1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Horse racing is putting the expression all news

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: is good news to the test this week. The sport's

4
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,120
Speaker 1: been in the news a lot since Kentucky Derby winner

5
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 1: Medina's Spirit failed a drug test, but there's a lot

6
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: of negative attention. Yesterday, trainer Bob Baffort had to walk

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,639
Speaker 1: things back on that topical ointment that he used on

8
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: Medina's Spirit. Still, Maryland racing officials are going to let

9
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: the horse compete in the Preakness this weekend. In fact,

10
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: his presence will probably be the key to the race

11
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: getting respectable ratings. But big picture here the questions about

12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: Bob Baffort, the trainer. Are they going to come down

13
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: hard on him? Make a point here, They're going to

14
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: dque the horse and take away the Kentucky Derby, And

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate. At twelve to one, medinas Spirit was a

16
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: great underdog story and Baffort was starting to get recognized

17
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: even more as one of the transcendent figures in racing.

18
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: And now we have chaos. But it's interesting, probably not

19
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: how horse racing authorities would like the sport to be

20
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: elevated to mainstream but any publicity is good publicity. Right,

21
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: Let's bring in Pat forty covers. The Sport had a

22
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: lot of things to say about Bob Baffort. After the

23
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: Kentucky Derby, Pat had a tweet saying Maryland officials site

24
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: integrity of due process and allowing Medina Spirit to run,

25
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 1: while also asking for additional testing of the derby winner.

26
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: Testing yesterday and today should yield results by Friday, officials,

27
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: said Pat. I said this after the Derby. I said

28
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: it to Bob Baffert, why don't they test the horses

29
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: prior to the Derby? Then you don't have this embarrassment?

30
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: And he said, well, it's hard to do that. If

31
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: you do it Friday and then the race is Saturday,

32
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: can you get the test results? Well, the Preakness is

33
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: doing this now and Medina's Spirit is going to be

34
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: racing here. So what do you make of the Preakness,

35
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: Medina Spirit and Bob Bafford. Yeah, I guess I'm not

36
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: surprised that Medina Spirit has been given the tentative go

37
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: ahead to race. We'll see what the drug test comes

38
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: back with on Friday. If there's still traces of Betha

39
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: Medazon in his system or not. But I just think

40
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: that without the second confirming sample back from Churchill Downs

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 1: that they were facing, you know a lot of angry

42
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: lawyering if they tried to keep the horse out of

43
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: the Preakness here and quite frankly, you know, as you

44
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: alluded to, you don't want to run a Preakness without

45
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: the Derby winner if it's controversial. Well maybe also much

46
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 1: the better for a race that really is lacking any

47
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: luster day And I mean this is a weak field

48
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: other than Medina Spirit and Baffort's other horse concert tour.

49
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: So if you're Pimlico Race Course of Maryland Jockey Club,

50
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: you're sitting there saying, yeah, we want that horse and

51
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. The head veterinarian at Pimlico said the following

52
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: this morning. If there is or was any of this

53
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: drug or any other medications, whether therapeutic or illegal, in

54
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: the horse, we will know about that before the race.

55
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: This is supposed to be therapeutic, this cream that was

56
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: put on this horse, So why is it considered cheating

57
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: if it's not something that really you know, it's not

58
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: a performance enhancing drug. Yeah, well, I mean it as

59
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: an anti inflammatory, I would think it falls into the

60
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: category of something that relieves discomfort for horses, and thus

61
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: is it relieving a discomfort that would otherwise keep them

62
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: from running as well or running at all? If without that,

63
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: it's not the first Bafford horse to test positive for this.

64
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: I mean, has brilliantly fast Philly tested for this last

65
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: year in the Kentucky Oaks. So what was the purpose

66
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: of using it? Then? You know, is there is it

67
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: being used simply as a topical for a skim irritation,

68
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: or is it you being used to alleviate pain or

69
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: discomfort in some other area. That's I think the question.

70
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: I wondered, if Bob Bafford didn't go all scorched earth

71
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: a couple of days ago, that we might be a

72
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: little bit more lenient because he had cancel culture, he

73
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: had sabotage, I mean denials, never used it, We don't

74
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: use this. And then I said to Bob, Bob, did

75
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: you do inventory here? Did you ask people who work

76
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: with you? He said, we're in the process. Don't you

77
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: start with the veterinarian. I mean, I don't understand this, Pat,

78
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: I don't. No, I'm with you, that exactly. I mean,

79
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: if they found out about this on Saturday. I mean,

80
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: the first call goes to the vet, doesn't it if

81
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: if you are, you know, one hundred percent in the clear,

82
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: the first call is there any chance to why this

83
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: horse would have this in its system? And you go

84
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 1: from there to everybody else in your barn. You know,

85
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: why would the horse test positive for this? And yeah,

86
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: I think Bob's reaction h definitely was off putting to

87
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 1: some people. And just the cumulative effect of this has been,

88
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: you know, five very high profile positive tests for Bob

89
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: Baffer horses. You know, he's great for the sport in

90
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: terms of his success and his visibility and his roachability.

91
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: He's glib, you know, he's recognizable in a sport where

92
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: nobody's recognizable. But at the same time he's lost a

93
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: lot of credibility in the last year plus really over

94
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: these drug tests. And I think this was like one

95
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: bridge too many for a lot of people. Did horse

96
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: racing have a good week? No? I don't think so. Now.

97
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: I mean you could argue, you know, as your lead

98
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: in said, any publisty is good publisting. They're testing the

99
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: bounds of that, for sure. I don't think so. Anytime

100
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: the Kentucky Derby winner is disqualified. That's a bad week. Now.

101
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 1: It has certainly sustained the storyline of Medina Spirit and

102
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: and the Kentucky Derby for several days, and and it's

103
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: brought interest into the Preakness that maybe wouldn't be there.

104
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: But I don't think. I think what we're gonna have.

105
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: We're gonna have people at Pimlico booing the Medinas Spirit

106
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: and you know, while that may not hurt the horses feelings,

107
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: it's not necessarily good for the sport. The horse hasn't

108
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: apologized technically, yes he has. He's been stubbornly silent. Yes,

109
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 1: yes he has. Thanks for joining us, Pat, We appreciate

110
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: your time as always my pleasure. Damn. That's bad forting

111
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: spot till the strated senior writer. Yeah, I think horse

112
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: racing will benefit from this. The casual fan probably doesn't

113
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: care about it. You like the event, somebody's gonna have

114
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: a party. You go over, and then everybody has some cocktails,

115
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: whatever the cocktail is of that race, and then you

116
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: have that and you know, maybe you have the horse racing, uh,

117
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, prior races in the background, and all of

118
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: a sudden you gather around TV and then you watch

119
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: for two and a half minutes and then it's done.

120
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: Does anybody care if it's like real or sanctioned or

121
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if people do. It's almost like we

122
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: move past steroids in baseball, certainly in football Tour de France. Yeah,

123
00:06:52,920 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: somebody's doing something football sure, hdh steroids, somebody doing umpthing.

124
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 1: It's like we just kind of said, all right, whatever,

125
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna watch for the entertainment here, you know,

126
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: not the moral compass here of the sport. And I'm

127
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: worried about the integrity like I used to. You know,

128
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: you know I was flying that flag, you know, oh,

129
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: you got to protect the sport. I wanted to protect

130
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: Hank Aaron, believe it or not. That was my crusade.

131
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: I gotta protect Hank Aaron from what. I'm not sure

132
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: other than Barry Bonds. And Barry Bonds is you know,

133
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: friends with Hank Aaron. But I'm going to protect him

134
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: from I'm gonna protect the integrity this sport. When you

135
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: tell people, oh, yeah, you know, h GH is a

136
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: big issue in the NFL, people don't care. Do you

137
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: care unless it's a quarterback who tested positive? Like if

138
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: it came out that Tom Brady used performance enhancing drugs,

139
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: or Russell Wilson or throw out Patrick Mahomes. There you go.

140
00:07:54,240 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: If Patrick Mahomes tested positive, probably a big deal, but

141
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: not as big as Derek Jeter testing positive because we

142
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: viewed steroids differently in baseball than we do in football,

143
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: because you know, having been on the sidelines and listening

144
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: to the collisions, I'm like, hell, yes, I'd be using

145
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: steroids if I played baseball. Oh my god, the integrity

146
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: of this sport, like we kind of pick and choose

147
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,080

00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: to the back room guys. Nobody else does, but I

156
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: went back to say hello, and then I walk out,

157
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: coming back over to the other side of the man cave.

158
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: Seaton goes, do you hear about Gwyneth Paltrow, and I go,

159
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: wait what and Paully goes save it. I go, you

160
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: can't do that. You know. I love Hollywood. Are we're

161
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: gonna have a Hollywood minute here? Seaton. I gotta get

162
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: to Florio, but you're teasing me here with Gwyneth Paltrow.

163
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: She made a pretty powerful admission about some of the

164
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: sort of the lows that she hit during uh quarantine.

165
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: Oh okay, are you ready? No, no, no, no, I

166
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 1: gotta get to Florio. I mean, he's really busy. It's

167
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: it's a stunning unless Mike Floria wants to hear about

168
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: Gwyneth Paltrow. Mike, I'm gonna leave this up to you.

169
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: We can talk football, or we can work in Gwyneth

170
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 1: Paltrow and I will not be able to function properly

171
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: over the course of this interview if I don't know, okay,

172
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 1: what happened and I and I believe you're being sincere. Mike, yes,

173
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: set well, listen, it's broke. I think maybe a day

174
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: or two ago. Um, but it's it's just taken me

175
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: now to emotionally be prepared to bring this to you guys.

176
00:09:55,960 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: But apparently during quarantine, Gwyneth Paltrow broke down and date bread.

177
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 1: Oh my god, actual bread, Yeah, carbs and all back

178
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: to you. Did she announce this like a like a revelation.

179
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: That's how low things got? She actually ate bread, the

180
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: crust and everything. Yes, Oh my god, Mike, Gwyneth she

181
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: was really Although when you said she ate bread, I

182
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: thought you said she ate Brad. No, I'm gone. Now,

183
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: let's bring in Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk Live co host.

184
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: Let me start with Tim Tebow. I'm curious. You know

185
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: you had Chris collins Worth podcast with Urban Meyer and

186
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,439
Speaker 1: Chris ask him and Urban basically saying I haven't made

187
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: a decision yet. When does he have to make a

188
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: decision on Tim Tebow joining the ninety man roster. Let

189
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: me just first say that during quarantine, on a nightly basis,

190
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: I took a large piece of bread, soaked it in bourbon,

191
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: lit it on fire, and swam wallowed at holes. So

192
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: take that when you look at the clip of what

193
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: Urban Meyers said to Chris Collinsworth. I mean, at one

194
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: point he says, hey, let's give it a shot. Well,

195
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: but we haven't decided to do it yet. I don't.

196
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,319
Speaker 1: I don't I don't get it, Dan, I don't know

197
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: if this is a trial balloon, if they're they're stung

198
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: by what happened with the Iowa strength coach that they

199
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: had on the payroll for like a day before urban

200
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: Meyer realized. This isn't like college football, where you just

201
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 1: do whatever you want to do. This is a gimmick.

202
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: This is a side show. Urban Meyer's trying to sell

203
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: it as something other than that. It is an effort

204
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: to sell jerseys, it's an effort to sell tickets. They

205
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 1: can sign them whenever they want to sign him. And

206
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 1: I think part of it is, frankly, they got to

207
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: figure out what they're gonna do with Gardner Minshew because

208
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: he's wearing Tebow's number, and so that's that's a reason

209
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: to wait, because you want to sell the fifteen jerseys

210
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: right out of the gates. You don't want to have

211
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: a back order of fifteen jerseys, and you don't want

212
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: to have something awkward where he wears number sixteen then

213
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: number fifteen. But I feel like it's going to happen.

214
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of when. And I guess the

215
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: one small sliver is the possibility that urban Meyer gets

216
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: enough pushback internally that he realizes this isn't college football.

217
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be able to make this fly

218
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: in the locker room because there's gonna be guy's giving

219
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 1: him the side eye in the locker room saying, are

220
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: you serious? A guy hasn't been in the NFL since

221
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: twenty twelve in a regular season game, never played tight end,

222
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: He had one snap at tight end, it did not

223
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: go well. And he's going to get one of these

224
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: jobs that there are hundreds of guys out there trying

225
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: to get these jobs. Get out of here with that.

226
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: I feel like he's going to have to deal with

227
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: that internally. But it's the ninety man roster that's that's

228
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: different from me if it got down to the fifty

229
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: three man roster, Wait will I think? I think if

230
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: he gets on the ninety man roster, he's gonna make

231
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: the fifty three man roster. Well, why is he on

232
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: the ninety man Roster's what's the point of given one

233
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: in ninety roster spots and one of the most competitive

234
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: sports in the world. When there are guys every year

235
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: coming out of the college level who are good enough

236
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 1: to play at the NFL level and they're dying for

237
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: a spot on the ninety man roster. You're taking that

238
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 1: ninetieth spot and you're giving it to a guy who

239
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: you should just hire to be an assistant coach. Make

240
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: up a title for him if you want him in

241
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: the building, if you want to give your friend a job,

242
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: do that. Don't give him one of the ninety spots

243
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: where the guys are competing to be one of the

244
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: fifty three. I think what's going to happen is he'll

245
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,199
Speaker 1: end up on the practice squad and they will elevate

246
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: him on a regular basis to one of those two

247
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: extra spots where you can take practice squad guys and

248
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: make it a fifty five man roster and potentially potentially

249
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: end up, you know, dressing getting a gimmick play thrown

250
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: his way, catching a touchdown pass. Fans are happy, jerseys

251
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: are sold. I just think that you're not doing this

252
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: dance with Tim Tebow now unless you have plans for September,

253
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: And I think urban Meyer has plans for September, or

254
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: he wouldn't be wasting this time on it. Now, why

255
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 1: does Tim Tebow bring about anger? Well, look, yesterday people

256
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: immediately started to make the connection with Colin Kaepernick because

257
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: Kaepernick's been out four years, and right now, the strongest

258
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: argument for not giving Kaepernick a chance is he hasn't

259
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: played him four years. Where here's a guy who hasn't

260
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: played in eight years and he's going to change to

261
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: a position that he refused to play back when the

262
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: quarterback things started to fizzle out for him. But it

263
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: occurred to me this is very simple. No one was

264
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: going to give her Tim Tebow a chance. Urban Meyers

265
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: the one coach who was going to sign Tim Tebow,

266
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: just like Jim Harbaugh is the one coach who would

267
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: sign Colin Kaepernick because he's been praising Kaepernick the last

268
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: four years. If Harbor ended up being the coach in Jacksonville,

269
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: maybe Kaepernick get an opportunity, but Tebow gets an opportunity

270
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: because it's the one coach who would give him one.

271
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: And I just think it's this idea, Dan that it

272
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: started with the baseball thing. For me, I had no

273
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: problem with him playing in the NFL. He was the

274
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: first round draft pick. Josh McDaniels rolled the dice and

275
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: it kind of worked. You know, he got to the playoffs.

276
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: I mean, horribly inaccurate figured away to win close games

277
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: from time to time. Magic will run in twenty eleven.

278
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: But you know, there's a certain point where you just

279
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: gotta you just gotta, you gotta move on and if

280
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: you don't move on, you're And I got no problem

281
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: with it. I'm a capitalist. The Mets thing was about

282
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: making money, and I feel like this thing's about making money.

283
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: So don't don't tell me it's about football when it's

284
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: about making money, because I think it's about Jacksonville Jerseys, tickets,

285
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: excitement and not about football. If I said Urban Meyer

286
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: is either going to be really good or really bad,

287
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: no middle ground, what would you take really bad? Just

288
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: because history tells us other than Jimmy Johnson. You know,

289
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: it seems like every few years there's a college coach

290
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: who comes to the NFL and he's gonna revolutionize the game,

291
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: and the media lines up to apply lips to his

292
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: buttocks in the event that he is Jimmy Johnson, right, Oh, whoaah,

293
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: this is gonna be great. Oh great, Joanna, Oh, he's

294
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: gonna be great. Chip Kelly, Oh, he's gonna be great.

295
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: He's gonna revolutionize the game. Nope, who's the other one? Yes,

296
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: Furrier saving I mean, they're all one after another. Here's

297
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: a guy, and I believe it when I see it.

298
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: If if you're gonna be Jimmy Johnson, you gotta prove

299
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: me you're a Johnson, And until then, there's only one

300
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson. That's how I look at it. And I

301
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: feel like there's so many in our business that are

302
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: falling all over themselves to assume that this is the

303
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 1: next Vince Lombardi. It makes me inclined to go the

304
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: other way too. And we'll see, we'll see. It's it's

305
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: it's a hell of a laboratory experiment. And from the

306
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: Jaguars perspective, every other thing they've tried for the past

307
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: twenty years hasn't worked, so they may as well try this.

308
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 1: He's Mike Florial Pro Football Talk Live co host with

309
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: Chris Simms. I'm wondering if the commissioner can call the

310
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: Packers before they before they do the schedule release. If

311
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: you're running a league you like you have the Packers

312
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: opening weekend that twenty five slot that that's Fox's big game,

313
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: and the other game is Denver against the Giants, the

314
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: team mentioned as the landing spot for Aaron Rodgers if

315
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: he doesn't stay in Green Bay. Do you think the

316
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: commissioner calls teams, just the packers to inquire about certain

317
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: things like a situation like that, to help when they

318
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: release the schedule. Look, I don't know if the commissioner

319
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: sits down with a notepad and a to do list

320
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 1: and I'm going to call Mark Murphy today and talk

321
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 1: about Aaron Rodgers. But I suspect they have ways of

322
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:23,360
Speaker 1: getting information. Whether it's three levels down, but they get

323
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 1: the best information they can. What's going on here? What

324
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: do you think is going to happen? They need that information.

325
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 1: Packers Chief's biggest game of the year, potentially other than

326
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: Buccaneer's Patriots. You got to put that game late enough

327
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 1: in the season. They can be flexed out of four

328
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: twenty five or flexed out of Sunday Night Football if

329
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: that's where it would end up. I mean, you don't

330
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 1: want it to be locked into Monday night Football. You

331
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: don't want it to be in a hard spot where

332
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 1: you can't move it because you may or may not

333
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: have Aaron Rodgers. So I think there are ways to

334
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 1: protect yourself against it. But yeah, how do you not

335
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: have those conversations when you have access to the individuals involved,

336
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,679
Speaker 1: and these are legitimate business considerations. Where are we going

337
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: to put these marquee games? Let's take away the Buccaneers

338
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys. Give me the must C matchup in

339
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: Week one. Wow, Steelers Bills. I'm surprised that's a one

340
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: o'clock game. I really am a couple of playoff teams

341
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,360
Speaker 1: from last year with a lot of continuity. I mean,

342
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: with the Saints Packers, you know you're getting one new

343
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: quarterback in New Orleans, whether it's Taysom Hell or Jamis Winston.

344
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: It's not like Drew Brees is back. You got Ben

345
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger in what likely will be his final year, going

346
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 1: to Buffalo to take on Josh Allen, the Steelers going

347
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 1: all in, the Bills trying to rectify how their season ended.

348
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: I think that's the best game of Week one, and

349
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: you could argue it's even better than Cowboys Bucks. Yeah,

350
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: but I think this might be because it's Buffalo and

351
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: they're at one o'clock that maybe Steelers. Of course they're

352
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 1: a national draw. I don't know if the Buffalo Bills

353
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: are a national draw. If this game was in Pittsburgh,

354
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: then maybe it's a four twenty five game, But I

355
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 1: don't know. It just feels like maybe Buffalo is still

356
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 1: not graduated to that musty TV. What excites you more?

357
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: Steelers Bills or Ravens Stealers and the Bills. Yeah, but

358
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: now the Raiders new stadium. I think there's a sensitivity

359
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 1: to letting these stadiums absolutely all year. This is the

360
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,199
Speaker 1: first time there's actually gonna be human beings other than

361
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: the players and the coaches and the officials in Allegiant Stadium.

362
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 1: So it's got to have a prime spot. Kind of

363
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: quiet on the Deshaun Watson front here, very quiet. What's that?

364
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: What's that mean? It means that they're working on a

365
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: settlement of the twenty two cases. It's the only it's

366
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: the only reasonable conclusion at this point. And look, it

367
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: was nearly three weeks ago where the lawyers were in

368
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 1: court accusing the other parties each side of destroying evidence,

369
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: and there were social media posts dan and there were

370
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 1: press conferences, and it was ugly and it was nasty.

371
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: The plug doesn't mutually get pulled on those tactics in

372
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: the court of public opinion unless there's something happening behind

373
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: the scenes, and if they can get these cases settled

374
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,719
Speaker 1: to the satisfaction of everyone involved, I think Deshaun Watson

375
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: gets traded. And I wrote last night that I think

376
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: the two main destinations him would be the Dolphins or

377
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 1: the Eagles. And I think the Eagles are a team

378
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: that should never be discounted in this because they are

379
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: desperate to get a franchise quarterback, and yes, they want

380
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,239
Speaker 1: to go all in with Jalen Hurts this year. But

381
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: if Deshaun Watson, who's already proven himself, would fall into

382
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: their lapse, I think they would do it. I keep

383
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: thinking the Washington football team. I think that's well. But

384
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: the only problem is we know what's happened off the

385
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: field with the Washington football team with cheerleaders, with the owner,

386
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: and I think that's a Molotov cocktail. If you bring

387
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson into a situation like that, even if you

388
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: make a great point and he's going to get suspended,

389
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: even if he gets all these cases resolved today, you

390
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 1: can't not suspend him. With twenty two of these claims

391
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,880
Speaker 1: alleging sexual misconduct during massages. When Ben Roethlisberger served four

392
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: games in twenty ten with two allegations of sexual misconducts,

393
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: so you can't look the other way. If you're the NFL,

394
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 1: it's got to be a four or six game suspension.

395
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 1: Some people have talked to around the teams, not the

396
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: league office, but the teams are thinking that's what it

397
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: would be. I don't think there's gonna be any hesitation

398
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 1: to trade for him once these cases are resolved, because

399
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: if the cases aren't resolved, then what you're trading for

400
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: is a guy who's going to be on the commissioner

401
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: example list until the cases are resolved. You know there's

402
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: going to be a suspension. You assume there's going to

403
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: be one. You trade for him, he serves a suspension,

404
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,719
Speaker 1: and then he comes back by Halloween, and you've got

405
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: him for the rest of this year and more importantly,

406
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: for the rest of his career if you can keep

407
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: him happy and if you can work it out. From

408
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: a cap standpoint, here we are in the middle of May.

409
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: If you were betting on Aaron Rodgers where he'll be

410
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 1: in September. I think he's gonna find a way to

411
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: come back and act like what's everybody looking at? I mean,

412
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: is there a booker I'm unaware of Why is everyone

413
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 1: staring at me? Why is everyone want to ask me

414
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: all these questions? What's a big deal? I think he's

415
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: gonna do that, Dan, We've seen him do that before.

416
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: You know, he'll light the fuse, he'll run away, and

417
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 1: after the explosion he comes back and he chastises everyone

418
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,919
Speaker 1: for noticing the explosion. I think that's what he's gonna do,

419
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: and he's gonna blame us, me, you, everyone who's made

420
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: a big deal about it, which is looking for clicks,

421
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 1: We're looking for views, we're looking to make money off

422
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: of his name. When he knew damn well that he

423
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: could have ended all of this with Tariko at the

424
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: Kentucky Derby two days into it, he had a chance

425
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: to go on camera and say this is all over blown,

426
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: this is all fake, this is nothing. I'll be there.

427
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna find a way to come back

428
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,239
Speaker 1: because he's got no other options because I don't think

429
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: the packers at this point are going to trade him.

430
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: But does he enjoy this? I don't know. I don't know.

431
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: You know it's I see too, though, Mike. The dynamic

432
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 1: I see from players from time to time goes like this, Hey, everybody,

433
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 1: look at me, What the hell are you looking? Right? Well,

434
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 1: he can always retire and do Jeopardy. Thirty million dollars

435
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: to retire, Dan, No, I know when people seek all

436
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: of it back, yes, but when people say, oh, he'll

437
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: retire and do Jeopardy, there's no given that he'll get

438
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 1: to do Jeopardy, and they're not. I could pay him

439
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: thirty million dollars. Peter King made a great point a

440
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. On one hand, Aaron Rodgers has

441
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 1: no hesitation at all to tell the world I want

442
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: to be the host of Jeopardy. No nuance, no ambiguity,

443
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: no beautiful mystery, nothing. I want this job. As it

444
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: comes to his football career, he won't tell us a

445
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: damn thing. He's speaking in riddles and enigmas and clues

446
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,959
Speaker 1: and whispers and just tell us what you want, Aaron,

447
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 1: what's so hard about telling people what you want when

448
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: you've already proven that you have the capacity to well?

449
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: I said that to Chefty, like, come on, like Aaron

450
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: owes it to people, and then Cheft He's like, no,

451
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 1: he doesn't. I go, yes, he does, Chef. He's getting

452
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: himself in line for the scoop of what happens next

453
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 1: with Aaron. Dan, Come on, come on, Dan, Chef Cheft.

454
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: He's taken every bullet he can for Aaron. That whole

455
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 1: thing about that he's the one who bull crap. Rogers

456
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: wanted that out there. Chefty took the bullet so that

457
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 1: when the next move comes, Cheft he's the one who

458
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 1: gets it. Rogers wanted that out there the day that

459
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 1: it hit. Not that wasn't Chefty's sitting back working a chessboard.

460
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: That was Rogers working the chessboard that may have included

461
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: Chefty is one of the ponds. You should have Chefty

462
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: on your show. Okay, welcome anytime we tell it like

463
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: it is. Baby. I'm too old to give a crap anymore, Dan,

464
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 1: life's too short to tiptoe and kiss ass and pretend

465
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: to play the game. Do you think you could take

466
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 1: Adam Schefter? Oh? I could take him. Oh, I could

467
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: take him. It's pretty good. I will only pick a

468
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: fight with people that I know that I could beat up,

469
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: really so, which is why I'd never pick a fight

470
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: with you. Absolutely absolutely, yes, that's right. Thing. It's height

471
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 1: and reach. Yes, yes, Dan, it's already breaking this one

472
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 1: down now. Florida was a good shape. He's got good

473
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 1: size arms. They're sneaky, covers them up a lot. Chefter

474
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: is a thick guy. I don't know how athletic he

475
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 1: is there if he could fight, but he he was

476
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: a Northwestern guy, not the toughest school. Or just do

477
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: the tail of the tape. I'll show up anytime, any

478
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: place for the measurements, for the tail of the tape.

479
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. That's all I'm saying. Thank you, Bud,

480
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: Thank you man. That's Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk Live

481
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: co host. I'd watched that Florio v. Schefter. He doesn't

482
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 1: say anything about Jake Glazer. He's not touch at all. No, no, no, no,

483
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,400
Speaker 1: Seaton learned that the hard way. Yes he did. You wrestled?

484
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: I threw that fight, did you? Yeah? Yeah, I heard that.

485
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: Jake Paul wants to fight you next after Is it

486
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: Logan Paul who's fighting Floyd Mayweather? And shouldn't Floyd fight

487
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: both of these brothers? And't It's sad that boxing has

488
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: gotten to the point where it's gimmicky. Where we go? Um?

489
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: How do we how do we uh you know, raise

490
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 1: some awareness, get some publicity. How about you know some

491
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 1: YouTube or TikTok guy is going to fight sort of

492
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 1: Floyd May with Yeah, how about put both of them

493
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: in the ring against Floyd. Yeah. See, we were just

494
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: sort of like sparring me and Jay Glazer and he

495
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: was just like, yeah, you know, like looks it's just

496
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,119
Speaker 1: to be something like this, and he play kicked me

497
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 1: in the thigh and one. It was some of the

498
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: most extreme pain. He'd play kicked me like just mess.

499
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 1: It was like the most extreme pain I read. I

500
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: had a massive bruise on me and he immediately swept

501
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: my legs out from under me, and he was just

502
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: like warming up like yeah, you know, like just something

503
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: like this. Wabang went right down. Oh yeah, that's good. Okay.

504
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: He grabbed me and fourteen years ago in New York

505
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 1: from behind with my neck, and my neck has not

506
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: been the same. Like he was twisting it to get

507
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: me in some kind of arm barred some nonsense, and

508
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 1: I was like, dude, stop a chokehold, get out of here,

509
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: go get my bb gun. Thanks for listening to The

Speaker 1: He won an NBA title twenty sixteen with the Cams

516

Speaker 1: over Golden State, and Channing kind enough to join us.

517
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: All Right, so we know the best team you played on.

518
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 1: What's the worst team you played on? Oh, that's a

519
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: great question. Maybe my rookie year, the two thousand and

520
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: five Knicks. We had the highest salary in the NBA,

521
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: and I think we won twenty three games that year

522
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: with Larry Brown, that was, I mean, a dumpster fire.

523
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 1: It was hilarious. What's it like showing up knowing you're

524
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: gonna lose? Oh, it wasn't that we were just gonna lose,

525
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 1: because I've been on teams that were just too young

526
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: that we didn't get it. But it was still fun.

527
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 1: But it was just like Larry, we had the most

528
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,439
Speaker 1: starting lineups in the history of the NBA, and so

529
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: you didn't know if you were gonna start or not

530
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,400
Speaker 1: until forty minutes on the clock. So he would tell

531
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: the starting lineup and the vets. I didn't get it

532
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 1: at that time, and now I probably do what they did.

533
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: It's like just blow up. They would literally he would

534
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: write down who's going to start without telling anybody all

535
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 1: day long. It was. It was pretty amazing now that

536
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 1: I'm retired and now I'm not in NBA anymore. But

537
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: you have these fan bases. You had that with the Knicks,

538
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: but you're also with the Lakers prior to Lebron getting there. Yeah,

539
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 1: those fan bases when they turn on you like, oh,

540
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,400
Speaker 1: it's not fun, it's not fun. Which one was tougher though?

541
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: The Knicks are the Lakers. Oh, the Knicks not even close.

542
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 1: The next fan base is the toughest. I was getting

543
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: booed at Applebee's. I'm like, I'm just here for the

544
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: endless ribling basket. I'm getting boot Oh damn man, you know.

545
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,479
Speaker 1: And I was heard the last sixty days boo, I'm

546
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: in crutches, and then booing Me and David Lee We're like,

547
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: we're rookie, we don't control anything. It was if you

548
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: were going to explain Steph Curry to somebody who had

549
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: never seen him play, Oh, man, I would say, imagine

550
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: a guy that could show up on any court and

551
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: probably not be picked first, but that will never leave

552
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: the court because he's gonna win every single game. Like

553
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: he's he's not big, he's not extremely fast, he's not

554
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: extremely athletic. But yet he's two number one or two,

555
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: depending on how old you are, the most influential people

556
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 1: person in the NBA in the last ten twenty years. Oh,

557
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: probably even more than that. I think he's more influential

558
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 1: from the playing aspect than Jordan. Than Jordan, I mean Jordan,

559
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: you know that that shadow is a big shadow. But

560
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: Steph gave hope to anybody who steps on the basketball.

561
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: Play one was Steph had success. You said, oh, man,

562
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: I could shoot from if I could just Steph's greatest

563
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: superpower is a skill, right, Like Steph is like iron Man,

564
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: Like he built himself, like you worked on that, and

565
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: he has his innatibility and he like shooting is something

566
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: that everyone can do, yet he does it so well.

567
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: We're used to his audacious numbers that what he's doing

568
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: is so ridiculous, Like he's doing James Harden numbers without

569
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: James Harden's. I mean, people underst me how good of

570
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: a score James Harden is. He's doing James Harden numbers

571
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: without James Harden one on ones because he's coming off pindowns,

572
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: he's coming off screens like it's amazing this year. And

573
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: I'm you know what, I'm just gonna sound wild. I'm

574
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: not glad that Clay got hurt, but I'm glad that

575
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: people get to see this. Steph Curry. Yeah, I don't

576
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: know if we would ever have seen this Steph Curry.

577
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: And I was you know, I said something at the

578
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 1: beginning of the year that Warrior's fans got mad. I said,

579
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: if he doesn't take this team to the he's accomplish everything,

580
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: and if he doesn't take this team to the playoffs,

581
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: just the playoffs, that would that would make me disappointed

582
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: because I know how good he is and he's far

583
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: exceeded that to now you have to put him top

584
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: fifteen all time as a player. What's it like now,

585
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: you when you get switched out on him? Did you

586
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: ever get switched out on him? Yeah? Oh yeah, oh yeah.

587
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: It's the worst because the problem is he'll just throw

588
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: the ball to Draymond and then you have to chase him.

589
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: And it's not like he's gonna just James Harden you

590
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: or he's not gonna Kyrie. You, he's like, oh you're

591
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: my switch. Throw the ball to someone else. You don't.

592
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 1: You can't practice that. You can't practice verse going over

593
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: these screens. You can't stay in the body. He's too fast,

594
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: he's too he's too smart, and they set great screens,

595
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: and it's just like he's impossible to guard because he's

596
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: okay without the ball. In a minute you turn your head,

597
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: he's gone. Would you want to be a teammate of

598
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 1: Rush of Westbrooks me as a shooter? Yes, oh yeah,

599
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 1: oh yeah, well he doesn't he might not throw it

600
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: out to you as often as you think you're gonna

601
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: get it there chanting, I mean, listen. Yeah, I definitely

602
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: think that Russell Westbrook has gotten a lot better at

603
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: creating opportunities for other people, especially on this Wizard team.

604
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: I think his triple doubles do equate to winning. But

605
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: I also feel like any great player, you lean yourself

606
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: towards their style of basketball, right It just you can't,

607
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: like Steph can't go to New York and be get

608
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: fifty a game. Nobody's getting fifty on New York, even

609
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,239
Speaker 1: you know, Julius Randall is having a great year. But

610
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:49,959
Speaker 1: I don't know what his career high is this year,

611
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: maybe thirty five. It's just a system. So his system

612
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 1: that works is fast paced. You know, you gotta scoring

613
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 1: to one, twenties, one thirties. Is he the second best

614
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: point guard of all time? Who is rush? No? Well,

615
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: Scotty Brooks said that he's maybe. Scott Brooks said that, Okay,

616
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 1: I respect that, but now we not stop it. That's

617
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: so disrespectful to either magic, John saw Isaiah's time. Magic

618
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: is one, Magic is one, Isaiah's two Magic is And

619
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 1: now I had this conversation last night with one of

620
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 1: my old teammates. Magic is probably the last small guard

621
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: to win multiple championships, truly small guard. That was your

622
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 1: point guard, right? And I mean is? I said, Isaiah?

623
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,959
Speaker 1: Oh yeah you had magic? Because yeah, I say, had

624
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: magic one Isaiah two. And then you know, depending on

625
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 1: how you view the point guard position, then maybe man,

626
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 1: well it's Steph Curry a point guard. I don't, I don't,

627
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,959
Speaker 1: I don't think. To me, I think Draymond is at

628
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: point guard? To me, okay, is Russell? Would you rather

629
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 1: have John Stockton or Russell Westbrook? Oh? John sucks? And stop?

630
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: I played with Steve Nash. Would you rather have Nash

631
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: or Westbrook? Oh, I'm taking a sorry Nash, but it

632
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: just that hurt. That hurt me saying it, But I

633
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,240
Speaker 1: hurt me. Say Paulie, let's bring in Steve Nash. Now, Steve,

634
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 1: you just heard. No, I wouldn't do that too. Oh man,

635
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:36,760
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that too. You all right? So Lakers

636
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 1: Warriors look like their own a collision course here in

637
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 1: that playing tournament. I don't think they're worried about it,

638
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: the Lakers about that. I don't think the Lakers are

639
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: worried about it, and I don't think the Warriors are

640
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 1: worried about it because I don't think the Grizzlies or

641
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: the Spurs match up very well versus Warriors. Right I

642
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: think the if we are just to end the season

643
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 1: right now, I think that's how it would end. The

644
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: Lakers will be seven. I think they love that matchup

645
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: versus Suns, especially with a healthy Lebron and healthy Schroeder.

646
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: And then I think the Warriors are like, I think

647
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 1: we have a chance for its Utah. I think the

648
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: Warriors stylistically are Utah's bamed in Utah's existence. They switched

649
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: screening roll and so there are three things and that's

650
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 1: why I was talking about it on TV the other day.

651
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 1: There are three things team can do. You can play

652
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 1: one on one, you can run your system, or you

653
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 1: could do screening. Roll right in Utah is the best

654
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: screening role in system team in NBA. So they passed,

655
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 1: they moved, they cut. All that happens because teams can't switch,

656
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 1: but the Warriors are the best switching team in NBA,

657
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: so they switched underneath. The last game you watched, Rudy

658
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,839
Speaker 1: Gobert had ten points, but like his ten points were

659
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: just I'm just bigger than everybody ten points. He had

660
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: no impact on the game pretty much. Why do you

661
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,439
Speaker 1: think Jordan Clarkson had to go one on one so much?

662
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: Jordan Clarkson shooting thirty three shots is exactly what the

663
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 1: Warriors want to do, right. But the problem is when

664
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 1: you add Mike Conley and you add Donovan Mitchell, now

665
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: you have more ball handlers, but neither one of those guys.

666
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: So you would have Donovan Mitchell and Jordan Clarkson really

667
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: are your one on one guys, and you would say

668
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: I'll take my chances with Draymond Wiggins, Kelly Oubrey and

669
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 1: Jordan pool Camp base Moore. With those chances, now, I

670
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,400
Speaker 1: think Utah would win that series. But I think Utah

671
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: or I think Golden State would give him a run

672
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: for their money. If I gave you the niche and

673
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 1: the Lakers or the rest of the field to win

674
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: the championship. Man, first of all, I can't better get

675
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,759
Speaker 1: Braun in the playoffs. I think he's too Yeah, he's

676
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: gotta be healthy like in ads, gonna be that's huge.

677
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you this, Listen, if I've made as

678
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,439
Speaker 1: much money as he was, I'm pretty sure he's pretty healthy.

679
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 1: If I know him, This dude gets twenty four hours

680
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: around the clock and this is not a joke, twenty

681
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 1: four hour around the clock care every time he has

682
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: an injury. So for him, they didn't have a long break.

683
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,399
Speaker 1: A lot of guys are coming back and they're having

684
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: soft tissue injuries. So you've seen a lot of hamstring,

685
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 1: You've seen a lot of you know, this year has

686
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 1: been a weird year for them to be seven. I

687
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 1: don't think the Lakers give a crap as much as

688
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,400
Speaker 1: everyone makes this. Have you been to Lebron's house me

689
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 1: his old house in Cleveland. Oh, she haven't been invited

690
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: to the al Ancron. No, no, I haven't. It's been COVID.

691
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: I haven't gone to La. I'm gonna go to this house.

692
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,879
Speaker 1: I'm gonna raid his wine fridge defensive. I'll go right

693
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: to the fridge. What what was the mansion in? Was

Speaker 1: it Akron? That? Yeah? Acron? What did it have in

695
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,759
Speaker 1: that that I would be surprised him? I mean, have

Speaker 1: you ever been to a Hilton? Looks like like, oh no, no, hey,

00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: for sure. Listen, we are everybody in the NBA. You

699
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:02,919
Speaker 1: should take care of yourself. You get a big house.

700
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 1: I have a big house in Portland, Oregon. My house

701
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 1: looks like a shack compared to his house. I said, damn,

00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,399
Speaker 1: and it is like, I think Obama stays there when

00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,479

715
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: who had a club? Never a club? Maybe Vince Carter

716
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,839
Speaker 1: who has an equally as big house in the same

717
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,440

Speaker 1: and Shack all live in the same neighborhood in Orlando.

719
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: Vince may have had a club in his house. His

720
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:11,240
Speaker 1: house is like a house empty Hammer would own. But

721
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,799

Speaker 1: renting a house there in Orlando. It was It was

725
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 1: the best thing about Orlando other than that it was trash.

726
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,759
Speaker 1: It was a horrible city. I don't know why Q

727
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: Rich and Vince and all of them love it. I'm

730
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 1: on it. Yeah, listen, like, who's gonna buy Shack's house

731
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: because everything is to his size, isn't it. Somebody's gonna

732
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: buy it, like some oil toilets gotta be to his shuns, right,

733
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: Oh boy, he must be some dinosauricized toilet. Shack is

734
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: a big guy man, Shack like, I'm seven foot, well,

735
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 1: however many pounds and Shack makes me look tiny, and

736
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: I'm a big man. It Shack makes me look tiny.

737
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 1: But I thought that yeaow Ming made Shack look a

738
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: little more normal. Yell's head is so bad. Yeaw's head

739
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 1: is so big. Right. I remember I was on the

740
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: Portland Trailblazers and uh, you know, I really I was

741
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: playing on and off with Nate McMillan because you know,

742
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,439
Speaker 1: the Marcus Aldres was bawling and then the playoffs say

743
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: like put me in on Shack or not Shock, but yeah,

744
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 1: and I was. I looked at the coach like what

745
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 1: am I gonna do with that? Like what am I

746
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: gonna do with this? And I'm seven foot and he

747
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,359
Speaker 1: just turns around and shoots a jump over me. And

748
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: I look at the beach like that best Like that's

749
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 1: the best of guy. Like he outweighs me by one

750
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 1: hundred ounds. He is five inches taller than me. And

751
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 1: like he shoots the free throws for his team. He

752
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,399
Speaker 1: shoots the technical free throws. Like, so a skill set

753
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 1: is super high. It's not like I can rattle him,

754
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: you know. So I'm just here to annoy him and

755
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: you know, do whatever. He's kind of head. That's the

756
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:20,680
