I become the first person ever 20 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 2: in the history of radio to have hosted on consecutive 21 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 2: days two different members of the twenty twelve Arizona Cardinals. 22 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 3: It has never been done before. 23 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: And I but here's the best part, Richon, So I 24 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 2: mentioned this to Carry yesterday and I said, so did you. 25 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Rich is an offensive lineman. You're 26 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 2: a defensive back. Did you have much interaction with Rich? 27 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 2: And he says, oh, yeah, you know Rich was like 28 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: this really serious minded guy, and uh yeah yeah. And 29 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: I'm like, so, in other words, you did not know him. 30 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 2: I mean, no one has ever accused you, you're in 31 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 2: your football career or any time in your life, of 32 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: being a serious minded individual. Smart guy, funny guy, but 33 00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 2: somehow serious minded. 34 00:01:59,280 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 3: It did not end. 35 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: It was clear that Carrie had not had much of 36 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: an exchange with you in your one year together in Arizona. 37 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 3: Is that accurate? 38 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 4: Well, bus rides and plane rides and you know, lunch 39 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 4: table conversations like I got an opportunity to talk to 40 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 4: Carry a good amount. But if there is two position 41 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 4: groups that see the least of each other on a 42 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 4: football field in terms of actual gameplay and also like 43 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 4: their world's apart from each other, it is defensive backfield 44 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 4: and offensive line. You couldn't asked. You couldn't asked a 45 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 4: group basically to do anything more opposite of what those 46 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 4: two groups do. Offensive line have to be gigantic. Defensive 47 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 4: backs typically tall, good long shore but need to be skinny. 48 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 4: Offensive linemen need to like be you know, strong and 49 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 4: in their lower body. Like defensive backs need to be 50 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 4: graceful with great hips that can open up when receivers 51 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 4: go into their breaks. Like, there are so many things, 52 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 4: And I mean, like, I guess you could say it's 53 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 4: all one sport. You're all in one team, but there's 54 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 4: fifty three players, yes, and that that for sure. Like 55 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 4: I could tell you there would be certain cornerbacks. I know, 56 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 4: Carrie obviously carried me, like I told you. We had 57 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 4: we had conversations and he's a good dude. But there 58 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 4: are corners and there are safeties who during the course 59 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 4: of my career, if they came up to me in person, 60 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 4: saw them face to face and said hello to me, 61 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 4: I would assume it's the first time I'm meeting them. 62 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 2: Well, he was like dead serious, like oh yeah, yeah, 63 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: you know, Rich, he's a real serious minded guy. 64 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 3: And i' mike. In other words, you really have no 65 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: recall because no one has ever accused you of that. 66 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 2: All right, we got a lot going on. Are you 67 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: watching this tennis right now here? Rich Djokovic won the 68 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: first set easily, Alkaz of Corus, who won the US Open. 69 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 3: He's the new star. 70 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: He's only twenty years of age, the number one ranked 71 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 2: player in the world. Djokovic eliminated him in the semis 72 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: at the French Olbu. You remember he had that weird 73 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 2: Alcarez like had the whole body. 74 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 3: Sezed up on him. 75 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, in the third and fourth set, he talked about 76 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 2: nerves and everything else after two great sets, and Djokovic 77 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: won that match. But right now Djokovic is trying to 78 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 2: force force a fifth and deciding set in. 79 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 3: This Wimbledon final. So some good tennis going out right now. 80 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, there's really no weakness in al Karez's game, 81 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 4: and if he can get over some of these mental 82 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 4: hurdles that every performer, every athlete needs to get over, 83 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 4: like the the idea of when everybody's watching, when your 84 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 4: whole sport is watching, when it's just you performing, can 85 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,799 Speaker 4: you do it? And that's the gene that the greatest 86 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 4: of greats have, you know, the Djokovic's and the the 87 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,799 Speaker 4: Lebron james Is and the Michael Jordan's and the Tom 88 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 4: Brady's and the Rafael and Nadals like you know, go 89 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 4: through the list. I mean Serena Williams. They have that 90 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 4: gene because when all eyes are on them, it appears 91 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 4: as if they perform even better. And so we'll see 92 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 4: if he's got that sort of moxie. But this dude, 93 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 4: I mean some of the drop shots, I mean, he's incredible. 94 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 3: He did a shot Djokovic had an overhead slam, which 95 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 3: usually puts away a point. 96 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 2: Not only Alcarez get this shot. He had a cross 97 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 2: court shot winner off an overhead slam by Djokovic, and 98 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: even Djokovic look back like you gotta beginning me. So 99 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: you know, this is a sport that's been dominated obviously 100 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 2: by Vederan, Nadal and Djokovic for so many years. He 101 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 2: had a little Andy Murray in there, stand by guy. 102 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: He won a couple of Grand Slams. But three guys 103 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: have so dominated this sport. They've been desperate for a 104 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: new star, and Alkorez is certainly that the number one 105 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 2: ranked player. So they have now started the fifth set, 106 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 2: first serve of the fifth sets. So we'll keep you 107 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: updated on what's going on at Wimbledon. Also, Rich, I 108 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: gotta share a story here. So we got that celebrity 109 00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: golf tournament up in Lake Tahoe. 110 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 3: What's going on? Did you see the hole in one 111 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 3: that Steph Curry had? 112 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 4: I did. That was And it's so fun watching Steph 113 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 4: Curry play golf because Steph Curry would be a tall golfer. 114 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 4: He might not even be the tallest golfer. But Steph 115 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 4: Curry makes more sense to my eyes on a golf 116 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 4: course than he does on a basketball court. Like when 117 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 4: I see Steph Curry golf, I go, oh, yeah, that fits, 118 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,119 Speaker 4: Like that makes sense. Like when Steph Curry steps foot 119 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 4: six foot three, six foot four onto a basketball court, 120 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 4: You're like, that's one of the best players in the game. 121 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 4: It just it almost hurts your eyes. It makes you 122 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 4: scratch your head. But he's completely revolutionized basketball as we 123 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 4: know it with the three point shooting that he's portrayed 124 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 4: his whole career. But now, I mean, look, I have 125 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 4: a novice. I I like golf. I play a lot 126 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 4: of it. You know, probably get out twice a month. 127 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 4: That's a lot for a guy with kids. I try 128 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,559 Speaker 4: to get out as much as I can. I watch 129 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,679 Speaker 4: all the majors. I watch some of the tournaments throughout 130 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 4: the year. There's something about his swing that makes me 131 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 4: think like if he ever decided, and I'm assuming that 132 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 4: day will come soon, to hang up basketball, but then 133 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 4: decided to pick up golf full time, to spend as 134 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 4: much time dedicating himself to that sport as he did basketball, 135 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 4: at least during his playing time. 136 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: You know, like, yeah, well, Tony Romo was this right, 137 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: Tony Romo was a really good golfer. He was obviously 138 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 2: part of this tournament for years, but then he found 139 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: out the idea of playing tournament golf. 140 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 3: Right, It's a different beast. I'm just kidding, if you 141 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 3: can say, I mean, I'm sure he could play well enough, 142 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 3: but when you're standing over that, you know, ten foot 143 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 3: par putt and you've got everyone watching you, Okay, but 144 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 3: hang on, it's not like And the thing about it 145 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 3: is either one is like it, and it's that quiet 146 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 3: like when you're a basketball player any other sport you're 147 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 3: used to all that noise and it's sort of you know, 148 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 3: but when you're in your own head because everyone else 149 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: says sh but. 150 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 4: I will say this, I mean to do it. I'm 151 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 4: not saying, yeah, maybe he could do it, but I'm 152 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 4: not and I'm this is I think Tony Romo was 153 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 4: a great football player. Yeah, I think that Tony Romo 154 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 4: lacked a little bit of what we were just talking about, 155 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 4: that that killer instinct that Brady Lebron, Jordan Federer, Nadal, 156 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 4: you know, Djokovic, that that I'm gonna finish this at 157 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 4: the very highest side. Steph Curry has that. I failed 158 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 4: to mention Steph Curry, but Steph Curry has that. And 159 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 4: so if we're just gonna take the genetic makeup of 160 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 4: Tony Romo and Steph Curry and say, you know, who 161 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 4: would you trust more in the clutch? Just that sentence, 162 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 4: who would you trust more in the clutch? I mean, 163 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 4: if I'm answering that inquisition, that the answer is one 164 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 4: hundred percent Steph Curry. Now, again, that's in his given field, 165 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 4: it's not on a football field, and vice versa. But 166 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 4: if we're gonna even now translate that to the golf course, 167 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 4: I think I'm still taking Steph Curry. And then on 168 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 4: top of it, I have no idea if he's a 169 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 4: better or worse golfer than Tony Romo. But all I'm 170 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 4: suggesting is that when his basketball career ends, it feels 171 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 4: like if he wanted to, if he wanted to, which 172 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 4: he may not want to. He may want to always 173 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 4: look at golf as a hobby, something that he does 174 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 4: because he's passionate about it. But if he wanted to, 175 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 4: I'm curious if he spent as much attention to golf 176 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 4: as he did on basketball during the course of his 177 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 4: pro career, could the outcomes be the same, because that 178 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 4: guy's meticulous in his preparation for games. 179 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 2: There actually is one former NFL player that actually won 180 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 2: a tournament on the Seniors Tour. 181 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 4: What's his name? 182 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 2: His name was John Brody. He was a legendary quarterback 183 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 2: of the forty nine ers in the sixties and into 184 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 2: the seventies. Actually was the NFL's MVP back in nineteen seventy. 185 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 3: But he was a big. 186 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 2: Golfer and when he turned fifty, he joined the Senior 187 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 2: Tour as it was then know now the Champions Tour, 188 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 2: and he actually won a tournament. 189 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: He's the only one. 190 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: He's the only former athlete and ad different sport that 191 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: actually pulled that off to win a tournament. By the way, 192 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 2: sharing a quick story about this American Century tournament. So 193 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: I covered this on an annual basis back in the day, 194 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 2: and there was this. There was only a few radio 195 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 2: stations that were up there all the time. One of 196 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 2: them was I believe it was a sacrament. It was 197 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 2: a Bay Area station, and we would be set up 198 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 2: right near the driving range, you know, trying to pick 199 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: off the celebrities to come over and you know do 200 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: these sit down interviews. Well, this station had a female 201 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 2: producer who was quite attractive, and she would wander over 202 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 2: and lure these celebrities over. We didn't have any competition 203 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 2: for her, okay. So I had a friend of mine 204 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 2: who used to be one of the girls on The 205 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 2: Man Show. 206 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 3: Remember the girls jumping on the trampolines. 207 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 5: They call them the juggies, the juggies, and she was 208 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 5: the star Juggie, and so she was a friend of 209 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 5: mine and I asked her if she would want to 210 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 5: come up to Lake Tahoe. 211 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 2: She did, and she came out in shorts and a 212 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: very tight T shirt. The guy that ran the event 213 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 2: ran over to me and said, there is no way 214 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 2: you're putting her out there. And I'm looking him like, 215 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 2: what are you talking about it. I've seen thousands of 216 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 2: women out here in shorts and T shirts. 217 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 3: He goes, not like that. 218 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 2: So She had a good humor about it, so she 219 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: she dressed. It didn't matter what she this girl wore, 220 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 2: and it was unbelievable. She didn't even have to walk 221 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: to the driving range. The guys are coming to us 222 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 2: to say hi to her, and then oh, by the way, 223 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 2: while you're sitting talking to her, how about sitting down 224 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 2: and doing a quick interview with us. 225 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 4: By the way, it was pure goal.

He'll never say that but we 264 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 3: know that. 265 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: Yes, he is, of course our Fox Sports Radio MLB insider, 266 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 2: the one, the only John Palmer Rose. See do you 267 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 2: remember the first time you heard that song? 268 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 7: JP, Oh, good morning and good afternoon. I would say 269 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 7: I would have been around eight years old. That sounds 270 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 7: about right. That's also the age that my middle daughter is, Elena. 271 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 7: She's a great little ball player in her own right. 272 00:13:55,559 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 7: I'm actually coaching her coach pitch team this summer. It's 273 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 7: been a lot of fun. So I would say perhaps 274 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 7: swayed a bit by Elena's age. I would say I was. 275 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 2: Eight years old, yes, and you were well versed on 276 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 2: Willie Mickey and the Duke at age eight, who wasn't 277 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: at that age? All Right, I'm gonna start with Otani, 278 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: and I'm well, I'll let Rich get into the whole 279 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 2: trade idea, because Rich has made it clear that Otani's 280 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: untradable and I couldn't agree more. But I want to 281 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 2: talk about Otani the pitcher. So he's had this finger problem. 282 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 2: In the month of April, he was four and oh 283 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 2: with a one eighty five ERA. Since then he is 284 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 2: three and five with an ERA of four point three five. 285 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 2: I guess The reason I'm bringing up is is that 286 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 2: we've we talked about this JP about how long can 287 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 2: he continue to do both? But why has he been 288 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: less dominant from a pitching standpoint since the first month 289 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 2: of the season. 290 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 7: Well, it's a very fair question, and certainly it's it's 291 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 7: difficult to speculate on his his health or exactly what's 292 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 7: been going on at different points in time. What we 293 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 7: do know is that he has left now multiple starts 294 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 7: early due to this blister. And when you consider that 295 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 7: he's got this blister going on, it does make you 296 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 7: wonder was he in any way compromised by it before 297 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 7: he actually started leaving starts early as a result of it, 298 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 7: And does that explain that over four era that you 299 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 7: mentioned since the beginning part of May. I do think 300 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 7: that the uncertainty about the origin of that injury and 301 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 7: what it means for his availability, I think that would 302 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 7: certainly cloud the potential of any trade because it makes 303 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 7: it all the more difficult to actually determine what a 304 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 7: fair market value would be for someone who was so 305 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 7: extraordinarily talented, and to your point, might also sway and 306 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 7: influence the way that teams look at him as a 307 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 7: free agent this winter because a massive amount of his 308 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 7: value is wrapped up in his ability to do both, 309 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 7: and there are those who believe in One person actually 310 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 7: said it to me not long ago that perhaps the 311 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 7: idea would be that maybe show is best served in 312 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 7: the long term to be a reliever and a DH Now. 313 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 7: I don't know that to be true, but some in 314 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 7: the industry have said that, And to look at this spring, 315 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 7: his most notable performance as a pitcher was coming out 316 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 7: of the bullpen to close out the World Baseball Classic 317 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 7: gold medal game for Team Japan, and that was as 318 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 7: a reliever. So I do think at a final point as 319 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 7: a center back to you on this exact topic with Show, 320 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 7: a you know he's thrown when you look at it. 321 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 7: Since June the twenty seventh, he's only thrown ten innings, 322 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 7: and then part of that's the All Star break. But 323 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 7: I do think that that speaks to the idea that 324 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 7: maybe his long term value is best out of the pen, 325 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 7: and we may have to change or potentially shape our 326 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 7: expectations of him as a free agent. 327 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,959 Speaker 4: Acordingly JP, you reported on MLB dot Com that you 328 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 4: believe the Angels, based on your conversations, are still very 329 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 4: much so, inquiring what they could receive fro Otani. However, 330 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 4: they mentioned that that the next homestand this homestand that 331 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 4: they're currently playing against the Astros Yankees and then Pittsburgh 332 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 4: comes to town is going to be a deciding factor. 333 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 4: They're one in one right now to start this homestand 334 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 4: they'll play a little Sunday Night baseball tonight. What are 335 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 4: you expecting for the Angels as they finish up the 336 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 4: month of July heading up against the deadline. 337 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,719 Speaker 7: Well, it's a great question, and I think the Angels 338 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 7: right now to your point, a huge comeback win last night. 339 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 7: They really needed that, and they're still as we speak, 340 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 7: under five hundred. They still have a chance in the 341 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 7: wild card picture that they're somewhat helped by the way 342 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 7: in which the Seattle Mariners really struggled. The Mariners lost 343 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 7: their first two games of the second half to the 344 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 7: non contending Detroit Tigers, and I think having this series 345 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 7: coming up, and it's a big game tonight in a 346 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 7: big series against the Yankees for the Angels, if they 347 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 7: can find a way to put together a nice little 348 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 7: run in the next week or so. The Pirates, of 349 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 7: course have struggled that the Yankees are not in their 350 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 7: best form either. If they can find a way to 351 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 7: win this game tonight and then win a series against 352 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 7: the Yankees and win a series against the Pirates, then 353 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 7: I think that trading Otani becomes a little bit more difficult. 354 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 7: But if they fall flat in the coming week, then 355 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 7: maybe it becomes a little easier to imagine the Angels 356 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 7: as sellers. So I do think this next week Guys 357 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 7: is pivotal in the recent history and in the future 358 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 7: of this Los Angeles Angels franchise, because I do think 359 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 7: the way they play in the next ten days will 360 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 7: determine what they do at the deadline, and that could 361 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 7: include an Otani trade. I still think for a lot 362 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 7: of reasons, and I've reported this that it's unlikely, but 363 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 7: it's and they are at least listening. They're trying to 364 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 7: see what the value of Otani would be. And I 365 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 7: think the main element of this now as you look 366 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 7: at the trade deadline is if they do decide to sell, 367 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 7: would they move any of their other pictures not named 368 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 7: Otani or potentially a bat like a hunter Renfro. They've 369 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 7: got good players not named Showy Otani and Mike Trout 370 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 7: that I think could could have some interest on the market, 371 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,360 Speaker 7: so that they've got a lot of decisions to make. 372 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 7: Otani's the biggest one, but he's. 373 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 3: Not the only one, all right, buyers and sellers. 374 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the big talk over the next couple 375 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 2: of weeks in Major League Baseball. The Podras, you know, 376 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 2: two of their starting pitchers, snella Musgrove, have been red hot. 377 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 2: They had won six out of seven, and then they 378 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: lose a doubleheader in Philadelphia. Right now, it's rainy and Philly. 379 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: There's seven and a half games out of the second 380 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: wildcard spot, five games below five hundred. What is going 381 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 2: to go on with this hefty price tagged Podres roster? 382 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 2: Are they gonna dump u like they did back in 383 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 2: twenty fifteen after making a lot of acquisitions in the 384 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 2: off season. Are they going to ride away with his 385 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 2: team hoping that not only Snell and mus Grove, but 386 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 2: you know, perhaps Darvish and other starting pitchers will pick. 387 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 3: Up the slack. 388 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 7: Right, I think that it's a little different than the 389 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 7: twenty fifteen situation, but it's there are some similarities and 390 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 7: what they may decide to do. Steve is is to 391 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 7: move their pending free agents, which would be Snell and 392 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 7: Hater most notably, but then keep one soda and try 393 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 7: to make a run at this for next year. They 394 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 7: are not in a desperate state. I would say that 395 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 7: teams that are that are in a desperate state. 396 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 4: You know. 397 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 7: The Mets, I think are more of that description is 398 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 7: because of where their payroll is at, how old their 399 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 7: team is, and the need to make a move. Whereas 400 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 7: the Padres, they still have I think for the top 401 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 7: one under prospects in the sport according to Emily pipeline 402 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 7: dot com. So they still have some semblans of a 403 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 7: solid farm system. They still have another year of Soto, 404 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 7: they just signed boguards. The collectively, they're not going to 405 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 7: be this bad offensively year after year. So I look 406 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 7: at this team as yes, they've been a disappointment this year, 407 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 7: but their issues are fixable and at least in the 408 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 7: long term. And you look at the National League West 409 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 7: to your point, when you're that far below five hundred 410 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 7: and you've got three quality teams in your own division 411 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 7: ahead of you, I just I'm having a hard time 412 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 7: seeing this team make the playoffs. So I think that 413 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 7: the Padres can make a good baseball trade for Hater 414 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 7: and Snell if it's out there, likely keep Soto for 415 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 7: now and then make one more run at this thing 416 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 7: next season with some adjustments in some ways of really 417 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 7: Steven Rich lengthening out the lineup. I think to me 418 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 7: that the big question is how how much they've struggled 419 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 7: to have a solid back half of the lineup. But 420 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 7: I think that has to change now going forward. 421 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 4: When we look around MLB, is there a team or 422 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 4: teams that you think have to make a lot of moves? 423 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 4: But also the windows closing? So this is the last 424 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 4: chance during their winning window. 425 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 7: Well, I don't know if it's the last chance, but 426 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 7: it's one of the last chances for the Toronto Blue Jays. 427 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 7: They've got a good ball club and I look at 428 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 7: the way they're constructed. They are heavily reliant on Vladimir 429 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 7: Guerrero Junior. Of course, as you know, the home run 430 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 7: derby Champ and Boba Schett. They need those two to 431 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 7: be the pillars of this organization as they go towards 432 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 7: a playoff run they hope lands them back in the 433 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 7: World Series for the first time since nineteen ninety three, 434 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 7: thirty years ago, And of course they also have on 435 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 7: this roster Matt Chapman, who is a pending free agent. 436 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 7: He's not Otani, but he is one of the better 437 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 7: free agents this winter. So they are going to lose 438 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 7: or at least could lose some key members of the organization. 439 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,239 Speaker 7: So I think they really have to go all in 440 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 7: right now at a little bit more offense. I would 441 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 7: believe maybe they add one more reliever or two, but 442 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 7: this is the Toronto team that's quite close. And the 443 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 7: longer that the New York Yankees struggle leads me to 444 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 7: believe that maybe the Jays have a bit more of 445 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 7: an opportunity than we originally thought. And I think two 446 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 7: that this is almost diametrically the opposite of the question 447 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 7: that you asked. But I look at a team like 448 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 7: the Baltimore Orioles. They're just starting their window. This is 449 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 7: by no means a World Series or bust kind of 450 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 7: a year. And yet look around the landscape of the 451 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 7: American League when you are an up and coming team 452 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 7: and you see teams like the Red Sox and Yankees 453 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 7: at the bottom of your division. To me, I say, ooh, 454 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 7: there's opportunity here. There's opportunity here because the Yankees and 455 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 7: Red Sox are very rarely struggling. I put that in 456 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 7: the air quotes because they're still not even below five hundred, 457 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 7: but they're still, by their standards struggling. At the same time, 458 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 7: Aaron Judge is out. Rodin has had a very start 459 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 7: and stop sort of beginning to his career there with 460 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 7: the Yankees. The Red Sox rotation has been up and down. 461 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 7: Take advantage of this the Oils with all their young 462 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 7: position player talent, whether it's show a Otani, whether it's 463 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 7: Marcus Strohman, whether it's Lucas Chilito. Bring in the impact 464 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 7: rental player now, because even though it looks like things 465 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 7: are just getting started. Guys, there's never a promise that 466 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 7: the top teams in your league traditionally are going to 467 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 7: be in the bottom as they are right now. Take 468 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 7: advantage of this year and this day. 469 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 3: Listen to this man. Listen to him. 470 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 7: I'm trying to inspire, guys. 471 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 3: He's trying to give you sound advice.

But Djokovic serve is just insane, 555 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 10: but Alcaaz is wonderful. 556 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 8: It's just crazy watching these two. 557 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 10: Let's go to baseball because what was trending is Cody Bellinger, 558 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 10: so I decided to see why he's training, why he 559 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 10: was trending. 560 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 8: So Yankees Brian Cashman. 561 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 10: Was on Front Office, MLB's network radio and he basically 562 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 10: said that they need a left field hitter. So who 563 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 10: are people putting in the mix? One of the people 564 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 10: on a lot of fans on Twitter are saying that 565 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 10: the Yankee should go for Cody Bellinger. 566 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 8: Who has had a pretty good season with the Cups. 567 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 3: He started ala, he. 568 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 8: Had a Grand Slam yesterday. 569 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 10: So that is what Twitter is saying right now, that 570 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 10: the Yankees should go for Cody Bellinger. But right now 571 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 10: in Major League Baseball, one game really going on because 572 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 10: the rest just started or are on a rain delay. 573 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 10: Giants beating the Pirates three to one bottom of the 574 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 10: fifth inning. The NFL's deadline for franchise tag players to 575 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 10: get multi year deals is tomorrow, Monday at four pm 576 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 10: Eastern time, So franchise tight end Evan Ingram and the 577 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 10: Jaguars reached an agreement on a three year contract with 578 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 10: forty one million dollars that includes forty or excuse me, 579 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 10: includes twenty four million guaranteed.

He ended fifteen under 581 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 10: par overall, one shot ahead of Robert McIntyre. And the 582 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 10: Suns are making lots of moves, so they're trading Campaign, 583 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 10: a second rounder and cash to the Spurs for a 584 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 10: future second round pick. They've acquired bol Bowl to a 585 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 10: one year deal, and they also acquired three second rounders 586 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 10: from Orlando for a draft pick swap. This is all 587 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 10: according to the Athletic. Bradley Bill is set to possibly 588 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 10: be their starting point guard.

It would be his fifth in a row. 617 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 2: He would tie Federer for most wins by a man 618 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 2: in Wimbledon history eight, and his twenty fourth major title 619 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 2: would tie Margaret Court for the most total majors won 620 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 2: by a man or a woman. However, I don't know 621 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 2: this Alcarez kid is he is good man? 622 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 3: This is some really good tennis. 623 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 4: Right now, we'll tell you it's cyclical sports. We always 624 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 4: have this feeling when we're in a era, especially when 625 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 4: it's your era, you know, your teenage years into your twenties, 626 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 4: maybe that extends through your twenties into your thirties, where 627 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 4: you're watching the same great players dominate the sports that 628 00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 4: you enjoy. And when that's the case, you get this 629 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 4: feeling of like, man, when they retire, what's next? Who 630 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 4: could possibly fill the void when these greats end up 631 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 4: stepping aside, And it always seems like there's somebody waiting 632 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 4: in the wings to jump into the league, whatever league, 633 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 4: whether it's pro tennis or it's golf for its or 634 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 4: it's the NBA or NFL, NHL, MLB, and there's somebody 635 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 4: waiting to take over. And mostly because the great players 636 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 4: who have just moved on from the sport or are 637 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 4: in the twilight of their careers have motivated and have 638 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 4: modeled the greatness for the next generation. And there's no 639 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 4: doubt the reason why Alcaraz has admitted some nerves is 640 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 4: because Joker and Federer and Nadal, his peers now as 641 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 4: a twenty year old, are people who motivated him to 642 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 4: this level of greatness. 643 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 2: Well, feder Coors now is retired, Nadal has taken the 644 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: year off. He says next year will be as fine 645 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: a year. So this is the major hur By the way, Djokovic, 646 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 2: if he were to somehow rally and win this Wimbledon, 647 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 2: he would have a chance for a US Open Championship, 648 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: for a calendar Grand Slam that has not happened since 649 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty nine with Rod Laver. So a lot on 650 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: the line here, but right now, all right, Djokovic just 651 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 2: held serve so Alcarez will be serving up four to 652 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 2: three and a service break there at Wimbledon. Let me 653 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 2: ask a quick question here, rich and it's a little 654 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 2: bit of a weird question. So yesterday we had the 655 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,479 Speaker 2: women's final, we had an unseated player win the women's final. 656 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 2: And that's that's sort of a circuit right now. That's 657 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 2: looking for a new star with this Williams sisters, you know, 658 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 2: Serena now retired and of course Venus, you know, well 659 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: into her forties. They've had these women that, you know, 660 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 2: like Naomi Osaka, she went a few and then she 661 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 2: sort of fell by the wayside, and we just haven't 662 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 2: you know, they've been talking about Coco Gop but she 663 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 2: has yet to win a Grand Slam. 664 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 3: But here's the amazing thing. 665 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 2: So the women have made a lot of progs, but 666 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 2: the women's champion, the woman that won yesterday, will get 667 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 2: the exact same pai check as the winner of this match. 668 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 3: And I am certainly a. 669 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 2: Big advocate of equal pay for equal play. But in 670 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 2: the women's game, they played two out of three sets, 671 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 2: and the men they play three out of five. I 672 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 2: don't how do you feel about that? I mean, because 673 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 2: my feeling is the women are certainly capable of playing 674 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 2: three out of five, so why don't they? If the 675 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 2: pay is equal, then they should all play the same 676 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 2: amount of tennis. 677 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 3: Well, in my opinion. 678 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 4: I'm sure there are people who share that opinion. But 679 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 4: I've always been a fan of less is more in sports. 680 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 3: So you would like the men then to do two 681 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 3: out of three instead of three out of five. 682 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 4: I almost always prefer more expedited, urgent sports seasons and games. 683 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 4: I think I think sports are more interesting when when 684 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 4: we are we are rushed to conclusions that sometimes we're 685 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 4: uncomfortable with. Like I don't mind, I really don't. I 686 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 4: don't mind the idea of like a wild card in 687 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,720 Speaker 4: major League Baseball after a slog of a one hundred 688 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 4: and sixty two game season being decided in a single game. 689 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 4: I thought that was a beautiful expression of sports, that 690 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 4: you could have this insane marathon come to a halting 691 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 4: conclusion with one bad night. I loved it. I loved it. 692 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 4: I think it's exactly what it's the spirit of sports. 693 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 4: Sports can be. It can be the greatest lift and 694 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 4: the highest level of elation that you'll experience as a 695 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 4: fan or certainly as a player, and I built my 696 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 4: life around that feeling. Or it can be crushing and 697 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 4: it's not fair. Sometimes sometimes you're starting pitcher had a 698 00:35:54,960 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 4: bad night. Sometimes you're you're starting lineup, your your your bats. 699 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 4: They just didn't produce. Sometimes somebody gets injured. That's sport. 700 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 4: And so I am a big proponent of less is more, 701 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,760 Speaker 4: and so I have no problem with the women receiving 702 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 4: the same pay for their Wimbledon as the men, because frankly, 703 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 4: I like the I like the concept better. And then 704 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 4: on the other side of it, the women rate, Like 705 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 4: when we're talking about. 706 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 2: Well, the women don't rate now. They did when you 707 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 2: had Serio Williams. But I'm saying Scheryl Paulva. You got 708 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 2: cudars on the women's side, but right now you don't. 709 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,240 Speaker 2: So you know, that's lightly anonymous woman winning Wimbledon yesterday 710 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 2: and she gets the same paycheck as the right on 711 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 2: the other side. 712 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 4: But my point is, my point is like, this isn't 713 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 4: the w NBA NBA conversation, this isn't the women's soccer pace. 714 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,919 Speaker 2: It's the only sport where women make equal pay well 715 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 2: and the only. 716 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 4: Sport and it's also a sport where you look at 717 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 4: the television ratings for the women's tennis side, and like 718 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,400 Speaker 4: you said, when they're star driven, same as men's by 719 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 4: the way, when they have stars, they just do half 720 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 4: stars now playing well, then the ratings are fairly equivalent 721 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,960 Speaker 4: as well, And so I do think it's fair, all right. 722 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 2: No one was watching yesterday on the women's fine, nobody 723 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 2: just because you're you don't have Serena anymore. 724 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 4: Were you watching? No? I was not. I was not. 725 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 4: Why I'm factor, I thought owns J was going to win. 726 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 4: Do this to us all right. 727 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 2: On the other side, we got some nbareviews up day 728 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 2: for you. 729 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:26,879 Speaker 3: Keep it here. 730 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,280 Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday. Steve Harbin and Rich Herberger, 731 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday. We are live from the Tyraq dot 732 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 2: com studios. All right, we're thirty all in the current 733 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 2: game going on with Ocarez serving to win Wimbledon. The 734 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:50,879 Speaker 2: athleticism of this twenty year old is ridiculous. I mean, 735 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 2: and now he has match point, match point coming up 736 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 2: for Acarez trying to knock out four time defending champions seven. 737 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:05,839 Speaker 2: I'm Wimbledon champion, twenty three time major champion Novak Djokovic. 738 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 2: So we would we could definitely see a changing of 739 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 2: the guard in men's tennis literally on this next point. 740 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean this is how torches our past. 741 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 4: I mean, we've we've seen great battle in individual or 742 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 4: team sports, and we've seen outcomes that have ushered in 743 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 4: new generations, and this could be one of them. It's 744 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 4: it's interesting, and. 745 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 2: There it is right there. Alkarez has just one Wimbledon. 746 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 2: He has just defeated Novak Djokovic. 747 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 4: It's interesting because what happens when when we see things 748 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 4: like this in major sports, like you know, in the 749 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 4: NFL where Brady and Mahomes face each other in a 750 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 4: Super Bowl, you know, the feeling is well, geez, you know, yeah, 751 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 4: you're kind of rooting for Tom Brady because Kenny really 752 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 4: do it, you know, at the at the advanced age, 753 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 4: can he beat the youngest, brightest star in the NFL. 754 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 4: But at the same token, you are rooting for the 755 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 4: new guy. You're thinking to yourself, well, wouldn't it benefit 756 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 4: all of us more if the next era is as 757 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 4: good as the last? And so in that matchup, obviously 758 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 4: the old goat won. In this one, there's a new 759 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 4: sheriff in town. Alcarez is your Wimbledon champion? Yeah, he is. 760 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 2: And you know, when you think about and we see 761 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 2: this in a lot of sports, where someone is a protege, 762 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 2: someone that's so young a sense to the top of 763 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 2: their sport. And Alcarez has done that at the age 764 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,879 Speaker 2: of twenty. Remember last year, as a nineteen year old, 765 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 2: he won the US Open. 766 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:41,399 Speaker 3: So he is that. 767 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 2: And it's always amazing when you see interviews with a 768 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 2: lot of athletes that have really early success they look 769 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 2: back saying I wish I could have appreciated it more 770 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 2: when it was happening, Like you know, I, you know, 771 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 2: you're young, there's no other distractions. I mean, Djokovic, I've 772 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 2: say it's a family that's part of it for athletes. 773 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,360 Speaker 2: You know, we have a family, you get married and 774 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 2: suddenly you know. But when you're this young and it's 775 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 2: the only thing you're doing, sometimes it may take in 776 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,839 Speaker 2: a little time. So anyway, we're up against it right now. 777 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 3: But there it is. 778 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:20,760 Speaker 2: Carlos Awkarez is your Wimbledon champion. Djokovic still one short 779 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 2: of tying that all time record for career Grand Slams. 780 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 2: Should get another opportunity coming up at the US Open. 781 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,760 Speaker 2: All right, we have a number of NBA trade rumors, 782 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 2: all the latest.

And I've been working with you 840 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 4: for close to a decade. 841 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 2: Now, yeah, I because I remember all these obscure numbers 842 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 2: in sports, you know, whether it's batting average or whatever, the. 843 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 3: Numbers can be, the uniform numbers. I just go blank 844 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:00,399 Speaker 3: on him. 845 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 4: Oh man, all right. Let me think of like a 846 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 4: relatively famous guy who you should know, like like Carson Palmer. 847 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 4: What was his number? Nine? Ten? I think was he nine? Ten? 848 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:17,399 Speaker 4: Might be nine. 849 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 3: I mean people would even say like Tom Brady, and 850 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 3: I'm like, no, you're right, You're right, Carson Palmer war 851 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 3: nine nine. 852 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 2: Okay, so I got some of those single digits, but 853 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 2: like you pretty good? Fifteen, fourteen, eighteen, seventeen? 854 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 4: Oh yeah? Actually that what does patrick? Patrick Mahomes waar well? 855 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 3: I think now because I said fifteen the only By 856 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 3: the way, are you watching that show Quarterback? 857 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 4: I am? 858 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So I saw the first episode. This is 859 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 2: on Netflix. It's the production company of Peyton Manning and 860 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 2: it follows three quarterbacks through all of last season from 861 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 2: beginning to end, behind the scenes stuff and everything else. 862 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 3: So it's got Patrick Mahomes. 863 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,360 Speaker 4: One number did Peyton manningwear? 864 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:05,840 Speaker 3: Eighteen? 865 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 1: Oh? 866 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 4: Wow? 867 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,439 Speaker 3: Dude, you're better at this than you're given credit, only 868 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:13,760 Speaker 3: because I might have just seen it Kirk Cousins and 869 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 3: Marcus Mariota, and I thought it was brilliant because they 870 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 3: really you think back to the beginning of last year obviously, 871 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 3: when they made these. 872 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 2: Choices, they were three guys in very different stages of 873 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:30,320 Speaker 2: their career. So brilliant casting, by the way. I just 874 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 2: I just wonder when they pull back the curtain, Like 875 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 2: there was this one scene I only saw the first episode, 876 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:40,280 Speaker 2: but the first scene, Uh, there's Patrick Mahomes with his wife. 877 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 2: They're expecting their second child, and she has all these 878 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 2: pictures that she wants to get done, and you can 879 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 2: just see as total. 880 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,320 Speaker 3: Disdain for taking pictures. 881 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so she says something like he hates taking pictures, 882 00:45:53,920 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 2: And I'm thinking to myself, most guys hate taking pictures also, correct, 883 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,280 Speaker 2: most of us if we're dragged into one of those, 884 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 2: hey take some you know, you remember like when you 885 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 2: got engaged or wedding photos, you know, and you're just 886 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 2: when is this going to be over? So I'm just 887 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:17,440 Speaker 2: thinking I'm watching him, thinking, yeah, that's every guy. Like 888 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 2: she's like, she's like, yeah, you know you think of 889 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 2: it like he's outgoing, but he really hates taking pictures. 890 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 3: I'm like, that's like every dude hates taking. 891 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 4: There is nothing there's a lot that's unique about Patrick Mahomes. 892 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 4: That's not one of them. 893 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:35,359 Speaker 3: That's a very regular guy thing, regular guy thing. Would 894 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:36,359 Speaker 3: you would you do that? 895 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 4: Though? 896 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 2: Would you would you open up your private life to 897 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:40,720 Speaker 2: the cameras? 898 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 4: Good question in some ways, you know, doing what we do, 899 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 4: I've had to. It's it's not the most comfortable thing 900 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 4: to share more about yourself than you're really like innately 901 00:46:56,040 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 4: willing to. There are certain people who love fame. There 902 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 4: are certain people who like their goal when they set 903 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 4: out on whatever path they set out was to be 904 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 4: famous because they wanted the people to know that. That's 905 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 4: a great example. The Paris Hilton, I think just enjoyed 906 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 4: the limelight. I mean it's just, you know, it's it's 907 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 4: one of those things where and then there's certain you know, 908 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 4: people who were great at doing whatever their given field, 909 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 4: Actresses or actors who really do appear to love fame. 910 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:34,240 Speaker 4: Athletes certainly, you know, I mean Terrell or Chado Chosinko. 911 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 4: I mean, there's certain people who love the camera. But 912 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 4: but there's there's definitely more. I would argue that don't 913 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,840 Speaker 4: And since Patrick Mahomes, I mean, his goal is to 914 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 4: be the greatest football player ever. Like, it's very clear 915 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 4: he set his sights. 916 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 2: I mean, he's only five more Super Bowls away from 917 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 2: tying Tom Brady, and I mean that's nothing. 918 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 4: And he's a young man and he's on a similar trajectory. 919 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 4: You argue, you could argue a better trajectory early in 920 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:05,240 Speaker 4: his career. 921 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:09,320 Speaker 2: His five straight AFC championship games yep, yeah, three super 922 00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:13,400 Speaker 2: Bowl appearances, two super Bowl wins. But Tom Brady already 923 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 2: had three super Bowl championships in his first four years. 924 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 3: He didn't have sur MVPs though he did not he 925 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:19,919 Speaker 3: had zero at that point. 926 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, so they're they're well. So again, some would argue 927 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 4: the point I'm trying to make, though, is this is 928 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 4: what he's good at. He's not necessarily good at being 929 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 4: famous famous. Being good at being famous is actually a skill. 930 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 4: We've learned that over the years. Yeah, I mean, and 931 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 4: so I don't necessarily think he's bad at it, but 932 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 4: I also don't think he's particularly great at it, and 933 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,320 Speaker 4: it's because he doesn't particularly care for it. Now, it 934 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 4: looks to me like Patrick Mahomes is about one thing 935 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,720 Speaker 4: or maybe two things, having fun, which he's clearly having 936 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 4: fun and playing amazing football and getting as good at 937 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:53,760 Speaker 4: the sport as he possibly can, and being a good teammate. 938 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 4: Tag that along with the other two. I mean, it 939 00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 4: just that's what it appears to me. Now. The people 940 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 4: in his ga Alexy, the people in his orbit, like 941 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 4: his wife, like his brother, those people appear to really 942 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 4: enjoy the fame. There's no question in my mind, like, 943 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,120 Speaker 4: based on what I've seen, what I've seen from Patrick 944 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,800 Speaker 4: is very different than what I've seen from Brittany, his wife, 945 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 4: and Jackson, his brother. 946 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:21,520 Speaker 2: By the way, Kirk Cousins, at least early on comes 947 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 2: off is about an average guy as humanly possible. His 948 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,000 Speaker 2: wife talked about the fact that, yeah, they shot for 949 00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 2: his shirts at Target right, and they have a considering 950 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:38,240 Speaker 2: how much money he makes. They have a pretty modest home. 951 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 2: It just looks like a pretty normal middle class home 952 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 2: you know in Minnesota, which you know is now the 953 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 2: same price tag if you were living in southern California. 954 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 3: I appreciate that. 955 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 2: I mean, I always appreciate certain guys that have an 956 00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:01,880 Speaker 2: understanding that as an ath let. Your life as an 957 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 2: athlete is short. Yeah, in terms of the spectrum of 958 00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 2: your entire life. 959 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 4: And your earning potential drops off a cliff which. 960 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 2: Completely goes from wherever you're at to zero. You have 961 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 2: to start over again. And the idea, well, I could 962 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 2: just I'll be an announcer. There aren't many of those 963 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 2: jobs available, you know, and then you could go into 964 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 2: coaching or make plans outside of that. You know, yesterday 965 00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 2: in talking with Carrie Rhodes, he actually works rich with 966 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 2: athletes to help sort of prepare that next step you 967 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:42,480 Speaker 2: know after you know, because he was into you know, 968 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 2: he became an actor and everything else, but it was 969 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 2: something that he had an interest in long before he even. 970 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:49,360 Speaker 3: Got into college. 971 00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 2: So it was already that was like in his mind, 972 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,720 Speaker 2: like that's where I want to go while he's playing 973 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 2: in the NFL. Do you think the NFL does a 974 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 2: good enough job of sort of prepping guys for life 975 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:04,440 Speaker 2: after football. 976 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:11,440 Speaker 4: No, but that's not their goal, right, you know. I mean, 977 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:15,360 Speaker 4: let's be very honest, it's nor is it really their responsibility. 978 00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 4: It's just there the effort that they pay attention, or 979 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 4: I should say, the effort that they put into paying 980 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:26,760 Speaker 4: attention to players post career is for public relations purposes only. 981 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 4: They just want these guys to not leave the sport 982 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 4: and then go do illegal things that will bring poor 983 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 4: publicity to the league, or go completely broke which will 984 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,799 Speaker 4: bring poor publicity to the league, or you know, get 985 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 4: divorced in mass or make headlines for negative reasons. Because 986 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,760 Speaker 4: even though you could be ten years twenty years departed 987 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 4: from your NFL career, it'll be former NFL player x 988 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:58,640 Speaker 4: Y or z did x y or z. You're always 989 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,840 Speaker 4: representing the Shield as a former player, and the NFL 990 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 4: is keenly aware of that. So whatever efforts they put 991 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 4: in and they are marginal to get players to help, 992 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 4: they need there because it's better for the league if 993 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 4: they if they take care of their players. If there 994 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 4: was no profit incentive or no risk to them paying 995 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,880 Speaker 4: zero attention to players when they transition out of the NFL, 996 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,239 Speaker 4: they wouldn't spend a single dollar. I can promise you 997 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 4: that very much. Now, the NFLPA, the union goes to 998 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:34,319 Speaker 4: great lengths to provide benefits for former players, and they 999 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 4: try to also encourage current players to realize that, like 1000 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 4: you just pointed out with Kirk Cousins and the way 1001 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 4: he's living modestly. Your NFL career is short, your life 1002 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,920 Speaker 4: is long, and to make great plans for your post career. 1003 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:48,560 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah. 1004 00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 2: And by the way, you say, oh right, well I've 1005 00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:54,319 Speaker 2: got three or four million in the bank. Yeah, that's 1006 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:56,279 Speaker 2: not going to go very far if you're going to 1007 00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:59,240 Speaker 2: live another fifty years. So yeah, you got to figure 1008 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 2: out something else to do. 1009 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 4: All right. 1010 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,600 Speaker 2: Coming up on the other side, Damian Lillard is still 1011 00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 2: a Portland Trailblazer, but for how long we got the 1012 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:12,320 Speaker 2: latest trade rumors? This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harvin 1013 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 2: and or at Charnberger Fox Sports Sunday. We are live 1014 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 2: from the tire rack dot Com studios. Accarez is the 1015 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 2: youngest Wimbledon men's champion since Boris Becker, who won back 1016 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:27,319 Speaker 2: to back at the age of seventeen and eighteen his 1017 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:31,479 Speaker 2: first two Wimbledons. So hefty paid day as well. Big 1018 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 2: championship win over Djokovic. There, all right, I'm reading a 1019 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 2: headline here Rich The Portland Trailblazers are willing to wait 1020 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 2: months for any Damian Lillard trade, which is of course 1021 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 2: their way of saying we haven't heard anything close to 1022 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,959 Speaker 2: what we're looking for in trading away Damian Lillard, who, 1023 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 2: again it's a different situation. It's very similar to the 1024 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,480 Speaker 2: situation a year ago with Kevin Durant and the Nets 1025 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:01,799 Speaker 2: in the fact that he has multiple years remaining on 1026 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,760 Speaker 2: his contract, so it's not like as an expiring contract 1027 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:06,879 Speaker 2: and we got to get rid of him now, or 1028 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 2: you know, face the prospect of getting nothing in return. 1029 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 2: He's und your contract for three full years and then 1030 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 2: as a player option in twenty six twenty seven for 1031 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, sixty two million things. He's going to 1032 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,879 Speaker 2: pick that one up sixty two million dollars for that year. 1033 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean that he won't be traded. So 1034 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 2: I've heard the latest, because we keep hearing this. So 1035 00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 2: he wants to go to the Miami Heat. He wants 1036 00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 2: to go to the Miami Heat, and the Miami Heat 1037 00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:37,439 Speaker 2: have offered Tyler Hero to the Blazers, and the Blazers 1038 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 2: publicly have stated we have no interest in Tyler Hero. 1039 00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 2: So that means most likely you're going to have to 1040 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,320 Speaker 2: have a three team trade to get this done, because 1041 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 2: really what Portland wants are a lot of first round 1042 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 2: picks to start building. 1043 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 3: For the future. 1044 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 2: So I heard a recent deal that actually makes a 1045 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 2: little bit of sense. So it would involve the Blazers, 1046 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:08,680 Speaker 2: the Heat, and the San Antonio Spurs. So ultimately, the 1047 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:14,359 Speaker 2: Heat get Damian Lillard, the Spurs get Tyler Hero, which 1048 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 2: is a pretty good fit for a young team, you know, 1049 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 2: to get a guy that can actually knock down some 1050 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:21,319 Speaker 2: shots as far as Portland is concerned. They would get 1051 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 2: some bench guys like Duncan Robinson. You know, there's not 1052 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 2: a lot left on the Heat bench because guys have left. 1053 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:30,879 Speaker 2: But they would get a Heat first round pick next year, 1054 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 2: a Bulls first round pick that is owned by San 1055 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:37,239 Speaker 2: Antonio the next year, and then a bunch of future picks, 1056 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 2: you know, twenty seven to twenty eight thirty type first 1057 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 2: round picks. What is your gut feeling there, I mean, 1058 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 2: I still maintain because of his contract situation. Then I 1059 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:50,360 Speaker 2: want to also get into allegiance and everything else. But 1060 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 2: do you believe right as we're sitting here today that 1061 00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:59,239 Speaker 2: he will be a member of the Miami Heat for 1062 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 2: the starting next. 1063 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 4: There's no way for me to answer that, or for 1064 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 4: anybody to answer that right now. It really comes down 1065 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 4: to compensation and if these two sides can find a 1066 00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 4: level that matches the talent heading to South Beach. Look, 1067 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 4: every negotiation ends, or I should say every good negotiation 1068 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:23,320 Speaker 4: ends with both sides being unsatisfied. You know, obviously Miami 1069 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,120 Speaker 4: is probably in that situation going to have to part 1070 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 4: with more than they want to, and it means that 1071 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 4: the Trailblazers are going to get less than they want back. 1072 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 4: But that's that's what a good negotiation looks like. All 1073 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 4: parties being equally dissatisfied is how you know that that 1074 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:45,800 Speaker 4: maybe the best ends were met and justify the means. 1075 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 4: I concentrate more with this story on exactly what Damian 1076 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 4: Lillard's asking for. I'm still very much so hung up 1077 00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:57,840 Speaker 4: on the damage that this will do to the NBA 1078 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 4: and the precedent that will set for players moving forward. 1079 00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 4: If Dame Lillard ends up in Miami, this is a problem. 1080 00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:12,040 Speaker 4: This is a problem contracts. If Dame Lillard not only 1081 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 4: can request the trade and break a contract he's just 1082 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 4: signed with the Blazers, but then also pick the team 1083 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:24,360 Speaker 4: he wants to go to, this is a problem. This 1084 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 4: is not a good thing. It's not good for the league, 1085 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,040 Speaker 4: even if it makes Miami better, and even if it 1086 00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:34,600 Speaker 4: makes the Blazers better, it's still a huge problem. There's 1087 00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 4: already a problem with loyalty in the NBA in terms 1088 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 4: of players playing out their contracts with certain teams. There's 1089 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:43,960 Speaker 4: already an issue with fans and fathers of young fans 1090 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 4: worrying about whether or not they can buy a Stars 1091 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 4: jersey because is he a rental or is he a lifer? 1092 00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 4: Is he a guy who they're going to be able 1093 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 4: to build around, or is he going to in some 1094 00:57:55,840 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 4: cases selfishly, self interestedly chase his passions and remove him 1095 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 4: from the city he currently plays in. 1096 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 2: All right, let me slow it down for a second here. 1097 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:10,400 Speaker 2: So a year ago, a year ago, exactly a year ago, 1098 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:13,640 Speaker 2: when Damian Lillard signed an extension of max extension on 1099 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 2: his deal. Here's what he said, and he actually put 1100 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 2: this out on social media. He said, I don't think 1101 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,200 Speaker 2: that you earned something like this just by going out 1102 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:25,600 Speaker 2: there and scoring a bunch of points. Something that's missing 1103 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 2: in our league is character and the fight and the 1104 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 2: passion and pride about you know, not just the name 1105 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:34,640 Speaker 2: on the back, but the name on the front, and 1106 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 2: how you impact the people that you come in contact with. 1107 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,640 Speaker 2: In other words, it was important to him a year 1108 00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 2: ago that he remained a Trailblazer because he's invested a 1109 00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,160 Speaker 2: lot in that city. Not everyone was predicting that Damian 1110 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 2: Lillard was going to be a member of the seventy 1111 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:56,800 Speaker 2: fifth anniversary team when he signed with Portland, and he 1112 00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:02,040 Speaker 2: made it clear a year ago that this wasn't just 1113 00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 2: about the money. This wasn't just about It was about 1114 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:10,880 Speaker 2: an allegiance and a responsibility to those that invested, as 1115 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 2: you were saying, rich, those that invested their time and 1116 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,440 Speaker 2: money in rooting for you, in this case in the 1117 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 2: city of Portland. 1118 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:18,520 Speaker 3: So what changed? 1119 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:22,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this was one year ago. I trust me. 1120 00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 4: I can flip the coin over and I can speak 1121 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 4: to what Damian Lillard has probably gone through over this 1122 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:32,840 Speaker 4: past year. Maybe he's started feeling a little distance with 1123 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,760 Speaker 4: the front office, whereas he felt warmth on the you know, 1124 00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:39,560 Speaker 4: the heels of signing that giant max contract with them. 1125 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,479 Speaker 4: Maybe they've started shifting their opinion on what this team 1126 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 4: needs to move forward, and maybe all of a sudden, 1127 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 4: Damian Lillard isn't a part of that future. Maybe they 1128 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 4: didn't speak to him at any length about what their 1129 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 4: plans were for the draft, And like we know with 1130 00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 4: many stars in the past, when you start making plans 1131 00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:03,040 Speaker 4: for the future with looping in the star, the writing's 1132 01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:05,400 Speaker 4: on the wall. It happened to Peyton Manning with Andrew Luck, 1133 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:09,439 Speaker 4: it happened to Aaron Rodgers with Jordan Love, and it's 1134 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 4: happened now to Damian Lillard with Scoot Henderson. And when 1135 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:17,760 Speaker 4: these sort of things happen, you're going to upset a 1136 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:21,680 Speaker 4: star player, because wow, he seems egoless when you read 1137 01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 4: that statement, and he seems selfless, and he seems like 1138 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,400 Speaker 4: the ultimate teammate, and he seems like the ultimate team 1139 01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:30,120 Speaker 4: guy and somebody who's gonna fight for Portland throughout the 1140 01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 4: course of his career. Some of those words that he 1141 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 4: was speaking to, like the loyalty aspect, Maybe he feels 1142 01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 4: like he's been wronged and there's been a great disloyalty 1143 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 4: done to him. And so if these are important creeds 1144 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 4: and core values to his life and the organization that 1145 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:54,520 Speaker 4: he trusted has now abandoned their side of that loyalty, 1146 01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 4: well then why should he remain loyal to them? So 1147 01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 4: you could make the argument for Damian Lillard, But and 1148 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:04,640 Speaker 4: by the way, I can see it that way, And 1149 01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:07,520 Speaker 4: by the way, I'm supportive of any player in any 1150 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 4: league because your earning potential is so short. To chase 1151 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:14,960 Speaker 4: the money, to chase the acclaim, to chase whatever it 1152 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 4: is that you, whatever boxes you want to check before 1153 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 4: your career ends, go out and do a kid, because 1154 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 4: that's what you are. You may not realize it, but 1155 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,320 Speaker 4: you're a kid. You're gonna spend the rest of your 1156 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:28,800 Speaker 4: life as a grown man and life king. You'll look 1157 01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:31,600 Speaker 4: back on these times and you'll have some regrets. You'll have, 1158 01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 4: you know, obviously, some things that you'll celebrate. You want 1159 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:36,960 Speaker 4: as few of those regrets as possible. So if chasing 1160 01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:38,800 Speaker 4: a ring in South Beach is something you really want 1161 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:41,640 Speaker 4: to do, go do it. But what I'm talking about 1162 01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:44,960 Speaker 4: is global. What I'm talking about is a precedent. It 1163 01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:49,120 Speaker 4: sets for this next group of superstars who are watching 1164 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 4: the stars of today like Lebron James leap frog from 1165 01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 4: city to city to city chasing rings, like Kevin Durant 1166 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 4: leapfrog from city to city to city, chasing rings, like 1167 01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 4: James leap rogging from city to city to city chasing rings. 1168 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:08,640 Speaker 4: And now Dame Lillard. Somebody who sounded different, seemed different, 1169 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 4: is doing the same thing, and not only doing it, 1170 01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:15,280 Speaker 4: but doing it in the most damaging possible facts factor 1171 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:19,480 Speaker 4: to the league by calling out the individual team, the 1172 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:22,160 Speaker 4: only team that he wants to play for. This is 1173 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:25,080 Speaker 4: going to be crippling to the NBA because it's gonna 1174 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:29,479 Speaker 4: handcuff these owners and these front offices to completely bend 1175 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,560 Speaker 4: the need to their superstars. It's not gonna be and 1176 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:35,520 Speaker 4: the people who lose the most, it's not the billionaire 1177 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:39,480 Speaker 4: owners that I'm worried about, it's the fans. This is entertainment. 1178 01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 4: It's how people escape their lives and their hardships, and 1179 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:45,120 Speaker 4: they turn to these people who are grasping at Live's 1180 01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:48,040 Speaker 4: brass ring or gold ring, and it seems like so 1181 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 4: much fun rooting for these guys who go from humble 1182 01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:54,800 Speaker 4: means to greatness. Well, this is different. This feels like 1183 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:58,400 Speaker 4: you're taking advantage of a situation and it's not going 1184 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 4: to end well for the fans. And that's the fortunate 1185 01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:01,120 Speaker 4: reality of this. 1186 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:06,120 Speaker 3: Again a year ago, Damian Lillard's words, something that's missing 1187 01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:08,880 Speaker 3: in our league as character and the fight and the 1188 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:11,600 Speaker 3: passion and pride about you know, not just the name 1189 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:13,960 Speaker 3: on the back, but the name on the front and 1190 01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:17,360 Speaker 3: how you impact the people that you come in contact with. 1191 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 2: How times it changed? All right, let's find out what 1192 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:21,640 Speaker 2: is trending right now? 1193 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:22,120 Speaker 4: All right? 1194 01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 3: So, Mancy, I want to ask you, as a Clippers 1195 01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 3: die hard, Yes, who would you rather make a deal 1196 01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:35,520 Speaker 3: for Damian Lillard or James Harden? Knowing you would have 1197 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 3: to gut your bench and whatever remains of any draft 1198 01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:39,880 Speaker 3: picks that you didn't already give up For. 1199 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 10: Paul George, I'm going to assume that Damian Lillard would 1200 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:47,240 Speaker 10: deplete our bench even more. 1201 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:53,400 Speaker 8: I'm going to assume that right as I really think 1202 01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:57,600 Speaker 8: neither of them is gonna Who's gonna play all games? 1203 01:03:57,760 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 8: That's what Who's gonna play? 1204 01:03:59,200 --> 01:03:59,400 Speaker 4: Well? 1205 01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:02,320 Speaker 3: I mean again, that's how I'm down to. Total games. 1206 01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 3: Have we seen Kawhi Leonard and Paul George together? I do. 1207 01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:08,840 Speaker 2: I don't know what percentage of games less than half. 1208 01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:10,200 Speaker 8: We have hung out on Sundays more. 1209 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 4: Than we know that. 1210 01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:13,440 Speaker 3: I mean, Kawhi missed an entire year, it's less than 1211 01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:14,400 Speaker 3: half obviously. 1212 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 10: Right, So it's like it's hard really because I think 1213 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 10: either one can obviously bring something to the table and 1214 01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:21,840 Speaker 10: they can help us win. But in reality, that's not 1215 01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 10: the problem that the Clippers have, right, So it's like, okay, 1216 01:04:25,200 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 10: you're bringing me another great player. Great, that doesn't that 1217 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:30,600 Speaker 10: hasn't been the solution. Who is going to stay healthy 1218 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 10: and who is going to play? But if I had 1219 01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:36,640 Speaker 10: to pick gun to my head type of situation, if 1220 01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:38,520 Speaker 10: we're already gonna give everybody up, might as well get 1221 01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:39,240 Speaker 10: Damian Lillard. 1222 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:43,200 Speaker 9: Going with Lillard, why not Kawhi and PG? 1223 01:04:43,480 --> 01:04:43,680 Speaker 4: Yes? 1224 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:46,840 Speaker 3: Yes, So out of eighty two games, how do you 1225 01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 3: how many games do you think all three would be 1226 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:50,040 Speaker 3: on the court to get half? 1227 01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 8: I would hope that's hoping. That is me fingers crossed half. 1228 01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:59,360 Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, And the reports are saying that James 1229 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 10: Harden is determined to get to the Clippers.

When did the Clippers become a destination when. 1233 01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:12,920 Speaker 3: When you have an owner worth over ninety billion dollars. 1234 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 8: I guess that's what it is. 1235 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:18,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I just I just want them to play, 1236 01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:21,400 Speaker 10: actually play, and see you know what they can do 1237 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 10: if they're actually playing together. 1238 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 3: In beauty of playing for the Clippers? 1239 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 4: Is this? 1240 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:28,760 Speaker 3: There are no expectations that is. I mean, it's not 1241 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 3: like the Lakers or the Celtics where you got to 1242 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:32,520 Speaker 3: try to continue a tradition. 1243 01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:36,560 Speaker 10: Not to us Clipper fans, the expectation has been there 1244 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:37,440 Speaker 10: for a few years. 1245 01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:40,560 Speaker 8: But you are right, the expectations. 1246 01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 3: Whirl with Slipper fans. 1247 01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 8: Yes, me, Ben Maller, Brian Finley.

I got 1319 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:46,439 Speaker 8: things to say. 1320 01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:48,960 Speaker 10: Nationals beating the Cardinals one zero top of the second, 1321 01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:50,960 Speaker 10: Red Sox up on the Cubs one zero top of 1322 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:51,920 Speaker 10: the second as well. 1323 01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:53,880 Speaker 8: Busy Sunday, back to you guys. 1324 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 2: I actually saw a video on YouTube. Somebody went back. 1325 01:08:57,560 --> 01:09:02,280 Speaker 2: It was the month of May. Punch out called strike 1326 01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:05,479 Speaker 2: threes that were so far off the plate they weren't 1327 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:08,519 Speaker 2: even close. And these are punch out, you know, strike 1328 01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:14,040 Speaker 2: three looking yeah, non swinging, and they're not even close. 1329 01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 8: They're not. It's like, are you calling a. 1330 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:19,519 Speaker 3: Stocky low wide. It didn't matter. They're just way off 1331 01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 3: the plate. 1332 01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:23,639 Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't know why we have umpires calling 1333 01:09:23,640 --> 01:09:26,200 Speaker 2: balls and strikes when you can do electronically. I mean, 1334 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 2: you're watching tennis, right, They will they will look at 1335 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:33,240 Speaker 2: a review of a one hundred and thirty five mile. 1336 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,960 Speaker 4: An hour serve. Yeah that maybe. 1337 01:09:35,760 --> 01:09:38,680 Speaker 2: Tick the line, yeah, tick the line, because that's all 1338 01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:42,479 Speaker 2: it just has to tick an edge like a hundredth 1339 01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:45,760 Speaker 2: of an inch and they never challenge it like there 1340 01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:46,840 Speaker 2: it is, you see it right there. 1341 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 3: But let's move on done. Yeah, they can easily do that. 1342 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:53,479 Speaker 8: And they already said no umpire robots next season. 1343 01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:56,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's ridiculous. It's time. 1344 01:09:56,280 --> 01:10:00,960 Speaker 2: It's very, very overdue time, no doubt about that. All right, 1345 01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:04,000 Speaker 2: So we're talking about this littler situation, and I love 1346 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 2: your diatribe, I really do, Rich because in a lot 1347 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:13,160 Speaker 2: of ways, it's not about well, first of all, let's 1348 01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:15,599 Speaker 2: let's be careful what you wish for. We were talking 1349 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,480 Speaker 2: about James Harden with Monsei, right, remember the whole hardened situation, 1350 01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:22,200 Speaker 2: like he wanted out of Houston. Yeah, you did, And 1351 01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:24,840 Speaker 2: now we're staring at him with his four team coming 1352 01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 2: up in like four years. You know, again, if Damian 1353 01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:33,920 Speaker 2: Lillard goes to Miami and they will have pretty much 1354 01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:37,840 Speaker 2: gutted their roster to have a trio of Butler, who 1355 01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:41,439 Speaker 2: is obviously not getting any younger. Neither is Damian Lillard 1356 01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:45,599 Speaker 2: and a bam ade Bio. Really the the root of 1357 01:10:45,640 --> 01:10:49,599 Speaker 2: that team, right was all these undrafted guys off the bench, 1358 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:52,519 Speaker 2: the Martins of the world and the Robinson's, all these 1359 01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:54,760 Speaker 2: guys coming off the bench and you know, giving them 1360 01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:57,720 Speaker 2: some quality minutes and you take that away. I look 1361 01:10:57,720 --> 01:11:00,400 Speaker 2: at the Phoenix Sun, same thing. They gutted their roster 1362 01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:02,720 Speaker 2: to get Kevin Durant. It's not to say that Kevin 1363 01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 2: Durant is one of the greatest players of all time. 1364 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:09,360 Speaker 2: Obviously he is, but it takes more than that. Individuals 1365 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:14,160 Speaker 2: and their value in a team. Sport Rich and We've 1366 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:17,519 Speaker 2: talked about this many times. It's not even just about 1367 01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:20,200 Speaker 2: the pieces, but do the pieces fit. 1368 01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:25,440 Speaker 4: Chemistry, it has to fit. It's super important and it's overlooked, 1369 01:11:25,479 --> 01:11:28,200 Speaker 4: but it has worked in the past, Steve, it has 1370 01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:30,559 Speaker 4: and it will work in the future where you assemble 1371 01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:31,439 Speaker 4: a super team. 1372 01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:34,880 Speaker 3: Boston did it with Kevin Durant and Yep and Ray 1373 01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:37,040 Speaker 3: Allen joining Paul Pierce. It worked. 1374 01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 4: You bring in, you bring in one last piece or 1375 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 4: a couple of pieces, You get cheap role players, and 1376 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:45,880 Speaker 4: you go out and win a ring. Yeah. I mean 1377 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:48,320 Speaker 4: the Warriors had a good culture in place, but they 1378 01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:50,640 Speaker 4: had a Lebron problem. So they brought in Katie and 1379 01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 4: they won two rings with him. You know it's there. 1380 01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:55,759 Speaker 4: It works, It works. 1381 01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:57,480 Speaker 3: Look at the Ransom Matthew Stafford. 1382 01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:00,559 Speaker 2: It won a chance, and they you know, they invested 1383 01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:02,599 Speaker 2: money in a bunch of guys. 1384 01:12:03,960 --> 01:12:07,320 Speaker 4: Jalen Ramsey. It was I mean, they did this several times. 1385 01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:08,720 Speaker 3: Untill they brought von Miller in. 1386 01:12:08,880 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 2: Remember this, they brought in Bay Yeah, and and they 1387 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,599 Speaker 2: they basically said, forget about next year in the future, 1388 01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:16,439 Speaker 2: we're trying to win. 1389 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:18,160 Speaker 4: Now, we're winning a Super Bowl. 1390 01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:19,120 Speaker 3: And they did it. 1391 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:22,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, look it works. I want to talk about another trade, 1392 01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:24,240 Speaker 4: and I know we'll get into it more on the 1393 01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 4: other side, but I just sort of want to peel 1394 01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:30,200 Speaker 4: back the sticker on this brand new shiny toy that 1395 01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 4: the Tennessee Titans have to play with. DeAndre Hopkins signs 1396 01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:37,680 Speaker 4: a two year deal. They still finalizing that, but you 1397 01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 4: would assume it'll get done. And this has been a 1398 01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:43,080 Speaker 4: courtship that has been long discussed during his free agency 1399 01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:48,719 Speaker 4: this offseason. My first blush reaction is that's a winnable 1400 01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:53,719 Speaker 4: division in the AFC South and DeAndre Hopkins is going 1401 01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:57,280 Speaker 4: to fill the void that aj Brown left the Tennessee 1402 01:12:57,320 --> 01:13:01,879 Speaker 4: Titans in trade with the Philadelphia Eagles. That was apparent 1403 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,559 Speaker 4: and a big reason, not the only reason, but a 1404 01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 4: big reason why the vertical game was basically missing last 1405 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:12,800 Speaker 4: year for the Tennessee Titans and led them to a 1406 01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:17,519 Speaker 4: seven win season. I think that Ryan Tannehill is one 1407 01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:22,360 Speaker 4: of those quarterbacks who is not great unless he has 1408 01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:26,439 Speaker 4: great pieces around him. So in Miami he struggled for 1409 01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 4: years because they had some anonymity in terms of the 1410 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:33,280 Speaker 4: skill players around him. But if the Titans have a 1411 01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:36,840 Speaker 4: healthy Derrick Henry and they have a healthy DeAndre Hopkins 1412 01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 4: and an available DeAndre Hopkins, the Titans may have just 1413 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,960 Speaker 4: made one of the biggest moves of their twenty twenty 1414 01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 4: three and they get him on a contract that if 1415 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:52,000 Speaker 4: it earns you a division win, you can't argue with 1416 01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:53,839 Speaker 4: the amount of money they're paying d hop. 1417 01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:55,160 Speaker 3: All right, Well, on the other side, I want to 1418 01:13:55,160 --> 01:13:56,719 Speaker 3: get a little bit more into this deal. 1419 01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:56,960 Speaker 4: Again. 1420 01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:59,439 Speaker 2: It is rein reported that he's agreed to a two year, 1421 01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:03,280 Speaker 2: twenty six million dollars deal a potential six million more 1422 01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:06,639 Speaker 2: in incentives to join the Tennessee Titans. But that means 1423 01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:10,280 Speaker 2: another team is not going to get DeAndre Hopkins. And 1424 01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:12,720 Speaker 2: you talked about stretching the field. Is he still that 1425 01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:15,320 Speaker 2: kind of receiver? We'll talk about this d hop deal. 1426 01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:19,439 Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harbin, Rich Harberger, Fox 1427 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:24,559 Speaker 2: Sports Sunday. We are here in the tire IRAQ dot 1428 01:14:24,640 --> 01:14:29,040 Speaker 2: Com studios. So we're just talking about DeAndre Hopkins. Apparently 1429 01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:31,440 Speaker 2: he has agreed to a two year deal with the 1430 01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:36,240 Speaker 2: Tennessee Titans. Before we get to a team that lost 1431 01:14:36,280 --> 01:14:39,800 Speaker 2: out on his services, you talked about a Titans team 1432 01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:42,760 Speaker 2: that's looking to stretch defenses a little bit. 1433 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 3: Is d Hop still that kind of receiver? 1434 01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:48,040 Speaker 2: I mean, one thing I know about d Hop You 1435 01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:50,240 Speaker 2: throw the ball in his vicinity, He's going to catch 1436 01:14:50,280 --> 01:14:50,559 Speaker 2: the ball. 1437 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:50,800 Speaker 4: Right. 1438 01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:54,080 Speaker 2: He's a great possession receiver, as good as there is. 1439 01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:58,040 Speaker 2: But is he still a guy that will stretch a defense? 1440 01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:02,160 Speaker 4: Yes? Yeah, because like pac Man Jones on the Pat 1441 01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:07,439 Speaker 4: McAfee Show proved this week, you can't teach speed and 1442 01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 4: it doesn't go away. So pac Man Jones is forty 1443 01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:14,599 Speaker 4: and he ran a four to five on asphalt this week, 1444 01:15:15,479 --> 01:15:18,160 Speaker 4: Like it just doesn't go away. Like if you're a 1445 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:21,160 Speaker 4: fast twitch athlete and you stay in shape, you're a 1446 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 4: fast twitch athlete. Now, health becomes a concern later in 1447 01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:26,600 Speaker 4: your career, especially when you've had some run ins with 1448 01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:29,400 Speaker 4: injury like de hop has in the past, and also 1449 01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,200 Speaker 4: the fact that he got popped for a performance enhancing 1450 01:15:32,280 --> 01:15:36,400 Speaker 4: drug and served the suspension and so consecutive seasons he 1451 01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 4: hasn't had a lot of gameplay. There are concerns, but 1452 01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,760 Speaker 4: you can't teach speed, and you can't teach the ability 1453 01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 4: the hand eye coordination that is I mean paramount when 1454 01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:52,679 Speaker 4: you're leaping off the ground, running full speed while being 1455 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:56,799 Speaker 4: defended by one of the best defenders in the world 1456 01:15:56,880 --> 01:15:59,920 Speaker 4: doing what they do, and somehow being able to locate 1457 01:15:59,920 --> 01:16:02,200 Speaker 4: the ball secure it on your way to the ground, 1458 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,040 Speaker 4: And that's one of the things that has been a 1459 01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:08,160 Speaker 4: highlight of his career. Alongside all of that, he's a 1460 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 4: pretty damn good route runner too. He's a guy who 1461 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 4: when he breaks off his routes, when he gets into 1462 01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:18,439 Speaker 4: his stems and things, I mean, he can really sell 1463 01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:21,040 Speaker 4: whatever it is he's trying to set up and then 1464 01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:24,120 Speaker 4: in the break leave guys tumbling over themselves trying to 1465 01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 4: catch up with him. So, look, DeAndre Hopkins to me 1466 01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:31,120 Speaker 4: is one of those receivers when healthy still can perform 1467 01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:34,360 Speaker 4: at the highest possible level. It's just a matter of 1468 01:16:34,520 --> 01:16:36,640 Speaker 4: whether or not he can stay healthy enough for the 1469 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:37,760 Speaker 4: Titans this year. All right. 1470 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:40,200 Speaker 2: So we were talking a couple of weeks ago about 1471 01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:44,840 Speaker 2: the possibility of the New England Patriots going after both 1472 01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:47,400 Speaker 2: DeAndre Hopkins and Dalvin Cook. 1473 01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, so a d hop off the table. 1474 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:53,840 Speaker 2: The latest on Cook is he's most likely to end 1475 01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 2: up in the AFC East as either a member of 1476 01:16:57,360 --> 01:16:59,160 Speaker 2: the Dolphins or the Jets. 1477 01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:00,800 Speaker 4: Hmm. 1478 01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:05,160 Speaker 2: So if one of those two teams signs Dalvin Cook, 1479 01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:09,320 Speaker 2: imagine the Jets. Yeah, and you already have Brees Hall, 1480 01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:12,320 Speaker 2: who was off to a Rookie of the Year start 1481 01:17:12,479 --> 01:17:16,120 Speaker 2: before he had injuries, and then relinquish that offensive Rookie 1482 01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:18,839 Speaker 2: of the Year award to Wilson, his wide receiver, Garret. 1483 01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:20,400 Speaker 4: Wilson know how the Jets afford. 1484 01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 3: Him, but that I mean, that's what we're talking about. 1485 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:25,280 Speaker 3: And by the way, it's not as much money as. 1486 01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:29,400 Speaker 2: You may think, because we did assume that Dalvin Cook 1487 01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:31,360 Speaker 2: is looking for a boat low. But as time runs 1488 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:33,680 Speaker 2: out he may have to come to the realization, at 1489 01:17:33,760 --> 01:17:36,120 Speaker 2: least in twenty twenty three, that money may not be 1490 01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:39,719 Speaker 2: the same. But if New England strikes out on both 1491 01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 2: these guys, and if Dalvin Cook ends up with either 1492 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:46,000 Speaker 2: the Dolphins or the Jets, I think you would agree 1493 01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:49,000 Speaker 2: that that would put further distance from either one of 1494 01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:52,240 Speaker 2: those teams from where the Patriots stand, which at least 1495 01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:56,400 Speaker 2: roster wise right now, is dead last in the AFC East. 1496 01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 2: I mean, what are we looking at with your former team, 1497 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 2: the Patriots, if they can't land a proven skill guy 1498 01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:09,479 Speaker 2: to bolster that offense for Mac Jones, who's trying to 1499 01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:12,240 Speaker 2: bounce back after suffering the sophomore jinks. 1500 01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 4: Yeah. By the way, you said the Patriots, and it 1501 01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:17,200 Speaker 4: clicked my mind back to the DeAndre Hopkins. I'll get 1502 01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 4: the Dalvin Cook in a second. But because I remember 1503 01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,679 Speaker 4: when I was there, I played alongside an aging Randy 1504 01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:27,000 Speaker 4: Moss who, at thirty years of age in two thousand 1505 01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:29,519 Speaker 4: and seven, this is two years before the Patriots drafted me. 1506 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:32,960 Speaker 4: He had a fourteen hundred yard season with. 1507 01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:36,439 Speaker 2: The Pats, record number of touchdowns, record number twenty three touchdowns, 1508 01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:37,160 Speaker 2: some crazy number. 1509 01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was absolutely an insane season. 1510 01:18:39,520 --> 01:18:41,599 Speaker 3: I didn't work with Ocho Cinco though, No, it didn't. 1511 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:45,160 Speaker 4: But but look, there were other issues there. Yeah, and 1512 01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:47,360 Speaker 4: you know, I think the playbook proved to be a 1513 01:18:47,439 --> 01:18:51,599 Speaker 4: challenge there. Devonte Adams last season fifteen hundred over fifteen 1514 01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:54,960 Speaker 4: hundred yards with the Raiders at age thirty one hundred 1515 01:18:55,000 --> 01:19:00,639 Speaker 4: receptions on the season, fourteen receiving touchdowns. Like my point 1516 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:03,280 Speaker 4: is with DeAndre Hopkins is if he's healthy, I think 1517 01:19:03,280 --> 01:19:06,040 Speaker 4: he can still obviously play in this league at a 1518 01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:09,720 Speaker 4: high level. Going to Dalvin Cook, Dalvin Cook is one 1519 01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:12,960 Speaker 4: of those players who has turned in thousand yard rushing 1520 01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 4: seasons for the past four straight years. I'm I'm not 1521 01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:23,120 Speaker 4: going to overinflate the value of a running back, but 1522 01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:26,559 Speaker 4: I will make an argument for his particular value. I 1523 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:30,360 Speaker 4: think that's where this conversation gets murky, like because a 1524 01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:33,559 Speaker 4: lot of people go, well, running backs are replaceable. That's true, 1525 01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:37,880 Speaker 4: most running backs are replaceable. There are some who aren't. 1526 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 4: Derrick Henry is irreplaceable. Like Derrick Henry is the heart 1527 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:47,559 Speaker 4: is the thumping heartbeat of that Titans offense. And when 1528 01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 4: he goes away, good luck Tennessee. You know, Dalvin Cook 1529 01:19:52,240 --> 01:19:56,960 Speaker 4: for years has been a offensive juggernaut for the Minnesota Vikings. 1530 01:19:57,479 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 4: We'll see if they can replace his production. There are 1531 01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:06,719 Speaker 4: teams that can benefit from having Dalvincook and they are 1532 01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:12,840 Speaker 4: I mean, I would say the drain is circling, and 1533 01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:15,320 Speaker 4: I see the Patriots as really the option that makes 1534 01:20:15,320 --> 01:20:15,960 Speaker 4: the most sense. 1535 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:17,439 Speaker 3: Well, we'll see. 1536 01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:20,320 Speaker 2: But right now, like I said, the hot tickets for 1537 01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:23,720 Speaker 2: a possible destination for Dalvin Cook are the Jets and 1538 01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:26,840 Speaker 2: the Dolphins. Speaking of those teams, one of them is 1539 01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:28,680 Speaker 2: going to be in full view of all of us. 1540 01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:30,800 Speaker 2: We'll talk about hard knocks and the Jets. This is 1541 01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:33,840 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday, having fun on us Sunday. That's what 1542 01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:37,720 Speaker 2: we do here on Fox Sports Sunday, broadcasting live from 1543 01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:40,040 Speaker 2: the tire rag dot com studios, tyrad dot com. 1544 01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:40,599 Speaker 3: We're Gonnalp. 1545 01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:43,760 Speaker 2: Get you there on matt Selection, fast Reshipping, free road 1546 01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:47,519 Speaker 2: haads A protection over ten thousand recommended and stallars tire 1547 01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:52,599 Speaker 2: rack dot com the way tire buying should be. So 1548 01:20:52,760 --> 01:20:58,360 Speaker 2: Alcaoraz wins Wimbledon. That's a big story today. But here's 1549 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:01,120 Speaker 2: where we are in the sport world. So we have 1550 01:21:01,320 --> 01:21:04,680 Speaker 2: like these little bits and pieces, like the Open Championship 1551 01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:08,280 Speaker 2: is coming up this week, Rich and you and I 1552 01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:12,960 Speaker 2: have interest in golf's major Golf championships, final major of 1553 01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:16,120 Speaker 2: the year. By the way, Rory McElroy birdie the final 1554 01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 2: two holes to what is it's the Scottish Open. I 1555 01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:22,559 Speaker 2: believe it is so maybe he's in a position to 1556 01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:26,080 Speaker 2: win out Open Championship and in his long drought. 1557 01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:30,040 Speaker 3: You got that right, Rich, Oh yeah, yeah. 1558 01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:34,280 Speaker 2: So but everything is basically filler until we get to 1559 01:21:34,320 --> 01:21:37,479 Speaker 2: the NFL. Like, you know, we just we sort of 1560 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:41,519 Speaker 2: like this month of July we're sort of void of 1561 01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:44,360 Speaker 2: I mean, like we were talking about the Dalvin Cook situation, 1562 01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:45,280 Speaker 2: de hopped. 1563 01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:45,760 Speaker 3: Getting a new deal. 1564 01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:48,400 Speaker 2: But we're going to get into the meat and potatoes 1565 01:21:48,560 --> 01:21:51,519 Speaker 2: very shortly here with the NFL season. And one of 1566 01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:55,360 Speaker 2: the reasons the NFL continues to lap the field in 1567 01:21:55,479 --> 01:21:59,679 Speaker 2: general interests in sports is they always find a way 1568 01:21:59,800 --> 01:22:04,400 Speaker 2: to have a story keep them in the news. And 1569 01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:08,280 Speaker 2: as we go into the twenty twenty three season, you 1570 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:12,680 Speaker 2: have a dream scenario with Aaron Rodgers joining the New 1571 01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:16,120 Speaker 2: York Jets. I mean it's like a dream because you 1572 01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:18,720 Speaker 2: have one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of 1573 01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:23,360 Speaker 2: the NFL playing in Titled Town, USA, Little Green Bay, Wisconsin, 1574 01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:27,639 Speaker 2: and now he's going to the Big Apple and it's 1575 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 2: the other New York team. You know, the Giants have 1576 01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:34,080 Speaker 2: had their day. They've won four Super Bowls, the Jets. 1577 01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:39,720 Speaker 3: Have won one, and their quarterback just turned eighty this year. 1578 01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 3: That would be Joe Namath. 1579 01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:45,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, so there are so much there are so many 1580 01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:48,559 Speaker 2: eyes on the Jets. I mean, they are without question, 1581 01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:51,760 Speaker 2: the must watch. 1582 01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:54,160 Speaker 3: Team as we go into this season. 1583 01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:56,920 Speaker 2: And now on top of that, I don't know how 1584 01:22:56,960 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 2: it finally happened, but you knew was going to happen, 1585 01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:04,599 Speaker 2: going to be on Hard Knocks, all right. So I 1586 01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 2: was talking yesterday to a former Jet about this. Now 1587 01:23:08,240 --> 01:23:10,880 Speaker 2: I'm going to talk to you about this. So let's 1588 01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:15,719 Speaker 2: say you're the producer of Hard Knocks and your job 1589 01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:19,040 Speaker 2: is to get as many eyeballs on the Hard Knocks 1590 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:23,640 Speaker 2: Jets series as humanly possible. What is your pitch to 1591 01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:27,479 Speaker 2: the Jets on how you want to produce this edition 1592 01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:32,439 Speaker 2: of Hard Knocks to get the most punch, the most 1593 01:23:32,680 --> 01:23:35,960 Speaker 2: value out of having the Jets on Hard Knocks. 1594 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 3: How do you approach the Jets with your pitch? 1595 01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:44,040 Speaker 4: Oh, you make it one hundred percent about the quarterbacks. 1596 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:47,559 Speaker 4: Ask your I mean you make it one hundred percent 1597 01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 4: about the quarterbacks. And I'll tell you why. Because Netflix 1598 01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:59,160 Speaker 4: just debuted their brand new series Quarterback. It is a 1599 01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:03,320 Speaker 4: focus on our cousins and Marcus Mariota and Patrick Mahomes. 1600 01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:06,439 Speaker 4: It is going to obviously do very well among sports fans, 1601 01:24:06,680 --> 01:24:10,200 Speaker 4: and then people who just like you know, realism documentaries, 1602 01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:13,320 Speaker 4: things like that, and you know the algorithm, Netflix is 1603 01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:15,479 Speaker 4: going to filter that to the top of your queue 1604 01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 4: until you click on it and give it a shot, 1605 01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:19,760 Speaker 4: and some people who may not even like football might 1606 01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:22,880 Speaker 4: get hooked. That was the same thought process with their 1607 01:24:24,400 --> 01:24:28,719 Speaker 4: golf docu series, their F one docu series. In fact, 1608 01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:32,639 Speaker 4: Netflix is responsible in some part with the F one 1609 01:24:32,720 --> 01:24:36,320 Speaker 4: Need for Speed getting a lot of American eyes paying 1610 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:37,920 Speaker 4: attention to F one racing. 1611 01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:40,960 Speaker 2: Yes, so, now, by the way, that was their only 1612 01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:43,880 Speaker 2: sports venture. Oh yeah, for a long time, that was 1613 01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:45,840 Speaker 2: it just formula one. I want to read a quote 1614 01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:48,000 Speaker 2: from Aaron Rodgers where you get your comment here. Yeah, 1615 01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:49,160 Speaker 2: so this was Thursday. 1616 01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:50,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, I heard this clip. 1617 01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:54,839 Speaker 2: So Rogers says, talking about them being on hard knocks. 1618 01:24:55,360 --> 01:24:57,240 Speaker 3: I understand the appeal with us. 1619 01:24:57,680 --> 01:24:59,720 Speaker 2: There's a lot of eyes on me, a lot of 1620 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:03,679 Speaker 2: eyes on our team, a lot of expectations for our squad. 1621 01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:07,880 Speaker 2: They forced it down our throat and we have to 1622 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:15,240 Speaker 2: deal with it. I don't know how cooperative, mom, I say, 1623 01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:15,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1624 01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:18,799 Speaker 3: I'm gonna guess that Aaron Rodgers is going to provide 1625 01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:23,840 Speaker 3: zero cooperation with this Hard Knocks venture. He may be 1626 01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 3: seen on Hard Knocks, but he's certainly not going to 1627 01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:30,400 Speaker 3: do anything to embellish for the cameras. 1628 01:25:30,520 --> 01:25:33,040 Speaker 4: Okay, hard Knocks. So going back to my point about 1629 01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:37,519 Speaker 4: making it about the quarterbacks, Yes, what they need to 1630 01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:40,720 Speaker 4: do is appeal to Aaron Rodgers. The producers need to 1631 01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:45,240 Speaker 4: be very careful with how they approach him, but they 1632 01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:47,479 Speaker 4: need to appeal to him. They need to talk about 1633 01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:51,320 Speaker 4: how listen like you know, you know, we all know 1634 01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:54,760 Speaker 4: this is a very talented team, but the missing piece 1635 01:25:54,840 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 4: last year was a quarterback. And so we're going to 1636 01:25:58,040 --> 01:26:01,639 Speaker 4: do our very best to highlight the other offensive players 1637 01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:05,080 Speaker 4: and defensive players who are going to be important to 1638 01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 4: create a path to the postseason and beyond. But you 1639 01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 4: are going to be a big focal point this year, 1640 01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:12,839 Speaker 4: and we just want to get that out in the open. 1641 01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:16,920 Speaker 4: We're going to, you know, try to spotlight not only 1642 01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:20,559 Speaker 4: what you're doing from a leadership standpoint with the starting 1643 01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:24,720 Speaker 4: offensive players, but also you helping along Zach Wilson and 1644 01:26:24,800 --> 01:26:27,760 Speaker 4: these other young quarterbacks. Tim Boyle obviously isn't young, but 1645 01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:32,240 Speaker 4: you know what it's going to what what a true 1646 01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:36,800 Speaker 4: culture changer at quarterback looks like in the NFL, and 1647 01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:39,320 Speaker 4: like you have to just appeal to him somehow, you 1648 01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 4: have to make you have to give him maybe the 1649 01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:46,000 Speaker 4: availability to talk about things other than football. If there's 1650 01:26:46,040 --> 01:26:49,960 Speaker 4: one thing that I've really realized about Aaron Rodgers that 1651 01:26:50,080 --> 01:26:52,960 Speaker 4: I didn't know about him, frankly before he started becoming 1652 01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:58,479 Speaker 4: more open minded or really open mouthed with the media, 1653 01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:02,320 Speaker 4: is the fact that he likes to talk about just 1654 01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:06,400 Speaker 4: about anything other than football exactly. So I would I 1655 01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 4: would try to explain to him, like, we're gonna give 1656 01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:11,479 Speaker 4: you an avenue to get word out about whatever you 1657 01:27:11,560 --> 01:27:14,639 Speaker 4: want to talk about. And I think that I think 1658 01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:18,280 Speaker 4: that Hard Knocks is a fun show and Lee of 1659 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:21,160 Speaker 4: Shreiber does a good job narrating it. 1660 01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:23,400 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers calls him the voice of God. 1661 01:27:23,600 --> 01:27:26,439 Speaker 4: He does, yeah, And I think that there's a lot 1662 01:27:26,479 --> 01:27:28,800 Speaker 4: of aspects of the show that worked a lot better 1663 01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:31,800 Speaker 4: twenty years ago, say, than it does now because of 1664 01:27:31,840 --> 01:27:33,960 Speaker 4: social media and because of the access we have to 1665 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:37,799 Speaker 4: these stars. But I do think there's still an avenue 1666 01:27:37,840 --> 01:27:40,479 Speaker 4: where you can make this exciting and interesting, especially this 1667 01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:42,880 Speaker 4: season with Aaron Rodgers there. And I think it's you 1668 01:27:43,040 --> 01:27:45,439 Speaker 4: need to make him the focal point, and you need 1669 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,439 Speaker 4: to find a way to make him the focal point. 1670 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 3: So how would you handle Zach Wilson. 1671 01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 2: I mean, this is another big part of the story, right, 1672 01:27:52,040 --> 01:27:53,920 Speaker 2: I mean, this guy was the second overall pick just 1673 01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:56,360 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. He came in with a 1674 01:27:56,360 --> 01:27:58,960 Speaker 2: lot of fanfare. You obviously saw him back in his 1675 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:02,639 Speaker 2: BYU day. He actually got off to remember his first 1676 01:28:02,680 --> 01:28:07,479 Speaker 2: training camp. He was turning heads like, wow, this kid 1677 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:11,160 Speaker 2: has something special and then it just completely unraveled. 1678 01:28:11,160 --> 01:28:12,679 Speaker 3: But he's still there. 1679 01:28:13,680 --> 01:28:16,439 Speaker 2: He's been politically correct by saying, yeah, this is a 1680 01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:19,439 Speaker 2: go to opportunity for me to learn from one of 1681 01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 2: the all time greats. I mean, I don't know what 1682 01:28:21,439 --> 01:28:24,559 Speaker 2: his real mindset is right now, but I think there's 1683 01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:25,679 Speaker 2: a story there, right. 1684 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:29,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, and that's the reason why I say the quarterbacks, Yeah, 1685 01:28:29,320 --> 01:28:34,679 Speaker 4: just Rogers. But Zach Wilson is an infinitely interesting person 1686 01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:38,840 Speaker 4: in this conversation because this is somebody who came in 1687 01:28:38,880 --> 01:28:41,439 Speaker 4: with the number two overall pick to the Jets, was 1688 01:28:41,479 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 4: supposed to be for the Jets with Aaron Rodgers, is 1689 01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:48,200 Speaker 4: going to be they hope this season. He was supposed 1690 01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:50,519 Speaker 4: to be a culture changing quarterback. He was supposed to 1691 01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:53,840 Speaker 4: be Joe Namath. He was supposed to be the guy 1692 01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:56,639 Speaker 4: to win them a super Bowl with this young cast 1693 01:28:57,280 --> 01:29:01,840 Speaker 4: of super talented players didn't pan out. Can't build around 1694 01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:04,000 Speaker 4: a quarterback who can't play in this league, and Zach 1695 01:29:04,040 --> 01:29:07,760 Speaker 4: Wilson can't play in this league, not yet, you know. 1696 01:29:07,960 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 4: So it's going to be very interesting how they handle 1697 01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:17,320 Speaker 4: that storyline again. Making the quarterbacks the focus you have 1698 01:29:17,439 --> 01:29:22,160 Speaker 4: to do right by Rogers, So I don't think it 1699 01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:26,680 Speaker 4: would benefit them at all to try to, you know, 1700 01:29:26,760 --> 01:29:29,880 Speaker 4: create a rift, you know, you know, I mean, I'm 1701 01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:32,960 Speaker 4: not saying you sugarcoat anything with Zach Wilson, but you know, 1702 01:29:34,240 --> 01:29:38,080 Speaker 4: maybe maybe try to make this the focus of this show, 1703 01:29:39,720 --> 01:29:42,320 Speaker 4: the fact that he's learning so much from Rogers and 1704 01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:45,880 Speaker 4: highlighting that. Now, if there is jealousy there, if there 1705 01:29:45,960 --> 01:29:50,200 Speaker 4: is anger there, if there is animis there, it will 1706 01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:54,559 Speaker 4: probably benefit Hard Knocks. It'll probably benefit HBO because they 1707 01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:58,479 Speaker 4: may be able to catch that on film. But I again, 1708 01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:02,479 Speaker 4: I don't know. I mean, Zach Wilson, I think it 1709 01:30:02,520 --> 01:30:04,559 Speaker 4: would serve him extremely well. And I think this is 1710 01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 4: probably what he's going to do with this time that 1711 01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:10,519 Speaker 4: he has Aaron Rodgers as a mentor to you know, 1712 01:30:11,640 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 4: listen and learn and try to improve his game because 1713 01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:18,639 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers has an expiration date on him and at 1714 01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:22,600 Speaker 4: sometime in the near future that his NFL career is 1715 01:30:22,640 --> 01:30:25,000 Speaker 4: going to end. And if Zach Wilson proves to be 1716 01:30:25,720 --> 01:30:29,679 Speaker 4: you know, competent in a backup role, maybe he still 1717 01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:32,320 Speaker 4: can stick around in New York and replace Aaron after 1718 01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:32,880 Speaker 4: he leaves. 1719 01:30:33,200 --> 01:30:37,320 Speaker 3: Quinnon Williams, who just sign that monster contract ninety six 1720 01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:40,519 Speaker 3: million dollars deal with the Jets, one of the great 1721 01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:43,160 Speaker 3: defensive linemen in this league. He was up with up 1722 01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:43,920 Speaker 3: on game right. 1723 01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:46,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is what he had to say, some 1724 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:51,800 Speaker 2: interesting stuff about Zach Wilson and his early relationship with 1725 01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:52,720 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. 1726 01:30:53,240 --> 01:30:56,560 Speaker 11: Oh, Man, I haven't been update to see Zack or 1727 01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:58,519 Speaker 11: none like that they did, but I have counted on 1728 01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:00,479 Speaker 11: him and stuff like that. He's in great man. He's 1729 01:31:00,520 --> 01:31:03,160 Speaker 11: a phenomenon quarterback or phenomen the football player. And it's 1730 01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:05,680 Speaker 11: like I told him, he's a great opportunity for all 1731 01:31:05,720 --> 01:31:08,720 Speaker 11: of us to learn from a great guy like Aaron Rodgers. Man, 1732 01:31:08,720 --> 01:31:11,880 Speaker 11: a great guy who can take out all our games 1733 01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:14,920 Speaker 11: for the next level, not only does Zack all right. 1734 01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:17,720 Speaker 2: So Quinn Williams confident that the whole team is going 1735 01:31:17,760 --> 01:31:19,840 Speaker 2: to benefit. Coming up on the other side, I want 1736 01:31:19,880 --> 01:31:22,120 Speaker 2: to go a little step further with Aaron Rodgers though, 1737 01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:27,360 Speaker 2: and exactly what the Jets are getting with a quarterback 1738 01:31:27,400 --> 01:31:30,639 Speaker 2: that again now with the hard knocks addition, Let's face it, 1739 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:34,120 Speaker 2: everyone wants to see what Aaron Rodgers is going to 1740 01:31:34,200 --> 01:31:36,200 Speaker 2: do with the Jets this season. We got a little 1741 01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:40,120 Speaker 2: sneak peek. This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harvin and 1742 01:31:40,760 --> 01:31:44,280 Speaker 2: rich Armburger, Fox Sports Sunday. We are live from the 1743 01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:51,679 Speaker 2: tire rack dot Com studios. So yesterday, and I mentioned 1744 01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:54,120 Speaker 2: this at the top of the show, I'm making history 1745 01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:58,360 Speaker 2: this weekend. I am the first sports talk show host 1746 01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:03,599 Speaker 2: ever to host shows and consecutive days with two different 1747 01:32:03,640 --> 01:32:07,040 Speaker 2: members of the twenty twelve Arizona Cardinals. 1748 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:09,360 Speaker 3: I looked it up. I am the first ever to 1749 01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:12,679 Speaker 3: do that. Yes, and I don't think it will ever 1750 01:32:12,840 --> 01:32:14,080 Speaker 3: be duplicated again. 1751 01:32:14,960 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 2: Well there you go. Well thoughts they get too fad. 1752 01:32:17,160 --> 01:32:19,960 Speaker 2: I mean Carrie, Carrie was actually coming up. I believe 1753 01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:21,720 Speaker 2: after this show today he's going to be on with 1754 01:32:21,720 --> 01:32:25,160 Speaker 2: Brian Knows. So car Carry Rhoades was with me yesterday, 1755 01:32:25,240 --> 01:32:27,880 Speaker 2: Rich and he began his career with. 1756 01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:28,639 Speaker 3: The New York Jets. 1757 01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:33,839 Speaker 2: Yes, and he pointed out the parallels of what's happening 1758 01:32:33,840 --> 01:32:37,680 Speaker 2: with the Jets in twenty twenty three are almost identical 1759 01:32:37,720 --> 01:32:39,200 Speaker 2: to what happened fifteen years ago. 1760 01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:40,200 Speaker 3: In two thousand and eight. 1761 01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 2: The Jets were coming off a disappointing four and twelve season, 1762 01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:50,320 Speaker 2: and suddenly Brett Favre was their quarterback. And I asked him, so, 1763 01:32:50,479 --> 01:32:55,680 Speaker 2: what was that experience like? So let's remind everyone he 1764 01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:58,680 Speaker 2: had a young coach and Eric Mangini, who had been 1765 01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:03,120 Speaker 2: there the year before, disciple of Bill Belichick, and that 1766 01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:05,280 Speaker 2: Jets team that had been four and twelve the year 1767 01:33:05,360 --> 01:33:10,400 Speaker 2: before started eight and three with Brett Favart quarterback, a 1768 01:33:10,439 --> 01:33:15,120 Speaker 2: complete turnaround. Unfortunately, he lied about an elbow injury that 1769 01:33:15,720 --> 01:33:17,960 Speaker 2: well made him less than effective over the last five 1770 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:20,479 Speaker 2: games of the year. They ended up losing for their 1771 01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:23,280 Speaker 2: last five, finished nine and seven and missed the playoffs. 1772 01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:25,479 Speaker 2: And of course, the next season he was a member 1773 01:33:25,479 --> 01:33:30,040 Speaker 2: of the Minnesota Vikings. So Iowa Sam, who, by the way, 1774 01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:34,160 Speaker 2: is wearing a hog Eyes shirt today. 1775 01:33:34,240 --> 01:33:36,040 Speaker 3: But you'd love this shirt, you know, I. 1776 01:33:35,960 --> 01:33:38,679 Speaker 2: See Iowa and I'm thinking about Iowa Hawkeyes and it's. 1777 01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:42,840 Speaker 9: Hog eyes with a with a pig pig side silhouette 1778 01:33:42,840 --> 01:33:43,200 Speaker 9: of a pig. 1779 01:33:43,320 --> 01:33:46,600 Speaker 2: And he's like, well, that's that's like offensive line. And 1780 01:33:46,600 --> 01:33:48,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, are you calling rich a pig? Well, you 1781 01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:49,959 Speaker 2: know those those hog. 1782 01:33:49,800 --> 01:33:51,200 Speaker 4: Mollies, That's what he's doing. 1783 01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:53,600 Speaker 9: And it's also it's an ode to Iowa's you know, 1784 01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:56,720 Speaker 9: agriculture and raising hogs. And I saw it at this 1785 01:33:56,760 --> 01:33:59,080 Speaker 9: truck stop gift shop and I had to have it. 1786 01:33:59,080 --> 01:34:00,800 Speaker 2: It was like in so if you were to walk 1787 01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:03,439 Speaker 2: up to say hi to Kirk Farens and wearing the 1788 01:34:03,520 --> 01:34:06,360 Speaker 2: hog eyes, sure where you say, oh, that's cool or like. 1789 01:34:06,720 --> 01:34:10,120 Speaker 9: He definitely say that's cool. Yeah, I'm sure Kirk Farns 1790 01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:11,800 Speaker 9: has said that's cool like once in his life. 1791 01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:16,719 Speaker 2: Okay, So yesterday, the only thing that got Sam listening 1792 01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:20,160 Speaker 2: no on the normal He did pique my interest, yes 1793 01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:24,120 Speaker 2: was the fact that Carrie talked about the Brett Farv 1794 01:34:24,240 --> 01:34:27,840 Speaker 2: experience and that he he sort of separated himself from 1795 01:34:27,840 --> 01:34:31,799 Speaker 2: the rest of the team. Okay, in other words, listen 1796 01:34:31,880 --> 01:34:36,360 Speaker 2: to this. Brett Farv did not dress for the games 1797 01:34:36,840 --> 01:34:40,680 Speaker 2: in the locker room. In fact, he had a locker 1798 01:34:41,000 --> 01:34:43,720 Speaker 2: with his name on it, and he never used it. 1799 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:47,840 Speaker 2: So I'm like, well, where did he get dressed? He goes, 1800 01:34:47,960 --> 01:34:53,160 Speaker 2: I think he got dressed with the coaches. Now have 1801 01:34:53,240 --> 01:34:56,760 Speaker 2: you ever heard anything like that? So he maintained that 1802 01:34:56,840 --> 01:35:00,920 Speaker 2: even though Brett Farv had a locker in the Jets' 1803 01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:04,439 Speaker 2: locker room, he never ever used it. 1804 01:35:05,200 --> 01:35:09,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've never heard of that. Listen. I mean, there 1805 01:35:09,400 --> 01:35:11,920 Speaker 4: are certain players that I've played with over the course 1806 01:35:11,960 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 4: of my career that I saw very little of, you know, 1807 01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:19,599 Speaker 4: that seemed to spend a decent amount of time apart 1808 01:35:19,640 --> 01:35:22,120 Speaker 4: from the rest of the team, whether it be on 1809 01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:26,280 Speaker 4: the inside of the locker room or outside. But I've 1810 01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:30,599 Speaker 4: never heard of somebody not getting dressed with the team 1811 01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:34,880 Speaker 4: who is a teammate. That's a very unique story. 1812 01:35:35,040 --> 01:35:37,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's a unique story. But it brings up 1813 01:35:37,080 --> 01:35:39,559 Speaker 2: to me a bigger issue as far as Aaron Rodgers. 1814 01:35:39,600 --> 01:35:43,000 Speaker 2: I mean, Aaron Rodgers is again one of the greatest 1815 01:35:43,080 --> 01:35:44,280 Speaker 2: quarterbacks to ever play this. 1816 01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:45,719 Speaker 4: Game, sure, no question. 1817 01:35:45,960 --> 01:35:48,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he's also eccentric. 1818 01:35:48,520 --> 01:35:50,719 Speaker 2: I mean, I think we can all agree he does 1819 01:35:50,800 --> 01:35:54,160 Speaker 2: things his way, and he publicizes it. 1820 01:35:54,240 --> 01:35:55,120 Speaker 3: You know, he's not. 1821 01:35:55,120 --> 01:35:58,519 Speaker 2: Afraid to talk about that he has wound a little 1822 01:35:58,520 --> 01:36:02,439 Speaker 2: differently than everyone else. He's been very open about this 1823 01:36:02,520 --> 01:36:05,080 Speaker 2: whole Jets experience. He's been a big positive. We've been 1824 01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:08,479 Speaker 2: seeing him all over New York. Everything's good now, Yeah, 1825 01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:13,320 Speaker 2: but what if this young team gets off to a 1826 01:36:13,360 --> 01:36:17,799 Speaker 2: slow start, As again Carrie said yesterday, As the season 1827 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:21,519 Speaker 2: progress and things were not going as planned for Brett Favre, 1828 01:36:22,120 --> 01:36:24,400 Speaker 2: that distance between he and the rest of the team 1829 01:36:24,479 --> 01:36:27,040 Speaker 2: only grew to the point where, of course, after just 1830 01:36:27,080 --> 01:36:30,519 Speaker 2: one season, he was no longer a New York Jet. 1831 01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:36,519 Speaker 2: Do you think that Aaron Rodgers has the kind of 1832 01:36:36,600 --> 01:36:44,599 Speaker 2: personality that could deal with some kind of distraction or 1833 01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:48,880 Speaker 2: the lack of success. That is very possible, especially with 1834 01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:52,200 Speaker 2: a young team under the bright lights of New York City. 1835 01:36:52,439 --> 01:36:56,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I really do. I mean, look Aaron Rodgers. 1836 01:36:56,080 --> 01:36:58,160 Speaker 2: Because I asked him. I asked Carrie. I said, let's 1837 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:00,920 Speaker 2: just very quick. I said, let's say four games into 1838 01:37:00,920 --> 01:37:03,519 Speaker 2: the season. These are the standings in the AFC East. 1839 01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:06,760 Speaker 2: After four games, the Bills are four to zero, the 1840 01:37:06,800 --> 01:37:10,800 Speaker 2: Dolphins are three and one, the Patriots are two and two, 1841 01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,719 Speaker 2: and the Jets are one and three only four games 1842 01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:16,120 Speaker 2: into a seventeen game season. 1843 01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:20,840 Speaker 3: How will we New York media react to the question. 1844 01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:24,120 Speaker 4: I get it, Yeah, I get the question. Yeah, And 1845 01:37:24,200 --> 01:37:26,720 Speaker 4: this has been long discussed and I think it's overblown 1846 01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:30,960 Speaker 4: and I think it's silly. Aaron Rodgers is a man 1847 01:37:31,120 --> 01:37:33,920 Speaker 4: who's nearing forty years old. He has played at the 1848 01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:37,400 Speaker 4: highest level in this league his entire career. He has 1849 01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:42,160 Speaker 4: exposed himself willingly so to the national media over and 1850 01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:47,280 Speaker 4: over and over again. He's exposed himself willingly so to 1851 01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:51,680 Speaker 4: controversy over and over and over. Like you said, he's eccentric. 1852 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:54,120 Speaker 4: The only reason why we know that is because he's 1853 01:37:54,120 --> 01:37:57,599 Speaker 4: willing to share that with people. Yes, this estimation that 1854 01:37:57,680 --> 01:38:01,000 Speaker 4: because Aaron Rodgers spent the major already of his career 1855 01:38:02,200 --> 01:38:05,360 Speaker 4: in Green Bay, Wisconsin, is not going to be able 1856 01:38:05,360 --> 01:38:08,080 Speaker 4: to handle the pressure of playing New York it falls 1857 01:38:08,080 --> 01:38:12,080 Speaker 4: on deaf years with me, because he knows what pressure is. 1858 01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:15,559 Speaker 4: He's a pro, he's been doing this for a long time. 1859 01:38:16,280 --> 01:38:20,679 Speaker 4: It's I mean, it's borderline ridiculous to even assume that 1860 01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 4: that's going to be one of the reasons why if 1861 01:38:24,920 --> 01:38:29,559 Speaker 4: the New York Jets struggle, that they will because that's 1862 01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:32,080 Speaker 4: the least of their concerns. What they need to be 1863 01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:35,720 Speaker 4: concerned with is keeping the stars around him, the young 1864 01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:39,360 Speaker 4: stars or the veterans for that matter, healthy, playing as 1865 01:38:39,360 --> 01:38:41,519 Speaker 4: good of defense as they did last year, because that's 1866 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,400 Speaker 4: one of the things the Green Bay Packers really struggled 1867 01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:47,640 Speaker 4: with at times, is their defense giving away games. And 1868 01:38:47,680 --> 01:38:50,680 Speaker 4: that'll help. And if he's playing on a team with 1869 01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 4: the top five defense, and he inarguably has weapons around 1870 01:38:54,240 --> 01:38:58,360 Speaker 4: him offensively, unless his play falls off a damn cliff, 1871 01:38:58,760 --> 01:39:01,519 Speaker 4: the New York Jets are going to be That's fine. Now, Yeah, 1872 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:04,360 Speaker 4: if they start out, say they lose a couple of 1873 01:39:04,360 --> 01:39:07,800 Speaker 4: close ones, and they start out behind the eight ball 1874 01:39:07,840 --> 01:39:12,800 Speaker 4: a little bit, losing games. We've seen this before. This 1875 01:39:12,920 --> 01:39:15,960 Speaker 4: is this is my problem with this question altogether, Steve, Like, 1876 01:39:16,040 --> 01:39:19,680 Speaker 4: do you really think that Aaron Rodgers is going to 1877 01:39:19,840 --> 01:39:21,799 Speaker 4: fall to pieces? 1878 01:39:20,880 --> 01:39:24,040 Speaker 3: Because I know he'll say you about seven. 1879 01:39:24,160 --> 01:39:26,800 Speaker 2: Well again, and let's look at the beginning of their schedule, right, 1880 01:39:26,880 --> 01:39:28,720 Speaker 2: so they're the good news is three of their first 1881 01:39:28,760 --> 01:39:32,000 Speaker 2: four games are at home. But answer that question, well, 1882 01:39:32,560 --> 01:39:35,200 Speaker 2: I remember, no sweat, We've heard him before. You're right, 1883 01:39:35,240 --> 01:39:38,240 Speaker 2: they've gotten off to you know, slow starts in Green Bay. 1884 01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:41,000 Speaker 2: But it's not Green Bay. I get not Green Bay. 1885 01:39:41,000 --> 01:39:42,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you can talk about national media, but he's 1886 01:39:42,920 --> 01:39:45,280 Speaker 2: not he's not in Green Bay. He's not dealing with 1887 01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:48,080 Speaker 2: the New York media on a daily basic, right, But 1888 01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:51,559 Speaker 2: do you really think I don't know. Okay, I think, 1889 01:39:52,240 --> 01:39:54,200 Speaker 2: but here's the thing. But I mean, let's look at 1890 01:39:54,200 --> 01:39:56,559 Speaker 2: the Jets schedule. The interesting thing is, so they have 1891 01:39:57,320 --> 01:40:00,080 Speaker 2: they have six games before the bye, so they they 1892 01:40:00,080 --> 01:40:03,040 Speaker 2: have an early buy right, So they have six games, 1893 01:40:03,400 --> 01:40:05,840 Speaker 2: four of which are at home. But three of those 1894 01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:10,040 Speaker 2: home games are against the Bills, the Chiefs, and the Eagles, 1895 01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:13,840 Speaker 2: so you. 1896 01:40:13,800 --> 01:40:15,120 Speaker 3: Know you're hoping. 1897 01:40:15,160 --> 01:40:16,800 Speaker 2: And by the way, they also have a road game 1898 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:20,080 Speaker 2: against Dallas in Week two, so they've they've got some 1899 01:40:20,160 --> 01:40:22,920 Speaker 2: tough games, but especially at home, you know what I mean. 1900 01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:24,519 Speaker 3: I mean the little bed. 1901 01:40:24,560 --> 01:40:26,720 Speaker 4: But I could turn that right around. I could say, 1902 01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:28,960 Speaker 4: guess what, the Bills, the Chiefs, and the Eagles and 1903 01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:31,559 Speaker 4: the Cowboys all have a tough matchup with the Jets. 1904 01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:34,040 Speaker 3: Well, I'm sure they feel they do, so. 1905 01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:39,080 Speaker 4: I guess my point in here is this. I mean, yes, 1906 01:40:39,160 --> 01:40:42,439 Speaker 4: you're right, from a competitive standpoint, there are good teams 1907 01:40:42,439 --> 01:40:44,479 Speaker 4: in the AFC, and they have a bunch of them 1908 01:40:44,520 --> 01:40:48,439 Speaker 4: on their schedule. But I'm not for a second going 1909 01:40:48,479 --> 01:40:51,240 Speaker 4: to assume. And again you answered the question. You said, 1910 01:40:51,280 --> 01:40:52,599 Speaker 4: you don't know, you don't know. 1911 01:40:52,680 --> 01:40:54,560 Speaker 2: I don't know, and that's fine. You know why I 1912 01:40:54,640 --> 01:40:57,120 Speaker 2: don't know, And that's fine because I still don't know 1913 01:40:57,720 --> 01:41:00,600 Speaker 2: what kind of the leader Aaron Rodgers. I know what 1914 01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:03,599 Speaker 2: kind of quarterback he is. Yeah, but a great quarterback 1915 01:41:03,680 --> 01:41:06,679 Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily make you a great leader. 1916 01:41:06,880 --> 01:41:09,920 Speaker 4: Well, okay, but this is also a guy who, over 1917 01:41:09,960 --> 01:41:12,920 Speaker 4: the course of his career, has led multiple teams into 1918 01:41:12,960 --> 01:41:15,240 Speaker 4: the postseason, who's led multiple. 1919 01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:17,160 Speaker 3: Teams one Super Bowl appearance. 1920 01:41:16,960 --> 01:41:21,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, into success in the postseason, has won a Super Bowl, 1921 01:41:22,040 --> 01:41:25,080 Speaker 4: has won four MVPs. I mean, this isn't We're not 1922 01:41:25,160 --> 01:41:26,839 Speaker 4: talking about Zach Wilson. 1923 01:41:26,960 --> 01:41:29,240 Speaker 3: How has he only been to one Super Bowl? 1924 01:41:29,320 --> 01:41:33,000 Speaker 4: Well, look, there's a million, a myriad of reasons why 1925 01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:35,080 Speaker 4: a quarterback who's this talented. 1926 01:41:35,160 --> 01:41:36,960 Speaker 2: I mean, if he was on the ABAC side and 1927 01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:39,320 Speaker 2: had to go through Tom Brady all those years, that's 1928 01:41:39,360 --> 01:41:42,400 Speaker 2: one thing, like a Peyton Manning, but no, he was 1929 01:41:42,439 --> 01:41:43,120 Speaker 2: in the NFC. 1930 01:41:43,360 --> 01:41:48,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, but we're comparing like what he's done to say 1931 01:41:48,479 --> 01:41:51,120 Speaker 4: a Tom Brady because of his talent. But you have 1932 01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:54,880 Speaker 4: to also remember that Tom Brady was paired with inarguably 1933 01:41:54,920 --> 01:41:59,200 Speaker 4: a better coach than than Aaron Rodgers had in Green 1934 01:41:59,280 --> 01:42:02,360 Speaker 4: Bay through the majority of his career. Bill Belichick is 1935 01:42:02,400 --> 01:42:05,400 Speaker 4: one of the most creative and brilliant football minds on 1936 01:42:05,439 --> 01:42:07,640 Speaker 4: the planet. Are you going to give Mike McCarthy the 1937 01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:08,360 Speaker 4: same compliment? 1938 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:10,360 Speaker 3: You know, I'm not a McCarthy guy. 1939 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:14,000 Speaker 4: So my point is this and Patrick Mahomes. 1940 01:42:14,120 --> 01:42:16,720 Speaker 2: But then again, Belichick in his ten years without Tom 1941 01:42:16,720 --> 01:42:19,519 Speaker 2: Brady as his quarterbacks, had seven losing seasons, won one 1942 01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:20,200 Speaker 2: playoff game. 1943 01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:23,680 Speaker 4: But that's the pairing is everything. And we've said this. 1944 01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:26,800 Speaker 4: I've said this multiple times on this show. When you 1945 01:42:26,920 --> 01:42:29,800 Speaker 4: have a great quarterback show, you're going to show me 1946 01:42:29,840 --> 01:42:32,280 Speaker 4: a great coach most of the times. Most of the time. 1947 01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:33,760 Speaker 4: So I'm talking about somebody's going to go to the 1948 01:42:33,800 --> 01:42:35,320 Speaker 4: Hall of Fame most of the time they have a 1949 01:42:35,320 --> 01:42:38,880 Speaker 4: great coach behind him. Sometimes it's not the case. And 1950 01:42:39,080 --> 01:42:42,240 Speaker 4: I mean there are exceptions to every rule. You know. 1951 01:42:42,760 --> 01:42:45,080 Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford is an example of a guy who could 1952 01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:48,360 Speaker 4: go to the Hall of Fame, and to be perfectly 1953 01:42:48,400 --> 01:42:51,439 Speaker 4: honest with you, he outside of Sean McVay, outside of 1954 01:42:51,479 --> 01:42:55,160 Speaker 4: the twilight of his career, assuming he's getting close to retirement. 1955 01:42:55,760 --> 01:42:59,479 Speaker 4: I mean, he really hasn't had great coaching. So I 1956 01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:04,960 Speaker 4: look at this pairing of Aaron Rodgers and Salah as 1957 01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:06,679 Speaker 4: He's on his way out of the league and sala 1958 01:43:06,760 --> 01:43:08,479 Speaker 4: is just getting his feet wet as a head coach, 1959 01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:11,720 Speaker 4: and I'm intrigued. I think that this could be. This 1960 01:43:11,760 --> 01:43:14,760 Speaker 4: could work. You know, he also has Nathaniel Hackett as 1961 01:43:14,760 --> 01:43:17,680 Speaker 4: his offensive coordinator, somebody who he's comfortable with.

And Macrol always said 2125 01:50:57,640 --> 01:51:01,479 Speaker 2: because Macrol had such quick hands and it was devastating doubles. 2126 01:51:01,520 --> 01:51:05,799 Speaker 2: But most of these doubles players are, you know, players 2127 01:51:05,800 --> 01:51:08,599 Speaker 2: that obviously just couldn't cut it as singles players. 2128 01:51:08,640 --> 01:51:11,160 Speaker 3: So the next best thing, I'm trying to figure out 2129 01:51:11,200 --> 01:51:14,360 Speaker 3: why they still have doubles competition though, Like they're showing 2130 01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:17,680 Speaker 3: this doubles finals, you can literally count the people in 2131 01:51:17,760 --> 01:51:20,320 Speaker 3: the seats like there's like there's a couple of you there. 2132 01:51:21,520 --> 01:51:24,040 Speaker 3: I look at uh yeah, exactly. 2133 01:51:24,320 --> 01:51:28,439 Speaker 4: I look at it doubles tennis like I do the match. 2134 01:51:30,240 --> 01:51:32,760 Speaker 4: You know, I don't care who you're slamming together on 2135 01:51:32,800 --> 01:51:35,960 Speaker 4: the golf course unless it's a pandemic. I ain't watching. 2136 01:51:36,240 --> 01:51:38,360 Speaker 2: I mean, when the Williams sisters are playing doubles, that 2137 01:51:38,439 --> 01:51:40,439 Speaker 2: was cool. It was sisters out there. 2138 01:51:40,520 --> 01:51:43,599 Speaker 4: But I'll be honest with you, though I watched zero 2139 01:51:43,680 --> 01:51:45,560 Speaker 4: minutes of them playing doubles together. 2140 01:51:45,800 --> 01:51:49,040 Speaker 3: Have no recall other than they would say they won 2141 01:51:49,120 --> 01:51:50,920 Speaker 3: and they show him holding And by the way, the 2142 01:51:50,960 --> 01:51:53,720 Speaker 3: trophies are the doubles are like these old mini trophies. 2143 01:51:54,000 --> 01:52:01,400 Speaker 4: Like it's like, I mean, like they're there, they're are again. 2144 01:52:02,320 --> 01:52:07,360 Speaker 4: Like for example, yeah, cricket is really really popular elsewhere 2145 01:52:07,400 --> 01:52:09,960 Speaker 4: in the world, big time, big right. Rugby I mean 2146 01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:14,559 Speaker 4: is enormous, enormous in different areas of the world. Field 2147 01:52:14,600 --> 01:52:20,200 Speaker 4: hockey is one of the biggest sports on the planet. Badminton, badminton. 2148 01:52:21,160 --> 01:52:25,240 Speaker 4: There are just certain sports that don't necessarily resonate with 2149 01:52:25,280 --> 01:52:26,240 Speaker 4: the American public. 2150 01:52:26,479 --> 01:52:28,559 Speaker 2: Well and the other thing, and we talked a little 2151 01:52:28,600 --> 01:52:30,920 Speaker 2: bit about this. In fact, I want to say, because 2152 01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:34,160 Speaker 2: coming up on the other side, Uh, the NBA, of course, 2153 01:52:34,320 --> 01:52:38,240 Speaker 2: is introducing the NBA Cup this season. 2154 01:52:40,520 --> 01:52:42,720 Speaker 3: How better it'd be one hell of a cup to 2155 01:52:42,760 --> 01:52:44,000 Speaker 3: get anybody's attention. 2156 01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:48,920 Speaker 2: The alternative is so blatantly obvious for the NBA. If 2157 01:52:48,920 --> 01:52:51,400 Speaker 2: you haven't figured it out, we'll figure it out for you. 2158 01:52:51,479 --> 01:52:55,160 Speaker 2: Coming up, this is Fox Sports Sunday Steve Hartman and 2159 01:52:55,800 --> 01:52:58,360 Speaker 2: Rich Harberg or Fox Sports Sunday. We are alive from 2160 01:52:58,360 --> 01:53:01,719 Speaker 2: the tire rack dot Com studios. Which were you aware 2161 01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:06,439 Speaker 2: that the Lakers this past season finished in the last place. 2162 01:53:08,960 --> 01:53:13,640 Speaker 2: Yeah alone, Yeah, because they play in the Pacific Division. 2163 01:53:13,960 --> 01:53:14,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2164 01:53:14,360 --> 01:53:16,320 Speaker 2: See, a lot of people aren't even aware because we 2165 01:53:16,439 --> 01:53:18,880 Speaker 2: only look at the conference standings, you know, like the 2166 01:53:18,920 --> 01:53:23,080 Speaker 2: seedings in the conference. But they're actually divisions. Yeah, there's 2167 01:53:23,200 --> 01:53:26,799 Speaker 2: six divisions of five teams each. And this past season, 2168 01:53:26,920 --> 01:53:30,920 Speaker 2: the Kings won the Pacific Division, followed by the Suns, 2169 01:53:30,920 --> 01:53:34,640 Speaker 2: the Clippers, Warriors, and the Lakers finished last with a 2170 01:53:34,640 --> 01:53:37,080 Speaker 2: record of forty three and thirty nine. Also, did you 2171 01:53:37,200 --> 01:53:42,040 Speaker 2: know that the winner of the Pacific Division gets a trophy? 2172 01:53:43,600 --> 01:53:44,519 Speaker 4: I did not know that. 2173 01:53:44,800 --> 01:53:46,759 Speaker 3: Yes, in fact, so if. 2174 01:53:46,640 --> 01:53:50,080 Speaker 2: You win the Pacific Division, you get what is called 2175 01:53:50,120 --> 01:53:54,200 Speaker 2: the Chuck Cooper Trophy. Chuck Cooper is one of the 2176 01:53:54,240 --> 01:53:58,439 Speaker 2: first three African Americans to play in the NBA. Each 2177 01:53:58,640 --> 01:54:03,680 Speaker 2: of the divisions has a trophy presented to them, the 2178 01:54:03,800 --> 01:54:07,160 Speaker 2: Nat Clifton Award, the Wayne Embry or Ol Lloyd Willis, Reid, 2179 01:54:07,240 --> 01:54:13,000 Speaker 2: Sam Jones, and the Chuck Cooper Trophies. The NBA is suddenly, 2180 01:54:13,200 --> 01:54:18,360 Speaker 2: under the leadership of Adam Silver, become obsessed with trophies. 2181 01:54:18,840 --> 01:54:22,240 Speaker 2: They give away a lot of trophies now, so I know, 2182 01:54:22,600 --> 01:54:24,960 Speaker 2: people don't even know there are divisions anymore. But there's 2183 01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:30,720 Speaker 2: a division trophy, there's a conference championship trophy, all of 2184 01:54:30,800 --> 01:54:33,080 Speaker 2: which end up in a closet somewhere because no one 2185 01:54:33,200 --> 01:54:36,080 Speaker 2: is going to put that thing on display, right, So 2186 01:54:36,120 --> 01:54:37,680 Speaker 2: I'm trying to because I'm looking there's there are a 2187 01:54:37,680 --> 01:54:39,120 Speaker 2: lot of money spent on these trophies. 2188 01:54:39,160 --> 01:54:41,080 Speaker 3: They're actually pretty. I mean they have a similar look 2189 01:54:41,080 --> 01:54:43,480 Speaker 3: because you have a basketball on them. But I can't 2190 01:54:43,520 --> 01:54:47,560 Speaker 3: imagine what the NBA Cup was going. I think I 2191 01:54:47,600 --> 01:54:48,280 Speaker 3: have a cup. 2192 01:54:48,640 --> 01:54:52,680 Speaker 4: I mean, can it can it be like just like 2193 01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:56,240 Speaker 4: an actual cup, like a like a jockstrap? Can it? 2194 01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:56,840 Speaker 4: Can it be that? 2195 01:54:57,120 --> 01:55:01,000 Speaker 2: I I'm just trying to figure out because I again, 2196 01:55:01,040 --> 01:55:04,840 Speaker 2: people aren't even aware of these trophies, trophies that they 2197 01:55:04,880 --> 01:55:08,440 Speaker 2: hand out now for the division winners, and most people 2198 01:55:08,480 --> 01:55:10,480 Speaker 2: don't even know there are divisions in the NBA. They 2199 01:55:10,480 --> 01:55:15,480 Speaker 2: know about conferences. But I mean, this NBA Cup has 2200 01:55:15,520 --> 01:55:18,320 Speaker 2: got to be good, like huge. It's got to be 2201 01:55:18,320 --> 01:55:21,240 Speaker 2: bigger than the Larry O'Brien Trophy, which by the way, 2202 01:55:21,360 --> 01:55:24,000 Speaker 2: is not one of the most impressive championship trophies. 2203 01:55:24,520 --> 01:55:29,920 Speaker 4: No, and the Larry O'Brien along with the conference trophies, Yeah, 2204 01:55:29,960 --> 01:55:33,440 Speaker 4: they had that recent update and they name them things 2205 01:55:33,480 --> 01:55:34,160 Speaker 4: now and. 2206 01:55:34,160 --> 01:55:36,000 Speaker 2: Right, well, this is what they did with these divisions, 2207 01:55:36,080 --> 01:55:40,040 Speaker 2: Nat Clifton, Wayne Ambry, Earl, Lloyd Willis, Reed, Sam Jones, 2208 01:55:40,120 --> 01:55:41,200 Speaker 2: Chuck Cooper trophies. 2209 01:55:41,320 --> 01:55:43,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then they also named the MVP. 2210 01:55:43,960 --> 01:55:45,400 Speaker 3: All the different award trophies that. 2211 01:55:45,360 --> 01:55:47,960 Speaker 4: They all have like a basketball legend attached to it, 2212 01:55:48,000 --> 01:55:50,520 Speaker 4: which I get it. I mean it's and you. 2213 01:55:50,480 --> 01:55:54,840 Speaker 2: Have an MVP Award for conference finals, not only the 2214 01:55:54,920 --> 01:55:56,640 Speaker 2: NBA Finals, of course you do. 2215 01:55:56,840 --> 01:55:58,680 Speaker 3: But now you're gonna have the NBA Cup. 2216 01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:03,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. Look, then cup. It should be disposable. It should 2217 01:56:03,760 --> 01:56:06,040 Speaker 4: be one of those those coffee cups that you can 2218 01:56:06,080 --> 01:56:09,200 Speaker 4: throw right in the trash because I think that I 2219 01:56:09,360 --> 01:56:11,760 Speaker 4: personally believe the NBA Cup is not going to be 2220 01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:14,440 Speaker 4: for very long. I feel like this is going to 2221 01:56:14,480 --> 01:56:16,720 Speaker 4: be something that they do for a season. It's going 2222 01:56:16,800 --> 01:56:20,360 Speaker 4: to be a one off thing or maybe two seasons. 2223 01:56:20,400 --> 01:56:22,960 Speaker 4: Maybe they'll try to find another way to incentivize it, 2224 01:56:23,920 --> 01:56:26,600 Speaker 4: and then personally, I think it's gonna go away unless 2225 01:56:26,600 --> 01:56:30,520 Speaker 4: they can find a way to get star players to 2226 01:56:30,760 --> 01:56:33,920 Speaker 4: care about playing in this tournament and taking it seriously. 2227 01:56:34,800 --> 01:56:37,560 Speaker 4: It is not going to be It's not going to 2228 01:56:37,600 --> 01:56:40,560 Speaker 4: be anything anybody cares whether they win or not. And 2229 01:56:40,680 --> 01:56:44,200 Speaker 4: right now, the way they are incentivizing these players to 2230 01:56:44,840 --> 01:56:48,240 Speaker 4: play seriously in this is by promising them a bonus 2231 01:56:48,280 --> 01:56:53,959 Speaker 4: of five hundred thousand dollars. Two gentlemen like Jimmy Butler 2232 01:56:54,440 --> 01:56:58,520 Speaker 4: and Damian Lillard talking about Miami, Lebron James and Anthony 2233 01:56:58,560 --> 01:57:01,560 Speaker 4: Davis again, if you know, goes to Miami talking about 2234 01:57:01,960 --> 01:57:04,720 Speaker 4: Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, Lebron James and a D 2235 01:57:05,600 --> 01:57:09,840 Speaker 4: Kevin Durant and Devin Booker. I mean, are these are 2236 01:57:09,880 --> 01:57:13,760 Speaker 4: these guys, you know, James, Harden, Joelle and b Are 2237 01:57:13,760 --> 01:57:19,320 Speaker 4: these guys really worried about winning five hundred thousand bucks? Well, 2238 01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:20,640 Speaker 4: my point is, I mean. 2239 01:57:20,800 --> 01:57:23,320 Speaker 3: Whether they're worried about putting a few extra dollars in 2240 01:57:23,360 --> 01:57:27,080 Speaker 3: their bank account. The idea that this is going to 2241 01:57:27,160 --> 01:57:29,120 Speaker 3: be going, So the NBA Cup is going to go 2242 01:57:29,200 --> 01:57:33,240 Speaker 3: between November third and December ninth, right in the heart 2243 01:57:33,320 --> 01:57:34,520 Speaker 3: of the NFL season. 2244 01:57:34,640 --> 01:57:38,000 Speaker 4: That's when like the NFL season turns on for real, 2245 01:57:38,040 --> 01:57:38,360 Speaker 4: for real. 2246 01:57:38,560 --> 01:57:42,040 Speaker 2: And by the way, not to mention college football. Yeah sure, okay, 2247 01:57:42,080 --> 01:57:45,839 Speaker 2: so you're going into the meat of the schedule, certainly 2248 01:57:45,880 --> 01:57:48,040 Speaker 2: for the college football season, and very much for the 2249 01:57:48,160 --> 01:57:48,920 Speaker 2: NFL season. 2250 01:57:49,400 --> 01:57:52,840 Speaker 3: So and obviously you and I do shows throughout the 2251 01:57:52,880 --> 01:57:53,720 Speaker 3: football season. 2252 01:57:53,960 --> 01:57:58,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the idea that we would talk about anything 2253 01:57:59,160 --> 01:58:02,120 Speaker 2: other than the NFL even if there's not an NFL 2254 01:58:02,200 --> 01:58:04,480 Speaker 2: game that day. So they're trying to schedule games where 2255 01:58:04,520 --> 01:58:08,680 Speaker 2: there's not an NFL game, Like, I mean, the idea 2256 01:58:08,680 --> 01:58:11,760 Speaker 2: that we stop talking about NFL just because there's not 2257 01:58:11,920 --> 01:58:14,960 Speaker 2: an NFL game on a Wednesday, is it, sir? 2258 01:58:15,120 --> 01:58:17,640 Speaker 4: Beyond believe this is going to This is how this 2259 01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:20,280 Speaker 4: is going to be treated. I promise you it is 2260 01:58:20,320 --> 01:58:24,440 Speaker 4: going to be one of those things where you're either 2261 01:58:24,480 --> 01:58:27,600 Speaker 4: going to I mean, if you're going to even address it, 2262 01:58:27,720 --> 01:58:31,360 Speaker 4: you're going to discuss it as if it is as 2263 01:58:31,760 --> 01:58:34,280 Speaker 4: if it is any other regular season game. 2264 01:58:34,360 --> 01:58:37,240 Speaker 2: Well, they's all they've done is relabel regular season. That's 2265 01:58:37,280 --> 01:58:39,440 Speaker 2: just by saying they're a tournament game. 2266 01:58:39,600 --> 01:58:43,400 Speaker 4: So if something astounding happens in one of these regular 2267 01:58:43,480 --> 01:58:47,960 Speaker 4: season games, like an official miss, a blatant foul, you 2268 01:58:47,960 --> 01:58:51,520 Speaker 4: know there was an incident of some sort, this is 2269 01:58:51,560 --> 01:58:55,320 Speaker 4: going to fly completely under the radar on most people's 2270 01:58:55,720 --> 01:58:58,640 Speaker 4: on most people's radar, and you know, maybe in the 2271 01:58:58,680 --> 01:59:01,160 Speaker 4: markets where these teams play It'll get a little bit 2272 01:59:01,200 --> 01:59:03,600 Speaker 4: of publicity, especially if the team that they're focused on 2273 01:59:03,720 --> 01:59:05,440 Speaker 4: is making a run like out in Denver, if the 2274 01:59:05,480 --> 01:59:11,040 Speaker 4: Nuggets are advancing to the the NBA Cup Finals or 2275 01:59:11,080 --> 01:59:14,280 Speaker 4: something like that, yeh sure maybe. But outside of that, 2276 01:59:14,400 --> 01:59:16,560 Speaker 4: this is not gonna cut through. And then on top 2277 01:59:16,640 --> 01:59:18,280 Speaker 4: of it, the point that I was trying to make 2278 01:59:18,680 --> 01:59:20,480 Speaker 4: is the only way that this is gonna work is 2279 01:59:20,480 --> 01:59:24,320 Speaker 4: if the stars play, and the star players who are 2280 01:59:24,360 --> 01:59:27,240 Speaker 4: making the most money in the league, I don't think 2281 01:59:27,320 --> 01:59:30,360 Speaker 4: care if you're gonna offer them five hundred thousand dollars 2282 01:59:30,440 --> 01:59:31,920 Speaker 4: to get off their button play hard. 2283 01:59:32,040 --> 01:59:33,920 Speaker 3: That's only for the winning team. By the way, if 2284 01:59:33,960 --> 01:59:36,520 Speaker 3: you go out in the quarterfinals, they give you fifty. 2285 01:59:36,240 --> 01:59:38,480 Speaker 4: Thousand, right, It's it's trust me. 2286 01:59:38,680 --> 01:59:40,920 Speaker 2: This is a league that had sixty six players make 2287 01:59:40,960 --> 01:59:43,480 Speaker 2: at least twenty million in salary last year. 2288 01:59:43,560 --> 01:59:46,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not going to be important enough to enough 2289 01:59:46,320 --> 01:59:49,440 Speaker 4: of the players who matter the most for them to 2290 01:59:49,720 --> 01:59:55,280 Speaker 4: sacrifice resting an injury or taking load management days to 2291 01:59:55,400 --> 01:59:59,600 Speaker 4: go play in this fictitious, ridiculous look. 2292 02:00:00,800 --> 02:00:02,960 Speaker 2: If you want more eyeballs in the NBA, move this 2293 02:00:03,120 --> 02:00:07,920 Speaker 2: season back. Stop playing NBA games in November. That'll help 2294 02:00:08,680 --> 02:00:11,960 Speaker 2: stop right now as we head to the end of July, 2295 02:00:12,080 --> 02:00:14,440 Speaker 2: we should be talking about the NBA Finals. 2296 02:00:14,880 --> 02:00:17,560 Speaker 3: Move the season back, all right. 2297 02:00:17,440 --> 02:00:19,120 Speaker 2: We got a lot more news coming up here on 2298 02:00:19,160 --> 02:00:22,360 Speaker 2: a very busy Sunday in the sports world.

I sort of feel like the days 2309 02:00:53,280 --> 02:00:55,720 Speaker 4: are pretty full. I know a lot of people complain 2310 02:00:55,800 --> 02:00:58,600 Speaker 4: that there's nothing on the sports calendar, but you know 2311 02:00:58,680 --> 02:01:00,880 Speaker 4: there's news when you look for it. 2312 02:01:00,960 --> 02:01:03,040 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Oh, there's always news. 2313 02:01:03,320 --> 02:01:06,000 Speaker 4: It's just a matter of you know, being sort of 2314 02:01:07,960 --> 02:01:10,240 Speaker 4: paying attention. Like I'll give you an example of something 2315 02:01:10,240 --> 02:01:12,240 Speaker 4: that's sliding under the radar right now. And I have 2316 02:01:12,280 --> 02:01:16,000 Speaker 4: no idea if there's credence to this whatsoever. But on 2317 02:01:16,040 --> 02:01:20,200 Speaker 4: the heels of the DeAndre Hopkins signing to the Tennessee 2318 02:01:20,320 --> 02:01:25,200 Speaker 4: Titans two year deal. Matthew Judon, who's a member of 2319 02:01:25,240 --> 02:01:28,760 Speaker 4: the New England Patriots who is actively recruiting d Hop 2320 02:01:28,880 --> 02:01:33,680 Speaker 4: to join them, has quote tweeted Dove Kleman's tweet and 2321 02:01:33,720 --> 02:01:40,360 Speaker 4: said fake news. So I don't know, maybe Judon knows 2322 02:01:40,360 --> 02:01:44,040 Speaker 4: something we don't, or maybe Dove Cleman got the scoop 2323 02:01:44,120 --> 02:01:48,000 Speaker 4: or is re reiterating the news from Tom Pelisario, who 2324 02:01:48,040 --> 02:01:53,000 Speaker 4: I believe had it first, And is it possible they 2325 02:01:53,040 --> 02:01:57,000 Speaker 4: got something wrong. I guess it's possible. But also, DeAndre 2326 02:01:57,120 --> 02:02:01,080 Speaker 4: Hopkins has now since instagrammed out a fat photo of 2327 02:02:01,200 --> 02:02:04,600 Speaker 4: him and Derrick Henry together with just you know, the 2328 02:02:04,640 --> 02:02:08,080 Speaker 4: caption being dot dot dot right, So it feels like 2329 02:02:08,080 --> 02:02:09,720 Speaker 4: a done deal. But that what we've. 2330 02:02:09,520 --> 02:02:12,240 Speaker 2: Seen, guys, look at I I do not envy, and 2331 02:02:12,560 --> 02:02:17,200 Speaker 2: I understand this if you are an insider, yeah, for 2332 02:02:17,320 --> 02:02:19,760 Speaker 2: any sport. Yeah, And obviously we know all the elite 2333 02:02:19,840 --> 02:02:20,640 Speaker 2: names out there. 2334 02:02:22,120 --> 02:02:25,360 Speaker 4: We just spoke to one, right, JP Morosi. 2335 02:02:25,920 --> 02:02:31,000 Speaker 2: So, but if you're the pressure on these men and 2336 02:02:31,040 --> 02:02:36,120 Speaker 2: women that hold those positions to break stories. 2337 02:02:37,080 --> 02:02:37,680 Speaker 3: Is intense. 2338 02:02:38,120 --> 02:02:40,360 Speaker 2: I mean, the d Hop story, if you are the 2339 02:02:40,400 --> 02:02:43,600 Speaker 2: one that breaks it first, that's that's. 2340 02:02:43,400 --> 02:02:45,320 Speaker 3: A feather and cap, that's big time. 2341 02:02:46,160 --> 02:02:49,760 Speaker 2: But sometimes you gotta be careful because usually how they 2342 02:02:49,880 --> 02:02:52,880 Speaker 2: operate and I've known them all over the years, and 2343 02:02:52,920 --> 02:02:54,800 Speaker 2: again I would not want to be in that position 2344 02:02:55,000 --> 02:02:59,240 Speaker 2: because you it is so competitive and you've got insiders 2345 02:02:59,240 --> 02:03:04,280 Speaker 2: with an organized whether it's you know, executives or coaches 2346 02:03:04,520 --> 02:03:09,880 Speaker 2: or players or agents, and then you have to and 2347 02:03:09,920 --> 02:03:12,880 Speaker 2: it's a trade off, yeah, you know. So it's where 2348 02:03:13,560 --> 02:03:15,560 Speaker 2: and that's why sometimes. 2349 02:03:15,000 --> 02:03:19,600 Speaker 3: You see rumors that are floated out there specifically to 2350 02:03:19,720 --> 02:03:22,720 Speaker 3: try to force the hand of a team or teams 2351 02:03:22,800 --> 02:03:24,440 Speaker 3: to make a bit on a certain player. 2352 02:03:25,240 --> 02:03:28,920 Speaker 2: And where do those rumors come from? So it's a 2353 02:03:28,960 --> 02:03:31,640 Speaker 2: trade off. I'll give you information. You got to help 2354 02:03:31,680 --> 02:03:32,720 Speaker 2: me though, that's right. 2355 02:03:33,120 --> 02:03:35,840 Speaker 3: So it's their play it back. So we'll see how 2356 02:03:35,880 --> 02:03:37,480 Speaker 3: that all plays out. 2357 02:03:38,760 --> 02:03:40,560 Speaker 2: But you're right, I mean, there's always a lot of 2358 02:03:40,600 --> 02:03:45,400 Speaker 2: things going on throughout the entire year. You know, when 2359 02:03:45,440 --> 02:03:47,840 Speaker 2: we talk about the month of July, and I was 2360 02:03:47,880 --> 02:03:51,160 Speaker 2: just mentioning it before the break, it really is. I 2361 02:03:51,160 --> 02:03:53,240 Speaker 2: mean with baseball, like the next couple of weeks are 2362 02:03:53,240 --> 02:03:54,840 Speaker 2: going to be talking about potential trades. 2363 02:03:55,040 --> 02:03:57,040 Speaker 3: Obviously, the biggest name out there is Otani. Is he 2364 02:03:57,080 --> 02:03:58,240 Speaker 3: going to be trader or is he not going to 2365 02:03:58,240 --> 02:03:59,520 Speaker 3: be traded. I don't think he's going to be. 2366 02:03:59,480 --> 02:04:01,880 Speaker 2: Traded for all the reasons you've given, Rich, I mean, 2367 02:04:01,880 --> 02:04:04,480 Speaker 2: it just it just doesn't make sense. By the way, 2368 02:04:04,600 --> 02:04:08,520 Speaker 2: speaking of Otani for a second, here, I saw one insider. 2369 02:04:08,640 --> 02:04:10,400 Speaker 2: You know, I'm reading a lot of different people and 2370 02:04:10,440 --> 02:04:13,920 Speaker 2: their spin on the Otani situation, but this one made 2371 02:04:13,960 --> 02:04:18,400 Speaker 2: sense to me. So Tani has made it infinitely clear 2372 02:04:19,840 --> 02:04:23,000 Speaker 2: that whether he remains an Angel or goes to another team, 2373 02:04:23,360 --> 02:04:26,120 Speaker 2: he does not have any interest on playing on the 2374 02:04:26,120 --> 02:04:30,440 Speaker 2: East Coast none. So he wants to be on a 2375 02:04:30,480 --> 02:04:34,440 Speaker 2: West Coast team that he deems where he's not going 2376 02:04:34,480 --> 02:04:38,040 Speaker 2: to have a huge spotlight, which would eliminate a team 2377 02:04:38,080 --> 02:04:39,720 Speaker 2: called the Los Angeles Dodgers. 2378 02:04:40,000 --> 02:04:40,280 Speaker 4: Yep. 2379 02:04:41,320 --> 02:04:43,440 Speaker 2: So all of a sudden, if he doesn't return to 2380 02:04:43,480 --> 02:04:46,240 Speaker 2: the Angels, that really only leaves three other teams, not 2381 02:04:46,320 --> 02:04:50,360 Speaker 2: including Oakland. It would either be the Mariners, the Giants, 2382 02:04:51,400 --> 02:04:56,880 Speaker 2: or the Padres. Right and so, and we know this 2383 02:04:57,000 --> 02:04:59,400 Speaker 2: about the Padres because you and I Rich were there. 2384 02:04:59,560 --> 02:05:02,600 Speaker 2: You know, the whole Otani thing came down where he 2385 02:05:02,680 --> 02:05:05,080 Speaker 2: ends up signing with the Angels. Pottery's were in the 2386 02:05:05,080 --> 02:05:08,080 Speaker 2: mix all the way to the end. Aj Preller in fact, 2387 02:05:08,080 --> 02:05:12,080 Speaker 2: the general manager of the Padres. Then he learned some Japanese. Yeah, 2388 02:05:12,320 --> 02:05:16,800 Speaker 2: he actually you try to learn speaking Japanese to help 2389 02:05:16,840 --> 02:05:18,880 Speaker 2: with the negotiation, to try to bring him. At the 2390 02:05:18,920 --> 02:05:22,040 Speaker 2: last second, he ends up with the Angels. But if 2391 02:05:22,080 --> 02:05:25,520 Speaker 2: you talk about Otani situation, if that's the case, then 2392 02:05:26,360 --> 02:05:29,200 Speaker 2: like if the Yankees or the any team on the 2393 02:05:29,200 --> 02:05:31,240 Speaker 2: East Coast said, hey, we'd love to get Otani in 2394 02:05:31,280 --> 02:05:33,520 Speaker 2: for a couple of months, You're gonna cut your entire 2395 02:05:33,560 --> 02:05:37,320 Speaker 2: farm system for a guy that has zero intention of 2396 02:05:37,360 --> 02:05:38,000 Speaker 2: signing with you. 2397 02:05:38,760 --> 02:05:41,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, zero, Yeah, I mean, that's that's my. 2398 02:05:41,800 --> 02:05:42,880 Speaker 3: That doesn't make any sense. 2399 02:05:42,960 --> 02:05:45,600 Speaker 4: That's my problem with this whole theory that Otani is 2400 02:05:45,640 --> 02:05:49,080 Speaker 4: the hottest name on the trade block. He's not. First 2401 02:05:49,120 --> 02:05:52,760 Speaker 4: of all, the Angels over the next month, who are 2402 02:05:52,800 --> 02:05:54,919 Speaker 4: sitting at a game under. 2403 02:05:54,680 --> 02:05:58,040 Speaker 3: Five hundred without Mike Trout for two mos without. 2404 02:05:57,760 --> 02:06:00,680 Speaker 4: Mike Trout, Grannon have an opportunity to hear if they 2405 02:06:00,760 --> 02:06:05,839 Speaker 4: step up to potentially put together still something that resembles 2406 02:06:05,880 --> 02:06:09,720 Speaker 4: a good season and potentially a playoff run. Otani would 2407 02:06:09,760 --> 02:06:12,680 Speaker 4: be an important part of that. And also you would 2408 02:06:12,760 --> 02:06:14,920 Speaker 4: reap the benefits of keeping him on the other side 2409 02:06:14,920 --> 02:06:17,600 Speaker 4: of the trade deadline if this season, you know, turns 2410 02:06:17,600 --> 02:06:21,800 Speaker 4: in a positive direction. So I think there's motivation there 2411 02:06:21,840 --> 02:06:27,240 Speaker 4: for the Angels to play well. Obviously, there's motivation for 2412 02:06:27,680 --> 02:06:30,840 Speaker 4: the organization to try to get something for Otani if 2413 02:06:30,840 --> 02:06:34,320 Speaker 4: things go really poorly. But again, I think their biggest 2414 02:06:34,320 --> 02:06:37,680 Speaker 4: issue is going to be I think the biggest issue 2415 02:06:37,960 --> 02:06:42,600 Speaker 4: is that the hall that any team willing to part 2416 02:06:42,640 --> 02:06:45,720 Speaker 4: ways with to get Otani is going to be so 2417 02:06:46,120 --> 02:06:50,640 Speaker 4: crippling to that organization where he goes to, unless Otani 2418 02:06:50,680 --> 02:06:51,640 Speaker 4: elects to stay there. 2419 02:06:51,920 --> 02:06:52,880 Speaker 3: Okay, let me. 2420 02:06:52,960 --> 02:06:55,600 Speaker 4: So, so name a team right now who would trade 2421 02:06:55,600 --> 02:06:57,920 Speaker 4: for Otani who would be able to retain him long 2422 02:06:58,040 --> 02:07:00,840 Speaker 4: term based on I'm going to give you about otandres. 2423 02:07:01,640 --> 02:07:04,240 Speaker 2: Think about the Padres for second here. So you're the 2424 02:07:04,280 --> 02:07:07,560 Speaker 2: Angels and you want to haul in return. Well, I 2425 02:07:07,640 --> 02:07:09,080 Speaker 2: got a lot of talent on this team. 2426 02:07:09,160 --> 02:07:11,560 Speaker 4: No, no, no, the Padres don't have enough in their 2427 02:07:11,560 --> 02:07:16,160 Speaker 4: farm system. Would you could trade Tatis? I don't know, man, 2428 02:07:16,320 --> 02:07:18,440 Speaker 4: you don't know. I don't think the fan base. I 2429 02:07:18,880 --> 02:07:20,800 Speaker 4: think if you're the Padres. 2430 02:07:20,400 --> 02:07:22,720 Speaker 3: I don't think anybody in the Padres would miss Tatis. 2431 02:07:23,040 --> 02:07:27,000 Speaker 4: I think that I'm not saying the Padres because if if, 2432 02:07:27,320 --> 02:07:30,040 Speaker 4: if you could get the type of ballplayer that Otani 2433 02:07:30,200 --> 02:07:34,360 Speaker 4: is and trade away Fernando Tatis Junior so as well. 2434 02:07:35,560 --> 02:07:36,480 Speaker 4: But that's my point. 2435 02:07:36,600 --> 02:07:40,720 Speaker 3: You're going to snell Okay, No, I mean, look at it. 2436 02:07:40,720 --> 02:07:43,080 Speaker 2: It's going to be a botload, right, and he's only 2437 02:07:43,120 --> 02:07:44,760 Speaker 2: going to go to a team where he could see 2438 02:07:44,760 --> 02:07:46,040 Speaker 2: a future with down the road. 2439 02:07:46,320 --> 02:07:49,080 Speaker 4: You're you're talking about all the pieces that he's gonna 2440 02:07:49,120 --> 02:07:51,440 Speaker 4: need around him right now at the major league level 2441 02:07:51,480 --> 02:07:52,760 Speaker 4: to continue having success. 2442 02:07:52,760 --> 02:07:54,880 Speaker 3: I don't know, those pieces aren't working very well. 2443 02:07:55,120 --> 02:07:58,200 Speaker 4: Soto is kind of a rental. We knew that. I mean, 2444 02:07:58,440 --> 02:07:59,960 Speaker 4: everybody knew that here's. 2445 02:07:59,640 --> 02:08:00,960 Speaker 3: One more on his deal after this. 2446 02:08:01,080 --> 02:08:02,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, but but you know it was a two 2447 02:08:02,840 --> 02:08:06,720 Speaker 4: year rental. Sure, everybody was aware of that. And I mean, 2448 02:08:06,800 --> 02:08:10,000 Speaker 4: unless the Padres are interested in resigning Soda after having 2449 02:08:10,040 --> 02:08:13,160 Speaker 4: some up and down but mostly up this season performances, 2450 02:08:14,960 --> 02:08:18,120 Speaker 4: we'll see, We'll see what the future holds. Fernando Tatis 2451 02:08:18,160 --> 02:08:21,080 Speaker 4: Junior is bedrock. He was selled to the fan base 2452 02:08:21,160 --> 02:08:24,480 Speaker 4: as somebody that the Padres are going to hold on 2453 02:08:24,560 --> 02:08:27,280 Speaker 4: to long term. Now, he did have the suspension which 2454 02:08:27,640 --> 02:08:30,720 Speaker 4: changed certain people's minds, but he's back in their good graces. 2455 02:08:31,040 --> 02:08:34,360 Speaker 4: The problem again is though, if you trade Soto Snell, 2456 02:08:35,000 --> 02:08:39,240 Speaker 4: you trade who else did you throw into that? Oh, Fernando, Yeah, 2457 02:08:39,280 --> 02:08:44,120 Speaker 4: to the Angels for Otani. You have stripped away the 2458 02:08:44,160 --> 02:08:47,840 Speaker 4: best hitter on the Padres this season. Who's Soto? The 2459 02:08:48,240 --> 02:08:51,520 Speaker 4: future of the Padres, which is Tatis, and the best pitcher, 2460 02:08:51,600 --> 02:08:54,000 Speaker 4: the ace of this staff right now in Blake Snell. 2461 02:08:54,160 --> 02:08:56,800 Speaker 3: You know who's a better hitter than Soto. That would 2462 02:08:56,800 --> 02:08:57,440 Speaker 3: be Otani. 2463 02:08:57,720 --> 02:09:00,480 Speaker 4: Well, there's no doubt about it. But again, you have 2464 02:09:00,560 --> 02:09:04,040 Speaker 4: a top heavy lineup in San Diego already. You're going 2465 02:09:04,040 --> 02:09:06,200 Speaker 4: to get rid of two of your best hitters and 2466 02:09:06,240 --> 02:09:09,120 Speaker 4: replace it with one. It doesn't make any sense. Again, 2467 02:09:09,240 --> 02:09:11,440 Speaker 4: this goes back to my original point. This is going 2468 02:09:11,440 --> 02:09:15,760 Speaker 4: back to my original point. Otani is untradable. Every time 2469 02:09:15,800 --> 02:09:18,960 Speaker 4: you come to me with a trade situation that seems 2470 02:09:19,000 --> 02:09:21,200 Speaker 4: to make sense to you or anybody else, it doesn't 2471 02:09:21,200 --> 02:09:23,360 Speaker 4: make sense to me, because again you're gonna have to 2472 02:09:23,400 --> 02:09:27,320 Speaker 4: give the Angels too much for to actually make sense. 2473 02:09:27,600 --> 02:09:30,080 Speaker 2: Well, do you know that, I don't know how many 2474 02:09:30,080 --> 02:09:33,160 Speaker 2: people pay attention to this war stat you know has 2475 02:09:33,200 --> 02:09:35,480 Speaker 2: the highest war right now in the Padres this season. 2476 02:09:36,600 --> 02:09:40,840 Speaker 4: The highest war I would assume would be Fernando. 2477 02:09:40,560 --> 02:09:44,960 Speaker 2: Fernando's second. Okay, also behind him are Soto and Manny 2478 02:09:45,040 --> 02:09:48,240 Speaker 2: and Snell and Muscove. They're all behind This guy is 2479 02:09:48,320 --> 02:09:50,960 Speaker 2: the number one war guy in the Podres this season. 2480 02:09:51,160 --> 02:09:55,040 Speaker 2: His name is Hassan Kim. Okay, Hassan Kim has the 2481 02:09:55,120 --> 02:09:57,680 Speaker 2: highest fielding war in all of Major League Baseball. 2482 02:09:57,760 --> 02:10:01,720 Speaker 4: Wait, you were just talking about fielding war or overall war. 2483 02:10:01,960 --> 02:10:04,440 Speaker 2: His war is at four point two. Fernando's at three 2484 02:10:04,480 --> 02:10:07,760 Speaker 2: point nine. So let's say you get rid of Fernando, 2485 02:10:07,840 --> 02:10:09,560 Speaker 2: you get rid of Soda, you get rid of Snell, 2486 02:10:09,680 --> 02:10:13,120 Speaker 2: you still have us On Kim, you have Machado, you 2487 02:10:13,200 --> 02:10:18,000 Speaker 2: have Muskrove, and now you just added Shoe. 2488 02:10:17,920 --> 02:10:22,000 Speaker 4: To the war stat doesn't talk about hitting with with with. 2489 02:10:22,000 --> 02:10:23,640 Speaker 3: The one stat is all inclusive. 2490 02:10:23,880 --> 02:10:27,520 Speaker 4: No, I understand that, But but the focus of like again, 2491 02:10:27,560 --> 02:10:30,240 Speaker 4: we're we're getting really into the weeds talking about the problem. 2492 02:10:30,280 --> 02:10:32,840 Speaker 3: But I'm trying to make a deal for. 2493 02:10:32,800 --> 02:10:36,120 Speaker 4: It's just look, it's this is too obscure, it's too 2494 02:10:36,120 --> 02:10:37,600 Speaker 4: out there. I want to get out of the weeds, 2495 02:10:37,600 --> 02:10:40,400 Speaker 4: and I want to talk about this in more general terms. Okay, 2496 02:10:41,040 --> 02:10:45,040 Speaker 4: the the because look, most of America listening to this conversation, 2497 02:10:45,640 --> 02:10:49,680 Speaker 4: who cares about Otani? Which they should because Otani, in 2498 02:10:49,760 --> 02:10:52,360 Speaker 4: my estimation, is the best athlete on the planet right 2499 02:10:52,400 --> 02:10:55,480 Speaker 4: now the way he's dominating baseball. I I don't think 2500 02:10:55,520 --> 02:10:59,120 Speaker 4: he's getting enough respect for that. However, I don't think 2501 02:10:59,160 --> 02:11:02,960 Speaker 4: he's a tradable candidate because even what you just outlined, 2502 02:11:03,120 --> 02:11:06,720 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter what team you go to Orioles Cincinnati. 2503 02:11:06,760 --> 02:11:09,320 Speaker 4: I've heard, you know, teams that have a strong farm 2504 02:11:09,400 --> 02:11:12,760 Speaker 4: system or have a young team that's over performing right now. 2505 02:11:13,160 --> 02:11:15,240 Speaker 4: There's there's a couple of teams out there who may 2506 02:11:15,360 --> 02:11:19,080 Speaker 4: have may have room in the future to sign him 2507 02:11:19,120 --> 02:11:21,840 Speaker 4: if he likes the success that he's tasted. You know, 2508 02:11:21,920 --> 02:11:25,680 Speaker 4: with these teams, there's so few out there who either 2509 02:11:25,840 --> 02:11:29,320 Speaker 4: A can afford him or b can afford to trade 2510 02:11:29,360 --> 02:11:32,240 Speaker 4: for him, that it just doesn't make sense. I don't 2511 02:11:32,280 --> 02:11:34,440 Speaker 4: think he's tradable. And if he is, by the way, 2512 02:11:34,680 --> 02:11:36,480 Speaker 4: if they end up pulling the trigger and the Angels 2513 02:11:36,480 --> 02:11:40,400 Speaker 4: do trade him and they don't get an absolute massive 2514 02:11:40,480 --> 02:11:44,480 Speaker 4: haul in return like something that Dwarfs with the Padres 2515 02:11:44,520 --> 02:11:48,320 Speaker 4: traded for Juan Soto, for example, dwarfs Thattyo because he's 2516 02:11:48,360 --> 02:11:51,160 Speaker 4: also an ace pitcher. He's not just a brilliant hit 2517 02:11:51,240 --> 02:11:54,000 Speaker 4: or he's an ace pitcher. Well, then you are going 2518 02:11:54,040 --> 02:11:56,160 Speaker 4: to be the laughing stock of baseball. And I don't 2519 02:11:56,160 --> 02:11:57,440 Speaker 4: think with any general. 2520 02:11:57,240 --> 02:12:00,520 Speaker 2: Afterwardsdo tatis juniors under con track for. 2521 02:12:01,440 --> 02:12:03,000 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm just not happening, all right. 2522 02:12:03,080 --> 02:12:05,440 Speaker 2: So so your prediction is there is no tra I 2523 02:12:05,440 --> 02:12:07,840 Speaker 2: would agree with you, and you know I've been in 2524 02:12:07,880 --> 02:12:10,839 Speaker 2: lockstep with you, the idea that he is not trade 2525 02:12:10,880 --> 02:12:15,200 Speaker 2: a bull. No, But if you think about which teams 2526 02:12:15,840 --> 02:12:18,560 Speaker 2: most likely would he go to, I still think he's 2527 02:12:18,560 --> 02:12:22,320 Speaker 2: going to stay an angel. If I'm already Moreno, who decided, 2528 02:12:22,480 --> 02:12:24,320 Speaker 2: you know, to not sell the team? 2529 02:12:24,440 --> 02:12:27,600 Speaker 3: All I tell show he is very simple. Bring me 2530 02:12:27,720 --> 02:12:32,240 Speaker 3: all the offers, and whatever the offers are, we'll top it. 2531 02:12:32,440 --> 02:12:34,440 Speaker 4: Yeah. Period, I'll give you a dollar more. 2532 02:12:34,600 --> 02:12:36,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give whatever whatever. 2533 02:12:36,360 --> 02:12:39,360 Speaker 2: Anybody who's seven hundred million dollar deal, eight hundred million, 2534 02:12:39,960 --> 02:12:40,760 Speaker 2: we will top it. 2535 02:12:40,880 --> 02:12:43,240 Speaker 4: Show show me a text message, That's what I would say. 2536 02:12:43,280 --> 02:12:45,760 Speaker 4: If I'm already Moreno, Yeah, show me a text message. 2537 02:12:45,880 --> 02:12:48,320 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this, these general managers, and I'll 2538 02:12:48,320 --> 02:12:50,360 Speaker 4: give you a dollar more to stay here with the Angel. 2539 02:12:50,480 --> 02:12:57,120 Speaker 2: Does Otani strike you as someone that is just about 2540 02:12:57,120 --> 02:12:57,560 Speaker 2: the money? 2541 02:12:57,920 --> 02:13:03,400 Speaker 4: No, I agree Otani Otani feels Look, I don't know him, 2542 02:13:04,480 --> 02:13:07,600 Speaker 4: none of us do from a personal standpoint, but he 2543 02:13:07,640 --> 02:13:09,680 Speaker 4: feels like a principled person, That's. 2544 02:13:09,520 --> 02:13:11,880 Speaker 3: What I'm asking and also feel like a money guy. 2545 02:13:11,960 --> 02:13:14,560 Speaker 4: And also he kind of he's gonna make a lot 2546 02:13:14,560 --> 02:13:17,080 Speaker 4: of money either way, but he also kind of feels 2547 02:13:17,120 --> 02:13:21,000 Speaker 4: like a guy who maybe his loyalty and I'm not 2548 02:13:21,040 --> 02:13:23,320 Speaker 4: even saying this is naivety. I'm saying this is a 2549 02:13:23,320 --> 02:13:27,640 Speaker 4: good thing. His character and his loyalty may blind him 2550 02:13:27,680 --> 02:13:32,280 Speaker 4: to some of the greater problems in with the Angels 2551 02:13:32,320 --> 02:13:36,800 Speaker 4: franchise that they have really struggled to develop outside of 2552 02:13:36,880 --> 02:13:39,840 Speaker 4: Mike Trout real talent out of their farm system that 2553 02:13:39,880 --> 02:13:43,080 Speaker 4: has helped them in any meaningful way over the past decade. 2554 02:13:43,720 --> 02:13:47,320 Speaker 4: And as a result, they've they've really struggled. And then 2555 02:13:47,320 --> 02:13:51,120 Speaker 4: as also as a result, they've they've had a hard time. Well, 2556 02:13:51,120 --> 02:13:53,200 Speaker 4: I shouldn't say as a result, they've traded away some 2557 02:13:53,240 --> 02:13:58,160 Speaker 4: farm pieces for sure to bring in big name potential 2558 02:13:58,200 --> 02:14:00,640 Speaker 4: free agents and resign them, but they've missed a couple 2559 02:14:00,800 --> 02:14:05,320 Speaker 4: and it's really hindered them. So the Angels have some 2560 02:14:05,360 --> 02:14:07,960 Speaker 4: work to do if they're going to retain oh Tani. 2561 02:14:08,600 --> 02:14:10,480 Speaker 4: But I still put them in the lead seed in 2562 02:14:10,600 --> 02:14:13,040 Speaker 4: terms of the team that most likely ends up with 2563 02:14:13,120 --> 02:14:13,800 Speaker 4: him long term. 2564 02:14:13,880 --> 02:14:17,480 Speaker 3: I mean just hitting wise, he leads the majors in 2565 02:14:17,560 --> 02:14:24,760 Speaker 3: home runs, slugging percentage, ops, ops plus total bases. Those 2566 02:14:24,800 --> 02:14:28,600 Speaker 3: are just the offensive categories. Actually leads the majors in triples. 2567 02:14:29,720 --> 02:14:32,000 Speaker 2: I mean I again, And the fact that they sign 2568 02:14:32,080 --> 02:14:35,040 Speaker 2: them to a one year, thirty million dollar contract that 2569 02:14:35,120 --> 02:14:36,680 Speaker 2: might be the biggest bargain ever. 2570 02:14:37,480 --> 02:14:40,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, thirty million, it's pretty pretty subsidient. 2571 02:14:41,040 --> 02:14:44,480 Speaker 2: That's thirteen million less the Max Schuzer is making this year. 2572 02:14:45,560 --> 02:14:47,680 Speaker 2: And the last time I ever checked sures there's not 2573 02:14:47,760 --> 02:14:50,720 Speaker 2: a DH So there you go. All right, Coming up 2574 02:14:50,720 --> 02:14:53,040 Speaker 2: on the other side, we'll get back to some NFL news. 2575 02:14:53,040 --> 02:14:55,920 Speaker 3: Why not, because the NFL is where it's at. 2576 02:14:55,960 --> 02:14:58,800 Speaker 2: Do we have any latest rumors about these running backs 2577 02:14:58,800 --> 02:15:02,360 Speaker 2: and why the running back was physician? Maybe you should 2578 02:15:02,360 --> 02:15:06,080 Speaker 2: re examine even wanting to be a running back. Think 2579 02:15:06,120 --> 02:15:07,960 Speaker 2: about it. This is Fox Sports Sunday. 2580 02:15:08,280 --> 02:15:10,000 Speaker 3: I'd buy that for a dollar. 2581 02:15:10,240 --> 02:15:13,120 Speaker 2: Steve Harvey, Rich Torberger, Fox Sports Sunday. We are live 2582 02:15:13,160 --> 02:15:15,600 Speaker 2: from the Tirak dot com studios. All Right, we get 2583 02:15:15,600 --> 02:15:18,920 Speaker 2: a lot of social media activity during the show, Rich, 2584 02:15:19,600 --> 02:15:21,400 Speaker 2: I wanted to catch up on a few things that 2585 02:15:21,480 --> 02:15:25,640 Speaker 2: I've been reading here.

The country's 2700 02:20:09,920 --> 02:20:14,720 Speaker 2: ever won three consecutive World Cup. I feel like I've 2701 02:20:14,720 --> 02:20:16,920 Speaker 2: been watching the Women's World Cup all the way since 2702 02:20:17,160 --> 02:20:19,680 Speaker 2: ninety nine, you know, the famous victory at the Rose 2703 02:20:19,720 --> 02:20:22,080 Speaker 2: Bowl and everything else.

I think it's look, I 2708 02:20:30,720 --> 02:20:35,840 Speaker 4: have to admit more and more the international competitions haven't 2709 02:20:35,879 --> 02:20:38,959 Speaker 4: been I remember growing up the Olympics were really important 2710 02:20:39,000 --> 02:20:41,199 Speaker 4: to me. Yeah, they were on my house all the time, 2711 02:20:41,240 --> 02:20:45,920 Speaker 4: sure it, it was a fascination. I didn't grow up 2712 02:20:46,200 --> 02:20:48,760 Speaker 4: in a household that cared much about soccer, So the 2713 02:20:48,800 --> 02:20:51,520 Speaker 4: World Cup was never turned on television. I'm not even 2714 02:20:51,520 --> 02:20:55,160 Speaker 4: one hundred percent sure it was televised in the nineties. 2715 02:20:55,440 --> 02:20:56,240 Speaker 4: I couldn't tell you. 2716 02:20:56,240 --> 02:20:58,400 Speaker 3: It was because I watched it with my father in 2717 02:20:58,480 --> 02:20:59,760 Speaker 3: law in the nineties. 2718 02:21:00,000 --> 02:21:01,680 Speaker 4: Didn't tell you whether it was or wasn't. It just 2719 02:21:01,879 --> 02:21:07,520 Speaker 4: never ended up being on our television. Right. So, now, 2720 02:21:07,600 --> 02:21:11,119 Speaker 4: as an adult, I've watched I think every World Cup 2721 02:21:11,520 --> 02:21:15,520 Speaker 4: games that the US has played in. Yeah, and then 2722 02:21:15,600 --> 02:21:18,200 Speaker 4: also all of the Olympics, or I shouldn't say all 2723 02:21:18,240 --> 02:21:21,120 Speaker 4: of the Olympics, but I tune in each year. But 2724 02:21:21,200 --> 02:21:23,760 Speaker 4: I'm more and more disillusioned by it because there's there's 2725 02:21:24,400 --> 02:21:27,760 Speaker 4: this feeling that I have and maybe this will eventually 2726 02:21:28,120 --> 02:21:33,520 Speaker 4: matriculate its way into college athletics as well. Where this 2727 02:21:33,680 --> 02:21:37,720 Speaker 4: used to be important because it was amateurism. This used 2728 02:21:37,760 --> 02:21:40,119 Speaker 4: to be important because there was this at least maybe 2729 02:21:40,120 --> 02:21:43,600 Speaker 4: it was just a sold Maybe it was just a 2730 02:21:43,800 --> 02:21:48,520 Speaker 4: sold thought process that that you were watching all of 2731 02:21:48,560 --> 02:21:51,160 Speaker 4: these countries' best amateurs compete against each other. 2732 02:21:51,160 --> 02:21:53,640 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, we were amateurs. The other countries 2733 02:21:53,680 --> 02:21:57,280 Speaker 2: were not well, sure, especially the comedies. Communist countries were 2734 02:21:57,280 --> 02:21:58,480 Speaker 2: subsidizing their athletes. 2735 02:21:58,600 --> 02:22:01,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, the United States was was providing their amateurs. 2736 02:22:01,720 --> 02:22:01,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2737 02:22:02,120 --> 02:22:05,320 Speaker 4: And then you know, obviously the Dream Team changed that. 2738 02:22:05,680 --> 02:22:09,400 Speaker 4: And then obviously the marketability of these Olympics stars et cetera, 2739 02:22:09,440 --> 02:22:12,760 Speaker 4: et cetera. They're all professional athletes now, and so I 2740 02:22:12,760 --> 02:22:15,120 Speaker 4: don't know, it's diminished at something for me a little bit. 2741 02:22:15,560 --> 02:22:18,280 Speaker 4: And then on top of it, like to be perfectly 2742 02:22:18,320 --> 02:22:22,320 Speaker 4: frank with you, like the the failure of the men's 2743 02:22:22,360 --> 02:22:24,920 Speaker 4: team in the World Cup to have success on the 2744 02:22:24,920 --> 02:22:27,240 Speaker 4: world stage, right, I mean, I'm out. 2745 02:22:27,120 --> 02:22:29,560 Speaker 3: Well when we're talking about the ladies because they've had 2746 02:22:29,640 --> 02:22:31,520 Speaker 3: they dominated. Yeah, the World's Cup. 2747 02:22:31,640 --> 02:22:33,720 Speaker 4: That that has been the one that I'll stick through 2748 02:22:33,800 --> 02:22:38,040 Speaker 4: the most. But yeah, I mean again, even then, my 2749 02:22:38,040 --> 02:22:41,400 Speaker 4: my interest level was Wayne.

I'm 2772 02:23:48,640 --> 02:23:52,000 Speaker 4: not a year round Olympics fan. Yeah, and so I'm 2773 02:23:52,080 --> 02:23:54,960 Speaker 4: jumping in on storylines that have to be tall to 2774 02:23:55,000 --> 02:23:58,600 Speaker 4: me and taught to me, sure, like you know, in haste, 2775 02:23:58,680 --> 02:24:01,160 Speaker 4: like you know, like when I watch that NFL, Major 2776 02:24:01,240 --> 02:24:04,279 Speaker 4: League Baseball, Like I pay close attention to these sports 2777 02:24:04,320 --> 02:24:06,680 Speaker 4: on a daily basis. And not to say that the 2778 02:24:06,800 --> 02:24:10,320 Speaker 4: competitiveness of the women's side or the more frankly, the 2779 02:24:10,360 --> 02:24:14,960 Speaker 4: men's side in recent years getting better isn't interesting. It's 2780 02:24:15,040 --> 02:24:17,680 Speaker 4: just I just don't know these players, right. I might 2781 02:24:17,800 --> 02:24:20,520 Speaker 4: know one or two of them by name, and outside 2782 02:24:20,560 --> 02:24:23,440 Speaker 4: of that, it's just a bunch of anonymous guys or 2783 02:24:23,480 --> 02:24:27,600 Speaker 4: gals competing. So I don't know for me obvious, and 2784 02:24:27,640 --> 02:24:29,680 Speaker 4: I feel like I'm probably speaking for a lot of 2785 02:24:29,720 --> 02:24:34,600 Speaker 4: people in this country. The NBA, the MLB, and the 2786 02:24:34,720 --> 02:24:38,600 Speaker 4: NFL are far more interesting because I'm attached to the 2787 02:24:38,640 --> 02:24:42,200 Speaker 4: storylines of these players. As you know, the soap opera 2788 02:24:42,240 --> 02:24:44,400 Speaker 4: continues to play out over years and years and years. 2789 02:24:44,400 --> 02:24:45,760 Speaker 8: They're just more relatable to you. 2790 02:24:46,000 --> 02:24:49,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, exactly exactly, which I mean. That makes sense, and 2791 02:24:49,120 --> 02:24:51,640 Speaker 10: that can be with anything with any score, even if 2792 02:24:51,640 --> 02:24:54,199 Speaker 10: somebody doesn't follow a particular score. Here in the US, 2793 02:24:54,320 --> 02:24:56,480 Speaker 10: they're just more relatable, so you feel more connected. 2794 02:24:56,959 --> 02:24:59,959 Speaker 8: I get that. Let's check in on Major League based. 2795 02:25:00,200 --> 02:25:02,840 Speaker 10: A couple of games have wrapped up, like the Giants 2796 02:25:02,840 --> 02:25:05,199 Speaker 10: beating the Pirates eight to four. They scored five runs 2797 02:25:05,240 --> 02:25:08,040 Speaker 10: in the tenth inning to get this victory. The White 2798 02:25:08,080 --> 02:25:10,840 Speaker 10: Sox did hand the Braves their second straight loss, and 2799 02:25:10,879 --> 02:25:13,800 Speaker 10: it was another dominant performance. Eight to one was the 2800 02:25:13,840 --> 02:25:16,600 Speaker 10: final score. Louise Robert Junior went four for five at 2801 02:25:16,600 --> 02:25:19,680 Speaker 10: the plate, a two run homer, three RBIs in the victory. 2802 02:25:19,920 --> 02:25:22,520 Speaker 10: The Orioles held on to beat the Marlins five to four, 2803 02:25:22,560 --> 02:25:25,200 Speaker 10: but the Marlins scored four runs in the bottom of 2804 02:25:25,280 --> 02:25:28,280 Speaker 10: the ninth inning to make it interesting. But we got 2805 02:25:28,280 --> 02:25:31,120 Speaker 10: to check in on Luis Ariz. He went zero for 2806 02:25:31,360 --> 02:25:34,360 Speaker 10: five at the plate today, but he's still batting three eighty, 2807 02:25:34,760 --> 02:25:35,959 Speaker 10: which is still above. 2808 02:25:36,120 --> 02:25:37,400 Speaker 3: He's not hitting four hundred. 2809 02:25:37,480 --> 02:25:40,080 Speaker 10: Okay, he's not hitting but he's still three eight. 2810 02:25:40,200 --> 02:25:43,600 Speaker 8: Don't don't be poo pooing. We already said we don't 2811 02:25:43,680 --> 02:25:46,160 Speaker 8: like pot I kick that. 2812 02:25:46,840 --> 02:25:47,640 Speaker 4: Stop it with. 2813 02:25:49,879 --> 02:25:52,680 Speaker 8: Yes, no poo pooing anymore. 2814 02:25:52,840 --> 02:25:55,400 Speaker 4: You sound like an outboard motor on a boat when 2815 02:25:55,480 --> 02:26:01,720 Speaker 4: you try to roll your rs. 2816 02:26:01,720 --> 02:26:02,879 Speaker 8: That's good, that's good. 2817 02:26:03,160 --> 02:26:06,039 Speaker 10: The next best team in baseball is also losing. The 2818 02:26:06,160 --> 02:26:09,600 Speaker 10: Royals are dominating the Rays seven zero. They're about to 2819 02:26:09,600 --> 02:26:11,680 Speaker 10: start the bottom of the seventh inning. The Brewers and 2820 02:26:11,720 --> 02:26:14,080 Speaker 10: the Reds have been back and forth. Brewers back on top, 2821 02:26:14,120 --> 02:26:17,160 Speaker 10: four to three, bottom of the ninth inning in Cincinnati. 2822 02:26:17,200 --> 02:26:19,480 Speaker 10: The Reds are down to their final out. The Blue 2823 02:26:19,560 --> 02:26:21,920 Speaker 10: Jays holding onto their lead over the Diamondbacks at home 2824 02:26:22,000 --> 02:26:24,520 Speaker 10: seven to two. Top of the ninth inning. The Padres 2825 02:26:24,560 --> 02:26:26,200 Speaker 10: and the Phillies were on a rain delay for like 2826 02:26:26,280 --> 02:26:29,120 Speaker 10: last hour and a half two hours. Padres are officially 2827 02:26:29,120 --> 02:26:29,879 Speaker 10: on the scoreboard. 2828 02:26:29,879 --> 02:26:30,320 Speaker 8: One zero. 2829 02:26:30,480 --> 02:26:32,959 Speaker 10: Top of the first inning, Red Sox all over the 2830 02:26:33,000 --> 02:26:36,080 Speaker 10: Cubs eleven to one. Bottom of the eighth, Cardinals beating 2831 02:26:36,080 --> 02:26:37,280 Speaker 10: the Nationals eight to three. 2832 02:26:37,320 --> 02:26:38,600 Speaker 8: We're back on a rain delay. 2833 02:26:38,640 --> 02:26:41,240 Speaker 10: It's the bottom of the seventh inning, Guardians beating the 2834 02:26:41,320 --> 02:26:44,039 Speaker 10: Rangers three to two.

I'd agree with that 2846 02:27:14,720 --> 02:27:17,120 Speaker 10: he's basically got the best of all three worlds. 2847 02:27:17,320 --> 02:27:19,160 Speaker 8: I haven't played a player like him. 2848 02:27:19,200 --> 02:27:22,680 Speaker 3: Ever, that's some of the shots he was making today 2849 02:27:22,800 --> 02:27:26,320 Speaker 3: were stupid, unbelievable. 2850 02:27:27,400 --> 02:27:30,160 Speaker 10: Yeahs ridiculous. 2851 02:27:31,040 --> 02:27:35,520 Speaker 3: So I and Djokovic was excited for the kid, Yes. 2852 02:27:35,400 --> 02:27:40,200 Speaker 2: Yes, he genuinely excited to have a look at it. 2853 02:27:40,520 --> 02:27:43,680 Speaker 2: You know, if you're part of tennis history like a Djokovic, right, 2854 02:27:43,879 --> 02:27:46,920 Speaker 2: you're excited that there's another kid they keep it going. 2855 02:27:47,000 --> 02:27:49,960 Speaker 3: You know, Better's retired, Adull's got one more year. 2856 02:27:50,120 --> 02:27:50,200 Speaker 4: Ye. 2857 02:27:50,640 --> 02:27:53,120 Speaker 2: Obviously, Djokovic on the back end of his career and 2858 02:27:53,160 --> 02:27:56,360 Speaker 2: you want the sport to continue to go, right, So 2859 02:27:56,480 --> 02:27:57,959 Speaker 2: he's thrilled for sure. 2860 02:27:58,440 --> 02:28:01,720 Speaker 8: It is going. DeAndre Howlkins is going to Tennessee. 2861 02:28:01,760 --> 02:28:02,360 Speaker 4: Is that true? 2862 02:28:02,640 --> 02:28:03,600 Speaker 8: That's what they're saying. 2863 02:28:04,400 --> 02:28:07,480 Speaker 10: Apparently he's signing a two year deal twenty six million 2864 02:28:07,520 --> 02:28:09,760 Speaker 10: worth up to thirty two million with incentives with the 2865 02:28:09,800 --> 02:28:13,400 Speaker 10: Tennessee with the Tennessee Titans. So if he reaches ninety 2866 02:28:13,440 --> 02:28:17,320 Speaker 10: five catches, one thousand and fifty yards and ten touchdowns, 2867 02:28:17,480 --> 02:28:20,320 Speaker 10: he gets all the incentives. It's obviously broken down even more. 2868 02:28:20,360 --> 02:28:23,480 Speaker 10: But if he wants allston in fifty thousand and fifty. 2869 02:28:23,320 --> 02:28:25,359 Speaker 3: In a seventeen game season. 2870 02:28:25,080 --> 02:28:27,240 Speaker 8: Yes, ten touchdowns byty. 2871 02:28:26,800 --> 02:28:31,080 Speaker 3: Yards a game, he better hit that keep mill back 2872 02:28:31,080 --> 02:28:34,200 Speaker 3: to you, Gays, Hi, great stuff is always now. 2873 02:28:34,280 --> 02:28:37,000 Speaker 2: As I mentioned, I love listening to Rich on his 2874 02:28:37,120 --> 02:28:41,360 Speaker 2: Saturday show, And you were bringing up Austin Eckler. 2875 02:28:42,000 --> 02:28:42,240 Speaker 6: Yeah. 2876 02:28:42,480 --> 02:28:46,400 Speaker 2: So Austin Eckler the last two seasons for the Chargers 2877 02:28:46,520 --> 02:28:49,120 Speaker 2: has played every single game, let's just start right there, 2878 02:28:49,160 --> 02:28:52,440 Speaker 2: all right, thirty three straight games. In those thirty three games, 2879 02:28:52,440 --> 02:28:54,959 Speaker 2: he has scored thirty eight touchdowns. He has led the 2880 02:28:55,040 --> 02:28:58,760 Speaker 2: NFL and touchdowns scored each of the last two years. 2881 02:28:58,800 --> 02:29:02,040 Speaker 2: Two years ago was twenty. Last you're eighteen. So he's 2882 02:29:02,160 --> 02:29:06,039 Speaker 2: durable and productive. I mean, what more do you want 2883 02:29:06,040 --> 02:29:06,720 Speaker 2: out of a player? 2884 02:29:06,800 --> 02:29:06,959 Speaker 4: Right? 2885 02:29:07,040 --> 02:29:09,520 Speaker 2: I want a guy that's there to answer the bell 2886 02:29:09,879 --> 02:29:12,040 Speaker 2: and then when he's on the field to be productive. 2887 02:29:12,360 --> 02:29:17,000 Speaker 2: And Austin Eckler boom check, boom check. And he can't 2888 02:29:17,000 --> 02:29:19,600 Speaker 2: get any extra money, you know, a few incentives and 2889 02:29:19,640 --> 02:29:21,840 Speaker 2: everything else. And it just to me brings up the 2890 02:29:21,959 --> 02:29:24,840 Speaker 2: idea because it used to be Rich. If you're a 2891 02:29:24,959 --> 02:29:29,119 Speaker 2: running back, if you're good enough to be a running back, 2892 02:29:29,160 --> 02:29:32,360 Speaker 2: you could probably play almost any position out on the field. 2893 02:29:32,440 --> 02:29:33,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you could be a safety, you could be 2894 02:29:33,959 --> 02:29:37,200 Speaker 2: a corner, you could be a wide receiver. In some 2895 02:29:37,240 --> 02:29:39,599 Speaker 2: cases you might even be able to be a quarterback. 2896 02:29:41,080 --> 02:29:43,440 Speaker 2: Why would any want to be a running back if 2897 02:29:43,440 --> 02:29:46,320 Speaker 2: you know now that a Dalwn Cook who's had for sike. 2898 02:29:46,360 --> 02:29:49,080 Speaker 2: Because we were watching that quarterback show on Netflix. I 2899 02:29:49,160 --> 02:29:51,640 Speaker 2: was watching my son Garrett. He's like, because they're showing 2900 02:29:51,680 --> 02:29:54,960 Speaker 2: Kirk Cousin highlights and he's like, why would the Vikings 2901 02:29:55,000 --> 02:29:58,240 Speaker 2: get rid of Dalwn Cook? Another guy who by the way, 2902 02:29:58,280 --> 02:30:00,320 Speaker 2: played all seventeen games a year ago as. 2903 02:30:00,160 --> 02:30:00,840 Speaker 3: A pro bowler. 2904 02:30:01,480 --> 02:30:04,760 Speaker 2: Why why again, if you were a young player and 2905 02:30:04,800 --> 02:30:07,800 Speaker 2: you have that kind of talent to play the running 2906 02:30:07,840 --> 02:30:11,400 Speaker 2: back position, wouldn't you say, you know what, I'm gonna 2907 02:30:11,400 --> 02:30:15,280 Speaker 2: play cornerback instead, or a wide receiver or something along 2908 02:30:15,280 --> 02:30:18,280 Speaker 2: those lines. They're getting paid running backs are not. 2909 02:30:18,640 --> 02:30:21,320 Speaker 4: Well, all right, you're you're saying if you're a younger player, 2910 02:30:21,360 --> 02:30:21,800 Speaker 4: I'm talking. 2911 02:30:21,640 --> 02:30:22,720 Speaker 3: About a younger player. 2912 02:30:22,760 --> 02:30:24,360 Speaker 2: And let's say I'm coming out of high school and 2913 02:30:24,400 --> 02:30:26,680 Speaker 2: I'm one of those you know, five star guys, and 2914 02:30:26,680 --> 02:30:28,560 Speaker 2: they say, yep, we're gonna have you at running back. 2915 02:30:28,640 --> 02:30:32,120 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm I'm so sure about that, all right. 2916 02:30:32,680 --> 02:30:34,560 Speaker 2: Let's cause at the end of that, I want to 2917 02:30:34,560 --> 02:30:36,640 Speaker 2: play in the NFL. That's not where the money is. 2918 02:30:36,680 --> 02:30:40,920 Speaker 4: Let's let's put this on perspective. Okay, I'm not saying 2919 02:30:40,959 --> 02:30:46,600 Speaker 4: that Austin Eckler or Sakwon Barkley, or or any of 2920 02:30:46,600 --> 02:30:47,599 Speaker 4: these running. 2921 02:30:47,240 --> 02:30:48,160 Speaker 3: Backs Dalvin Cook. 2922 02:30:48,240 --> 02:30:51,800 Speaker 4: Yes, I'm not saying for a second that they do 2923 02:30:52,000 --> 02:30:55,760 Speaker 4: not have a case and and that that case is 2924 02:30:55,800 --> 02:31:01,240 Speaker 4: actually warranted and and of of sound logic. But like, 2925 02:31:01,320 --> 02:31:06,720 Speaker 4: for example, Austin Eckler, over a four year contract, will 2926 02:31:06,720 --> 02:31:10,640 Speaker 4: make twenty four and a half million dollars, and then 2927 02:31:10,680 --> 02:31:14,520 Speaker 4: he's added incentives by openly complaining about how he feels 2928 02:31:14,520 --> 02:31:20,440 Speaker 4: he's underpaid, like I do. Yes, there there is a 2929 02:31:20,480 --> 02:31:25,800 Speaker 4: point to be made about young athletes potentially being interested 2930 02:31:25,800 --> 02:31:30,320 Speaker 4: in changing their positions. But if a young Austin Eckler 2931 02:31:30,600 --> 02:31:33,560 Speaker 4: was asked, you know, prior to being an undrafted free 2932 02:31:33,600 --> 02:31:36,800 Speaker 4: agent in the NFL, even during college, if he would 2933 02:31:36,840 --> 02:31:40,760 Speaker 4: ever change his position because twenty four and a half 2934 02:31:40,879 --> 02:31:44,560 Speaker 4: million dollars wouldn't be enough, he would laugh at you 2935 02:31:44,640 --> 02:31:46,800 Speaker 4: and he would say, hey, where do I sign that contract? 2936 02:31:46,800 --> 02:31:50,840 Speaker 4: That sounds more than fair. Look, we're talking about millionaires, 2937 02:31:51,360 --> 02:31:53,600 Speaker 4: and we're talking about a tremendous amount of money, and 2938 02:31:53,600 --> 02:31:57,920 Speaker 4: we're talking about complaints that do not resonate with the everyman, 2939 02:31:58,760 --> 02:32:00,680 Speaker 4: Like there are people who are brain making their back 2940 02:32:00,720 --> 02:32:04,240 Speaker 4: digging ditches in this country who aren't nearly admittedly as 2941 02:32:04,280 --> 02:32:07,520 Speaker 4: talented as Austin Eckler or Dalvin Cooker, Saquon Barkley or 2942 02:32:07,560 --> 02:32:10,840 Speaker 4: Josh Jacobs. They're not, and nobody is interested in watching 2943 02:32:10,840 --> 02:32:13,720 Speaker 4: them dig ditches. Everybody is interested in watching Austin Eckler 2944 02:32:13,760 --> 02:32:17,280 Speaker 4: and Saquon Barkley run the football. But my point is 2945 02:32:18,120 --> 02:32:22,120 Speaker 4: that this, this complaining about how they're they're not being 2946 02:32:22,320 --> 02:32:27,600 Speaker 4: valued while making tens of millions of dollars is it's 2947 02:32:27,640 --> 02:32:30,959 Speaker 4: a hard argument. It falls on deaf years with fans, 2948 02:32:31,840 --> 02:32:37,240 Speaker 4: these these public conversations about this are difficult for the 2949 02:32:37,280 --> 02:32:40,440 Speaker 4: fan base, Like this is the reason why football players 2950 02:32:40,480 --> 02:32:45,600 Speaker 4: typically lose favors in these holdouts against owners, because they'll 2951 02:32:45,640 --> 02:32:50,480 Speaker 4: say something that sounds greedy, because in some ways it 2952 02:32:51,000 --> 02:32:53,760 Speaker 4: kind of is you know, they're thinking about theirselves instead 2953 02:32:53,760 --> 02:32:56,480 Speaker 4: of their team success. It's a team support, et cetera, 2954 02:32:56,520 --> 02:32:59,080 Speaker 4: et cetera. But at the same token, I don't blame 2955 02:32:59,120 --> 02:33:02,480 Speaker 4: them because guess what anybody in their situation would do 2956 02:33:02,520 --> 02:33:04,560 Speaker 4: what they're doing if it meant on the other side 2957 02:33:04,600 --> 02:33:06,959 Speaker 4: of it, making a boatload of money. And my argument 2958 02:33:07,160 --> 02:33:10,320 Speaker 4: was everybody looks at Le'Veon Bell and they talk about 2959 02:33:10,320 --> 02:33:13,840 Speaker 4: it like, boy, he really he strewed his career, did he? 2960 02:33:14,680 --> 02:33:17,519 Speaker 4: I mean Le'Veon Bell held out a year in Pittsburgh 2961 02:33:17,680 --> 02:33:20,440 Speaker 4: and then he made a gigantic amount of money signing 2962 02:33:20,440 --> 02:33:22,039 Speaker 4: a huge contract with the New. 2963 02:33:22,000 --> 02:33:24,080 Speaker 3: York Jets and didn't produce, by the way. 2964 02:33:24,000 --> 02:33:26,040 Speaker 4: Didn't produce, but he still got paid he did. 2965 02:33:26,720 --> 02:33:29,440 Speaker 2: So I'm I'm just trying to put a value here though, 2966 02:33:29,680 --> 02:33:33,080 Speaker 2: because d hop reportedly is getting a two year deal 2967 02:33:33,160 --> 02:33:38,520 Speaker 2: that could be worth with reasonable incentives, thirty two million dollars, right, Yeah, 2968 02:33:38,560 --> 02:33:42,000 Speaker 2: I mean is a wide receiver like DeAndre Hopkins more 2969 02:33:42,120 --> 02:33:45,920 Speaker 2: valuable in terms of what he brings on the field 2970 02:33:45,959 --> 02:33:49,120 Speaker 2: to a Davin Cook or a Josh Jacobs or an 2971 02:33:49,160 --> 02:33:49,920 Speaker 2: Austin Eckler. 2972 02:33:50,080 --> 02:33:51,120 Speaker 3: Is he more valuable? 2973 02:33:51,640 --> 02:33:53,200 Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah he is? He is. 2974 02:33:53,360 --> 02:33:55,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I see, I don't look at it 2975 02:33:55,320 --> 02:33:57,440 Speaker 2: that way, but I'm taking it from you. You think 2976 02:33:57,480 --> 02:34:00,959 Speaker 2: a wide receiver, yes, like that has more value because 2977 02:34:01,000 --> 02:34:02,680 Speaker 2: to me, I look at a wide receiver like we 2978 02:34:02,720 --> 02:34:05,000 Speaker 2: go back to the Randy Moss situation. He was a 2979 02:34:05,000 --> 02:34:07,600 Speaker 2: stead of Minnesota disappear in the Raiders because they didn't 2980 02:34:07,600 --> 02:34:10,240 Speaker 2: have a quarterback. He goes to New England Tom Brady's then, 2981 02:34:10,280 --> 02:34:11,560 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden he's putting up Hall of 2982 02:34:11,560 --> 02:34:12,360 Speaker 2: a numbers again. 2983 02:34:12,440 --> 02:34:14,960 Speaker 4: Well just look, Okay, so you're you're a big fan 2984 02:34:15,040 --> 02:34:18,720 Speaker 4: of like Hall of Fame's Halls of Fame, Yes, like 2985 02:34:18,800 --> 02:34:21,760 Speaker 4: they're important to you. And there are certain players, and 2986 02:34:21,800 --> 02:34:25,280 Speaker 4: I've heard you make this argument before that there are 2987 02:34:25,280 --> 02:34:29,640 Speaker 4: certain players who aren't Hall of famers. They're greats who 2988 02:34:29,720 --> 02:34:31,720 Speaker 4: are stack compilers. 2989 02:34:31,720 --> 02:34:34,040 Speaker 3: Right right, or they were on the right team at 2990 02:34:34,040 --> 02:34:34,800 Speaker 3: the right time. 2991 02:34:34,800 --> 02:34:36,840 Speaker 4: Or right or you know, just happen to be in 2992 02:34:36,879 --> 02:34:40,680 Speaker 4: the correct environment. Okay, So running backs, if a good 2993 02:34:40,760 --> 02:34:43,560 Speaker 4: year for a running back still with seventeen games is 2994 02:34:43,680 --> 02:34:47,480 Speaker 4: over one thousand yards, that still seems to be the benchmark. Well, 2995 02:34:47,800 --> 02:34:52,160 Speaker 4: nowadays that has become the same for a wide receiver. 2996 02:34:52,360 --> 02:34:54,320 Speaker 4: Like a good year for a wide receiver is one 2997 02:34:54,320 --> 02:34:56,760 Speaker 4: thousand yards. But if you look at the ways in 2998 02:34:56,760 --> 02:34:59,080 Speaker 4: which a wide receiver gets to one thousand yards versus 2999 02:34:59,080 --> 02:35:02,800 Speaker 4: a running back, it is by and I'm talking about 3000 02:35:02,840 --> 02:35:06,960 Speaker 4: a good season for a wide receiver. It's averaging twelve 3001 02:35:07,040 --> 02:35:12,560 Speaker 4: to fourteen yards per catch, it's scoring something to the 3002 02:35:12,600 --> 02:35:14,199 Speaker 4: realm of fifteen to twenty touchdow. 3003 02:35:14,200 --> 02:35:15,880 Speaker 2: Do you guys have a quarterback gets you the ball? 3004 02:35:15,920 --> 02:35:18,600 Speaker 2: In other words, a catch is like a handoff. The 3005 02:35:18,640 --> 02:35:20,560 Speaker 2: difference is it travels through the air. 3006 02:35:20,800 --> 02:35:23,119 Speaker 4: But a lot of these guys, and Austin Eckler included, 3007 02:35:23,280 --> 02:35:25,840 Speaker 4: is not just talking about the fact that they're so 3008 02:35:26,040 --> 02:35:28,160 Speaker 4: valuable in the run game. They're also talking about the 3009 02:35:28,200 --> 02:35:29,760 Speaker 4: touches they get in the passing game, the. 3010 02:35:29,760 --> 02:35:32,600 Speaker 3: Whole to one hundred and seven passes last year, exactly 3011 02:35:32,680 --> 02:35:33,960 Speaker 3: on top of being a running back. 3012 02:35:34,040 --> 02:35:37,560 Speaker 4: So my thought process here is Austin Eckler, the way 3013 02:35:37,640 --> 02:35:40,959 Speaker 4: he should really frame his debate about this is I 3014 02:35:41,000 --> 02:35:45,160 Speaker 4: should be I should be I should be represented as 3015 02:35:45,160 --> 02:35:47,880 Speaker 4: a wide receiver on this team. Right, That's who I am. 3016 02:35:48,000 --> 02:35:50,360 Speaker 4: That's my value to this team. It would make more 3017 02:35:50,400 --> 02:35:52,840 Speaker 4: sense in the argument as opposed to saying like, I'm 3018 02:35:52,879 --> 02:35:55,560 Speaker 4: a running back, but I'm an important piece of this 3019 02:35:55,680 --> 02:35:59,440 Speaker 4: offense and my position is being undervalued. Right. No, you're 3020 02:36:00,040 --> 02:36:02,960 Speaker 4: your specific role on the Chargers is really important to 3021 02:36:03,000 --> 02:36:06,039 Speaker 4: the Chargers because you catch boatloads of passes. But the 3022 02:36:06,080 --> 02:36:09,440 Speaker 4: typical running back they carry the ball for four yards 3023 02:36:09,440 --> 02:36:12,080 Speaker 4: to carry, five yards to carry and everybody goes, great job. Well, 3024 02:36:12,080 --> 02:36:14,600 Speaker 4: guess what, the receiver who's earning the same amount of 3025 02:36:14,680 --> 02:36:17,920 Speaker 4: yardage having a good season is averaging twelve yards to 3026 02:36:18,000 --> 02:36:21,760 Speaker 4: catch or fourteen yards to catch. And that's amazing because 3027 02:36:21,760 --> 02:36:25,520 Speaker 4: that suddenly changes the offense's ability to have success on 3028 02:36:25,600 --> 02:36:26,360 Speaker 4: any given drive. 3029 02:36:26,440 --> 02:36:28,480 Speaker 2: All right, well, we are up against it. But I mean, 3030 02:36:28,480 --> 02:36:31,200 Speaker 2: bottom line here, he had three I'm sorry, gout Austin Eckler. 3031 02:36:31,240 --> 02:36:35,400 Speaker 2: He had three hundred and eleven carries slash of receptions 3032 02:36:35,440 --> 02:36:38,199 Speaker 2: a year ago. And obviously there's never been a receiver 3033 02:36:38,280 --> 02:36:40,080 Speaker 2: that's had three hundred catches in a season. 3034 02:36:40,200 --> 02:36:43,000 Speaker 3: So how many touches does he have? How many yards 3035 02:36:43,040 --> 02:36:43,520 Speaker 3: does he get? 3036 02:36:43,600 --> 02:36:45,520 Speaker 2: I mean, and again, when you're handed the ball off 3037 02:36:45,520 --> 02:36:48,400 Speaker 2: as opposed to catching the pass twenty yards down the field, 3038 02:36:48,520 --> 02:36:52,000 Speaker 2: I don't know it's apples and oranges, but I see 3039 02:36:52,120 --> 02:36:55,080 Speaker 2: the frustration. But again, if the money is at the 3040 02:36:55,080 --> 02:36:59,280 Speaker 2: wide receiver position rather than the running back position, and 3041 02:36:59,320 --> 02:37:01,720 Speaker 2: I can who's early on in my career which direction 3042 02:37:01,760 --> 02:37:03,520 Speaker 2: I want to go, I'm gonna go where the money 3043 02:37:03,560 --> 02:37:05,520 Speaker 2: is down the road.
