Speaker 1: Jack Bars, Jacks Jaguars brand sex steps to John oh
0:10
Speaker 1: Ages actually Jaguars draw a time starts right now. You
0:18
Speaker 1: take a step back. You know, you think of you know,
0:23
Speaker 1: you know, what can I do um not only as
0:26
Speaker 1: a as a as a as a white male, but
0:28
Speaker 1: as a head football coach. And I think that, you know,
0:32
Speaker 1: there's a lot going on, but what can we control?
0:34
Speaker 1: We can control what goes on here and I think
0:36
Speaker 1: you'll see steps as we progress, you know through this.
0:40
Speaker 1: You know it's like, you know, what is the plan?
0:42
Speaker 1: How are you going to sustain and how? You know,
0:44
Speaker 1: you get a lot of these questions. But we're working.
0:45
Speaker 1: You know, we're working. You know, today was just the
0:48
Speaker 1: first step, a step in the right direction for head
0:51
Speaker 1: coach Donrone and the jag Wars organization as a whole,
0:54
Speaker 1: coming off last week's peaceful protest march advocating for social
0:58
Speaker 1: justice change, twenty players as well as members of the
1:02
Speaker 1: coaching staff and a large number of the front office
1:05
Speaker 1: marching together as one. We will recap that in today's show,
1:09
Speaker 1: as well as get to some football as much as
1:11
Speaker 1: we can here in early June, as I welcome in
1:14
Speaker 1: our co host Brian Sexton, and John Hoosier. Guys, how
1:18
Speaker 1: was your weekend? It's great and it's uh, one weekend
1:23
Speaker 1: sort of turns into another and then uh, you come
1:26
Speaker 1: back and you talk football. Let's go. Let's go as
1:29
Speaker 1: much as we can. Absolutely, so let's get into big
1:31
Speaker 1: thing one, and that is pushing for change. Running back
1:34
Speaker 1: coach Terry Robiski and wide receiver Chris Connolly, as well
1:38
Speaker 1: as former jack Ernest Wilford, sharing powerful speeches on the
1:41
Speaker 1: steps that Jackson will Shareff's office on Friday, all by
1:44
Speaker 1: standards and participants could definitely tell. Chris Connolly got long
1:48
Speaker 1: and hard about his words, at emotional at times. He
1:51
Speaker 1: told us Friday's march will be with the locker room
1:54
Speaker 1: for most of the season. Being able to admit that
1:58
Speaker 1: we can grow is a hallmark of change, and I
2:02
Speaker 1: think that needs to happen in locker rooms as well.
2:04
Speaker 1: I don't know the effect that this will have on
2:06
Speaker 1: the community, but I know it will have an effect
2:08
Speaker 1: on the locker room. I know I can look at
2:10
Speaker 1: guys who are here today, I can look at him
2:11
Speaker 1: in the eye and say thank you, thank you for listening,
2:15
Speaker 1: thank you for wanting to know more. And I think
2:17
Speaker 1: that in and of itself makes an impact in our
2:19
Speaker 1: locker room and in this building. And big thing too
2:22
Speaker 1: is floating an idea, Albert for your NFL reporter, or
2:25
Speaker 1: at least an article yesterday, that we could be starting
2:27
Speaker 1: training camp as soon as mid July to get players
2:30
Speaker 1: a chance to get back into football shape. With these
2:32
Speaker 1: virtual meetings, no one has really been able to work
2:35
Speaker 1: out on and feel like they've been doing so far
2:37
Speaker 1: past season with ot A. The new CBA says teams
2:41
Speaker 1: can report forty seven days before their first regular season game.
2:44
Speaker 1: As of now, that would put us at July for
2:48
Speaker 1: a hopeful training camp day. So, guys, before we get
2:51
Speaker 1: into that football news, the new article with Albert your John,
2:55
Speaker 1: I know you were at the march on Friday. What
2:56
Speaker 1: did you think of that whole thing? And it seems
2:58
Speaker 1: like going off the week and it was a really
3:00
Speaker 1: positive look for the Jaguars. Well, it really was. They
3:04
Speaker 1: were ahead of the curve. There are several teams who
3:08
Speaker 1: also did similar things later. The Jaguars were the first,
3:12
Speaker 1: and I don't know if the people involved where they
3:14
Speaker 1: were really going for that, as much as there was
3:18
Speaker 1: clearly a sentiment in the organization that they needed to
3:22
Speaker 1: do something, and I get the everybody who's watching this show,
3:26
Speaker 1: and most people who are watching this show have probably
3:29
Speaker 1: seen Chris Conley speech and it was fantastic. If you
3:33
Speaker 1: haven't seen it, obviously, i'd recommend going on social media
3:36
Speaker 1: and finding it. I was just as struck, if not
3:39
Speaker 1: more so, by Terry Robiski, mainly because of I'm an
3:44
Speaker 1: older guy. Uh so I respect somebody in their mid sixties,
3:51
Speaker 1: which Terry Robiski has been through. Goodness knows how much
3:55
Speaker 1: that I can't possibly relate to. And the words that
3:59
Speaker 1: he at in his five or six minutes when he
4:03
Speaker 1: talked about the supporters dot com and the support of
4:08
Speaker 1: Dave Caldwell and the support of Doug Morone. And to
4:12
Speaker 1: me when Terry almost broke down during that, and one
4:16
Speaker 1: of the onlookers say come on, coach and was very
4:18
Speaker 1: supportive to me, That's what I took away is I
4:22
Speaker 1: don't think you can fake And nobody was faking anything.
4:25
Speaker 1: Don't gonna be wrong, but you can't fake the emotion
4:28
Speaker 1: and the way that the whole week affected Robinsky and
4:33
Speaker 1: the importance and they step forward, whatever you call it.
4:37
Speaker 1: To me, they were there in his words and it
4:42
Speaker 1: was an emotional moment seeing and hearing that from him.
4:47
Speaker 1: You know, my takeaway here is that it goes from
4:50
Speaker 1: being a conversation to real change. When Terry Robisky just
4:55
Speaker 1: to use him as an example, but for all of them,
4:58
Speaker 1: all of the people who have been oppressed, is to
5:01
Speaker 1: say that they have our support too, right, They always
5:04
Speaker 1: had the support of one another in that locker room.
5:07
Speaker 1: And that's the disconnect, is that we see these guys
5:10
Speaker 1: in the locker room as players and coaches, and we
5:12
Speaker 1: talked to them on the plane, and we think they're
5:14
Speaker 1: just like me, and they weren't living the exact same
5:16
Speaker 1: life that you and I were. So when John O'shan
5:20
Speaker 1: or Brian Sexton or Ashlyn Sullivan or anyone watching this says, hey,
5:24
Speaker 1: I got you, Terry, I've got you, Chris. The way
5:27
Speaker 1: we're with you to help move this from being just
5:30
Speaker 1: talk to honest to goodness action for a more just
5:33
Speaker 1: society for everyone, that's when the change really happens. And
5:38
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, John, you and I are older
5:40
Speaker 1: than Ashlynd obviously, and and the reality of it is
5:43
Speaker 1: is there have been moments through history where there have
5:46
Speaker 1: been where there have been moments and there has been
5:49
Speaker 1: a considerable amount of change in specific moments. I don't
5:53
Speaker 1: know why, but this feels to me. Um. There's a
5:56
Speaker 1: great book that came out twenty years ago from David
5:58
Speaker 1: Albert Stam, one of the great obstigative journalists and writers.
6:01
Speaker 1: UM called The Children, and it was about those young
6:04
Speaker 1: black people who sat at the counter at the Montgomery
6:06
Speaker 1: Ward lunch Counter in Nashville and really started the movement
6:10
Speaker 1: in the late fifties that became the sixties. This feels
6:13
Speaker 1: to me like that kind of momentum now, Um, because
6:17
Speaker 1: I think fair minded, normal humans say we should be
6:21
Speaker 1: supporting you. Yeah, no question. Marcus Pollard are the Jaguar
6:27
Speaker 1: is a player development director with somebody else who spoke
6:30
Speaker 1: and it struck me when he was speaking. I've known
6:32
Speaker 1: Marcus since two thousand one. I covered him with the Colts.
6:35
Speaker 1: I quoted him a million times with the Calls in
6:39
Speaker 1: four years. I consider him a friend. I think he
6:41
Speaker 1: considers me a friend. In nineteen years, he said stuff
6:45
Speaker 1: on the steps that we never talked about. Whether or
6:49
Speaker 1: not it was uncomfortable, whether it's not, it's just something
6:52
Speaker 1: that brought up. Whether or not, Hey, it just never
6:54
Speaker 1: came up. I think there is where you're going to
6:57
Speaker 1: see the change now. Those conversations until happen, and you know,
7:01
Speaker 1: I wish we had had him before. I feel certain
7:03
Speaker 1: we'll have him now. But I think that's where the
7:06
Speaker 1: change is. Brian, I hope. Well, and here's the other thing.
7:09
Speaker 1: And your son has grown and my sons are in
7:10
Speaker 1: high school and college now in Ashland, Sunday, God willing,
7:13
Speaker 1: you'll have kids too. It's a great lesson to be
7:16
Speaker 1: able to say, to teach them how to treat people
7:20
Speaker 1: and how to be part of the human race and
7:22
Speaker 1: not just be white or black. Absolutely, and definitely something
7:26
Speaker 1: we will continue to talk about because we all know
7:28
Speaker 1: this movement is not going away any times to have
7:30
Speaker 1: like done around and said this is just a step
7:33
Speaker 1: in the right direction for this movement. But we'll attempt
7:35
Speaker 1: to get back to some football. Talking about the early
7:38
Speaker 1: start of training camp, I think we all can expect
7:40
Speaker 1: now that training camp will not look like we normally
7:43
Speaker 1: are used to it. It's to the point now where
7:45
Speaker 1: we all can expect to start taking vacation now and
7:48
Speaker 1: expect an earlier return to the football season. Guys, Yeah,
7:53
Speaker 1: maybe I mean Albert certainly floated that out a career. UM,
7:59
Speaker 1: my sense is anything like that will need significant players
8:03
Speaker 1: association approval. Uh. Who knows if that will happen. I
8:07
Speaker 1: have no idea. It's just an idea right now. But
8:10
Speaker 1: you know, I don't think anything at this point in
8:13
Speaker 1: this offseason, where you have had to be very agile
8:18
Speaker 1: and ready to change your approach, I think anything would
8:21
Speaker 1: surprise me at this point. Um. I sort of believe
8:25
Speaker 1: that there's no reason that the season wouldn't look pretty
8:32
Speaker 1: similar if they started training camp at the regular time.
8:36
Speaker 1: I mean they did in two thousand eleven. I get
8:38
Speaker 1: that there was a little bit of a rough start
8:40
Speaker 1: to that year. But if they get back normal time
8:43
Speaker 1: training camp, you can get this thing going on time
8:47
Speaker 1: and going for a season. If that's their approach, we'll see.
8:51
Speaker 1: It's interesting to use the word look the same, because
8:55
Speaker 1: the way that we cover this team, the other members
8:58
Speaker 1: of the media cover this team is is going to
9:00
Speaker 1: be entirely different. So talk about the look uh. Breers
9:03
Speaker 1: article also mentioned the three different tiers of NFL employees.
9:07
Speaker 1: Obviously that didn't include outside media. It doesn't appear that
9:11
Speaker 1: those two sides, the Tier one football players and coaches
9:15
Speaker 1: and anyone else are really going to even get close,
9:18
Speaker 1: whether we're able to be on the practice field, whether
9:20
Speaker 1: fans are able to be at the training camp practices
9:23
Speaker 1: that are open. It doesn't sound to me like we'll
9:25
Speaker 1: get into the locker room this year. And I don't
9:27
Speaker 1: know what you guys saw this, but Major League Baseball
9:29
Speaker 1: told all of their broadcasters you're not traveling. Home broadcasters
9:32
Speaker 1: can do the game in the stadium, but visiting broadcasters
9:35
Speaker 1: will be in a studio back in their home city. Um.
9:39
Speaker 1: How this looks to fans in terms of the way
9:42
Speaker 1: that they consume the Jaguars is immediate during the week
9:47
Speaker 1: is it's a week progress. It's going to be very interesting, guys.
9:51
Speaker 1: I think as of now, all we can expect is
9:54
Speaker 1: to look different and expect some change going into this season.

12:26
Speaker 1: that drive time, wrapping up big things and getting into
12:29
Speaker 1: the Ozona mail bag here in the middle of June,
12:32
Speaker 1: still talking at some football as we go to Georgia,
12:36
Speaker 1: and Garrett has a question about the linebackers. I think
12:39
Speaker 1: adding middle linebacker Joe Schober will make two positions better
12:43
Speaker 1: with Miles Jack moving to the week side. I don't
12:45
Speaker 1: understand why this wasn't done last year. It is obvious
12:48
Speaker 1: Jack plays better as an outside linebacker. Why continue to
12:52
Speaker 1: try to play him as the Mike John Well, this
12:56
Speaker 1: is a world of short memories, and I get that,
12:59
Speaker 1: and I've gotten this quite Goodness knows how much since
13:02
Speaker 1: I guess March, really since January when this first started
13:05
Speaker 1: getting talked about. Kelvin Smith was playing the week side
13:08
Speaker 1: before Paul faus Lesnie was playing in the middle when
13:12
Speaker 1: Miles first got here. You weren't going to move Myles,
13:15
Speaker 1: Jack or rookie to middle or week at that point.
13:19
Speaker 1: You needed to get him out of the strong spot
13:22
Speaker 1: because that's not a full time spot. They moved. That's
13:27
Speaker 1: my signal for moving. They moved Miles to the middle,
13:31
Speaker 1: and Telvin was still here to make the overall linebacker corps,
13:36
Speaker 1: which is what it's all about. It's not about one player,
13:37
Speaker 1: it's about making the overall group better. They moved Miles
13:41
Speaker 1: to the middle. You couldn't move Telvin. He wasn't gonna
13:44
Speaker 1: play middle, he wasn't gonna play strong. He was a
13:47
Speaker 1: smallish weak side linebacker. Last year Telvin announces he's leading
13:51
Speaker 1: football what may the day before the draft, the day after,
13:55
Speaker 1: right around the draft, no real time to switch up.
13:59
Speaker 1: If all things had been in a vacuum and you
14:01
Speaker 1: had had no players on the team, I think you
14:04
Speaker 1: make this move before they had to wait to try
14:07
Speaker 1: to get it better. Now, given an offseason to prepare
14:11
Speaker 1: for this, you bring Joe Schoberd in, You move Miles,
14:14
Speaker 1: you get into the spot. But that's why Brian Miles
14:18
Speaker 1: will be the best weak side linebacker the Jaguars have
14:22
Speaker 1: ever had ever. He didn't play there for the reasons
14:27
Speaker 1: that you mentioned. So he's never played weak side in
14:29
Speaker 1: this scheme. He's only played middle or strong. And yet
14:32
Speaker 1: his skill if we go back to Pittsburgh in the interception, uh,
14:36
Speaker 1: and obviously you know Miles Jack wasn't down the forced fumble,
14:39
Speaker 1: the fumble recovered. This will put a big, strong, fast, smart, tough,
14:44
Speaker 1: playmaking linebacker in the playmaking position in the linebacking corps.
14:50
Speaker 1: I fully expect he will be the best weak side
14:53
Speaker 1: linebacker the Jaguars have ever had, hands down. All right,
14:56
Speaker 1: let's go to Ohio. Maybe Mike's got something better for us.
14:59
Speaker 1: Our recent d off pick Laviska hill Jina remind me
15:01
Speaker 1: of Denard Robinson its ability to be put in different
15:04
Speaker 1: roles to attack the defense. He was at one point
15:08
Speaker 1: referred to as an offensive weapon. Do you think the
15:10
Speaker 1: Jaguars will similarly? Well, I get the comparison, because Denard
15:18
Speaker 1: was really a player who they wanted to move around
15:21
Speaker 1: a lot. They wound up not putting the receiver very much.
15:23
Speaker 1: I think the fundamental difference here is Chat comes into
15:26
Speaker 1: the NFL if if you didn't play him anywhere else
15:30
Speaker 1: except outside wide receiver, he would have a chance to
15:33
Speaker 1: be a very very good player. He also has skills
15:35
Speaker 1: where you could move him, and it was clear to
15:37
Speaker 1: identify he was a big time college wide receiver. Denard
15:42
Speaker 1: came in having played quarterback, had a ton of skill,
15:45
Speaker 1: but didn't really have anywhere in the NFL where you
15:48
Speaker 1: could say, yes, he will go do this so he
15:51
Speaker 1: had to force an into spots. Also, Chanel, it's a
15:54
Speaker 1: high second round pick, meaning what ten spots into the
15:57
Speaker 1: second round to round pick. Very much a flyer. Let's
16:02
Speaker 1: see what he can do. Completely different situation. I would
16:06
Speaker 1: be stunned if Chanald is not a lot more productive
16:09
Speaker 1: and a bigger time player than Robinson. Bryan Dennard just
16:12
Speaker 1: didn't fit. I mean, he was never going to play receiver,
16:15
Speaker 1: and he wasn't going to play quarterback like he did
16:17
Speaker 1: in Michigan. And as a running back he was okay.
16:20
Speaker 1: I mean, his career and the trajectory of his career
16:24
Speaker 1: proves that he was just okay. I think I said
16:27
Speaker 1: last week, when I watch Chald, I think he's Larry Fitzgerald. Right.
16:32
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's going to be that elite all
16:34
Speaker 1: pro Hall of Fame guy, but he's that kind of
16:37
Speaker 1: a guy who was explosive and powerful. You could run
16:40
Speaker 1: the jet screen with him, you can do the jet
16:42
Speaker 1: sweep with him, you can throw to him deep, you
16:44
Speaker 1: can throw over the middle. He's going to be so
16:47
Speaker 1: much more productive as a receiver then Denard was as
16:52
Speaker 1: an all purpose back. To me, the comparison doesn't fit
16:55
Speaker 1: at all. Yes, very fair. I know I love us
16:58
Speaker 1: because not when he was drafted, coach marn was talking
17:00
Speaker 1: about putting him at wild quarterback. All kinds of options
17:04
Speaker 1: on the offense. So very curious to see you confuse
17:06
Speaker 1: people make them think that. But but no, hope now
17:09
Speaker 1: the guy is going to be at the line of scrimmage. Yes, definitely.
17:12
Speaker 1: We hope to be making place to the Jaguars coming
17:14
Speaker 1: student in, we come back, We go to top suite
17:18
Speaker 1: here on Jaguars Drive Time. Dream Finders Homes has a
17:26

19:50
Speaker 1: Jaguars Drive Time, coming off the weekend with some top
19:54
Speaker 1: tweets and starting with our very own running back, Leonard
19:57
Speaker 1: for Net tweeting out that he is planning his very
20:00
Speaker 1: own social justice march today. On Tuesday, we saw the
20:04
Speaker 1: big impact the Jaguars March made on Fridays. So guys,
20:07
Speaker 1: I'm pretty curious to see how this goes from Leonard today. Yeah,
20:10
Speaker 1: I think it'll go well. You know, uh, I don't
20:12
Speaker 1: think there's any thought of players within the Jaguars and
20:16
Speaker 1: the coaches that last Friday is going to be a
20:19
Speaker 1: one time thing and all of a sudden they're going
20:22
Speaker 1: to stop trying to be involved, they're gonna stop trying
20:24
Speaker 1: to get their message. So, um, I'm sure. I'm sure
20:30
Speaker 1: Leonards will have an impact. It can't be a one
20:32
Speaker 1: time thing. I mean, that's what has to be different
20:34
Speaker 1: about this, and it has to it would always be
20:37
Speaker 1: protest marches or or or how whatever they become. Um,
20:41
Speaker 1: but what's interesting is is that Leonard could be challenging.
20:44
Speaker 1: You guys know that you know on the field, off
20:46
Speaker 1: the field, he's a bit of a roller coaster. But
20:49
Speaker 1: when he interacts with people, whether it's kids that he's
20:51
Speaker 1: bringing shoes to or fans out in front of the stadium.
20:54
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy and you saw a
20:56
Speaker 1: first hand last year, Soland when you went to New Orleans.
20:59
Speaker 1: He cares, he wants to interact, He wants to love
21:03
Speaker 1: and be loved by people in the community. So I'm interested.
21:06
Speaker 1: I'm really interested in this in particular because I like
21:10
Speaker 1: that part of Leonard who is really interested in connecting
21:13
Speaker 1: with people. Yes, he definitely is that, and I think
21:16
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting. Also, I know he's been trying to
21:18
Speaker 1: work on this going into this season. As we went
21:20
Speaker 1: to film that documentary, he mentioned being from the seventh
21:23
Speaker 1: Ward in New Orleans. He is such a big deal
21:26
Speaker 1: there and he gives so much back to that community.
21:28
Speaker 1: But trying to do more here in Jackson, I know,
21:30
Speaker 1: is something he's been working on doing a lot in
21:32
Speaker 1: both those communities. So I think this is maybe something
21:35
Speaker 1: that he's going to start this year, is interacting more
21:37
Speaker 1: so in Jackson both. So we will see how that
21:39
Speaker 1: goes alright. Top tweet number two is Avery Jones tweeting
21:44
Speaker 1: out this photo, A very impactful photo starting the march.
21:47
Speaker 1: He is the first one in line along with his wife,
21:50
Speaker 1: and you see the huge crowd walking away from the stadium,
21:53
Speaker 1: And something that stands out to me is we have
21:55
Speaker 1: the twenty players show up on Friday, but so much
21:58
Speaker 1: more so the families. I'm John, I know you can
22:00
Speaker 1: speak of this. I met wives and girlfriends and siblings
22:04
Speaker 1: that I had never met before. It wasn't just one
22:06
Speaker 1: player showing up. It was all the families showing up
22:09
Speaker 1: as well. That absolutely was and it was very much
22:13
Speaker 1: a It felt like a family thing, and the players
22:18
Speaker 1: it felt important to them and a lot of the
22:21
Speaker 1: employees to have their families there. And I think the
22:25
Speaker 1: families of players were wanting to be involved, and I
22:29
Speaker 1: think everybody it feels this way to me, Brian. Everybody
22:32
Speaker 1: is trying to figure out how to express what they
22:37
Speaker 1: want to express and how to do it in the
22:39
Speaker 1: right way, especially when you're associated with the Jaguars doing it.
22:42
Speaker 1: So it was impressive and I'm not surprised that Avery
22:46
Speaker 1: was front and center. He's the most veteran guy on
22:49
Speaker 1: the team. He is a clear team leader, um and
22:54
Speaker 1: that's really evolved because of the respect that years person
23:01
Speaker 1: now the franchise has for him as a man. UM.
23:05
Speaker 1: This can't be just about a few prominent people out front.
23:10
Speaker 1: It just give about a few prominent black people out front.
23:13
Speaker 1: It has to be about everybody doing something. And some
23:16
Speaker 1: people will march, and some people will talk, and some
23:19
Speaker 1: people will go to a police forum where they talk
23:23
Speaker 1: about better ways to interact with the community, or like
23:25
Speaker 1: Malik Jackson did, got in a car with the Neptune
23:28
Speaker 1: Beach police officer and spent an evening driving around asking
23:31
Speaker 1: really insightful questions. I mean, everybody wants to be a
23:36
Speaker 1: part I shouldn't say everybody, but most people want to
23:39
Speaker 1: be a part of a positive moment in the history,
23:44
Speaker 1: a turning something on its axis and saying look what
23:48
Speaker 1: we did and for that to happen, most everybody has
23:51
Speaker 1: to do something. And so when I saw those families
23:53
Speaker 1: and those kids, I thought, that's exactly what that is.
23:56
Speaker 1: Is that first step for everybody to do something. M
24:00
Speaker 1: prety impactful stuff, that's for sure. And finally, our top

27:26
Speaker 1: we're back for our final segment on Jaguars. That drive
27:30
Speaker 1: time a few more minutes, talking as much football as
27:32
Speaker 1: we can here in June. And guys, I just saw
27:34
Speaker 1: on Twitter Judy Patisa tweeting out that as of this week,
27:38
Speaker 1: NFL teams are gonna work on keeping their locker rooms
27:40
Speaker 1: six ft apart, start spreading out lockers, getting organized for
27:43
Speaker 1: players to come back. Jaguars should be able to do
27:46
Speaker 1: that with four locker rooms. But I can't help but
27:48
Speaker 1: go back to when we played the Bills in Buffalo.
27:51
Speaker 1: I don't know how that place is going to make
27:53
Speaker 1: that happen. Well, I'm sure teams are going to figure
27:57
Speaker 1: out a way to get the easy things done. I'm
28:02
Speaker 1: saying locker room is gonna be easy. But to get
28:04
Speaker 1: the off field things done. All of this can be
28:08
Speaker 1: done off the field. You can keep guys apart off
28:11
Speaker 1: the field, you can keep the tears apart. But Ryan,
28:14
Speaker 1: I know we've talked about this before. What happens when
28:17
Speaker 1: they go on the field is gonna be a million
28:19
Speaker 1: dollar question, because that is going to look all of
28:22
Speaker 1: a sudden, very congested out there. A friend of both
28:26
Speaker 1: of ours once said this when we were having lunch
28:30
Speaker 1: at the training table, and it's stuck with me for years,
28:32
Speaker 1: and that is that football is a game of human confrontation,
28:36
Speaker 1: and what we're seeing now is trying to remove human
28:40
Speaker 1: confrontation from society, right I mean not because they don't
28:44
Speaker 1: want people to be around each other, but because right
28:46
Speaker 1: now they don't. So you're trying to take away the
28:49
Speaker 1: most critical part of the game. And you can't do it.
28:52
Speaker 1: You just can't. The Jaguars in the NFL will finish
28:56
Speaker 1: the season if the COVID nineteen doesn't have a second wave.
29:02
Speaker 1: But if there's a second wave, I don't know how
29:04
Speaker 1: you can keep it from spreading. Not in a game
29:07
Speaker 1: like football. You can have tears, and you can have tests,
29:10
Speaker 1: and you can put people in isolation and quarantine, and
29:13
Speaker 1: but if this thing does what this thing does, then
29:16
Speaker 1: I don't know how you play football. But they're gonna try,
29:18
Speaker 1: because they don't know if there's going to be a
29:19
Speaker 1: second wave, and I support that try go and try
29:23
Speaker 1: and do all the things that you can do but John,
29:26
Speaker 1: it's a game of human confrontation, and when you confront
29:29
Speaker 1: another human being, you get the good and the bad.
29:31
Speaker 1: Sometimes the bad ist germs. You get the idea that
29:35
Speaker 1: as interesting as strange as the offseason is van hold
29:40
Speaker 1: On type hold on, It's going to be an interesting,
29:44
Speaker 1: more change coming. We can expect that much and we
29:46
Speaker 1: will see you next weep on Jaguars Drive Time. Thanks
29:49
Speaker 1: for watching.
