Speaker 1: Jaguars owner Shot Con part of the ed piece that
0:03
Speaker 1: ran yesterday. Let's go to the phone line now and
0:05
Speaker 1: welcome in prior of the Jaguars left tackle Tony Bosell. A, Tony,
0:09
Speaker 1: it's been a little bit good afternoon. How are you.
0:12
Speaker 1: I'm doing good. I'm good to talk to you again. UM. Yeah,
0:16
Speaker 1: it's always good to talk to you, my friend, Same
0:19
Speaker 1: to you. UM, things have have changed a bit since
0:22
Speaker 1: we've spoken the last couple of weeks. It is, Um,
0:28
Speaker 1: everything is front and center nationally, and it should be that.
0:32
Speaker 1: That's the way things have been, especially the last week
0:34
Speaker 1: or so. And now you're seeing teams around the NFL
0:38
Speaker 1: start to make statements. You're seeing players around the National
0:41
Speaker 1: Football League going out on their social media pages or
0:44
Speaker 1: are going out in the communities where they reside and
0:47
Speaker 1: and marching and protesting and whatever they feel necessary. Um,
0:52
Speaker 1: this is obviously the number one storyline, not only in
0:56
Speaker 1: the NFL right now, but in our country. And I
0:59
Speaker 1: don't think in our generation, certainly my generation, you're not
1:02
Speaker 1: that much older than I am. We haven't seen anything
1:05
Speaker 1: close to this type of response for something like this. Well,
1:10
Speaker 1: I mean, the closest reminds me of when I was
1:12
Speaker 1: at USC in the l a riot that Rodney King
1:16
Speaker 1: uh uh uh police brutality that ended up the riots
1:23
Speaker 1: actually broke out after the police officers were let off
1:26
Speaker 1: and found innocent, UM, and the city basically was in
1:29
Speaker 1: chaos for several days. National guards be brought in. So
1:33
Speaker 1: this is very similar. That the difference is while that
1:37
Speaker 1: had sprinklingss and other communities around the country, it was
1:41
Speaker 1: largely contained the Los Angeles. UM. This has gone nationwide. UM,
1:46
Speaker 1: there's a national response. UM. And by the way, there
1:49
Speaker 1: should be. UM. It's enough and enough. You cannot, um
1:55
Speaker 1: what happened to George Floyd Uh is you know cannot
1:59
Speaker 1: happen and our country UM now listen. UH probably the
2:04
Speaker 1: first to tell you that the vast majority of police
2:06
Speaker 1: officers are great beings that do an amazing job to
2:09
Speaker 1: serve and protect our community. But that's unfortunately, that's not
2:13
Speaker 1: the story that we're talking about right now. We shouldn't be.
2:16
Speaker 1: It's the it's the abuse of power. UM. It's it's
2:20
Speaker 1: being done to a uh, an African American man who UM.
2:25
Speaker 1: Regardless of if you want to argue with as if
2:27
Speaker 1: there was a non violent crime or not. I don't
2:29
Speaker 1: care what it was he did not and that you know,
2:32
Speaker 1: and there's a time and this time now that we
2:35
Speaker 1: as a country come together, Um, we listen to each other, UM,
2:39
Speaker 1: we have empathy for each other. Um, and we start
2:43
Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to move forward in a
2:46
Speaker 1: positive way. And uh. And I think that's what these
2:49
Speaker 1: protests are about. And its people saying enough enough, and
2:53
Speaker 1: we're not going to stand by and allow this to
2:55
Speaker 1: happen any longer. It's pride of the jaguars left tackling that.
2:59
Speaker 1: That's gonna going to be the challenge. I think everybody
3:01
Speaker 1: wants answers, They want change, and they want it now. Well,
3:05
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be now. It's going to be in time,
3:08
Speaker 1: and there's no answer to win. The time frame will
3:11
Speaker 1: be when there's change and answers. I mean, that's that's
3:13
Speaker 1: the real difficult part of what's going on right now. Um.
3:17
Speaker 1: But this is the beginning of that. Where the end
3:20
Speaker 1: is we don't really know. Well in this I mean
3:24
Speaker 1: in our country, this is something that started, you know,
3:27
Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds years ago, generations and generations ago, and
3:31
Speaker 1: has it improved over the years, especially since the civil
3:35
Speaker 1: rights movement led by Martin Luther King Jr. Absolutely, it's improved,
3:38
Speaker 1: but it's not where it needs to be. And we
3:42
Speaker 1: took a step backwards and what we saw and and
3:46
Speaker 1: that's not okay. And so we need need to get
3:49
Speaker 1: it needs to be a conscious effort of everybody to
3:53
Speaker 1: work together to UM make sure that people are treated equally. Uh,
3:58
Speaker 1: there's equity in the system. UM and that UH never
4:03
Speaker 1: should a human being be judged or be treated differently
4:06
Speaker 1: because of the color of their skin. And I said this,
4:09
Speaker 1: I said a couple of times now there's like no
4:11
Speaker 1: place in our world, our country. So where about our
4:14
Speaker 1: country where we live. UM, like anyone thinks they're better
4:19
Speaker 1: than somebody else because of their skin color is It's
4:22
Speaker 1: just ridiculous to me. And that's there's no place for that.
4:26
Speaker 1: And we need to rid that. And it starts by
4:28
Speaker 1: number one. It starts by leaders UM in the community,
4:32
Speaker 1: which the NFL teams are in NFL players are and
4:35
Speaker 1: owners are and coaches aren't making statements and making sure
4:38
Speaker 1: that when we everyone goes there apart. It also starts
4:41
Speaker 1: in the home of mothers and fathers of communicating their kids.
4:45
Speaker 1: I mean, I know I've had very serious conversations with
4:48
Speaker 1: my children. UM, we've always started to raise them the
4:51
Speaker 1: right way and the understanding, the respect everybody, even if
4:55
Speaker 1: they you know, no matter how they look, and even
4:58
Speaker 1: if they disagree with them, and that you might have
5:01
Speaker 1: a disagreement of a major issue doesn't mean to say
5:05
Speaker 1: you should respect them any less or treat them less
5:08
Speaker 1: or anything else. That we are to love and treat
5:10
Speaker 1: everyone respect um. And and and so those are the
5:14
Speaker 1: conversations we need to be having as fathers and mothers
5:17
Speaker 1: with our children because that's where it starts, and that's
5:20
Speaker 1: where the change starts. And obviously there needs to be
5:23
Speaker 1: I mean, people smarter than you and I JP need
5:25
Speaker 1: to be looking at the whole system. You know, the
5:27
Speaker 1: legal system. I mean, you know what legislation, legislator, legislative
5:33
Speaker 1: changes can we make, um to make sure it's equitable
5:36
Speaker 1: for all, um. But for us as leaders in our
5:39
Speaker 1: homes and our communities and businesses and football teams, it's
5:43
Speaker 1: about having honest, open communications, listening to each other, UM,
5:48
Speaker 1: trying to walk in each other's shoes. And that's very difficult.
5:50
Speaker 1: Like I cannot comprehend what it means to be a
5:52
Speaker 1: black man because I'm not and that's okay. But I
5:55
Speaker 1: can have compassion and I can listen and try to
5:58
Speaker 1: understand and uh, and that's what it's gonna take. And
6:01
Speaker 1: it's a long road. I mean, this is not a
6:04
Speaker 1: quick fix. This is not something that you wake up
6:07
Speaker 1: and it's just over and everything's fine. Um. And I
6:11
Speaker 1: think what you have to do, you have to see change, needs,
6:14
Speaker 1: have to see progress of us going in the right
6:17
Speaker 1: direction as a community. Tony Baselli with US Jaguars Happy Hour.
6:22
Speaker 1: J P. Shatrick with you as well. It's Thursday, June four. Um.
6:26
Speaker 1: The the op ed piece from shot Con there. We
6:28
Speaker 1: we just read a snippet of it. The full piece
6:31
Speaker 1: available on Jaguars dot com and some other media outlets.
6:35
Speaker 1: You know, he goes through his background coming into the
6:37
Speaker 1: United States, what he's seen through his own eyes, and
6:40
Speaker 1: then the next step. I think that made that totally
6:44
Speaker 1: different from any other team's announcements is what steps he's
6:49
Speaker 1: trying to figure out to move forward on this thing.
6:53
Speaker 1: And you know he's something's going to happen with Mr
6:55
Speaker 1: Connie's gonna talk with the players, he said, and see
6:58
Speaker 1: what they want to do as a as a group.
7:00
Speaker 1: I think with with him anything. Anytime he says something's
7:05
Speaker 1: going to happen, it's going to happen. It's just a
7:07
Speaker 1: matter of figure out what the next step is. I
7:10
Speaker 1: found the piece very thoughtful, um, in depth and the
7:15
Speaker 1: best one I think that that we've seen from any
7:17
Speaker 1: team in the NFL. Well, listen, we all have you know,
7:22
Speaker 1: we're all shaped from where we come from and the
7:25
Speaker 1: families we were raised in, the communities were raised in it.
7:28
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you where the great things we digressed
7:30
Speaker 1: for a second. But I love about professional football and
7:33
Speaker 1: being an athlete that I was exposed and around and
7:36
Speaker 1: we're closely with people who came from different places tonight
7:39
Speaker 1: it and we're raised differently and experienced different culture. To me,
7:43
Speaker 1: I love that that's refreshing, the like I like being
7:46
Speaker 1: around different people and experience in trying to understand it
7:50
Speaker 1: and in learning about me and me learning about them,
7:53
Speaker 1: because we're all we're all different, I mean, And who
7:55
Speaker 1: would want it any other way? Like? Who wants to
7:58
Speaker 1: all be the same? That's boring, um, And so I mean.
8:02
Speaker 1: I told the story of going to USC from Boulder, Colorado,
8:05
Speaker 1: where my high school had a handful of African American
8:08
Speaker 1: students to USC in the middle of that, just outside
8:12
Speaker 1: downtown Los Angeles, in a locker room of a college
8:15
Speaker 1: football team with a majority of the people are African Americans,
8:19
Speaker 1: and to learn and to experience that and be around
8:21
Speaker 1: it in the community I lived in UH where USC
8:24
Speaker 1: is located. I thought it was fascinating and I learned
8:26
Speaker 1: so much that I grew and I loved it. And
8:28
Speaker 1: it goes throughout the NFL. We learned to work together
8:31
Speaker 1: and to understand each other and to respect each other. Um.
8:34
Speaker 1: And I say all that because the statement that Sean
8:37
Speaker 1: Kohmen made is shaped by his experience as a UH
8:42
Speaker 1: coming from Pakistan, as a young man, as a Muslim American. UM.
8:46
Speaker 1: I mean you think back being a Muslim around UH
8:50
Speaker 1: nine eleven, how difficult that was in the strain and
8:53
Speaker 1: the and the Bigot three that we saw happen, and
8:56
Speaker 1: because of people being afraid and scared and and everything else.
9:00
Speaker 1: Because that's where that a lot of that comes from
9:02
Speaker 1: a lot of times, his fear of the unknown and
9:05
Speaker 1: being scared, and and for the way that he has
9:08
Speaker 1: responded in the way that he has found UM a
9:12
Speaker 1: pathway to be just uber successful UM is one great
9:18
Speaker 1: you know story and test money, but also about UM
9:22
Speaker 1: his passion around of making sure that there is equality
9:27
Speaker 1: and there is equity in the system. And and you're right,
9:31
Speaker 1: I have a little doubt that dot Com will put
9:34
Speaker 1: his energy and his resources and the old saying his
9:38
Speaker 1: money where you know his mouth is because of what
9:41
Speaker 1: he said, because that's who he is and that's how
9:43
Speaker 1: I mean he is UM. I can only imagine what
9:47
Speaker 1: he has gone through and seen its coming over here
9:49
Speaker 1: at sixteen years of age with not much in his
9:51
Speaker 1: back pocket as a student, and to work his way
9:54
Speaker 1: through and all the different challenges as you know, coming
9:57
Speaker 1: from another another country in a Muslim American. All the
10:01
Speaker 1: things you talked about, the challenges and what he has
10:03
Speaker 1: overcome has shaped him and that's why it's so powerful
10:06
Speaker 1: and I think it'll be it would be very powerful
10:08
Speaker 1: what he will do UM. And I thought the op
10:10
Speaker 1: ed was powerful. Tony Boselli with us, let's talk a
10:14
Speaker 1: little ball Tony um coaching And you know that's that's
10:17
Speaker 1: kind of back of mind for everybody this week, everything
10:20
Speaker 1: going on. But JP, I think that it's back of
10:22
Speaker 1: mind for multiple reasons we had. I mean, obviously because
10:26
Speaker 1: with four, you know, in the forefront and should be
10:29
Speaker 1: is what has happened and the awakening that it has
10:32
Speaker 1: caused in all of us, and because I think it's
10:36
Speaker 1: easy for a lot of us to take it for
10:38
Speaker 1: granted because we don't experience them, and not because you know,
10:43
Speaker 1: we want to or we feel that's okay or anything else.
10:46
Speaker 1: Just you know, life goes fast and you forget about
10:48
Speaker 1: and this is like a shock to the system and
10:51
Speaker 1: it's shocking that it happened, and it's shocking that it
10:53
Speaker 1: can happen in our country. So that kind of takes
10:56
Speaker 1: the forefront. But even more than ever, because of the
10:59
Speaker 1: pandemic in the coronavirus, football has been so secondary outside
11:04
Speaker 1: that short weekend of the draft where we kind of
11:07
Speaker 1: gotta live like everything was normal, even though it's virtually
11:11
Speaker 1: even you know, football has kind of been how do
11:13
Speaker 1: we do it in spite of the coronavirus. Well, now
11:16
Speaker 1: you have this other, you know, the national story around
11:20
Speaker 1: what we're dealing with and what we should be dealing with,
11:24
Speaker 1: and so it's hard because you're still not gonna know,
11:26
Speaker 1: you're gonna talk about this. Players are still not coming in.
11:28
Speaker 1: It's just coaches UM, my big question, Dug and everyone,
11:33
Speaker 1: like what do you even do? Like why are you
11:34
Speaker 1: coming in? Why can't you just do it at your house?
11:37
Speaker 1: I mean it's zoom. You have all the technology or
11:40
Speaker 1: whatever technology, Microsoft Team, whatever you may use. Um, I
11:45
Speaker 1: wonder what is the purpose of coming in as the
11:49
Speaker 1: staff if your players can't be there? Apparently the league
11:53
Speaker 1: is allowing up to one people in each facility starting tomorrow. No, no,
11:59
Speaker 1: no players. Um, that's my point. So what's the purpose?
12:02
Speaker 1: I guess my question would be because you know, I'll
12:05
Speaker 1: just like even to my job at often working in healthcare,
12:10
Speaker 1: I mean, what's the technology today in this world? I'm
12:13
Speaker 1: just as productive, maybe more productive, because you're not wasting time,
12:18
Speaker 1: you know, shooting the breeze the fellas in the office. Um,
12:24
Speaker 1: because you're just grinding one meeting to the next. And
12:26
Speaker 1: I imagine that there's the level of productivity did not
12:30
Speaker 1: drop because coaches were at home. Um, that'd be my guests.
12:36
Speaker 1: And so I'd love to be great to sit down
12:38
Speaker 1: with du with Dave and Duck to find out, you know,
12:43
Speaker 1: what what this looked like and how is their productivity
12:45
Speaker 1: compared to a normal year. Well, Doug said in a
12:47
Speaker 1: conference called last week that the the the happiest folks
12:51
Speaker 1: to hear that they're going back to work is yeah,
12:57
Speaker 1: that's true. Now, maybe that's why they should live. Just
13:00
Speaker 1: of them, I mean their relationships and their families. I
13:02
Speaker 1: know my family will be just fine and happy when
13:04
Speaker 1: I can get back on a plane and travel again,
13:06
Speaker 1: no doubt. Um. Tony, Hey, good stuff man. Good to
13:09
Speaker 1: talk to you as always, and thanks for the insight
13:12
Speaker 1: and the commentary to that we appreciate. JP. Thanks, it's
13:16
Speaker 1: good to come on. And I do miss seeing everybody.
13:19
Speaker 1: That's one thing. Would be fun to get back down
13:21
Speaker 1: there and to see everyone. And obviously I know you're
13:24
Speaker 1: no different. You know we need to be, you know,
13:28
Speaker 1: praying about praying for our beauties and being active and
13:33
Speaker 1: communicating and uh and uh and making sure we listened
13:38
Speaker 1: during this time and try to make real change. Tony,
13:41

Speaker 1: Khan op ed that ran yesterday in different media outlets
18:47
Speaker 1: and on Jaguars dot com of course through the Jaguars
18:50
Speaker 1: PR department. Second part we'll get to here. Quote in Jacksonville,
18:55
Speaker 1: I frequently meet with Jaguars players to better understand their
18:58
Speaker 1: experiences and concerns. I can only imagine the remainder of
19:00
Speaker 1: emotions today in the wake of all that is unfoldered
19:03
Speaker 1: in twenty I know they are hurting. It also committed
19:06
Speaker 1: to doing good in Jacksonville, in the communities where they
19:08
Speaker 1: were raised, and will always consider home. Mindful of this,
19:11
Speaker 1: I will listen to the players in the days ahead
19:13
Speaker 1: with an exceptionally keen ear so we can work with
19:16
Speaker 1: them to make the transition from conversation to actionable plans
19:19
Speaker 1: in the name of lasting change. And quote that's from
19:22
Speaker 1: jagson Owner shot con and the op ed piece that
19:24
Speaker 1: ran yesterday, And if you follow have met or have
19:29
Speaker 1: been around or been involved with any capacity. Shot con
19:34
Speaker 1: you know that those aren't just words on a page.
19:37
Speaker 1: He's gonna follow through and and do what he says.
19:40
Speaker 1: He always does. Jaguar's senior writer, John Osier always does
19:45
Speaker 1: what he says as well. He's with us now, John,
19:47
Speaker 1: Good afternoon. First, who was the first guest, Tony Tony Boselli.
19:54
Speaker 1: You might have heard of him. Okay, then I've got
19:57
Speaker 1: I've got an easy, easy twenty minutes. I can outdo
20:01
Speaker 1: coming good God. Yeah, yeah, the fat piece I thought,
20:11
Speaker 1: and he goes to that saying was you know, fantastic
20:14
Speaker 1: from the heart and a fantastic right word, but well
20:17
Speaker 1: thought out. And you know, I thought a contrast, maybe
20:22
Speaker 1: a lot of things that have been put out that
20:26
Speaker 1: maybe a lot of them and if obligatory is the
20:30
Speaker 1: right word, but a lot of them said the same
20:32
Speaker 1: thing over and over again, and I'm sure that has
20:34
Speaker 1: been the heart as well. But Shot just yeah, I
20:39
Speaker 1: think he has a more personal story then maybe a
20:44
Speaker 1: lot of corporations that have put out statement, if that
20:47
Speaker 1: makes any sense. I think his was clearly uh based
20:51
Speaker 1: on a lot of his experience, and as you said,
20:54
Speaker 1: if it's if you've been around Shot, you realize that
21:00
Speaker 1: he's not. I don't know how it always comes across
21:03
Speaker 1: when he's had a podium JP, but you've been around
21:06
Speaker 1: him when he's told, when he talks, and when he
21:09
Speaker 1: he discussed his ideas and uh, issues like this are
21:14
Speaker 1: important to him, and uh, I think that maybe came
21:18
Speaker 1: across in the outfit. He's more than maybe it does
21:23
Speaker 1: when he's answering questions in front of a camera. Just
21:25
Speaker 1: because he had more time and the words, you know,
21:33
Speaker 1: maybe he was able to choose them and really think
21:35
Speaker 1: about what he wanted to stay in this And I
21:37
Speaker 1: think that's why it sort of rang true for a
21:39
Speaker 1: lot of people. I got a lot of positive feet
21:40
Speaker 1: or positive a lot of feedback from readers saying that
21:44
Speaker 1: it really touched them. John Osan was the Shaguars dot
21:47
Speaker 1: Com senior writer and unless the other like I just
21:50
Speaker 1: mentioned a second ago, John, if he says he's gonna
21:53
Speaker 1: sit down with players and figure out the next steps
21:56
Speaker 1: for change and all that it's going to happen, um
22:00
Speaker 1: yea what the answer is, we may not know yet,
22:02
Speaker 1: but all that's going to happen. Everything that OpEd piece,
22:06
Speaker 1: and you know he's gonna follow up to a tea. Yeah,
22:09
Speaker 1: it really will. And you know, and again I think
22:12
Speaker 1: JP being around the team, you and I have had
22:16
Speaker 1: opportunity to talk to Shod even when we're not holding
22:19
Speaker 1: the microphone. And I don't know that I don't know
22:23
Speaker 1: that all fans think maybe some fan to have I've got.
22:25
Speaker 1: I've gotten emails over the years from people who have
22:28
Speaker 1: met Shot out and who's had conversations with when he's
22:33
Speaker 1: trying to figure things out about the jag H. You know,
22:37
Speaker 1: because you don't get to his station in life without
22:42
Speaker 1: listening to people. And whenever I've had conversations with him
22:47
Speaker 1: about anything, be it on the website, be at the
22:51
Speaker 1: nature of my job, whatever. Now, when Shod Khan listens JP,
22:56
Speaker 1: he listens to a point where it's it's almost intimidating
23:02
Speaker 1: to a degree because he is listening to you. And
23:06
Speaker 1: I've been in conversations where he does not want to hear,
23:10
Speaker 1: uh what he thinks. Somebody in my position, which is
23:14
Speaker 1: way down the line of the team is going to
23:17
Speaker 1: quote Stay two and owner just to get other the conversations.
23:20
Speaker 1: That makes any sense. I think you've had the same
23:22
Speaker 1: kind of conversations when he asked you a question. He
23:24
Speaker 1: wants an answer that's real, that cuts through any cliche
23:28
Speaker 1: or whatever you might call it. And you know, I
23:33
Speaker 1: can only imagine I've not talked with about this issue,
23:37
Speaker 1: but my guess is when he talks to players about this,
23:39
Speaker 1: he is gonna want to hear real thing, not what
23:43
Speaker 1: they think he wants to hear. Is probably a better
23:45
Speaker 1: way of putting it. So you know, um, I'm not
23:49
Speaker 1: sure if I'm describing that right and free to sort
23:53
Speaker 1: of help me out, to push me in the right direction,
23:55
Speaker 1: but I've gotten that feeling in conversation with Shot about
23:57
Speaker 1: thinking before. I've got to think that he's bringing that
24:00
Speaker 1: a hundred percent in this situation. When he talks to people,
24:04
Speaker 1: he is gonna want to know what's real, What do
24:07
Speaker 1: you think can be done? How can we maybe get
24:10
Speaker 1: that message or do something real across? So, uh, yeah,
24:15
Speaker 1: the eight hundred words of every rote yesterday, he's not
24:18
Speaker 1: lip service on that, frind. He wants those to be
24:21
Speaker 1: real and he wants the action to fall and if
24:22
Speaker 1: it's not real, it's onto the next conversation. That's the
24:26
Speaker 1: way his time, his timing works, because if you to
24:30
Speaker 1: a point where again it can be intimidating talking to us.
24:34
Speaker 1: He is a no nonsense individual. Uh, and you know
24:39
Speaker 1: it probably goes withnout saying he's brilliant, So when he
24:45
Speaker 1: wants to find out something about an issue, you better
24:48
Speaker 1: try to have something to say that as the conversation
24:51
Speaker 1: and his radar goes down pretty quick if it's not real.
24:55
Speaker 1: So you know, I guess I'm just going through all
24:58
Speaker 1: this to try to explain to fan and when he
25:01
Speaker 1: talks about stuff like this it is not a in
25:04
Speaker 1: one ear out the other situation. He's going to try
25:07
Speaker 1: to absorb it and try to turn that into action.
25:10
Speaker 1: John Ozan with US Jaguars dot Com Senior Writers Jaguars
25:13
Speaker 1: Happy Hour on Thursday, June four. Glad you're along with
25:16
Speaker 1: us this afternoon. You know this is obviously this whole offseason, John,
25:20
Speaker 1: is one we've never experienced before. Everybody's at home, and well,
25:25
Speaker 1: we've experienced that before in the lockout, I guess, but um,
25:29
Speaker 1: with the meetings virtually and and the way the league
25:32
Speaker 1: has operated over the last two to three months, I
25:34
Speaker 1: don't think we've seen that. And the question is going
25:37
Speaker 1: to be moving ahead here. It sounds like the coaches
25:39
Speaker 1: are allowed back in tomorrow. Um, and then there's questions
25:45
Speaker 1: whether there will be any on field work in the
25:47
Speaker 1: off season program. The feeling I guess that we've kind
25:50
Speaker 1: of had is that, how no, it's already June, and
25:54
Speaker 1: you know you'd have to have a plan of attack
25:56
Speaker 1: to get those guys back in the building, and that's
25:59
Speaker 1: just not a feeling. So add this to the mix,
26:02
Speaker 1: and you know, leadership for this football team has had
26:07
Speaker 1: to juggle a lot. They're having to juggle this as well,
26:10
Speaker 1: which is fine that that's the way it should be
26:12
Speaker 1: right now, but that is a lot going on without
26:16
Speaker 1: any football happening at all, John, it might be the busiest, um,
26:21
Speaker 1: most important office, the most important offseason we've had in
26:24
Speaker 1: the well, it's strangest and uh the most packed with
26:31
Speaker 1: uh you know, you know situations that really uh forced
26:37
Speaker 1: promote you to think. You know, COVID obviously made you
26:42
Speaker 1: think about a lot of things. Uh, this situation, if
26:45
Speaker 1: you're not thinking about it, you know, your tone deaf
26:48
Speaker 1: and you know you're not checked in with the world.
26:50
Speaker 1: So uh, you know, I don't know exactly how to
26:54
Speaker 1: predict what the current unrest and how players the conversations
27:00
Speaker 1: that are going on how that's gonna play out. I
27:03
Speaker 1: I am sure that they will do something. The players
27:08
Speaker 1: the team. I say they meaning a journalist covering the team.
27:12
Speaker 1: You know, there's no doubt they're gonna do something. I
27:14
Speaker 1: don't know what that's going to entail. So if I
27:17
Speaker 1: could talk separately in terms of what the football stuff
27:21
Speaker 1: is going to be, you know, I can't imagine there
27:25
Speaker 1: being football players practicing until training camp. Maybe I'm wrong
27:30
Speaker 1: on that just doesn't feel that way. I think the
27:32
Speaker 1: coaches going back is it is probably can be seen
27:38
Speaker 1: more as it's a good sign, a good step towards
27:42
Speaker 1: the concept of football in the fall. I don't know
27:46
Speaker 1: that much is going to change in terms of communication
27:48
Speaker 1: with players until they're actually back in the building. You know,
27:52
Speaker 1: I think they have I would guess they have figured
27:54
Speaker 1: out a way to communicate through zoom where they feel
27:57
Speaker 1: like that is going strongly, meaning you know, us as
28:01
Speaker 1: a department JP, we've had our meeting. At first, it
28:04
Speaker 1: was kind of clunky, and now when we meet, we
28:07
Speaker 1: get our information out there and I feel like we're communicating.
28:10
Speaker 1: I'm sure coaches and players have hit that point, but
28:12
Speaker 1: I don't know how much the news that coaches are
28:14
Speaker 1: in the building is going to change preparation until the
28:17
Speaker 1: players are actually back in the building. So uh, but
28:21
Speaker 1: all teams are in the same boat on that front.
28:24
Speaker 1: I think one thing that's interesting is Gardner Minshew's leadership,
28:29
Speaker 1: the fact that he's reaching out the players. The fact
28:31
Speaker 1: that if it's just Gardener, but players are talking during
28:35
Speaker 1: all this and they're motivated focus. That to me is
28:38
Speaker 1: a good sign for the Jaguars And maybe I take
28:40
Speaker 1: more from that than anything else right now. Well, they
28:43
Speaker 1: need to because there's a lot to learn. I mean,
28:45
Speaker 1: this is a new offense, a new new regime basically,
28:49
Speaker 1: and um, if they don't take take it by the horns,
28:53
Speaker 1: and they're not gonna take it, they have to go
28:55
Speaker 1: do it. You know. It's easy for fans and observers
29:00
Speaker 1: like well that any team would do that, any players
29:04
Speaker 1: are going to do that. Yes, But the the level
29:10
Speaker 1: to which is teams do it, I think I think varies.
29:14
Speaker 1: During the lockout last time you heard reports different teams
29:19
Speaker 1: got together out away from the facility on different levels. Um,
29:24
Speaker 1: I'm sure not every team. Right now, all thirty two
29:28
Speaker 1: are are communicating at the same levels, are putting as
29:33
Speaker 1: much in to learn in the offense. Maybe some teams
29:35
Speaker 1: don't have as much to do. I'm encouraged by the
29:38
Speaker 1: amount that when Gardner and you hear different players talk.
29:42
Speaker 1: You hear these guys talking about the zoom meetings where
29:46
Speaker 1: they're going through plays, where they're calling each other afterwards. Um,
29:50
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know how to quantify it, but
29:53
Speaker 1: I'd sure rather be hearing that than not hearing about it.
29:59
Speaker 1: Dot Com senior writer. I know it's been a different week,
30:02
Speaker 1: so there has not been as much written coverage on
30:06
Speaker 1: the site as we would normally have. What do you
30:09
Speaker 1: have coming up though down the pike here? Well, and
30:12
Speaker 1: to explain what you just said a reason I really
30:15
Speaker 1: did write anything the last couple of days on the website.
30:18
Speaker 1: Shod has his op ed or or essay. I think
30:22
Speaker 1: it's the department. Everybody felt like that's what people should
30:25
Speaker 1: be focused on when they come to the site. That's
30:27
Speaker 1: important right now. So the decision was May, hey, we'll
30:30
Speaker 1: back off and there will be a time in the
30:33
Speaker 1: next couple of days we get back to writing football.
30:36
Speaker 1: So really the football things on the site podcast with
30:39
Speaker 1: Peter King on Monday, Um, and anybody who's listening to
30:42
Speaker 1: Peter knows, he's very insightful. We recorded it before really
30:47
Speaker 1: uh the unrest and the issue uh that we're all
30:52
Speaker 1: dealing with with the racism really became forefront, so that's
30:57
Speaker 1: not on there. But he talked a lot about COVID,
31:00
Speaker 1: talked a lot about what a already what an amazingly
31:04
Speaker 1: complex off season it was. I can't imagine what that
31:07
Speaker 1: would be now. But he also had some good things
31:09
Speaker 1: to say about Gardner Minshew about the pressure that's facing
31:12
Speaker 1: him about the franchise itself. So as you know JP,
31:15
Speaker 1: you know Peter, you talked to him anytime he talks
31:18
Speaker 1: to an issue. It's interesting that recommend people to jobs
31:22
Speaker 1: to check that out. It's worth listening to check it out.

36:29
Speaker 1: Thanks to Tony B. Selly. Thanks to John osan Jaguars
36:34
Speaker 1: dot com senior writer for joining us earlier in the program.
36:39
Speaker 1: We continue in the shot Kohn OpEd that was announced
36:42
Speaker 1: released yesterday. We're going through the final few paragraphs of
36:49
Speaker 1: that here on the program. The full piece available on
36:51
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot com and other media outlets as well. Another
36:55
Speaker 1: excerpt from yesterday quote racial discrimination and no place in
36:58
Speaker 1: our society that's been set, but what's been done? We
37:02
Speaker 1: must have the answer today and we'll work with players,
37:04
Speaker 1: staff and more to arrive at a timely response because
37:07
Speaker 1: this moment, while agonizing lee similar in any ways, is
37:10
Speaker 1: unlike any other in our history for underserved people and
37:13
Speaker 1: communities in the United States. We cannot attack the virus
37:16
Speaker 1: of racism within difference or periodic attention. We cannot expect
37:20
Speaker 1: an easy cure or give up when the quest becomes
37:22
Speaker 1: inconvenient or uncomfortable. In quote that's from Shot Khan's op
37:27
Speaker 1: ed yesterday on Jaguars dot com. We go to the
37:31
Speaker 1: phone now, Jeff Logman, Jaguars analysts joining us. Jeff Good, afternoon, sir.
37:36
Speaker 1: Good to hear from you, Good to talk to you,
37:39
Speaker 1: as always, And it's always it's always good to be heard,
37:44
Speaker 1: if you know what I mean, Yes, it is indeed, Uh,
37:48
Speaker 1: we are. It's been quite a week obviously around the NFL,
37:52
Speaker 1: but not only there, but around our country with everything
37:55
Speaker 1: that is happening currently and has happened and will happen
37:59
Speaker 1: in the days and weeks and months ahead. What did
38:02
Speaker 1: you make of Mr Khan's op ed yesterday? When you
38:05
Speaker 1: read well well said? Uh certainly uniquely qualified to be
38:11
Speaker 1: able to speak on that topic. And I know a
38:16
Speaker 1: lot of people have tried to voice their opinion and
38:20
Speaker 1: their concerns, but who better to hear it from than
38:25
Speaker 1: uh Shot Cohn, who is the minority himself and has
38:30
Speaker 1: had to deal with discrimination as a Muslim American and uh,
38:36
Speaker 1: I've I read it and I thought it was extremely powerful.
38:40
Speaker 1: It is. It certainly is. I think, as we said
38:43
Speaker 1: earlier in the show, I think it's the most powerful
38:45
Speaker 1: of anything that any of the teams have put out,
38:47
Speaker 1: because well, I think the one thing that I liked
38:51
Speaker 1: about it and it really spoke, I think, to the
38:55
Speaker 1: foundation of what some of the unrest is about, which
38:59
Speaker 1: is which is the systematic racism. But also it also
39:03
Speaker 1: gave I think a very upfront explanation and that, look,
39:07
Speaker 1: there are opportunities that still exist on and I'm living
39:11
Speaker 1: an example of that, and that I was helped along
39:14
Speaker 1: the way, and so let's not feel that there is
39:18
Speaker 1: absolutely no hope, you know. So I think it was
39:22
Speaker 1: kind of it was kind of two phold and accomplished
39:25
Speaker 1: a couple of different things, and I think that's why
39:27
Speaker 1: it was so unique in nature and that it did
39:30
Speaker 1: kind of cover multiple areas of what's going on. Jeff
39:35
Speaker 1: Lockman with this Jaguars analyst, Jaguars Happy Hour, the reactions
39:40
Speaker 1: from players around the National Football League, and it's front
39:45
Speaker 1: and center of the NFL news right now. You know,
39:49
Speaker 1: it was interesting to me the Drew Brees situation that
39:53
Speaker 1: happened yesterday, the day before his comments came out. Many
39:57
Speaker 1: of his teammates came out immediately um on the other
40:01
Speaker 1: side of it and against Drew Brees. And since then
40:04
Speaker 1: there have been there's been an apology from Breeze and
40:08
Speaker 1: the acceptance of the apology by some of those But
40:11
Speaker 1: that's just one example of way a comment can go
40:14
Speaker 1: one way, and then the entire locker room is is
40:18
Speaker 1: kind of on the other side of this thing, or
40:20
Speaker 1: is on the other side of this thing. How's this
40:22
Speaker 1: going to play in certain locker rooms? Well, first of all,
40:25
Speaker 1: I think the locker room is very unique, and there's
40:27
Speaker 1: a lot of things that would be considered taboo in
40:29
Speaker 1: a workplace setting that they're never They're never taboo in
40:32
Speaker 1: a locker room. And I think that's what makes an
40:35
Speaker 1: NFL locker room so unique. And when players leave the game,
40:38
Speaker 1: it's very hard to find something that even that it
40:40
Speaker 1: even comes close to them. But uh, to get to
40:43
Speaker 1: Drew Brees first and foremost, the video of George Floyd
40:48
Speaker 1: getting killed murdered. It was so powerful and moving, I
40:54
Speaker 1: think to a lot of different people, and I don't
40:56
Speaker 1: know really the basis where the response on Drew Brees
41:02
Speaker 1: came about where he started talking about he didn't want
41:05
Speaker 1: to disrespect the country in the nation by kneeling for
41:08
Speaker 1: the flag, which why in the world are you even
41:11
Speaker 1: going there? What does that have to do with anything
41:14
Speaker 1: that is going on right now? So Drew Brees stuck
41:18
Speaker 1: his foot in his mouth, and he deserved every response
41:21
Speaker 1: that he got the nature of the question, but clearly
41:24
Speaker 1: that shouldn't even have been on his mind or on
41:27
Speaker 1: his lips to be spoken so his teammates will write
41:31
Speaker 1: and criticizing him, and Drew Brees was right and trying
41:36
Speaker 1: to apologize for some of the some of that commentary.
41:39
Speaker 1: And I thought that Karen Jordan's I think spoke very well.
41:44
Speaker 1: Malcolm Jenkins, I thought responded to it, uh in a
41:47
Speaker 1: proper way. So I think Drew Brees learned a lot
41:51
Speaker 1: and that he's got to be a little bit more
41:53
Speaker 1: careful with his words, and especially right now. I mean,
41:56
Speaker 1: you've got to be careful with your words if you're
41:59
Speaker 1: in n F player and uh, But at the same token,
42:03
Speaker 1: you also don't want people to be so careful that
42:07
Speaker 1: they're not speaking from the heart, because I think when
42:10
Speaker 1: you get to the heart of them matter. You want
42:11
Speaker 1: people speaking from the heart so people can understand different perspectives.
42:16
Speaker 1: So it's a it's a challenging time and there's a
42:20
Speaker 1: lot of people that are very disappointed, as they should be.
42:24
Speaker 1: And and I hate to say is sometimes with tragedy
42:27
Speaker 1: comes comes I don't want to say reward, but also
42:31
Speaker 1: comes change. And uh, you hope that that happens, and
42:35
Speaker 1: you hope that the nation can heal and some leadership
42:39
Speaker 1: can step up and help all of that happen. And
42:42
Speaker 1: the timing of that is just two knows. I mean
42:44
Speaker 1: that that that's what we don't have any answer to,
42:47
Speaker 1: but that the progress has started, I believe. And Jeff
42:51
Speaker 1: Logman is with US Jaguars analysts a little football talk
42:55
Speaker 1: ANALOGUS coaches are allowed back in the building tomorrow. That's
43:00
Speaker 1: a good step in the right direction. I don't know
43:02
Speaker 1: what they can do differently that they can't do now
43:05
Speaker 1: in the office, but at least they can be at
43:07
Speaker 1: the office. That's step one. Yeah. Until I heard Tony
43:14
Speaker 1: earlier talking about you know, what difference does it make?
43:17
Speaker 1: I mean, until you let the players come back, I mean,
43:19
Speaker 1: what difference does it really make? You know? Letting coaches
43:23
Speaker 1: come back, well, I think it makes a difference. First
43:25
Speaker 1: of all, especially when you've got a new offensive staff,
43:28
Speaker 1: you know, the ability to communicate in the same room
43:31
Speaker 1: for that offensive staff so that people can start to
43:34
Speaker 1: formulate game plans and formulate theories on what their offense
43:38
Speaker 1: is gonna look like with the staff that's never been together.
43:40
Speaker 1: So I think there's great benefits to having the coaches
43:44
Speaker 1: to be able to come back to work and to
43:46
Speaker 1: be in the same room together, especially for the Jaguars
43:48
Speaker 1: on the offensive side of the ball, for the for
43:51
Speaker 1: the players themselves. I don't think there's gonna be anything
43:54
Speaker 1: in the all season for anybody, and nor do I
43:57
Speaker 1: think there should be. I think the NFL is to
44:00
Speaker 1: concent trade fully on getting teams prepared for the start
44:04
Speaker 1: of training camp and trying to figure out what that
44:07
Speaker 1: may look like or what it may not look like,
44:10
Speaker 1: and also trying to figure out exactly what they want
44:13
Speaker 1: to do to accomplish as close to a full season
44:16
Speaker 1: as they can before the virus is expected to come back. So, uh,
44:22
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things to focus on, and all
44:24
Speaker 1: season is certainly not one of the players from all
44:28
Speaker 1: season activity. I don't think that's really anything to worry about.
44:31
Speaker 1: It to be concerned about right now. And then of course,
44:35
Speaker 1: yeahs as you mentioned, as this summer goes along, the
44:37
Speaker 1: next few weeks month or so, we'll get a clearer
44:40
Speaker 1: picture of how that training camp is going to look
44:44
Speaker 1: and preseason if there is, and then to the regular season.
44:48
Speaker 1: Just a little too early to tell right now. I
44:50
Speaker 1: think they've got to get through some calendar before they
44:52
Speaker 1: even start making moves on that front. Yeah, I mean,
44:56
Speaker 1: it's look, this is a whole different the head of
45:01
Speaker 1: parameters to be dealing with from an animal health team perspective,
45:05
Speaker 1: and much like what we're talking about with some of
45:09
Speaker 1: the things going on in our society. You know, there's
45:12
Speaker 1: a lot of things that are happening that haven't happened,
45:16
Speaker 1: aren't aren't part of you know, this time of year
45:19
Speaker 1: with the national pandemic, worldwide pandemic going on at the
45:23
Speaker 1: same time, and boy, you talk about challenges for for everybody,
45:27
Speaker 1: and uh, this is certainly a challenging year for a
45:29
Speaker 1: lot of people. I don't remember. I mean, I've been
45:33
Speaker 1: in the league, with my ninth season in the league,
45:35
Speaker 1: but I've watched the league obviously over the years. You've
45:37
Speaker 1: been around it longer than I have. That I don't
45:40
Speaker 1: remember a more. Let's call it tumultuous offseason, considering there's
45:46
Speaker 1: no football going on, right, I mean, there's everything that's happened. No, no,
45:50
Speaker 1: there's there's nothing that's even come close to it, you know.
45:53
Speaker 1: I mean you when you're talking about worldwide pandemic and
45:57
Speaker 1: and you have where we're at now with Holy cal
46:03
Speaker 1: I mean the killing of George Boyd. And here here's
46:05
Speaker 1: the other thing. Why weren't these other officers charged as well?
46:10
Speaker 1: They have to have them. They have been good, they
46:12
Speaker 1: have been since then. How don't anybody stand by and
46:16
Speaker 1: sit there and watch what happened? I mean, that's to
46:19
Speaker 1: me that that is completely baffling. How anybody would stand
46:23
Speaker 1: by and sit there and accept what happened, or to
46:27
Speaker 1: sit there and allow that to happen. I don't understand that. Right.
46:31
Speaker 1: So the others have been since charged. The last day
46:34
Speaker 1: or two, I think that the charges have changed and
46:36
Speaker 1: they up the charge to murder, to charge for the
46:39
Speaker 1: lead officer in that situation. So with that, combined the
46:44
Speaker 1: unrest that has followed that around the country, around the NFL,
46:47
Speaker 1: this is uncharted water sure, and I think we're only
46:52
Speaker 1: just beginning logs, which is we said that about two
46:55
Speaker 1: months ago too, I think so, I mean it is.
46:59
Speaker 1: I mean, everything is in the category right now, and
47:05
Speaker 1: to try to comment on me, you can only speculate.
47:08
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a there's a lot of different things
47:11
Speaker 1: that are in our life that we're trying to figure
47:13
Speaker 1: out right now. I mean a lot of things that
47:16
Speaker 1: are unknown for a lot of people. You know, from
47:19
Speaker 1: from a work standpoint to a schooling standpoint, to a
47:23
Speaker 1: societal standpoint to a sports standpoint. The list goes on
47:28
Speaker 1: and on of issues that families in America are dealing with,
47:34
Speaker 1: and some are dealing with more than others. And it
47:37
Speaker 1: makes Corny certainly a year that well hard to be forgotten,
47:44
Speaker 1: that's for sure. You get that right. We're only June fourth,
47:47
Speaker 1: so we got a lot of left to go here. Likes. Hey,

52:43
Speaker 1: Final moments say, it has been quite a week around
52:47
Speaker 1: the National Football League with everything that has happened, the
52:51
Speaker 1: response after the George Floyd situation in Milwaukee, and that
52:57
Speaker 1: has moved into cities around the country and of course
53:01
Speaker 1: around the National Football League as well. We've we mentioned
53:04
Speaker 1: the Drew brees A situation in New Orleans, some of
53:07
Speaker 1: his comments and the reaction to those comments Since then,
53:11
Speaker 1: Breese is issues and apology and some of those players
53:15
Speaker 1: who came out publicly in response to Breeze originally have
53:18
Speaker 1: said they have accepted it. The conversation continues down in
53:22
Speaker 1: New Orleans. That's really has been the biggest over the
53:25
Speaker 1: last couple of days around the NFL, the biggest response reaction,
53:32
Speaker 1: at least in my opinion, to what has happened. The
53:36
Speaker 1: Union apparently is updating players today on getting back to
53:40
Speaker 1: work at team facilities in a video conference that should
53:43
Speaker 1: be ongoing about right now the the Player Association. We'll
53:49
Speaker 1: update players on the discussions of reopening facilities and a
53:53
Speaker 1: return to football activity at some point when that is uh,
53:58
Speaker 1: nobody really knows and there's the feeling that it might
54:02
Speaker 1: not be until training camp, and it's June four currently,
54:06
Speaker 1: so training camp is late July on the calendar. That's
54:11
Speaker 1: a long time between now and then for a lot
54:13
Speaker 1: of things to happen, So we shall see. Those are
54:17
Speaker 1: the biggest news from around the National Football League. You've
54:23
Speaker 1: heard off to the side if you you're following football
54:25
Speaker 1: and college football, especially some colleges trying to get back
54:30
Speaker 1: and get players back at some point. Well, today, apparently
54:33
Speaker 1: a report came out that five Alabama players tested positive
54:37
Speaker 1: for COVID nineteen after workouts they were working out as
54:42
Speaker 1: a group together. The workout included nearly fifty players. They
54:46
Speaker 1: were tested Tuesday, they practiced together on Wednesday, and they
54:49
Speaker 1: got the results. Apparently today. Voluntary workouts start on June eight,
54:55
Speaker 1: officially in the Southeastern Conference, so that's something to watch um,
55:00
Speaker 1: with large groups of players starting to gather on their
55:03
Speaker 1: own ahead of that time. How that response happens and
55:07
Speaker 1: and how those groups settings happened. Um, we'll see if
55:11
Speaker 1: the league has any follow to their response in the
55:15
Speaker 1: Southeastern Conference. Those are some of the biggest storylines from
55:19
Speaker 1: around the NFL. Of course, three cheers. This week, and
55:22
Speaker 1: you know what, let's give it out to the people
55:25
Speaker 1: here in the city of Jacksonville. UM. After a little
55:28
Speaker 1: bit of unrest on Saturday downtown UM, which didn't go
55:33
Speaker 1: too far. It did go too far, but it didn't
55:37
Speaker 1: go for too long. Let's say it was shut down
55:40
Speaker 1: pretty quickly by the j s O. Since then, at
55:44
Speaker 1: least as far as I know, everything has been peaceful,
55:46
Speaker 1: everything has been organized and has gone the right way.
55:50
Speaker 1: There was a march in San Marco last night, not
55:53
Speaker 1: far from the house here, and by all accounts that
55:56
Speaker 1: went fantastic, with thousands of people involved, marching from south
56:01
Speaker 1: Side Park behind the library, through San Marco Square and
56:04
Speaker 1: back UM and it went very well. And that is
56:09
Speaker 1: that's that's a great sign. So three cheers this week
56:12
Speaker 1: to the people here in the city of Jacksonville who
56:15
Speaker 1: are exercising their right to get out and protest. And
56:18
Speaker 1: they should and they've they've done a great job of it.
56:21
Speaker 1: Let's keep it up here in the city of Jacksonville.
56:24
Speaker 1: Interested to see what's ahead for the Jacksonville Jaguars. It
56:27
Speaker 1: is still the off season program meetings are happening online.
56:32
Speaker 1: I'm sure this has been a topic of conversation in
56:35
Speaker 1: those meetings between the team coaching staff and all of that.
56:40
Speaker 1: We saw Shot Khan's op ed this week, and as
56:44
