  Speaker 1: Oh, what's going on. Welcome in Happy Friday to you.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Officially in Friday, now that the West Coast is on board.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Very nice, very nice. Hope all is well. You know,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: I do think there is.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Such a thing as being too honest, and we got
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: a taste of that on Wednesday, compliments of wide receiver
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill. Now, Tyreek Hill is rehabbing from a devastating
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: left knee injury.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: So it's about.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Ten months removed since this injury, which you know, if
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: you're doing a timeline here is about as long as
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: the NBA has been looking into Kawhi Leonard maybe taking
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: money under the table. We still don't have an answer
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: on that. But you've got Tyreek Hill, who he had
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: this devastating left knee injury and we're ten months removed,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: and so he went on YouTube and he gave us
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: a little update. Now we've condensed it over here because
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: this is about a minute and a half. You know
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: what that you just need a good twenty second sober here.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Let's cut to the chase. This is what Tyreek Hill
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: says about his left knee as he's rehabbing, trying to
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: get healthy again, trying to end up on a new
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: NFL team because the Dolphins released him based on this
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: in his contract and also his health status right having
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: this devastating knee injury.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: So he's a free agent right now, and.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: He's just like, hey, by the way, just you guys know,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: this is what I'm dealing with over here. Here's what
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill had to say on his YouTube channel when they.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: Told me I'll be able to walk in and if
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: you don't know what's gonna happen in your future, now
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: look at me. So it's about ten months after they're
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: doing two surgeries. My left leg is the one that
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: I injured. I have no power in my left leg
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: at all. So I'm trying to regain all the power
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: back in my left leg. But it is one day
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: at a time.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Now, the first part of it was not the greatest audio.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: It kind of sounds muffled, sort of like underwater or something.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: But he basically says the doctors were like, yeah, you
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: might not walk again.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: He's skin he threw that out there, like you might.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Not walk Tyreek, and he's like, now look at me.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: And then he also said this was the most important
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: part right here.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: I have no power in my left leg at all.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: There no power in my left leg at all. Nothing, Lorena,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: I got nothing. I'm working on it.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: But he was so good, he was he was awesome.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: I think there's such a thing as being too honest.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I think what Tyreek Hill said in this video, it'd
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: be like approaching a girl and saying, hey, my name
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: is John and I have a terrible drinking problem. You know,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: like the girl's gonna be like nice to meet you, John, bye,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Like doom, You're just darting off right there. This is
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: too much information. And so Tyreek, this is good for
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: a you know, like a YouTube video. And he's trying
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: to get healthy again, trying to get his body right.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: He's working very hard. But all NFL teams here is this.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: I have no power in my left leg at all.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: That's all they hear.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: And it's like, all right, just kind of let us
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: know when you do have power in that left leg there, Tyreek,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: that's what NFL teams are thinking.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: So it's just interesting.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: I get it where school for a YouTube video, but
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: I think it's great to put it out there in
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: terms of getting on the next NFL team. But you're
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: seeing more and more in this maybe this is just
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: like a younger generation type thing. I don't know, and
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: I'm not trying to sound like the old boomer guy,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: but Tyreek Hill, he's thirty two, you know, he's not
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: like young, young, born in the two thousands young type thing.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: But you're seeing this more and more.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: I thought this with Bear's quarterback Caleb Williams, remember heading
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: into last season, he just threw it out there where
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: he was like, yeah, I didn't even really want to
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: be drafted by the Bears, And it was just like
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: what my thought was, I don't know why you would
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: want to put this out there, because it could make
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: things potentially harder for you if you just kind of
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: like put yourself back to when he made those comments.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: So this is the.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Off season after his rookie year, Caleb Williams just put
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: it out there like, yeah, I didn't even want the
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Bears to draft me at first, That's what he said
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: at first, and he kind of warmed up to the idea,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: but at first he wanted no part of being a
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Chicago Bear. And my thought was, again, that's great if
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: you're retired and you just throw out a fun fact
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: in a book or something like that. Let's say you
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: had a distinguished career, and it's just like a fun footnote.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: It's like a fun fact, like, yeah, I didn't even want.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: To go to the Bears and I won two rings
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: and the rest is history and all is great, and
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: it's just like, ah, it just lands completely differently. But
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: after a rookie season when Caleb Williams struggled, when Jaden
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Daniels outplayed him. Jaden Daniels was the toast of the
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: NFL as the rookie quarterback with the Washington Commanders, made
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: it all the way to the NFC Championship Game, had
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: a brilliant rookie season. He was the number two overall pick.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: He significantly outplayed Caleb Williams, who was the number one
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: overall pick. And so it's like at that time, you
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: really want to put it out there, like I didn't
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: even want to get drafted by the Bears at first.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: I just thought like that's a little bit too much information. Now,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: to Caleb Williams' credit, he played really well, took a
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: significant step forward in year two, won a playoff game,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: nearly beat the Rams in a second playoff game, had
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: a handful of interceptions in that game, but all things considered,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: a very successful season for Caleb Williams.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: So that's a footnote right now.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: But if year two went poorly, that could have been
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: thrown in his face. Some of these fans they're crazy, man,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: like you don't even want to be a Bear and
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: think about Caleb Williams also where there's just something about
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: the guy where he gets criticized more heavily than other
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks have gotten criticized. You could go back to college
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: and he was just a polarizing guy. There are a
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: lot of people that called him out, like, oh, he
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: cried in his mother's arms, which I thought was stupid.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: In terms of the criticism, it was a close game
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: against Washington that basically wrecked their season. He's emotional after
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: a loss. I have no issue with that whatsoever. That
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: was a big deal. He was criticized heavily for that.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: He's criticized for painting his nails. He's just under the microscope.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: And so if year two didn't go well, you're telling
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: me there aren't a lot of Bears fans that are.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Like, he doesn't even want to be a part of
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: this organization. I don't know. It was just it was
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: an interesting thing.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: To throw out there where a lot of these younger athletes,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: that's just how they operate. There's like I just threw
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: it out there, man, like, yeah, so be it. It's
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: just out there. It's good for the here and now,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: it's good for whatever, a YouTube video, a social media post,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: in interview like whatever it is. They just throw it
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: out there and they don't really think about how this
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: could come back to bite me.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: So I just think it's interesting.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: But the Tyreek Hill thing, I don't know, man, I
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: think that's a little bit too much honesty.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Right there.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: I have no power in my left leg at all, nothing,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: no power right now, working on it, Loraina. I'll get
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: back to you when I have power. I got nothing
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: for you right now, no power, no push off.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: And I'm known.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Like that's the thing. Tyreek Hill's game. He's known for
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: being fast, he's known for being quick. It's this whole game.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Instead of the cheetah, now he can be the flamingo.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Really, it's that's that's a that's a belief, Like the
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: leg bending the wrong way. That's gruesome by you right there. Actually,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: but it's true. Yeah, it's I don't know, it's a
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: little bit too honest, And I hope he can rehab
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: and get back because just in terms of an NFL talent,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: it's crazy some of the seasons that he's had. If
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: you look at this in Miami, he had two seasons
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: with over seventeen hundred yards.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: That's really good, man.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: And you go back to his days with Mahomes and
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: the Chiefs, and he's had three seasons with double digit
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: touchdown catches. He's got five not see No, he's got
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: six seasons with at least eleven hundred yards. He's been
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: a really good NFL receiver. And now he's had this
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: gruesome leg injury and he gave us an update and
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: it's like he's done a lot of work. He's you know,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: he's gotten to a level that some of his doctors
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: never thought he would get to.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: But he still obviously has a long way to go.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: So I don't know. I just I don't know. I'm
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: not trying to nitpick it.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying, if you're his agent, are you like, hey, Tyreek,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: caught the YouTube video, great stuff, man, love it.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: More of that?
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Or are you just like, hey, Tyreek, this doesn't really
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: help us get on the next NFL team. You know,
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: maybe maybe i'd be so honest next time, maybe like, hey,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: rehab's going great. Look at me, Look at me. Look
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: how much progress I'm making. He's jumping out of the pool.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: It's like, all right, some of the strengths coming back.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: You don't really want to put it out there on
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: wax that.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, I have no power in my
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: left leg at all.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: If you're the agent, you're like a little less of that,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: a little less honesty there, Tyreek, let's leave some cards
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: off the table. I think that would help us find
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: our next NFL team, maybe a little bit quicker. But hey,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: we got injuries going on in the NFL already.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Believe it or not.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: This is not a huge name, but the Carolina Panthers
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: they're fully open for training camp.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: We've got the Cardinals and the Panthers.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Everybody is there for training camp because those teams play
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame game very soon here August sixth,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: so we're ramping up toward that. And the Panthers had
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: an injury in camp. You got Nick Scorton going down.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: I know, not a huge name, but had five sacks
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: as a rookie and with the Panthers trying to take
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: a step forward. That's a significant loss for them. That's
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: tough when you're not even putting the pads on yet
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: and he tore his ACL so he's done for the year.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Just boom like that.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: And it really it's a reminder that we'll do all
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: of our NFL predictions over the next handful of weeks
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: as we ramp up toward the season, and you'll I
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: fall into this trap sometimes too. But all of this stuff,
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: all these rosters, all these games aren't played on paper. Okay,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: you might hear someone say, you know, I've got just
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: some I've got the Titans to win the AFC South,
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: and you're like, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: your mind, And it's just like, well, the Jags aren't.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: It's not set in stone they're going to remain healthy.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: It's not set in stone that you know the Colts
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: are gonna be blessed with better health. Or it's like
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: when the injury bug starts hitting teams, things change so fast.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: So I'm not telling you there are no dumb predictions.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: There are, but some predictions that you think are outlandish,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Like what are you talking about the injury bug can
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: make some crazy things happen in the NFL. So just
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: when you think a team like the Rams, I love
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: the Rams roster, I think they're I think they're in
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: great shape to challenge for a super Bowl this season.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I would never be as bolish as to say, oh,
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: you know, write it down in you know, if not
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: pen like strong pencil, they're going to be in the
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: super Bowl, you know, market book itt blah blah. It's
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: like Stafford could get have a back injury and weak
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: two and everything changes, you know. So it's just life
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: in the NFL. Man, So Nick Gorton goes down. But
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: the biggest picture is keep that in mind when you're
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: doing these NFL predictions or reacting to somebody else's NFL predictions.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: There's some stuff that you don't see coming whatsoever. And
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: it happens every single year. Man, it's like clockwork. This
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: year will be no different. By the way, Friday, now
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: that we're in Friday today, we've got the Seahawks and
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: the Patriots. They open camp. So the super Bowl champs,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks, the defending champs, and the Patriots they get
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: it on in Week one. It's the first game of
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: the entire NFL season. So they start camp today on Friday,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: So there you go. Four teams will be completely up
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: and running full blown training camp.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: And it's just this.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: Over the course of this next week, everybody will be
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: up to speed and be in training camp. So ball
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: is around the corner. And whenever that's the case, it's
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: always a good thing, always a good thing, all right.

• 13:29
  Speaker 2: music rabbit Hole, starring a guy who was just recently
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: in the news for something that didn't go very well.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: But the music tie in and some of the other
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: sound bites are absolutely fantastic. We'll walk down that road.

• 14:36
  Speaker 2: believe it or not. So Cam Scataboo Cam was in
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: the news because he had a botched backflip at Fanatics
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: FanFest and it's gotten a lot of reaction. It's funny,
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: like the Giants seem to be a team that's getting
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: a decent amount of attention for a couple of reasons.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: Where you know, it's the botch backflip, it's John Harbaugh's
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: reaction to that, and it's also John Harbaugh giving a
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: speech in front of his new Giants team.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Now we'll go peace by piece.
• 15:10

• 15:13
  Speaker 2: love that one, Lorena, it's my go to right there.
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: You love that one.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: I do love that one.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: But you know, if you look at first off, the
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: backflip not a wise move by Cam Scataboo. He just
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: had a you know, he had ankle surgery in the
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: off season, he missed most of the last year, and
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: he tried this backflip to show how healthy he was,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: and he said the floor was a little bit too bouncy,
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: and then he kind of went a little bit too
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: far in the air and did not stick. The landing
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: fell down, and it's just like, Cam, what are you doing?
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: You're scat mean, you're killing us. And then John Harbaugh's
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: reaction to it was he was like, dude, at least
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: stick the landing. I think I was smart by John Harbaugh,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: because look, if you're if you're smooth as a coach,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: what you say publicly might be completely different than what
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: you say privately. I mean, what you say publicly is
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: you don't sell Cam scataboo out. He's this young player,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: He's full of excitement, He's got all this juice.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: He's just like raring to go. The last thing you
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: want to do.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Is cage that, you know, the last thing you want
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: to do is dampen that. And so publicly you have
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: his back. You're like, at least stick the landing, dude,
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: you know. But yeah, he's ready to go. He's worked hard.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: You had it positive positive positive. If it's just you
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: and Cam face to face, you think John Harbaugh is
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: selling the same message face to face. There's no way
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: he might not be superative negative, you know, hard ass coach.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: But he's like Cam, like, you got to think too, buddy,
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: you know, like, let's think long term here too.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: How old is Cam? Cam is a young guy, I'll
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: look it up.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: Is a he like twenty two or twenty three?
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: Now?
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: I did read he said that he's been doing backflip
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: since he was four years old, so he's seasoned on
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: the back backflip. He really thought he was gonna get it.
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: He was shocked by the springboard, you know, and I'm
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: going to give him a little bit of credit for
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: that because I know that if I could not do
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: a backflip, I am not going to attempt to do one.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Okay, so he's twenty four, he's twenty four and a half. Basically,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: we'll give him that twenty four and a half like
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: post surgery cam. You know, I don't care if you
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: have a life with backflip. You know, historyonics going on
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: over here. You know, it's let's let's be smart, let's
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: say err on the side of caution. But I think
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: it was smart for John Harbaugh to kind of ish
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: say what you're saying right now, Loraina is just don't
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: sell him out and have a different message when it's
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: you know, behind closed doors and that sort of thing.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: I think that's just being a savvy coach. Now. The
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: one thing with John Harbaugh, he.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Gave a speech and he's just getting clowned for this speech.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: I just don't see what the big deal is. He
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: basically is one of the only audio cuts I didn't
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: grab for you guys, grabbed like forty five pieces of
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: music that I probably won't even get to. It's classic.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Like Coop and I used to work with each other
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: a long time ago, and I was notorious for asking
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Bobo to get like fifteen clips ready, and I would call.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: For like three of them to be played.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: So I grabbed all this audio from a Music and Beyond,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: but it's really not that great of audio. If it
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: was great, I would play it for you. But John
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Harbaugh is just getting clowned for addressing the Giants and
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: he basically starts off and he's like, hey, hey, you
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: guys ready, and they're like yeah. He's like a little
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: nervous and they're like no. He's like, I'm a little nervous.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: You know, I'm stand in front of the New York
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Giants and he just emphasizes it. He keeps saying it
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: over and over again. The New York Football Giants, and
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: they're like, yeah, man, we're the Giants. It's not like
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: al Pacino in any given Sunday where we clawed with
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: our fingernails for that inch and it's just inspiring.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: You want to run through a wall.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: It's not a big deal. It's like the beginning of
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: training campusy off season. This is not win one for
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: the GIP or territory you know, I just don't understand
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: why it's that big of a deal, but he's getting
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: clowned for it. Nevertheless, that's what we're dealing with right now.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: All right, I get to the Ella Lingley cuts here
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: in just a second. Lorana, I know you're excited for that.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: You'll learn a couple of things over here. Maybe you
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: might learn something. I learned something for sure. We'll get
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: to that momentarily. First, though, let's go to the calls here.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Our girl, Andrea is in Berkeley wants to check in. Andrea,
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Good morning to you, Howard Things, Welcome to Fox Sports Radio.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Hi, who are you good? How are things good?
• 19:39
  Speaker 7: I'm enjoying your show. We got a scorpio trifecta. We
• 19:43
  Speaker 7: got you, Coop and Lorena.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: That's right, the scorpios are in effect here tonight, no
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: doubt about it.
• 19:50
  Speaker 7: Yes, and I was looking at Lebron James Sports astrology.
• 19:55
  Speaker 7: He's born December thirtieth, nineteen eighty four, Akron Ohan, I know,
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: actually the same hospital as Steph Curry. That was an
• 20:04
  Speaker 7: interesting bit of information. And he's a super ambitious Capricorn,
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: so I think, you know, he's very cautious and pragmatic
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: about his next move. And as you may know, Mercury's
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: been retrograde June twenty ninth to July twenty third, So
• 20:21
  Speaker 7: this came out of retrograde today and that's you know,
• 20:24
  Speaker 7: when Mercury is retrograde, As you may know, it's not
• 20:27
  Speaker 7: an auspicious times assigned contracts or do any kind of negotiations.
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: It was communication. There might be some travel delays and
• 20:38
  Speaker 7: you know technology, staff, foods, so basically not a good
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: time to negotiate contracts or assign them. So I think
• 20:45
  Speaker 7: he's utilizing an astrologer, I mean, Aaron Rodgers does. It's
• 20:49
  Speaker 7: getting more and more complex and commonplace, and he's waiting,
• 20:54
  Speaker 7: and Mercury's at a retro shade back to one hundred
• 20:57
  Speaker 7: percent August tenth. It'll be interesting to see what transpires
• 21:03
  Speaker 7: in the next couple of weeks.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: You know what's funny, Andrea is, Yes, out of all
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: the things I've heard said about Lebron over the years,
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: and it's been a lot of things, I never knew
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: he was a day away from being a New Year's Eve, Baby,
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: I had no idea he was at December thirtieth, you know, Baby,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I didn't know that.
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: Right, Yeah, he sure is, and yeah, sure right a
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: day before the news here.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, yeah, I had no idea.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: It's funny because I've heard the amount of words, the
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: amount of sentences said about Lebron.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: It's one thing I never knew. I never knew that
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: good stuff.
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: Yes, in the same hospital being born as Steph Curry
• 21:48
  Speaker 7: in Akron, Ohio. Another bit of information.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it's a good one right there, Andrea, very nice.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: Everything good with you? Things well, thumbs.
• 21:58
  Speaker 7: Up, yes to go fund me, Thank you for your contribution.
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: And yeah, definitely uh taking glad Mercury's out of retrograde.
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: I'll put it that way.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: There you go. Very nice. Well that's all.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: It's good for all of us right here, Andrewa, no
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: doubt about that. But thanks for checking in.
• 22:17
  Speaker 7: Yeah, thank you, great show.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Always good to talk with you. There she is,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Andrea and Berkeley.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I didn't know. That's funny.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know why I'm so blown away, Like holy cow,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: December thirtieth. I just never knew that. But the things
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: that you could say, all right, just name everything you
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: know about Lebron.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: It's just like, all right, he was.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Drafted, oh three, he won a title here, he competed
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: for this. But you could go on and on and
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: on and on. If someone was like, what month was
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: he born in? I'm like, I have no idea, why
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: would I know?
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Now I know it?
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Now I know thanks to Andrew. Let's go to d
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: D and Washington has a thought for us.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: What's going on?
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: D D?
• 22:55
  Speaker 6: Not a whole lot? Okay, just playing here. And it's
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: funny because the prior Foller you mentioned the two people
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: I was going to talk about, Lebron James and Aaron Rodgers.
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: I'm going to say this slowly so I don't get
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: you guys in trouble. I really don't shim and get
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: what they do where they go.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: Please watch your language.
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: I said it backwards, but anyway, they both need to
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: sit down their assets and just go off into retirement.
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: The only thing that I think can clean any of
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: this up is Broady, and I am not talking about
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: Lebron's son. I'm talking about the paper towels, because this
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: whole thing is just I don't care who he picks.
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: He's done retire. Go off before you make a fool
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: out of yourself, like Aaron Rodgers has well.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: I would say this d D.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: If you didn't care, Why would you call in and
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: talk about him?
• 24:01
  Speaker 6: He calls every time I turn on sports radio. That's
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: all I hear. He's going here, he's going there, he
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: might be here. I mean just oh, he's having Rogers
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: both and like a lot of sports figures, all they're
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: about it is there. How much can I get people
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: to follow me? And it's just I don't know. I
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: just find it annoying. I get your point, though, that
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: is a valid point, because I've sat on the phone
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: here for over an hour waiting to make my comment.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry you're on hold for that long. I didn't
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: know you were on hold for that long.
• 24:34
  Speaker 6: That's fine. I mean, you guys are you're busy and
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: sorry if I offended to the lady on the show,
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: that was not my intent.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: No, you're good, Yeah, No, you're fine.
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: DD.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: It's all good.
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Hey, listen, I get it.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: Lebron and Aaron Rodgers aren't everybody's cup of tea. But
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: it's funny, man, Like, Uh, chances are you'll still probably
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: watch him. I don't know if you're an NBA fan
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: at all, or probably a football fan, but I don't
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: know if if like the Steelers, are playing on Sunday
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: night football.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: I don't know that You're like, oh, it's Aaron Rodgers. No,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: thank you. You're probably watching the.
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: Game, and depend on who he's playing.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: I would watch Aaron Rodgers playing sooner than I would
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: you know, whoever would would be uh, you know.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Drew Aller. I'd watch anybody, honestly.
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: But I mean, I'm not lockstandaby one particular team. I'm
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: just I like watching exciting games.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, hey, fair enough.
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: I don't think he's one to them that point anymore.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: No problem, d D. All right, man, I appreciate you
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: good stuff.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: There's d D not a fan of the Lebron Aaron
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Rodgers drag it out type stuff.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: I just think this. I don't know, man, I think
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: a lot.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Of people get so tired of the here and now
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: and they don't look into the future whatsoever. Even if
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: you hate Lebron, you can hate watch him. I'd much
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: rather hate watch someone than not have any reason to
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: really care, you know, Like hate is good in sports,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: so like it's just funny.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: To me that anyone who's like just go away for good.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: If you have a strong enough feeling that you want
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: them gone, chances are. You're probably entertained to some degree
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: by watching them play. I just think there's a big
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: difference between the off season and the real season, especially
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: the playoffs. Come NBA playoff time, you aren't more interested
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: in Giannis Lebron bam playoffs. I think he's going to
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Miami playoff series against the Knicks. You're not more interested
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: with Lebron on the court going up against the Knicks.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: You're gonna tell me you're you're more interested with him
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: not on the court. That's just there's no way I
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: would ever believe that.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: So I get it.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: The off season is annoying, and you flip on this
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: sports station and that sports station, and here are my predictions.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I don't have any news today.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: Lebron's still head made up as mine, and you're just like,
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: oh my gosh, I can't take this anymore. But fast
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: forward to May. Right in the think of the playoffs,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be better for him to be around. So
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: I just don't buy that you truly want him gone
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: for good When people say that, I just I think
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: it's here and now instead of when it finally.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Does roll around.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: If we get back to SCAT and get to the
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: music here, So Skataboo with the field backflip right here.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: This was interesting because the backflip shows you how Scat
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: is wired, you know, like he is full go all the.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Time, instant energy.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Maybe the decision making is a little bit shoddy at times.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: But he is bringing the juice. And so he was
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: on the Bring the Juice.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: Podcast coincidentally enough recently, and this is what he had
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: to say about pregame music. You might think he's listening
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: to like death metal or something pretty intense. This is
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: what Scatt said, check it out.
• 27:58
  Speaker 8: I'm like the calmest person of games. Yeah, like Australian Street. Oh,
• 28:05
  Speaker 8: sticky fingers, Yeah, yeah, that's I'm like that. I like
• 28:09
  Speaker 8: that stuff before games for me, but but it turns
• 28:13
  Speaker 8: me up though.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: It's a it's an internal build.
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: It's head in the head bob Yeah yeah, yeah.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: One of these loose loose I like the other guy
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: where where can't where?
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Scatt was just like Australia Street.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: He's like, oh that's my fe oh but you want
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: to hear some of this. This is what Scatt is
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: listening to. Cam Skataboo of the Giants successful rookie running
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: back until he got hurt. He's listening to this before games.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: I thought it would be like Slayer or something like,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: you know, like.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: No, this is what he's checking out before games.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: There. It is pretty calm, right.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: Can you not picture camp Scattaboo kind of like looking
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: up at the stars, like kind of swaying his arms around, like, ah, yeah, man,
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: this is what I need in my life. Nothing surprises
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: me with camp Scataboo. But uh, that's funny.
• 29:29
  Speaker 6: I didn't.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: I didn't think it would be that.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: More from scat from a scat on that podcast. I
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: think it's tremendous. This is camp Scattaboo on Smelling Salts?
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: This is great?
• 29:42
  Speaker 8: Are you a smelling salts title?
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: Hell?
• 29:44
  Speaker 8: No, really, you can't get going on the football field.
• 29:48
  Speaker 8: He needs smell. But it's nice every once in a
• 29:50
  Speaker 8: while for what, No, every every year? Dri And I'm like,
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: get that away from me.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: How about that?
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: Keeps us guessing over here? He seems like he'd be
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: right in the market for a smelling salts guy.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Not at all, Not at all.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: This is the other thing Cam likes cold. One other
• 30:06

  Speaker 8: Probably think, Yeah, yeah, I love the snow. I like cold,
• 30:14
  Speaker 8: like barefoot and all that like cold. Yeah yeah, I
• 30:16
  Speaker 8: like being cold, like my house is like sixty three
• 30:18
  Speaker 8: degrees every day. Yeah, I like my like my toest
• 30:21
  Speaker 8: frozen when I walk around frozen.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: You got hardwood floors?
• 30:24
  Speaker 8: No I got. I got old wood floors, like regular hardwood.
• 30:28
  Speaker 8: Slip on the sox type shit. No, like splinter type shit.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Not a surprise.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Right, Cam's getting splinters in his feet at home. That's insane.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: Where do you say sixty three? Is that the temperature?
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: He said, that's insane? What do you have your home at? Lorraina?
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: I go like seventy four, seventy five something. I wouldn't
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: be caught dead living in sixty three.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: It's crazy. Is a polar bear over there?
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: I hate being cold. I prefer the house seventy two,
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: but my cousin insists we keep it at sixty eight.
• 31:03
  Speaker 9: That is insane, both of those. I keep my house
• 31:07
  Speaker 9: at seventy seven because Christy's expensive, right.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I know we always have the air on. I'm cold.
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: I'm always under a blanket at home.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: I'm freezing like you're used to seventy two, and it's
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: sixty eight.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: That's a huge difference. That's a big difference at home.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Sixty eight is not that's that's cold for me. That's
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: very cold, Coop. You go seventy seven. Holy hell, you
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: got fans going on in there.
• 31:31
  Speaker 9: Yeah. But I mean, like, I mean, I don't know,
• 31:34
  Speaker 9: Like electric bill is a lot. If I had my
• 31:39
  Speaker 9: AC set to seventy or to sixty eight, I'd have
• 31:45
  Speaker 9: like a four hundred dollars electric bill.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: I believe you. I totally believe you.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, man, it's a you got some steamy nights over
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: there in La you know, steamy daytime. Hey, hey, man,
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: I get if you can condition yourself to, you know,
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: not be panning like a dog when you're at home,
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: then yeah, by all means, do it. By the way, Coop,
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: we got shouted out by a guy Roberto, formerly of
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: The Ben Malors Show, and he just wrote, Hey, MLB,
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: it's Joe Morgan, not Joe Gordon, you dumbasses.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Now the context of this, he's quote tweeting a post
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: by MLB and it just says Jeff Kent is the
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: all time home run leader for second baseman and will
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: be the first second baseman inducted into the Hall of
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: Fame since twenty fifteen. The last second baseman was Craig Bgio.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: So it scrolled down and here's Coop's reply. Joe Morgan
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: is at the bottom. So like there's a list. This
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: is news to me. So the Jeff Ken is going
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: in this year, Craig Bgio the last one inducted in
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, and then it's Roberto Alomar. It goes down,
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: then it's Joe Gordon. Now I had to look this up, Coop.
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: I did not know this. Joe Gordon is a guy
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: that played in the forties yea. His last year was
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: nineteen fifty. He played for the Yankees and the Indians
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: at the time, and he went into the Baseball Hall
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: of Fame in O nine.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: I thought, just like Roberto, they screwed it up.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: But no, Joe Morgan of the Cincinnati Reds, he's at
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: the bottom of this list.
• 33:22
  Speaker 9: I did to it first, I thought I read it
• 33:24
  Speaker 9: and I was like, oh, yeah, they did screw up.
• 33:25
  Speaker 9: And then I was looking at what it was saying,
• 33:28
  Speaker 9: and I was like, Joe Morgan was in the Hall
• 33:30
  Speaker 9: of Fame way before nine, right, And so then that's
• 33:34
  Speaker 9: when I kept reading and I was like, oh, there
• 33:36
  Speaker 9: he is down at the bottom.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: So did you like being well, actually, guy, there you
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: like that?
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: Well actually, well actually yeah I learned something right there.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Have you ever done that coop where you know, you
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: come out guns blazing, you dumbasses, and it's like, oh,
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: I'm the one.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Who had it wrong. You ever do that? I think
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: we've before it. It's happened.
• 34:00
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it doesn't happen super often because I am very
• 34:04
  Speaker 9: careful to double check things before I, you know, call
• 34:09
  Speaker 9: somebody out.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what was lame?
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: Has made me think of it, and it was just
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: a fact I threw out there. This goes back to
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: the NBA Finals, and I'll try to do my best
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: to remember exactly, but the Knicks. The one game the
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Knicks lost to the Spurs, Mike Brown, the Knicks head coach,
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: was complaining about the free throw disparity. He was like,
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: I've never seen an NBA Finals game where the disparity
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: was that that big of a difference, And so he
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: was complaining about how many free throws the Spurs shot
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: compared to the.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Knicks, and I just put it out there.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Halftime of the very next game, the Knicks had shot
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: like twenty three free throws to the Spurs like five
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: free throws.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: And the Spurs were crushing them.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, it can't just be the free throw disparity, man,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: something like that. And so that's the game that the
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Knicks came back and won. It came back from like
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: a twenty nine point deficit, and so all these nick
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: fans are hitting me up, like what do you think now, Brian,
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: what do you have to say now? But I'm like,
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: I literally just threw out facts.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: That's all I threw out there.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: But that happens quite a bit, man, that like the
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: what do they call him the.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: The cold tweets or what's the thing, coop? What is it?
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Freezing cold takes?
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, every now and then you get caught up
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: in that. That would be more of it for me
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: than anything else everybody's gotten, you know, the halftime switcheroo
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: on them where things change dramatically and all of a sudden,
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: your tweet looks so stupid, but it's it was fine
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: at the time.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: So I do that way more often. But good to
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: hear from Roberto.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: By the way, he texted me, he said, my house
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: has to be between seventy three and seventy five or otherwise,
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: I sweat is what he said right there. He can't
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: get up to the seventy si in territory like.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: You, Coop can't do it. But that's good.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: It's good to hear from Roberto. Shout out to him,
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: man miss him. Good stuff by him.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: All right, Coming up?
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: What do we got going on here? Oh oh oh,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get to ball. Get it right back to ball.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: Well we see a rookie quarterback enjoy the same outcome
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: that a different rookie quarterback benefited from last season. We
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: said that.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: Coming up, I'm Brian no In for Big Ben Mallor.
• 36:27

  Speaker 1: Big Ben malor' said tag team effort.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: I hear by Coop and Lorena coming up with a
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: little rage. Very nice poll by you guys. I approve.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: I do have to get to Coop's Mayard SoundBite here
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: Maynard tool listening to pot casts and so I will
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: get that. It's not as negative as I would hope
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: it would be. But it's fun fact fun facts. Will
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: enjoy it when his experienced to be enjoyable as well.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: So we'll do that next hour. I was thinking about this.
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: So the Raiders, they have made it official number one
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: overall pick for Nando Mendoza. He reached an agreement on Thursday,
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: four year contract just a little above fifty seven million
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: dollars for the Raiders quarterback, and uh, listen, I just
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: think that he'll be there, sign sealed and delivered for
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: training camp. I think the rookie wage scale has worked
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: out great for the NFL. You remember years ago, this
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: was twenty eleven. The first time that it was a
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: rookie wage scale was Cam Newton was the number one
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: draft pick.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: And so all of these contracts are slotted.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: The money is slotted based on when you're selected, how
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: high you're selected, and so you don't get the the holdouts,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: the guaranteed money like through the roof. Some of these
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: guys were making huge money before they even stepped foot
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: on an NFL field. I just didn't think that's the
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: way it should be. It wasn't good for the NFL,
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: and I think it makes a lot more sense what
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: the NBA does. The NBA has slotted contracts. You make
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: a rookie contract which is only so much, and if
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: you earn your keep in the NFL, you make the
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: big dollars. I think that's the way it should be.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: But it's absolutely better for the NFL. You don't get
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: these number one overall, number two overall picks holding out
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: well in the training camp. Sometimes missing training camp is
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: so much better to be. Oh, by the way he signed,
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: he's good to go. This guy signed. Everybody signed pretty much.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: It happens like clockwork.
• 38:41
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: The other thing that came to mind is the Raiders
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: picking up Kirk Cousins.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: It's a smart pickup because.
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Think of this, I think that it I'll make a
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: weird comparison for you. I think it puts Mendoza in
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: the position to enjoy what Tyler Shuck enjoyed last season
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: for the Saints. If you think about Mendoza not gonna
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: start at the beginning of the season, the Raiders are
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: intending to play Kirk Cousins and easing Mendoza in there,
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: which I think is very smart. Because you don't throw
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: him in. You don't throw him into the deep end
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: week one and expect him to swim. And when he
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: does go in and play, it's just a different vibe.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: There are different expectations you had. The Saints last year,
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: they started Spencer Rattler. He was QB one to start
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: the season. His record was one and seven, and so
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: when they pivoted to Tyler Shuck, it was just different.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: Tyler Shuck, his record was five and four. Saints won
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: four games in a row. At the end, they won
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: four of their final five games. Shuck didn't light the
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: world on fire, but you looked at him differently, like
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: he he's playing pretty well. You're looking at what he
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: does well instead of what he needs to do better.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: It's just a completely different vibe, completely different evaluation. I
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: think that's what Mendoza will benefit from when he's eventually
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: the starter.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: Let Kirk be the warm up band and then you
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: take it from there. All right, coming up next.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: While the focus is on this guy looking bad, I
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: think this other guy looks worse.
