Remember, smash those five-star reviews as well.

Don't be stingy with them.
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:09.760
Did you know that chameleons, we know this?
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:17.680
They change their color to get in their environment, but they also change their color due to stress levels.
00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:21.359
Wish we had that ability.
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:30.480
When people ask you, like, if you had a superpower, what would it be?
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:35.920
If we could change that, sounds kind of I know coming from this guy.
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:42.719
I see my privilege.
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:44.400
I'm not I'm not trying to be that guy.
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:46.159
That was that was ill time.
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:51.920
Oh man.
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:54.400
Oh, what is gonna God?
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:55.840
What a way to start the show.
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:56.879
What's good, everybody?
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.000
Welcome back to the Playbook Podcast with Prescott Kelly.
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:01.359
I'm your host, Prescott Kelly.
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:02.640
Today is Thursday, April 9th.
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:04.560
Glad to have you back with us.
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:06.480
I got LaShawn with me again.
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:08.560
CR was supposed to be on today.
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:10.240
He's the one who instigated.
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:11.680
Well, I technically instigated.
00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:12.719
He said he would be on.
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.719
He he's late to the party.
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:16.400
He's on CR time.
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:18.560
Hopefully he's alright.
00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:20.000
You what?
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:21.840
I said, hopefully he's alright.
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:23.840
Oh, I'm sure, I'm sure he's fine.
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.840
He's just, you know, when you got these kids you don't like, and you got these jobs you don't like, and everything else in between.
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:36.240
Um, I was gonna offstage you and I talked about this where we want to talk about the Browns first.
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:42.560
Um, I need to stop scrolling on my phone sometimes because I have no idea what's real and what's not.
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.280
Apparently, Jaden Ivey is retiring.
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:58.800
I again I don't want this is probably a satire page, but I don't fully not believe it that Jaden Ivey is retiring to become a prof uh professional that man would never see NBA floor again.
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:00.479
You really think that?
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:02.400
Yeah, he's CR is in the building.
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:06.319
All all we had all we had to do was talk, and CR is gonna pop in.
00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:07.120
I get it.
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:09.520
Yeah, he it Jaden Ivey is cooking.
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:10.719
It's my calling.
00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:14.319
He he is never barbecued chicken.
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:21.520
All three of us are playing the NBA before his ass do.
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:22.879
Exactly.
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:25.680
Do you guys you guys really think that he's done?
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.479
You can't he's not good enough to not be done.
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:38.719
See that that that I think is always interesting because like the religious component always feels like there's a reason why somebody will take you.
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:49.120
Like that was kind of the Tim Tebow effect, is because people liked him enough and because of the whole religious factor that he was able to hang around just long enough, even though we knew at the professional level he wasn't good enough.
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:57.120
But he was like a top five, six pick, but even to like Detroit didn't want him, and he's did he's declined in usage every single year.
00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:07.680
So I get I get what you guys are saying, but I feel like at some point in time, if he's like if he goes over season hoops for a bit and just keeps his mouth shut, that he might have an avenue back in.
00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:12.879
No, we just done with him, bro.
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:16.000
You cannot talk about the community like that.
00:04:16.399 --> 00:04:20.399
You you can't do that, especially with the way these owners are set up.
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.879
You can't be that outspoken like that.
00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:25.279
Yeah, look at me, Trump.
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:27.759
Y'all think be

a bum real quick.
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:31.360
Yeah, you can't be a bum, and I don't agree with what he said.
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.560
I'm just saying, I mean, I get it, I get where you're coming from.
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:41.759
Right you will you would like to see him get another chance, but no, uh-uh, like his wife is about to leave him.
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:48.160
And then yo, I mean like everything he's done is so cringy, yeah.
00:04:51.439 --> 00:05:00.959
Your mom coaches at at a pretty prestigious college for the women's basketball program, and you send up out here doing this, man.
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:02.000
Like, come on, man.
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:18.319
Well, see, and that was one thing like I hope that y'all had a good Easter, but I had put up and like CR don't comment much on the uh the talking points, but he's like, they taking up parking spots, and that was the most CR thing I've ever heard with Easter Christians on Easter and Christians on Christmas.
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:26.800
Bro, I had to park in the auxiliary uh the off lock, you know what I'm trying to say on Sunday.
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:27.759
That shit pissed me off.
00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:29.040
Like, I'm here every week.
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:30.720
I should have a reserve spot.
00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:34.639
I was with I was just about to ask you, do you got a reserve spot there?
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:44.879
Well, see, that's what I've always the thing is I I again and you guys have talked about like we talked about this at certain times.
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:47.600
I'm not a religious person, I don't hate on anybody who is.
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:52.399
What I have a problem with is people hiding behind of it and the illusion of the Bible and religion.
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:59.279
And I feel like if you only go to church on Christmas and only go to church on Easter, you're basically treating it like Valentine's Day.
00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:03.439
You're trying to make up for everything else that everything bad that you did throughout the entire year.
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:07.439
You're trying to make up for for one day, and I'm not down with that.
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:10.160
Understandable, like I get where you're coming from.
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:14.319
Like, I'm not the type that you know, I'm not religious or anything.
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:28.319
Like, I used to be like my mom, and I had a good friend that used to want me to go to church every Sunday and everything, and it's just like, here I am, I'm falling asleep in church because I find it kind of boring.
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:29.839
I'm sorry.
00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:34.480
Well, that that wasn't the avenue that I took, like as far as and I think I've mentioned it here.
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:37.279
I know I talked about it on the Paul Wizard show last week.
00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:52.399
Was I was raised very religious, but at a very young age, when you're in church and you're you know
11, 12, 13 years old, and your your pastor's saying please be with the cowboys as they pay as they face the Panthers to pay off my camoy.
00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:59.360
I start to have a little bit of you know you know, you your ears open up, your ears open up.
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:01.920
You you know what you're seeing, you know what you're hearing.
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:09.519
Yeah, it was just uh I thought that that was a very I up, but I'm with also going to an all-white church.
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:17.360
You thought that your church was boring, good lord, it was just like peace be with you.
00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:22.800
They they want you to be there for like two, three hours, and I'm like, nah, man, I'm at an hour's tops, man.
00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:26.079
After that, I'm aggravated, I'm ready to get up out of here.
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:30.879
I'm actually kind of impressed that so many people still go to church because of the attention span that we have nowadays.
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:45.199
Like these kids are just like that's why I I do feel like the ones who go are brainwashed because like ain't no kid have that kind of uh brain capacity to stay still for that long about any subject matter, regardless of what it is.
00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:47.199
No, no way.
00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:49.439
I'm saying my kids are kidding children's church.
00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:50.720
That's like a break.
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:54.399
Yeah, they go right to children's church, I get a break from them.
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:00.079
Set your fantasy lineups while you're at church, CR.
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:02.399
I like to sit in the top deck.
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:03.600
Huh?
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:09.759
LeChawn just did what I said is the whole reason why I stopped wanting to go to church.
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:12.720
Set your fantasy lineup.
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:17.199
Set your fantasy lineups while you're at church with the pew-pews.
00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:21.199
I do, I make parlays and everything, and I ask God to bless them.
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:25.040
That's all please.
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:27.759
Lord, please let this parlay hit.
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:30.000
Let me get this 50k today.
00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:32.080
You know how bad I need this money.
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:37.519
You know, you know my daughter got accepted into this program at Harvard.
00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:42.639
And Cameron got accepted into this program at Harvard for the summer.
00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:44.240
That's that's 5k.
00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:46.159
I need these parlades to hit.
00:08:47.360 --> 00:08:48.240
Understandable.
00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:51.120
Look, I know I know we've been on different things.
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:54.000
I will be texting y'all a link for a fundraiser later.
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:55.279
Oh shit.
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:00.799
Go ahead and buy this popcorn.
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:02.960
Oh, that that's nothing.
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:09.919
So I wanted to again, I need to stop scrolling my phone because I wasn't sure if that was even real or not.
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:20.320
But um, one thing that's not on the docket because that we were waiting for you, CR, and like not to chastise you, but it was it was my idea, then your idea, and LaShawn was the first one on.
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:24.159
Was I want to get to the Cleveland Browns first before everything that's on the docket.
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:26.799
What is the worst case scenario for Cleveland this year?
00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:30.000
Because I feel like the worst case scenario, Sarah, you ain't gotta go away.
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:30.480
You can stay here.
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:51.840
I wasn't trying, I wasn't trying to be mean, but uh um I feel like the worst case scenario for them is that because of the money and because they put so much into him that they're gonna start him week one, and if he actually looks relatively good, uh-oh.
00:09:52.799 --> 00:09:55.519
Are we in the mode where we might have to extend him?
00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:59.600
Like not to the same money that they already gave him because they're not extending him, I know that much.
00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:01.679
I'll I'm gonna just go out there and just say it right now.
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:05.120
I don't personally, I don't see him winning the competition.
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:11.360
You are not about to be out two and a half years with two, I'll say two horrific injuries.
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:21.279
One was as a rare bone in your shoulder that you shouldn't be breaking, because that's gonna pretty much have your shoulder cooked, and you tore your Achilles not once but twice.
00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:24.000
So also his heart's broken too, though.
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:25.679
Yeah, John's heart's broken.
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:39.360
But I mean, it's I I do think like in the back of my mind, there's something in me that still says we've we we're paying him this is the last year of his contract, right?
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:48.879
Of the extension, yeah, so there's part of me that thinks they're gonna say we've already dug ourselves so big of a hole.
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:50.960
Why not?
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:53.360
Like, why not start him?
00:10:53.519 --> 00:11:08.240
See if he looks good, maybe somebody wants because you know, I know that you're shaking your head, but one thing that we both know is that NFL coaches and coordinators thinks they think it they look at broken quarterbacks as like the broke boyfriend, I can fix him.
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:13.919
And if he even looks remotely good, to me that's that's the biggest problem.
00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:20.879
I'm not saying that this is going to happen, but if that's the route they go, is we're paying him this much money, we might as well try them out there, see what we got.
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:26.320
The problem to me is like if he looks remotely good, is another NFL
team gonna trade for him?
00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:27.919
Are the Browns gonna give him more money?
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.919
Like, I do if they are the Browns, the Browns will trade him.
00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:42.720
If I'm the Browns, I don't even put myself in that situation because I would rather just get out and I know the devil that I know, I'd rather just not play him at all and put myself in that predicament.
00:11:42.879 --> 00:11:49.279
But I feel like they have dug themselves such a deep hole that they have to at least try to get out of it somehow.
00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:55.279
The way they get up out of it somehow is Shador starts and Shador's look good.
00:11:55.440 --> 00:12:00.240
Hey Watson, you already got your contract money, you got a nice parting gift.
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:02.240
Good luck up out there, my guy.
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:11.200
I'm just surprised they didn't release him this offseason, but at the same time, they didn't want to have to pay him 135 million dollars to go away.
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:16.480
There does become a threshold where you go, we want this problem to go away, but at what cost?
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:25.679
So I understand like letting letting that kind of simmer and playing it out, which uh what about you, CRD?
00:12:25.919 --> 00:12:32.799
Is there any chance that you see that Deshaun Watson plays again for Cleveland, starts, and they try to move him?
00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:35.039
Because my whole thing is like I just don't know.
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.759
I'm looking at it from everybody's angle, and I feel like they would give him a shot.
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:42.080
I don't think they should, but I think they would.
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:46.399
Yeah, he was looking at it from all angles.
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:49.039
Yeah, yeah, make sure he got a lot of people.
00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:50.320
That's what the playbook podcast is about.
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:52.639
This is aggro crack, baby.
00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:57.919
No, the start of week one.
00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:03.600
I don't I'm telling y'all, for the start, he ain't gonna be starting week one.
00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:08.000
Sierra, did you say I'm gonna let you guys know this right now?
00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:12.240
The OTA starts here in a few weeks for the Browns because they got a new head coach.
00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:17.039
We're gonna see, we're gonna hear that Shador is getting majority of the reps.
00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:18.720
He's gonna be the starter.
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:26.240
That listen, the only reason why Ty got this head coaching job is because he vouched to play Shador.
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:29.120
It ain't Watson.
00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:31.919
They just making it sound good that Watson is gonna get a change.
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:34.159
Watson is not getting a change, y'all.
00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:37.759
You don't think he has I don't know, man.
00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:39.840
Like, I I feel like he's
gonna get one.
00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:46.240
So in this in this hypothetic, Shador starts week one.
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:50.799
What if they we talked about this a little bit when it came to the head coaching stuff with with Grable?
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:51.919
We'll get to that in a moment.
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:55.200
Like, what if the Browns start one and three and Shador looks awful?
00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:58.159
You think that Watson gets a uh gets a run then?
00:13:58.240 --> 00:13:58.720
Because I do.
00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:03.360
You keep playing them, you want to just go for the number one pick.
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:06.080
Just be bad, be bad, and be bad on purpose.
00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:13.120
Jimmy Haslam has his hand in Pei Manning's pocket because he wants his nephew.
00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:14.320
Wow.
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:16.480
I don't listen.
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:18.080
You want my honest opinion?
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:27.440
I don't see Archie as being a franchise like a uh Andrew Luck, Matthew Stafford, Caleb Williams type of quarterback.
00:14:27.840 --> 00:14:39.919
I hate everybody's high expectations last year, and here it is like, yeah, he played better at the end of the season, and now he's gonna put a bigger target up on his back heading into next season with Texas.
00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:46.240
So I'm like, in my opinion, there's gonna be five or six quarterbacks who's gonna get selected in the first round next year.
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:48.480
You just better make sure you get the right team.
00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:55.360
I know that we hear that we hear that a lot where it's like it's it's a quarterback heavy.
00:14:55.519 --> 00:15:08.960
But this is what irritates the hell of me about just like the draft in general is the fact that we say it seems like every single damn year we hear it's a weak quarterback draft, but four go in the first round, damn near every year, anyways.
00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:11.440
Listen, you remember that 2018 draft?
00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:15.759
That was the Baker, Baker, Josh, Lamar, um Josh Rose.
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:18.320
That that was that draft.
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:21.440
They're comparing next year's draft to that class.
00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:28.080
But that's an even still, like that's kind of an You said why?
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:34.480
Yeah, I'm I like saying you're gonna have all those quarterbacks that's gonna be going into that draft.
00:15:34.559 --> 00:15:37.840
They're gonna have two plus years of starting experience.
00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:42.720
You're not gonna have the one year, like what who went number one?
00:15:42.879 --> 00:15:44.240
Anthony Richardson.
00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:46.960
One year starter, he went top five.
00:15:47.120 --> 00:16:01.360
No, every quarterback, you're gonna have Dante Moore, Archie, you're gonna have um the quarterback for Oregon, South Carolina, Gillen Dabriel, because I call him that all the time.
00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:05.360
I don't even know who the Oregon quarterback is, but his now his name now is Gillen Dabriel.
00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:07.120
He's Dante Moore, and guess what?
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:13.039
He's from Cleveland, so I'm surprised that Browns fans weren't vouching for him to go into the draft.
00:16:13.279 --> 00:16:19.759
So I'm is he from Cleveland or is he from Akron, aka No, he he was he was born in Cleveland.
00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:26.240
Born in Cleveland, then moved out to like the suburbs, then moved to Michigan.
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:32.879
Zrem uh Zrem Sean says Shador is gonna be the starter, period.
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:36.879
I just I just don't like dealing in absolutes, is my whole thing.
00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:48.639
Like there's there's a lot of things that could happen, and I'm not a Deshaun Watson defender, but I just know I know at one point in time we thought of him as the guy.
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:49.519
Yeah.
00:16:50.000 --> 00:16:57.039
And if he got his mind right and his body's right, it's but those those are all huge, huge, crazy ifs, though.
00:16:57.120 --> 00:16:59.840
Like that that's a that is the biggest parlay of all time.
00:16:59.919 --> 00:17:03.120
If he got his mind right, if his body's right, if he can still play.
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:06.799
The game move on without you, man.
00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:08.960
The game move on without you.
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:10.319
Yeah.
00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:16.079
Death, taxes, and football being undefeated when it comes to how good you actually are.
00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:17.119
Yeah, exactly.
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:23.519
Like you can't be on a sideline for two and a half years and think saying you still got it.
00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:25.920
Nah, the game is too fast, man.
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:41.359
I think that the the only reason why like I still have a little bit in my mind is because I do like if I had never seen him be what I thought he, if I never saw what he actually was, I'd be in your camp 100% without any doubt.
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:54.880
But the problem is I saw what Deshaun Watson was at the highest of his powers, and the problem also is when he got to Cleveland, that offensive roster was cheeks.
00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:59.200
So it was bad, dog.
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:01.440
He had Amari, all right.
00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:02.799
This is what I always say.
00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:08.079
He had Amari Cooper, he had David Njoku, still had Nick Chubb, the offensive line was still there.
00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:11.200
He comes in Joku wasn't Njoku yet, though.
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:16.559
Like but as soon as Watson went down, we started seeing Cooper, Njoku.
00:18:16.880 --> 00:18:22.559
Of course, Nick Chubb was still producing, and all of a sudden, with uh what's his name?
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:27.119
Joe Flacco, all of a sudden, Flacco gets us to the playoffs, and you're not gonna be able to get the biggest.
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:36.400
He was getting everybody involved, he kept the offense on schedule.
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:37.279
That's what he had nothing.
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:41.839
The the thing is like I feel like there's a mental thing that goes along with it, right?
00:18:42.240 --> 00:18:44.720
He's now what 49?
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:50.960
I'm I'm largely joking, but any contract that he gets is just a blessing in disguise.
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:52.240
He's got nothing to worry about.
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:58.160
He's slinging it to everyone, and he was he was throwing it to Kenneth Byers.
00:18:58.240 --> 00:18:59.119
Like he didn't care.
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:02.720
Just hey, just get rid of it.
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:06.160
Just he got a art monk.
00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:08.079
I saw him throw it to Art Monk twice.
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:11.200
Like he got into the playoffs somehow, some way.
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:12.160
Watson.
00:19:13.359 --> 00:19:17.680
I'll say his last game before he got hurt against the Ravens.
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:24.720
You thought something was clicking then, but when that injury happened, I was just like, Yeah, that's the Cleveland way.
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:32.799
You you you try to put your hoe behind a quarterback and you get shit on 42 times since 1999.
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:33.839
Yeah.
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:38.559
What about you, Sierra, before we move on?
00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:41.759
Deshaun Watson?
00:19:43.599 --> 00:19:47.039
Should I cue the music like you're talking to uh to Detroit?
00:19:47.599 --> 00:19:49.680
No, I don't need to talk to PP, man.
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:52.960
Like he uh I don't know.
00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:55.039
The last time we saw him, he was trash.
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:57.759
The last time he was in Houston, he was trash.
00:19:58.079 --> 00:19:59.920
He's been trash for a minute.
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:02.720
It's been like four or five years since he's been legitimately good.
00:20:04.880 --> 00:20:06.319
Oh hell no.
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:14.000
Oh I'm not I'm not gonna say it up on here, but I I know what you said.
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:18.160
I'm not gonna say it up on here because I'm not about to get canceled.
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:21.279
I know what you're gonna cancel the channel, dog.
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:22.000
Do you?
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:29.519
This in order for tiger to get his mojo back, he had to start, you know, going with the bitches.
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:34.799
He was pulling out with his teeth, he was like, eh, get it out of there.
00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:39.279
Yeah, maybe the shiny well, he got married now, so he can't do that.
00:20:39.680 --> 00:20:40.960
The tiger blood.
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:45.039
Yeah, have you had that hot sauce by the way?
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:47.519
It's a hot sauce called Tiger Blood.
00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:48.319
There is, yeah.
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:54.799
Then I'll leave my review to myself.
00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:59.200
Then
I'm gonna have to look this up, man.
00:20:59.519 --> 00:21:02.960
I never heard I'm on I'm on Google now looking up tiger's.
00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:05.759
It's the thing is like it's it's not it's not great.
00:21:05.839 --> 00:21:11.519
The thing is, I I I put hot sauce, like you know, the whole Franks thing is that I put that on everything.
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:11.920
Uh-huh.
00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:12.960
I put hot sauce.
00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:17.920
If it's not basically cereal, I'll put hot sauce on everything.
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:23.680
And tiger's blood is like, it's just there's like there's no flavor to it.
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:25.519
Ah, okay.
00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:31.920
But anyway, so it's I mean, it's it's not even that hot, it's just it's just not good.
00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:39.119
Just if I think what they did, if I remember right, that the the the timing was around when Tiger King dropped from Netflix.
00:21:39.279 --> 00:21:42.799
Oh, because I never I had never seen the hot sauce beforehand.
00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:50.240
I'm not saying it wasn't there, but I never noticed it until like 2021, and that's when I bought it.
00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:55.119
Because I I'll I'll I'll dig in, I'll I'll see what the hype's about or see why this thing is here.
00:21:55.279 --> 00:21:56.480
It just wasn't that good though.
00:22:01.759 --> 00:22:06.960
But I want to get into this this Diana Rossini and uh Mike Vrabel thing.
00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:13.599
I made the joke about how you know if if Rabes would have won that Super Bowl, he wouldn't be in this position, right?
00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:23.039
But to dig into it deeper, because I don't know the timeline of when they met.
00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:27.359
I also know the timeline of when Diana Rossini really got to the height of her powers.
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:35.359
And we I I mentioned this with Joy Taylor as well as like Joy Taylor always had like kind of the fallback of like, well, your brother is Jason Taylor.
00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:42.480
Like her the reason why she got into her powers, I feel initially was because of what we would call nepotism.
00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:52.000
But then you see that it's a beautiful black woman on TV, and she makes some good points, and then she starts to validate herself.
00:22:52.160 --> 00:23:01.359
But then we get everything that's wild through Fox News as far as what she also had done, and then we go to Diana Rossini, who with Rabel, two married people.
00:23:01.599 --> 00:23:12.079
But is she is she where she got because of what she did, or did she do it to get to where she got, then stopped, and then her and raves us had a vibe.
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:26.160
I don't know what the deal is because I feel like the there the glass ceiling to me still exists in sports when it comes to women and especially women of color trying to get to a certain point because they're still looked at as like this.
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:28.000
This is a men's dominated field.
00:23:28.160 --> 00:23:41.920
So I understand, like trying to do what you gotta do to get to the next level, but at the same time, it's you gotta have some who you are as a person, like it's it's it's a very convoluted talking point, really.
00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:43.519
You're right.
00:23:43.680 --> 00:23:48.559
I've seen all the videos come out, like she just she disrespectful as hell.
00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:49.680
Exactly.
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:54.319
Diana is yeah, yeah, because the thing is, I have not I have not done any research on this.
00:23:54.400 --> 00:23:59.279
I saw her enved and that was it, and I've seen the memes, but I have no idea what's actually factual.
00:23:59.519 --> 00:24:03.039
A lot of people are doing a lot of digging up there on on Twitter.
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:08.640
See, I don't I don't I don't uh I don't dive into that cesspool.
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:19.119
Yeah, she was she said on one like she said on that on ESPN, like you know, she she tells her husband that you know she needs a boyfriend, like bro.
00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:22.400
Yeah, and that she actually tweets that out.
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:24.640
She treated that out.
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:29.279
Okay, and and I'm gonna just say this right now.
00:24:29.359 --> 00:24:43.759
I'm gonna just say it goes past Vrabel, like it before I'll say before this whole Vill episode came out, there was a rumor that she was with Sean McBay back when he was in Washington.
00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:45.119
Whoa, really?
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:46.160
Yeah.
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:53.680
So when I first labeled this episode, I was gonna preface it with I don't mean anything disrespectful to Diana.
00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:56.640
It was just I thought a clever play on words for an episode.
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:00.079
But apparently, this this Diana really is dirty.
00:25:01.440 --> 00:25:11.519
Yeah, I mean to when you're in the in that type of business, you do what you gotta do to, especially as a woman, to get ahead.
00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:15.920
To get to get to that spot, you you gotta do what you gotta do.
00:25:16.240 --> 00:25:22.079
Now, if you're a single woman like Joy Taylor was and everything, alright, fine and dandy.
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:27.440
But Diana, she's married, and she's been married for a few years now.
00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:36.880
She got two kids with her husband, and like now all of this comes out, and it's just in my opinion, as the husband, what do you do?
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:38.319
What do you say to her?
00:25:39.759 --> 00:25:48.880
Well, I think what's wild is that if she's already because again, I'm not I don't follow a lot of people, like the whole celebrity thing doesn't really intrigue me.
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:56.079
So the fact that she's been that open before him, maybe he's just okay with it because of the bread that she makes.
00:25:56.480 --> 00:25:57.599
He's a cup, then.
00:25:58.319 --> 00:26:00.799
Yeah, I wasn't gonna say that word, but I'm glad that you did.
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:02.000
But I was thinking it.
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:07.839
So he's he's over there in the corner sitting in the chair watching.
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:11.279
It's like that weak ass boys to men line.
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:14.799
I knew you were up with that other guy, I just didn't care.
00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:15.839
Like you bitch.
00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:19.519
Oh my goodness, you know I love you.
00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:20.400
Oh my god.
00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:24.559
We belong together.
00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:28.000
You let you know that I'm right.
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:32.319
Ain't no way, man.
00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:40.880
I can't have somebody that I'm supposed to be laid up with embarrassing me like that publicly, privately, can't do it.
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:57.759
Well, then again, so like I never knew that those things existed, but if obviously he would know that that she's doing that to him publicly, and to be doing it for that many years is one that man must have no skills to go get his own money or to get another woman.
00:26:57.839 --> 00:27:02.240
He's just like, This is the best I can do in life, I'll just take it.
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:04.160
That's crazy to me.
00:27:04.480 --> 00:27:05.119
It is.
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:11.440
I've like he's he's a Kevin Fetterline of NFL women.
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:12.880
Like, that's crazy to me.
00:27:13.119 --> 00:27:19.200
Like, when you see all these tweets and everything, like, yeah, there's a few jokes, but there's a trail.
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:23.680
There's a trail of tweets, like of her saying like that.
00:27:24.079 --> 00:27:25.039
That was so well done.
00:27:25.119 --> 00:27:27.119
The trail of treats and the trail of tweets.
00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:27.920
You you nailed it.
00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:30.000
I'm not sure if you did that on purpose, but I appreciate it.
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:33.279
It's I got a kick out of it.
00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:37.519
It's hilarious to me because it's a lot of fans will find a lot of shit, man.
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:43.200
Especially you can't really delete your tweets, so it is what it is.
00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:55.200
I'm just I'm I'm so fascinated by like because again, the timeline to me is what is more interesting, like what what they're saying and what they're doing doesn't really interest me.
00:27:55.279 --> 00:27:58.240
It's the timeline of like when like when did it start?
00:27:58.480 --> 00:28:10.559
Did you get into the career first on your own merit, and then you started doing these things to try to get to climb the the the ladder faster, or did you initiate it that way and then stopped?
00:28:10.640 --> 00:28:26.079
But apparently that's not the Diana Rossini way, it's the Patriot way, but it's not the Diana Rossini way, Patriot way, but yeah, like she got her foot into the door, she started off at Fox, went over to ESPN, now she's with the
athletic.
00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:35.279
You just gotta be careful, that's all.
00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:44.480
Like Verbal tootin' and booting then straight to Huey with the tootha thing up.
00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:50.799
As I said up during the group chat, if the Patriots have a bad year, you already know what's gonna happen.
00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:53.119
And that and that's exactly what we talked about in the chat.
00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:55.759
I said, look, man, by May 1, they're gonna forget about this.
00:28:55.920 --> 00:29:01.119
But once training this is how the cycle always goes, man, by May 1, everybody's gonna forget about it.
00:29:01.279 --> 00:29:08.000
We got we're gonna have the NBA playoffs starting in June, like these things are gonna happen, or May and whatever, or actually at the end of April, I guess.
00:29:08.160 --> 00:29:10.799
But um, we're gonna have that, we're gonna have the draft.
00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:19.759
So there's there'll be a little bit of a spike right then and there, and then it'll dip off, and then training camps will happen, and then it'll spike up again, then I'll dip out.
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:28.319
And as long as the Patriots aren't worse than two and two, they'll get swept under the rug again, rinse and repeat.
00:29:28.559 --> 00:29:31.039
Let the Patriots miss the playoffs.
00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:33.279
Oh, I would love that.
00:29:33.519 --> 00:29:36.640
The there would be no bigger winner in that.
00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:43.759
Well, I shouldn't say bigger winner than me, but it just goes, it does lean into how I've always viewed sports.
00:29:43.839 --> 00:29:46.720
It's like just because you did one thing once, don't mean you're gonna do it again.
00:29:46.880 --> 00:29:50.319
Yeah, like Dan Campbell is the ultimate guy with that.
00:29:50.400 --> 00:29:56.160
I made I made a lot of fun of Dan Campbell in the past, and I have no problem admitting that because I feel like he's a cartoon character.
00:29:56.480 --> 00:30:05.359
But when he said there's no guarantee we're getting back here, that was like that was the realest that anybody's ever said, and he meant it.
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:12.160
Because everybody, I'm not gonna say everybody, but a lot of fans think that it's so easy.
00:30:13.279 --> 00:30:22.559
Well, it's it's the one they think it's easy, and two, they just dumb it down to well, if you got if if you won seven games last year, you can only win eight, right?
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:26.079
You can only get better thinking that nobody else got better.
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:32.640
It's the it's the it's the lowest common, it's the lowest IQ thinking I can ever think of is like you can only get better.
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:38.880
Okay, so if everybody only gets better, that means that the Patriots win the Super Bowl next year and the Seahawks go to what Mars?
00:30:39.440 --> 00:30:40.319
Like, what do you do?
00:30:40.400 --> 00:30:42.720
Like, if you've already won it, what are you supposed to do after the fact?
00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:45.359
Like, it's it's such a dumb theory to me.
00:30:46.400 --> 00:30:47.519
It's never easy.
00:30:47.599 --> 00:30:49.200
It is never easy.
00:30:49.759 --> 00:31:10.400
No, and I I mean it's not supposed to be, but it's just I I would love because I and the only reason why I say that is a victory left me personally is like I remember when the Bengals you like you posted this and then re-tagged me in a few weeks ago, and I was like, the Bengals aren't making the playoffs next year when they made it to Super Bowl and lost, I said they didn't make it to the playoffs next year, and I got laughed at the building.
00:31:10.559 --> 00:31:12.160
They ain't been in the playoffs since.
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:13.519
They haven't.
00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:18.559
And now Joe is up there in the hot seat along with his head coach.
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:20.240
You think Burrow is on the hot seat?
00:31:20.319 --> 00:31:21.119
Because I don't think so.
00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:26.240
Because he's gonna listen, if they have another losing season, he's gonna ask for a trade.
00:31:27.200 --> 00:31:28.720
Oh, you think so?
00:31:29.680 --> 00:31:31.359
He ain't gonna want to be in Cincinnati too much.
00:31:32.079 --> 00:31:37.920
Dude, if he if Joe Burrow asks for a trade, he's going for 93 first-round picks.
00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:45.279
So that's the reason why the Browns wanted to go from three to five first-round picks.
00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:51.920
Yo, he's gonna if he asks for a trade, it's gonna make the Ricky Williams trade look like a dwarf.
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:55.599
Because he the Bengals will have a lot of suitors.
00:31:56.640 --> 00:31:57.519
Oh, for sure.
00:31:57.680 --> 00:32:05.359
Like we it's weird because we're in a we're in a place right now in the NFL where we think that there's so many good quarterbacks, right?
00:32:05.440 --> 00:32:15.599
Like when you do a top 10, I think that most people universally have like four or five, or like the top four to five are kind of interchangeable, but it's the same four or five guys, right?
00:32:16.079 --> 00:32:21.440
But then you start getting into like six through twelve or thirteen, and it's all circumstance.
00:32:21.839 --> 00:32:22.240
Yep.
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:32.720
So when we get to this thing, like if Joe Everybody thinks they the new thing is just get the mid-level quarterback, right?
00:32:32.799 --> 00:32:47.119
Like, we'll be we can because Sam Darnold, it just happened because you won with Sam Darnold, you think you can win with anybody, but there's so many teams that would also give up their left arm, or in Mike Vrabel's case, they give up their to get Joe Burrow.
00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:50.480
I'll never forget he said that in Tennessee, man.
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:56.480
He should have been fired on the spot for saying that, especially in Tennessee.
00:32:56.640 --> 00:32:58.640
The thing is, like you you weren't doing
that in Tennessee anymore.
00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:04.640
No, you weren't doing anything in Tennessee, but actually talking about Tennessee now.
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:17.519
I this what this also wasn't on the on the docket, but you being from Cleveland and LeBron's comments about them moving the Grizzlies from Memphis to Nashville.
00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:21.200
Did you think he was out of pocket for it?
00:33:24.640 --> 00:33:29.599
I don't think he's out of pocket, but I get where he he wasn't the only one that that's hit it.
00:33:29.759 --> 00:33:32.720
It's a lot of it's a lot of NBA players that said it.
00:33:32.960 --> 00:33:52.960
But at the same time, those players, they're they're not just talking about the city of Memphis, they're talking about more than the hotel and what goes on around there because there's a few stories that a few NBA players have been robbed coming from the practice facility, going across the street to the hotel.
00:33:54.079 --> 00:33:57.519
Like on that's bow, especially down there.
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:07.519
It's so weird because like again, like looking at from everybody's angle, like basketball itself means something in Memphis.
00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:10.639
Yeah, like it does, like hoops matter down there.
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:19.599
Um but from a corporate uh version of it, no, it don't.
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:22.639
No, it like it doesn't work there.
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:37.679
Like I feel like he's also I feel like Braun was like he's he's a good messenger, but also sometimes he's the wrong messenger, especially at that point because it's him playing golf with a bunch of white dudes and just getting real casual.
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:42.559
So I understand how the backlash could come from him while also still agreeing with it.
00:34:42.719 --> 00:34:45.760
But just because Braun says it doesn't mean it's gonna happen, though.
00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:46.960
It's just a dude voicing his.
00:34:56.159 --> 00:35:00.559
Oh, he was trying to pull a uh an art model, yeah.
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:06.639
And the rest of the NBA owners told him that you can't do that, you can't move the team to Las Vegas.
00:35:06.880 --> 00:35:12.480
And the Memphis owner was like, here, I'll give you guys extra money to relocate.
00:35:12.559 --> 00:35:14.400
And it was like, no, we're not doing it.
00:35:14.639 --> 00:35:25.760
So now that you mentioned, because I didn't know that, do you think that one of the reasons why that got nixed is because the they already knew about the expansion and there's no reason to move it there because of that plan?
00:35:26.079 --> 00:35:32.159
Yep, they'll get another billionaire in there to to handle that that team with that location.
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:37.599
CR had like eight workers behind him.
00:35:40.000 --> 00:35:44.719
I um I think moving to the Nashville is not a bad idea.
00:35:45.039 --> 00:35:47.920
Like I don't like it.
00:35:48.079 --> 00:35:50.239
I think Nashville decent city.
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:51.760
Sorry, you were cut down a bit.
00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:53.840
You you you don't think it's a bad idea?
00:35:54.480 --> 00:35:56.719
No, to move to Nashville, absolutely not.
00:35:56.800 --> 00:36:00.400
Yeah, like the predators are you know, they love the predators.
00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:02.400
I don't see why they wouldn't love the grizzlies.
00:36:02.639 --> 00:36:05.119
I mean, they barely tolerate the Titans.
00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:12.320
I mean they're building a new stadium there, a new football stadium.
00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:19.679
So what they should do is move them back to Houston, and then the Texans can go like to San Antonio or something.
00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:20.159
St.
00:36:20.400 --> 00:36:22.159
Louis St.
00:36:22.320 --> 00:36:23.440
Louis deserves nothing.
00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:25.920
That is great.
00:36:27.039 --> 00:36:31.599
That is the only reason why he said that is because Detroit already has a football team.
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:36.480
Take away their water.
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:38.559
Damn.
00:36:40.159 --> 00:36:42.079
He's the Donald Trump of Michigan.
00:36:42.159 --> 00:36:44.639
He just like take all the resources.
00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:49.119
Some very fine people.
00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:52.000
Uh only only Jake Strand.
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:53.679
He's the only fine people there.
00:36:58.000 --> 00:37:03.039
But the other talking point that I had was um I was thinking about this the other day.
00:37:03.280 --> 00:37:09.039
Uh when it comes to Jokic, because he really is like a one-of-a-kind kind of player.
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:17.280
But when I was looking back on things, I thought, man, he was he's the dude that we thought we were getting with Arvidus Sabonis.
00:37:17.440 --> 00:37:20.880
And I'm really bummed that Arvidas wasn't able to play as long.
00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:23.519
One, he got into the league late, being from Europe.
00:37:24.000 --> 00:37:26.000
He was like 30 when he got into the league.
00:37:26.159 --> 00:37:30.079
Yeah, he was old as hell when he came over, and then the injuries happened.
00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:45.199
But like, I feel like if we would have got young Arvidas, the game would have we would have been so much the NBA, I'm sorry, would have been so much ahead of schedule when it comes to like what we've got now with Jokic.
00:37:45.360 --> 00:37:52.800
We would have been there in like 2005 as opposed to 2012 or 15 or 16, whatever the case was.
00:37:53.199 --> 00:37:54.960
Yeah, I get where you're coming from.
00:37:55.119 --> 00:38:02.320
I mean, Jokic is not he's not gonna win an MVP this season, even though his his stats are outstanding.
00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:05.199
And who's your MVP, by the way?
00:38:05.280 --> 00:38:06.239
Now that you mentioned that.
00:38:06.400 --> 00:38:07.440
It's SGA.
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:09.280
SGA is gonna win it.
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:14.159
Now, is that who you think is gonna win, or
is that who you believe should be MVP?
00:38:14.639 --> 00:38:16.079
That's who's gonna win.
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:18.639
That's who the media is gonna give it to.
00:38:18.960 --> 00:38:24.559
Like, to be honest, I would not be surprised if it goes SGA Wimby Jokic.
00:38:26.719 --> 00:38:29.679
Yeah, I feel like that's how it how it's probably gonna lay out as well.
00:38:30.000 --> 00:38:31.280
See how what you got?
00:38:32.159 --> 00:38:32.719
Same.
00:38:33.119 --> 00:38:36.000
I think it's gonna be SGA Wimby Jokic.
00:38:36.159 --> 00:38:41.679
The real MVP to me is Jaden Brown, but he's not gonna be.
00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:51.679
I get where you're coming from, but that's why I hate throw out the team record, throw that shit out.
00:38:52.559 --> 00:38:55.840
Didn't nobody expect Boston to be this good this season.
00:38:56.159 --> 00:38:56.639
Nope.
00:38:57.519 --> 00:39:02.960
They thought they thought Boston would be a fringe playoff team.
00:39:03.280 --> 00:39:03.920
At best.
00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:13.039
But I think that's what I think that's what CR is getting to, is like we had them as a maybe a play-in team, and they're the what they're the two-seed right now.
00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:14.880
Yeah, they're the two seed in the east.
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:16.320
No, no, Tatum.
00:39:16.800 --> 00:39:19.199
Drew's gone, Porzingis is gone.
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:21.039
Like, you cut it.
00:39:21.119 --> 00:39:22.880
It looked like they were trying to tank.
00:39:23.039 --> 00:39:30.639
And then there's no way they there's no way that you can have a of a white dude named Peyton and your team be good, and they're good.
00:39:30.880 --> 00:39:33.679
Peyton Pritcher can't go wrong.
00:39:35.519 --> 00:39:36.400
They they are good.
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:39.760
Like, if you're gonna compare Caitlin Clark to him.
00:39:41.360 --> 00:39:42.719
Wait, who did what?
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:47.840
Freddie Miller said Caitlin's Clark game reminds him of Peyton Pritcher.
00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:50.639
I don't know what to do with that comment.
00:39:51.119 --> 00:39:52.960
It was the dumbest shit he didn't say.
00:39:53.360 --> 00:40:00.960
That's that's what that's why you you you can't go to these old, like I'm not okay, it's only with the NBA players.
00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:07.280
The old NBA players, they are gonna say some shit that's gonna make you angry, that's gonna have you angry.
00:40:07.519 --> 00:40:12.719
That they are always hating on the the new generation, the younger generation.
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:18.239
You don't have to worry about with the NFL players, you don't have to worry about that with the Major League Baseball players.
00:40:18.320 --> 00:40:23.679
But when it comes to these NBA players, oh no, they they got none but hating their heart towards the new players.
00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:25.920
I have a theory behind that too.
00:40:26.639 --> 00:40:27.280
It's Dr.
00:40:27.440 --> 00:40:28.559
J's fault.
00:40:29.679 -->
00:40:30.239
It was Dr.
00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:35.280
J's fault because he started it pretty much, him and Will Chamberlain.
00:40:35.840 --> 00:40:37.519
Ain't no Michael Jordan.
00:40:39.119 --> 00:40:40.159
So one there's that.
00:40:40.239 --> 00:40:44.000
I wasn't really thinking about it from like the the older players saying it initially.
00:40:44.159 --> 00:40:56.639
My the way that I approached it was because basketball is such, even though it is obviously a team sport, it is the most isolated and individual of all the team sports.
00:40:56.880 --> 00:41:12.400
And I think that because everybody at one point in time was regarded as the best player at their high school or you know their AAU team or college, that they have a hard time taking the seat back and saying, like, well, back when I did it, I I did that, I got us there.
00:41:12.639 --> 00:41:26.800
And when it comes to other sports, like it is like you maybe pitchers have that kind of confidence when if you're talking to them after they retire, but I feel like Coopers are just man, if coach would have put me in, if coach would have if he didn't not like me, I would have done this.
00:41:26.960 --> 00:41:32.400
Like, there's there's an individual ego to me that just accentuates harder in basketball.
00:41:32.480 --> 00:41:36.480
And I feel like that's why as we get older too, we want to be remembered.
00:41:36.559 --> 00:41:55.920
And I think that basketball is the the team sport that really kind of drives home the well back in my day, is because you're not thinking about things like the rules and everything, you're thinking about how you played and how people regarded you before you got to an other elite people with shortened rosters and shortened availability.
00:41:56.000 --> 00:41:57.599
That's the way that I look at it.
00:41:58.320 --> 00:42:00.480
I get it, I get where you're coming from.
00:42:00.719 --> 00:42:04.960
Is again Reggie Miller shouldn't have said that, man.
00:42:05.119 --> 00:42:09.280
There is no reason to hate hate on Caitlin Clark like that.
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:12.639
Like Caitlin Clark's banana shit.
00:42:13.760 --> 00:42:19.920
To be honest, I would not be surprised if Caitlin Clark led her team to the WNBA finals this season, man.
00:42:20.159 --> 00:42:30.239
I would MVP like she goes bonkers, like she'll probably have like two or three 50-point games this season because that's how good she is.
00:42:30.639 --> 00:42:32.079
Okay, hold on, hold on.
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:37.280
I mean, they look damn good with Kelsey at the helm last week.
00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:39.360
You're right, you're right, you're right.
00:42:40.559 --> 00:42:43.039
You know, we gotta see how she fits back in.
00:42:43.440 --> 00:42:46.400
And she is a turnstyle on defense.
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:59.280
She, I mean, this is the reason why I always say when it comes to her and Paige, I will always take Paige because I know Paige is gonna put in the effort on that defensive end.
00:42:59.599 --> 00:43:01.920
Right, she ain't good either, but at least she tries.
00:43:02.079 --> 00:43:02.719
She's trying.
00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:05.119
So she's Steph Curry, she ain't good, but she tried.
00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:06.000
Yeah, yeah.
00:43:06.159 --> 00:43:07.920
And and Caitlin is James Hart.
00:43:08.159 --> 00:43:08.639
It's Luca.
00:43:09.039 --> 00:43:10.000
Caitlin's Luca.
00:43:11.760 --> 00:43:15.840
It's because in the WNBA, everybody got skills up out there.
00:43:15.920 --> 00:43:17.199
You can't hide.
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:18.960
You cannot hide.
00:43:19.360 --> 00:43:20.239
We're gonna find out.
00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:21.039
I got Atlanta.
00:43:22.400 --> 00:43:22.960
What's that?
00:43:23.119 --> 00:43:23.840
I got Atlanta.
00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:26.800
You got Atlanta.
00:43:28.159 --> 00:43:29.599
Oh man, hell no.
00:43:29.840 --> 00:43:32.320
Oh, he went to straight peace up eight time down.
00:43:32.639 --> 00:43:34.800
Oh I can't I can't go with you on that.
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:37.119
I gotta see how the rest of this free agency is gonna go.
00:43:37.519 --> 00:43:39.840
True, true story, true story.
00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:47.119
Like, I see that New York, they they got their their two big pieces back, but what's gonna happen with John Quill?
00:43:48.800 --> 00:43:49.760
That's a huge one.
00:43:49.920 --> 00:43:53.679
That that's a I'm waiting to see what the Ace is gonna do too.
00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:55.360
Let's see what the Ace is gonna do.
00:43:55.920 --> 00:43:58.239
Can you afford Jackie and Chelsea?
00:44:00.559 --> 00:44:01.519
So who are you going to do?
00:44:01.679 --> 00:44:08.239
I'm glad that I'm glad that you guys can talk women's hoops because I'd be like, uh, can the Houston Comments and Tamika Ketchin still win this year?
00:44:09.440 --> 00:44:11.360
They'll be back in 2028.
00:44:11.679 --> 00:44:12.000
Yeah.
00:44:13.360 --> 00:44:15.920
Lisa Leslie and the Sparks, how we doing there?
00:44:16.159 --> 00:44:17.599
The comics will be back.
00:44:17.760 --> 00:44:20.559
The Rockers from Cleveland will be back.
00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:27.840
So that's why I'm kind of I'm very happy that they got the CBA contract that they wanted.
00:44:28.079 --> 00:44:33.920
Because now with the they're going to get another huge TV deal because of more teams being involved in the league.
00:44:34.079 --> 00:44:38.159
And more money being involved means higher contracts.
00:44:38.800 --> 00:44:40.480
And they they really deserved it.
00:44:40.559 --> 00:44:45.519
I just hate when a lot of dudes up on social media be like, they don't deserve anything.
00:44:45.679 --> 00:44:46.960
They ain't bringing in no money.
00:44:47.039 --> 00:44:49.840
They got the W, they got the NBA helping them out.
00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:56.320
Like, of course, the NBA is gonna help them out because they at the same time, they are expanding.
00:44:56.400 --> 00:45:07.360
As much as they keep expanding, let's just say if it
gets up to I say about 20 teams in about five years, who's not to say that there be around like a hundred billion dollars to bring in?
00:45:07.599 --> 00:45:10.079
How many teams are the WAM and WMA right now?
00:45:10.159 --> 00:45:11.039
Is it 16?
00:45:12.559 --> 00:45:16.239
Yeah, well, it's going to be 16 this season because they got two teams coming in.
00:45:16.320 --> 00:45:18.320
You got a team from Toronto that's coming in.
00:45:18.559 --> 00:45:24.719
And then it's like a team every year or every other year for the next like until 2030.
00:45:25.039 --> 00:45:25.679
Yep.
00:45:26.639 --> 00:45:33.440
See, and uh from a from a business model, because again, I I I don't this is not this is not a diss on women's basketball.
00:45:33.519 --> 00:45:37.119
It's like I just don't watch on the time to really consume everything.
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:41.119
My my my fanhood and my fan width is only so deep.
00:45:41.440 --> 00:45:45.119
Um but from a business model, I think that that's the right way to do things.
00:45:45.199 --> 00:45:54.960
Sometimes you can overexpand and it dilutes a product or it it doesn't meet a need in an environment or a or a location.
00:45:55.199 --> 00:45:58.800
So I think that adding another team every couple of years, I think, is a good way.
00:45:58.960 --> 00:46:10.159
Now I think that seeding is gonna be weird because if you have an odd number of teams on one conference and an even on the other, that might kind of be a juxtaposition of how how are we gonna do seeding for playoffs.
00:46:10.239 --> 00:46:19.519
But I mean, overall, as a business model, adding one or two teams um every few years, I feel like that that that's the way to expand that that particular product with the WNBA.
00:46:19.760 --> 00:46:24.559
Like, okay, the uh Connecticut team, they're gonna move down to Houston.
00:46:25.119 --> 00:46:50.719
So that's gonna put another team, you're gonna have another Detroit team, but at the same time, I look at it this way with the game expanding, and then you got college basketball happening, and you see all the talent outside of UConn and South Carolina, because they're like Hodego from Notre Dame, Betts, uh, Booker down in Texas.
00:46:51.039 --> 00:47:00.320
Like, there is some talent there, and when no by them coming into the WNBA, it's not just all congested only to a few teams.
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:03.679
There's gonna be a lot of talent spread throughout the league.
00:47:08.480 --> 00:47:09.840
Oh, see how you mean it.
00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:15.519
A lot of those women, there's there's a lot of women that aren't in the league and they can hoop, but there's just not enough roster control.
00:47:16.159 --> 00:47:16.639
Yep.
00:47:16.800 --> 00:47:20.239
And that's that's another reason why the CBA helps them a lot now.
00:47:20.480 --> 00:47:25.280
Because normally you can cut a first-round pick and it won't hurt your team.
00:47:25.519 --> 00:47:31.039
Now, by them getting selected, they're
guaranteed a spot and it guarantee their salary.
00:47:32.719 --> 00:47:41.039
I think that that's one of the reasons why I that I kind of champion for expansion is will the the product be the same?
00:47:41.280 --> 00:47:49.360
No, but there's a lot of there's a lot of people, regardless of gender or whatever, who can play the sport at a very high level.
00:47:49.599 --> 00:48:00.960
And yes, sometimes they're politics, yes, sometimes you peaked in high school, so you got to go to a great school, and your name recognition still carries you into the professional leagues.
00:48:01.119 --> 00:48:02.159
Yeah, there's part of that.
00:48:02.320 --> 00:48:07.360
Uh, we also see that some people don't work as hard, you know, because it came to them so easy at the lower levels.
00:48:07.519 --> 00:48:14.079
Once you become a professional, you don't have the same drive, you're you're you've made it, you've got your guaranteed money, and now you're done.
00:48:14.239 --> 00:48:29.760
I feel like expansion does help, or just different leagues help because there's so many people who can play and are driven that why not have some some other expansion either in the league that you're in or have supplemental leagues to act as like a minor league system.
00:48:29.840 --> 00:48:38.559
I think it's weird that the like major league baseball has a college league and then multiple you know, farm systems, but like minor league systems.
00:48:38.639 --> 00:48:41.840
But we don't really have that or care about that in any other sport, really.
00:48:41.920 --> 00:48:43.039
I think it's kind of banana system.
00:48:43.679 --> 00:48:45.039
You want to know something?
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:52.239
All right, well, Major League Baseball, there's they got an international pull.
00:48:53.280 --> 00:49:09.840
NBA, you still got international pull, but at the same time, they NBA has the G-League, but with Major League Baseball, they have all these minor league teams that you you so much hoops you gotta go through just to make it to the majors.
00:49:10.239 --> 00:49:14.239
Like, all right, I look at I've been bitching about the Guardians.
00:49:14.320 --> 00:49:17.039
They used the number one pick up on this kid.
00:49:17.599 --> 00:49:22.000
They brought him up Yeah, they got him down in double A, triple A.
00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:29.280
And I'm like, I'm looking at the same guys from his draft class make it to the major leagues way before him.
00:49:29.599 --> 00:49:34.960
And I know why they're doing it, and I hate it because the arbitration, what's that?
00:49:35.199 --> 00:49:41.119
The arbitration, the arbitration, is you can say the service manipulation, the service requirements, yeah.
00:49:41.199 --> 00:49:50.719
Because you have to serve like what five years before you can get yeah, and and and at bottom bringing them up like after May 1st, that that can hold them over for another year.
00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:55.519
That was the whole Chris Bryant situation back in like 17, like that was a huge issue back in the day.
00:49:55.760 --> 00:49:57.679
Like, get rid of that rule, man.
00:49:58.000 --> 00:50:13.599
And that's another reason why you don't see some of the I'll say the minor league players that that rightfully deserve to make it to the majors because the teams want to hold them down, and now by them holding them down, let's say they get injured or they don't play at in a consistent level now.
00:50:13.840 --> 00:50:17.119
The organization's like, we can just be done with them, we could just move on without them.
00:50:17.440 --> 00:50:38.800
Do you think it's the reason why the pirates did because again, I I haven't do I I don't even remember the kid's name, but I know they got they got skins who so he's he's what 19 and already getting MLB reps due to the but see this is the thing the reason why they brought him up now is because he agreed to the contract that they gave him, and it's a terrible deal for him long term.
00:50:39.199 --> 00:50:40.239
But see, this is the thing.
00:50:40.400 --> 00:50:43.119
Like, I think what was the contract that he signed, though?
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:45.360
Nine years, 140 million.
00:50:47.360 --> 00:50:49.519
He'll be 28 by the end of that deal.
00:50:49.679 --> 00:50:52.079
And they bought out three years of free agency.
00:50:52.239 --> 00:50:54.079
Yeah, bought out three years of free agency.
00:50:54.239 --> 00:50:58.400
Let's just say if he his first six years, he's an elite player.
00:50:59.199 --> 00:51:04.000
If he had hit the free agent market, what he'd have been what, 25, 26 years old?
00:51:04.159 --> 00:51:05.920
He'd have got hit the free agent market.
00:51:06.000 --> 00:51:10.239
Who's not to say that the Dodgers or the Mets or the Yankees throw a blank check at him?
00:51:11.039 --> 00:51:15.440
By that time, we look at$300,$800,$900 million by that time.
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:15.840
Yeah.
00:51:16.159 --> 00:51:19.519
So do you so you think that what he signed was a bad contract?
00:51:19.599 --> 00:51:22.239
Because I can look at it as a good angle for multiple reasons.
00:51:22.480 --> 00:51:24.639
It's a good it's good for him right now.
00:51:25.519 --> 00:51:33.760
But let's just say later on into that contract, as he's moving on and he's getting better and better, and he's one of the faces of the league, yeah.
00:51:33.840 --> 00:51:34.800
That's a bad contract.
00:51:35.199 --> 00:51:39.280
Because now the power they're not gonna go to him like we're we're gonna extend you.
00:51:39.360 --> 00:51:42.239
No, no, but baseball, they don't they don't do that.
00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:45.039
But the thing is, like, what if he's not that good?
00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:50.880
What if he's then then he becomes like the white Bobby Bunia, but for not as long.
00:51:51.679 --> 00:51:59.920
But then you gotta look at someone like Ronald Acunya, who signed an eight-year, hundred million dollar deal, and he's outplayed that 10 times over.
00:52:00.000
--> 00:52:03.840
Yeah, and you won't see free agency until he's like 30.
00:52:04.400 --> 00:52:17.679
But we've also we've also seen him, we've also seen in professional sports, they if you are if you actually are great, they have no problem signing the guy that has the name cachet and and the the stats behind it.
00:52:17.840 --> 00:52:20.079
Kirk Cousins is still getting paid.
00:52:20.480 --> 00:52:22.800
He has the greatest, he has the greatest agent of all time.
00:52:23.440 --> 00:52:25.679
Greatest agent of all time, HOFR.
00:52:25.760 --> 00:52:26.639
He's goaded.
00:52:26.800 --> 00:52:35.920
And but like with this kid, because he's only 19, maybe what he's doing is he's doing like the Albert Hainsworth thing, and he's gonna work the system, get all of his money, and then not play.
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:37.599
Maybe maybe he's not gonna be that good.
00:52:37.679 --> 00:52:39.599
Maybe he knew going into it, I'm not.
00:52:39.679 --> 00:52:42.320
Man, I was just I'm here for a good time, not a long time.
00:52:42.400 --> 00:52:44.000
I'm here to make my money and dip out.
00:52:44.159 --> 00:52:46.880
Then it was one of the contract I wanted the guardians to pick.
00:52:46.960 --> 00:52:52.400
He was one of the guys I wanted the guardians to pick two years ago, and they passed on him because he's in high school.
00:52:53.039 --> 00:52:59.599
I'm just saying, like this, we have with it being a nine-year deal, I would say the three-year rule.
00:52:59.679 --> 00:53:05.039
I know it sounds like a very, very uh an antiquated way of looking at things.
00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:13.360
We we largely do it with quarterbacks, but after three years, if this man's out kicked his coverage and outperformed it, yeah, it's gonna look like a bad deal.
00:53:13.440 --> 00:53:17.280
But if this man struggles, it's the ultimate fleece.
00:53:17.679 --> 00:53:21.599
Listen, if he has Scott Boars as his agent, he wants to sign that deal.
00:53:22.079 --> 00:53:23.760
Boy, you ain't lying.
00:53:26.000 --> 00:53:30.559
Anybody that's represented by Scott Bores, you are not signing a cheap contract.
00:53:31.119 --> 00:53:32.159
Nope, nope, nope.
00:53:32.800 --> 00:53:39.840
I'd want something in there like an overperform clause where I can opt out or something like that.
00:53:41.599 --> 00:53:46.000
If he's the best player, you want that you want that thing incentive laced.
00:53:46.320 --> 00:53:49.119
Yes, yes, got to.
00:53:49.519 --> 00:53:57.599
Like, that's why I looked at at Paul Skeens and I'm just like, he won the Cy Young last year, he didn't win that many games, but he was still dominant.
00:53:57.760 --> 00:54:03.760
And I'm like, I know the pirates didn't go to his agent at all and at or ask for an extension.
00:54:04.400 --> 00:54:13.360
Well, what's wild too is because like the the pirates have traditionally been like almost like the Cincinnati Bengals of baseball.
00:54:14.480 --> 00:54:18.239
The pirates are the MLB's farm system, yeah.
00:54:21.199 --> 00:54:23.360
Mario said they pay their players.
00:54:23.599 --> 00:54:27.599
Mario said Boris would have got him 9,300 off the bat.
00:54:27.920 --> 00:54:28.559
Yeah.
00:54:30.000 --> 00:54:32.000
Because Scott doesn't play, man.
00:54:32.639 --> 00:54:36.800
Anytime when his players hit the free agent, he ain't taking no low ball deals.
00:54:36.880 --> 00:54:39.760
He he's getting you, he's getting all of your money for you.
00:54:40.079 --> 00:54:40.960
He's a dog.
00:54:41.440 --> 00:54:46.239
Well, because he's not looking at the player, he's yeah, he he represents Kyle Tucker.
00:54:46.719 --> 00:54:49.920
Tucker took a shorter, shorter deal from the Dodgers.
00:54:50.000 --> 00:54:50.639
I'm sorry, man.
00:54:50.719 --> 00:54:51.280
I'm sorry.
00:54:51.519 --> 00:54:52.320
Sorry, Cr.
00:54:52.960 --> 00:54:58.559
He took a shorter deal for the Dodgers rather than sounding a long-term deal with the Cubs.
00:54:59.920 --> 00:55:01.119
I didn't want him.
00:55:01.280 --> 00:55:03.119
I didn't want him there from jump.
00:55:03.599 --> 00:55:05.199
It was a stupid trade.
00:55:05.360 --> 00:55:07.119
Now look at Cam Smith.
00:55:07.519 --> 00:55:09.840
Look at Cam Smith thriving.
00:55:10.800 --> 00:55:11.280
The brother.
00:55:11.519 --> 00:55:12.880
You're gonna do it like that, man.
00:55:13.119 --> 00:55:13.760
The brother.
00:55:13.920 --> 00:55:15.920
He out there thriving in Houston.
00:55:16.159 --> 00:55:18.639
You know how many brothers we got here on the Cubs?
00:55:19.280 --> 00:55:19.440
No.
00:55:20.239 --> 00:55:23.199
No, you ain't got none in the farm system.
00:55:23.679 --> 00:55:24.239
Hell no.
00:55:24.719 --> 00:55:28.159
If they are they down there picking cotton or something, they ain't playing baseball.
00:55:29.199 --> 00:55:32.639
Y'all ain't got Hayward or uh Hayward still hanging around.
00:55:33.199 --> 00:55:36.960
Oh man, it's hey he that's my hero.
00:55:37.119 --> 00:55:38.320
Without him.
00:55:39.039 --> 00:55:41.360
Y'all don't win the 2016 World Series.
00:55:41.519 --> 00:55:42.159
I know.
00:55:44.960 --> 00:55:46.880
Where's Steve Bartman when you need him?
00:55:47.039 --> 00:55:48.480
Thank God for that rain delay.
00:55:48.559 --> 00:55:49.519
I swear to God, man.
00:55:49.920 --> 00:55:51.599
Man, it wasn't even raining that hard.
00:55:51.760 --> 00:55:53.519
Hey man, the wheels was falling off.
00:55:53.599 --> 00:55:54.960
We was about to lose.
00:56:06.079 --> 00:56:16.960
So the last thing I had on the uh the talking point, if you guys, if you guys have something you would uh that you want to uh bring up before the the Jalen Hurts part of this, uh go ahead and go ahead and let me know.
00:56:17.199 --> 00:56:35.440
But that was my last talking point was this whole uh the Jalen Hurts piece where I don't really know what Philadelphia is doing anymore because we've we've given Roseman a lot of praise for how he's constructed these rosters and the moves that he makes.
00:56:35.599 --> 00:56:46.079
And is this something like behind the scenes where they want to get Jalen out of town because they believe AJ Brown?
00:56:46.400 --> 00:56:48.559
I don't I don't think they're trying to get him out of town.
00:56:48.639 --> 00:56:50.480
I think they're trying to motivate him.
00:56:52.000 --> 00:57:10.320
He doesn't have any guaranteed money left up on his contract after the season, so they're trying to motivate him, like, hey, we need you to be a better leader, be a better player, like, cuz he can't play like how he did last season and thinks in he's gonna get top three, top five money.
00:57:10.639 --> 00:57:30.639
But see, that's what's so weird is like I thought the leadership thing was like the whole thing that we leaned on him, like we leaned hard into he's the leader of this team, even though he lacks certain physical, not physical attributes, but I mean when we think about pure passes of the football, Jalen Hurts is way down the line before we get to him.
00:57:30.800 --> 00:57:36.079
And I thought the thing that we thought most highly about him was the intangibles.
00:57:36.559 --> 00:57:42.960
So if you thought that this guy could manage a locker room, like why would you not want to bring him back?
00:57:43.199 --> 00:57:56.320
Like to see when I read the story to hear that from 12 different Philly Philadelphia Eagles personnel players, I'm like, this sounds like somebody's against whom.
00:57:57.360 --> 00:57:59.440
You mean more than AJ Brown?
00:57:59.760 --> 00:58:01.360
I'll say it's more than AJ Brown.
00:58:01.440 --> 00:58:05.119
It could be somebody up there on the defense, it could be somebody up there on the offensive line.
00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:19.039
I feel like it's just uh I feel like now that we're in the offseason, people are really taking notice of what AJ Brown said and what he's like his antics, and they're going, Yeah, we see it.
00:58:19.119 --> 00:58:20.480
I don't think they're trying to motivate him.
00:58:20.559 --> 00:58:29.119
I think what they're trying to do is because of the guaranteed money and the length of his contract, they're saying, We're okay moving on without you, dog.
00:58:29.360 --> 00:58:33.760
Like we we can go, we've you've seen what we've brought in to make things work.
00:58:34.079 --> 00:58:34.960
We don't need you.
00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:37.280
That's that's the way that I'm interpreting it.
00:58:37.840 --> 00:58:41.760
Who are they moving on to with at quarterback?
00:58:43.119 --> 00:58:46.960
I think that they it's it's not quite the same.
00:58:47.679 --> 00:58:55.360
Like you and I, we talk about this quite regularly with the uh court like coaching thinking that they can just fix anybody.
00:58:56.000 --> 00:59:09.280
I don't think that they necessarily do that with Jalen Hurts, like they're not going to that extreme, but because they have seen so many times we know how to get talent, we know how to acquire talent.
00:59:09.519 --> 00:59:13.199
We can
we can be the same type of team without you.
00:59:13.440 --> 00:59:20.320
Yes, we did it with you, but I'm pretty sure that we can do it without you, and I feel like that's that's where they're at right now.
00:59:20.639 --> 00:59:24.159
You think Philly fans gonna turn on next season if he starts off slow?
00:59:24.400 --> 00:59:27.679
I think that I think that Philly female fans will never turn on him.
00:59:28.880 --> 00:59:31.199
So Uncle Phil is gonna turn on him.
00:59:32.400 --> 00:59:32.800
Oh, yeah.
00:59:32.960 --> 00:59:33.840
He's gonna be rabble.
00:59:34.719 --> 00:59:37.920
Yeah, it's the Rable thing.
00:59:38.000 --> 00:59:43.599
If they start one and three, he's gonna be like that that good look, that good looking mother gotta get up out of here.
00:59:43.840 --> 00:59:45.840
I can see him doing it too, man.
00:59:48.000 --> 00:59:48.880
Jesus.
00:59:49.679 --> 00:59:55.280
It's I just I hate that they waited till the middle of the offseason to do it.
00:59:55.440 --> 00:59:59.840
Like, why do you mean do this immediately like after they lost the playoff game?
01:00:02.960 --> 01:00:05.360
So I can I can understand why.
01:00:05.599 --> 01:00:13.920
There's there's part of it that I appreciate why they waited because anytime that a team does something directly after a game, to me, that's an emotional decision.
01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:16.320
It's not a it's not something you actually thought about.
01:00:16.480 --> 01:00:19.519
It's just I'm in the moment, I'm emotional.
01:00:20.320 --> 01:00:23.039
If I don't do something, they're gonna think I'm weak, and so on and so forth.
01:00:23.119 --> 01:00:25.920
So I'm glad they waited to to have this out.
01:00:26.320 --> 01:00:30.400
But the timing is again, the timing, we're right before the draft.
01:00:31.119 --> 01:00:34.239
Maybe there's a team like you we talked about with Joe Burrow next year.
01:00:34.800 --> 01:00:36.400
Maybe there's a team who's like, you know what?
01:00:36.719 --> 01:00:56.960
We have the offensive line, we have we think that he's a good leader, but they're like it's just weird how the how the dynamic has shifts so goddamn quickly with this dude is that we thought the intangibles are the thing that made him and Philadelphia great, and now like Mario just said, they're saying that he's uncoachable.
01:00:57.519 --> 01:01:06.800
I don't know how you can be uncoachable when you have a new head coach or a new coordinator every seven and a half months since you were since you were in college.
01:01:07.119 --> 01:01:15.360
But at the same time, this is where like Mario said swap him for Joey Burr.
01:01:15.440 --> 01:01:16.000
Get out of here, dog.
01:01:16.159 --> 01:01:16.719
I love you, Mario.
01:01:18.320 --> 01:01:19.599
Get Mario out of here.
01:01:19.840 --> 01:01:20.559
I listen to the case.
01:01:22.159 --> 01:01:26.000
I'll I will drive to Chicago just to fight Uncle Phil if they got Joe Joe Burrow.
01:01:28.880 --> 01:01:31.280
Because then you know
what's gonna happen, man.
01:01:32.000 --> 01:01:33.760
With all those weapons, they got man.
01:01:33.840 --> 01:01:35.440
No, I ain't doing this.
01:01:36.880 --> 01:01:39.280
Joe Burrow is the second best quarterback in the NFL.
01:01:41.599 --> 01:01:45.280
Is that wait, is it wait, is that satire or is that that's real talk?
01:01:45.360 --> 01:01:47.199
You think he's the second best quarterback in the NFL?
01:01:48.000 --> 01:01:53.679
And the only reason I'm taking my homeboy over him is because he got a couple of them things already.
01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:55.199
I I love Joe Burton.
01:01:55.440 --> 01:01:58.400
Yeah, I'm not trade my mama for Joe Burton for Joe Burton.
01:01:58.880 --> 01:02:00.239
You trade Caleb Williams for him.
01:02:02.079 --> 01:02:13.119
Oh you trained my metric, my connection.
01:02:13.360 --> 01:02:15.280
Oh what I trade him for.
01:02:19.119 --> 01:02:19.760
Yeah.
01:02:20.320 --> 01:02:22.559
Okay, yeah, all right, yeah.
01:02:23.119 --> 01:02:25.039
Because I I know what Joe Burrow is.
01:02:25.119 --> 01:02:28.960
I understand what Caleb can be, but I know what Joe is.
01:02:29.199 --> 01:02:32.239
See, and like, and that's the thing, like this this this is also again.
01:02:32.320 --> 01:02:40.079
We come like LaShawn, you and I touched on at the very beginning, is that we have an idea of who at the top four or five guys are, everybody else is interchangeable.
01:02:40.159 --> 01:02:46.480
I think that right now, Caleb Williams is still in the interchangeable mode where if he's on a trash team, he doesn't look good.
01:02:46.559 --> 01:02:52.320
If you put him with a great offensive line, a couple weapons, he still looks like he would is in Chicago right now or better.
01:02:52.480 --> 01:02:55.199
But Burrow, we've I'm I'm with CR on that.
01:02:55.280 --> 01:03:05.599
Like we've seen what he looks like with an awful offensive line, but we've also seen him with arguably the best wide receiver combo in the NFL as well.
01:03:05.679 --> 01:03:08.079
So I mean he makes them go.
01:03:08.320 --> 01:03:09.519
He can make them go.
01:03:09.760 --> 01:03:13.440
You put Joe Burrow behind that Bears offensive line last year.
01:03:13.599 --> 01:03:14.800
Oh, he'd cook.
01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:16.480
Yeah, easy.
01:03:16.800 --> 01:03:17.360
Easy.
01:03:17.519 --> 01:03:18.320
Caleb was better.
01:03:18.559 --> 01:03:28.320
That actually, that actually, if you put Joe Burrow behind if you swap those two teams, I think Cincinnati has the exact same season and Chicago is in the NFL.
01:03:30.960 --> 01:03:36.239
Yeah, like Burrow with Ben Johnson, I got one.
01:03:36.480 --> 01:03:43.920
Well, the thing is the other thing too is like because you we we we think highly of, I know that DJ Moore isn't there anymore, but like we think highly of DJ Moore.
01:03:44.000 --> 01:03:51.920
We think that Roman Dunze is a like you you have your expectations of your other wide receivers along with your tight ends and the in the running back situation.
01:03:52.079 --> 01:03:53.440
Y'all got talent everywhere.
01:03:53.519 --> 01:04:00.719
And if you had this year's Joe Burrow in Chicago, that would have been a problem.
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:03.199
That's it.
01:04:04.239 --> 01:04:06.000
I'll come there and fight you too, Cr.
01:04:06.159 --> 01:04:08.000
Go ahead and trade for Joe Burrow.
01:04:08.239 --> 01:04:11.199
I mean, I'm I'm cool, I'm cool with Light Brain.
01:04:11.280 --> 01:04:17.039
Like, we we're gonna rock it out, but if we somehow got Joe Burrow, I wouldn't be upset at all.
01:04:17.440 --> 01:04:24.400
This raises a good question because we we talk about the hypotheticals, like what the trade value is of players.
01:04:25.360 --> 01:04:34.079
Since we're talking about Chicago, what would be the the trade compensation that Chicago would have to do to get Joe Burrow?
01:04:34.159 --> 01:04:43.199
Because I mean, like Caleb is younger, still under contract with a rookie, and that's why the Bengals would have to give us more than we've given them.
01:04:43.440 --> 01:04:45.519
I was gonna say, like, you trade Caleb really.
01:04:45.920 --> 01:04:50.320
No, this is this Caleb in the first round pick for Joe Burrow.
01:04:51.519 --> 01:04:53.119
I think it's the other way around.
01:04:53.280 --> 01:04:57.119
You think that we got I don't Joe Joe is the head?
01:04:57.360 --> 01:05:00.800
I get it, but you already he already got the big deal.
01:05:00.960 --> 01:05:04.800
Yeah, Caleb still got three years left on his rookie deal.
01:05:05.199 --> 01:05:10.880
That's not gonna last for that's not gonna last forward as a rookie, so he gotta be pushing 30.
01:05:11.119 --> 01:05:17.760
K Caleb is not gonna wait, he's not gonna play out his entire rookie year, like he's gonna get an extension after this season, I would imagine.
01:05:18.079 --> 01:05:19.760
That's what people here are saying.
01:05:19.840 --> 01:05:28.400
Like, that's why the Bears didn't have him restructured deals because they're trying to plan for Caleb's extension, which is some cheap ass shit, if you ask me.
01:05:28.639 --> 01:05:33.199
No, but let's just say, all right, let's I'm gonna just put this out there.
01:05:33.599 --> 01:05:39.599
Caleb wins MVP, he leads you guys to the NFC championship game, but y'all lose.
01:05:39.920 --> 01:05:45.519
The Bears go to him and say, We're we're willing to give you 250 million guaranteed.
01:05:45.679 --> 01:05:47.119
You think he he does it?
01:05:48.800 --> 01:05:51.519
Who's the what's the highest most guarantee they got now?
01:05:52.480 --> 01:05:53.679
I think it's uh Dak.
01:05:54.000 --> 01:05:56.400
Dak at what 231, 234?
01:05:56.719 --> 01:05:58.719
Well, Deshaun had guaranteed 250.
01:05:59.199 --> 01:05:59.679
No, he got two.
01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:00.559
230.
01:06:00.800 --> 01:06:01.599
Oh, 230.
01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:02.000
Okay.
01:06:03.119 --> 01:06:03.840
I don't know.
01:06:06.159 --> 01:06:09.519
It's like he's a different
kind of cat.
01:06:09.760 --> 01:06:12.719
Like he might try to like really reset that market.
01:06:13.119 --> 01:06:15.760
I mean, 250 guaranteed is resetting the market.
01:06:15.920 --> 01:06:18.400
I get it, but he might he might want more.
01:06:19.920 --> 01:06:25.920
Like, I to be honest, I'm I can see like let's say the Ravens win next year.
01:06:26.239 --> 01:06:32.320
Lamar going to the Ravens, and he's gonna probably say he's gonna want 240, 250 million guarantee guaranteed.
01:06:32.559 --> 01:06:34.639
And they're gonna have to give it to him.
01:06:36.079 --> 01:06:45.440
I still think if if Pat goes next year and he wins another Super Bowl and another MVP, he can go to the Chiefs and be like, listen, scrap that whole deal.
01:06:45.760 --> 01:06:48.239
I want everything fully guaranteed.
01:06:48.480 --> 01:06:53.760
Yeah, because he's been underpaid for a while for the past four years.
01:06:54.639 --> 01:07:11.280
Well, the thing that I the way that I look at these quarterbacks, and I know that this is a very unpopular opinion, and it always has been, is I don't feel like there's a reason to pay every quarterback who you drafted top of the market money.
01:07:11.519 --> 01:07:23.280
Like, we can't lose the guy who did who got us to the the playoffs after a drought or the guy who got us to an a whatever championship game, because people dumb it down to that's the quarterback, he's the best player on the team.
01:07:23.360 --> 01:07:24.000
We need to pay him.
01:07:24.079 --> 01:07:26.000
We can't we can't lose that guy, right?
01:07:26.480 --> 01:07:37.440
And yeah, you can like there's two or three dudes who you write a blank check to, but if you don't have that dude, the Patriot way actually works this way at the most important position.
01:07:37.760 --> 01:07:48.079
Man, if you've got a guy who has the cachet of a Justin Herbert, and let's just say you you flame out again, bro, trade that man, get four first round picks.
01:07:48.239 --> 01:07:49.360
That's the way that I look.
01:07:49.440 --> 01:07:57.760
I I know that you don't like the way I talk about quarterbacks, you hate the way that I talk about quarterbacks, but you you can't disrespect the best position in the game.
01:07:58.000 --> 01:07:58.639
I can.
01:07:58.719 --> 01:07:59.440
I just did.
01:07:59.519 --> 01:08:00.400
I'll do it again.
01:08:00.559 --> 01:08:01.280
Watch me.
01:08:01.519 --> 01:08:06.800
Like you gotta pay at it's a quarter, it's a quarterback lead.
01:08:07.039 --> 01:08:10.320
I know, but we just want to go as far as a quarterback take you.
01:08:10.559 --> 01:08:19.439
I know, but but the thing is, I disagree with that completely because we just talked about Jalen Hurts about being replaceable and the time.
01:08:19.760 --> 01:08:34.640
Same thing with like Mario said, like, I'll I'll give you Purdy and Iuk tomorrow, which isn't a great trade, but I mean it's just like wey more Mario's throwing everything into it, everything into the trade,
man.
01:08:34.880 --> 01:08:38.399
I'll I'll give you current Jerry Rice as we speak.
01:08:40.640 --> 01:08:59.760
I just I just feel like we're getting to a point where, especially like with these guys who have been in the league for uh they're not old, but the guys like Herbert and Lamar and uh Josh Allen, they like you said, they're in their almost their 30s now, but they hold so much cachet and so much name recognition.
01:08:59.840 --> 01:09:02.960
Where could you imagine the trade value for Josh Allen?
01:09:03.439 --> 01:09:08.560
Those guys have multiple holes, and he has multiple holes in his game.
01:09:08.880 --> 01:09:13.520
If they traded him for just a slew of picks and players, I'd be okay with it.
01:09:13.680 --> 01:09:16.960
I would be the same way with with with with the same thing with the chargers.
01:09:17.279 --> 01:09:26.560
Like with he is Justin Herbert's done nothing in the postseason, and they flame out every damn year, but he still is considered a top six, seven, eight quarterback.
01:09:26.800 --> 01:09:28.560
Y'all ain't doing anything, anyways.
01:09:28.720 --> 01:09:36.720
Go ahead and move on and retool and get all the holes, fill them up, and then go ahead and go up, go ahead and go 10 and 7 again.
01:09:36.800 --> 01:09:40.640
Now, now, are you filling those holes up with a franchise quarterback?
01:09:41.359 --> 01:09:43.840
We don't think that Jalen Hurts is necessarily one.
01:09:44.000 --> 01:09:46.079
We don't think that Brock Purdy necessarily is one.
01:09:46.159 --> 01:09:57.039
And like if you get an extension, especially uh, I say a top seven market placement, you you are a franchise quarterback.
01:09:57.279 --> 01:10:01.359
No, I I think that you get designated as one, but I don't think you actually are.
01:10:01.520 --> 01:10:06.239
We we saw Blake Bortles and Jimmy Garoppolo get paid.
01:10:07.920 --> 01:10:12.800
One led his team to a Super Bowl burr, the other one just flamed out.
01:10:13.039 --> 01:10:21.279
But see, led or now Purdy, I will give you credit because I I think that Purdy is better than what most people give him credit for.
01:10:21.600 --> 01:10:24.319
But again, like they they've done that.
01:10:24.560 --> 01:10:29.600
San Francisco is thinking about the same way that I think that Philly right now is thinking about it with Jalen Hurts.
01:10:29.680 --> 01:10:31.680
Is like we can do this with anybody.
01:10:31.920 --> 01:10:36.479
The whole reason why we swung on Trey Lance is we thought we were a young quarterback away.
01:10:36.560 --> 01:10:51.680
Now they missed on the pick, but they they're so the the the ego is so strong in some of these owners and some of these GMs where we can do with anybody, and if it's that strong, stop paying mediocre quarterbacks top flight money.
01:10:53.359 --> 01:10:54.560
You got to.
01:10:55.039 --> 01:10:59.199
I don't think you do, like I know that's that's that's that's the trend, and that's what we've done.
01:10:59.279 --> 01:11:04.239
I just I firmly believe that it just because that's the way we've done it, I don't think it has to continue, though.
01:11:04.560 --> 01:11:09.279
Quarterback, defensive end, left tackle.
01:11:09.520 --> 01:11:12.800
Those are the three most important positions in the game.
01:11:13.199 --> 01:11:16.800
You pay those, and then you figure out the rest.
01:11:17.359 --> 01:11:19.520
Mario said I didn't need a Jimmy G reminder.
01:11:19.600 --> 01:11:20.079
I love that.
01:11:20.239 --> 01:11:24.399
But the thing is that, but the thing is that so this is this is what we've always been told, right?
01:11:24.720 --> 01:11:41.279
You pay the quarterback, then we've been told you win with a quarterback on a rookie contract, which is to me one of the dumbest arguments ever because I think there's only been what it's been Mahomes and Russell Wilson, I think, won Super Bowls on their rookie deals, but that's pretty much it.
01:11:41.600 --> 01:11:47.920
And then now the narrative has shifted to well, all you need to do is get a mid-level quarterback, just go get you a Sam Darnold.
01:11:48.079 --> 01:11:53.680
That's the reason why I land so firmly on stop paying mediocre quarterbacks.
01:11:57.520 --> 01:11:58.000
Huh?
01:11:58.159 --> 01:12:00.800
I said Kirk Cousins is gonna lead the Raiders to the Super Bowl.
01:12:00.960 --> 01:12:04.159
I swear to god, man, if I was in Ohio right now, I'd you up.
01:12:04.399 --> 01:12:09.680
There's no you said it.
01:12:09.760 --> 01:12:11.840
You said mid-level quarterbacks, man.
01:12:12.159 --> 01:12:13.279
No, the Raiders did.
01:12:13.359 --> 01:12:15.439
They gave 40 million just to get back up.
01:12:15.760 --> 01:12:17.840
I'm saying that the circumstance matters.
01:12:17.920 --> 01:12:33.119
I I have this the the same reason, the same mentality I have with don't pay mediocre quarterbacks top five money is the same reason why I have the same stance of it's okay to draft a running back in the first round high if your team matters.
01:12:33.279 --> 01:12:34.560
I like Ashton Genty.
01:12:34.720 --> 01:12:39.359
The Raiders drafting him in the top eight last year was stupid.
01:12:39.520 --> 01:12:44.159
But if another team did it and everything else fell, I would have agreed with it.
01:12:45.760 --> 01:12:50.960
That's why I don't want the the Chiefs to stay away from the you don't want them to get.
01:12:52.399 --> 01:12:57.039
I I think the Chiefs are they gonna draft none but defense because that's what they need.
01:12:57.439 --> 01:13:00.159
They will go they a little hard to paint on on the defense side.
01:13:00.800 --> 01:13:05.840
They needed some weapons too, because I don't know what Rasheed Rice is was gonna happen with him.
01:13:06.079 --> 01:13:07.520
Oh you ain't here.
01:13:07.760 --> 01:13:09.520
The the NFL threw that out.
01:13:09.680 --> 01:13:18.880
I'm I get it, but it's it's always one thing after another, so it's like, man, we that's that's the thing, too, is like just because one
thing goes away doesn't mean another thing can't potentially happen.
01:13:18.960 --> 01:13:26.479
And that's the the Chiefs have done a good job of like they've taken some risks on some people, like the type Tyree kills, another dude who they took a risk on.
01:13:26.560 --> 01:13:27.600
That's the reason why he fell so much.
01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:29.439
I think Kareem Hunt was another dude.
01:13:29.680 --> 01:13:45.359
Like they found value with the the off-the-field issues, and it not be so much of an issue in-house, but Rasheed Rice is getting to a point where we don't care how talented you are, I don't know if I can trust you.
01:13:46.079 --> 01:13:46.720
True.
01:13:47.039 --> 01:13:49.199
Puka's gonna be up there next.
01:13:52.640 --> 01:13:53.439
Puka out here.
01:13:53.680 --> 01:13:54.000
Wow.
01:13:54.319 --> 01:13:57.520
Uh man, listen, you know how much money he potentially lost?
01:13:57.680 --> 01:14:00.720
He was supposed to be getting the next contract at the JSN.
01:14:00.960 --> 01:14:05.279
I was gonna say he was supposed to get the JSN money, and there's a reason why he hasn't gotten paid yet.
01:14:06.399 --> 01:14:11.439
The brands went to his age and was just like, Yeah, you're gonna have to wait till after next season.
01:14:11.760 --> 01:14:14.239
Pook would be like, Man, come in, let me bite you, girl.
01:14:14.560 --> 01:14:16.239
I can't believe he did that.
01:14:18.319 --> 01:14:20.000
He's a damn fool.
01:14:21.439 --> 01:14:27.119
It's it's just it's so wild because it's so weird because I remember it.
01:14:27.439 --> 01:14:36.159
I I love just the fact that like nobody knows any of these dudes, but like behind a keyboard, everybody capes up for everybody until something wild comes out.
01:14:36.239 --> 01:14:41.840
Like Deshaun Watson had a pristine record until what happened in Houston.
01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:56.800
Puka was looked at as the great American story of guy who gets hurt, falls in the draft, and then balls out and is gonna get a great contract because look what hard work and perseverance can prove to you.
01:14:57.039 --> 01:14:59.520
And then we go, Oh, well, I didn't know he was a racist.
01:14:59.600 --> 01:15:01.600
I know that he was out biting people.
01:15:01.760 --> 01:15:05.600
Like, like these people behind keyboards have no idea who the hell these athletes are.
01:15:05.680 --> 01:15:10.079
We just want to pretend like we know who they are to sound smart, but then you just look like a dummy.
01:15:10.319 --> 01:15:10.960
Yep.
01:15:12.960 --> 01:15:16.960
But all right, fellas, I've got to get up out of here.
01:15:17.279 --> 01:15:18.640
All right, so I was gonna, oh, yeah, that's right.
01:15:18.720 --> 01:15:22.640
You have you had to go pay, you had to uh you you have a volleyball game to go scoreboard for.
01:15:22.880 --> 01:15:23.359
Yep.
01:15:24.479 --> 01:15:25.920
Girl, love you, man.
01:15:28.479 --> 01:15:29.520
Sierra, what you got?
01:15:29.600 --> 01:15:34.479
Do you wanna you have anything else on the docket that you wanted to either like get off your chest?
01:15:34.560 --> 01:15:37.840
I know that you're gonna have some kind of hate Michigan thing.
01:15:37.920 --> 01:15:39.039
I'll I'll get the music queued up.
01:15:39.199 --> 01:15:40.079
You have anything in the in the background.
01:15:42.079 --> 01:15:43.279
I can't even say nothing, man.
01:15:43.760 --> 01:15:45.119
I mean, you can, you're allowed to.
01:15:45.279 --> 01:15:52.239
Yeah, but I'll then I'll really just be a hater, but I'm I'm you know I'm gonna let them live today this week.
01:15:52.479 --> 01:15:57.279
I'll I hope y'all have the day that you deserve, and the day that you deserve was the was the other day.
01:15:57.520 --> 01:16:01.279
Yeah, they're whatever.
01:16:01.439 --> 01:16:05.439
They had they Starliner was 30 years old, so like, come on.
01:16:08.079 --> 01:16:09.439
I do have one the runs.
01:16:09.680 --> 01:16:10.880
I do have two pocket.
01:16:13.359 --> 01:16:16.880
I guess I do have two questions for you to get your opinion on things before we head out.
01:16:16.960 --> 01:16:26.319
Is um one the Gino and Don situation, and then two the whole Danny Hurley.
01:16:26.399 --> 01:16:50.159
I know I know that this is a couple days old, and this is gonna be an older take, but I I do want to get your you're one of the funniest people that I know, and I love the way that you address things, so I want to get I want to get your perspective on it is the the Gino and Dawn uh Fuffle, if you will, and then also Danny Hurley basically headbutting a ref and whether you enjoyed it or whether you thought it was outlandish and foolish.
01:16:50.640 --> 01:16:54.239
Uh I start with uh the Danny Hurley Doston BS.
01:16:54.319 --> 01:16:59.359
I understand they're friends, but like that's a that's a tech at minimum.
01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:00.720
That's attack.
01:17:01.199 --> 01:17:13.840
And like you any other coach did that to him, they've thrown out the game, and the game was close enough to where that would have made a difference in the game.
01:17:14.000 --> 01:17:16.079
So like that was that was that was some bullshit.
01:17:16.239 --> 01:17:17.680
I ain't gonna lie to you.
01:17:17.920 --> 01:17:22.079
Like, I get it, but like, why does he have that cachet?
01:17:22.640 --> 01:17:28.239
I feel it the exact same way because I remember when I when I saw people doing it, they're like, Well, that's just how he is.
01:17:28.399 --> 01:17:39.840
It's like, well, every other situation that I've ever met is that that's a technical, and you as the adult are supposed to know that you can't do that in that environment.
01:17:39.920 --> 01:17:48.800
Because again, the thing also is that it wasn't like they were it wasn't like it was tied and he smashed that and they were up by three.
01:17:49.039 --> 01:17:51.039
He made it and it was a tie game.
01:17:51.199 --> 01:18:00.000
You make that kind of if it's any uh if it's any other ref, or if
that guy had any integrity for what he does, he would have teed you up.
01:18:00.079 --> 01:18:03.439
And if he loses, the entire narrative around Danny Hurley changes.
01:18:03.520 --> 01:18:07.279
It's not he's a passionate coach, it's not that he loves the game, it's not anything else.
01:18:07.359 --> 01:18:10.399
It is you can't control your emotions, we can't trust you.
01:18:10.479 --> 01:18:18.800
Like the the entire narrative and how we view him changes if and only if that man puts up the T signal.
01:18:19.359 --> 01:18:24.800
Yep, and it would have been oh, Danny Hurley cost his team a shot at the national championship.
01:18:24.960 --> 01:18:30.479
Yep, that's that's what it would have been right there, and that's what it should have been.
01:18:31.439 --> 01:18:32.000
Right.
01:18:32.239 --> 01:18:36.960
I know that some people in here of not just when they listen are gonna be like, well, coulda, shoulda, would it?
01:18:37.039 --> 01:18:43.039
No, man, who you knows matters, and it shouldn't because that's the game, that's the gambling portion of it as well.
01:18:43.199 --> 01:18:53.760
Like if you had if you didn't have UConn on the money line or whatever the case is, man, you mad that they didn't you mad they didn't call attack.
01:18:54.000 --> 01:18:56.880
Yeah, because I had Duke minus three points.
01:18:57.279 --> 01:19:00.319
Right you had Duke Duke minus three.
01:19:01.600 --> 01:19:04.239
No, I had Duke minus like seven and a half.
01:19:04.960 --> 01:19:07.920
So it was looking good in the first half when they were up 20.
01:19:08.399 --> 01:19:10.640
Oh yeah, we we bought the cash.
01:19:11.279 --> 01:19:15.520
I ain't even Oh, you know what why why didn't you sorry?
01:19:15.600 --> 01:19:17.760
I just got your I just got your text.
01:19:17.840 --> 01:19:19.680
Why didn't you put that in the chat, man?
01:19:20.159 --> 01:19:22.560
Oh I don't know, I didn't think about it.
01:19:23.920 --> 01:19:27.039
I'm trying to I'm always trying to help people out.
01:19:28.479 --> 01:19:30.000
I know this is bad.
01:19:30.079 --> 01:19:34.079
This is bad for people who uh who are just gonna listen to the uh the podcast later.
01:19:34.159 --> 01:19:36.479
But I'll say what it is.
01:19:36.800 --> 01:19:46.000
Um my daughter, who is 15, was accepted into a pre-collegiate pre-med program at Harvard.
01:19:46.479 --> 01:19:52.640
So we are having a fundraiser to raise money for it because it is mighty expensive.
01:19:54.479 --> 01:20:02.640
When you said that initially, I wasn't trying like I thought you were just joking, like like just haphazardly just saying it.
01:20:02.720 --> 01:20:04.479
I didn't that's that's crazy, dude.
01:20:04.560 --> 01:20:05.680
I'm crazy proud of her.
01:20:05.760 --> 01:20:09.359
Congratulations! Oh yeah, she's she's a burniac.
01:20:09.520 --> 01:20:13.600
She uh she's more goal-driven and focused in her dad.
01:20:13.920 --> 01:20:22.560
So she um yeah, she she just got approved for dual enrollment.
01:20:22.720 --> 01:20:31.520
So by the time she's done with high school, she'll be halfway done with her bachelor's program, and yeah, she wants to be a doctor.
01:20:33.199 --> 01:20:36.479
There's no better, no better way to make that money in this country nowadays.
01:20:36.800 --> 01:20:41.680
But you also got like she like that's that's that's incredible, man.
01:20:41.760 --> 01:20:43.760
Like, I wish that my kid had that kind of drive.
01:20:43.840 --> 01:20:46.159
Like my kid's smart, but he ain't Harvard smart.
01:20:46.319 --> 01:20:47.439
Like, I I love my kid.
01:20:47.520 --> 01:20:55.680
I'm not trying to dog him, but like it's just and uh she uh yeah, she she's a she's dope.
01:20:55.760 --> 01:20:56.399
She's dope.
01:20:56.479 --> 01:21:02.319
She uh, you know, I'm I'm gonna need her because the way I eat, you know, I might need a good document.
01:21:04.720 --> 01:21:07.199
See, that's that's the thing about having multiple kids.
01:21:07.279 --> 01:21:13.680
You got one that can be a doctor, one that might be an athlete, one that might be a lawyer, like personal trainer and chef, man.
01:21:13.840 --> 01:21:17.279
We get five of them, they all go into different fields, they can take care of you down the line, right?
01:21:17.439 --> 01:21:18.399
That's all I want.
01:21:18.560 --> 01:21:20.880
Like that's that's all I want.
01:21:21.119 --> 01:21:25.840
It's about diversifying your parental portfolio.
01:21:34.159 --> 01:21:35.760
That's uh yeah, no, that's it.
01:21:35.840 --> 01:21:36.560
That's all I got.
01:21:36.640 --> 01:21:38.079
I'm I'm proud of my girl.
01:21:38.319 --> 01:21:40.560
Good, and you and you, and you should be, man.
01:21:41.039 --> 01:21:44.479
So I know you didn't want to talk any any smack about Michigan.
01:21:44.720 --> 01:21:47.760
I'm gonna cue the music up just in case you want to, though.
01:21:49.199 --> 01:21:50.000
Come on, man.
01:21:50.079 --> 01:21:52.159
I know I know you got something deep in you.
01:21:52.319 --> 01:21:53.600
You got something.
01:21:55.920 --> 01:21:57.359
Michigan, you got it.
01:21:57.680 --> 01:21:58.399
You got it.
01:21:58.560 --> 01:22:00.880
Y'all uh y'all won the the Big Ten.
01:22:02.640 --> 01:22:03.520
You lost the Big Ten.
01:22:04.399 --> 01:22:06.159
Um, and then you won the natty.
01:22:06.720 --> 01:22:09.199
You won the natty in football a couple years ago.
01:22:09.279 --> 01:22:10.479
Y'all win it right now.
01:22:10.560 --> 01:22:11.920
I can't even hate on that.
01:22:12.560 --> 01:22:15.600
Y'all still live in Michigan and it still sucks.
01:22:15.840 --> 01:22:17.199
So how about that?
01:22:18.880 --> 01:22:20.159
Yeah, I'm hating.
01:22:20.319 --> 01:22:21.279
I'm hating.
01:22:21.520 --> 01:22:24.000
Illinois never won anything in my life.
01:22:24.319 --> 01:22:26.079
Uh here's Northwestern.
01:22:28.239 --> 01:22:29.119
It's okay.
01:22:29.600 --> 01:22:32.479
I hope the Pistons don't win shit this year.
01:22:32.800 --> 01:22:35.359
I know the Tigers not winning shit.
01:22:35.680 --> 01:22:39.359
And I and the Bears, we're gonna make sure the Lions don't win shit.
01:22:39.600 --> 01:22:43.119
So enjoy your your little collegiate championship.
01:22:44.159 --> 01:22:46.159
We'll be on your ass come November.
01:22:46.319 --> 01:22:47.760
Don't even worry about it.
01:22:48.640 --> 01:22:49.359
Bitches.
01:22:52.560 --> 01:22:59.600
I know, I know you said talking about Northwestern, but you'll always have Darnell Altre.
01:23:01.520 --> 01:23:03.279
Another another white skin.
01:23:04.880 --> 01:23:09.039
I knew that you were I knew that you were gonna do that.
01:23:10.880 --> 01:23:16.800
So sometimes the alley oops like you gotta pre-plan him, but you always yam on it like you're Blake.
01:23:16.880 --> 01:23:19.199
You know, you never you never miss on it.
01:23:19.439 --> 01:23:20.560
I'll try.
01:23:21.359 --> 01:23:23.039
You're a good man for that.
01:23:23.600 --> 01:23:26.800
You have anything else you want to add before we hang it up for the day?
01:23:28.239 --> 01:23:31.279
No, just like you know, I love you and LaShawn.
01:23:31.439 --> 01:23:33.039
Y'all my brothers, you know.
01:23:33.279 --> 01:23:34.319

I just want everybody to stay up and be blessed.
01:23:38.479 --> 01:23:40.159
You don't get to do that.
01:23:40.319 --> 01:23:47.760
You made fun of me for putting it in the group chat in an audio, and now you're hijacking it and weaponizing it against me.
01:23:47.920 --> 01:23:50.159
You don't get to do that, good sir.
01:23:50.560 --> 01:23:53.760
Hey man, it's a dog eat dog world.
01:23:54.960 --> 01:23:58.479
We just taking taglines for ourselves and whatever, man.
01:23:58.560 --> 01:24:02.479
Like you you wouldn't be the first, and you're not gonna be the last, but it's okay.
01:24:03.199 --> 01:24:06.960
