1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,480
No one invited them, but they still linger.

2
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,160
Harambe used to listen to our original show, Two Dip Shits and Cheek Radio Shack

3
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:19,440
Realistic Tape Recorder.

4
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:24,440
Harambe does not listen to our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheek Radio Shack

5
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,480
Realistic Tape Recorder anymore.

6
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:31,480
You might ask why Harambe never listens to our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheek Radio Shack

7
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,000
Realistic Tape Recorder.

8
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:35,800
Well, it's because Harambe is dead.

9
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,800
Senselessly murdered because some idiot did not watch her child properly while looking on her phone.

10
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,480
Sadly, Harambe does not listen to our original show, Two Dip Shits and the Cheek Radio Shack

11
00:00:45,480 --> 00:00:49,320
Realistic Tape Recorder or any other show anymore.

12
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,840
Sorry, Harambe.

13
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:55,840
These are excellent for recording.

14
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:56,840
Yeah.

15
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:57,840
All right.

16
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,840
The pigeons are still loving it around here.

17
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:01,840
Oh, I know.

18
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:09,840
Sometimes I feel like bringing something to feed the birds, but I realized that the people who have shops around here really don't want the pigeons around.

19
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:15,840
So listen, I love the shops around here, but the evil part of me wants to feed them just to watch people freak out.

20
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,840
Yeah.

21
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:22,840
As a matter of fact, during the summer, when this is open up and all busy, I'll be doing that.

22
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,840
You just got to be really careful.

23
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,840
You know, just kind of like kind of toss it on the ground, kind of close to them.

24
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:32,840
Then usually the kids, the first one that starts crying, then the parents get alarmed.

25
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,840
And then you get that little dumbass and nobody's watching.

26
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,840
It's trying to stomp the pigeons.

27
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:37,840
Oh, yeah.

28
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,840
And then the parents like, it's like, OK, really, you know, Jeffrey Dahmer in the making.

29
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,840
Yeah, it's like you're going to laugh when the kid tries to stomp a pigeon to death.

30
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:47,840
OK.

31
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,840
Well, that kid doesn't have a chance, does it?

32
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:50,840
No.

33
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,840
So, all right.

34
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:59,840
So we're starting off with the sports bastards.

35
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:04,840
TK Metcalfe is a hot rumor.

36
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,840
Kansas City is talking with Seattle.

37
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Yeah.

38
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,840
About giving up a pick.

39
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:13,840
Yeah.

40
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,840
They're saying the number one pick, but I'm pretty sure that'll be part of the salary.

41
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,840
There's not too many players that will command a number one overall pick.

42
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,840
I mean, not overall, but number one ground pick.

43
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,840
Well, I don't think TK is alone.

44
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,840
I think that they're going to have to eat some of the money or something.

45
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:30,840
Yeah.

46
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,840
Because they're not going to resign him.

47
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,840
And we may not resign.

48
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,840
We probably won't resign him either.

49
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,840
No, it's going to win your deal.

50
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:38,840
Yeah.

51
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:44,840
So, I find a little bit more about that, but multiple places are reporting this, which

52
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,840
kind of leaves me to believe it came from somewhere.

53
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:48,840
Yeah.

54
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:49,840
Yeah.

55
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,840
Also heard about Stafford being rumored to go to 49ers.

56
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,840
That would be a good fit.

57
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:58,840
It's kind of interesting.

58
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:04,840
The Rams told both Stafford and Cooper Cup that they weren't going to be able to resign

59
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:10,840
them, but they didn't want either of the players to tell the public about it.

60
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,840
And Cooper Cup leaked it himself.

61
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,840
He said, I'd like to stay here, but it's not up to me.

62
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:23,840
And then Stafford's wife on a podcast or social media somehow started talking about it.

63
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,840
And the team got pissed.

64
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,840
It was like, screw the team.

65
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,840
Why should he keep their secrets for them?

66
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:30,840
No, I know.

67
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,840
I don't blame her.

68
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:39,840
If the boss fires you and says, don't tell anyone, through that, I'm going to go tell

69
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:40,840
everyone.

70
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,840
Unless there's severance as contingents on it.

71
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,840
Other than that, no.

72
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:50,840
I'm going to tell everybody in the world and tell them how much of a dick you are.

73
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:56,840
But this is starting to lead me to believe that the Rams are in cap trouble.

74
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,840
Either they are in cap trouble or they anticipate being in cap trouble because they got their

75
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,840
eye on somebody.

76
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,840
Well, OK.

77
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,840
For one, they haven't been that upper echelon team ever since they won the Super Bowl.

78
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:10,840
Yeah.

79
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,840
So you're not the preferred commodity.

80
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:15,840
True.

81
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,840
Now the preferred commodity is going to be the Eagles and the Chiefs still.

82
00:04:19,840 --> 00:04:20,840
OK.

83
00:04:20,840 --> 00:04:26,840
So anybody chasing a ring will give you a hometown discount because they figure you're

84
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:28,840
probably going to be in it again.

85
00:04:28,840 --> 00:04:29,840
Yeah.

86
00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:30,840
Yeah.

87
00:04:30,840 --> 00:04:35,840
The other thing is, teams like the Rams that are a little bit on the outer edges, they

88
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:36,840
might win a playoff game.

89
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:37,840
Playoffs, if you're lucky.

90
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:38,840
Yeah.

91
00:04:38,840 --> 00:04:44,840
They kind of get left out of the whole bargaining deal.

92
00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:45,840
Yeah.

93
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:46,840
So they tend to do have it.

94
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:48,840
They have cap troubles, like the Chiefs used to.

95
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,840
Now I remember the Chiefs having lots of cap trouble.

96
00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:52,840
Yeah.

97
00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:54,840
And it was so frustrating because we didn't have decent players.

98
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:57,840
It's like, why are we so far over the cap?

99
00:04:57,840 --> 00:04:58,840
Yeah.

100
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:00,840
They had to overpay for everybody, so that's why.

101
00:05:00,840 --> 00:05:01,840
Yeah.

102
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:02,840
No one's giving me a discount.

103
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:05,840
They're going to go, yeah, 20 million except for the Chiefs.

104
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:07,840
Make that 30.

105
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:08,840
Yeah.

106
00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:20,840
Well, I like it on the surface, but that's not the Chief's style, is it?

107
00:05:20,840 --> 00:05:26,840
My impression of Metcalf is that he's kind of a West Coast offense kind of guy.

108
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:31,840
And I'd like to see the Chiefs do more of that, but the Chiefs are more of a downfield.

109
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:32,840
Yeah.

110
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:38,840
You know, with the offensive line troubles, maybe that is what they want to do.

111
00:05:38,840 --> 00:05:43,840
Because currently, if the Chiefs throw short, it's generally to a tight end or a running

112
00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:44,840
back.

113
00:05:44,840 --> 00:05:45,840
They don't do that usually.

114
00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:47,840
That's a really wide receiver, but not usually.

115
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:51,840
Well, whenever the scheme's working, it will probably be a wide receiver.

116
00:05:51,840 --> 00:05:56,840
The word these seems to be the favorite.

117
00:05:56,840 --> 00:05:59,840
This is, I don't quite believe this.

118
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:00,840
Yeah.

119
00:06:00,840 --> 00:06:03,840
Number one, I don't see him giving up a high draft pick for anybody.

120
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:10,840
No, especially Metcalf's not old, but he's definitely got some miles on him at this point.

121
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:11,840
Well, it's going to be a one-year deal.

122
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:16,840
You know, unless you have an offer in place and he says, as soon as this happens, I'm

123
00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:17,840
signing it.

124
00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:19,840
I want to be with you guys for seven years.

125
00:06:19,840 --> 00:06:20,840
Yeah.

126
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:24,840
I mean, I gave a multi-year to Hollywood Brown, but that was unusual.

127
00:06:24,840 --> 00:06:26,840
Everyone else, they signed Schuster.

128
00:06:26,840 --> 00:06:27,840
Oh, no, the Chiefs.

129
00:06:27,840 --> 00:06:28,840
Hopkins.

130
00:06:28,840 --> 00:06:29,840
They're all one-year deal.

131
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:30,840
No, Hollywood Brown was a one-year deal.

132
00:06:30,840 --> 00:06:31,840
That was a one-year deal?

133
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:32,840
Yes.

134
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:33,840
I thought it was a multi-year.

135
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:34,840
No, look it up.

136
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:35,840
I thought it was too.

137
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:36,840
I don't know if it was bad information.

138
00:06:36,840 --> 00:06:37,840
So all of them are one-year deals.

139
00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:38,840
Yes.

140
00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:40,840
And that's smart from a business standpoint.

141
00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:43,840
If you like them and they liked playing for you, you can probably sign them next year.

142
00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:46,840
The Bills are trying to get Hollywood Brown right now.

143
00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:48,840
Oh, wow.

144
00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:53,840
Yeah, no, it must have been bad information because I thought they had them for four years.

145
00:06:53,840 --> 00:06:58,840
And hang on, let me make sure that the information I got isn't bad information.

146
00:06:58,840 --> 00:06:59,840
I just thought about that.

147
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:02,840
I could be getting the bad information on this second one because I remember I thought

148
00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:05,840
it was a four-year deal, wasn't it?

149
00:07:05,840 --> 00:07:06,840
That was my impression.

150
00:07:06,840 --> 00:07:07,840
It was a multi-year deal.

151
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:08,840
Okay, let's take a look here.

152
00:07:08,840 --> 00:07:09,840
Okay.

153
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,840
Well, I could very well be wrong and I'll find out here because I remember it being

154
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:13,840
the other.

155
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:14,840
I'm thinking with Metcalfe.

156
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,840
Is Hollywood Brown currently under contract?

157
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:22,840
If Kelsey is going to retire, then Metcalfe could take some of those underneath routes

158
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,840
that Kelsey was running.

159
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:25,840
Yeah, he could.

160
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,840
I don't know how many of you have seen the...

161
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,840
Is Hollywood Brown currently under contract?

162
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:31,840
All the...

163
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,840
If you all have seen the fake retirement video from Kelsey?

164
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:35,840
One-year contract.

165
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:36,840
It was a one-year?

166
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:37,840
Yep.

167
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:38,840
Okay.

168
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:39,840
All right.

169
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:40,840
Well, anyhow, go ahead.

170
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:41,840
I'm sorry.

171
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,840
I was enjoying the fake video the other day of Kelsey retiring.

172
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,840
So many people...

173
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,840
Yeah, it's catching a lot of people.

174
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,840
But if you listen to what he's saying, you can tell that's nothing that Kelsey would

175
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:54,840
say.

176
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,840
I look at the eyes because AI has not kind of figured out eyes yet.

177
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:58,840
True.

178
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,840
The pupils are like really huge, unhumanly huge.

179
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:02,840
Yeah.

180
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,840
And AI doesn't realize that in a real press conference, there would be sound in the background.

181
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:08,840
Yeah, that's true.

182
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,840
People talking and rustling, cameras flashing, et cetera.

183
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,840
AI doesn't know about all that.

184
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:14,840
Oh, yeah.

185
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:15,840
It's a lot of fun to watch.

186
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:16,840
Well, I personally think it's funny.

187
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:17,840
It was fun to watch.

188
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:22,840
He was going to go help Taylor with her music career as if she needs help.

189
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,840
And like you said, you said a friend of yours bid on that.

190
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:27,840
Yeah.

191
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,840
He was like, hey, oh yeah, well, good luck, buddy.

192
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,840
I love watching you.

193
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,840
Hell, I've fallen for some fake videos.

194
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,840
Yeah, I'm not making fun of...

195
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:37,840
Oh, no.

196
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,840
Yeah, I'm right there with everybody else.

197
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:50,840
We were watching reaction videos to the Snow White trailers and enjoying all the sarcastic

198
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,840
and snarky insults.

199
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:59,440
And then YouTube came up with a fake video just for me claiming that Disney had canceled

200
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,840
the release of Snow White and they were just going to mull over the movie.

201
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:02,840
No, I fell for that too.

202
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,840
Remember, we were over there and we both were like laughing, going, aha, they canceled it.

203
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:07,840
Yeah.

204
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,840
And then they were just completely made up on the fly.

205
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,840
They're going to sit there, yeah, they're going to sit there with that bucket of shit

206
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:13,840
and ride it out, aren't they?

207
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:14,840
Yeah, I guess so.

208
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:20,840
Well, probably to satisfy their insurance, they have to actually release it before they

209
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,840
make a claim on their insurance to cover up.

210
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,840
Because studios insure movies against being a bomb, but they have to actually release it.

211
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:29,840
No, I know.

212
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,840
And so they're going to do it and try to get whatever they can out of it.

213
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,840
Okay, I talked briefly about this on the way up here, but Kansas City does not look real

214
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,840
interested in resigning Kareem Hunt.

215
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:43,840
That surprises me.

216
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,840
Me too, I'm kind of perplexed.

217
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,840
The guy that should have been in question to me is Pacheco.

218
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,840
Pacheco has never made a thousand yard season, let alone the Russian title like Hunt did

219
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,840
his rookie season in 2017.

220
00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:00,840
Yeah, I know I'm not a GM, but I would try to resign Hunt and draft a running back and

221
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,840
let it all battle it out.

222
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,840
I believe P Ryan is still under contract, isn't he?

223
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:06,840
I would hope so.

224
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:07,840
Yeah, I hope so too.

225
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,840
So you have your third and fourth down guy.

226
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,840
You've got your special teams per guy, you know what I mean?

227
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:17,840
We need that guy that can get free in the flat real quick, you know, real quick turn

228
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,840
around router on the, usually him on the edges.

229
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,840
Nick Bolton is going to command a huge price.

230
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:30,840
With Rice coming back and we're definitely on the road to being a great, his office is

231
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:36,840
going to return to form and then the defense going to take a, this is a two part question.

232
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:41,840
Number one, the Pacheco and number two, his offense coming back and the defense taking

233
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,840
his seat back like before.

234
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,840
We won Super Bowls both ways.

235
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,840
Yeah, that's true.

236
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:53,840
On Pacheco first, I think Kareem Hunt and Isaiah Pacheco are similar enough in their

237
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:58,840
running styles that you don't have any kind of change up there.

238
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,840
And teams generally like to have a change of pace back, like this guy's a power runner,

239
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,840
this guy is slippery and can catch passes, et cetera.

240
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,840
Between the two of them, Hunt's doing it better.

241
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:18,840
Pacheco's got all the heart and desire and attitude, but it's got to translate to yard's

242
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:19,840
touchdowns.

243
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,840
And for him, it's not really working out.

244
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:27,840
No, and like we said, his running style, his body style does not actually, it's not very

245
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,840
good.

246
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,840
No, he seems to use himself up two thirds of the way through the season.

247
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,840
He's so beat up and banged up, he's a shell.

248
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:36,840
If he doesn't get injured, yeah.

249
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:43,840
Yeah, so I think, I don't know, you know, it's hard to question Brett Veach, three Super

250
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:49,840
Bowls underneath him, drafting Patrick Mahomes, he was there.

251
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:50,840
Chris Jones, no?

252
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,840
Yeah, yeah, Chris Jones too.

253
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,840
Okay, so it's hard to question him, but this one here, I can't get around.

254
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:57,840
Yeah.

255
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,840
To me, I think that it's questionable unless they know something we don't.

256
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:03,840
Yeah, yeah.

257
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,840
Which is very possible.

258
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:10,840
There's always that, because we only get the information that they want us to hear.

259
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,840
But why would they hire him back?

260
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,840
They have their choice of running backs.

261
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:14,840
Yeah.

262
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:21,840
Yeah, I would prefer to see Pacheco have to fight for his job next season, next training

263
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:22,840
camp.

264
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:23,840
And maybe that's what they're going to do.

265
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,840
Maybe they're going to have Pacheco fight with a new guy, and maybe they're going to

266
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,840
see if Hunt gets a decent contract, and then they're going to come back and go, all right,

267
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,840
we'll give you 50 bucks more.

268
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:33,840
Yeah.

269
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:34,840
I don't know.

270
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:40,840
Yeah, man, my choice would be to make sure Hunt was re-signed.

271
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:41,840
Me too.

272
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,840
And then have Pacheco earn a spot on the roster again in training camp.

273
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,840
I would sign Hunt to your deal if that was possible.

274
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:50,840
That sounds about right.

275
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:55,840
Yeah, and that way, look, we want you, but not just for one season.

276
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,840
We want you around for a couple of seasons, and then we'll reevaluate, you know, because

277
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,840
you're going to be getting older, and we'll see.

278
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,840
And I mean, you don't give a running back a huge contract.

279
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,840
It's been proven over time.

280
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:08,840
Yeah.

281
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:09,840
Yeah.

282
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,840
Every time that's happened, it's turned into a disaster.

283
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:17,840
And it didn't used to be this way, but you really can find decent running backs that

284
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:23,840
can be the guy for your team for, you know, third round, fourth round pick.

285
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:24,840
Easily.

286
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:25,840
Yeah.

287
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,840
And also, you can pick one up in the fourth round easily, too.

288
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,840
I think Kareem Hunt was in fourth round, wasn't he?

289
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:35,840
Yeah, the Chiefs haven't really drafted running back high since they got burned on, like,

290
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,840
Hill, McLeod.

291
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,840
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Greg Hill.

292
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:41,840
Greg Hill.

293
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,840
Harvey Williams.

294
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:44,840
Harvey Williams, yeah.

295
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:50,840
But we're talking about the Schottenheim-Petersen era, which is completely different and not,

296
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,840
quite frankly, nothing like we have now.

297
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,840
And pretty much all teams are doing that.

298
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,840
They're putting the running game off to the, at the most, the second round.

299
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,840
Well, you guys having the man means that the running game's that much better anyhow.

300
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,840
You have a guy that can do it at any point.

301
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,840
They're like, sure, anything but throwing.

302
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,840
Anything but throwing.

303
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:11,840
Yeah.

304
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,840
So I thought that was Brandon for a second.

305
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:16,840
Oh, yeah.

306
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:17,840
Yeah, right there.

307
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:18,840
Did that kind of look like him?

308
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:19,840
It didn't, though.

309
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,840
Just a little bit.

310
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:22,840
Okay.

311
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,840
Anyhow, you had some questions, and I got other stuff.

312
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:32,840
Yeah, something I was thinking about this morning, watching a little bit of the NFL Network's

313
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,840
morning football show.

314
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,840
And they were talking about everything but football.

315
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,840
The guy was describing his morning routine, and somebody else was talking.

316
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:42,840
Was this good morning football?

317
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:43,840
Yeah.

318
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:44,840
Yeah, of course.

319
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:45,840
Of course.

320
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:46,840
Yeah, that's what they do.

321
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,840
So I had plenty of time to tune them out and think about actual football things.

322
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:57,840
And one of the things I was thinking about was the style of NFL football that we have

323
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,840
now, that's, you know, the NFL teams are playing.

324
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:08,840
I don't think that would survive without massive public exposure.

325
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:13,840
You know, like, I know guys who would play golf for the rest of their lives, whether

326
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,840
it was on TV or not, whether they were tournaments or not, they don't care.

327
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,840
They just love golf, and they play it.

328
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:25,840
Same with, you know, bicycle riding or running or all sorts of other sports.

329
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:32,840
If football didn't have the big, massive TV audience, I don't think anybody would play

330
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:38,840
tackle football the way the NFL does, simply for a sport.

331
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,840
I would have, I think you're onto something there.

332
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:47,840
Yeah, I mean, it started out as a sport for entertainment and for fun and for, you know,

333
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,840
friendly competition.

334
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:54,840
And then it morphed into, well, let's make money off of this.

335
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:59,840
And then the NFL formed in what, 1939 or something like that, 37.

336
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,840
And from that point, it was all about make money.

337
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:09,840
And first it was, attendance was really the only way you made money.

338
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,840
And maybe you got a little bit from the radio coverage if you could get that.

339
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:20,840
And then they figured out they could make tons of money on concessions and merchandise, too.

340
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:26,840
And then came the television contracts, and that changed the game enormously.

341
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,840
And then the streaming contracts and blah, blah.

342
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:37,840
But every step of the way, the game has been changed for entertainment purposes.

343
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:45,840
Initially, the rules were to ensure fair competition, which means curtail on the cheating, et cetera.

344
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:51,840
But now the game keeps getting altered and the rules changed just to make it more entertaining

345
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,840
because it's what people want to see.

346
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,840
And we've all been really open about it.

347
00:16:55,840 --> 00:17:00,840
The NFL says, yeah, we're cutting back on the defense's abilities to open up the passing game

348
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,840
for more scoring because that's what the fans want.

349
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,840
So they're very open about, we're changing the game to make it more entertaining for you.

350
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,840
And that's really all it is.

351
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:15,840
Nobody would play NFL-style tackle football if they weren't getting paid

352
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,840
or have the potential to eventually get paid for it.

353
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:19,840
I agree.

354
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,840
Nobody would do it just for fun on a Saturday afternoon.

355
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,840
I actually think that's a great, that's a good way of describing football anymore, actually.

356
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,840
I mean, that's pretty much what it is.

357
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:33,840
It feeds around being entertaining.

358
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:38,840
People going, aw, look at that. Oh, my, did you see that play?

359
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,840
The next morning, you know, it's like, man, did you see that interception?

360
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,840
You know, man, he dove and just barely got it with his fingertips.

361
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:46,840
It's the talk in the break room.

362
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,840
But even something like, you know, like movies are that way, too.

363
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,840
You're supposed to sit there and watch it for entertainment.

364
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:58,840
But even the movie actors will still go do local community theater

365
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,840
because they just like acting and they like performing.

366
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,840
Uh-huh.

367
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:09,840
NFL, no, if the money isn't flowing, they don't play.

368
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:14,840
Nobody wants to play that unless they're getting paid.

369
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:15,840
It's really weird.

370
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,840
It's gone from a sport that people wanted to play and enjoyed

371
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,840
to strictly an entertainment under these strict guidelines.

372
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,840
And it's been maneuvered into such a position

373
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,840
that nobody would ever want to play that unless they were making bank.

374
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:31,840
Yeah, yeah.

375
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:36,840
So that's what football has become, not what it started out as.

376
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,840
I think that actually this is what they wanted anyhow.

377
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:45,840
They probably went to the pencil pushers and said,

378
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,840
hey, what do you think about taking this angle right here?

379
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,840
And they're like, you know, there's all different types of aspects

380
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,840
like the betting aspect, the gambling aspect.

381
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,840
That's the number one right there.

382
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:03,840
An entertainment league would lend more to people, more people watching,

383
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,840
which means more interest in gambling.

384
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,840
More people are interested in entertainment

385
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,840
that are interested in the sport of football.

386
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:11,840
Yes, yeah.

387
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,840
And that's why they liked Taylor Swift until it started turning on them.

388
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:15,840
Yeah.

389
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,840
I think after all the boos at the Super Bowl,

390
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,840
I don't think you're going to be seeing a whole lot of her.

391
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,840
I think she's realized that her little moment there is over

392
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,840
and we're all kind of, not we're all,

393
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,840
but enough people are tired of the overexposure.

394
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,840
We're sick of it here.

395
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:30,840
Yeah.

396
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,840
But it's interesting that usually she's a lot smarter than that

397
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,840
and she gets out before it turns sour.

398
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,840
This time she was there until it got sour.

399
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,840
I think she's there supporting her guy.

400
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:41,840
Yeah.

401
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,840
And I think that really, I mean, I think the press on it was an afterthought

402
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,840
because let's face it, she gets enough press as it is.

403
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:49,840
Yeah.

404
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,840
I think that she's just there supporting all of a sudden.

405
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,840
It's like, oh shit, I forgot about this.

406
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,840
I was going to be looking at me.

407
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:57,840
Yeah.

408
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:58,840
So.

409
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:03,840
The, oh gosh, what was I going to go to next?

410
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,840
And one of us is ready to take a moment to thank you.

411
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:08,840
Dang it.

412
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,840
Hang on a second.

413
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:17,840
It's also worth noting that this is a really, really common business model

414
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,840
to start with something this way and then change it into a money-making machine.

415
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:22,840
It happens all the time.

416
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:28,840
And like a really quick example off the top of my head, Band Motley Crue.

417
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,840
It started out as a band wanting to make music and tour and get some money,

418
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,840
and now it's just make the money and that's it.

419
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:36,840
It's all we care about.

420
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:37,840
Yeah.

421
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:43,840
I think you can think of a popular podcast that started out interesting and cool

422
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,840
and talked about it's really interesting,

423
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:50,840
and now it's just kind of a mono theme

424
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,840
and it's what the sponsors want and it's what the painless listeners want.

425
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,840
Well, without saying names, there's a big guy that we can all point towards there,

426
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,840
and I don't want to motherfuck him because he's much bigger than us.

427
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:02,840
But yeah.

428
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,840
But yeah, this podcast started as something else,

429
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,840
and in a lot of ways that is actually a calculated move.

430
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:15,840
It's like let's start as this little friendly mom-and-pop pizza parlor,

431
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,840
and we'll give awesome pizza for the first year,

432
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,840
and then we'll start raising prices,

433
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,840
and then we'll start skimping out on the ingredients.

434
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:24,840
And that's what's going on.

435
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:25,840
Yeah.

436
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:29,840
Back in the 70s, there was a family restaurant called Ponderosa,

437
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,840
and my wife worked there when she was a teenager,

438
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,840
and during the course of her working there,

439
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:41,840
they switched from real hard-boiled eggs to a fake egg product

440
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,840
that came in like a three-foot tube,

441
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,840
and you just slice off little slices.

442
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:52,840
They went from real sour cream to baked potato topping is all they would call it,

443
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:53,840
fake sour cream.

444
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,840
It's just every step of the way they were cheaping out,

445
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,840
cheaping out crappier, paying employees less,

446
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,840
and pretty much every business, well, not every,

447
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,840
a lot of businesses go through that phase of let's get good,

448
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,840
let's get popular, let's build a reputation,

449
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:14,840
and then let's cash out and ride that reputation for as long as we can

450
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:15,840
and make our millions.

451
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,840
Applebee's is another good example of that, too.

452
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,840
The NFL is definitely in that position where it's now,

453
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:26,840
let's ride this money train as far as we can and as hard as we can,

454
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,840
and they really don't care what's left of the NFL when it's done.

455
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:31,840
Yeah, yeah.

456
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:36,840
Enjoy the ride, but at the end, the NFL will be utterly destroyed.

457
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:37,840
I agree.

458
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:46,840
I know there's a lot of rumbly, a little discontent over what's going on right now.

459
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,840
You know, it's a two-way street.

460
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:52,840
I used to be the ones like they have to get the calls right,

461
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,840
and now I'm like, fuck it.

462
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,840
Go with what was called on the field.

463
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:57,840
We need the game to keep going.

464
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,840
I get tired of too many commercials, too many interruptions.

465
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:07,840
And yeah, it's starting to get that kind of whiff of the reason that we're getting

466
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:12,840
so many controversial calls that have to go to replay is,

467
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,840
one, another commercial break, two, gambling opportunity.

468
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,840
Which way is this call going to go?

469
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,840
While we're sitting here in this commercial, let's whip out our phone and make a bet.

470
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,840
Well, what do you think about them going to an app now?

471
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,840
You cannot watch them on regular TV.

472
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,840
How about all the people 16 over, a lot of them?

473
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,840
I'm not quite there yet, but you're over 60.

474
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,840
But you are app savvy.

475
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,840
A lot of older people, and maybe 70s, maybe a little bit.

476
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,840
No, there's a lot of my contemporaries that just don't even care to learn

477
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,840
how to operate a smartphone or a computer or anything.

478
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:52,840
But yeah, the article that we both read, my initial impression was that

479
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:57,840
football was going to start being offered starting next season.

480
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,840
No games will be exclusively TV and no games will be exclusively streaming.

481
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,840
That's what I thought I read too.

482
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:04,840
Yeah.

483
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:10,840
So, and for the streaming games, they don't want you to have to rely on a specific

484
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:16,840
streaming service like Netflix or YouTube or whatever.

485
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:21,840
So they want to make it more universally on demand.

486
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:26,840
Like if I want to go watch an Austin Powers movie,

487
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:31,840
there's like about six different ways I can stream that movie through my dish

488
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,840
network, through my phone, my computer, and a lot of them don't rely on a

489
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,840
specific streaming service.

490
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,840
I'll put it like this, if I'm at work during a cheese game and I'm able to,

491
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,840
I will take out my phone and I have direct TV streaming,

492
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,840
and I will put the game on.

493
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,840
Yeah, and I think that's what the NFL is trying to go for.

494
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,840
Wherever you're at.

495
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,840
You're on vacation, you still watch the game.

496
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,840
Now the networks love their exclusivity.

497
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,840
It's like we're carrying this game in your area,

498
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,840
so you don't even get to watch any other game on TV,

499
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,840
because we're only going to give you this one.

500
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:12,840
So the NFL is really trying to end the network TV era and take it on themselves.

501
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,840
Instead of going through the network, it's like, you know,

502
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,840
say the network pays the NFL like three billion for the NFL rights.

503
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,840
They're still going to make money on top of that.

504
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,840
So the NFL is thinking, why are we settling for three billion?

505
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,840
Let's just do the games ourselves,

506
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,840
and we'll make all the money that they would have made.

507
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,840
So let's think what's going to change now.

508
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,840
Amazon's not going to change, and Netflix aren't going to change.

509
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:34,840
They're both apps.

510
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:40,840
Yep, but they're both, they're going to have to either add an absolutely free section

511
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,840
where you can come and watch the football games and hope that that...

512
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:43,840
Or you're going to have to pay.

513
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,840
Yeah, well they said they're going to try,

514
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,840
they're going to make it where you don't have to pay the streaming service.

515
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:48,840
Okay, then that's good.

516
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:52,840
So Amazon and Netflix will have to offer like a free account

517
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,840
where you just get the football games or something,

518
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,840
and that's their hope to try to get you to join up.

519
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,840
Or it's going to be like, you know, just through your TV provider.

520
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,840
I would like that because of this right here.

521
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,840
I could catch an out of market game.

522
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,840
If I'm on vacation, I can watch the Chiefs.

523
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,840
And that's what I've always wanted to do,

524
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,840
because when I used to go out of town for work,

525
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,840
it used to piss me off to no end.

526
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,840
You know, I'd have like direct TV streaming.

527
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,840
I think I had it then too.

528
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,840
If it wasn't, it was something else like that.

529
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,840
Yeah, you're out of the area, the blackout area.

530
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,840
It was Hulu. Yeah.

531
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,840
But since you live in the blackout area,

532
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,840
even though you traveled out of it, they still won't let you have a game.

533
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,840
Yeah, they won't let me have a game because they're going to show me,

534
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,840
like when I was in Nashville, I tried to watch the Chiefs game.

535
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,840
Uh-uh. They showed me the Titans game instead.

536
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,840
Yeah, I've noticed that I have the Dish streaming app too.

537
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:52,840
And it basically is anything that you can DVR.

538
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:53,840
Yeah.

539
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,840
Because it's taking it off of temporary DVR files.

540
00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,840
Because there are some streaming channels now on Dish that you can't record.

541
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:01,840
Yeah.

542
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,840
Because they're streaming.

543
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:04,840
And that's it.

544
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,840
And then you can't watch them remotely because the remote viewing relies on your DVR.

545
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:14,840
And your DVR always knows exactly what zip code it's in and whatever restrictions.

546
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:15,840
Yeah.

547
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:22,840
But it's also worth noting that nowhere in this article did it say the games that were streaming are going to be free.

548
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,840
Now they say you don't have to have a paid app or join an app,

549
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,840
but they still might be pay-per-view.

550
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:30,840
Oh, I got what you're saying.

551
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:31,840
It never said anything about that.

552
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,840
It's like, oh, you want to watch the Chiefs game in St. Louis?

553
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:35,840
No problem.

554
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,840
$8.95.

555
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,840
Okay, well that agrees.

556
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:44,840
And you just log on to the NFL.com website and stream the game right from them.

557
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,840
But yeah, they never said it was going to be free.

558
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,840
They're just going to say they're going to make every game available to everybody everywhere.

559
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:58,840
They're going to find out because Gen Zers, this is going to be on the regular podcast,

560
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:04,840
but they will not even apply for a job unless it has, oh, I think I already covered it last week,

561
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,840
but anyhow, unless they know the salary, they won't even apply.

562
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,840
They are not that money-oriented.

563
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:17,840
So I'm going to say that if it comes to football, Gen Z is going to be out.

564
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,840
They're going to be like, I don't care that much about it.

565
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,840
So you've got to start thinking about probably instead of how much you can get,

566
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,840
how easy it is to get the game.

567
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:26,840
Right, yeah.

568
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:31,840
That would be the smarter approach is instead of trying to make every dollar you can,

569
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:36,840
just get every viewer you can, and the money will come from having that many viewers.

570
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:41,840
Yeah, and millennials are soccer-centric because that's when all the schools started promoting soccer.

571
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,840
They'll say, no, this is the next game.

572
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,840
This is the one up and coming. This is the one you want to learn.

573
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:51,840
Ironically enough, more high schoolers get serious injuries from playing soccer

574
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,840
than they do from getting playing football.

575
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,840
Yeah, but people don't think like that.

576
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:56,840
Yeah.

577
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,840
Sorry, I keep watching. Stupid shit keeps going on over there.

578
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:04,840
That guy went in and out of that parking space four times. Now he's leaving.

579
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,840
He's like the pilot practicing his touch and go on the airstrip.

580
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,840
He's practicing his park and go.

581
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,840
And then before that, someone was cleaning out their car and then go to the trunk

582
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,840
and all this stuff, and I was watching that.

583
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,840
I'm letting you know. I know what you're saying.

584
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,840
I'm just going, man, that's like a little area where a bunch of shit just happens.

585
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:21,840
Yeah.

586
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:23,840
So anyhow.

587
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,840
Something that we talked about before, the NFL wanting that 18th game.

588
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,840
Yeah.

589
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,840
And we talked about how you're going to have the players last, you know, making through that.

590
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,840
They're already dropping their flies.

591
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,840
I'm not admitting it, but I think anyone with a brain can look at it and go,

592
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,840
hey, there's a lot more injuries, especially wide receivers.

593
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:48,840
Yeah. Well, I had an idea that would help the quarterbacks survive.

594
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:49,840
OK.

595
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,840
And that is to eliminate the intentional grounding rule.

596
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,840
Give the quarterbacks the ability to throw the ball away anytime,

597
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,840
anywhere, for any reason, just spike it right down to the ground.

598
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:02,840
It'll speed up the game, too.

599
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:03,840
Exactly.

600
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:04,840
Yeah.

601
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,840
And that way the quarterbacks won't get hit so often.

602
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,840
They won't throw as many interceptions.

603
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,840
You'll still get sacks because they're going to be blindside sacks

604
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:17,840
or the quarterback is scrambling and doesn't have time to throw, then you still get hit.

605
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,840
So you'll still get plenty of sacks.

606
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:25,840
But those repeated hits, you'll eliminate a lot of those

607
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,840
because if the quarterback knows that anytime I can just throw this ball into the ground

608
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:34,840
and we start over, that's going to extend a lot of careers, I think.

609
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:35,840
Yeah.

610
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:40,840
And then you make a roster exemption for wide receivers instead of, you know,

611
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,840
you can tell the team you can carry six extra wide receivers

612
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,840
and they don't count against your roster limit.

613
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,840
So that way everybody can stock up on wide receivers.

614
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:55,840
Everybody playing decent college football at wide receiver will have a good shot in the NFL.

615
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,840
But the quarterback, you got to make them last.

616
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,840
You got to protect them.

617
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:05,840
And letting them intentionally ground, that's the only thing I could think of

618
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,840
that's going to avoid those hits.

619
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,840
Okay. Yeah.

620
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,840
The 18th game is going to happen.

621
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:15,840
Yeah.

622
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:21,840
So, quarterbacks, the reason they're not getting hurt is because now all the rules

623
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,840
are trying to keep them in the game because they know that this is the reason.

624
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,840
They don't want Lamar Jackson out, they don't want Josh Allen out,

625
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,840
they don't want Jalen Hurts, Patrick Mahomes out, Joe Burrow.

626
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:36,840
They don't want any of those guys out because those are the people that people tune in to watch.

627
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:37,840
Yeah, they do.

628
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,840
Yeah, so they're protecting their investment there is what they're doing.

629
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,840
So I'm not looking at quarterbacks because people go,

630
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,840
well, quarterbacks aren't at work getting hurt this year.

631
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,840
The wide receivers were and the defensive backs were.

632
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:51,840
Yeah.

633
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,840
So they're getting hurt at an alarming rate from what I could see.

634
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,840
Yeah, we saw it a lot on the Chiefs, but it was all over the league.

635
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:00,840
It was, yeah.

636
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:06,840
And that was the reason that there was nobody available to fill in for all these injured defensive backs

637
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,840
because everybody had injured players.

638
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,840
There's like 20 of them to choose from.

639
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,840
This time it's like, is there anybody out there?

640
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,840
Look at the practice squads.

641
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,840
They had to start looking at practice squads more.

642
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:17,840
Everybody got snapped up.

643
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,840
Yeah, we were lucky about what's his name from the Titans.

644
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,840
Hopkins.

645
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,840
Yeah, DeAndre Hopkins.

646
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:32,840
And it's kind of sad that that was probably a favor that the Chiefs called in to the Titans organization.

647
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:40,840
Yeah, because we traded them a sneed for basically a couple of fucking cans of fish bait and a slap on the ass.

648
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:46,840
And then we got Hopkins as a return favor and it was a squandered season.

649
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:47,840
Yeah, it was.

650
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:52,840
We basically could have done without him this season and been just fine.

651
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:54,840
There's an argument that we could have done better.

652
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:55,840
Yeah.

653
00:32:55,840 --> 00:33:01,840
Maybe the ball would have been thrown to Worthy a little bit more or maybe to Kelsey a little bit more.

654
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:09,840
Yeah, that's something that I kind of saw in Patrick Mahomes' game is that he chose who he wanted to throw to

655
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,840
and he was trying to make it work.

656
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,840
Well, it was a trust issue, I think, because certain people weren't getting open.

657
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,840
Certain people he wasn't all that familiar with, too.

658
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:19,840
Yeah, that's true.

659
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:25,840
Now, Hollywood Brown, they said during preseason that they had great chemistry.

660
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:27,840
But do we believe what they tell us?

661
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,840
No, not now. They had nothing.

662
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:31,840
See how they lie to us.

663
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:32,840
They had nothing.

664
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,840
No, they had nothing.

665
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,840
Hollywood Brown, for someone that's that fast, I sure didn't see it in the Super Bowl.

666
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:39,840
No.

667
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:40,840
I didn't see it in the playoffs.

668
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:41,840
Playoffs?

669
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,840
Playoffs?

670
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:46,840
I tend to believe it's not there.

671
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,840
I say you let that guy walk.

672
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:50,840
I don't think he's that good.

673
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,840
Or at least, I mean, he might be better with someone else.

674
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,840
You know, I haven't heard it yet.

675
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,840
People say, well, now we know why the Titans let him go.

676
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,840
No, I think he could have been successful.

677
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:02,840
It's just it didn't work here last season.

678
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,840
I think that there was way too much going on for him to really have it.

679
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,840
He did do some good catches.

680
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:09,840
Yeah.

681
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,840
And he did help win a couple of games, so he wasn't worthless.

682
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:17,840
Yeah, and I'm positive Deandre Hopkins has a lot of great football left to play.

683
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,840
I think he does, too, but probably not in Kansas City unless he gives us a hometown discount.

684
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,840
And they want him on the roster.

685
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:30,840
And that's going to be kind of I think that's going to be the big stat, the big thing in the way is,

686
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:37,840
roster can only have so many people on it, and will he give us a hometown discount to maybe win a ring?

687
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,840
Yeah, I really think it's time for the roster limit to increase.

688
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:42,840
I think so, too.

689
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:47,840
If you're going to go to another game, 18 games, I think you need to have the roster five more people,

690
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:48,840
is what I would say.

691
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:49,840
What do you think?

692
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:50,840
Yeah, yeah.

693
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:59,840
I think currently it's 53, and you have some inactive, and then you have some like you have your emergency quarterback that doesn't count.

694
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:00,840
Yeah.

695
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,840
But if you put him in, you can't put anyone else in.

696
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:03,840
No, that's it.

697
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:04,840
Once you go to the emergency, you're locked in.

698
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,840
Yeah, it's like taking a pitcher out.

699
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:07,840
It's usually the kicker.

700
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:08,840
Yeah, yeah.

701
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:09,840
Or the punter.

702
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,840
Do you remember when Nick Lowry went in a long time ago?

703
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:15,840
Oh my gosh, I think I do.

704
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,840
Oh, what a fucking disaster.

705
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:19,840
Oh, I would be.

706
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:26,840
I forgot what all happened, but the main quarterback was down, then another quarterback was down, and then the third stringer was down.

707
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:31,840
And then it's like, we don't know who's going in, then Nick Lowry comes in.

708
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,840
Nick Lowry's going in.

709
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:37,840
That would have been funny if he had just run with the ball and he'd been able to clobber him.

710
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,840
Wouldn't that have been awesome?

711
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:43,840
Now that we know what an awful human being he was.

712
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:45,840
He was pretty gross.

713
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,840
Class A fucking pervert, I guess.

714
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:57,840
You know, given the benefit of the doubt, he may be a sexual addict, because a sexual addict, I mean, it's like being a crack addict.

715
00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:58,840
You'll do anything for it.

716
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:00,840
You'll base yourself in any way.

717
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:01,840
Sex addicts are the same way.

718
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:02,840
Yeah, that's true.

719
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:07,840
So is possible that's what his deal was, or it could just be that he was a perv?

720
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:08,840
It could have been.

721
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,840
It could be one or the other.

722
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:11,840
I always do this when I'm not sure.

723
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:12,840
I wasn't there.

724
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:13,840
Yeah.

725
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:14,840
So who knows?

726
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,840
Maybe he started with somebody that didn't like him because he snubbed him.

727
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:21,840
We don't know, but the word on the street was he was a class A pervert.

728
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:22,840
Yeah.

729
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:23,840
And a greasy one.

730
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:24,840
Yeah.

731
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:25,840
They say he sweat a lot.

732
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:26,840
Yeah.

733
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,840
He'd hit on other players wide.

734
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,840
Yeah, that's supposedly all sweaty.

735
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:37,840
Oh, this is allegedly, like I said, we weren't there.

736
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:38,840
No.

737
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,840
Even stuff that happens directly to me, most of the time I don't know the whole story anyway.

738
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:44,840
Yeah, I know what you mean.

739
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:45,840
Yeah.

740
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,840
Because if you step back and look at it, you think it's only involved you, and then when

741
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,840
you step back, you go, wait a minute, I think I was just there.

742
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,840
I don't think it had anything to do with me.

743
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:54,840
Yeah.

744
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,840
And whatever anybody else was thinking, I'm just making predictions of what I think they

745
00:36:58,840 --> 00:36:59,840
were thinking.

746
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:00,840
I think they were grilling smells fucking good.

747
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:01,840
It is, yeah.

748
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:02,840
Jeez, I don't know what it is.

749
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:03,840
Okay.

750
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:04,840
We'll see.

751
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:12,840
And you see, this is psychology on me because I went to the doctors this morning, I'm down

752
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:13,840
another 10 pounds, great.

753
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:14,840
Nice.

754
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,840
So all of a sudden my mind relieves itself and says, hey, everything smells good.

755
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,840
I knew this was going to happen.

756
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,840
It happens every time.

757
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:22,840
Yeah.

758
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,840
If I would have gained weight, I'd have been the other way going, oh man, everything smells

759
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:26,840
horrible to me.

760
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:27,840
It's psychology.

761
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,840
Well, I think we're taught to think that way.

762
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:31,840
Yeah, yeah.

763
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:33,840
I think we're taught since youth to think that way.

764
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:34,840
You're dwindling away, Mark.

765
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:35,840
You are dwindling away.

766
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:36,840
You've got to go get some nourishment.

767
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:37,840
Yep.

768
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:38,840
Yeah.

769
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:39,840
No, you're right.

770
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:40,840
We are taught that.

771
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:41,840
Yeah.

772
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,840
You get a tiny little victory, celebrate by putting yourself in massive death.

773
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,840
That's what we're taught.

774
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:47,840
Yes.

775
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:48,840
Yeah, go out and have a big party.

776
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:49,840
Yeah.

777
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:50,840
Do stuff you don't need to do.

778
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,840
I got a $50 bonus at work.

779
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,840
I'm going to book this $1,200 air flight.

780
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:57,840
Who cares?

781
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,840
I got $50.

782
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:00,840
Yep.

783
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,840
See, we're trained to think that way.

784
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,840
Or now cruises are like, book your cruise with $50 because it used to be you had to

785
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:08,840
have like a quarter of the money up front.

786
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,840
$50, no problem.

787
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:15,840
And we will even finance you the whole time for no, they don't charge you interest.

788
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,840
They make it as easy as you can.

789
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:19,840
Book two years in advance.

790
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,840
That's only $70 a month, dude.

791
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:27,840
It sounds like that cruise line made a deal with a finance and collection agency.

792
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:28,840
Probably.

793
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:33,840
And that finance slash collection agency is covering all the bad debts.

794
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:34,840
Carnival has uplift.

795
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,840
I've seen uplift on other entities.

796
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:42,840
And I don't know, it seems like you don't get charged interest, but you get charged

797
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,840
a service charge, I think.

798
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,840
Like a flat rate service charge.

799
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:47,840
Yeah, yeah, it's like, okay.

800
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:48,840
Yeah, that's a way to make cut.

801
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:49,840
Each time they do it, it's five bucks or something.

802
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:50,840
Charge interest without having to call it interest.

803
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,840
Yeah, yeah, and they're like, see, no interest.

804
00:38:53,840 --> 00:39:01,840
It's just like the cleaning fees, whatever you look on VROB or wherever you go, Airbnb.

805
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,840
Oh, that's only 170.

806
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,840
Wow, I've never seen it that low.

807
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:06,840
That's a penthouse.

808
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,840
And you click on it, fucking $180 cleaning fee.

809
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,840
Wait a minute, how'd this go to 400?

810
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,840
It's 170 a night.

811
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:18,840
Yeah, that's with the cleaning fee and then processing fees and maintenance fees and my

812
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,840
elbow itches.

813
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:27,840
Yeah, and I think that that should be illegal because it makes you click on the property

814
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,840
and look at it.

815
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,840
It's like, no, I should be able to just go, no, 400 a night altogether.

816
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,840
No, I think it's booking.com.

817
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:40,840
Yeah, it would be nice if they would give you the full included price right up front.

818
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,840
I think booking.com started doing that because they realized that people are like, fuck this.

819
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,840
You know, everything says it's this much, but it isn't.

820
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:48,840
Yeah.

821
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:54,840
You know, the only thing that they can't help is like the taxes and fees like every place,

822
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,840
Kansas City does it too.

823
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:57,840
They have a hotel tax.

824
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:58,840
Yeah.

825
00:39:58,840 --> 00:39:59,840
And a dwelling.

826
00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:00,840
Which we voted for.

827
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:01,840
Yeah.

828
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:02,840
We passed that.

829
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:03,840
We had to get the Sprint Center.

830
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:04,840
Yeah.

831
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:05,840
Yep.

832
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:09,840
So anyhow, I forgot where we were.

833
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:15,840
No, I was going to make also the analogy to when you're buying a car.

834
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,840
They'll say, you know, it's this amount, but then when you go through all the paperwork,

835
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:21,840
they add a ton of fees on.

836
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:22,840
Uh-huh.

837
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:28,840
I think you can in advance say, okay, if I buy this car, list all the fees, every fee

838
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,840
I'm going to get charged and exactly how much it is.

839
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:36,840
And then make your deal so you can make sure they don't add to those fees to make back

840
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,840
the money you got off the price of the car.

841
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:39,840
Uh-huh.

842
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,840
So like if you get them down to an extra 500, then they're going to spread that 500 around

843
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,840
in some fees and get it right back from you.

844
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:46,840
Yeah.

845
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,840
But make them commit upfront to how much the fees are going to be.

846
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:50,840
Yeah.

847
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,840
Then start bargaining about the price of the car.

848
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:53,840
Yep.

849
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:54,840
Most places won't do that.

850
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:55,840
Oh yeah, yeah.

851
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,840
And it's just like what we were talking about before, and it might have been on air, I don't

852
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,840
know, but we're talking about it.

853
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:04,840
And whenever the salesman's on your side and air quotes, and they go, I don't know if I

854
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:05,840
can get this done.

855
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:09,840
I'm going to go talk to the president right now and maybe I can get this through for you.

856
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:11,840
All you do is go, all right, I'll go with you.

857
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:12,840
Yeah.

858
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,840
I'm not going to talk about my deal and my money and my credit risk for you, so I'm going

859
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:16,840
with you.

860
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:17,840
It's all about me, my business.

861
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:18,840
I wouldn't be offended.

862
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,840
I'd be like, okay, so you got to go talk to the guy in to give me a better deal.

863
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:22,840
Fuck you.

864
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:23,840
I'm not doing it.

865
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:24,840
No.

866
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,840
Or you could say, why am I wasting time with you when you can't make the decision?

867
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:29,840
I should have been talking to him the whole time.

868
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:30,840
You're useless.

869
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:31,840
You know what?

870
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:33,840
Yeah, if that ever happens to me, I'm going to go, oh, I just want to go talk to him then.

871
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:35,840
You can't make a decision like this, obviously.

872
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:36,840
Yep.

873
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:37,840
Yep.

874
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:38,840
So yeah.

875
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:45,840
Anyhow, it was just like that time I told you when I bought my Trailhawk and it had

876
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,840
a bad battery in it.

877
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:51,840
I'm at Walmart in Raymore and I go out and it doesn't start.

878
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:53,840
I'm like, oh, fuck.

879
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,840
I had the insurance to where you could come get it.

880
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,840
I had to get basically the full nine yards.

881
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,840
Yeah, the road hazard, emergency tow, that kind of thing.

882
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,840
Yeah, so they towed it there.

883
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,840
And anyhow, they said, oh, it's a bad battery.

884
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:10,840
I'm like, okay, good.

885
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:11,840
So I go to them.

886
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:16,840
I go, well, since I bought this car two days ago, you guys are replacing it, right?

887
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:17,840
Well, I don't know.

888
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:19,840
Here, let me give you a call.

889
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,840
And the guy's name, I knew his name well.

890
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:23,840
I dealt with him enough.

891
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,840
And I said, well, is so-and-so here?

892
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:27,840
Yeah.

893
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:28,840
Call him in.

894
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:29,840
Or no, no, no, no.

895
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:30,840
They said that.

896
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:31,840
Oh, we'll call whoever.

897
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,840
They called him and I heard him on the phone go, no, no, no, no.

898
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,840
The car was as-is.

899
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:38,840
So I went ahead and I paid for it.

900
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:40,840
I was like, all right, okay, go ahead and put it in.

901
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:41,840
I'll pay for it.

902
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:47,840
And so that Monday, well, right, actually, when they're putting it in, I went on the ratings

903
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,840
and just motherfuck the hell out of them.

904
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,840
That Monday, I get a call from that area code.

905
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:55,840
Hello?

906
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,840
Hey, there was a misunderstanding.

907
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:00,840
Yeah, yeah, we'll give you your money back.

908
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,840
We'll send it to you in a check and all this stuff.

909
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,840
And then at the very end, it's like, by the way, do you mind taking down your review?

910
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:07,840
Yeah.

911
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,840
Nowadays, I wouldn't have done that.

912
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:10,840
I did at the time.

913
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,840
Nowadays, I'd be like, no, it's going to stand it.

914
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:14,840
I don't want your money.

915
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,840
But I went ahead and took it.

916
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,840
But I'm kind of pissed off at myself.

917
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:20,840
I didn't really think about it.

918
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,840
The only reason they did is because I pushed back.

919
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:24,840
Yeah.

920
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:29,840
And if now, I'd be like, that $250 doesn't mean that much to me.

921
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:30,840
I mean, yeah, I'd like to have it.

922
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:31,840
But you know what?

923
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,840
I've spent that money on stupider things.

924
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:35,840
Yeah.

925
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,840
Nowadays, I'd just be like, no, I don't want your shit.

926
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:39,840
It's staying.

927
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:40,840
Yeah.

928
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:47,840
What price to basically betray yourself and take down that honest and truthful statement

929
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:48,840
you made on the review?

930
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:49,840
Well, I was kind of gloating because it worked.

931
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:51,840
So I kind of went along those lines.

932
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:52,840
I'm like, haha, I won.

933
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:53,840
Yeah, yeah, send me a check.

934
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,840
And then later on, I thought about it.

935
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:56,840
No, no, no.

936
00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:00,840
Maybe I won, but I would have won better if I would have kept that up there and just said,

937
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:01,840
no, screw you guys.

938
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,840
And you know, that should be a decision you make in advance.

939
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:10,840
Is I'm going to post this bad review to try to get my money back and then I'll take it

940
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:11,840
down.

941
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,840
Or I'm going to post this bad review and to hell with it.

942
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,840
Well, you see, I didn't do it like that.

943
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:16,840
I've been winning or losing.

944
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:17,840
And I was like, oh, I won this.

945
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:19,840
And I was like, OK, yeah, I'll take it down.

946
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,840
But you know, if you go into it saying, OK, this is the tool I'm going to use to get my

947
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,840
money back, then it's your choice.

948
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:26,840
Yeah.

949
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:27,840
They pay you.

950
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:28,840
You take it down.

951
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:30,840
You take it down yourself because that was your intentional long.

952
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:31,840
Yeah.

953
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:32,840
And I could have put it back up, but I'm not going to do that.

954
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,840
You know, I told them I would take it down.

955
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:35,840
So I did.

956
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:36,840
You know, I'm not a liar.

957
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:37,840
Integrity.

958
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:38,840
Integrity.

959
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:39,840
Yep.

960
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,840
But anyhow, if I had to do that again, I would not.

961
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,840
I've been like, no, no, thank you.

962
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:46,840
No, no.

963
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:50,840
There's a dispensary that's kissing me off.

964
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:52,840
They've got a line.

965
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:57,840
You know, you walk into the room and the very first line you come to is for online orders

966
00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:58,840
or medical card.

967
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:00,840
I know what you're talking about.

968
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:01,840
Yes.

969
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,840
And I have a medical card, but I don't do online orders.

970
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,840
So I go right into that line and I stand at the front.

971
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,840
And then one of the button tenders will say, do you have an online order?

972
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:10,840
And I'll say no.

973
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,840
And before I can say I have a medical card, they start carving at me.

974
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:16,840
Well, that line is for online orders.

975
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,840
You should be in like you can take either one of these other two lines, is it?

976
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,840
And I say, is that the one near us?

977
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,840
It's the one on 103rd and State line.

978
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:26,840
Yes.

979
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:28,840
Oh, no, 103rd and State line.

980
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:29,840
No, that's a different one.

981
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:30,840
Okay.

982
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,840
And then I said, but I have a medical card.

983
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,840
And this is the line for medical card, right?

984
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,840
Oh, oh, oh, yeah.

985
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:45,840
And this has happened three times to me that they immediately presume that I'm stupid and I'm in the wrong line.

986
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:51,840
They must have zero medical card customers there because none of their button tenders seem to have any idea

987
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,840
that medical card customers come in and get in that line.

988
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:56,840
They all think they're going to go through the drive-through.

989
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:57,840
Yeah.

990
00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:59,840
Well, I got something similar when you're done with this.

991
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:00,840
Oh, yeah.

992
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:07,840
I was just going to say that next time I go in, I'm going to tell the person at the desk that this has happened to me three times.

993
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,840
I get into this line and they tell me I'm doing it wrong.

994
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,840
I said, if it happens this time, then I won't be back.

995
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:14,840
There's other places.

996
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:15,840
Yeah.

997
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:21,840
And I say, please let your button tenders know that I'm doing it right and they're screwing up.

998
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,840
You know, I'll try to say it nicer.

999
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,840
But seriously, I'm going to tell them and give them an advance warning.

1000
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:29,840
I said, you screw this up again and I won't be back.

1001
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:31,840
I'm not coming back. Yeah.

1002
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:37,840
Because I'm tired of getting yelled at by your employees who think I'm doing it wrong.

1003
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:38,840
Yeah.

1004
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:39,840
Screw that.

1005
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:40,840
Yeah, no.

1006
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,840
There's a hundred other places that want my money.

1007
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:43,840
Yeah.

1008
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:44,840
That's how you do it, man.

1009
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:46,840
If someone does you stupid like that, you know what?

1010
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,840
You're not on my register anymore.

1011
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:50,840
It's like you closed down in my mind.

1012
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:54,840
Yeah, and then if they get pissy that I'm making them do it right.

1013
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:55,840
Who cares?

1014
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:56,840
That I'm done anyway.

1015
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:57,840
Yeah, it's like that's all right.

1016
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,840
Fucking do this and you won't see me again, so you won't have to worry about it.

1017
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:01,840
Yeah.

1018
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:02,840
Yeah.

1019
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,840
My deal is, okay, there's that McDonald's here.

1020
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:06,840
You on 85th?

1021
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:07,840
Mm-hmm.

1022
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:09,840
Or off of 85th or whatever.

1023
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,840
Okay, some mornings I just don't have time to get anything at the house.

1024
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:14,840
I'm like, you know what?

1025
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,840
I'll just run by there real quick and grab it, okay?

1026
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:17,840
Yeah.

1027
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,840
So number one, their screen's down.

1028
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,840
Someone hit it and you can't read it, okay?

1029
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:25,840
Number two, they have AI greet you.

1030
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:26,840
Yeah.

1031
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:28,840
I love that they McDonald's.

1032
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:30,840
And I'm like, yeah.

1033
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:32,840
And I go, number four.

1034
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:36,840
Number four is the two breakfast burritos, hash rounds, and a drink, right, and a coffee.

1035
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:39,840
So I say number four, okay?

1036
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,840
And then it goes, are you talking about the burritos?

1037
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:43,840
Yes.

1038
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:51,840
So when I get around and then I go around, they give me one burrito and one drink.

1039
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:57,840
I'm like, isn't that whole purpose of saying that number four means a combo meal, right?

1040
00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:58,840
Yeah.

1041
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:00,840
And it's supposed to make it foolproof.

1042
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:01,840
Yeah.

1043
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,840
But somehow they're able to screw it up.

1044
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:04,840
Yeah.

1045
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,840
Well, I think they're trying to make you download the app.

1046
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:08,840
Oh, yeah.

1047
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,840
If you download the app, you know it's right because it's like right there, okay, they're

1048
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:13,840
charging me for this.

1049
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:15,840
This is what I'm getting at 1030.

1050
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:16,840
Okay.

1051
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:17,840
Yeah.

1052
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:18,840
Yeah.

1053
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:24,840
That's, that is another common business tactic is to force the customers into doing what

1054
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,840
you want by making the service just kind of unusable unless they do.

1055
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,840
You know, get them hooked on the service and then just throw up roadblocks until they pay

1056
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:33,840
the monthly fee.

1057
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:37,840
I have no idea if this is true, but that's the way I think it is.

1058
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:39,840
It's allegedly all of this.

1059
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,840
I don't know if that's actually what's going on, but I mean, that's the way I kind of see

1060
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:44,840
it.

1061
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:45,840
Yeah.

1062
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:46,840
Yeah.

1063
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:47,840
I agree.

1064
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,240
I've got a music app that started out, you know, just lets me access the files that are

1065
00:48:51,240 --> 00:48:52,240
on my own phone.

1066
00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:53,240
Uh-huh.

1067
00:48:53,240 --> 00:48:57,840
You know, that's all I want to do is I've got like, you know, five or six gig of music

1068
00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,840
on my phone and I want to listen to it.

1069
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,840
So all I need is a simple app to access it.

1070
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,840
And that app worked fine for a while.

1071
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:10,840
And then it started when I'd open it, it would start with an ad and say, you know, click

1072
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,840
here to proceed to the app.

1073
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:17,840
Now it's gotten to the point it starts with an ad and it says click here to proceed to

1074
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:18,840
the app.

1075
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:19,840
So I do.

1076
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:22,840
And the next thing that pops up is another ad.

1077
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:24,840
And then I click past that.

1078
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:29,840
And then the next one that pops up is upgrade to our premium service for X dollars a month.

1079
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:30,840
Is that tuning?

1080
00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:31,840
This is Musio.

1081
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:32,840
Oh, okay.

1082
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:33,840
Tuning does that too.

1083
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:36,840
And then I click past that.

1084
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:40,840
And then it wants me to choose a theme for my layout.

1085
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:44,840
It's like, I just wanted to play a freaking song five minutes ago and I'm having to click

1086
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:45,840
through all this garbage.

1087
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:46,840
Yeah, it's like, no thank you.

1088
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:48,840
I'll just go ahead and watch TV.

1089
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:49,840
Fuck off.

1090
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:54,840
Yeah, but there are a ton of people that would look at that and instead of saying, screw

1091
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:58,840
you, I'm going to find something else, they would say, okay, take my money.

1092
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,840
I will never do that.

1093
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,840
It's like, you keep making it inconvenient and difficult for me, I'm not going to give

1094
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:05,840
you the money you want.

1095
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:06,840
I'll go somewhere else.

1096
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:07,840
Yeah, absolutely.

1097
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,840
I'll go to a younger app trying to prove itself by giving you free stuff.

1098
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:16,840
But as long as there are people who are willing to throw money at it to make the problems

1099
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:21,840
go away, that's going to be the business model and the rest of us just get dragged down with

1100
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:22,840
it.

1101
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:27,840
But they're apps that I'm losing because they're making it way too difficult to use

1102
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:28,840
the free version.

1103
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:32,840
And they're still advertising to me on the free versions, so they're getting their money.

1104
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:34,840
It's not like I'm taking advantage of them.

1105
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:38,840
They gave it to me for free because they knew I'd have to see their ads.

1106
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:43,840
But suddenly that's not good enough anymore.

1107
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,840
And really the tie in here is that's where the NFL is going.

1108
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:48,840
Yeah, it is.

1109
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,840
The NFL is fully on board with all of this.

1110
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:58,840
So whatever you love about football either is going to get modified, taken away, or put

1111
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,840
behind a paywall.

1112
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:02,840
That's their business model.

1113
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:03,840
Oh, you want this?

1114
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:04,840
Pay extra for it.

1115
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:05,840
Yeah.

1116
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:06,840
Oh, you really want this?

1117
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:07,840
Pay a lot extra for it.

1118
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:09,840
Yeah, that's going to be their business model.

1119
00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:11,840
And they're going to ruin the game.

1120
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:13,840
They're just going to destroy football.

1121
00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:15,840
I think they're well on their way.

1122
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,840
But at least I was able to watch it during the fun years of the 60s and 70s.

1123
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:20,840
Yeah, me too.

1124
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,840
Not fun in Kansas City, but fun everywhere else.

1125
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:25,840
Well, I'll say late 60s.

1126
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:30,840
I don't remember much football before 67 when the Packers beat the Chiefs in the Super Bowl,

1127
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:32,840
the very first Super Bowl.

1128
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:34,840
Oh yeah, that's right.

1129
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,840
And then we won number four against Minnesota.

1130
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:40,840
And then subsequently, let's see.

1131
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:42,840
And wait until number 54.

1132
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:43,840
It's 50 years apart.

1133
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:44,840
Yeah, they did.

1134
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,840
From number four to number 54.

1135
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:48,840
I think we deserve a few after that, don't you?

1136
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:49,840
Yeah.

1137
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:51,840
And Detroit's still looking.

1138
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:52,840
Cleveland's still looking.

1139
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:54,840
Cleveland is.

1140
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:55,840
Yeah.

1141
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,840
Detroit, man, boy, how would you like to be them?

1142
00:51:58,840 --> 00:51:59,840
Oh gosh.

1143
00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:00,840
Oh my God.

1144
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:04,840
Yeah, the high they were riding last season and now it just looks like.

1145
00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:06,840
Oh yeah, they couldn't wait to go to the Super Bowl.

1146
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,840
Are they even going to be a decent team next year?

1147
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:09,840
You got Jared Goff.

1148
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:10,840
I'm sorry, man.

1149
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,840
Look, the thing I said from the beginning last season,

1150
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:18,840
well, probably about on their seven games in when they both looked at like world beaters.

1151
00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:19,840
Okay.

1152
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,840
Yeah, at the end of the day, you still have Jared Goff and Sam Darnold.

1153
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,840
At some point, Sam Darnold's going to be Sam Darnold,

1154
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:28,840
and that's during the playoffs when he has bigger competition.

1155
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:29,840
Yeah.

1156
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:31,840
Jared Goff, same thing.

1157
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:35,840
Yeah, Kirk Cousins turned into Kirk Cousins when he got tired late in the season.

1158
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:39,840
And that's what we've been saying the whole fucking time is.

1159
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:43,840
There's a reason they are the second or third tier quarterbacks.

1160
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:48,840
It's because their staffs look good on paper, but they don't win.

1161
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:52,840
I guess that's the ego of the general manager and or coach saying,

1162
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:54,840
oh yeah, but here it's going to be different.

1163
00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:55,840
I can get the more out of it.

1164
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:57,840
I can make it work.

1165
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,840
That's like marrying somebody because, oh, I can change them.

1166
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:03,840
Yeah, that's the same thing.

1167
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:04,840
It's the same delusion.

1168
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:08,840
It's like, no, get what you want instead of what you think you can turn that into.

1169
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:10,840
Our head coach is really good at talking.

1170
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:12,840
Hey, just get this guy, man.

1171
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:13,840
We can make it work, man.

1172
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:15,840
This defense here, yeah.

1173
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,840
We're going to win every game 17 to 10, but don't worry, we'll get it.

1174
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:22,840
And some of those decisions are because they decided to cheap out in one area

1175
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:24,840
so they could sign some expensive area.

1176
00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:28,840
And do they ever really tell us the real numbers of what they sign these people for?

1177
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:29,840
No.

1178
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:31,840
Does anyone ever check on that?

1179
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,840
How do we know that they really signed for that amount?

1180
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:35,840
They just tell us that.

1181
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:37,840
Tom Brady might still be getting a check.

1182
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:38,840
Who knows?

1183
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:39,840
We don't know.

1184
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:42,840
If it's not in their best interest to tell us, they won't tell us.

1185
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:43,840
Yeah.

1186
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,840
Remember how closed mouth Bill Belichick was about everything?

1187
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:47,840
I loved it.

1188
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:52,840
The rest of the league is that way about stuff that they really don't think is any of our business.

1189
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:54,840
That whole thing of Bill Belichick started early on.

1190
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:55,840
Yeah.

1191
00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,840
And so they kept asking stupid questions, so he quit being animated.

1192
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:00,840
Mm-hmm.

1193
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:11,840
Yeah, we decided to kind of go that way because it made the most sense.

1194
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:17,840
And under his contract, he is legally required to attend those news conferences, press conferences,

1195
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:18,840
and answer the questions.

1196
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:20,840
But he doesn't have to make them fun.

1197
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:21,840
Yep.

1198
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:27,840
And if the reporters were asking decent, interesting, intelligent, insightful questions, he'd be all right.

1199
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:28,840
He would probably do it differently.

1200
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:29,840
Yeah.

1201
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:30,840
I'll answer.

1202
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:32,840
The stupid pandering questions that everyone have.

1203
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:36,840
What were you thinking when it was like third and 17 in your sentence?

1204
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:38,840
Everyone was going to ask that question.

1205
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:39,840
It doesn't matter anyway.

1206
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,840
And his response is never going to make any difference anyway.

1207
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,840
So he just says the most boring, dull crap ever.

1208
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:46,840
See, I'd be the opposite.

1209
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:47,840
I'd feed a full of shit on this.

1210
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:48,840
Think about Pop Tarts.

1211
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,840
I was really fucking hungry.

1212
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:54,840
We need a head coach like that.

1213
00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:55,840
We do.

1214
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:56,840
Man, Pop Tarts are good.

1215
00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:57,840
Oh my gosh.

1216
00:54:57,840 --> 00:54:58,840
Yep.

1217
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,840
And think about benching the starter in the third quarter and bringing the backup.

1218
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:02,840
Yeah.

1219
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,840
Now, I was thinking about barbecue and getting in my hot tub later.

1220
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:06,840
Yeah, yeah.

1221
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,840
You know, just blow off the stupid questions.

1222
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:12,840
Who's the new hot blonde over in the left?

1223
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,840
No, not her.

1224
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:16,840
Him.

1225
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:19,840
Oh my God.

1226
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:20,840
No, man.

1227
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,840
That would be funny if he had a head coach making fun of shit like that.

1228
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:24,840
Oh yeah.

1229
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:26,840
I mean, he's still obeying his contract.

1230
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:31,840
He's answering the questions, but if the question is stupid or ridiculous, he gives a stupid

1231
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:32,840
or ridiculous answer.

1232
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,840
And if they don't like it, okay, I don't have to do one then, right?

1233
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:37,840
Ask a better question next time.

1234
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:38,840
Yeah.

1235
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:42,840
The caliber of questions need to be raised before my caliber is raised.

1236
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:43,840
Yeah.

1237
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,840
But we know how controlled the NFL is.

1238
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:50,840
I mean, think about the terminology that everybody uses.

1239
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:55,840
You know, it would be funny if the coach said every time they fucking show me, I'm scratching

1240
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:59,840
my ass or something, could you make sure and have them edit that shit out?

1241
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:01,840
They have a seven second delay.

1242
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:02,840
Yeah.

1243
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:03,840
And be real serious about it.

1244
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:05,840
Jerry Jones got caught that way.

1245
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:11,840
It was like the second year maybe of his new stadium, because they're still showing him

1246
00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:12,840
every chance they could.

1247
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:13,840
Oh yeah, yeah, they still do.

1248
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:18,840
The camera went to him and he had his index finger up to the third knuckle in his nose.

1249
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:22,840
Vic Fangio too, that he was head coach of the Broncos.

1250
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:25,840
And I don't think the camera got it at first.

1251
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:28,840
They thought maybe he was just leaning on his hand, but then he started twisting it

1252
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:32,840
as the camera went zoop.

1253
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,840
They did that this year too and I can't remember who it was.

1254
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:36,840
Yeah, I remember that.

1255
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:41,840
But that's the image I will always have of Jerry Jones is that index finger up almost

1256
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:46,840
to the first knuckle into his nose and then he started twisting it and the camera just

1257
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:47,840
zoom.

1258
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:52,840
What I think is better is whenever a player is having a problem with their jock strap,

1259
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:56,840
they're overtly fidgeting with their ball sack.

1260
00:56:56,840 --> 00:57:02,840
You see him get away from that real quick too.

1261
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:06,840
You see a look on his face like, shit, how come Riley keeps ducking?

1262
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:11,840
Hang on, I've got to straighten this shit out and then they're like paying to him.

1263
00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:12,840
Oh man.

1264
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:14,840
Okay, I've got a story here.

1265
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:19,840
Okay, with NFL in off-season mode, Kansas City Chief Superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes

1266
00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:23,840
has had plenty of time to enjoy other sports as a spectator.

1267
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:28,840
Just take for example Monday night's heavyweight Big 12 basketball showdown between number

1268
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:37,840
10 Texas Tech Red Raiders and number four, Houston Cougars at United Supermarket Arena

1269
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:38,840
in Lubbock, Texas.

1270
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:43,840
So it's a home game where the three-time Super Bowl champion showed up to support his alma

1271
00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:44,840
field.

1272
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:48,840
Mahomes, who played three seasons of Texas Tech football before turning pro in 2017,

1273
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:50,840
sat next to the Red Raiders bench.

1274
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:55,840
It's hard for viewers at home to miss Mahomes, especially with the attention given to him

1275
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:56,840
by ESPN's coverage.

1276
00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:57,840
Yeah.

1277
00:57:57,840 --> 00:58:01,840
So a lot of people left comments on X.

1278
00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,840
There's like 30 comments that they just showed and people are pissed.

1279
00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:08,840
They're like, look, we see Mahomes every day during football season.

1280
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:09,840
Overexposure.

1281
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:11,840
Yeah, we know he's there.

1282
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:13,840
Can you please quit showing him?

1283
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:15,840
But the problem was he was right next to the bench.

1284
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:20,840
So every time I looked at some of the footage, I didn't watch the game personally, but you

1285
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:25,840
could see him looking towards the bench and the coach and the assistants.

1286
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:27,840
And they're like, oh, wait a minute, Mahomes is more interesting.

1287
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:29,840
And they go on him.

1288
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:32,840
And no, it was funny because I agree with him.

1289
00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:34,840
They probably showed him 20 times.

1290
00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:36,840
Yeah, your issue is not Patrick.

1291
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:37,840
Your issue is the TV coverage.

1292
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:40,840
Yeah, he didn't ask him to take all this footage.

1293
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:44,840
You could also see him kind of going, you know, he didn't say it, but you can see him

1294
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:46,840
going, fuck, come on, man, I'm trying to watch this game.

1295
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:47,840
Could you guys please?

1296
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:52,840
You know, because every time it's distracting, you know, they're at you, you know, you're

1297
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:53,840
like, OK, am I?

1298
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:54,840
No, I'm not picking my nose.

1299
00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:55,840
No, I'm not coughing.

1300
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:57,840
You know, yeah.

1301
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:02,840
So anyhow, shoot your true.

1302
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:03,840
Is there anything else we need to cover?

1303
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,840
You want to go to the music creeps?

1304
00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:10,840
I think we should take a bathroom break and then go to the music creeps.

1305
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:11,840
That sounds good.

1306
00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:12,840
Yeah.

1307
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:39,840
I think this coffee needs to go somewhere.
