straight. Welcome into the show. I am incredibly

00:02:23.050 --> 00:02:25.860
happy to be back. I don't get a lot of opportunities

00:02:25.860 --> 00:02:29.159
to do this show these days. My high school coaching

00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:33.819
season is pretty hectic so far. Started off 2

00:02:33.819 --> 00:02:38.039
-2. Ran against some elite competition. But we

00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:39.819
started off 2 -2, looking to turn a corner here.

00:02:40.460 --> 00:02:42.120
Actually, by the time you guys hear this tonight.

00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:46.500
So wish us luck when you guys hear this. But

00:02:46.500 --> 00:02:49.840
looking to turn the corner there. So my schedule

00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:51.780
is all over the place. We play Thursday sometimes,

00:02:51.979 --> 00:02:55.219
Friday sometimes. film whatever right so i have

00:02:55.219 --> 00:02:57.699
a lot going on when it comes to that and of course

00:02:57.699 --> 00:03:00.960
i also teach right so there's a lot happening

00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:07.659
um in regards to that however i am i am happy

00:03:07.659 --> 00:03:10.699
and excited to be back uh talking to you guys

00:03:10.699 --> 00:03:12.240
that's how you guys hear this morning i'm actually

00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:14.639
recording this thursday night the thursday night

00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:17.479
football game just kicked off actually um but

00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:20.360
but you'll hear this friday morning or friday

00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:23.509
sometime in the day But I am definitely excited

00:03:23.509 --> 00:03:26.210
to be back. Of course, we're going to have the

00:03:26.210 --> 00:03:28.310
NFL. We're going to talk about the WNBA. They're

00:03:28.310 --> 00:03:31.449
on fire. You guys know I love the WNBA. And,

00:03:31.490 --> 00:03:34.770
of course, we'll have Best for Last, as always,

00:03:34.909 --> 00:03:37.009
right? And so some of our football traditions

00:03:37.009 --> 00:03:40.650
won't happen this season. So, like, Jack's Pack,

00:03:40.770 --> 00:03:42.349
for instance, I like to keep a track over the

00:03:42.349 --> 00:03:44.270
course of the season. Well, guys, I'm going to

00:03:44.270 --> 00:03:47.030
be honest with you. Doing this every week has

00:03:47.030 --> 00:03:48.650
become difficult. So, of course, if we miss a

00:03:48.650 --> 00:03:50.919
week, it throws off the count. whatever right

00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:52.060
and then we didn't we didn't have opportunity

00:03:52.060 --> 00:03:55.000
to do our grid either um our big our big preseason

00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.379
prediction show um but but the schedule's balancing

00:03:59.379 --> 00:04:03.400
itself out a little bit so hopefully um with

00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:04.979
any real amount of luck kind of pulling back

00:04:04.979 --> 00:04:07.719
the curtains you guys will get a show every friday

00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:11.500
or saturday uh from here on out at least through

00:04:11.500 --> 00:04:12.840
the rest of football season then we'll evaluate

00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:17.819
of course after that But enough about me, enough

00:04:17.819 --> 00:04:19.959
about personal, enough about stuff that you guys

00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:22.000
honestly didn't turn on this show to hear about.

00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:25.000
Let's get into the NFL. Let's talk about week

00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.000
four. So first, we're a month through the season,

00:04:27.139 --> 00:04:29.319
right? I don't want to get into anything, any

00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.699
team particular just yet. We're a month through

00:04:31.699 --> 00:04:34.040
the season, right? And there's some trends going

00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:36.319
on around the NFL. Number one, namely quarterback

00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:40.980
play is down. And that's not just, you know,

00:04:40.980 --> 00:04:42.839
with guys capturing the headlines. Like quarterback

00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:44.819
play is down this year. Defenses are better.

00:04:45.019 --> 00:04:47.620
I think right now we're in the defensive swing

00:04:47.620 --> 00:04:51.300
of the decade. So if you notice, if you go back

00:04:51.300 --> 00:04:54.819
through football history, there's trends typically

00:04:54.819 --> 00:04:57.759
up and down. Every 10 years or so, you get about

00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:01.000
six and a half, maybe seven years of great offense.

00:05:01.740 --> 00:05:03.560
And then you have like a transition year. And

00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:05.220
then there's two to three years where defense

00:05:05.220 --> 00:05:08.470
is amazing. defenses catch up there's no new

00:05:08.470 --> 00:05:10.689
tricks the young coordinators are in there now

00:05:10.689 --> 00:05:14.009
who have seen all the different levels like because

00:05:14.009 --> 00:05:17.069
be honest the old and the new is in high school

00:05:17.069 --> 00:05:20.329
the old and the new is in the is in the college

00:05:20.329 --> 00:05:24.170
level the lower level college level kind of what's

00:05:24.170 --> 00:05:26.790
tried and true is in the nfl so when you get

00:05:26.790 --> 00:05:29.370
these young hot shot coaches that fly up from

00:05:29.370 --> 00:05:35.259
let's say texas 5a head coach to d2 coordinator

00:05:35.259 --> 00:05:39.360
to d1 position coach and then they fly up and

00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:41.879
they're like 32 33 years old or 35 years old

00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:43.579
and they're in the nfl now well they've seen

00:05:43.579 --> 00:05:47.480
these trends come up all the way through so you've

00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.660
seen so much you see so many different schemes

00:05:49.660 --> 00:05:51.439
there's so many different trends it's a little

00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:53.220
different now so i think quarterback play is

00:05:53.220 --> 00:05:54.959
down right now i think offensive play is down

00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:57.060
right now in general because defenses have caught

00:05:57.060 --> 00:05:59.519
up so now we need to look at that next wave of

00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:02.509
innovation whether it is your Kyle Shanahan,

00:06:02.670 --> 00:06:04.990
your Sean McVay, your Cliff Kingsbury, or if

00:06:04.990 --> 00:06:08.629
it's a new wave, even the college level, yes,

00:06:08.850 --> 00:06:12.069
there are explosions. Like, Georgia and Tennessee

00:06:12.069 --> 00:06:16.449
went at it, right, on Rocky Top. And it was a

00:06:16.449 --> 00:06:21.069
feast. It was a show. A lot more college games

00:06:21.069 --> 00:06:23.769
are in their 20s at the final score, right? And

00:06:23.769 --> 00:06:25.670
so I think now, you know, that has to come with,

00:06:25.709 --> 00:06:28.149
you know, revenue sharing, NIL, and balancing

00:06:28.149 --> 00:06:31.220
the talent, but also, again, defenses have caught

00:06:31.220 --> 00:06:34.339
up. You know, we're what? I mean, it's 2025.

00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:38.279
You know, this offensive spread, the ball revolution

00:06:38.279 --> 00:06:42.160
started in 20... I mean, when did Brady... Brady

00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:46.100
and Belichick in 07. Peyton Manning's 55 touchdown

00:06:46.100 --> 00:06:50.060
year, I want to say it was 2016. It might have

00:06:50.060 --> 00:06:51.259
been somewhere around there. So if you think

00:06:51.259 --> 00:06:53.759
about it, 2016, Peyton Manning goes to 55 touchdowns.

00:06:55.300 --> 00:07:00.639
Well, in the event, 10 years later, Defenses

00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:04.360
have caught up. You also look at not only Peyton

00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:07.079
Manning's Revolution year, the RPO game gets

00:07:07.079 --> 00:07:10.560
popular four or five years ago. Well, now defenses

00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:14.120
have seen every RPO you can imagine for the last

00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:17.819
four or five years. So again, now defenses, that's

00:07:17.819 --> 00:07:20.680
another advantage to defenses now, are catching

00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:23.019
up. You're starting to see a lot more defenses

00:07:23.019 --> 00:07:26.000
defend those RPOs a lot cleaner than they had

00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:30.110
previously. The fear of the Chiefs, too high

00:07:30.110 --> 00:07:31.949
safeties. Everybody went too high safeties, and,

00:07:32.009 --> 00:07:34.850
like, the offenses have not figured it out yet.

00:07:35.149 --> 00:07:38.009
Like, people went too high safeties, and offenses

00:07:38.009 --> 00:07:40.769
has just not, it's kerfuffled everybody. Like,

00:07:40.769 --> 00:07:42.209
no one can figure out how to beat a too high

00:07:42.209 --> 00:07:45.870
safety defense. And it's just, you know, it's

00:07:45.870 --> 00:07:48.750
changed the way football is played. I also think

00:07:48.750 --> 00:07:50.990
statistically we're going to get a bad rap in

00:07:50.990 --> 00:07:54.800
this era because of the kickoff. There's been

00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.339
multiple games now so far in just the first month

00:07:57.339 --> 00:07:59.279
of the season where the kickoff has, like, decided

00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:01.920
the game. I forgot what game it was, but the

00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:04.500
ball ends up landing one yard short of the landing

00:08:04.500 --> 00:08:07.800
zone. And so the kickoff goes from, like, the

00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:11.240
25 to the 35 or the 40. Well, 15 yards later,

00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:14.560
they were in field goal range. You know, so especially

00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:18.019
you got guys like Brandon Aubrey. Like, you mess

00:08:18.019 --> 00:08:21.139
up with the landing zone against him, 15 or first

00:08:21.139 --> 00:08:23.220
down later, you're in field goal range to win

00:08:23.220 --> 00:08:26.199
the game. Also, so many kicks now are starting

00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:31.220
to get to 30, 35, 33, 34, that the passing yards

00:08:31.220 --> 00:08:36.679
are down because you're not getting the ball

00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:38.340
in the 20, 25 anymore. You're getting the ball

00:08:38.340 --> 00:08:42.940
in the 30, 35, 40 in some cases. I was watching

00:08:42.940 --> 00:08:45.480
one game, and it was like the ball felt like

00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:48.610
it started on the 45 every time. And it's like,

00:08:48.669 --> 00:08:50.350
well, yeah, there's only 55 yards left. Well,

00:08:50.350 --> 00:08:51.809
if you run it for half, that means there's only

00:08:51.809 --> 00:08:55.690
27 yards available per possession for a quarterback.

00:08:56.509 --> 00:08:59.730
27, let's say average, you get 35 yards of possession.

00:08:59.929 --> 00:09:03.570
You get 12 possessions. That's 350, but that's

00:09:03.570 --> 00:09:05.970
saying you score a touchdown every single time

00:09:05.970 --> 00:09:12.370
to get 360, give or take. So it's hard, right?

00:09:13.090 --> 00:09:16.090
Attempts are down. Yards are down. I think that

00:09:16.090 --> 00:09:18.409
the kickoff is... ridiculous like now we're starting

00:09:18.409 --> 00:09:20.690
to affect the offense so at first the dynamic

00:09:20.690 --> 00:09:22.970
kickoff was to actually make the play exciting

00:09:22.970 --> 00:09:25.929
so then when it took the extra point and slid

00:09:25.929 --> 00:09:28.210
it back to the 17 it was to make the play exciting

00:09:28.210 --> 00:09:30.289
like for instance if that was a situation where

00:09:30.289 --> 00:09:33.929
you extra pointed from the 17 in a blistering

00:09:33.929 --> 00:09:36.929
blizzard or you go for two on the three going

00:09:36.929 --> 00:09:39.370
for two anything but if you get it half the time

00:09:39.370 --> 00:09:41.350
is the same as you going perfect on those extra

00:09:41.350 --> 00:09:46.039
points so You know, that made decision -making,

00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.419
and it didn't really affect any other part of

00:09:48.419 --> 00:09:51.860
the game, truly, besides late -game decision

00:09:51.860 --> 00:09:53.879
-making and weather -based decision -making.

00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:58.120
The special teams now are starting to negatively

00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.279
affect the offense. Like, because, again, numbers

00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:05.659
are down. The big bombs are down. You know, it's

00:10:05.659 --> 00:10:07.940
just down right now. And quarterback play seems

00:10:07.940 --> 00:10:09.700
to have regressed. But then we look at guys'

00:10:09.820 --> 00:10:12.700
numbers. Oh, yeah, he was 18 of 22 for 200 yards.

00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:14.480
Well, if you think about it, he probably got

00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:18.080
70 -ish percent of the yards possible. But think

00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.240
about it, he lost 15, 20 yards potentially of

00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.600
possession every time the kickoff happened. So

00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:24.960
that's something I think needs to be evaluated

00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:30.019
by the NFL is the kickoff rule. I am enjoying

00:10:30.019 --> 00:10:32.820
a lot of the competitive football. I think the

00:10:32.820 --> 00:10:34.539
league is pretty balanced this year. I don't

00:10:34.539 --> 00:10:37.570
think there's any juggernaut out there. I think

00:10:37.570 --> 00:10:39.190
that the league is pretty balanced this year.

00:10:39.269 --> 00:10:41.610
You got guys going up and down, especially in

00:10:41.610 --> 00:10:43.370
that first month. After that first month, you're

00:10:43.370 --> 00:10:46.090
trying to figure out who you are, what you are,

00:10:46.190 --> 00:10:48.830
what you do well, and how you can make what you

00:10:48.830 --> 00:10:52.230
don't do well not kill you when it matters. And

00:10:52.230 --> 00:10:54.190
so that's kind of what the first month of the

00:10:54.190 --> 00:10:55.909
season is about. I think a lot of teams accomplished

00:10:55.909 --> 00:10:59.889
that goal. But speaking of teams, speaking of

00:10:59.889 --> 00:11:01.570
teams that, whoa, could have came out of week

00:11:01.570 --> 00:11:03.889
four looking miserable, the Kansas City Chiefs.

00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:08.379
Went into week three 0 -2. They get an ugly win

00:11:08.379 --> 00:11:11.139
versus the Giants. There was a moment there and

00:11:11.139 --> 00:11:14.779
Nick Wright calls the tackle that turned the

00:11:14.779 --> 00:11:19.700
tide. I call it one giant blunder where Patrick

00:11:19.700 --> 00:11:21.340
Mahomes throws the ball behind the line and it

00:11:21.340 --> 00:11:23.720
skips. And the Giants player, instead of full

00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:27.299
speed swarming and attacking the football, Patrick

00:11:27.299 --> 00:11:29.620
Mahomes runs up, gets the ball away from him.

00:11:30.299 --> 00:11:33.899
And it ends up being a situation where that backwards

00:11:33.899 --> 00:11:36.840
pass does not turn into it. I mean, it was going

00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:39.960
to be a walk -in touchdown. He picks it up with

00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:42.059
any kind of speed. 13 -6 right before halftime.

00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:44.980
Instead, it's not that. Chiefs turn around, win

00:11:44.980 --> 00:11:47.279
that game, turn around, then destroy Baltimore.

00:11:47.620 --> 00:11:49.799
Now, they destroyed what was left of Baltimore.

00:11:50.580 --> 00:11:53.759
Baltimore is incredibly beat up right now. And

00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:59.139
I do mean incredibly beat up right now. They're

00:11:59.139 --> 00:12:02.460
just not healthy. I mean, they've got guys out

00:12:02.460 --> 00:12:05.519
everywhere, the latest few, including Kyle Hamilton

00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:08.580
and Lamar Jackson. However, the Chiefs took advantage,

00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:11.899
and they were able to succeed well. Coming out

00:12:11.899 --> 00:12:14.480
of this situation, the Chiefs are 2 -2. They

00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:17.259
lost two games that they probably shouldn't have,

00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:20.179
but at least one game they probably shouldn't

00:12:20.179 --> 00:12:22.240
have. And then, of course, you beat the Ravens.

00:12:22.340 --> 00:12:25.370
So the Chiefs are sitting here now at 2 -2. The

00:12:25.370 --> 00:12:26.950
whole division is in front of them. The Chargers

00:12:26.950 --> 00:12:28.950
are getting a little beat up themselves, and

00:12:28.950 --> 00:12:30.629
we'll talk about them later. But they're getting

00:12:30.629 --> 00:12:33.250
a little beat up themselves. Joe Alts out. Of

00:12:33.250 --> 00:12:34.610
course, they already didn't have Rashawn Slater,

00:12:34.629 --> 00:12:36.830
so now your bookend tackles are out. And they

00:12:36.830 --> 00:12:40.009
blew a game to the Giants in Jackson Dart's first

00:12:40.009 --> 00:12:46.009
start, which greatly affects the AFC West standings

00:12:46.009 --> 00:12:48.269
because now that gap the Chiefs have to run is

00:12:48.269 --> 00:12:50.610
a little bit smaller, especially with the Chiefs

00:12:50.610 --> 00:12:53.029
already owning a Giants win and you already owning

00:12:53.029 --> 00:12:58.659
a Giants loss. So that gap to catch L .A.'s already

00:12:58.659 --> 00:13:01.080
reduced compared to what it could have been.

00:13:01.899 --> 00:13:04.059
But the Chiefs, man, the Chiefs are the Chiefs.

00:13:04.059 --> 00:13:06.639
They find a way to figure it out. And it took,

00:13:06.700 --> 00:13:08.740
you know, it's taking Patrick Mahomes when there's

00:13:08.740 --> 00:13:10.500
been a big change. It's taking Patrick Mahomes,

00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:14.220
you know, three to five games to figure it out.

00:13:14.299 --> 00:13:16.740
And then once he figures it out, him and Andy

00:13:16.740 --> 00:13:19.980
free start to roll. And L .A., you know, the

00:13:19.980 --> 00:13:22.419
last week was game four. Kind of like, okay.

00:13:22.779 --> 00:13:24.740
This is who we got on offense. This is who we

00:13:24.740 --> 00:13:26.820
got on the line. This is who we got at skill.

00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:30.639
How can we make these guys better than they are?

00:13:30.700 --> 00:13:33.879
How can we have them playing over their skis

00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:37.779
where they're just 10 ,000 % better than what

00:13:37.779 --> 00:13:44.340
they normally are? With that came a lot of improvement.

00:13:44.639 --> 00:13:46.340
You know, the Chiefs are starting to pick at

00:13:46.340 --> 00:13:48.500
that two -high state to look a little bit. And

00:13:48.500 --> 00:13:49.820
then they're starting to, when the people go

00:13:49.820 --> 00:13:51.559
one high, they're starting to get those bombs

00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:54.860
off again. So, shout out to Chiefs for kind of

00:13:54.860 --> 00:13:58.879
figuring it out. Won't spend too long on this

00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:01.019
next team. The Tennessee Titans are a disaster.

00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:03.960
Cam Ward said it. He said, I'm going to be honest.

00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:08.980
We ASS right now. And he was not inaccurate.

00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:15.700
Brian Callahan and the Titans look like a joke.

00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:18.279
It would not shock me at all if Brian Callahan

00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:21.539
is one and done. They look like a disaster out

00:14:21.539 --> 00:14:25.360
there. No way he comes back, in my opinion, for

00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:27.519
year two. There's no way you ruin two years of

00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:29.000
Cam Ward's career. It reminds me of Jacksonville

00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:31.220
where Urban Meyer was a disaster. When they was

00:14:31.220 --> 00:14:32.519
like, yeah, let's get a new coach in here and

00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:34.860
basically restart the clock. It's pretty much

00:14:34.860 --> 00:14:36.000
what they're going to do with Cam Ward. Brian

00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:38.159
Callahan's a disaster. Let's get a new coach

00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:40.100
in here. Let's get a Cliff Kingsbury. Let's get

00:14:40.100 --> 00:14:43.039
a new coach in here. Excuse me. And reset the

00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:47.480
clock. Speaking of a reset, the Buffalo Bills

00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:50.799
do not look great right now. They've had two.

00:14:51.370 --> 00:14:54.350
If he wins, the latest over New Orleans. I mean,

00:14:54.429 --> 00:14:57.889
the call was a good call, but you are a couple

00:14:57.889 --> 00:15:01.029
of inches away from New Orleans taking the lead

00:15:01.029 --> 00:15:05.629
on you in Buffalo in the fourth quarter. The

00:15:05.629 --> 00:15:07.750
Buffalo Bills have not been impressive lately.

00:15:08.169 --> 00:15:09.830
And this is a league of what have you done for

00:15:09.830 --> 00:15:11.990
me lately, right? And the Buffalo Bills, I mean,

00:15:11.990 --> 00:15:14.190
the New Orleans Saints are awful. They're really

00:15:14.190 --> 00:15:17.549
bad. It would shock me. It would shock me if

00:15:17.549 --> 00:15:20.610
New Orleans wins three games. They are awful.

00:15:21.949 --> 00:15:25.669
and they are a couple of inches away and a review

00:15:25.669 --> 00:15:28.350
call away from taking the lead in Orchard Park.

00:15:29.149 --> 00:15:31.610
So that is definitely potentially a concern there.

00:15:32.049 --> 00:15:35.289
Josh Allen is Josh Allen. I just don't know what

00:15:35.289 --> 00:15:38.210
he has around him on both sides of the balls,

00:15:38.269 --> 00:15:41.809
defensively as a unit or offensively as a skill,

00:15:41.950 --> 00:15:44.370
what he has around him in order to be successful.

00:15:44.370 --> 00:15:46.389
I think he has the right coaches in place. I

00:15:46.389 --> 00:15:49.210
just don't know if the roster is there to be

00:15:49.210 --> 00:15:54.480
successful. The Packers. Packers and the Cowboys

00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:59.679
tied at 40. It was a score agami, as it's called.

00:15:59.740 --> 00:16:01.500
It's a unique score. There's never been a tie

00:16:01.500 --> 00:16:04.840
at 40. They tied at 40. The Packers, at the end

00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:07.879
of that game, played very not to lose, which

00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:10.059
I thought was interesting until Jordan Love almost

00:16:10.059 --> 00:16:13.539
screwed it up. I mean, my goodness. But the Packers,

00:16:13.580 --> 00:16:16.860
knowing that a touchdown wins the game, kind

00:16:16.860 --> 00:16:19.950
of played not to lose. They played. kind of a

00:16:19.950 --> 00:16:23.129
offensive strategy that was kind of like okay

00:16:23.129 --> 00:16:27.350
well if we get seven great but if we get three

00:16:27.350 --> 00:16:29.250
Brandon Aubrey's not getting back on the field

00:16:29.250 --> 00:16:33.789
I mean like Brandon Aubrey's that good that people

00:16:33.789 --> 00:16:37.970
are effectively punting attempting to score a

00:16:37.970 --> 00:16:40.769
touchdown in overtime off the off chance that

00:16:40.769 --> 00:16:43.750
you go fast and you got a good field goal and

00:16:43.750 --> 00:16:46.149
with a minute left they can get Brandon Aubrey

00:16:46.149 --> 00:16:48.750
in the range I mean like that is where we are

00:16:49.259 --> 00:16:53.440
We're the Brandon Auburn. But they ended up tying

00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:57.899
40 -40. A tie, man, it doesn't do anybody any

00:16:57.899 --> 00:17:00.639
good. Neither side is celebrating, which kind

00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:02.679
of, you know, quickly brought on the thing of,

00:17:02.740 --> 00:17:05.619
oh, well, they should, you know, make them play

00:17:05.619 --> 00:17:09.079
until they drop and no time on overtime and all

00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:12.220
this other stuff. Me personally, I'm a big proponent

00:17:12.220 --> 00:17:13.880
of either sudden death and overtime. First score

00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:16.880
wins. Doesn't matter what it is. Or no overtime

00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:20.079
at all in the regular season. You play 60 minutes,

00:17:20.299 --> 00:17:25.380
you're tied. There's no overtime. Like, it's

00:17:25.380 --> 00:17:27.440
the regular season. It is what it is. There's

00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:30.099
no overtime. Playoffs, play till you drop. But

00:17:30.099 --> 00:17:33.400
in the regular season, either do sudden death

00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:38.839
or have it where there's no, there's not a singular

00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:41.180
overtime in regulation. And then you institute

00:17:41.180 --> 00:17:46.160
overtime in the playoffs. Because, I mean, ending

00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:50.460
in ties is ridiculous. All right, the Philadelphia

00:17:50.460 --> 00:17:53.819
Eagles. The Philadelphia Eagles look broken.

00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:57.900
Jalen Hurts, I mean, there's been two uniquely

00:17:57.900 --> 00:18:03.119
awful halves of quarterback in the last X amount

00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:05.940
of years, right? I mean, you think, I'm not sure

00:18:05.940 --> 00:18:10.039
how far away this is, but like when Nathan Peterman

00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:12.700
threw five picks and a half, that was a uniquely

00:18:12.700 --> 00:18:16.220
awful half. But Jalen Hurts has had two of those

00:18:16.220 --> 00:18:20.500
now in four games. He had a uniquely awful second

00:18:20.500 --> 00:18:24.779
half this Sunday when he went zero for eight

00:18:24.779 --> 00:18:30.380
for zero yards in the second half. I mean, that's

00:18:30.380 --> 00:18:33.799
following two weeks ago, having a uniquely awful

00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:38.059
first half in the sense of, again, very similar.

00:18:38.099 --> 00:18:39.960
I think they had negative passing yards in the

00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:43.779
first half, right? And so frustrating is not

00:18:43.779 --> 00:18:47.849
even the word. You know, A .J. Brown starting

00:18:47.849 --> 00:18:50.430
to show some frustration. Stuff starting to leak

00:18:50.430 --> 00:18:53.630
out of the building. Not necessarily a good situation.

00:18:53.670 --> 00:18:57.650
I think that the Eagles are going to be fine.

00:18:57.910 --> 00:19:00.009
They keep finding ways to win. They are 4 -0.

00:19:00.170 --> 00:19:02.930
But there also seems to be a new hole or a new

00:19:02.930 --> 00:19:07.190
problem that pops up every week as well. And

00:19:07.190 --> 00:19:10.690
lastly, but certainly not least, I want to just

00:19:10.690 --> 00:19:14.009
say prayers up to Tyreek Hill. With the dislocated

00:19:14.009 --> 00:19:16.289
knee, several ligaments torn. I mean, we're talking

00:19:16.289 --> 00:19:20.109
potentially multiple surgeries in order to repair

00:19:20.109 --> 00:19:24.750
his leg. If he is done, which I don't believe

00:19:24.750 --> 00:19:27.089
he is, but if he is done, he is a first ballot

00:19:27.089 --> 00:19:29.269
NFL Hall of Famer. You can say what you want

00:19:29.269 --> 00:19:31.950
about his politics. You can say what you want

00:19:31.950 --> 00:19:34.769
about his actions off the field. He's played

00:19:34.769 --> 00:19:37.690
nine seasons. He's been a Pro Bowler, eight of

00:19:37.690 --> 00:19:40.869
them, and first team All -Pro, five of them.

00:19:41.369 --> 00:19:45.809
He has one of the greatest resumes of a receiver

00:19:45.809 --> 00:19:49.869
ever. And I will argue that he was the engine

00:19:49.869 --> 00:19:53.049
that made it go so effortlessly. Well, between

00:19:53.049 --> 00:19:56.470
him and Eric Bien -Aimé. But, you know, that

00:19:56.470 --> 00:20:03.549
is my two cents on Tyreek Hill is that he's a

00:20:03.549 --> 00:20:06.130
first ballot Hall of Famer. He is going to get

00:20:06.130 --> 00:20:08.069
a gold jacket. It's a matter of how long they

00:20:08.069 --> 00:20:09.890
make him wait due to his stuff off the field.

00:20:10.380 --> 00:20:14.259
so on and so forth but you know prayers up tyree

00:20:14.259 --> 00:20:20.740
hill for a speedy recovery but up next we're

00:20:20.740 --> 00:20:46.630
going to talk about nfl week five Welcome back

00:20:46.630 --> 00:20:52.450
into the show. Now we're going to get into NFL

00:20:52.450 --> 00:20:55.309
Week 5. Like I said, the Rams and the Niners,

00:20:55.309 --> 00:20:58.490
Thursday Night Football, have kicked. I got the

00:20:58.490 --> 00:21:02.569
Rams here. The Niners are a little beat up. You

00:21:02.569 --> 00:21:04.730
know, Mack Jones typically is playing well under

00:21:04.730 --> 00:21:08.230
Shanahan. Ironically, we're kind of getting what

00:21:08.230 --> 00:21:11.269
we should have probably had four years ago. Because

00:21:11.269 --> 00:21:14.740
remember, he leaked out before the draft. That

00:21:14.740 --> 00:21:17.140
the Niners were going to draft Mac Jones. Media

00:21:17.140 --> 00:21:20.980
went ballistic. I think they panic drafted Trey

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:24.000
Lance. End up in the same draft. Drafting Brock

00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:26.539
Purdy as Mr. Irrelevant. Brock Purdy ends up

00:21:26.539 --> 00:21:28.480
becoming the big contract guy. And Trey Lance

00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:31.420
is now on his third or fourth team. So they end

00:21:31.420 --> 00:21:33.440
up kind of being saved by their mistake. It's

00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:35.380
one of those things where you flip the picks.

00:21:35.599 --> 00:21:38.319
If Brock Purdy was third and Trey Lance was Mr.

00:21:38.380 --> 00:21:42.900
Irrelevant. It's perfectly fine, right? But this

00:21:42.900 --> 00:21:44.690
is Mac Jones on his third team. You know, Mac

00:21:44.690 --> 00:21:47.470
Jones was a Patriot, obviously. He was in Jacksonville.

00:21:47.509 --> 00:21:49.529
Now he's in San Fran. But he typically looks

00:21:49.529 --> 00:21:53.029
good with the Niners. You know, he fits the Shanahan

00:21:53.029 --> 00:21:56.069
system well. He's a low, he's a low, he's a high

00:21:56.069 --> 00:21:59.549
ceiling, low, high floor, low ceiling guy. Meaning

00:21:59.549 --> 00:22:02.230
that he's not going to be ever bad. Right? He's

00:22:02.230 --> 00:22:04.769
like, he's just, he's just set up that way. He's

00:22:04.769 --> 00:22:07.150
just a natural guy. But he's going to have high

00:22:07.150 --> 00:22:10.509
floor. Like he's going to be consistently slightly

00:22:10.509 --> 00:22:13.160
above average. But he's never going to be an

00:22:13.160 --> 00:22:14.940
MVP -level player. He's never going to be an

00:22:14.940 --> 00:22:16.940
all -pro -level player. He might even get a Pro

00:22:16.940 --> 00:22:18.420
Bowler, too. I think he got a Pro Bowler in New

00:22:18.420 --> 00:22:21.680
England. He might get a Pro Bowler, too. He's

00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:23.740
going to be slightly above average at his peak.

00:22:25.019 --> 00:22:27.759
And, you know, that can win you. I mean, Kyle

00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:29.680
Shanahan went to the Super Bowl with Jimmy Garoppolo

00:22:29.680 --> 00:22:32.279
and Brock Purdy, being slightly above average.

00:22:32.900 --> 00:22:34.940
Both, you know, surround him with a great team.

00:22:35.059 --> 00:22:36.859
Those guys be slightly above average, you can

00:22:36.859 --> 00:22:40.470
make a Super Bowl. I think the Rams right now

00:22:40.470 --> 00:22:43.690
are a little bit too healthy. Puka Nakua is wide

00:22:43.690 --> 00:22:47.069
receiver one. He's balling. Matt Stafford had

00:22:47.069 --> 00:22:49.150
a great game on Sunday. Maybe a short turnaround

00:22:49.150 --> 00:22:51.470
for him physically, but he had a great game on

00:22:51.470 --> 00:22:54.950
Sunday. Sean McVay doesn't like losing to Kyle

00:22:54.950 --> 00:22:57.650
Shanahan. His peers, man, like it's Shanahan,

00:22:57.890 --> 00:23:01.930
it's Kingsbury, McDaniel. Like Sean McVay does

00:23:01.930 --> 00:23:06.230
not like losing to those guys. And so I think

00:23:06.230 --> 00:23:07.910
that the Rams are going to come out, and they're

00:23:07.910 --> 00:23:11.349
going to put together a show that ultimately

00:23:11.349 --> 00:23:17.589
I think they'll win the game. But, again, I don't

00:23:17.589 --> 00:23:19.529
want to get too far into it because, again, it's

00:23:19.529 --> 00:23:22.150
happening right now. But I do think the Rams

00:23:22.150 --> 00:23:25.170
will win. Well, let's get into some headlines,

00:23:25.269 --> 00:23:27.349
get into some conversation. So let's do Vikings

00:23:27.349 --> 00:23:31.130
at Browns. That is our European game, our early

00:23:31.130 --> 00:23:33.789
kickoff. It's 8 .30 for me, 9 .30 for the East

00:23:33.789 --> 00:23:36.990
Coast. 6 .30 for the West Coast. I remember when

00:23:36.990 --> 00:23:41.869
I was in Vegas a few years ago. A few years ago,

00:23:41.990 --> 00:23:45.509
you know, I was in Vegas during football season.

00:23:45.769 --> 00:23:47.769
They actually were building. They were finishing

00:23:47.769 --> 00:23:49.269
Allegiant Stadium at the time. They were building

00:23:49.269 --> 00:23:51.910
Allegiant Stadium at the time I was there. And

00:23:51.910 --> 00:23:57.609
I woke up after a concert. I woke up and football

00:23:57.609 --> 00:24:01.230
was on. And I was so confused. Like, it was like

00:24:01.230 --> 00:24:03.150
the fourth quarter. And I was like, what in the

00:24:03.150 --> 00:24:07.900
world? It's like 9 .30. Like, how is football

00:24:07.900 --> 00:24:12.500
in the fourth quarter? It's like 9 .30. Oh, it's

00:24:12.500 --> 00:24:14.740
like 10. Like, how is football in the fourth

00:24:14.740 --> 00:24:17.640
quarter? I forgot. Time zone. Like, time zones

00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:21.099
are skinny. So, if it's 8 .30 here, it's 6 .30.

00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:22.940
No, it was like 9 o 'clock. If it's 8 .30 here,

00:24:23.059 --> 00:24:26.220
it's like 6 .30 in Vegas. What's the time zone

00:24:26.220 --> 00:24:28.450
that we kicked off? So I woke up at like 9 o

00:24:28.450 --> 00:24:30.250
'clock, you know, rubbing my eyes, turning the

00:24:30.250 --> 00:24:32.210
TV on kind of thing, and I saw football in the

00:24:32.210 --> 00:24:34.970
fourth quarter, and I was incredibly lost. But

00:24:34.970 --> 00:24:38.809
again, for me, that would be 11. For them, that

00:24:38.809 --> 00:24:43.970
was 9. And so, you know, so you get that early

00:24:43.970 --> 00:24:45.710
kickoff of the European game, but it's Vikings

00:24:45.710 --> 00:24:50.930
at Browns. Backup city here. Joe Flacco's officially

00:24:50.930 --> 00:24:54.190
been benched for the Cleveland Browns. He probably

00:24:54.190 --> 00:24:57.299
has started his last game in the NFL. He's been

00:24:57.299 --> 00:25:00.200
benched for the Cleveland Browns in favor of

00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:02.819
Dylan Gabriel. As you guys know, J .J. McCarthy

00:25:02.819 --> 00:25:07.480
is injured for the Vikings, meaning Carson Wentz

00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:09.859
gets another week to start. Maybe he gets a chance

00:25:09.859 --> 00:25:11.740
to prove that he should be a starter somewhere

00:25:11.740 --> 00:25:15.980
next season. Great, good first game. Not so great

00:25:15.980 --> 00:25:18.220
three quarters of game two. He had a great fourth.

00:25:19.299 --> 00:25:21.619
So he's probably eight quarters he started. I

00:25:21.619 --> 00:25:24.680
give him five good to great ones, three awful

00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:29.259
ones. you know not necessarily instilling a lot

00:25:29.259 --> 00:25:31.339
of confidence in getting in him getting a starting

00:25:31.339 --> 00:25:33.839
position next year uh because five by eight six

00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:36.700
two and a half percent and that's an f in most

00:25:36.700 --> 00:25:40.279
grading systems so um he got it definitely improved

00:25:40.279 --> 00:25:45.680
there but um the story that i mean i'm not gonna

00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:48.240
spend too much time on it it's it's media worthy

00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:52.740
it's not worthy so i will address it but but

00:25:52.740 --> 00:25:57.039
um They questioned Shador Sanders a lot about

00:25:57.039 --> 00:26:00.200
Dylan Gabriel starting and what does he think

00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:02.200
he has to do to become the starter and so on

00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:05.480
and so forth. And he pantomimed. For those of

00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:08.019
you who don't know what that is, he answered

00:26:08.019 --> 00:26:10.500
without making any sounds. I'm not even sure

00:26:10.500 --> 00:26:13.119
he said actual words. I think he just moved his

00:26:13.119 --> 00:26:22.660
lips. But he pantomimed the answers. He didn't

00:26:22.660 --> 00:26:26.890
give any answers. He didn't. Okay, I gave a prediction

00:26:26.890 --> 00:26:29.250
of Rams. I'm going to go back to it. I gave a

00:26:29.250 --> 00:26:31.170
prediction of Rams, and the Niners, behind two

00:26:31.170 --> 00:26:33.890
Mac Jones touchdowns, are up 14 -0. Who would

00:26:33.890 --> 00:26:38.910
have thunk it? But back to Sudo saying this.

00:26:38.970 --> 00:26:40.589
So he panned to mind the answers. He didn't answer

00:26:40.589 --> 00:26:43.849
them. And mixed reaction on Twitter. Mixed reaction

00:26:43.849 --> 00:26:46.710
in the media. Some of the media, social and national

00:26:46.710 --> 00:26:48.730
and sports, have said that's why. That's why

00:26:48.730 --> 00:26:50.910
nobody drafted him right there. Answers like

00:26:50.910 --> 00:26:54.450
that, acts like that. Other people have said,

00:26:54.549 --> 00:26:56.150
why are we even talking about this? He's the

00:26:56.150 --> 00:26:58.769
third string quarterback before. He's the third

00:26:58.769 --> 00:27:03.029
string quarterback after. Other people are saying,

00:27:03.390 --> 00:27:06.250
you know, why are they still asking him these

00:27:06.250 --> 00:27:09.309
questions? Because he's decided to not answer

00:27:09.309 --> 00:27:13.650
them by not answering them. He literally, like

00:27:13.650 --> 00:27:16.910
I said, pantomimed the answer. He's answering

00:27:16.910 --> 00:27:19.410
them without answering them at this point. And

00:27:19.410 --> 00:27:27.359
so. Who knows, right? In terms of, you know,

00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:28.980
why I should do what they already did. I mean,

00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:30.400
I'm sure he's tired of answering the questions.

00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:33.680
But anyway, back three are going to be on the

00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:36.299
field. So Carson Wentz had a rough game. Well,

00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:38.019
rough three quarters. He's looking to bounce

00:27:38.019 --> 00:27:39.779
back against a pretty good Cleveland defense.

00:27:41.220 --> 00:27:44.220
As bad as Cleveland is, he's looking to bounce

00:27:44.220 --> 00:27:45.680
back against a pretty good Cleveland defense.

00:27:46.000 --> 00:27:48.799
Speaking of good defenses, Vikings defense coordinated

00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:51.829
by Brian Flores. They do. Two to three to four

00:27:51.829 --> 00:27:56.029
looks that are otherworldly on defense. A game.

00:27:58.869 --> 00:28:06.569
Like, a game. They do two to three a game that

00:28:06.569 --> 00:28:12.170
are just, I mean, it's shift, shift. I mean,

00:28:12.210 --> 00:28:15.150
it's start off in a zero look, flash to a two

00:28:15.150 --> 00:28:16.750
high look, end up in a couple three look light.

00:28:17.400 --> 00:28:20.039
It's just they give you so many different looks

00:28:20.039 --> 00:28:24.740
at every single stage that Dylan Gabriel is going

00:28:24.740 --> 00:28:28.799
to struggle against his defense. Here is the

00:28:28.799 --> 00:28:34.559
issue I think Cleveland will have. Benching Joe

00:28:34.559 --> 00:28:37.680
Flacco opened the door. As long as Joe Flacco

00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:39.619
was playing, you could say neither rookie was

00:28:39.619 --> 00:28:42.180
ready, right? Or Joe was good enough to keep

00:28:42.180 --> 00:28:47.759
the starting job. Not many would argue. However,

00:28:47.759 --> 00:28:50.000
now that the rookie is starting and Joe Flacco

00:28:50.000 --> 00:28:54.759
is benched, you've opened the door to quarterback

00:28:54.759 --> 00:28:59.539
change. So if Dylan Gabriel goes out there and

00:28:59.539 --> 00:29:02.799
he plays horrible, which again is the Vikings

00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:05.200
defense, it's on the table. He has two picks,

00:29:05.420 --> 00:29:11.319
58 % completion percentage, a buck 90, one touchdown,

00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:15.299
two picks, and looks rough. It's on the table.

00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:20.940
Fans may say, okay, well, let's give the other

00:29:20.940 --> 00:29:24.480
guy a shot. Again, I'm not saying good dealing

00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:27.259
game is going to look bad. I'm saying it's on

00:29:27.259 --> 00:29:34.859
the table. Vice versa. Carson Wentz played a

00:29:34.859 --> 00:29:38.220
good game. He had a hell of a quarter, quarter

00:29:38.220 --> 00:29:41.279
and a half. If he goes out against a well -known,

00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:48.660
good Cleveland defense, 20 or 27. 254, two touchdowns,

00:29:48.660 --> 00:29:54.839
no picks. How quickly are you running back to

00:29:54.839 --> 00:29:59.480
J .J. McCarthy? Who, again, he played a couple

00:29:59.480 --> 00:30:03.940
of games, but most of his games, the opposite

00:30:03.940 --> 00:30:07.359
of Wentz, Wentz was five good, three bad. J .J.

00:30:07.380 --> 00:30:11.619
was like six bad, two good before he was ultimately

00:30:11.619 --> 00:30:15.000
injured. So I think there's going to be a lot

00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:17.420
of decisions made in the offseason, specifically

00:30:17.420 --> 00:30:21.099
regarding Carson Wentz and the Minnesota Vikings.

00:30:21.140 --> 00:30:26.920
But this is kind of the tale of the tape on both

00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:30.519
sides. Quarterbacks are huge. Two good defenses

00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:33.440
with huge quarterback potential controversies.

00:30:34.900 --> 00:30:37.440
Wentz plays well. How do you go in the locker

00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:41.559
room and tell them to go back to McCarthy? Gabriel

00:30:41.559 --> 00:30:44.339
plays bad. How can you use those at a fan base

00:30:44.339 --> 00:30:48.400
to do what's not better? So it's a very interesting

00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:54.480
situation on both sides. The Texans get an opportunity

00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:57.299
here to play the Ravens. Now, normally that is

00:30:57.299 --> 00:30:59.579
not a sentence anybody would ever say. Getting

00:30:59.579 --> 00:31:02.180
the chance to play the Ravens is usually a horrible

00:31:02.180 --> 00:31:07.119
idea. However, no Lamar Jackson this week. Particularly

00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:10.259
no Kyle Hamilton. I mean, there's anywhere from

00:31:10.259 --> 00:31:13.680
10 to 14 Ravens on the injury report, mostly

00:31:13.680 --> 00:31:18.099
with lower legs, soft tissue stuff. And it is

00:31:18.099 --> 00:31:24.460
just, it is absolutely devastating for Baltimore

00:31:24.460 --> 00:31:30.460
because you got to think about it. Joe Burrow's

00:31:30.460 --> 00:31:36.059
out, right? So there's an opportunity here to

00:31:36.059 --> 00:31:40.900
really, really, Win the division. Lock it down.

00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:45.759
Cleveland's awful. Pittsburgh has Aaron Rodgers,

00:31:45.819 --> 00:31:49.079
but they're up and down. Baltimore had an opportunity

00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:50.880
here to really get away and high with this division,

00:31:51.039 --> 00:31:53.960
and they didn't. Like I said, now there's a bunch

00:31:53.960 --> 00:31:57.299
of soft tissue injuries running around, which

00:31:57.299 --> 00:32:00.079
leads to the Houston Texans, who need momentum,

00:32:00.339 --> 00:32:02.880
who need kind of a pick -me -up game, kind of

00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:05.359
a help -me -help -you game, and they get the

00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:07.839
Ravens. So, you know, Baltimore's off for that

00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:10.769
defense. I mean, they're opportunistic at defense.

00:32:10.950 --> 00:32:12.890
They can get a stop when they're pushed, so on

00:32:12.890 --> 00:32:15.430
and so forth. But they're not very good at defense.

00:32:16.529 --> 00:32:18.390
They're not apparently very good at handing the

00:32:18.390 --> 00:32:21.130
ball to Derrick Henry because they are the worst

00:32:21.130 --> 00:32:22.890
team in the NFL when it comes down to handing

00:32:22.890 --> 00:32:25.730
the ball to their running backs on first and

00:32:25.730 --> 00:32:27.910
second down. So they're very limited at receiver.

00:32:31.869 --> 00:32:36.750
I mean, it's just bad right now, right? So Houston.

00:32:37.180 --> 00:32:39.000
Gets an opportunity to play Baltimore, who's

00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:42.059
beat up, not ready to go, more than likely. I

00:32:42.059 --> 00:32:44.279
said no Lamar Jackson, more than likely. They're

00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:46.079
going to be in trouble from the opening outset.

00:32:48.539 --> 00:32:52.000
Speaking of Minnesota Vikings quarterbacks, Sam

00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:57.319
Donald plays Baker Mayfield. The Seattle Seahawks

00:32:57.319 --> 00:32:59.559
line up against Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Both teams

00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:02.920
are 3 -1. These two quarterbacks are kind of

00:33:02.920 --> 00:33:05.440
the opposite of each other. Their stories are

00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:08.279
almost polar opposites, actually. You have Sam

00:33:08.279 --> 00:33:11.079
Darnold, who grew up with a little money. I mean,

00:33:11.160 --> 00:33:13.599
Baker had a little money, too. But Sam Darnold

00:33:13.599 --> 00:33:15.599
grew up with a little money. He was a highly

00:33:15.599 --> 00:33:18.019
ranked high school quarterback. He ended up winning

00:33:18.019 --> 00:33:21.140
the USC. He ended up starting. He was third round.

00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:25.700
He was third overall pick. You know, that's his

00:33:25.700 --> 00:33:29.140
upbringing. Baker Mayfield, again, similar, had

00:33:29.140 --> 00:33:31.539
a little money. But he's a two -time walk -on.

00:33:32.619 --> 00:33:35.299
He doesn't have a Heisman Trophy. Yes, he does.

00:33:35.339 --> 00:33:37.119
He has a Heisman Trophy. He's a two -time walk

00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:38.980
-on. He had to battle for everything he ever

00:33:38.980 --> 00:33:42.440
got at the college level. So having to figure

00:33:42.440 --> 00:33:45.359
out stuff through controversy and battling isn't

00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:49.079
or was not or still isn't atypical to Baker Mayfield.

00:33:49.160 --> 00:33:53.059
He's always had that cocky, moxie, that grit

00:33:53.059 --> 00:33:55.859
and determination, that drive to be great. Well,

00:33:55.900 --> 00:33:58.660
in the NFL, their lives have kind of been similar.

00:33:59.339 --> 00:34:02.460
Both were, I mean, I think Baker went. Baker

00:34:02.460 --> 00:34:06.559
was first round. Donald was top three. Didn't

00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:07.960
work out in their original locations for whatever

00:34:07.960 --> 00:34:11.260
reason. They go to their second locations and

00:34:11.260 --> 00:34:13.719
they show flashes. And now they've got their

00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:16.820
own franchises. And, you know, Sam Donald is

00:34:16.820 --> 00:34:19.579
the unquestioned QB of the next, I mean, at least

00:34:19.579 --> 00:34:21.300
three to four years of our opinion in Seattle.

00:34:21.820 --> 00:34:24.619
Baker Mayfield is Tampa's second favorite son

00:34:24.619 --> 00:34:29.829
behind Tom Brady at quarterback. But, I mean,

00:34:29.889 --> 00:34:34.329
to have those careers go the way that they went

00:34:34.329 --> 00:34:38.329
and collegiate careers and then the NFL to have

00:34:38.329 --> 00:34:40.550
very similar stories, it's kind of cool. Now

00:34:40.550 --> 00:34:45.989
they're playing each other this week. Jaden Daniels

00:34:45.989 --> 00:34:49.650
set to return against the Chargers. Now Terry

00:34:49.650 --> 00:34:52.090
McLaurin is not, but Jaden Daniels is set to

00:34:52.090 --> 00:34:54.090
return against the Los Angeles Chargers. So a

00:34:54.090 --> 00:34:56.449
huge boost for the commander's offense there.

00:34:56.920 --> 00:35:00.639
and my fantasy team having Jane Daniels return

00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:03.840
to the lineup. And then the primetime preview,

00:35:04.280 --> 00:35:08.260
the My Patriots play at the Bills on Sunday Night

00:35:08.260 --> 00:35:10.840
Football. Very interesting game for the Patriots.

00:35:10.860 --> 00:35:12.719
I spoke about it earlier. The Bills have not

00:35:12.719 --> 00:35:15.480
been playing that well. The Patriots put up 43

00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:18.480
against the Carolina Panthers, saying Carolina

00:35:18.480 --> 00:35:21.079
Panthers that it just pitched a shutout three

00:35:21.079 --> 00:35:26.079
before 30 -0. So, a big, big opportunity for

00:35:26.079 --> 00:35:29.320
New England here, especially with the Buffalo

00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:31.079
Bills. I don't know if they're trying to figure

00:35:31.079 --> 00:35:32.519
their scheme out. I don't know what's going on.

00:35:32.619 --> 00:35:34.880
But especially with the Bills struggling a little

00:35:34.880 --> 00:35:36.900
bit here, this is an opportunity to put on a

00:35:36.900 --> 00:35:39.099
show if you're in New England. Plus, it's before

00:35:39.099 --> 00:35:42.639
the blizzard hits. And then Monday Night Football,

00:35:43.059 --> 00:35:47.039
Chiefs at Jags, you know, Presto's Promise versus

00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:49.739
the Night Kings. I feel like if you're in the

00:35:49.739 --> 00:35:54.739
Game of Thrones. Nick Wright has called Trevor

00:35:54.739 --> 00:35:57.320
Lawrence the prince that was promised, a .k .a.

00:35:57.320 --> 00:36:00.260
the prince. And he's playing the Night King with

00:36:00.260 --> 00:36:02.300
all the power in his hand and Patrick Mahomes.

00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:07.420
And so, very interesting football game here.

00:36:07.780 --> 00:36:10.639
A little humid. That could play into the fact

00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:13.840
that it's not a frying pan, but it is a little

00:36:13.840 --> 00:36:18.139
humid in the south right now. And he's not really

00:36:18.139 --> 00:36:20.159
breaking a whole heck of a lot. He broke a little

00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:21.739
bit, but not a whole heck of a lot. It's a lot

00:36:21.739 --> 00:36:25.510
more humid. than, you know, Kansas City would

00:36:25.510 --> 00:36:30.989
be used to feeling. But up next, we are going

00:36:30.989 --> 00:36:34.210
to leave the NFL. I'm excited for this week five.

00:36:34.230 --> 00:36:35.650
Like I said, starting with tonight, getting the

00:36:35.650 --> 00:36:39.550
9 -0, 14 -0, whatever. Killed my prediction before

00:36:39.550 --> 00:36:42.449
you guys even hear it. But up next, we're going

00:36:42.449 --> 00:36:44.949
to jump into the WNBA. There's a lot that's going

00:36:44.949 --> 00:36:48.449
down with the W from literally the top down.

00:37:10.340 --> 00:37:16.719
Welcome back into the show where the only thing

00:37:16.719 --> 00:37:20.519
hotter than this microphone is the microphone

00:37:20.519 --> 00:37:24.320
that Nafisa Collier used to go at Kathy Engelbert

00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:28.599
of the WMGA. If you have not seen the clip, it's

00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:31.179
4 minutes and 12 seconds long. I know because

00:37:31.179 --> 00:37:34.360
I posted it. It's all over JTS, social medias,

00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:42.780
Threads, X, Instagram, and Facebook. Wow. I mean,

00:37:42.800 --> 00:37:46.579
oftentimes you see barbs when there's a labor

00:37:46.579 --> 00:37:50.079
negotiation, right? Anytime there's union versus

00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:54.019
management, there's a labor negotiation, negotiating

00:37:54.019 --> 00:37:57.179
for a collective bargaining agreement, oftentimes

00:37:57.179 --> 00:38:01.400
there are barbs. CBA negotiations are common

00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:03.579
in the NFL. Their deals feel shorter. I feel

00:38:03.579 --> 00:38:05.639
like they're really negotiating a CBA every three

00:38:05.639 --> 00:38:09.980
years. Usually it comes down to a financial split

00:38:09.980 --> 00:38:12.940
between money and players. And what's the practice

00:38:12.940 --> 00:38:15.460
schedule like? So how much organized team activities

00:38:15.460 --> 00:38:17.760
do you have to do? You have a guy like Shannon

00:38:17.760 --> 00:38:19.159
Sharpe that get mad at the players every time

00:38:19.159 --> 00:38:21.780
because he says like, guys, you know this is

00:38:21.780 --> 00:38:24.780
coming. You don't save and you give you give

00:38:24.780 --> 00:38:26.920
in to dumb stuff like you give up a half percent

00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:30.800
of money. So you get the weed high, the weed

00:38:30.800 --> 00:38:33.719
levels higher. And it's like, dude, you know

00:38:33.719 --> 00:38:35.909
what I'm saying? Like you give up leverage. for

00:38:35.909 --> 00:38:38.630
dumb stuff or less padded practices or you know

00:38:38.630 --> 00:38:41.949
something where you know instead you give you

00:38:41.949 --> 00:38:44.070
give up money for that like you guys are low

00:38:44.070 --> 00:38:45.670
on money you give up money for something that

00:38:45.670 --> 00:38:50.110
matter like getting less padded practice um and

00:38:50.110 --> 00:38:54.889
then the nba the nba feels standard -ish As far

00:38:54.889 --> 00:38:56.989
as labor negotiations, they don't really have

00:38:56.989 --> 00:38:59.789
any. I mean, they had the lockout of 2011, but

00:38:59.789 --> 00:39:02.389
that was the last time there was a real labor

00:39:02.389 --> 00:39:04.710
standoff. It was a couple times in the NFL. It

00:39:04.710 --> 00:39:08.030
was in the 11th hour that they figured out a

00:39:08.030 --> 00:39:11.429
deal. Hadn't been a lockout in a long time in

00:39:11.429 --> 00:39:16.130
the NFL, but I remember the lockout of 2011.

00:39:16.289 --> 00:39:19.769
That's the epic game. I mean, they were Kevin

00:39:19.769 --> 00:39:22.860
Durant and Rucker Park. LeBron and the crew,

00:39:22.940 --> 00:39:25.639
Miami. South Bend pro -ams. I mean, that's when

00:39:25.639 --> 00:39:27.920
NBA players are popping up to random pro -ams.

00:39:27.980 --> 00:39:30.559
Kobe went to the Drew League. I mean, that's

00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:32.079
when NBA players are popping up to random pro

00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:34.099
-ams. It's just to play competitive basketball.

00:39:36.059 --> 00:39:38.739
And people forget, like, it's not the NBA. No,

00:39:38.880 --> 00:39:42.440
but the first word pro -am is pro. So, like,

00:39:42.460 --> 00:39:45.820
European players, guys who play in, like, Canada,

00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:49.239
EuroLeague and stuff, well, their season hadn't

00:39:49.239 --> 00:39:52.840
started yet. By the time the NBA season starts.

00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:55.300
And the EuroLeague kind of does it on purpose

00:39:55.300 --> 00:39:57.900
to kind of give those guys who are cut last minute

00:39:57.900 --> 00:39:59.820
by the NBA a chance to go over to Europe and

00:39:59.820 --> 00:40:03.500
play good basketball. You can't play them both

00:40:03.500 --> 00:40:05.719
at the same time. But it kind of gives you out

00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:08.219
where those guys are still over in America getting

00:40:08.219 --> 00:40:10.900
work in before they fly over to Europe. So a

00:40:10.900 --> 00:40:14.860
lot of those Rutgers and he's going to come to

00:40:14.860 --> 00:40:17.519
Amazon. Rutgers and Drew and things like that.

00:40:17.599 --> 00:40:19.519
Like, there are European players, there are ex

00:40:19.519 --> 00:40:21.980
-Euro players, there's guys that still play like

00:40:21.980 --> 00:40:25.840
TBT and stuff like that on the floor. So we're

00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:27.619
not talking about just your Joe Blow at the YMCA.

00:40:27.719 --> 00:40:30.119
We're talking about legitimate competition. And

00:40:30.119 --> 00:40:32.460
that happened in 2011. Well, anyway, the WNBA

00:40:32.460 --> 00:40:35.920
is getting into a labor negotiation and it's

00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:39.380
been coming down the pike for two years. I said

00:40:39.380 --> 00:40:43.760
it before, I say it again. Nafisa Carrier with

00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:46.199
a lot more details. pretty much echo what I've

00:40:46.199 --> 00:40:49.659
been saying for years on this show and, you know,

00:40:49.659 --> 00:40:54.739
loudly off the air. It ain't Kathy Engelbert.

00:40:55.800 --> 00:40:57.860
I don't know who the WNBA commissioner is supposed

00:40:57.860 --> 00:40:59.480
to be. I don't know if it's supposed to be Matt

00:40:59.480 --> 00:41:01.039
Johnson. I don't know if it's supposed to be

00:41:01.039 --> 00:41:03.019
Lisa Leslie. I don't know if it's supposed to

00:41:03.019 --> 00:41:05.019
be Maya Moore. I don't know if it's supposed

00:41:05.019 --> 00:41:10.880
to be, oh my God, oh, Robin Roberts. I don't

00:41:10.880 --> 00:41:12.940
know who it's supposed to be. I know it ain't

00:41:12.940 --> 00:41:15.840
Kathy Engelbert. It could be Mark Tatum, who's

00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:17.199
the deputy commissioner of the NBA. I mean, the

00:41:17.199 --> 00:41:19.199
WNBA and NBA are tied in together so much anyway.

00:41:19.619 --> 00:41:21.579
Let Mark Tatum get his feet wet as a commissioner

00:41:21.579 --> 00:41:23.760
before he becomes commissioner of the NBA. Let

00:41:23.760 --> 00:41:25.420
him go be the commissioner of the WNBA. I don't

00:41:25.420 --> 00:41:28.860
know. But I do know for a fact it ain't Kathy

00:41:28.860 --> 00:41:33.420
Engelbert. I said that I think her media deal

00:41:33.420 --> 00:41:36.840
should have been bigger. I think her media deal

00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:39.219
should have already happened. I think that she

00:41:39.219 --> 00:41:42.320
should have seen the wave of that high school

00:41:42.320 --> 00:41:45.119
class coming. You know, it ended up being that

00:41:45.119 --> 00:41:47.059
college, that collegiate, well, I say that high

00:41:47.059 --> 00:41:48.579
school class because Paige didn't come out with

00:41:48.579 --> 00:41:50.480
them, but you should have seen that wave coming.

00:41:50.679 --> 00:41:52.699
By the time they were juniors, they were bigger

00:41:52.699 --> 00:41:55.579
than everybody in the WNBA. And by they, I mean

00:41:55.579 --> 00:41:59.659
Cameron Brink, Angel Reese, Camila Cordoza, and

00:41:59.659 --> 00:42:03.619
Kaitlyn Clark. There is nobody in the W, you

00:42:03.619 --> 00:42:06.500
could put any four you want, that had their star

00:42:06.500 --> 00:42:10.820
power. You could put Asia Wilson with Kelsey

00:42:10.820 --> 00:42:16.489
Plum with... Nafisa Collier with Brianna Stewart

00:42:16.489 --> 00:42:19.289
as far as fan bases. And they would not have

00:42:19.289 --> 00:42:21.070
touched those four ladies. They really got close,

00:42:21.250 --> 00:42:23.989
right? So you had this tidal wave coming in.

00:42:26.230 --> 00:42:29.269
that you knew based on the NCAA women's ratings,

00:42:29.690 --> 00:42:32.130
based on tournament, based on merch, based on

00:42:32.130 --> 00:42:34.949
NRL deals, based on attention, based on segment,

00:42:35.090 --> 00:42:37.489
based on screen time, like just stuff you can

00:42:37.489 --> 00:42:39.469
see, not even the behind the scenes analytics

00:42:39.469 --> 00:42:41.769
stuff I'm sure she has access to, just stuff

00:42:41.769 --> 00:42:44.289
you can see, that group was going to be different.

00:42:44.369 --> 00:42:46.630
And Paige Becker's too. Paige gets hurt, she

00:42:46.630 --> 00:42:50.309
ends up behind them. But that group was going

00:42:50.309 --> 00:42:54.869
to be different. Right. That group was going

00:42:54.869 --> 00:43:00.349
to change the way women's basketball was discussed.

00:43:00.389 --> 00:43:02.989
And ultimately they do. That group is just different.

00:43:03.070 --> 00:43:05.530
Right. They're there. I mean, we're talking bigger

00:43:05.530 --> 00:43:07.909
than a three to see with Della Dawn, Brittany

00:43:07.909 --> 00:43:10.610
Grimes, Skylar Diggins. We're talking bigger

00:43:10.610 --> 00:43:13.150
than Candace Parker's arrival, even with her

00:43:13.150 --> 00:43:15.369
winning rookie of the MVP in the same season.

00:43:15.769 --> 00:43:17.650
We're talking bigger than Maya Moore's arrival.

00:43:17.650 --> 00:43:22.260
Like those ladies. were i mean the quintessential

00:43:22.260 --> 00:43:31.039
super mega stars that a league or a sport was

00:43:31.039 --> 00:43:35.760
ever gonna have right i mean we're talking magic

00:43:35.760 --> 00:43:38.739
and bird arriving in the nba to save the nba

00:43:38.739 --> 00:43:41.900
this class was going to save and nothing has

00:43:41.900 --> 00:43:45.360
saved the wmba's profitability so much so there's

00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:48.050
no investors there's expansion There's all kind

00:43:48.050 --> 00:43:50.269
of stuff happening in the NBA off the strength

00:43:50.269 --> 00:43:53.449
of those ladies. I said it before, I was like,

00:43:53.489 --> 00:43:55.510
Cathy's not taking advantage of this. There should

00:43:55.510 --> 00:43:58.150
be a new CBA. There should be a new pay structure.

00:43:58.889 --> 00:44:01.670
Like, retroactively do. I mean, we're talking,

00:44:01.750 --> 00:44:04.849
like, if there's a $2 billion TV deal coming

00:44:04.849 --> 00:44:08.489
down the pike, like, backdo the contracts. Like,

00:44:08.489 --> 00:44:11.309
don't let, you know, and I said, like, don't

00:44:11.309 --> 00:44:15.409
let, like, because of the structure. Angel Reese

00:44:15.409 --> 00:44:19.110
or Kaitlyn Clark come in making, you know, $178

00:44:19.110 --> 00:44:21.070
,000 and Asia Wilson making $150 ,000. Like,

00:44:21.070 --> 00:44:25.349
don't do that, right? But do it to where, okay,

00:44:25.489 --> 00:44:27.869
if the rookie scale is still 10 % of the new

00:44:27.869 --> 00:44:29.929
salary cap, well, Asia Wilson's coming for $20

00:44:29.929 --> 00:44:32.550
,000, so her contract from here on out is worth

00:44:32.550 --> 00:44:35.570
20 % or something like that, right? And the WNBA

00:44:35.570 --> 00:44:37.949
players and agents set it up to where they're

00:44:37.949 --> 00:44:39.650
going to take advantage of the new CBA deal.

00:44:39.789 --> 00:44:42.889
Why? 90 % of the league is free agents this year.

00:44:43.769 --> 00:44:47.590
done on purpose. They all negotiated to be free

00:44:47.590 --> 00:44:51.690
agents this offseason for the purpose of when

00:44:51.690 --> 00:44:55.369
the CBA hits, boom, when the new salary structure

00:44:55.369 --> 00:44:58.110
came out, they negotiated under that salary structure

00:44:58.110 --> 00:45:02.250
and not this salary structure. Very well done

00:45:02.250 --> 00:45:04.170
by the players and agents, especially the United

00:45:04.170 --> 00:45:06.369
Front. Now, there's a lot less of them. It's

00:45:06.369 --> 00:45:10.809
144, well, 156 now, and then it'll be up to 196

00:45:10.809 --> 00:45:14.820
in a couple years, but Very good job as players

00:45:14.820 --> 00:45:17.199
and agents to, you know, see that coming down

00:45:17.199 --> 00:45:21.000
the pike. Take advantage of it. Anyway, back

00:45:21.000 --> 00:45:25.639
to Fee's comments. So, Nafisa Collier sat down

00:45:25.639 --> 00:45:27.199
and said, before she takes any questions in her

00:45:27.199 --> 00:45:30.280
A's interview, she just lit into Kathy Engelberg.

00:45:30.340 --> 00:45:34.079
She said how, kind of cliff -noted, at one point

00:45:34.079 --> 00:45:35.960
Kathy Engelberg said that Kaitlyn Clark should

00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:39.199
be thanking her for the platform so that Kaitlyn

00:45:39.199 --> 00:45:40.340
can make a whole bunch of money off the court.

00:45:40.650 --> 00:45:42.849
because Fee said that she thought it was unfair

00:45:42.849 --> 00:45:45.289
that Angel Reese and Kaitlyn Clark and Paige

00:45:45.289 --> 00:45:47.570
Beckers, women who are clearly driving the revenue,

00:45:47.710 --> 00:45:50.530
who are clearly at the forefront of this new

00:45:50.530 --> 00:45:53.409
wave of attention and fandom and fan bases and

00:45:53.409 --> 00:45:57.469
whatever, are making so little money. Kathy basically

00:45:57.469 --> 00:45:59.929
said they better be glad they even have a chance

00:45:59.929 --> 00:46:02.570
to do it. Kaitlyn better be glad she makes $16

00:46:02.570 --> 00:46:09.510
million off the court. Nafisa Kalia also pulled

00:46:09.510 --> 00:46:12.329
up receipts that Kathy Engelbert said that the

00:46:12.329 --> 00:46:14.610
players should be on their knees thanking her

00:46:14.610 --> 00:46:18.469
for the media deal she got for them. She also

00:46:18.469 --> 00:46:21.769
mentioned something else. Oh, Nafisa Kalia pointed

00:46:21.769 --> 00:46:24.650
to her running unrivaled. She said, it would

00:46:24.650 --> 00:46:26.150
be one thing if I didn't know how to run a league,

00:46:26.230 --> 00:46:28.670
but unfortunately for them, I do. Unrivaled is

00:46:28.670 --> 00:46:31.010
very profitable. They had a TV deal set up up

00:46:31.010 --> 00:46:33.230
on arrival. The players love it. The facilities

00:46:33.230 --> 00:46:35.329
are great. They play in one location. They work

00:46:35.329 --> 00:46:37.650
out all the time. There's this great free agent

00:46:37.650 --> 00:46:41.170
kind of bonding situation, recruitment kind of

00:46:41.170 --> 00:46:43.989
thing going on, right? But unrivaled's great.

00:46:44.530 --> 00:46:48.130
And so to have someone who runs unrivaled basketball,

00:46:48.309 --> 00:46:49.730
supposed to be an off -season league for ladies

00:46:49.730 --> 00:46:53.730
who don't have to go overseas now, for you to,

00:46:53.889 --> 00:47:01.449
for Nafisa Collier to scathingly lambast kathy

00:47:01.449 --> 00:47:05.230
engelbert the way that she did i mean we're not

00:47:05.230 --> 00:47:09.230
talking about a rant on twitter we're not talking

00:47:09.230 --> 00:47:12.849
about a in the car video off the cuff we're not

00:47:12.849 --> 00:47:16.130
talking about in the bathroom or in the living

00:47:16.130 --> 00:47:19.809
room and you know you get on instagram live or

00:47:19.809 --> 00:47:21.690
people did people just record it and post it

00:47:21.690 --> 00:47:25.050
she went to her exit interview in front of minnesota

00:47:25.050 --> 00:47:27.579
media Everybody knew she was the center of the

00:47:27.579 --> 00:47:31.739
latest WNBA controversy. She runs on rival and

00:47:31.739 --> 00:47:36.320
she's highly respected in the WNBA circles with

00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:40.000
a four -minute prepared speech with receipts,

00:47:40.059 --> 00:47:45.340
with evidence, with scathing points. I mean,

00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:51.059
this was bad. Like, I can't imagine trying to

00:47:51.059 --> 00:47:53.219
think. AJ wasn't the best player in the world,

00:47:53.260 --> 00:47:55.280
so it's not Patrick Mahomes. This would be like

00:47:55.280 --> 00:48:01.179
Joe Burrow going up and just ripping Roger Goodell

00:48:01.179 --> 00:48:07.099
to shreds. This would be like Shea Gildress Alexander

00:48:07.099 --> 00:48:12.800
tearing apart Adam Silver with a four or five

00:48:12.800 --> 00:48:14.559
minute prepared speech on labor negotiations

00:48:14.559 --> 00:48:16.500
and not trusting the players and not caring.

00:48:16.920 --> 00:48:19.039
And there's been little stuff that has leaked

00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:20.960
out, like people complaining about the scheduling.

00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:23.780
you know there's no reason to play that many

00:48:23.780 --> 00:48:27.440
games in that many days excuse me travel was

00:48:27.440 --> 00:48:32.739
a big issue hence the private plane deal or the

00:48:32.739 --> 00:48:36.719
charter flight deal um i mean so many different

00:48:36.719 --> 00:48:39.500
things have you know popped up small relatively

00:48:39.500 --> 00:48:42.840
i mean but i mean i had a problem remember i

00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:48.000
had a problem with kathy whenever you know like

00:48:48.000 --> 00:48:50.769
the raiders owner Mark Davis was going to use

00:48:50.769 --> 00:48:53.349
the Raiders plane for the Aces. Like, they just

00:48:53.349 --> 00:48:55.590
fly on the Raiders plane. She was like, no, that's

00:48:55.590 --> 00:49:00.949
an impermissible benefit. What? Because my owner

00:49:00.949 --> 00:49:04.829
has money and others don't? I remember when the

00:49:04.829 --> 00:49:06.369
Memphis Grizzlies owners were talking about coming.

00:49:06.530 --> 00:49:07.809
I think they have a team. No, they're involved

00:49:07.809 --> 00:49:11.349
with Brooklyn, I think. They were going to use

00:49:11.349 --> 00:49:13.469
their team plane to fly the players. I'm like,

00:49:13.550 --> 00:49:16.250
nope, can't do it. Because everybody can't fly

00:49:16.250 --> 00:49:20.460
private, so you can't either. what that's a part

00:49:20.460 --> 00:49:23.000
of it that's a part of my franchise is better

00:49:23.000 --> 00:49:25.099
we have charter planes that franchise doesn't

00:49:25.099 --> 00:49:27.340
like that you know what i'm saying like that's

00:49:27.340 --> 00:49:30.239
part of it that's part of the business like you

00:49:30.239 --> 00:49:33.099
know and stuff like that i would i lamented it

00:49:33.099 --> 00:49:37.340
for years as a kathy's not it man like even before

00:49:37.340 --> 00:49:40.619
the w exploded even before we had this mega wave

00:49:40.619 --> 00:49:42.500
with that you know that specific high school

00:49:42.500 --> 00:49:45.139
class with page and camilla and caitlin and angel

00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:48.460
And Brink and Haley Van Lith, you know, before

00:49:48.460 --> 00:49:51.300
them. And, you know, a lot of these stars came

00:49:51.300 --> 00:49:53.840
in. And Juju Watkins is on the rise. She's coming.

00:49:54.139 --> 00:49:56.219
You know, Sarah Strong is in college basketball

00:49:56.219 --> 00:49:58.260
right now. And Flo J. Johnson. And, you know,

00:49:58.260 --> 00:50:02.280
you've got all these stars that are running around

00:50:02.280 --> 00:50:06.400
women's basketball. I said Kathy wasn't the one

00:50:06.400 --> 00:50:08.719
to lead them. I said Mark Tatum. I don't know

00:50:08.719 --> 00:50:10.179
why that keeps coming in my head. But he's the

00:50:10.179 --> 00:50:13.000
deputy commissioner of the NBA. He's next in

00:50:13.000 --> 00:50:14.579
line to be the commissioner commissioner. Adam

00:50:14.579 --> 00:50:16.639
Silver was David Stern's deputy commissioner.

00:50:17.980 --> 00:50:20.400
Excuse me. Adam Silver was David Stern's deputy

00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:24.159
commissioner. Now Mark Tatum is Adam Silver's.

00:50:24.900 --> 00:50:27.199
Hey, Mark, get your feet wet. Go to the WNBA

00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:29.760
for a few years. Be the commissioner there. You'll

00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:31.619
stay on NBA payroll as far as your salary, your

00:50:31.619 --> 00:50:34.139
amount and everything, but you'll be 90 % of

00:50:34.139 --> 00:50:38.360
your day be WNBA. Or you're WNBA, you know, so

00:50:38.360 --> 00:50:40.019
you're WNBA during the summer. You come to the

00:50:40.019 --> 00:50:42.639
NBA league office. During the NBA offseason.

00:50:42.820 --> 00:50:47.880
But. Or something. You know. But. To have that

00:50:47.880 --> 00:50:51.460
happen to you. And then to have the players back

00:50:51.460 --> 00:50:54.800
it. Then you give a weak response. I mean. It

00:50:54.800 --> 00:50:57.639
was terrible. It was. It was effectively like

00:50:57.639 --> 00:51:01.820
being shot in the arm. And then talk about emotional

00:51:01.820 --> 00:51:05.860
healing. Because she. I mean. She said she respected

00:51:05.860 --> 00:51:08.059
Nafisa Collier. And all the players. And stuff

00:51:08.059 --> 00:51:14.159
like that. But. She tapped dance like the late,

00:51:14.199 --> 00:51:25.179
great Gregory Hines. When it came down to. She

00:51:25.179 --> 00:51:27.360
tapped dance like the late, great Gregory Hines.

00:51:27.679 --> 00:51:33.500
When it came down to avoiding that, you know,

00:51:33.500 --> 00:51:36.539
thing. I mean, she she put out a very weak statement.

00:51:39.179 --> 00:51:42.840
You got blasted. For four minutes. On a prep

00:51:42.840 --> 00:51:46.360
speech. Right. Like it was. It ain't something

00:51:46.360 --> 00:51:49.639
that she. Like I said. It wasn't the whole. Let

00:51:49.639 --> 00:51:55.039
me. Sit in. My living room. Or my. Instagram

00:51:55.039 --> 00:51:57.639
live. And I'm emotional. Or whatever. No. She

00:51:57.639 --> 00:52:05.219
had a four minute speech. About you. And your

00:52:05.219 --> 00:52:09.679
response was. What your response was. It's not

00:52:09.679 --> 00:52:16.260
good. Right? That's not good. So, I think ultimately,

00:52:16.460 --> 00:52:24.460
I think at this point, Cathy's going to have

00:52:24.460 --> 00:52:29.380
to resign. I don't, I mean, you've got Sophie

00:52:29.380 --> 00:52:32.000
Cunningham saying that she's tired of the WNBA's

00:52:32.000 --> 00:52:35.960
BS and that they don't even have a league. Lockout's

00:52:35.960 --> 00:52:42.690
coming. I mean, this is bad for the W and players

00:52:42.690 --> 00:52:44.769
are saying it like at the time where the W needs

00:52:44.769 --> 00:52:47.570
to hurry up and lock it down and expand and get

00:52:47.570 --> 00:52:52.230
it together. And you're potentially running face

00:52:52.230 --> 00:52:56.909
first into a lockout in the biggest, most important

00:52:56.909 --> 00:52:59.909
time of the WCAP. Like free agency for the WNBA

00:52:59.909 --> 00:53:03.050
should have been setting a record contract every

00:53:03.050 --> 00:53:05.530
day and the first million dollar deal or whatever

00:53:05.530 --> 00:53:10.639
it was going to be. Constantly. All over social

00:53:10.639 --> 00:53:13.860
media. All over the platforms. Biggest offseason

00:53:13.860 --> 00:53:16.139
in WNBA history. One of the bigger offseasons

00:53:16.139 --> 00:53:19.960
in professional basketball history. And instead,

00:53:20.079 --> 00:53:22.000
you're running face first to a lockout. And the

00:53:22.000 --> 00:53:24.639
biggest story, even overshadowing your finals,

00:53:24.719 --> 00:53:26.559
that starts by the time you guys hear this tonight,

00:53:26.719 --> 00:53:32.559
is the first, second, third best player in the

00:53:32.559 --> 00:53:35.579
world. Blasting your commissioner for being a

00:53:35.579 --> 00:53:37.480
terrible, not only commissioner, but it sounds

00:53:37.480 --> 00:53:43.059
like person. That ain't great. Kathy's got to

00:53:43.059 --> 00:53:47.219
step down. Said it for years. She ain't the one.

00:53:49.400 --> 00:53:54.860
Players have hinted at it for years. The feast

00:53:54.860 --> 00:53:59.159
will drop the bomb. Angel Reese stepped out quickly

00:53:59.159 --> 00:54:02.219
and supported her. Derek and Hamby jumped out

00:54:02.219 --> 00:54:05.420
quickly and supported her. Paige Beckers made

00:54:05.420 --> 00:54:08.059
her feelings known. Kaylin Clark, not so much.

00:54:10.079 --> 00:54:12.960
Lisa Leslie has been on platforms making her

00:54:12.960 --> 00:54:19.179
feelings known. Legends, walking statues, walking

00:54:19.179 --> 00:54:23.940
Hall of Fame bus are putting their support in.

00:54:26.280 --> 00:54:29.940
Kathy's got to go. The WNBA wants any hope of

00:54:29.940 --> 00:54:33.860
this thing smoothing out. Kathy's got to go or

00:54:33.860 --> 00:54:36.739
she's got to concede a lot in the negotiation.

00:54:38.900 --> 00:54:42.159
I'm not sure either. I'm not sure she's willing

00:54:42.159 --> 00:54:44.679
to do either. I think for the league's purposes,

00:54:44.780 --> 00:54:47.059
force her out, hire a new commissioner, and then

00:54:47.059 --> 00:54:51.320
a commissioner negotiates the deal. But that

00:54:51.320 --> 00:54:55.960
was bad. And Nafisa Collier did it at an expert

00:54:55.960 --> 00:55:01.250
level. I mean, it was marvelous what she did

00:55:01.250 --> 00:55:06.590
at an expert level. Congratulations to her on

00:55:06.590 --> 00:55:11.550
what she said. All of it was true. And so kudos

00:55:11.550 --> 00:55:16.150
to her. But up next, we're going to have our

00:55:16.150 --> 00:55:21.449
best for last about the NBA media day as we are

00:55:21.449 --> 00:55:23.789
simply, I mean, preseason basketball is happening.

00:55:23.829 --> 00:55:28.719
We are simply weeks away. From the NBA season

00:55:28.719 --> 00:55:58.239
Welcome back to the show. And now we're going

00:55:58.239 --> 00:56:01.860
to talk about the NBA media day. Kind of some

00:56:01.860 --> 00:56:04.860
quick hitters. Some stuff that popped out. Zion

00:56:04.860 --> 00:56:07.619
Williamson's body was the number one thing that

00:56:07.619 --> 00:56:12.659
popped out. Skinny Z, Slim Z, Ozempic Z has been

00:56:12.659 --> 00:56:16.780
some of the names thrown around. Hill Zion, Mountain

00:56:16.780 --> 00:56:20.780
Zion. That's been kind of the names that have

00:56:20.780 --> 00:56:24.289
been thrown around. Mostly jokes, but mostly

00:56:24.289 --> 00:56:26.570
commending him. He dedicated himself. He said

00:56:26.570 --> 00:56:28.969
he had a workout plan this summer. He stuck to

00:56:28.969 --> 00:56:31.010
it. He had boxing. He had a different level of

00:56:31.010 --> 00:56:33.590
training. He looks great. Zion Williamson was

00:56:33.590 --> 00:56:36.349
not caught without his shirt off on purpose.

00:56:36.789 --> 00:56:38.710
He used to have the little white tight thing

00:56:38.710 --> 00:56:41.849
on his jersey if he took his jersey off. He's

00:56:41.849 --> 00:56:43.789
taking pictures with fans shirtless. He's confident

00:56:43.789 --> 00:56:46.789
in his body. He likes the way it looks. He likes

00:56:46.789 --> 00:56:50.360
the way it feels. He feels amazing. Which is

00:56:50.360 --> 00:56:53.300
great, man. Zion Williamson, healthy, is a top

00:56:53.300 --> 00:56:57.139
10 player in the NBA. Pelicans were the top 10

00:56:57.139 --> 00:56:59.599
player in the NBA. And Zion, you add a Jordan

00:56:59.599 --> 00:57:02.099
Poole, you add a Kevon Looney. Trey Murphy and

00:57:02.099 --> 00:57:04.300
Herb Jones are both top 10 wings in this league.

00:57:05.820 --> 00:57:08.980
You're looking at a playoff team. Zion's an MVP

00:57:08.980 --> 00:57:10.920
candidate. You're looking at a conference finals

00:57:10.920 --> 00:57:17.559
appearance, potentially, in New Orleans. kudos

00:57:17.559 --> 00:57:20.699
to Zion for getting his body in shape I hope

00:57:20.699 --> 00:57:26.019
that he doesn't get injured little nicks and

00:57:26.019 --> 00:57:28.980
bruises whatever but like don't have a sprained

00:57:28.980 --> 00:57:31.519
knee and it's out for a month because then it

00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:34.980
kind of goes with well dang I was big and I got

00:57:34.980 --> 00:57:38.159
hurt smaller like I hurt what's the benefit whatever

00:57:38.159 --> 00:57:42.139
but he look he's flying around just from the

00:57:42.139 --> 00:57:45.219
clips I've seen when they were in Australia um

00:57:45.219 --> 00:57:48.159
Anthony Davis looks chunky he can say what he

00:57:48.159 --> 00:57:50.119
want to say because ask him about his weight

00:57:50.119 --> 00:57:52.340
he said he wants to say in terms of he typically

00:57:52.340 --> 00:57:56.179
255 258 but he don't want to come in his playing

00:57:56.179 --> 00:57:58.079
weight because he loses apparently he loses 10

00:57:58.079 --> 00:58:00.800
to 12 pounds early in the season every year so

00:58:00.800 --> 00:58:02.460
he doesn't want to come in at his playing weight

00:58:02.460 --> 00:58:04.159
because then when he loses those 10 to 12 he'll

00:58:04.159 --> 00:58:07.639
be underweight whatever I've seen Anthony Davis

00:58:07.639 --> 00:58:13.239
every single offseason since he was a pelican

00:58:14.019 --> 00:58:17.880
Since he came in as a rookie, every single offseason,

00:58:18.059 --> 00:58:21.900
I have seen Anthony Davis. He was a New Orleans

00:58:21.900 --> 00:58:23.840
Pelican, and then he went to play with LeBron.

00:58:23.960 --> 00:58:26.059
If you want to pay attention to you closely,

00:58:26.199 --> 00:58:32.019
be a Pelican or play with LeBron. And he did

00:58:32.019 --> 00:58:34.699
those things for the first, I mean, all his career.

00:58:34.760 --> 00:58:36.179
He was either a Pelican or with LeBron, so I

00:58:36.179 --> 00:58:37.920
paid attention to him closely. He's never been

00:58:37.920 --> 00:58:41.559
this big. He looks chunky. He looks like Luka

00:58:41.559 --> 00:58:44.920
did in Dallas. Luka looks like AD did in LA.

00:58:45.679 --> 00:58:48.539
Not saying those things are connected. However,

00:58:48.780 --> 00:58:52.420
AD's never been chunky. He's chunky in Dallas.

00:58:52.760 --> 00:58:54.639
Luka's never been skinny. He's skinny in LA.

00:58:55.000 --> 00:58:57.460
Not saying those things are connected. But it

00:58:57.460 --> 00:59:02.320
is very convenient. Another thing I noticed from

00:59:02.320 --> 00:59:04.880
EDA is Brandon Ingram's comments lambasting the

00:59:04.880 --> 00:59:07.960
city of New Orleans. You know, trash talking

00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:09.380
New Orleans about attendance and so on and so

00:59:09.380 --> 00:59:11.159
forth. A lot of people ran a bunch of numbers.

00:59:11.300 --> 00:59:13.340
Turns out New Orleans -Toronto attendance, not

00:59:13.340 --> 00:59:15.199
that much different. Also attendance when he

00:59:15.199 --> 00:59:18.619
plays, not that much different. So, you know,

00:59:18.719 --> 00:59:20.539
it's kind of hard to talk noise when you're routinely

00:59:20.539 --> 00:59:23.099
injured. Now, I mean, obviously injuries are

00:59:23.099 --> 00:59:26.400
sometimes hard to control, but from a fan, no

00:59:26.400 --> 00:59:28.199
offense to this guy, but like Brandon Boston

00:59:28.199 --> 00:59:31.159
was a guy that played a lot of minutes for the

00:59:31.159 --> 00:59:34.679
Pelicans. Not Zion, not Trey, not Herb, not CJ,

00:59:34.840 --> 00:59:39.840
not Brandon. Not Brandon Ingram, but Brandon

00:59:39.840 --> 00:59:42.179
Boston. No offense to Brandon Boston at all.

00:59:42.340 --> 00:59:43.719
Loved him when he was in New Orleans. Thank you

00:59:43.719 --> 00:59:47.460
for what you did for my pals. Doesn't exactly

00:59:47.460 --> 00:59:49.780
incite people to want to go to the game. Just

00:59:49.780 --> 00:59:53.059
doesn't. So injuries and stuff play a part. Obviously,

00:59:53.059 --> 00:59:58.210
that stuff matters, right? Let's see here. Anything

00:59:58.210 --> 01:00:00.010
else for me today that jumped out to me? Oh,

01:00:00.070 --> 01:00:03.030
LeBron's going to start training camp very slowly.

01:00:03.289 --> 01:00:05.789
He probably has a nerve issue in his glute. So

01:00:05.789 --> 01:00:09.530
he's entering year 23 very slowly. Plans to ramp

01:00:09.530 --> 01:00:13.449
him up extremely cautiously to have him ready

01:00:13.449 --> 01:00:15.769
for opening night, which again is in about three

01:00:15.769 --> 01:00:21.070
weeks' time. I don't think there's anything else

01:00:21.070 --> 01:00:24.250
that jumped out to me quickly. Oh, the old Warriors,

01:00:24.489 --> 01:00:28.710
the old in -state Warriors. the Golden State

01:00:28.710 --> 01:00:32.230
former Warriors. Those guys are old, man. Like,

01:00:32.230 --> 01:00:34.489
they are starting their lineup this year, potentially

01:00:34.489 --> 01:00:38.409
the youngest guy in it. It's like 33 -34. The

01:00:38.409 --> 01:00:39.929
day before media day, they had nine players.

01:00:40.309 --> 01:00:42.389
Then they signed Al Horford, and then they picked

01:00:42.389 --> 01:00:45.230
up DeAnthony Melton, got Kaminga back, signed

01:00:45.230 --> 01:00:47.550
somebody else, and then they brought in Seth

01:00:47.550 --> 01:00:52.349
Kerr and Exhibit 9 deal. So that was, you know,

01:00:52.389 --> 01:00:53.869
kind of the Warriors offseason. They kind of

01:00:53.869 --> 01:00:55.429
waited and waited and waited and waited and waited.

01:00:56.159 --> 01:00:58.039
And then did everything we expected them to do.

01:00:58.260 --> 01:01:01.139
Get a Horford, bring back Kaminga, get back Melton.

01:01:01.300 --> 01:01:04.300
Seth Curry was a curveball or a new piece. But

01:01:04.300 --> 01:01:07.219
they did almost verbatim everything we said they

01:01:07.219 --> 01:01:12.639
were going to do. But that is kind of the main

01:01:12.639 --> 01:01:15.400
storyline so far throughout the NBA's media days.

01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:18.760
Oh, and then the Kawhi Leonard stuff. Ramona

01:01:18.760 --> 01:01:21.380
Shelburne is reporting that there were several

01:01:21.380 --> 01:01:24.940
people. So they, after she... hammering on the

01:01:24.940 --> 01:01:29.039
aspiration stuff um which is if you guys remember

01:01:29.039 --> 01:01:32.800
the constant ongoing pablo torre investigation

01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:37.280
into effectively cap circumvention from the los

01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:39.500
angeles clippers involved in company company

01:01:39.500 --> 01:01:41.940
named aspiration that has like a basically a

01:01:41.940 --> 01:01:45.039
no -show contract with quiet leonard to pay him

01:01:45.039 --> 01:01:47.639
a little extra money that conveniently always

01:01:47.639 --> 01:01:50.699
seems to match or nearly match the paper trail

01:01:50.699 --> 01:01:53.019
of investments from Clippers, either ownership

01:01:53.019 --> 01:01:58.239
or high -level management. And Ramona Shelburne

01:01:58.239 --> 01:02:00.260
hammered in on it. Like, she asked repeatedly

01:02:00.260 --> 01:02:02.039
to the point where I ended up just no commenting

01:02:02.039 --> 01:02:05.960
out of it. And then they apparently, according

01:02:05.960 --> 01:02:08.840
to Ramona Shelburne, they took her microphone.

01:02:09.860 --> 01:02:13.219
And then there was five or six people whose hands

01:02:13.219 --> 01:02:15.719
stayed up almost the entire time that never got

01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:20.199
called on. People who were connected and who

01:02:20.199 --> 01:02:23.699
they thought might have harped on aspiration

01:02:23.699 --> 01:02:27.780
juxtaposed with the basketball court. If you

01:02:27.780 --> 01:02:29.039
don't want your dirt talked about in the media,

01:02:29.159 --> 01:02:33.179
don't do it. That's just me. But that is the

01:02:33.179 --> 01:02:37.239
gist of what's happening in the NBA. But that

01:02:37.239 --> 01:02:40.119
also concludes everything we have for today.

01:02:40.500 --> 01:02:43.300
Glad to be back with you guys. Crossed the hour

01:02:43.300 --> 01:02:46.119
cliff. Nice, nice. Crossed over an hour there.

01:02:46.679 --> 01:02:48.480
So excited to be back with you guys and to be

01:02:48.480 --> 01:02:50.679
back on this microphone talking with y 'all,

01:02:50.739 --> 01:02:54.119
sharing my unbridled, unfiltered opinions about

01:02:54.119 --> 01:02:58.280
the worldwide of sports all over America right

now. We'll touch on international stuff coming

01:03:00.079 --> 01:03:04.239
up soon. But as always, thank you guys for joining

01:03:04.239 --> 01:03:05.780
