwn. I got

259
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 5: a lot of people at work in education. I'm gonna be,

260
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 5: you know, a creator of young minds. I'm gonna do this,

261
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 5: and then ten years later it's like, boy, I'm in

262
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 5: for ten so I got to stay for the extra

263
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 5: you know, fifteen or whatever it is, until I'm fully

264
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 5: vested an age and whatever else to you know, you

265
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 5: come into those continuums, whatever it is you do for

266
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 5: your job. We talked about this a lot last night.

267
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 5: You can find the podcast about the Scottie Scheffler stuff,

268
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 5: et cetera. For Dame Lillard. You might have had that

269
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 5: guy that burned with desire back when he was drafted

270
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 5: in twenty twelve. You have a couple of big runs CJ. McCollum,

271
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 5: They've had a pretty good squad, and then things change.

272
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 5: You have a major injury where you're not gonna be

273
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,119
Speaker 5: able to play for a year puts things in perspective

274
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 5: that you know you're on the back nine, as it

275
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 5: will to continue the golf analogy, and you've only got

276
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 5: a couple of years left. You're in the Western Conference,

277
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 5: not expecting to win anything. The fourteen million dollars seemed

278
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 5: like if you really wanted to go home, you might

279
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 5: have taken a little less and given them some more flexibility.

280
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 5: You know, six yards still getting one hundred million from Milwaukee,

281
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 5: but you ended up you get your closure. And it

282
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 5: might have been loving it and wanting to fight for

283
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 5: wins for a long long time, but at some point

284
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 5: you have that that moment where things change and you recognize, hey,

285
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 5: I still love the job, I still love the paycheck,

286
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 5: I still love the locker room, whatever else, but winning

287
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 5: maybe pushes away. We've talked with guys a long time,

288
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 5: right at a lot of football players, Hey, I happened

289
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 5: to be six seven, what are you gonna do? And

290
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 5: that's what telet basketball players. I was good and I

291
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 5: kept going. I mean, you know, you make fun of

292
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 5: my guys. You know, Evan Ashmeyer and other ays from

293
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 5: North Northwestern as they played through a couple of those

294
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 5: guys went and played made pretty good money in Europe.

295
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 5: Did they make NBA money, No, but they were taken

296
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 5: care of pretty well. Were they really good players?

297
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 4: Yeah? In college they were.

298
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 5: Not great, But there's a market for it, and you

299
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 5: play as long as you can. Right, rip the jersey

300
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 5: off my back. And for Dame Lillard, he gets to

301
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 5: go home, you know, I mean, look, your girl Jennifer

302
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 5: Nettle sang about that with bon Jovi in his hair.

303
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, he said, well, well, yeah, of course, one of

304
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: the best duets ever who says you can't go home.

305
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 5: See now I got you. You're gonna be off track

306
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,560

Speaker 1: k D Brunson. And that's okay, right, It's okay that

313
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: because it's not like I've seen him come out and

314
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: he doesn't look like he wants to win, right, Like

315
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: I could say that for someone like lamar Odom, who you.

316
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 4: Know, his goal was to get to the NBA.

317
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: And look, he was a guy who was in every

318
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: other game guy and lots of games he you know,

319
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 1: he didn't try to get into the game like I

320
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: felt like he was just there to play.

321
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:54,439
Speaker 4: Damian Lillard plays hard.

322
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: It's just he didn't burn to win like the fans

323
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 1: wanted him to, like we wanted Lillard to win, Like

324
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,959
Speaker 1: I feel like we wanted Lillard to win more than

325
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: he wanted. That didn't burn for It's like, go somewhere

326
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: and go win a title.

327
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 4: Man, it'll be awesome.

328
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: And Lillard was like, yeah, I'm gonna play hard and

329
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: try my best. But if I don't, it's okay. I'm happy.

330
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: I'm happy with what's going on. And and and you know,

331
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: we we we mix We get that mixed up sometimes

332
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: because hey, we always think, well, guys want to win

333
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: as much as we want them to win. And look,

334
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: certain sports, look football, everybody wants to win, right you

335
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: the stuff they put their bodies through, they want to

336
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: win every single time they set foot on the field. Right,

337
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: there's there's not that out there, but there's others because

338
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: of what you put your body through.

339
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 4: But other sports there are stars and that's okay.

340
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: And and if your efforts never in question, if you're

341
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: you're you know, you don't put everything on the floor,

342
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: uh everything, leave everything out there, Okay, then I can

343
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: look at you and go all right, I don't know

344
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: that you you really deserve this money, deserve this credit.

345
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: But you see Lillard play, you know how you know

346
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: how much he tries to when every time he gets

347
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: on the floor, it's just, hey, I'm not gonna sit

348
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: here and try to recruit guys to come, and I'm

349
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: not going to try to worry about circumventing the salary

350
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: cap to sign here and go here and play for

351
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: a title like.

352
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 4: He's not made to win.

353
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: He's not made and judged by how many finals he

354
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: gets to like Lebron does. And you know, and that's okay,

355
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: it's okay. For it's just weird for us to see

356
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: this because we we want to think that, hey, all

357
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: the stars we watch they want to win just as

358
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: much as we do.

359
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 4: And that's just not the case now.

360
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 5: But as you let it led, the analysis was the

361
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 5: the idea of he was allegedly gonna take a bunch

362
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 5: of time, take some time to heal. See I did

363
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 5: all ties together, uh and and then make a decision.

364
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 5: Other teams potentially interested. But that's a year like he's

365
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 5: not in the plans now, right, He's okay, you can

366
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 5: come and use the facilities, we'll get you a key

367
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 5: card and you can go hang out with the trainers.

368
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 5: So we'll have to put you in their schedule beyond that,

369
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 5: you're not banking on them for this year at all.

370
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 5: So if you're your roster building with the idea that

371
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 5: you're trying to win, well, he's not a fit. Nor

372
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 5: are you gonna commit that kind of money to it

373
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 5: for a guy that's not gonna play. Where does that

374
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 5: make sense? Portland feel good story. Maybe some folks still

375
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 5: have the Damian Lillard cards that they didn't burn in

376
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 5: the barbecue pit this offseason, and you just get to

377
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 5: dust that out because your guy came.

378
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:21,160

00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: at Damian Lillard after this big, I mean this big

382
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,360

421
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 7: They're into the semifinalist of the European Shampu.

422
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 2: Shit glory delight for them.

423
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 4: They had to come from two goos down. They did

424
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 4: it the hard way, but Hardrea like for Sweden. But

425
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 4: that I know it's growing strong.

426
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 1: I know you're listening to the call, but you were

427
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: just slinging along to Sweet Caroline in the background.

428
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 4: That's how it goes. That's how you know.

429
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 5: He showed up here last week. He's a Neil Diamond

430
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 5: musical going. He showed up and then they sang along

431
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 5: Sweet Caroline with Wow, who knew?

432
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 4: Like you know, forty years after Sweet Caroline.

433
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's this little diddy that I wrote back in

434
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 1: the mid seventies. All of a sudden, they play it

435
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: in Red Sox games, It's on TVs and movies. Teams

436
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: have co opted it. I never have to work again.

437
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: I just get the royalty from Sweet Caroline.

438
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 5: It's brilliant. Keeps on rolling in the machine, rolls on.

439
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 5: But this game Sweden England was an amazing afternoon watch

440
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 5: to nil. Sweden league evaporates. And then you have Jennifer Falk,

441
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 5: the Swedish goalie saves four penalty Geck saves four. Not hey,

442
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 5: they missed it over the crossbark like Sweden did. As

443
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 5: you heard there a couple of times, including Fulk herself,

444
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 5: with a chance to win the game, says four.

445
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: Here's a big deal about this is four players from

446
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: each team missed. Yeah, well you've never seen that. Usually

447
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 1: if there's two misses, that's a lot in the pendal.

448
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,680
Speaker 1: I thought, that's a horrible penalty for a team. The

449
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 1: first four players on each team missed, It's like, what

450
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: is happening here?

451
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 4: We had four misses? Seriously four?

452
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,719
Speaker 1: And then Lucy Browns is the one who scores for England,

453
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 1: and how Berman would say this, how Burn would call this.

454
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this all day and DJ Lucy

455
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: Bronze with the game winner, moving England onto the semi

456
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: finals where they hope to not finish third. DJ I

457
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: had to it writes itself, doesn't it writes, it writes itself.

458
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 1: Bronze helping them to not finish third.

459
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 5: Now it's really really good. Uh fight uh in this

460
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 5: match all the way through, and then the penalty gigs

461
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 5: were insane, man, I mean, you go zero for eight

462
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 5: the first think about that in Vegas. I'm gonna bet

463
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 5: miss penalty and I'm rolling over and I'm doubling it

464
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 5: every single one.

465
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: Double a miss here, miss here, miss here, miss I'll

466
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,159
Speaker 1: own the win at the end of this penalty thing.

467
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: I gotta know when to stop, though. I got what it' stopped.

468
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 5: But the Swedish goalie saved four. That's one thing to

469
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 5: hit the post, sail it whatever, like for saves, like yeah,

470
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 5: you're dominating.

471
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, I mean it's incredible, incredible.

472
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 1: I mean I mean when I say yeah, I mean

473
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: when I say four, I mean four unsuccessful penalties converted.

474
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's just I mean that that you

475
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: never see. You may never see that again. The fort

476
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, out out of first four on each team.

477
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 1: I really you may never see that again.

478
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 5: First time in the history of the Women's Euros that

479
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 5: a team came back from two goals down in a

480
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 5: knockout match to win.

481
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 4: Man, I'll tell you. Uh so, congratulations England is the

482
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 4: play of the day. Uh So.

483
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, in the NFL today, DJ Watt and the Steelers

484
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: agreed to a three year, one hundred and twenty three

485
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: million dollar extension. Right now, this is a story that

486
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 1: we knew was going to have some sort.

487
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 4: Of head to head solution because.

488
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: Wad had, you know, put a couple of cryptic things

489
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 1: up on social media.

490
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 4: He wanted a new contract.

491
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: Like this is a guy who's been one of the

492
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 1: top two or three defensive players in the game over

493
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: the course of the past, you know, six or seven years,

494
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 1: coming off a really good year last year at the

495
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,479
Speaker 1: age of thirty, eleven and a half sacks, right, I mean,

496
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: he's still one of the pre eminent defensive players in

497
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: the game and he's still playing at a high level. Right, So, okay,

498
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: and I understand that you're paying TJ. Watt because you're

499
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: paying him for the player he is and has been,

500
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,719
Speaker 1: and not the guy he's going to be. Right, we

501
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: still see the players like TJ. Watt, Miles Garrett. You know,

502
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: you get to the age of thirty, thirty one, thirty two, Hey,

503
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 1: you can still be dominant, but eventually, you know that

504
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: runs out you get into your mid thirties and into

505
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: your early thirties. So yeah, I think the Steelers know that, Okay,

506
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 1: we'll get a good year from him this year, maybe

507
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: we get one more. Maybe you know, he's been healthy

508
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: for the most part his entire career, so okay, but

509
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: this is a contract that was for what he's done

510
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 1: and what he's going to do maybe this year, right,

511
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:44,199
Speaker 1: which I get. But it's but in the end, and

512
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: you know there's a butt coming here. But this just

513
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: shows you that the Steelers, I don't know that they

514
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,640
Speaker 1: are really in tune with what it is to succeed

515
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: in the NFL in twenty twenty five. I really don't

516
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: look at this decision that name. Okay, here's TJ. Watt,

517
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 1: we want him to retire a Steeler That was their

518
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 1: whole big thing wanted to retire a Steeler. You know what,

519
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 1: first of all that era in sports, that's helen gone. Man,

520
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: you are holding onto something that is thirty years old.

521
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 4: Oh we want him to have it. You know what happens.

522
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 1: You don't pay a guy that's thirty thirty one years

523
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 1: old one hundred and twenty million dollars where, boy, it's

524
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: really gonna suck at a year and a half, this

525
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: contract gonna really suck for us.

526
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 4: You don't do that.

527
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 1: You let the guy go to another team, let somebody

528
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: else pay him, and in the end he comes back.

529
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: You retire his number. He retires a Steeler because he's

530
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: always been a Steeler. He plays the majority's grist. That's

531
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: kind of how it goes. But the Steelers are stuck

532
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: with such an antiquated way of doing things like this

533
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: is something that really matters, and I'm scratching my head, going,

534
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: how do they think this is?

535
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 4: This is? This is gonna go? Right?

536
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: You decided then, yeah, TJ. Watt terrific defensive players. Still

537
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: we've seen the best of him, though can't argue that

538
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 1: we've seen the best of him as he's thirty one

539
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: years old. They decided it was more important to them

540
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 1: to give TJ. Watt a three year contract at thirty

541
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 1: one instead of going in for the last couple of

542
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: years and going to get a quarterback and paying him

543
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: to come in because it's the most important bleeping position

544
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 1: on the field.

545
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 4: They've decided it's a hey, we want to pay a.

546
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 1: Defensive lineman all kinds of money who's passed the age

547
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 1: of thirty. But hey, quarterback, we want to shop in

548
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: the bargain bin and try to make it work with

549
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson all maybe justin fields because the Bears kicked

550
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 1: them and oh now Aaron Rodgers doesn't have a place

551
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: to go, We're gonna go no, no, forget about hey

552
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: moving up, making a bold move in the draft to

553
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 1: go get your quarterback of the future, getting into free agency,

554
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 1: making a trade to go win now. Like the Steelers,

555
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: it's such an antiquated way of doing that. It's almost

556
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: like they're the Lakers of the NFL, in which the

557
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 1: Lakers run as a mom and pop store for so long. Hey,

558
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 1: this is how things used to be. And look, I

559
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: was sad when when the Lakers got sold because I

560
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: liked it. They that was kind of what they were

561
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: but I also understand that's not a way that's feasible

562
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 1: to run a team in twenty twenty five. So yeah,

563
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 1: when the Lakers got sold, Okay, first thing you said

564
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: was maybe now it's gonna be better. Maybe now they're

565
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: gonna be run like a like a professional NBA twenty

566
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: twenty five franchise.

567
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 4: I look at the Steelers say the same thing.

568
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 1: You guys know what it is to run a team, right,

569
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: You guys know that you can't keep going cheap at

570
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: quarterback like it's nineteen eighty five and you're gonna sit

571
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 1: around and say, hey, we can win with a We

572
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: can win with Neil O'Donnell. Okay, look I watch video

573
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: and Neil o'donnald getting the Steelers to the super Bowl.

574
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 4: We can No, you can't do it that way.

575
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: You don't win unless you have a you have a

576
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 1: great quarterback. And the Steelers are one of those teams

577
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: where the standards are a little bit higher. It's not

578
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: just about hey we're staying competitive, we're winning. The Steelers

579
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: have different standards. And I watch this antiquated way they're

580
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: running things, and I just go, someone's gotta have some

581
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: kind of intervention and tell the Steelers, Hey, you don't

582
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: think it's really weird. You don't think that's that that's

583
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: the That's not the right thing to do to say,

584
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 1: here's a pass rusher over the age of thirty, here's

585
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty million dollars, and we're gonna sign

586
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 1: quarterbacks for absolutely next to nothing.

587
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 4: Really, what world does that make sense?

588
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 5: Eight million of it guaranteed three year extension back to

589
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 5: back years. He did participate in all seventeen games, nineteen

590
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 5: and a half sacks two years ago, eleven and a

591
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,479
Speaker 5: half this past year. You've got a roster that Omar

592
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 5: Khan he got his three year extension that was announced

593
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 5: a couple of weeks ago. So you've got your bases

594
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 5: in your quarterback position certainly is not pushed aside at all, right,

595
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 5: because I've got my whole tap system, the Harmon tap system.

596
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 5: I need a thrower, I need an attacker, and I

597
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 5: need a protector. You can give me whatever else you

598
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,120
Speaker 5: need out of that. But if I got those three things,

599
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 5: I'm feeling pretty good. It's like my Big Three. See

600
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 5: what I did. I brought it back after the NBA

601
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,719
Speaker 5: killed it. But it's the moving forward. You decided you

602
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 5: saw enough on tape with his resume, his history, the

603
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 5: first thing being, hey, we want him to retire here.

604
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 5: Probably not the best, but that's who they are, right

605
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 5: and it's the family biz. So they're gonna they're gonna

606
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,919
Speaker 5: acknowledge that at every turn. They did with all of

607
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 5: the veterans in the past, and even in changes in

608
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 5: the front office, the Rooney family remains at the top,

609
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 5: so only so much change. We do this with all

610
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 5: the owners and every sport Jason that are that are

611
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 5: still their long term that it's it's hard to what

612
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,640
Speaker 5: the proverbial teach an old dog new tricks kind of thing.

613
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:20,880
Speaker 4: Right.

614
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,919
Speaker 5: We do it with Jerry Jones. We do it in

615
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 5: baseball with my beloved White Sox Bulls and all those franchises.

616
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 5: Maybe they're finally turning the page with the Bears. But

617
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 5: all of that to say, they decided this is where

618
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 5: they're going to commit money, which means they're going to

619
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 5: be just good enough to be on the periphery of

620
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 5: the playoffs, maybe get in and then eventually lose fairly

621
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 5: quickly thereafter. You and I don't know what it's like

622
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 5: to have a franchise that wins fairly consistently. We just don't.

623
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,679
Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, right. The FoST thing I have

624
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 5: is the Mets because.

625
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 1: We were in the NLCS last year and we're in

626
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:57,439
Speaker 1: a wildcard spot this year.

627
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, you were in a World Series a decade ago.

628
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 4: It's not a big sample size man.

629
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 5: Year anniversary of a World Series that ESPN refuses to acknowledge. Okay,

630
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 5: So all of that to say, I don't know how

631
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,439
Speaker 5: I would like as a Steeler fan. You're excited. TJ.

632
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 5: Watts stays right. It doesn't ultimately get to the tradeing

633
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 5: for pennies on the dollar and all of those things,

634
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 5: But it's just that curiosity of how do you really

635
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 5: feel about it?

636
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 1: Are you okay with being just good enough versus going

637
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: towards greatness?

638
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 5: It goes back to what we were talking about with

639
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 5: Damian Lillard, the rich tapestry we weave. Is it good

640
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 5: enough to just, hey, the check keeps going, I got

641
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 5: a thing to go show my wares, I get to

642
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 5: punch in, I punch out, and we go back to

643
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 5: our lives. Or do you actually want something a little more?

644
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 5: That's the question, and not having won twenty straight years,

645
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 5: I have no idea how the hell that's supposed to feel.

646
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 5: I haven't done that since a couple of years with

647
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 5: the Blackhawks and then the Bulls, all the way back

648
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 5: to ninety seven, ninety eight, ten years before cold Play

649
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 5: was like wow.

650
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: And now cold Play catching straight. Yeah, Mike Harmon, Coldplay

651
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: got me. I mean, look, in no world does what

652
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: the Steelers do make sense. I mean, just think about

653
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: this for a second. What do we need need a quarterbacks?

654
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: What are we gonna do.

655
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 4: We're gonna try to get one as cheap as possible.

656
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 4: I mean really, I mean we were.

657
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: They were lucky enough to have to be sold on

658
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger for nearly two decades, and they won with him,

659
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: and they won the Super Bowls. Yeah, they won two.

660
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: What a great time. And now that's yeah, no, we

661
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: don't want that anymore. Like, whether it's the team feels

662
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: we can win with the quarterback being a necessary evil,

663
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: you can't. It's the NFL in twenty twenty five, or

664
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: however they arrive at these decisions.

665
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 4: None of none of this makes sense.

666
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: Not not even the Jets on their worst day would say, hey,

667
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: we don't need a quarterback. They just always go for

668
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 1: the wrong ones. The Jets know they need a quarterback.

669
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: They just can't pick it right no matter what, which

670
00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: makes it. You know, it doesn't matter.

671
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 5: The little nervous this year, aren't you.

672
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 4: They canna go back and get Tom Brady in.

673
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: His prime and they would probably screw it up. Ago

674
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 1: Brady just can't start stop throwing interceptions. All he does,

675
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: throw it deep, throw it deep like that. At least

676
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: the Jets know, hey, we gotta go. Even the Lions

677
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: that couldn't get things done for lot, what, we gotta

678
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 1: go get a quarterback. Oh, they go get a quarterback. Okay,

679
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: it works out. And the Steelers try, Hey, we're just

680
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: gonna try to do this with duct tape and gum

681
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: like they're mcguiver and they're trying to jerry rig something

682
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: together to say, ah, you know I can I can

683
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: blow up this big bomb that's coming in by just

684
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: using a twig and and a sling shot and and

685
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: and a doctor pepper.

686
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 4: How do we do it? Just trust me, Just trust me,

687
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 4: I'll do it.

688
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: Like that's how the Steelers are trying to do it.

689
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: I mean, in no world does this make sense how

690
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: they're doing things cheap at quarterback? But yeah, we want

691
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 1: to give a team legend three years and one hundred

692
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: and twenty three million dollars.

693
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, to be fair, the Lions always had the quarterback,

694
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 5: the running back, and wide receiver. They didn't have a

695
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 5: whole hell of a lot else. There were a couple

696
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 5: of good players that mix there in. I don't want

697
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 5: to denigrate careers if some of those linemen are a

698
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 5: few of those defenders, because they're out there and they

699
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 5: know who they are. But you know, Matthew Stafford was

700
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 5: always everybody's favorite, your favorite quarterbacks, favorite quarterback, and then

701
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 5: he still had to go to Los Angeles to win.

702
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresca exit swollen down The Jason

703
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: Smith Show with Mike Carbon live from the Fox Sports

Speaker 1: Radio studios. Time out to find out what's trending in

705
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: the wide world of sports. But guy who's been called

706
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: the Matthew Stafford of Fox Sports Radio, he spent so

707
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,959
Speaker 1: much time in Detroit before he realized, I gotta get

708
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles.

709
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 3: It's Martin Weiss, and then he immediately started winning championship.

710
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 5: How about that.

711
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 3: Nine time NBA All Star Damian Lillard finalizing a three year,

712
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 3: forty two million dollars contract return a contract to return

713
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 3: to the Portland Trail Blazers after a brief Dalliant in Milwaukee.

714
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 3: The dealers expected to include a player option for twenty

715
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 3: twenty seven and a no trade clause.

716
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 4: More than forty w.

717
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 3: NBA players got the Thursday for in person meeting with

718
00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 3: the Women's national the WNBPA. It was the biggest person

719
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 3: player turnout union history. During CBA talks, they met for

720
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 3: a couple hours and ended with no resolution. Caitlin Clark

721
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 3: will missed a three point contest on All Star Game

722
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 3: in Indianapolis this weekend after sustaining a groin injury versus

723
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 3: Sun on Tuesday. Her statement said that she'll be present

724
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 3: for all the action and I just saw a social

725
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 3: media video of her walking up to I forget where

726
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 3: Courtney Williams plays now, but Courtney Williams this head. I

727
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 3: spent three hours watching your live stream as the WNBA

728
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 3: is doing their Opening Nights type of thing for their

729
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 3: All Stars.

730
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 5: So she's locked in. She's locked in. Will not be participating.

731
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 3: Speaking of locked in, TJ Watt three years, one hundred

732
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 3: and twenty three million dollar extension that makes him the

733
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 3: highest paid non quarterback in NFA history, not for the

734
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 3: first time, but for the second time in his career

735
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 3: one hundred and eight fully guaranteed at signing forty one

736
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 3: million per year average. First baseman Rowdy Tules took part

737
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 3: in the work out with the Texas Rangers Thursday, with

738
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 3: the expectation he'll join the team after the All Star

739
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 3: break ends tomorrow. Colch quarterback Anthony Richardson used to have

740
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 3: recovered from his recent right shoulder setback as a team

741
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 3: prepares to report for training camp next week, and the

742
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 3: only first round pick who's not signed rookie Cincinnati Bengal

743
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 3: or might be I guess in Cincinnati bagles on his

744
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 3: draft rights. Then they're not paying him yet. Shamar Stewart

745
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 3: Texas and M Mike Elko. This is where we're at

746
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 3: with the hit the tech coach of Texas. A and

747
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 3: M squashed any speculation that Shamar Stewart may be potentially

748
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 3: seeking a return to college amid the contract dispute. So

749
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 3: things went well in Cincinnati, got.

750
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 5: Transition and they still got to pay that guy.

751
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 4: Joe, you know what are we doing?

752
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 5: He's really heading flowers to TJ. Watt.

753
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 4: Here's the thing, you know what I mean?

754
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 1: Like I had a really rough first year out of college,

755
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: like out of out of Syria, like your early twenties

756
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: is a tough age. But I had a really rough

757
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 1: first year. I never thought about, Hey, I could go

758
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: back to colle I could if they let me, I.

759
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 4: Would go back. I'd be like, no, I'm too old

760
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 4: now I'm twenty two. I can't go back there. You

761
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 4: go go back to college till my friends are going. No,

762
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 4: I can't do that.

763
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 5: You may always make new friends, nad run the collegeine

764
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 5: as you walked around campus. No, I'd feel like the

765
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 5: old guy, like this guy graduated, okay, keep by beer

766
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 5: for us'd be a friend of something. I feel like

767
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,399
Speaker 5: I'm just like I'm hanging out with a like i'd

768
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:12,399
Speaker 5: be babysitting kids.

769
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, I'm the same age as a lot of the

770
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: I couldn't go back to college and they said, yeah.

771
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 4: Go do it, Like no, I did you do it?

772
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 4: And you're done and it's hard. It's hard to go back.

773
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 5: You'd go back and do it now, though, Uh, you.

774
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: Know, I always thought, honestly, if I could come up

775
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 1: with something where you know, they do you know, fantasy

776

779
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,719

00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 1: You'd live in a dorm and you know, with roommates everything,

783
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: and you would go to classes. You go do the

784
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: classes that you want to go to, like you talk

785
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: about history or English. You know'd be like book club

786
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,520

787
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,840

Speaker 1: This song come on and she goes ah and all

825
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,840
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's jammed up and she's gone so vacation.

826
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: This is my laugh one. She's banging the steering reel.

827
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm in the car right next to you.

828
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, let's go all right, we'll go with list of.

829
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 5: This song at a lot of anger that needs to

830
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 5: get out somewhere.

831
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 4: No, just exciting.

832
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 5: Is it something that you generate? I mean, is it

833
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 5: your fault?

834
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 4: No? No, it I'm just saying when this song comes

835
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 4: on all of a sudden, yeah, becomes a different person.

836
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 4: It's like, oh Wowpa, roach last resort.

837
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 5: But you got to figure out what's prompting that.

838
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,760
Speaker 4: I think it's just a good song.

839
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any anything the Faerius to it,

840
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,600

Speaker 5: It's really deep. I mean, but you have to wait

847
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,480
Speaker 5: until it really kicks in at the three minute mark

848
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,479
Speaker 5: or you'll really miss the thrust of the song.

849
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: Help me gaslight my father, Let me kill them in

850
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,879

Speaker 1: but a decision.

862
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 5: But if it's proven what you did to me, you

863
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 5: get nothing. So decision. Keep watching those true crime podcast

864
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 5: podcast video segments and such.

865
00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 1: So big wide receiver news in the NFL to number one,

866
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 1: the Jets killed Mike Williams. Apparently they killed Carl and

867
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: now they killed Mike Williams, the wide receiver who the

868
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:12,320
Speaker 1: Jets signed for one disastrous year and his big headline

869
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,439
Speaker 1: last year was running the wrong route during a game

870
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: and Aaron Rodgers calling him out for it, saying it's

871
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: a red line route. You gotta run the red line.

872
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 1: Mike Williams didn't run the red line. The Jets let

873
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,760
Speaker 1: him go at thirty years old. Mike Williams was always

874
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 1: someone who teased us with his talent, really put it

875
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: together one year in the NFL, but outside of that

876
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: he was boy. You kind of hoped at some point

877
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 1: he would be better than it was. It never was,

878
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: and he retires at the age of thirty. He'll always

879
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: have the red line. Mike Williams.

880
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 5: It's difficult to finish. I really thought he was gonna

881
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 5: come back and give you some juice for those eight

882
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 5: games or whatever.

883
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: You would, yeah, catch thirty passes and be another Yeah, well,

884
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 1: I'll tell you. If he's healthy, boy, watch out.

885
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 5: But that's just it. Good downfield threat when healthy would

886
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 5: have the big game out of the blue. For fantasy purposes,

887
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 5: you can ever count on him. You try to pencil

888
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 5: as your w R three.

889
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:07,359
Speaker 4: You were you were throwing a dart if you were right.

890
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,240
Speaker 5: But when it hit, boy, it was the thing of beauty.

891
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 5: I mean, because the guy made some spectacular catches over

892
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:13,720
Speaker 5: the course of his career.

893
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 4: But what did it hit?

894
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 1: Like two out of every ten times you put James

895
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 1: in your lineup? Come on, yeah, no, that's it.

896
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 5: Done. You ride the lightning man, Come on, you know

897
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 5: how that works. And now it's another former Mike Williams. Yeah,

898
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 5: because remember Mike Williams, the guy that got screwed when

899
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 5: he was trying to go into the league early, got

900
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 5: some bad legal advice, then bunked up, became a tight

901
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 5: end for a bit with the Lions. Still got top

902
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:43,800
Speaker 5: ten money. But yeah, now outside.

903
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 4: Outside of Mike Williams.

904
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: With more AFC West news, Rashi Rice of the Chiefs

905
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:51,760
Speaker 1: is sentenced to thirty days of jail time for and probation.

906
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 4: For his role in multi car crash last year.

907
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: You have to think he's going to get a six

908
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,320
Speaker 1: game suspension that it seems pretty boiler played at this point.

909
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: I mean, may maybe you can, you can appeal and

910
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: again we have NFL p a big news coming up

911
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: next hour, but maybe you can appeal and get it

912
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: reduced little. But I gotta think it's gonna be six

913
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: games for him out of the gate when.

914
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 5: They go large, larger and let him appeal and and

915
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 5: go through that process to where at minimum he's got six.

916
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: So uh yeah, there's a reason why suddenly the NFL

917
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: doing things may be a little bit more difficult. We

918
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,280
Speaker 1: have that big story coming up next Right here, Jason

919
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:27,240
Speaker 1: and Mike Fox
