Speaker 1: for you. It's piping hot out of the audio oven.
0:09
Speaker 1: We head to Lost Wages, Nevada. Rumors flying that the
0:12
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys were trying to acquire Max Crosby. Now there's
0:16
Speaker 1: a report that says the Raiders have let Max Crosby
0:19
Speaker 1: know they do not plan on shopping him. The indication
0:22
Speaker 1: is he'll stay in Vegas. Does the Raiders seal of
0:26
Speaker 1: approval mean that Max Crosby is indeed going to stay
0:29
Speaker 1: with the Raiders the trade deadline less than two weeks away? Also,
0:32
Speaker 1: how should the Raiders handle Jacoby Myers, the wide receiver
0:36
Speaker 1: who does not want to be there? And in basketball,
0:40
Speaker 1: NBC executives going to the Wall Street Journal are said
0:42
Speaker 1: to be unhappy with the NBA deal. Why is this
0:46
Speaker 1: being reported as news. I'll give you my thoughts on
0:48
Speaker 1: that right now. It's our number two, the Max attack

2:25
Speaker 1: is yours and we begin this hour our lead story
2:30
Speaker 1: from Lost Wages, Nevada. As we start out with the
2:34
Speaker 1: auctioning block. We are now less than two weeks away,
2:38
Speaker 1: less than two weeks away from the swap meet ending
2:42
Speaker 1: in the NFL. The trade deadline, which for most of
2:45
Speaker 1: my life has been nothing special, nothing special. Lately, it's
2:51
Speaker 1: gotten a little bit better. At Devonte Adams traded last year.
2:56
Speaker 1: That was kind of cool. Didn't work out for the
2:57
Speaker 1: Jets team making a move with the name brand player.
3:01
Speaker 1: We've had some other name brand players traded in recent years. So,
3:05
Speaker 1: with that being said, the news out of Lost Wages, Nevada,
3:09
Speaker 1: and that is where we will begin. If you have
3:10
Speaker 1: not heard yet, there were rumors bubbling up, bubbling up
3:15
Speaker 1: about the Dallas Cowboys being on the prowl and they
3:21
Speaker 1: wanted Max Crosby. They wanted Max Crosby, and they were
3:25
Speaker 1: pursuing Max Crosby in a trade. Well, now we have
3:27
Speaker 1: learned that the Raiders met with Max Crosby, star edge rusher,
3:34
Speaker 1: and they let him know, we are not shopping you, Max,
3:39
Speaker 1: and we are not going to trade you. This comes
3:42
Speaker 1: from the prob the news service of the NFL state
3:44
Speaker 1: sponsored NFL network. They report that the Raiders are not interested.
3:50
Speaker 1: We are not interested in moving Max Crosby. He's the
3:55
Speaker 1: top player on the Raiders, and Crosby wants to stay
3:58
Speaker 1: as a loser apparently like lou U wants to stay
4:00
Speaker 1: with the Raiders, enjoys not having to worry about playing
4:02
Speaker 1: in the playoffs and things like that. So that is
4:04
Speaker 1: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question,
4:09
Speaker 1: does this Raiders seal of approval and it's they rubber
4:14
Speaker 1: stamped it the seal of approval? Does this mean that
4:17
Speaker 1: Max Crosby is absolutely one thousand percent staying with the Raiders?
4:24
Speaker 1: All right, so on this one, I've got Civil War
4:26
Speaker 1: four seasons and gift basket and we will combine all
4:32
Speaker 1: of these things together and we with the biscuit in
4:36
Speaker 1: the basket is what we're going to do. So number one,
4:45
Speaker 1: got it? Got it? So this does not change anything
4:51
Speaker 1: unless you're naive. Well, the Raiders said they weren't going
4:54
Speaker 1: to trade him, and if they said they're not gonna
4:55
Speaker 1: trade him, they're not going to trade him, and all that's,
4:57
Speaker 1: oh my god, all the ra said, and all the
5:01
Speaker 1: story was that they leaked. The story that was leaked
5:04
Speaker 1: was we aren't shopping Max Crosby. It's not that if
5:10
Speaker 1: somebody calls us up and is the Godfather offer, make
5:15
Speaker 1: him an offer he can't refuse. Then all of a sudden,
5:19
Speaker 1: Max Crosby is changing his laundry and going somewhere else.
5:22
Speaker 1: So it's a nice little sentiment to send out. The
5:25
Speaker 1: Raiders didn't say we're not trading Crosby. They're just said
5:29
Speaker 1: we're not trading him unless somebody blows the doors off
5:32
Speaker 1: the building and wants him traded. The price tags pretty high.
5:36
Speaker 1: The price tag's pretty high, and that's just a sales pitch.
5:40
Speaker 1: It's like, well, we don't want to trade this person
5:42
Speaker 1: at all, and so Max Crosby, if you keep it real,
5:47
Speaker 1: that's all we do is keep it really. The guy
5:51
Speaker 1: is the ethos of the Raiders. He just is right.
5:54
Speaker 1: He's got the look, he's got the attitude, he's got
5:58
Speaker 1: the tats, the black Hole energy, all that stuff. When
6:04
Speaker 1: you think of the Raiders, the old Raiders, back when
6:07
Speaker 1: they were good, you gotta be old. And now I
6:08
Speaker 1: think about that, you gotta be like an old dude
6:10
Speaker 1: to know that the Raiders were good. How pathetic is that?
6:13
Speaker 1: How much does that suck? That the Raiders haven't been
6:17
Speaker 1: relevant in almost an entire generation. They don't like the
6:20
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys are over a generation. The Raiders aren't
6:23
Speaker 1: far behind that rich Gannon Raider team. And then, of
6:28
Speaker 1: course we know what happened in the Super Bowl there
6:30
Speaker 1: didn't go so well. But back to Max Crosby. So
6:33
Speaker 1: Crosby's got the look, he's right out of Central casting,
6:36
Speaker 1: and he's got that whole attitude. However, if you think
6:41
Speaker 1: about this objectively, if the goal is to win it,
6:43
Speaker 1: keep in mind that we like to talk about everyone
6:45
Speaker 1: wants to win super Bowls. It's an ugly secret that
6:47
Speaker 1: not everyone really cares. They just want to make a
6:49
Speaker 1: lot of money, and they want to live in a
6:51
Speaker 1: city they like living in, and they want to do
6:53
Speaker 1: their time, get in the pension, playing in the NFL,
6:56
Speaker 1: and just be done. So they're not really that concerned
7:00
Speaker 1: about winning. But if let's just assume Max Crosby is
7:03
Speaker 1: somebody that does want to win, I need no way
7:07
Speaker 1: I want to win. By the time the Raiders are
7:11
Speaker 1: even remotely relevant, Max Crosby is going to be like
7:16
Speaker 1: a Civil War relic, if you know what I mean.
7:19
Speaker 1: He's twenty eight, I believe right now, Crosby, he's a
7:23
Speaker 1: defensive end, not exactly a long shelf life. It's just not.
7:28
Speaker 1: This is not a canister of honey that has an
7:31
Speaker 1: endless shelf life. There's no expiration date. Now that this
7:35
Speaker 1: is bread. It's fresh bread, not slice bread. It's fresh bread.
7:41
Speaker 1: And so that's it. And how many double digit seasons
7:44
Speaker 1: will Max Crosby have four or five years from now
7:47
Speaker 1: when the Raiders are actually possibly competitive? And Tom Brady,
7:52
Speaker 1: let's go back to Tom Brady. Tom Brady's little silver
7:55
Speaker 1: and black side hustle. How's that working out? Burn, baby, burn,
8:00
Speaker 1: and it's burning down right in front of our eyes.
8:02
Speaker 1: Thirty one nothing lost. The team quit on Pete Carroll.
8:05
Speaker 1: You don't lose thirty one nothing if you're trying. And
8:08
Speaker 1: the Chiefs called off the dogs arf they called them off.
8:12
Speaker 1: Could have been worse, could have been worse. So that
8:15
Speaker 1: is a gutlass football team. They've quit on their coach.
8:18
Speaker 1: And that's under Tom Brady. That's under Tom Brady. Everything
8:22
Speaker 1: Tom Brady has touched since he got to Vegas has
8:24
Speaker 1: turned to pooh. It just hands, not pooh, Richardson, actual pooh.
8:29
Speaker 1: From Pete Carroll the coach, the players quit on him.
8:32
Speaker 1: Gino Smith, the quarterback who sucks and they thought maybe
8:36
Speaker 1: Brady thought this was twenty nineteen or something like that,
8:38
Speaker 1: or twenty twenty two. I don't know, but it's not.
8:42
Speaker 1: And so you look at the Raiders right now from
8:44
Speaker 1: thirty thousand feet in the sky, and you examine what's
8:46
Speaker 1: going on there, and Brady has pulled off a masterclass.
8:51
Speaker 1: He doesn't own the majority of the Raiders. He's been
8:53
Speaker 1: given the de facto GM title where he's shadow running
8:58
Speaker 1: the Raiders, which means if the raid are good, Brady
9:01
Speaker 1: will get credit. If they're bad, he'll blame other people.
9:04
Speaker 1: That spy tech guy, his buddy, blame him. But the
9:08
Speaker 1: Raiders are a great content machine, and Brady's been able
9:12
Speaker 1: to light the franchise on fire, said Burn, Baby Burn,
9:16
Speaker 1: like he's got a zippo and a can of gasoline
9:19
Speaker 1: and just going for it. And if I'm the Lions,
9:24
Speaker 1: let me just workshop this. If I'm the Detroit Lions
9:28
Speaker 1: and I'm Dan Campbell and I'm all about biting kneecaps
9:32
Speaker 1: off and all that stuff every game. You look at Crosby,
9:37
Speaker 1: he's a Michigan guy. Didn't go to University of Michigan
9:39
Speaker 1: in Michigan State. He went to Eastern Michigan, which is
9:41
Speaker 1: the ugly redheaded stepchild of the Michigan colleges. Bring him
9:47
Speaker 1: back to Michigan. Who says, no, could you imagine putting
9:50
Speaker 1: Max Crosby and Aiden Hutchinson together and the Lions? This
9:55
Speaker 1: is the window of opportunity, This is it. This is
9:57
Speaker 1: the time for the Detroit Lions. So who cares about
9:59
Speaker 1: first round picks? I trade a first round draft pick
10:02
Speaker 1: and a conditional draft pick whatever to get Max Crosby.
10:07
Speaker 1: Who wouldn't. My god, you put those guys together and
10:12
Speaker 1: it's a championship or bust. And it's that way anyway.
10:16
Speaker 1: If you're a team like the Patriots and you're like,
10:19
Speaker 1: can we do a combo deal? Can we trade for
10:22
Speaker 1: Max Crosby and get Jacoby Myers and we'll trade you
10:25
Speaker 1: a couple of draft picks and that'll be that, And
10:27
Speaker 1: you know, for sure, let's do it. Let's make that happen.
10:29
Speaker 1: And so by no means just because the Patriots said
10:33
Speaker 1: we are not shopping Max Crosby doesn't mean he won't
10:35
Speaker 1: be traded. And if you don't agree with me, you
10:37
Speaker 1: might want to go back a few years ago, there
10:39
Speaker 1: was a player named Odell Beckham, and the general manager
10:42
Speaker 1: of the Giants, guy named Dave Gettleman, sounds like he
10:44
Speaker 1: should be doing commercials for air conditioning. And he said,
10:47
Speaker 1: we're not trading Odell Beckham. And then they traded Odell
10:50
Speaker 1: Beckham to the Cleveland Browns, and yeah, that worked out
10:54
Speaker 1: well for everyone involved. Now, speaking of Jacoby Myers, but
10:57
Speaker 1: turning the page, but we don't turn it that far.
11:00
Speaker 1: We keep it close to what we were talking about.
11:02
Speaker 1: So Jacoby Myers was asked if he still wants to
11:05
Speaker 1: be traded. You might remember before the season, Myers let
11:08
Speaker 1: the world know he was not happy with the Raiders.
11:10
Speaker 1: He didn't want to play with Gino Smith. Although he
11:12
Speaker 1: didn't say that, the implication was that he doesn't like
11:16
Speaker 1: playing with Gino Smith, so he wanted out. And he
11:19
Speaker 1: was asked to follow up the trade deadlines less than
11:21
Speaker 1: two weeks away. All right, you make the call, Jacoby Myers,
11:24
Speaker 1: do you still want to be traded? He said, two
11:26
Speaker 1: words for sure, for sure towards so question, how should
11:35
Speaker 1: the Raiders handle Jacoby Myers and his disgust with playing
11:41
Speaker 1: in Vegas? So this is not a ballplayer that you
11:46
Speaker 1: must have. Can we establish that? As like the opening statement, Yeah,
11:51
Speaker 1: these a nice player. Once a player goes public like that,
11:56
Speaker 1: very rarely does it end nicely. Very rarely does it
11:59
Speaker 1: end nicely. We all know that, and it sounds like
12:02
Speaker 1: a guy that's just not engaged. You can't put the
12:06
Speaker 1: toothpaste back in the tube, as we like to say
12:08
Speaker 1: in these parts. You cannot do it. And so if
12:10
Speaker 1: the Raiders, I guess they can try to coddle him,
12:15
Speaker 1: I wouldn't recommend that they can try that. And don't
12:18
Speaker 1: give me the fake group Hug I don't. I don't
12:22
Speaker 1: not need the fake group Hug I died. Don't you
12:24
Speaker 1: just ship him out? It's that's it. It's the four seasons,
12:28
Speaker 1: Bye bye baby from the four seasons. And Myers is
12:32
Speaker 1: not a cornerstone. He's not. He's a good player, he's
12:36
Speaker 1: a good receiver. He's a solid NFL receiver. He's on
12:38
Speaker 1: a bad team. It's not needed. You just you don't.
12:42
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, having no money and eating rob
12:46
Speaker 1: and noodles all the time and spending a couple grand
12:48
Speaker 1: on golf clubs. You really don't need that. You really
12:51
Speaker 1: don't need that, you know what I'm saying. You just don't.
12:53
Speaker 1: So you're at a fork in the road, you're at
12:55
Speaker 1: a turning point. And if you're the Raiders, you know,
12:59
Speaker 1: it's like again if Jacobe Meyer's running drag roots from
13:03
Speaker 1: from Geno Smith. Uh, just everything's toxic. You know, a
13:08
Speaker 1: team like the Patriots would would give you something which
13:10
Speaker 1: is not I'm not the draft pick guy. I'm the
13:13
Speaker 1: wrong talk show host. If you love draft picks and
13:15
Speaker 1: you get your pants down because of draft picks, I'm
13:17
Speaker 1: not that guy. I don't really care about Jeffies. But
13:20
Speaker 1: if the guy's not happy, it's like, who cares? You
13:21
Speaker 1: can can you suck with him? You can suck without him,
13:24
Speaker 1: So it doesn't really matter. All right, now, final point, quick, right, quick, right,
13:28
Speaker 1: we go to the NBA. I am told by sources
13:32
Speaker 1: close to the situation that the NBA season is underway.
13:37
Speaker 1: The flag is up on the NBA season. I did
13:40
Speaker 1: watch some of these games. I didn't think either one
13:43
Speaker 1: of the games rose to the level of the Malard monologue.
13:45
Speaker 1: So we will tell you the thunder squeezed by the Rockets,
13:50
Speaker 1: your classic NBA game where Houston played really well, was
13:54
Speaker 1: in control, not in control. They had the lead for
13:56
Speaker 1: the first like two and a half quarters, of the game,
13:59
Speaker 1: and the Rockets worked their way back. They went to overtime,
14:03
Speaker 1: and then they went to another overtime and Shay Jogis
14:06
Speaker 1: Alexander scored twenty four points in the fourth quarter and
14:10
Speaker 1: in overtime. We are told that is the most points
14:14
Speaker 1: by any NBA player in the fourth quarter and overtime
14:18
Speaker 1: in a season opener this century. So it's been a minute.
14:24
Speaker 1: It's been a minute. How did Kevin Durantu pretty quiet
14:28
Speaker 1: twenty three points? He only scored nine points in the
14:32
Speaker 1: second half and in the overtimes combined. That's it nine.
14:37
Speaker 1: So nine of his twenty three points came in the
14:39
Speaker 1: second half, in overtime. At fourteen and a half time
14:41
Speaker 1: finished with twenty three points. I'm told that's not good.
14:44
Speaker 1: And the Golden State Warriors beating the bad guys. Good
14:47
Speaker 1: job by the Warriors that beat the Lakers. Always loved
14:49
Speaker 1: when the Lakers lose. Good day for basketball fans there.
14:51
Speaker 1: When the Lakers lose, Lebron didn't play. He's probably read
14:55
Speaker 1: reading that Malcolm X book or watching The Godfather, So
14:58
Speaker 1: he didn't play. Jimmy Butler, is there anything more entertaining
15:02
Speaker 1: than watching a manstreet foul? Shots sixteen of sixteen from
15:05
Speaker 1: the charity stripe for Jimmy Butler, and he got it
15:08
Speaker 1: done from the charity strip Now Luca had forty three
15:11
Speaker 1: points the Lakers lose. How did DeAndre Ayton do? Mid
15:15
Speaker 1: season form? For DeAndre? Eighton your classic stat line for
15:18
Speaker 1: DeAndre Eaighton, the guy that's incompetent at basketball ten point
15:23
Speaker 1: six rebounds, four turnovers, no assis and a big LOL
15:27
Speaker 1: for DeAndre Ayton? How do you do now? The story
15:31
Speaker 1: that did get my attention if you're watching the NBA,
15:33
Speaker 1: it was on NBC and also on Peacock, the debut
15:39
Speaker 1: of the NBA agreement. Now, we were told by the
15:42
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal, that is a very bougie business newspaper
15:48
Speaker 1: based in Manhattan. The Wall Street Journal tells us that
15:50
Speaker 1: some NBC executives are sounding alarm bells, very dramatically, very
15:56
Speaker 1: concerned that the networks deal with the NBA. They're just
16:00
Speaker 1: not even make money. They give this huge card too
16:02
Speaker 1: incisee check to the the NBA and they're not going
16:06
Speaker 1: to get good ROI return on investment. So let us
16:09
Speaker 1: discuss the question. NBA executives said to be unhappy. This
16:15
Speaker 1: was before they even started the Games said to be
16:19
Speaker 1: unhappy with the NBA deal. Why is this being reported
16:22
Speaker 1: as news? That's my question. Why is this being reported
16:26
Speaker 1: as news. This is spam, is what it is. It's
16:31
Speaker 1: obviously a huge overpay. Even if you know nothing about finances,
16:35
Speaker 1: you can't balance your own personal finances. We all know.
16:39
Speaker 1: We every man, woman and child knows that this is
16:43
Speaker 1: the way it works. I remember getting educated a person
16:46
Speaker 1: that I was friends with in the you know, many
16:48
Speaker 1: years ago. I won't I'll date myself if I say.
16:50
Speaker 1: When he's an executive at ABC and they had just
16:53
Speaker 1: won the bidding for this massive NFL contract, and I say,
16:59
Speaker 1: what's going He said, well, we're gonna lose money on it.
17:01
Speaker 1: We know that, but we're gonna get people to watch
17:03
Speaker 1: our crappy sitcoms and that's what we're doing it for.
17:06
Speaker 1: And okay, so you know going in you're gonna lose money.
17:09
Speaker 1: He says, it's called the Lost Leader. I said, what's
17:11
Speaker 1: a lost leader? Said, well, you lose money on this,
17:13
Speaker 1: but you think you make it on the other side.
17:15
Speaker 1: So NBC is paying twenty seven billion with a capital
17:20
Speaker 1: B twenty seven billion for the privilege of losing up
17:23
Speaker 1: to one point four billion in the early years for
17:29
Speaker 1: their new shiny toy, the NBA. This is clearly why
17:33
Speaker 1: Benny Versus the Penny got canceled by NBC. They had
17:35
Speaker 1: to pay for the NBA. I'm bitter, How dare you?
17:38
Speaker 1: I'm bitter Benny? Spoiler alert. These things always work out
17:41
Speaker 1: this way where you lose money on it always and again,
17:44
Speaker 1: they're not buying basketball. It's being sold as basketball. They're
17:47
Speaker 1: not buying basketball. They're buying subscriptions to Peacock and it's
17:52
Speaker 1: a gift basket of hope. They know, like all of
17:56
Speaker 1: these businesses, the key is a subscription based business because
18:02
Speaker 1: a certain percentage of people will pay for a service
18:06
Speaker 1: that is a monthly fee, and they're so bad about
18:09
Speaker 1: their finances they will pay it until they put them
18:13
Speaker 1: in the grave. They just forget about it. And these
18:17
Speaker 1: businesses know a lot of the whole gym model. For examples,
18:21
Speaker 1: you pay a monthly fee to go to the gym,
18:22
Speaker 1: and many people don't go to the gym, but they
18:24
Speaker 1: keep paying for the gym because they like the idea
18:27
Speaker 1: of going to the gym, Like, well, I don't want
18:29
Speaker 1: to cancel the gym because maybe I'll get my fat
18:31
Speaker 1: ass to the gym, and so you keep paying for
18:33
Speaker 1: the gym just on the off chance you're gonna go
18:36
Speaker 1: work out when you never work out because you're a
18:38
Speaker 1: fat pig and you don't want to work out. And
18:40
Speaker 1: I get it. I'm the same way. But that's how
18:42
Speaker 1: they get you. And so they know a certain percentage
18:45
Speaker 1: of people are gonna sign up for Peacock and they're
18:47
Speaker 1: not gonna ever watch it doesn't matter. They're gonna get
18:50
Speaker 1: a monthly fee. Drip drip drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip,
18:53
Speaker 1: drip drip, money money made. That's what they're gonna get.
18:57
Speaker 1: So I do enjoy the very dramatic reporting, considering these
19:00
Speaker 1: executives at NBC were the same ones that agreed to
19:05
Speaker 1: the Giant deal in the first place. It's kind of
19:07
Speaker 1: like Woody Johnson we talked about last time. Woody Johnson
19:10
Speaker 1: is like ripping Justin Fields, which is correct. Woody Johnson's
19:12
Speaker 1: absolutely right, Justin Fields is incompetent, but he also agreed
19:16
Speaker 1: he signed up to say, oh but okay, with that
19:17
Speaker 1: guy's my quarterback, It's like, oh okay, Like NBC is like,
19:20
Speaker 1: we'll give the nbal's money. Now they're like, well, I
19:22
Speaker 1: don't like of course. The other argument is you can
19:24
Speaker 1: always find people that don't like something. I'm sure you
19:26
Speaker 1: could if you wanted to write this story, if you're
19:28
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal, you could find a group of
19:30
Speaker 1: NBA executives or NBC executives that love the NBA deal
19:33
Speaker 1: think it's great. It's a slam dunk. But that's not
19:37
Speaker 1: as good a story. It's better to find the people
19:39
Speaker 1: that are upset, which likely are news people because they
19:41
Speaker 1: cut the news budget from what I read in one
19:43
Speaker 1: of the trade papers, so they're likely upset about that.
19:46
Speaker 1: So don't we pretend to be shocked. Oh I'm so shocked.
19:50
Speaker 1: Oh my god. That is a sport, the NBA. And
19:54
Speaker 1: we'll get into it when the playoffs come around. We'll
19:56
Speaker 1: talk about it if there's a good story. I'm not against that.
19:58
Speaker 1: It's not my favorite thing. I'm not really excited about it.
20:02
Speaker 1: But they've had sagging regular season television ratings for years.
20:06
Speaker 1: That's been consistent, and so they're not gonna be able
20:09
Speaker 1: to cover the tab on this, and NBC will pay
20:11
Speaker 1: more for the NBA. This is amazing to me. They're
20:14
Speaker 1: paying more for NBA games on a per game basis
20:18
Speaker 1: than the NFL. And NBC's got the Sunday Night, the
20:22
Speaker 1: most important game of the weekends on Sunday Night, and
20:26
Speaker 1: they're paying more to broadcast Oklahoma City. It's like, okay, bonkers, bonkers, bonkers,
20:34
Speaker 1: all right now. The NBA is where your stars rest
20:38
Speaker 1: during the regular season. They're unengaged. They use load management
20:42
Speaker 1: to rest during the regular season. The ratings do the
20:44
Speaker 1: dipsy do, and the postseason stretches longer and longer and
20:48
Speaker 1: longer and longer than a bad dinner part of your
20:51
Speaker 1: wife took you to and you didn't want to go
20:53
Speaker 1: to and you hate the people you're with, that kind
20:54
Speaker 1: of thing, right in the end, In the end, the
20:58
Speaker 1: league cash is the check no matter what, whether you
21:01
Speaker 1: watch or not. NBC's got to deal with the headaches
21:03
Speaker 1: and all that. But again, they're trying to get you
21:05
Speaker 1: to subscribe, and they know a certain percentage of people
21:08
Speaker 1: are just going to subscribe, set it and forget it,
21:11
Speaker 1: and pay that every month even though they don't use
21:13
Speaker 1: the service. And I got to figure out how to
21:15
Speaker 1: get on that hustle, Like what can I do to
21:17
Speaker 1: get in in that hustle. Will you just blindly cut
21:19
Speaker 1: money every month? That's the way to do it. It is
21:22

23:48
Speaker 1: if Max Crosby cared about winning, he wouldn't have signed
23:52
Speaker 1: that contract extension back at March. However, I can see
23:55
Speaker 1: a trade request before that last year of his contract,
24:00
Speaker 1: and he's got to do it undercover. Those Scrooge like
24:02
Speaker 1: these guys say a lot of them like to say
24:05
Speaker 1: I want to win. It's like Miles Garrett in Cleveland.
24:08
Speaker 1: He also was talking about I want to win Super Bowls. Well,
24:11
Speaker 1: he signed with the Browns. He don't want to win
24:12
Speaker 1: if you just stay with the Browns, Max Crosby, as
24:15
Speaker 1: you said the same thing. If you really are worried
24:17
Speaker 1: about winning, you would leave the Raiders the way they
24:20
Speaker 1: have been run. But he does not, And Mark from
24:23
Speaker 1: Queen's Right Sin he says, almost choked. There you go,
24:28
Speaker 1: a fat pig going to the gym. Thank you, you're welcome. Mark, No,
24:34
Speaker 1: I'm the same way. Listen, you sign up for the gym,
24:36
Speaker 1: you forget about it, and you just keep paying it
24:39
Speaker 1: every single week, every single week. Who else do we have?
24:44
Speaker 1: Ferg dog rights and says Ben, what are the chances?
24:47
Speaker 1: The Lakers finished the season to eighty two. They look
24:50
Speaker 1: terrible against Golden State The only healthy James on the
24:54
Speaker 1: team is Bronnie. I've checked the schedule and I couldn't
24:58
Speaker 1: find any wins. I'm yeah, that's not a bad take
25:01
Speaker 1: for dark. No one else has that take. It does
25:04
Speaker 1: not look like the Raiders or the Lakers rather are
25:07
Speaker 1: going to win a game based on what I saw.
25:09
Speaker 1: They have no momentum. They have the wrong momentum and
25:12
Speaker 1: John Smoltz taught me about momentum, so they haven't won
25:15
Speaker 1: a game. Things are really bad. How soon before JJ
25:18
Speaker 1: Reddick gets fired? Do we know when he's gonna get fired?

29:13

Speaker 6: to the Super Bowl. What scaries If they do well,
29:33
Speaker 6: the Eagles could knock them out of the playoffs because
29:36
Speaker 6: how good the Eagles are and their quarterback Jalen Hurts

Speaker 1: weekend podcast. I did ten minutes. So did I do that?
31:58
Speaker 1: I went to, uh, what was itlast week? That's just

32:17
Speaker 1: be gone. Man, he was on hold for a while.
32:19
Speaker 1: Let's go to DJ Mike. Who's next? It is? The
32:21
Speaker 1: Ben Maler Show on Fox mentioned a fireable offense and
32:27
Speaker 1: the news did come out here the New York Giants.
32:30
Speaker 1: That is a football team, a bad one. They have
32:33
Speaker 1: released they have fired their kicker, that Jude mcac Mee
32:38
Speaker 1: has his name something close to that. I butchered it.
32:40
Speaker 1: But they've fired him, the guy that missed the two
32:43
Speaker 1: extra points against the Broncos. So he is gone and
32:48
Speaker 1: they have decided to I believe Graham Gano is going
32:54
Speaker 1: to be the kick. I believe I read that anyway.
32:56
Speaker 1: DJ Mike, what's going on? DJ Mike?
32:58
Speaker 7: Yeah, good morning. And you know what about two forty
33:01
Speaker 7: here Central Time on a Wednesday, and the Raiders still
33:04
Speaker 7: have three first downs from Sundays. Hey, listen, if people
33:10
Speaker 7: like Max Crosby and Miles Garrett they want to play
33:12
Speaker 7: on last place teams that have no direction, no chances
33:15
Speaker 7: of winning a title anytime soon, some of these players
33:19
Speaker 7: then they prefer just to be paid. They want the money.
33:23
Speaker 7: They don't care about the jewelry that comes along with
33:25
Speaker 7: the world title. There's countless baseball players, golfers, I mean,
33:30
Speaker 7: you name the sport, there is a percentage of players
33:33
Speaker 7: that don't care about winning a title. They may say
33:36
Speaker 7: that in the public, but they really don't. They just
33:37
Speaker 7: want that check. And you know, if you know Max
33:42
Speaker 7: Crosby and Mahomes, they have this extra competitive spirit where
33:48
Speaker 7: outside of the lines they do charity work together on
33:52
Speaker 7: the you know, on the outside of football, but once
33:54
Speaker 7: they get in on the field, you know, they give
33:57

34:33
Speaker 7: the podcast.
34:34
Speaker 1: That's right, baby, the Power of the Overnight Show, which
34:38
Speaker 1: is a podcast for your son. There and DJ Mike.
34:41

34:43
Speaker 1: to your son listening to the podcast. I think that's
34:45
Speaker 1: very similar to those two things. There is a correlation
34:47
Speaker 1: between these two things. So now your son cannot stop
34:50
Speaker 1: listening to the podcast, otherwise the Chiefs will start losing.
