• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This is Mosher Lombardi and Kane on demand. Listen live
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: every weekday morning from 7 to 10 on Altitude Sports
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Radio 92.5 and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Did you think they won the line of scrimmage and
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: that surprised you a little bit?
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: Well, I think they won a lot of the battles.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: Like you can take the line of scrimmage. You can
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: take the kick coverage. They got a big return.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Penalties.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: That impacted field position a lot.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: Rushing battle. Like, pick a topic.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: And I would say, yeah.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: That would be one. But I would say there's, you know,
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure out the top, you know, the one.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: I mean, the kicker's going to be the player of
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: the game.
• 0:53
  Speaker 5: Sean Payton yesterday, again. We'll talk to Adam Schefter in
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: about 15 minutes from right now. Got a lot to
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: ask Adam. And part of this, you know, cut down
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: day is coming, I believe, Sunday, right? All these preseason
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: week number three games will wrap up and then it'll
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: be a thousand guys back on the market immediately. And
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: I still think that the most important detail to what
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: the Broncos need to do this year, we talked a
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: little bit about time of possession, creating turnovers. But you
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: can't wear out your defense over the course of a year.
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: And how do you do that? By keeping the ball
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: and moving the chains. And that's why maybe the most
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: important player of this entire preseason was the one throw
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: to Jalen Waddle, right? Because it showed just something different
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: from what this team did not have previously. It showed
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: an athleticism and a dynamic nature to the offense that
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: they didn't possess before.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine reducing all hope and dreams to one
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: play in a preseason game? I mean, and I'm not
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: admonishing you for suggesting that.
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: No, I agree with you.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: It's truly remarkable that we base, like, Hey, what do
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: you think of the Broncos this year? Well, do you
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: remember that throw? It reminds me last year. Do you
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: remember the throw Jarrett Stidham had him on the run
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: to the right and he hit Evan Ingram?
• 2:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: It was a gain of like 45 yards. And we
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: based everything going into the season on that player. Like, yeah, see?
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: See? Right.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: It's just weird.
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: A tight end.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: But it's, I think beyond that, that was a last
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: year to Ingram was like, oh, that's a good play.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: Good catch and run. But you just see it with
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: Jalen Waddell. It's something different that exists within him that
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: nobody else seems to have. You don't have the ability to.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: Why was he open? Because he was faster than the
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: guy in front of him. It's that simple. It wasn't
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: like a precise route or a timing thing or, oh,
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: the guy slipped. He was faster than the other guy.
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: He got open, caught the ball, and then was fast
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: enough to get another 12, 14 yards because he's faster
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: than everybody else that was behind him.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: And in that route, you can see the difference between
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: a Marvin Mims fast and a Jalen Waddle fast. Marvin
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Mims is a, he's more of a speed merchant type guy.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Straight ahead.
• 3:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: This Waddle guy, he's like a stop, cut, top speed, go.
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: He scatters.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: He goes sideways. He can do a lot of that stuff.
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: Well, he was pumped about it, too, when he was
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: talking about it yesterday. And look, here's what's weird, though, Vic.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: You mentioned that, and I know you're saying you weren't
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: admonishing me for it. I agree with you. Like, putting
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: stock in a single play from the preseason is incredibly silly.
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: But it is something like, it's one thing to see
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: it in camp, and an actual game situation to see
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: speed and athleticism exist within an offense that hasn't had it.
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: You know, I've asked this question over and over again.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: When's the last time you were wowed by something athletically
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: in the Broncos offense? It's been a long time.
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I guess it has been.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: It has.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: The better players that you've had within this offense are
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: guys like Courtland Sutton, obviously a very good player. Tim Patrick,
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: super reliable. He ain't running past anybody. You know what
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: I mean? And this isn't like denigrating anybody for their
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: accomplishments in the past. It's just a different level to
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: the offense that you didn't have before. And it's something
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: that could break other things open. Like, maybe the most
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: exciting thing about Jalen Waddell is what it does for
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: guys like Cortland Sutton, which is... I don't have two
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: guys covering me all the time. They don't have the
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: ability to just game plan me out because they aren't
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: worried about others that are on the field. And you
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: mentioned this yesterday, Vic. How many times do you see
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: Broncos receivers wide open like that?
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: Not very often.
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: And I know there's a different level of open in
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: the NFL as there is to college, right? If you've
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: got to step on a guy, you're open, but I'm
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: saying wide, nobody within the vicinity, like you could make
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: a bad throw and it doesn't matter. It's still going
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: to be a completion. That sort of thing just hasn't happened. It's,
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: it's too difficult for guys who just aren't gifted in
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: that way.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: And I think all it does in my respect, it
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: makes Marvin Mims more valuable because I think they can
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: understand now what that does to a team and an offense.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I've always wondered, why aren't they utilizing Marvin
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Mims more? We've wondered that for the last two years, right? Well,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: maybe Jalen Waddell will allow Marvin Mims to do more
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: in a roundabout way.
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: I would love to see them both on the field
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: at once. I really would.
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: I don't see it happening.
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: Well, they go three wide. Like, there is room. But
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: he was... When Marvin Mims was listed as number one
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: on the depth chart when that unofficial one first came out,
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: like he was listed, sorry, as a starter. So it
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: was Sutton, it was Waddle, and it was Mims as
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: your three starting wide receivers. Don't you guys think that
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: Mims is going to be a starting wide receiver?
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: I think other guys are going to get, I think, listen,
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: I think other guys are going to get plenty of play.
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: So you can call him a starter if you want
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: to call him a starter, but I think that you're
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: going to see heavy doses of Pat Bryant this year.
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: You're going to see heavy doses of, of Troy Franklin
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: this year. Well, you need, you need every, you need,
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: I know, I know you need all of them, but,
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: but I mean, I don't think, is he still listed
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: as a starter? The death chart? I don't, I don't
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: know that he is. I don't know.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: He was injured.
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: I don't know. I mean, at least he's back on
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: the field. That's good news, but you're going to see
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: a heavy dose of everybody.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Probably.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: There is a weird name. Have you guys heard much
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: of anything from Troy Franklin?
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Uh, he hasn't had the preseason that I guess, you know,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: as a, Two years ago when he came in as
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: a rookie, it was a little different. Last year, remember,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: he was much more improved in pass catching last year.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Talked about that.
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: But that doesn't necessarily mean he's fallen off the face
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: of the earth.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: No, I'm just saying you haven't heard a lot from
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: Troy Franklin really through camp or a couple of preseason
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: games so far.
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: I think it's just expected that he's part of this rotation.
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: Is he not?
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: You'd think so. I mean, he came in with the
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: added benefit of being, you know, Bo Nix's college teammate.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: And is it adopted brother? Is that what it was?
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: Do I have that story right?
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: Yes. Yeah.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Wait, no.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: No.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Are you saying that Troy Franklin is Bo Nix's adopted brother?
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: Wasn't there something like that? Am I missing something?
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: No, there was a teammate of his who played at
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Oregon who came out the year after.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: Wait, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: You're right.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: You're right.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: The other receiver.
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: Tez Johnson, is that it? Yes, Tez Johnson. But teammate
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: of his at Oregon, so he had the added benefit
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: of like already established chemistry, whatever. It's just I'm so
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: curious how the targets are going to go around because
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: Jalen Waddell better get a ton and Cortland Sutton better
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: get a ton. But from there, you're going to be
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: throwing balls to backs out of the backfield. You're going
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: to be assumingly targeting Evan Ingram. I mean, there's only
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: so many to go around. The same thing as you
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: talk about with teams that like stack up superstars on
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: NBA rosters. And it's like, well, somebody is not going
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: to get 20 points a game, not enough basketball for it.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: If you got to recruit a current day professional athlete
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: to become your adopted brother, where would you go? Wimby?
• 8:32
  Speaker 8: Joker.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: You kidding? How would it not be joke? He makes
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: more money than anybody else in this town.
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: But I mean, this is not financially related. You just,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: It's your adopted brother.
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: Joker's pretty cool.
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: I want to have adopted Joker brothers like his brothers.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: I want to have those. You know what I want?
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: I want to get on a jet ski with Strahinia
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: and just hold on to the pack. Oh, my God.
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: It's like a jet pack on his back.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: There'll be all the Jokic brothers together and they'll see Jokic, Jokic, Jokic.
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: Who's this guy?
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: Hi.
• 9:07
  Speaker 7: Hi.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 9:07
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: That's what I want.
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: I'm 6'3, but I'm the little guy.
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: I mean, is that not the best answer? You give
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: me a different answer then.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, there's no bad answer. I'm just, it's
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: a curious question. If you had to produce an adopted brother,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: who would it be? Can I still keep my dad,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: but have Bednar as my adopted dad?
• 9:26
  Speaker 9: No, no, no, no.
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: So you got to tell Troy, you got to give
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: Troy the Ziggy because you want Beds to be your dad.
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: He talks about his ranch a lot. I want to
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: go see it.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Don't worry, I'm in your way. Whose ranch?
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: His house out in the mountains. He talks about it
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: a lot. Sounds fun. I want that to be my
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: adopted dad. Did you guys see yesterday?
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Word came down that a bunch of the Nuggets players
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: are in Puerto Rico at J.J. Barea's gym. So J.J.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: is a I believe he's still a part owner. of
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: a Puerto Rican professional team. And he was coaching there
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: for a while. And he runs a camp and a gym.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: And he convinced a few of the Nuggets players to
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: come on out, maybe a bonding moment, mini camp. And
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: led by Aaron Gordon. Aaron Gordon's the guy who got
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: this thing going. He got a bunch of the guys
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: to go out there. I cannot tell you all the
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: guys present. I saw some video and some pictures and
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: saw Zeke Nagy was there. A couple of the newer
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: players were there. I didn't see Jamal. Obviously, Joker's playing
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: in these FIBA friendlies. He's not going to be there.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: But there are a few players that Aaron Gordon organized
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: and got them out to go hang, which I think
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: is great. It just goes to show you, How much
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: bigger a role Aaron Gordon plays on this team than
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: we think? Aaron Gordon's the guy who helped get DeMar DeRozan, right?
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Aaron Gordon's that guy.
• 10:54
  Speaker 6: Dude, he is such a big factor for this squad.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: And you're right.
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: It's not just his play on the floor. It's who
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: he is as a guy and his leadership abilities on
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: that basketball team. So if he's down there, Vic, I
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: didn't realize this. If he's down there and they're working
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: out in Puerto Rico, I have to assume his hammy's
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: in pretty good shape.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Hang on a second.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: I get a better answer to this. Flax in the
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: text line nailed it. You want to be Giannis' brother,
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: because then you're on an NBA roster, and that's pretty cool.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: Brett Antetokounmpo as the 14th man on the roster for
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: the Chicago Bulls. All right.
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: Well, that's used to could, right?
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: Brett, you have to admit, I'm looking at a photo
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: right now, and I could totally pass as one of
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: the brothers.
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: Goodness gracious. Yeah, no.
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: That's just like the picture. By the way, Strahinia is
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: so much bigger now than that picture.
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: By the way, that's a long time ago, dude.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: That is a long time ago.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: You know what that picture's from? That's the first All-Star
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: weekend that Joker attended as a member of the Rising
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Stars team. And I can't remember what year that was.
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: That's got to be 2014. No, that was like 2017.
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: February 17, 2017.
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: Reminds me of.
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: The picture I just showed you, Moj, of the— college
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: national champion wrestler who's married to the college volleyball player.
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: She's twice his size. That's what it looked like. Like
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: you standing next to like..
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: Vic, send that pic to Nelly real quick and let's
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: put them side by side.
• 12:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Put what side by side?
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: There's this guy..
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: Send that pic to Nelly real quick, please.
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: This guy is a national champion wrestler.
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: At like 133 pounds.
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: But he's married to a college volleyball player... who looks
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: like she's seven feet tall. Or maybe she just looks
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: that way because she's standing next to him.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Had I made, had I used a scouting service before
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: my matrimony and done it, just, you know there are
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: people out there, and there are people listening right now,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: and I know you are, I know you are, who
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: chose their wedded bliss based on athletic endeavors. I know
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: you exist. I know you do. You'll never admit it.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: But I know you did. You recruited genetically to produce athletes.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: And that's where me and genetics come to odds. I
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: don't understand that concept.
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: Hang on a second. I'm going to find this picture again.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: I know you people.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: I see you all the time.
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: I see you.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: I know what you're doing. I know exactly what you're
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: up to.
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: Please send it to Nelly.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: You're trying to manufacture ultimate athletes. And you're doing so
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: by picking your mate. Handpicking your mate for genetic gifts.
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: All right, Nelly, I sent it to you.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: And I'm tired of it.
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: Are you jealous?
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: I'm not jealous.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: It's just, it's not right.
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: You're something. You're something.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: You can't do that.
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: All right, so there's Vic.
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: That's Vic with the Jokic brothers. Not the same size.
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: Very obvious. And Nelly, if you could. I need the
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: other one. I need the picture of the champion wrestler
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: in college married to the.
• 14:22
  Speaker 9: Volleyball player.
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Look at this.
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: That's crazier than my photo.
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 14:32
  Speaker 10: But wasn't he undefeated in his collegiate wrestling career?
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: No, he was amazing.
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: He's really good.
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: Vic, would you do that for the sake of athletically
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: gifted children?
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Would I marry a small wrestler?
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: No, you're the small wrestler.
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: To describe this to those listening, this guy is what?
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: Five foot five, five foot six, 130 pounds. She's got
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: to be 6'10. She has to be.
• 15:07
  Speaker 6: No, she's got to be like 6'7, maybe. Whatever.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: She's way taller than him. Like double his size, it
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: looks like.
• 15:13
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: Well, it's the bathing suit picture that's the one that's... Yeah.
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: You got the other one there, Nelly? You got the
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: other one? I know we got to get to Adam
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: Schefter here, but just click that photo.
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: I mean, I wish them all the best in the world.
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: Look at this, Vic. Look at that.
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: It's like twice the size.
• 15:30
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Okay. Yeah.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: We're going to Schefter. Adam Schefter joins us next.
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: Let's head out to the Ramos Law Hotline. Car accident.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: You need Ramos Law. Medical doctor and attorney. RamosLaw.com. Adam Schefter.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: ESPN joins us as he does every Tuesday. First of all, Adam,
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: thank you for joining us. Secondly, how much of the
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: decision for Deshaun Watson to start in Cleveland is financially
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: related with his contract? And how much do you think
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: is football related?
• 16:00
  Speaker 8: Well, I would say that the reason he's on the
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: roster is financially related. The reason that he's starting is
• 16:08
  Speaker 8: because that's kind of where they're at right now. Like,
• 16:10
  Speaker 8: I mean, he has to be on the roster without
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: the contract that they had no financial obligation.
• 16:16
  Speaker 9: He wouldn't be on the roster.
• 16:18
  Speaker 8: So the financial part of it lands him on the roster.
• 16:21
  Speaker 8: And from there, because of their situation, he wins the job.
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: I don't.
• 16:26
  Speaker 9: So it's kind of weird, right?
• 16:29
  Speaker 8: Like, I don't believe finances is why he won the job,
• 16:33
  Speaker 8: but finances is why he's there to begin with.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Sure. I think it makes him all more impressive how
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos, when they chose the nuclear option with
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Russell Wilson, and they were able to stay afloat, not
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: only stay afloat, in the second year, eating that dead money,
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: they're in the AFC Championship, for crying out loud. Is
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: there a nuclear option for the Cleveland Browns here, or
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: can they even afford to go that route?
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: Well..
• 16:59
  Speaker 9: They can't afford to do it right now.
• 17:01
  Speaker 8: If you look at it and look at the money involved,
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: basically I had the math breaking down today.
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: It was like 120 million in dead cap.
• 17:09
  Speaker 8: What's one 27 right now, one 27.17. If they cut
• 17:14
  Speaker 8: them today, which they're not doing and they can't, um,
• 17:19
  Speaker 8: if they cut them today, uh, it would be.
• 17:21
  Speaker 9: An $ 86. 2 million cap charge. Can't do it. I don't
• 17:26
  Speaker 9: even think that that far under the cap.
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: So, Could they spread that over a couple of years
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: or would that all be this season? Because the Broncos
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: are a similar number to that, but they spread it
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: over two years.
• 17:37
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that they have to wait until next year.
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: In fact, as I was looking at it, I had
• 17:46
  Speaker 8: to look at it again, but I was talking about
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: it with a cap guy.
• 17:49
  Speaker 9: And I think that I think that he's basically.
• 17:53
  Speaker 8: Going to be on the roster for two years, if
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: I'm not mistaken. I have to look at it again,
• 17:56
  Speaker 8: his contract. But I think he might be locked in
• 18:00
  Speaker 8: for two years.
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: Well, it's interesting, too, because we were talking about it, Adam,
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: the day before. I mean, he's like, the crowd's booing me,
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: and they cheered when I blew my Achilles. And then
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: I don't know if somebody got to him or he
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: had second thoughts after being named the starter. He was like, oh,
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: you know what? I just was really emotional. I shouldn't
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: have said the things I said. It's just a very,
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: I don't know. Brett texted one of his Browns fans buddies,
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: and that guy's just beside himself with the entire organization
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: right now.
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: Look, it's been going on since they came back to
• 18:31
  Speaker 8: the league in 1999. You know, there have not been
• 18:33
  Speaker 8: very many happy moments.
• 18:36
  Speaker 9: You know, the people in.
• 18:37
  Speaker 8: New York, you would say, the Jets fans would say,
• 18:39
  Speaker 8: hold my beer, but the Browns fans, that's tough. I mean,
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: it has not been easy. There are some franchises that,
• 18:44
  Speaker 8: you know, it's been a tough few decades here.
• 18:47
  Speaker 9: Cleveland, Jets... cardinals, like there are a few of them
• 18:51
  Speaker 9: that stand out and, uh, that's not easy.
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: Adam Schefter with us ESPN. So you had the story, uh,
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: yesterday that Ashton Gentry left Raiders practice with what's believed
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: to be a sprained ankle. Is this a sprained ankle
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: that he's good for the regular season or is this
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: going to linger?
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: Uh, maybe a little bit of both.
• 19:10
  Speaker 8: And talking to a bunch of people on Sunday night,
• 19:12
  Speaker 8: I got the sense that first of all, they were
• 19:14
  Speaker 8: very relieved to hear what they did. Um, that they
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: felt like initially it was going to be a lot worse.
• 19:19
  Speaker 8: You saw that he couldn't put any weight on the foot.
• 19:22
  Speaker 8: The whole team gathered together in prayer, like all the
• 19:25
  Speaker 8: signs that you see, you guys have been around practices
• 19:28
  Speaker 8: that when you see these things, you're like, this isn't
• 19:30
  Speaker 8: going to be good.
• 19:32
  Speaker 9: Um, uh, so, uh, I think right now they feel
• 19:39
  Speaker 9: like they did it about as well as they could have. Right.
• 19:43
  Speaker 8: So, I have a feeling he's going to have a
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: chance to play in that week one, but we'll see
• 19:49
  Speaker 8: how it goes.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: Works out.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: It is cut down week after these last preseason games,
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: and I'm sure your phone is going to be crazy
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: over the weekend. Do you get a sense, Adam? I mean,
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: do you get any clues on big names that may go?
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, or is it out of the blue left
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: field stuff for you? Do you ever have a sense
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: that something's coming?
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: You know, Vic, I think the ones that come out
• 20:17
  Speaker 8: of nowhere are the ones that are usually the best stories. Like,
• 20:19
  Speaker 8: there's always on weekend something that you didn't see coming. Like,
• 20:24
  Speaker 8: they cut him?
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Why? Yeah.
• 20:27
  Speaker 9: There'll be one or two of those. And I don't
• 20:32
  Speaker 9: know who that's going to be yet. Actually, it's funny
• 20:34
  Speaker 9: you say that. I was thinking, like... I mean, they're...
• 20:40
  Speaker 9: there are some names out there.
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: I'm like, would they, I don't want to say the name,
• 20:43
  Speaker 8: but I'm like, would the team consider cutting that guy?
• 20:46
  Speaker 9: Like, would they do that? Would they do that?
• 20:48
  Speaker 8: And again, I haven't even seen it or heard it. Um,
• 20:51
  Speaker 8: but it's always going to be, there's always going to be, uh,
• 20:56
  Speaker 8: something that comes up.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Why did the league decide to go to one day,
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: one cut down day?
• 21:03
  Speaker 9: Well, they, they, it used to be three. Then they do. And, um,
• 21:12
  Speaker 9: I don't remember if last year. I think last year
• 21:17
  Speaker 9: was just 1-2.
• 21:18
  Speaker 6: It was, yeah. But it just seems you have some–
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: you said it's like you build a pond and you
• 21:23
  Speaker 6: just dump all the fish into the pond at one time.
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: If you're a pro personnel guy, you better mind your
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: P's and Q's. You better be all over every single
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: potentially cut guy around the league, should you not? That's crazy.
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: Of course.
• 21:39
  Speaker 8: No, I mean, to me, for personnel departments, to me,
• 21:43
  Speaker 8: this is about as busy as it gets other than
• 21:45
  Speaker 8: the few weeks leading up to the NFL draft. Because
• 21:48
  Speaker 8: there are 32 teams. Each one's releasing 37 players. I
• 21:52
  Speaker 8: think it's 1,184 players essentially are let go. The math
• 21:56
  Speaker 8: on it is through the roof. You have a chance
• 21:58
  Speaker 8: to go. You're not going to claim more than a
• 22:00
  Speaker 8: couple of guys if you even do that. You know, two, three,
• 22:02
  Speaker 8: four guys max. Even the worst teams in the league.
• 22:06
  Speaker 8: But there's a couple of guys just sitting out there
• 22:09
  Speaker 8: that can help your roster and the sharpest teams can
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: figure out, Oh, there might be a guy or two
• 22:14
  Speaker 8: that can help upgrade our team.
• 22:16
  Speaker 9: So that, that's, that's always helpful and beneficial.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: Adam Schefter, ESPN with us. Um, So we've seen the
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: Big Ten. They've come out and said, hey, if you
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: played in an NFL training camp, you cannot play in
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: the Big Ten. The SEC has sent out a statement
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: saying that we don't like this, but I don't see
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: anything official yet. Is there anything the NFL can do
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: for a Daquan Wright who was in camp and then
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: going back to college? Or is this all a college thing?
• 22:44
  Speaker 8: It's all such a new thing that it's a hard
• 22:46
  Speaker 8: question to answer because the NFL has to adjust because
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: here's a guy that was eligible for the draft, didn't
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: get drafted, went to a camp, going to get cut,
• 22:54
  Speaker 8: going to go back because of the rules. Now, after
• 22:57
  Speaker 8: this season, let's say he lights it up, he could
• 22:59
  Speaker 8: be in the draft next year, conceivably, right? So to me,
• 23:05
  Speaker 8: it's a situation where.
• 23:10
  Speaker 9: The rules are fluid.
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: And their new situations unfolding and the league has got
• 23:15
  Speaker 8: to adjust and we'll see how it works out here.
• 23:18
  Speaker 9: Uh, but I think it's all very new for everybody.
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: Do they have a concern that like, if you draft
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: somebody in the fifth round and you're like, Hey, you're
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: going to be on a practice squad that they might say, well, deuces,
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: I'll just head back to college then. Or is it,
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: if you're drafted, are you locked in? Do you know
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: the rule on that?
• 23:32
  Speaker 8: Well, the rules don't matter right now. I mean, the
• 23:36
  Speaker 8: rules are, the rules are do whatever you want and
• 23:38
  Speaker 8: go where it's going to be lucrative. And, You know,
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: it's unbelievable to me that a tight end could go
• 23:44
  Speaker 8: make more playing for LSU than he could make it
• 23:47
  Speaker 8: in the NFL right now. But that's where Daquan Wright
• 23:49
  Speaker 8: is at. And that's why he's agreed to go back
• 23:51
  Speaker 8: to LSU if he clears waivers at 4 o'clock today.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: Going back to that cut down day and what surprise
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: cuts may come up. Do you think there's a chance
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: that the Denver Broncos may cut Jared Stidham for LSU?
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Financial reasons. Maybe there's a trade opportunity. Maybe there's a
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: team out there that says, man, this guy has a
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: chance to start for us. We'll give him something. You
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: think that's a possibility this week?
• 24:15
  Speaker 9: I haven't heard that or thought that or anything. I'm
• 24:17
  Speaker 9: not looking. That's one of the ones that comes up
• 24:19
  Speaker 9: on Sunday. Like, whoa, I wasn't expecting this. Right. Um,
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: Why do you ask the question, Vic? What makes you
• 24:26
  Speaker 9: think that? I'm just curious. I know they like Sam Ellinger.
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: I know that, right?
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think it's going to happen, Adam. I
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: just think, you know, if there's one of those surprise moves,
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: that could be it. Only because they like Sam Ellinger
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: more than we think they do, that would be the
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: only reason.
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: And they could save like $ 4. 5 million by cutting Stidham.
• 24:46
  Speaker 9: But I think they like Stidham.
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I do too.
• 24:49
  Speaker 8: I think they're likes to them. So I, again, when
• 24:51
  Speaker 8: you asked me that, I'm not telling you it can't happen.
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: Anything always could. I haven't heard that, but could it like, again,
• 24:59
  Speaker 8: maybe I'm getting a text on Sunday. Hey, Broncos cut Jared.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 25:03
  Speaker 9: Okay. Didn't see that.
• 25:05
  Speaker 8: Like there's always, there's always a half dozen of those
• 25:10
  Speaker 8: on the final cut down day.
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: Adam Schefter, ESPN. Last thing for you. Have you had
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: the fantasy draft yet? Are you guys locked in or
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: is that coming next week?
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: My two fantasy drafts are two weeks from today. Tuesday,
• 25:25
  Speaker 8: September 6th, I believe. That Tuesday, the night before the
• 25:35
  Speaker 8: Patriots-Seahawks game. If you guys need anything that Tuesday, I
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: guess we'll be on that day at this time. But
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: please don't bother me that night.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: I was going to say, are you saving your, like,
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: here's a good sleeper pick until after your draft? Is
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: that what you're doing?
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: All right, so we can ask you after.
• 25:52
  Speaker 9: Here's the thing, in all honesty.
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: I have a tip sheet, a cheat sheet, so to speak,
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: coming out on ESPN this week, ESPN.com.
• 26:01
  Speaker 9: All the names I like are on that sheet. They
• 26:03
  Speaker 9: truly are.
• 26:04
  Speaker 8: But there are also a few extra names in there. Like,
• 26:07
  Speaker 8: I like them all, but there are some that I
• 26:09
  Speaker 8: really like on that sheet.
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: Okay, well, we've got to wait. We'll look forward, baby. Yeah,
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: we've got to wait for the actual tips here in
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: a couple weeks. We've got to wait for them.
• 26:16
  Speaker 9: No, no, no. All the names that I like are
• 26:19
  Speaker 9: on the sheet that's coming out this week on ESPN.com.

  Speaker 10: the sound bite that We play like the measure he
• 27:36
  Speaker 10: was talking about. That was when Sean Payton said he's
• 27:37
  Speaker 10: going to measure up to any head coach to see
• 27:39
  Speaker 10: if he could take him in a fight.
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: You remember that? Yeah.
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: How about we just like do good. Good. Good.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: Well, yesterday, I think in the afternoon show, they threw
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: the word indubitably out there. And some of the spellings
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: that came across the text line.
• 27:54
  Speaker 9: Remarkable.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: Like we went full hierarchy.
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: You can't throw an indubitably out. You can't do that.
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: That's impossible. That's not, you're making that up, right?
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: Oh, yes, spell this. In the six o'clock hour, it
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: was load.
• 28:08
  Speaker 10: No, Mosher, Cortland Sutton actually, I can't remember what question
• 28:14
  Speaker 10: he was asked, but he did answer by saying indubitably.
• 28:17
  Speaker 10: So that's why we played it.
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: I mean, it's a good word. It's just that you
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: can't expect average human beings on this planet to spell indubitably.
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: I couldn't.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: All right, Mosher, you're the one who used the word.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Spell pomegranate.
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: P-O-M... E-G-R-A-N. This is where it gets tough. T-E.
• 28:46
  Speaker 10: Oh, you were so close.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: Pomegranate.
• 28:49
  Speaker 6: A-T-E. A-T-E.
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: Jesus, God. You said pomegranate. Pomegranate.
• 28:55
  Speaker 10: Well, Mosher, how about this? We can make a keyword
• 28:57
  Speaker 10: of Sean Payton squeaking.
• 28:58
  Speaker 9: What?
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: Did you think they won the line of scrimmage and
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: that surprised you a little bit?
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: Well, that's okay. That'd be good.
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: How about that? Well, um, I, it's funny when Adam
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: says there's no rules.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: There are two civilizations that first came up with a
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: written word. The Sumerians were known for that, right? But
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: do you know here in the Americas, the early Mexicans
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: came up with their own verbiage, their own language. Way, way, way, way,
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: way back. Is that in that book that you're reading?
• 29:36
  Speaker 7: Huh?
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: Is that in that book that you're reading?
• 29:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: And yet, and yet. we still can't get a handle
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: on tortilla.
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: Tortititos.
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: Tacos?
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: The reporter, the Texas Tech reporter at the Big 12 conference.
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: Do you bandit to talk to talk to you?
• 29:57
  Speaker 6: Do we still have that? Do we? Stephen, he's on
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: the phone. Sorry.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Um, it's true. It's true.
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: I don't like how, how Vic reads a chapter from
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: a book and then just tried to slide it into
• 30:12
  Speaker 5: normal conversation.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, you're right. Because we haven't heard you on this
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: show talking about your presidential documentaries that you've been watching.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: On YouTube. So if you guys don't know why Stephen F.
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: Austin College got its name, let me tell you. It's
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: because when Mexico had control of Texas, they wanted American
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: settlers to go into this vast land that was unoccupied.
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: And Stephen F. Austin was the guy bringing Americans over.
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: And then they're like, way too many Americans. This isn't
• 30:38
  Speaker 5: what we liked. And you know what Americans did? Kept
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: on coming. And then you got to fight. Why? Texas
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: wanted independence. Bring in Sam Houston.
• 30:47
  Speaker 6: Well, then we get to a problem with the Alamo, bro.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: Sam Houston, though, and the Texas Rangers, I mean, moj.
• 30:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Do you realize how Pizarro and his troop of 600
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: people defeated an army of 80,000? Do you understand how
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: and why that worked? Germs had nothing to do with bravery, soldiering.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: Germs did it.
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: There was a lot of, you know, technical battle details
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: in that. They did mouse holing. That was one of
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: the things that was big. Blow through the side of
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: a building instead of, you know, walking through the middle
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: of a town. I mean, that's part of it.
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: The hell are you talking about?
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: I'm educating you. All right, you got it, Nelly. Go ahead.
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: Ask that question again, and I'm going to give you
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: the answer I want to give you.
• 31:33
  Speaker 8: So go ahead.
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: Texas Tech got fined for two TTOs.
• 31:36
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 31:41
  Speaker 5: The beginning of that clip, though, you guys remember? Ask
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: me that question again.
• 31:46
  Speaker 6: Go ahead.
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: Ask me that question again.
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: Ask that question again, and I'm going to give you
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: the answer I want to give you.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: So go ahead.
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: Texas Tech got fined for T-O's.
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: T-O's.
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: All right. Hey, by the way, who are the famous
• 32:04
  Speaker 6: people who died at the Alamo? Do you know? No. Well,
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: Davy Crockett's one of them. Not only was he a frontiersman,
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: he was also a congressman. And then went to Texas
• 32:16
  Speaker 6: to help and didn't make it. Jim Bowie, who invented
• 32:20
  Speaker 6: the Bowie knife. You've heard of a Bowie knife? Yes.
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: Sam Houston there? He was not there. No, he lived
• 32:26
  Speaker 6: until the middle of the Civil War, I think.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: What about Frank Cicerelli?
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Frank Cicerelli was there as part of the Italian
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: brigade to try and stop Santa Ana, yeah.
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Joe Caglione?
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Joe and Frank let the, hey, we got a
• 32:40
  Speaker 6: Santa Ana's over here, huh?
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: Let's go get their ass. Santa Ana had his leg
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: blown off. They buried it with full military garb. Did
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: you know that?
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: I did not know that.
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: And then during the Mexican-American War, he lost his little
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: peg leg in the middle of a battle by running
• 32:55
  Speaker 5: away like a coward.
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: How the hell did we get here?
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: Do you know there's a 7-Eleven right across the street
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: from the Alamo?
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: We have discussed this.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: As I said, there's a Little Caesars Pizza right outside
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: the Roman College.
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: Dude, I'm dead serious, man. Fuddruckers has got to be
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: under by now, right? Does Fuddruckers still exist?
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: I hate when anybody says the name of that restaurant. Why?
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: Because it just sounds like it shouldn't be a name.
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: Is it? I got Fuddruckers San Antonio. Hang on.
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: Texas Tech got fined over tortillos.
• 33:32
  Speaker 6: All Fuddruckers locations in San Antonio are permanently closed. I
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: knew it.
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: See ya!
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: See ya!
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: What did Coach Prime, how did he pronounce tortillos? Is
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: that what he pronounced them?
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: No, he called them tacos.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Tacos? Tortillos?
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: Tortillos? Tortillos?
• 33:54
  Speaker 9: Tacos?
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: Tacos? I can't get the visual out of my head
• 33:57
  Speaker 5: of just salsas and cheeses and stuff flying.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: I'm so hungry right now.
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: Chorizo, just flying over to the 20-yard line. All right,
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: back after this.
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: Marshall Lombardi and Kane here on this beautiful... Is it Monday?
• 34:12
  Speaker 6: It is Monday. Why is everything just... No, today's Tuesday.
• 34:17
  Speaker 10: Today is Tuesday.
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: Jeez Louise.
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: Today would be Tuesday. Would be Tuesday.
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: Why am I losing track of the days, man? Why
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: is this happening?
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: You know, because summer's wrapping up. The season is right
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: around the corner.
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: Today's Friday.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: I know what you're going through. It's like, okay, here
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: we are. I don't know about you guys, but you
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: wait through the winter for summer to come, and you
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: can't wait, and you can't wait. And then when summer
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: arrives and you're in the middle of it, and then
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: it wraps up so quickly. It's just like, boom, it's over.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: And then you're back to winter.
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: You know what, I think if there's one thing I've
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: learned today is I want all owners to sound like this.
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: We're going to win.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: We're going to win and win it all.
• 35:01
  Speaker 5: What if that was Penner when he first took over
• 35:03
  Speaker 5: the Broncos?
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: Well, it was, that was, what's his face?
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: That's the Jose Feliciano's wife.
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: Kwanzaa Brown? Jones, Kwanzaa Jones.
• 35:15
  Speaker 6: That was Barry Switzer when he took over the Cowboys.
• 35:18
  Speaker 10: We're going to win.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: We're going to win and win it all.
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: Find the Barry Switzer. We got to win it all, baby.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: Well, didn't Steve Ballmer do something similar?
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: Steve Ballmer was next. The one that he had when
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: he was.
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that. That scream.
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: Wait, that woo. That wasn't from the Clippers press conference.
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: I think that was them at Microsoft unveiling like a
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: new product, right?
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that dude looks. That dude looks so awkward.
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: When he said, I love this company!
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: That's a different level of scream.
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and then he got that, of course.
• 36:01
  Speaker 6: I can't believe that nothing..
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: That nothing happened? I just, I can't... I can.
• 36:09
  Speaker 6: What did you think, Moe?
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: You thought they were going to kick him out.
• 36:11
  Speaker 9: Of the league?
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: What did you think was going to happen?
• 36:13
  Speaker 6: I don't... If what's alleged is true, it's just such
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: a blatant... in your face violation of everything sacred regarding
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: fair play in the NBA, if it's true.
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: Okay, speaking of weird rules, can I tell you something
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: that happened to me yesterday? And it was a millisecond, okay?
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: It was just a millisecond. But it's more than zero.
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: I came across a tweet that had an actual link
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: to an On3 article, you know, the big recruiting website,
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: this transfer portal. It said, Justin Fields is transferring to
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: Texas Tech. And I knew it was parodying. But for
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: a millisecond.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: You almost got got.
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: No, no, no. Didn't almost get got. For a millisecond,
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: I was like, well, can that happen?
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: Like, could, feasibly.
• 36:59
  Speaker 6: Feasibly.
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: Could Justin Fields go back to college at this stage?
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: Could he find a judge who says, you're a good kid,
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: and he gives him eligibility, and he goes and plays
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: college football again? There's a 47-year-old priest playing for San
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: Jose City College.
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: Is there a guy who got cut from the NFL,
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: you know, and let's say he's 31 and he can't
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: find a free agent gig? Could he go back to
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: college and play college football?
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: Okay, let's say this, Vic. Trevin Brazil sees the writing
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: on the wall that he might be on the NBA roster,
• 37:33
  Speaker 5: but he's not going to play this year, right?
• 37:37
  Speaker 8: Could he?
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: I think he's already utilized all five years of his
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: college eligibility.
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: I don't know.
• 37:43
  Speaker 5: Are you sure there's not a hardship?
• 37:45
  Speaker 6: There's got to be guys.
• 37:46
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 37:46
  Speaker 6: There's got to be guys in the NFL who played,
• 37:48
  Speaker 6: let's say four years of college football, or they were
• 37:51
  Speaker 6: there for four years.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: I played one year. What if Cooper said, ah, screw it.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: I'm going back to college.
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: Well, he's, he's way more money than NBA anyway, but
• 37:58
  Speaker 6: I'm just saying, what if you, you know, you had
• 38:01
  Speaker 6: a red shirt one year, but you didn't utilize it.
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: Now you have this year and you can go back
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: and play college, play for Ohio state.
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: And it's just weird guys. I just thought about something.
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: This is, you know what, they should put me on
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: payroll over in Boulder. I swear to God, these ideas
• 38:17
  Speaker 5: that I have for the school.
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: Grand ideas?
• 38:20
  Speaker 5: Deion broke into college football by being the first. I
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: will give him this. He was the grandfather. He was
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: the spearhead of, I make my roster through the transfer portal,
• 38:31
  Speaker 5: not by high school recruiting. And everybody said, Deion. That
• 38:36
  Speaker 5: can't work in college football. Two years later, everybody's doing
• 38:40
  Speaker 5: the same thing.
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: He was ahead of the time.
• 38:42
  Speaker 5: It took an advantage that Deion had initially, which is
• 38:45
  Speaker 5: I'm just going to ravage the portal. And then everybody
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: started doing it and it got watered down for CU.
• 38:51
  Speaker 5: So CU, we have a new strategy. Go get Justin
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: Fields and try it. Just find judges in Boulder that
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: are like, you know what?
• 39:02
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 39:03
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: So funny, I just thought about this. Trey Lance barely
• 39:08
  Speaker 5: played in college. Trey Lance, you're going to go to
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: CU and you're going to be their quarterback. You might
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: as well before everything starts to shut down.
• 39:16
  Speaker 6: Well, there's a kid in college basketball who played pro basketball.
• 39:20
  Speaker 6: So what's the delineation?
• 39:23
  Speaker 5: Go do it. Get yourself a five-year NFL vet and
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: put them on your college roster.
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: I'm dead serious.
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: Welcome the brand new number one wide out for the
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: CU buffs. Odell Beckham Jr. You know what I mean?
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: What's to stop you? Nothing right now. Might as well
• 39:45
  Speaker 5: get your kicks. I'm genius. Put me on payroll.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: College football is a day-to-day gig now. Isn't it crazy?
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: Day-to-day rules change, rules bend, judges show up, make new rules.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: I've never seen a day-to-day sport like college sports. It's
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: changing on the week, by the week. I mean, the
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: SEC announces yesterday it does not want to allow NFL
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: players to come back and play college ball. They didn't
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: specify how they'd enforce it. They said they didn't want
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: to allow it. Today, the Big Ten says, we're just
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: not going to allow it.
• 40:25
  Speaker 6: You can't.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: So the Big Ten took it a step further. And
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: so now all the other conferences fall in line. It's
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: a wait and see. Like, it's almost as if the
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: SEC threw the fish line out there, right? And they said,
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: let's see, is anybody else going to join us? Oh, okay,
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: Big Ten, thank you. And now they have to sort
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: of abide by all of this. Until and unless a
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: judge shows up and says, well, you guys can't do that.
• 40:46
  Speaker 6: Sorry, he's a good kid.
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: Well, that's the thing. The texture says bolder judges would
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: never help see you football. You don't need judges. You
• 40:55
  Speaker 5: need a judge.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: That's all you need.
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: You need one guy who's going to be like, I'm retired.
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: I don't care.
• 41:03
  Speaker 5: Throw me a couple bucks.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Mosher, it's funny you bring that up, and I've said
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: this so many times. Administration means as much to the
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: success of a sports program as anything. And when I
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: say administration... When Coach Mack was winning and he won
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: a national title and he had that era of the 90s,
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: who was the president of the University of Colorado back then?
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Do you remember that person's name?
• 41:28
  Speaker 6: Was it Gordon?
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: Gordon Gee.
• 41:29
