- 2:22Speaker 1: while we'll see we're working on that. He did a
- 2:23Speaker 1: heck of a job last Saturday, so with very bloom

- 2:32Speaker 1: We did surpass one million views mark as well, So
- 2:36Speaker 1: just to let everybody know that we're working to grow

- 2:40Speaker 1: good about it. Right, we will turn off with basketball.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Thank you very much, appreciate it. Start off with basketball
- 2:47Speaker 1: to night. Russell with for past, Paul Pierce for eighteenth
- 2:51Speaker 1: on the NBA all time scoring lists, Tim Duncan seventeen
- 2:56Speaker 1: or twenty four or four ninety six, Russell Wood for
- 3:00Speaker 1: at that time, I know the number of changed twenty
- 3:02Speaker 1: four thousand and three ninety eight plus and Paul Pierce
- 3:05Speaker 1: twenty six three ninety seven. So thought scandy about Russell
- 3:09Speaker 1: Westbrook moving ahead.
- 3:12Speaker 5: You know, he's had a long career, He's had some
- 3:15Speaker 5: injuries along the way, but you got to give him
- 3:18Speaker 5: props because anyone that's gotten to that point in his
- 3:23Speaker 5: career with that many points, that's just a true accomplishment.
- 3:28Speaker 6: George, Yeah, he's thirty seven years old now and a veteran,
- 3:35Speaker 6: you know, by far, a veteran in the league and
- 3:37Speaker 6: has had a good career. Came out of UCLA, a
- 3:40Speaker 6: great basketball school, as we know, and they'll be I mean,
- 3:46Speaker 6: Detroit will be seeing him to you know, in the
- 3:48Speaker 6: next game. Diston's are going to be at Sacramento tomorrow night.
- 3:52Speaker 6: But yeah, I mean, you know, I take a look
- 3:54Speaker 6: at him and I say longevity but also success Marvel.
- 4:00Speaker 7: When I think of Russell Westbrook, I think of just
- 4:03Speaker 7: high energy, high effort guy.
- 4:06Speaker 4: You know.
- 4:06Speaker 7: I love this from a competitors perspective, you know, I
- 4:09Speaker 7: love watching this guy compete and play and fight and
- 4:13Speaker 7: just you.
- 4:13Speaker 4: Know, always hustling.
- 4:15Speaker 7: This guy absolutely is one of the best players ever
- 4:18Speaker 7: played in the league. And you know, the numbers, you know,
- 4:21Speaker 7: the fact that he's playing in his seventeenth year, you know,
- 4:24Speaker 7: and still you know, making plays out there is just phenomenal.
- 4:27Speaker 7: So yeah, this guy is moving up. The moved up
- 4:30Speaker 7: the list the longer he plays, keep moving up. But
- 4:33Speaker 7: there's so much respect for him just the way he competes.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Scott, He's the guy that's had an awesome career. Definitely
- 4:43Speaker 3: Hall of Famer I love the way the guy plays,
- 4:48Speaker 3: love his motor, love the way he dishes the ball out.
- 4:52Speaker 3: Very unselfish player. He could be on my team anything.
- 4:58Speaker 3: Oh gad to have you, Andrew, thank you very much
- 5:00Speaker 3: for being on. Merry Christmas to you, all right, go ahead.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Tony love Russell Westbrook.
- 5:06Speaker 8: I remember a time where somebody like Jason Kidd getting
- 5:10Speaker 8: eight or nine triple doubles in the season was like,
- 5:12Speaker 8: oh my god, that's a lot of triple doubles. He
- 5:15Speaker 8: did it forty one times in one year. He's averaged
- 5:18Speaker 8: a triple double I think four times throughout his career,
- 5:21Speaker 8: and eighth all time in the seas. So not only
- 5:23Speaker 8: can he score the ball, he was dishing it out,
- 5:26Speaker 8: Like Marvin said, one of the greatest competitors of my time,
- 5:29Speaker 8: but probably an all time in the NBA, top seventy
- 5:31Speaker 8: five player man, first ball of Hall of Famer for sure,
- 5:35Speaker 8: And yeah.
- 5:36Speaker 2: That's so question. Russell Westbrook's the name that will be
- 5:38Speaker 2: watching all the year.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Scott and I and Marvin and Kensey and I talked
- 5:42Speaker 1: about him on our K's roundtable, and this guy's.
- 5:45Speaker 2: An incredible story. I'm gonna do something since it is
- 5:49Speaker 2: pertinent to the travel season.
- 5:50Speaker 1: We're gonna go to a nine sports topic early, Okay,
- 5:53Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the Rich Carleton story. And this
- 5:56Speaker 1: is just one of those things that really fruitfully fascinates me.
- 6:00Speaker 2: And that's this. So get right, there's a lot to
- 6:02Speaker 2: throw at you, and that's this. Okay.
- 6:05Speaker 1: In a whole move, Rith Carleton gave every employee two
- 6:08Speaker 1: thousand dollars to fix problems. Most thought this was a
- 6:11Speaker 1: huge risk. Or risk built a three billion brand on trust.
- 6:15Speaker 1: I'm going to go through everything. Everybody else can comment
- 6:17Speaker 1: on them. In nineteen eighty three and new CEOs stepped
- 6:21Speaker 1: in to save Ris Carleton. The company was struggling to
- 6:23Speaker 1: stand out in luxury hospitality. He created the policy that
- 6:26Speaker 1: would terrify most CEOs, empower every employee to act with
- 6:31Speaker 1: out approval. Candy take note of this unbelievable stuff. The
- 6:35Speaker 1: rule is simple. If a guest has a problem, any
- 6:37Speaker 1: staff member consider up to two thousand dollars to fix it.
- 6:41Speaker 1: No permission needed, no forms. From dormant to dishwasher. Everyone
- 6:45Speaker 1: had the same power. Why two thousand dollars Because solving
- 6:50Speaker 1: a problem instantly builds a lifetime customer and for a
- 6:53Speaker 1: luxury hotel, a loyal guests is worth far more than
- 6:56Speaker 1: two thousand dollars.
- 6:58Speaker 2: It was a long term play for world class loyalty.
- 7:01Speaker 2: The reactions were wild. People called it reckless, dangerous.
- 7:05Speaker 1: But if the employees abused that they asked, but something
- 7:08Speaker 1: unexpected happened.
- 7:09Speaker 2: Almost no one abused it.
- 7:12Speaker 1: In fact, employees felt more respected and acted more responsibly.
- 7:16Speaker 1: They didn't They didn't need to ask the manager. They
- 7:19Speaker 1: acted like owners, not workers. One housekeeper noticed the guest
- 7:23Speaker 1: bluggage was ruined. She personally replaced the bag before the
- 7:29Speaker 1: guest was even asked. Another covered a honeymoon dinner that
- 7:33Speaker 1: went wrong. Guests didn't feel didn't just feel help, They
- 7:38Speaker 1: felt seen. Customers started telling stories. Rich fixed many my
- 7:43Speaker 1: problem before I even complained. These moments created an emotional connection,
- 7:48Speaker 1: and emotional connection build brands behind the scenes.
- 7:52Speaker 2: Get this.
- 7:53Speaker 1: The two thousand dollars rule created something deeper. Trust in
- 7:56Speaker 1: both directions. The company trusted itself and staff went above
- 8:01Speaker 1: and beyond. While other companies trained employees to follow rules,
- 8:06Speaker 1: Rich trained them to solve problems. The rule wasn't about money,
- 8:10Speaker 1: It was about ownership, speed, and care. Most brands treat customers,
- 8:16Speaker 1: services and expense. Rich treated it as marketing. They knew
- 8:21Speaker 1: solving one problem could win a customer for life, and
- 8:25Speaker 1: it worked so decades later, this rule defines Rich Carlton.
- 8:29Speaker 1: It's taught in MBA programs, copied by other luxury brands,
- 8:32Speaker 1: and used to train staff in thirty countries. This isn't
- 8:36Speaker 1: about hotels people, It's about building trust through autonomy. Empowered
- 8:41Speaker 1: people create magical experiences, and magical experiences create loyalty. Risk
- 8:47Speaker 1: been on human intuition. They let real people solve. They
- 8:52Speaker 1: let real people solve real problems in real time. That's
- 8:56Speaker 1: how you build a brand and never forget. So the
- 8:59Speaker 1: next time you think about customer service, what would happen
- 9:02Speaker 1: if I treated my team more? Because one simple rule
- 9:07Speaker 1: helped work. Carleton built the three billion empire and all
- 9:10Speaker 1: started with trust. So there you have it. I laid
- 9:13Speaker 1: it out there. Candy, you're in the customer service industry.
- 9:16Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about the Rich Carleton approach in
- 9:19Speaker 1: terms of how they end out going out there and
- 9:22Speaker 1: going about their business.
- 9:24Speaker 5: Well, they're trying to get the elite customers in and
- 9:28Speaker 5: to stay with them, and to do that you have
- 9:32Speaker 5: to have customer. You have to have employees that are
- 9:35Speaker 5: willing to project what you the image you want, and
- 9:42Speaker 5: in order to do that, to help do that, you
- 9:45Speaker 5: have to empower them. I know for a fact that
- 9:48Speaker 5: anytime I empower my employees, they respond better, they're they're
- 9:53Speaker 5: more app they feel that you're entrusting them with something,
- 9:57Speaker 5: and to entrust them with two to two thousand dollars
- 10:01Speaker 5: for whatever to help clients. I applaud Ritz because they
- 10:08Speaker 5: make you get lasting employees that way. You know, if
- 10:12Speaker 5: they can solve a problem for one of their customers,
- 10:16Speaker 5: they look good, they feel good, and the customer appreciates
- 10:21Speaker 5: the fact that they didn't have to go to oh,
- 10:24Speaker 5: let me go talk to my manager, let me do this.
- 10:26Speaker 5: The fact that the employee can take care of it
- 10:28Speaker 5: right then and there helps.
- 10:32Speaker 6: To kudos George, Yeah, I mean that's a fantastic thing.
- 10:38Speaker 6: I mean, there's no other one that I've heard of
- 10:40Speaker 6: quite like that one for two thousand dollars. And you know,
- 10:44Speaker 6: like Candy mentioned about the empowerment and the fact that
- 10:47Speaker 6: you don't have to go through a line of approvals,
- 10:50Speaker 6: you know, that helps eliminate bureaucracy, which we see so
- 10:53Speaker 6: much in big companies, and you know, trying to solve
- 10:57Speaker 6: a problem of a customer or a client of yours
- 11:00Speaker 6: is fantastic because everything from lost luggage to missing towels
- 11:06Speaker 6: in my room, or the restaurant closed early on me,
- 11:10Speaker 6: I have no food eat, whatever the reason is. Whenever
- 11:13Speaker 6: you're traveling, all kinds of things can pop up, and
- 11:16Speaker 6: certainly Ritz Carleton is you know, using this as a
- 11:22Speaker 6: awesome tool to please the customer. The customer remember is
- 11:26Speaker 6: number one. I love it, Scott. I think it's a
- 11:29Speaker 6: great idea and hats off to the rich Carleton family
- 11:32Speaker 6: for doing so.
- 11:34Speaker 2: And I'll have a few more travel things topics a
- 11:37Speaker 2: little bit tonight.
- 11:38Speaker 1: I think it's interesting out and bringing them up tonight
- 11:40Speaker 1: because we're talking about the holiday season and I want
- 11:42Speaker 1: people to know about these and travel as much a
- 11:45Speaker 1: part of sports as anything else. So tonight's one of
- 11:47Speaker 1: those nights where I feel like we can do a
- 11:49Speaker 1: lot of different things to have fun and continue those
- 11:51Speaker 1: sports agenda on hand.
- 11:52Speaker 7: Marvin, Yeah, I'm big on customer service, and at that
- 11:56Speaker 7: level of business that for the top of client that
- 11:59Speaker 7: Candy was talking about out, that's the appropriate level of
- 12:02Speaker 7: customer service. So just being able to empower the employees
- 12:05Speaker 7: to be able to solve problems on the spot. I mean,
- 12:07Speaker 7: that's really an elite level of service, So I think
- 12:10Speaker 7: it's outstanding. I love it when you prough like that's
- 12:14Speaker 7: got it and you tell me those kinds of things.
- 12:15Speaker 4: I mean, I'll tell you what I don't.
- 12:17Speaker 7: I'm not a rich Carlton dude, but you know that's
- 12:20Speaker 7: something that I could definitely look forward to, that type
- 12:22Speaker 7: of customer service. So yeah, kudos to them.
- 12:25Speaker 4: I love it. Yeah.
- 12:26Speaker 1: I love stories like this too. That's why I bring
- 12:28Speaker 1: them up. I'd like to do off of all things
- 12:30Speaker 1: on the Sports Exchange. It gives me the opportunity to
- 12:32Speaker 1: do it. This is one of those situations where the
- 12:34Speaker 1: opportunity presented itself. But that said, will turn over to
- 12:37Speaker 1: s Square.
- 12:40Speaker 3: The Rits is simply one of the greatest hotel chains
- 12:43Speaker 3: in the world. I always look for a Ritch when
- 12:46Speaker 3: I travel. I think that they give you great amenities
- 12:50Speaker 3: and their staff is so warm and friendly, and for
- 12:54Speaker 3: them to turn around and give them a two thousand
- 12:56Speaker 3: dollars whoopsie, I think that's a great idea.
- 13:01Speaker 2: Great stuff. Scott, All right, Tony.
- 13:04Speaker 8: I want to be like Scott when I grow up
- 13:06Speaker 8: and look for Ritz whenever I travel. But that's great though,
- 13:12Speaker 8: as somebody who's I'm in Orlando, I've done pretty much
- 13:15Speaker 8: any customer service dollars you can think of. One of
- 13:18Speaker 8: the most like awkward moments is a problem coming up
- 13:22Speaker 8: and not being able to find your manager, okay, and
- 13:25Speaker 8: like you're and the customer is upset trying to get
- 13:28Speaker 8: it done quickly, You're trying to find a manager trying
- 13:31Speaker 8: to I love.
- 13:32Speaker 9: The empowerment of this.
- 13:34Speaker 8: People are are more trustworthy than than not, and it
- 13:38Speaker 8: shows because, like you said, with this two thousand dollars,
- 13:40Speaker 8: nobody took advantage of it, nobody abused it, and it
- 13:43Speaker 8: grew the company. That really shows that it's more good
- 13:46Speaker 8: in the world and bad and more trustworthy people than not.
- 13:49Speaker 1: And that's what inspired me to put this out there.
- 13:51Speaker 1: More travel information and other sports topics. US travelers now
- 13:55Speaker 1: need approval to enter the UK Electronics Travel Authorization ETA
- 13:59Speaker 1: CAN and I had to experience that we took care
- 14:01Speaker 1: of it. So, Kenny, your thoughts about that rule that
- 14:03Speaker 1: was implemented about the ETA.
- 14:06Speaker 5: It just means that we needed to get an extra
- 14:08Speaker 5: thing on your passport and apply for it means you're
- 14:11Speaker 5: giving your information to another country, let them do their
- 14:15Speaker 5: background check or whatever they need to do. And yeah,
- 14:19Speaker 5: it was downloaded right to our passport, so it was
- 14:21Speaker 5: part of our passport, so we did it. I get it.
- 14:26Speaker 5: There's more security and especially international travel these days, hopefully
- 14:33Speaker 5: just for being for the sake of being safer. So
- 14:37Speaker 5: I'm okay with it.
- 14:39Speaker 2: George.
- 14:41Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm okay with it too, as long as it's
- 14:43Speaker 6: not abused. And of course that's a bigger picture than
- 14:46Speaker 6: we can swallow right here, but yeah, that's it's a necessary,
- 14:53Speaker 6: necessary tool for traveling, Like you said, international, then it
- 14:56Speaker 6: has to be done. I just yeah, you always just
- 15:00Speaker 6: everybody hopes nothing gets in the wrong hands, but that's
- 15:02Speaker 6: out of our hands.
- 15:03Speaker 2: Marvin.
- 15:05Speaker 4: Yeah, listen, I mean, I'm all for it.
- 15:07Speaker 7: With all these terror celles that they alleged to live
- 15:10Speaker 7: in our country, we need to know who's coming in,
- 15:12Speaker 7: who's going out. So if this is something that they're
- 15:15Speaker 7: doing in the UK, doing in Europe, you know, I'm
- 15:18Speaker 7: hoping that it applies everywhere coming and going.
- 15:21Speaker 4: But I'm all for knowing who's coming to my house.
- 15:25Speaker 2: Scott.
- 15:27Speaker 3: I'm definitely dead set against it. I'm gonna go against
- 15:30Speaker 3: the grain. I'm into small government, no regulation. I don't
- 15:37Speaker 3: want to hear about any more invasion in my privacy.
- 15:45Speaker 3: If that was where to be implemented here, I think
- 15:49Speaker 3: it it would be terrible.
- 15:51Speaker 9: Fair enough, Tony, I don't know a lot about it.
- 15:56Speaker 8: I'm all for safety, so I mean, as long as
- 15:58Speaker 8: it's say and like George said, we're not you know.
- 16:02Speaker 8: The scary thing is information can go to the wrong people.
- 16:04Speaker 8: But if everything's on up and up, I'm cool with it.
- 16:08Speaker 1: Okay, one more non sports. We'll get tacked to sportscause
- 16:11Speaker 1: some of the ones I'm putting up they're really interesting.
- 16:13Speaker 1: You're talking about a strange law. This is one of them.
- 16:15Speaker 1: But I actually don't mind. I have a problem with it.
- 16:17Speaker 2: Okay.
- 16:18Speaker 1: And Samla forgetting your wife's birthday is literally illegal. So
- 16:23Speaker 1: for all you people that are married out there, you
- 16:25Speaker 1: forget your wife's birthday? Oh my god, I don't have.
- 16:27Speaker 2: To worry about that.
- 16:28Speaker 1: I know mine anyways, And it aligns with a lot
- 16:30Speaker 1: of and my niece Candy, so so in Samola forgetting
- 16:34Speaker 1: your wife's birthday literally illegal.
- 16:36Speaker 2: What do you think that one, Candy?
- 16:40Speaker 5: I don't know what to think about that one. I mean,
- 16:42Speaker 5: do I want my husband to forget my birthday? Of
- 16:44Speaker 5: course not. But should it be a law? I'm like, no,
- 16:48Speaker 5: I mean, I just think that's just getting down to
- 16:51Speaker 5: too many different laws. And then the problem is is
- 16:55Speaker 5: are you going to enforce it? And if you don't
- 16:57Speaker 5: enforce it, then what kind of law is it? And
- 17:00Speaker 5: how many other laws don't you enforce then? And if
- 17:03Speaker 5: it takes you away from enforcing some laws that I
- 17:06Speaker 5: would think would be more beneficial to the common good,
- 17:11Speaker 5: it's a distraction. And no, that's kind of yeah. I'm
- 17:15Speaker 5: not for that one as much as I don't want
- 17:18Speaker 5: you to forget my birthday, but I know you don't.
- 17:20Speaker 5: I mean, I don't think it needs to be law.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Nobody forgets your birthday.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers never did either a few years ago, and
- 17:26Speaker 1: George Eycorn and I had to see this on your birthday.
- 17:30Speaker 1: We don't need to remind ourselves that the packers one
- 17:32Speaker 1: that one with a pass that one.
- 17:34Speaker 2: Would never forget.
- 17:35Speaker 1: But again, with your mom passing away weeks about a
- 17:38Speaker 1: week or two prior, I guess I had a sauce
- 17:41Speaker 1: part from me George on about you what do you
- 17:43Speaker 1: think about this one.
- 17:45Speaker 6: I don't think it should be like a law like
- 17:48Speaker 6: you said, Candy. I mean, there's a lot of other
- 17:51Speaker 6: things going on and crying to solve, and you know,
- 17:55Speaker 6: safety on the streets, and I'd rather have the law
- 18:00Speaker 6: enforcement people or the courts or whatever and Samoa concentrate
- 18:03Speaker 6: more on the things they should. I just I can't
- 18:07Speaker 6: see it. I'm not in favor of.
- 18:09Speaker 2: That, Marvin.
- 18:12Speaker 7: It may be illegal on Samoil. It'd be fatal in
- 18:14Speaker 7: my house. If I forgive my wife's birthday, it's gonna
- 18:18Speaker 7: be a problem. Uh So, yeah, it's it's we celebrate
- 18:22Speaker 7: birthdays around here, we do.
- 18:23Speaker 4: She she leads that.
- 18:25Speaker 7: I mean she yeah, she has her own birthday events
- 18:28Speaker 7: that she that she does, so it's not eve impossible.
- 18:30Speaker 7: So yeah, it's you know, it is what it is
- 18:32Speaker 7: people in Samoa. Man, that's that's tough.
- 18:35Speaker 9: Man.
- 18:35Speaker 7: Like Candy said, I would think, well, but like this,
- 18:37Speaker 7: if you're able to prioritize that, then I would think
- 18:40Speaker 7: that you don't have as many issues in your country
- 18:43Speaker 7: as we have in our country.
- 18:44Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. So you know, yeah, that's
- 18:47Speaker 4: that's my take.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Number One. My birthday is seven days from now, so
- 18:52Speaker 1: I'm not classified as the wife. I don't know what
- 18:54Speaker 1: I'm classified as, but at least I know seven days
- 18:57Speaker 1: from now you won't see us here on anything on
- 18:59Speaker 1: the network because it's uh, I law, my law that
- 19:03Speaker 1: I don't do anything on that day. Okay, period, and
- 19:06Speaker 1: we'll leave it attone. But I I am not in
- 19:08Speaker 1: the business to look at FIR certificates, although obviously my
- 19:13Speaker 1: other half here it is tattooed in my skull.
- 19:16Speaker 2: Okay, so I don't forget it.
- 19:18Speaker 5: Well, wait a minute, let's come clean. I worked on
- 19:22Speaker 5: my birthday. I took a vacation day for Scott's birthday.
- 19:27Speaker 1: Right well, and I took the driver's tests in the
- 19:29Speaker 1: middle of the winter on my birthday and got away
- 19:31Speaker 1: with it by telling the instructor in the middle of
- 19:35Speaker 1: Scott you ought to know this. I think you're from
- 19:36Speaker 1: the north anyways, right originally, so so I ended up
- 19:41Speaker 1: telling my driver's instructor the day at the Secretary of States,
- 19:45Speaker 1: you know, because George weet this right in the middle
- 19:47Speaker 1: of a blizzard here. Okay, this is a year before
- 19:49Speaker 1: I even know you. Okay, I said, listen, I don't
- 19:52Speaker 1: remember the lady's name. But all I know she was cute,
- 19:54Speaker 1: and I was driving my Grandma's yellow Cadillac. But this
- 19:58Speaker 1: could go a couple of different ways. One let me
- 20:01Speaker 1: drive for I want and get, and I get.
- 20:03Speaker 2: I passed her.
- 20:03Speaker 1: Two we get hurt in an auto accident. No, no,
- 20:07Speaker 1: just throw every want God passed.
- 20:08Speaker 2: No big deal.
- 20:09Speaker 1: And as the old story was, my dad just said
- 20:11Speaker 1: later that day he ran a red light. He remember,
- 20:13Speaker 1: probably not health, but I got the license that was
- 20:17Speaker 1: that birthdays are birthday's, noting the business to go off
- 20:20Speaker 1: there and look at every person to get this done.
- 20:23Speaker 1: Some more good luck trying to figure that one out.
- 20:25Speaker 8: All right, Tony, A woman must have made this law.
- 20:32Speaker 8: I'm just gonna put it out there. But I'm with
- 20:34Speaker 8: Marvin man Hey. If y'all ain't never seen the movie
- 20:36Speaker 8: then line between love and hate. If I forget my
- 20:40Speaker 8: lady's birthday, I'm gonna be forced to eat some cake
- 20:43Speaker 8: the next day, and I'm not gonna like it. All right,
- 20:45Speaker 8: So I don't worry about forgetting no birthdays.
- 20:50Speaker 9: I'm cool on that. I'm I'm good with samone in law.
- 20:53Speaker 8: But on the on the serious note, clearly crime is
- 20:57Speaker 8: down in Samoa. If they got time to make these
- 20:59Speaker 8: kind of I might need to go go live out
- 21:01Speaker 8: there where everything.
- 21:04Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing, Tony.
- 21:06Speaker 1: When you earn your royalties and everything from us and
- 21:09Speaker 1: everywhere else and you want to go to small and
- 21:11Speaker 1: go ahead, I'm sure they'll be more than happy to
- 21:13Speaker 1: have you out there.
- 21:14Speaker 2: Since a long law you do approve of that.
- 21:16Speaker 1: Many people on this panel are probably a little bit
- 21:19Speaker 1: as you see in Sandford and Son.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Then be more than happy to have you there.
- 21:24Speaker 1: All right, back to sports for I to throw a
- 21:25Speaker 1: few little non sports and they're Scott So. Mike Frabill
- 21:30Speaker 1: announced earlier this fall that defense Patriots defensive coordinator Terrell
- 21:36Speaker 1: Williams have been diagnosed with candy cancer candy any updates
- 21:39Speaker 1: on Terroll Williams condition right now? For the defensive coordinator.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Patriots are having a really sensational.
- 21:45Speaker 5: Season basically all I've seen. I'm trying to come up
- 21:51Speaker 5: with find some updates. They said he has stepped away
- 21:56Speaker 5: from the team since being diagnosed. He's been in and out. Sorry,
- 22:03Speaker 5: I keep getting pop ups. He's been in and out
- 22:08Speaker 5: with the team since the spring with what was described
- 22:11Speaker 5: then as a medical issue. On September twenty sixth, Rabel
- 22:14Speaker 5: announced that he would be stepping away indefinitely from his position.
- 22:18Speaker 5: Since his absence, Rabel explained that the defensive coordinator has
- 22:22Speaker 5: still been around the team before he begins treatment and
- 22:26Speaker 5: remains in good spirits, you know. So he did not
- 22:31Speaker 5: give any updates on when he would be returning to
- 22:35Speaker 5: them as he is undergoing treatment.
- 22:39Speaker 2: All I can say is our prayers go out to
- 22:42Speaker 2: Terrell Willins for sure, George.
- 22:45Speaker 6: Yeah, he's only fifty one years old, but the defensive coordinator,
- 22:49Speaker 6: as you mentioned this year, I yeah, all I can
- 22:55Speaker 6: say is, you know, that's a tough thing to handle
- 22:57Speaker 6: right now for anybody, and prostate cancer is one of
- 23:01Speaker 6: the more common ones among men. But we need to
- 23:05Speaker 6: keep him in our thoughts and prayers, and uh, you're
- 23:07Speaker 6: gonna come through this, all right, Terroll. Just keep your
- 23:10Speaker 6: confidence going and uh and uh you know you're you're
- 23:13Speaker 6: gonna be okay, man, Just just keep it up.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Marvin.
- 23:18Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, it's it's unfortunate.
- 23:20Speaker 7: You hate to see a young man like that having
- 23:22Speaker 7: that type of medical condition. And uh, you know there's
- 23:25Speaker 7: thoughts and prayers to him.
- 23:27Speaker 4: Uh.
- 23:27Speaker 7: Fortunately those coaches at the NFL, they have great benefit packages,
- 23:33Speaker 7: you know what I mean, and he'll get the treatment
- 23:34Speaker 7: he needs and be taken care of. That's something that's
- 23:37Speaker 7: definitely been addressed. But uh yeah, there's thoughts and prayers
- 23:40Speaker 7: to him and to his family.
- 23:43Speaker 3: Scott Well, I think the number one thing that we
- 23:46Speaker 3: should take from this, uh is that men should be
- 23:50Speaker 3: getting checked early, and because if you do have it,
- 23:54Speaker 3: and you catch it early, you won't have that bad
- 23:58Speaker 3: of a problem.
- 23:59Speaker 6: Uh.
- 24:00Speaker 3: And it appears as though coach caught it early. And
- 24:04Speaker 3: I take my hat off to Mike Vrabel for the
- 24:06Speaker 3: way he's been a gentleman about this and the way
- 24:11Speaker 3: he's treating coach, and I wish coaching nothing about the
- 24:15Speaker 3: best Tony.
- 24:18Speaker 8: Uh yeah, prayers up for him. Good thing that he's
- 24:22Speaker 8: caught it early. Like Marves stated, he's gonna have great
- 24:24Speaker 8: medical treatment. I'm sure the Patriot's gonna take care of him.
- 24:27Speaker 8: I'm sure all the way up to the top. Robert
- 24:28Speaker 8: Crab's gonna make sure that he's taken care of. So
- 24:31Speaker 8: that's gonna that's always great, you know, and hopefully a
- 24:35Speaker 8: quick recovery. Hopefully by next season he's back on the
- 24:38Speaker 8: sideline coaching his boys up.
- 24:41Speaker 1: What are your makes you know Mike Frable is a
- 24:44Speaker 1: head coach. Of course, obviously Terrell Williams was in our
- 24:47Speaker 1: thoughts and prayers that he gets better. But the Patriots,
- 24:50Speaker 1: what they've done in the last year is remarkable. Back
- 24:52Speaker 1: to basketball, Michael Malone shared what he needs for him
- 24:56Speaker 1: to happen to accept another head coaching jump in the NBA.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Just want to make sure that I'm working with a
- 25:02Speaker 1: group of people who were like minded.
- 25:04Speaker 2: He was better obviously with his firing with the.
- 25:09Speaker 1: With the actually the excuse me have something top of
- 25:12Speaker 1: my throat with the Denver Nuggets.
- 25:14Speaker 5: Candy, Yeah, I mean he's been a coach for a
- 25:20Speaker 5: long time. He's he was coaching all the way back
- 25:24Speaker 5: in ninety three and he was actually an NBA champion
- 25:29Speaker 5: as a head coach. Would like to see him, you know,
- 25:34Speaker 5: back in the coaching realm.
- 25:38Speaker 6: George, Yeah, I mean, you know, he's uh, he's definitely
- 25:43Speaker 6: got a good coaching history. Like you said, Candy, I
- 25:46Speaker 6: mean you look back and I mean he's he's been
- 25:50Speaker 6: around quite a number of years in a number of
- 25:53Speaker 6: different colleges and pro teams, including of course the Nuggets
- 25:58Speaker 6: and the Kings. Nix and as an assistant coach, a
- 26:02Speaker 6: lot of great stuff there, and yeah, an NBA champion.
- 26:07Speaker 6: You know, it's tough. I mean, coaches goeta, it's a terror.
- 26:11Speaker 6: It's an unbelievable twenty four to seven job. I mean,
- 26:14Speaker 6: to be a coach in any one of these major
- 26:16Speaker 6: sports and college as well. But Malone's got a good,
- 26:20Speaker 6: good head on his shoulders and he's done a lot
- 26:23Speaker 6: of good things. He's been even in broadcasting a little bit.
- 26:26Speaker 6: So I'm hoping if the right opportunity comes, you know,
- 26:29Speaker 6: he will be able to step in.
- 26:33Speaker 7: Yeah, as young as he is, with his resume, I mean,
- 26:37Speaker 7: you would think he'd have a bunch of suitors, you know.
- 26:40Speaker 7: So all it takes is, you know, one GM one owner,
- 26:43Speaker 7: you know, to like this guy. You know that that
- 26:45Speaker 7: whole situation is about relationships, and I have no doubt
- 26:48Speaker 7: that at some point or him having a relationship with
- 26:52Speaker 7: the players. But I have no doubt that at some
- 26:54Speaker 7: point this guy's gonna be a head coach. Again, I
- 26:56Speaker 7: don't know what his demands are. You know, one be
- 27:00Speaker 7: like mine that I can understand that. I take that
- 27:02Speaker 7: as he felt maybe the GM the owner and himself
- 27:05Speaker 7: as a head coach. You know didn't have the same
- 27:08Speaker 7: belief in whatever they were doing, and people wanted to
- 27:10Speaker 7: go in different directions with the organization. So yeah, alignment
- 27:14Speaker 7: and being like mind that is really important with that question.
- 27:17Speaker 7: But he's young, he's a champion. Guys like him, Guys
- 27:22Speaker 7: play hard for him. So yeah, I have no doubt
- 27:24Speaker 7: this guy is gonna bounce back and be a coach again.
- 27:28Speaker 3: Scott, I echo what Marvin said. I think he's a
- 27:32Speaker 3: terrific young coach. He got a raw deal. He's an
- 27:36Speaker 3: NBA champion. There aren't too many coaches out there that
- 27:40Speaker 3: can say that, and there aren't too many coaches out
- 27:43Speaker 3: of work that can say that, right, So I think
- 27:46Speaker 3: he's gonna be working sooner rather than later.
- 27:50Speaker 2: Totally.
- 27:52Speaker 8: Yeah, I think Marvin, not Marvin, I'm sorry, I think
- 27:55Speaker 8: Mike Malone. He's taking the coach's TV year. It's like
- 28:00Speaker 8: a red shirt year. You know, they need to decompressed.
- 28:03Speaker 8: It's hard being the coach in the NBA. He's just
- 28:06Speaker 8: joined TV, where you never lose a game. You can
- 28:09Speaker 8: always make the adjustments at halftime during the break.
- 28:13Speaker 9: As an Orlando Magic.
- 28:14Speaker 8: Fan, I like Jamal Moseley, but come on down, well,
- 28:18Speaker 8: I'm a Lakers fan, but being in Orlando and talking
- 28:20Speaker 8: to a lot of Magic fans, come on down, take
- 28:24Speaker 8: this young team over the top.
- 28:26Speaker 2: They're ready for you.
- 28:27Speaker 9: Mike Malone.
- 28:28Speaker 1: Now here's the thing, son, Brendan Malone. I got to
- 28:32Speaker 1: know Brendan really really won when it was the Pistons.
- 28:34Speaker 1: In fact, Brendan and I used to spend a lot
- 28:36Speaker 1: of time together. Brendan to me, was a little more
- 28:38Speaker 1: remarkable basketball minds. Ever, and the fact that Michael's done
- 28:42Speaker 1: a job as a champion league Brendan because he was
- 28:45Speaker 1: a champion with the Pistons. Michael did it by himself
- 28:47Speaker 1: with his own team, and he was able to put
- 28:50Speaker 1: together a pretty nice runover in Denver. For sure, we'll
- 28:53Speaker 1: continue basketball. Obviously. Damian Lillard is with the Portland Lasers,
- 28:59Speaker 1: and you know he's their headache for now. But due
- 29:03Speaker 1: to the fact that he isn't going to be playing
- 29:05Speaker 1: all year, he actually figures to start next season add
- 29:08Speaker 1: an achilles injury. You can't say f with that, okay,
- 29:15Speaker 1: And I don't have to go ahead and fill in
- 29:17Speaker 1: the blaze. It's just got to get it all the
- 29:20Speaker 1: way right. In other words, what he's saying is. You
- 29:22Speaker 1: just can't come back from an injury like that too quickly.
- 29:26Speaker 1: I think there's a pretty good upside candy in Portland
- 29:29Speaker 1: for Damon Lillard.
- 29:32Speaker 5: Yeah, it's as a Milwaukee Bucks fan. I mean, he
- 29:36Speaker 5: played with the Bucks for a couple of seasons here.
- 29:40Speaker 5: But you know, his heart was always in Portland. That's
- 29:45Speaker 5: where his family is, that's where his kids were, and
- 29:50Speaker 5: so for him to go back to Portland's albeit him
- 29:55Speaker 5: being injured doesn't help, but he can really rehab his
- 30:00Speaker 5: family there at home. And yes, we have seen lots
- 30:05Speaker 5: of injuries in numerous different sports. It's not healthy to
- 30:10Speaker 5: bring them back and rush them too quickly because you
- 30:13Speaker 5: can do more harm and then he can be out
- 30:15Speaker 5: even longer. So let him rehab, let him get fully
- 30:19Speaker 5: healthy before he comes back. He's one of the top
- 30:28Speaker 5: basketball players in the NBA, so give him his due time.
- 30:33Speaker 2: George.
- 30:36Speaker 6: Yeah, he is a good player, better than good. What
- 30:39Speaker 6: am I talking about? Twenty five points per game his
- 30:41Speaker 6: average in his career, Are you kidding me? Yeah, he
- 30:44Speaker 6: still could play this game, play it at a high level,
- 30:47Speaker 6: and he's just gonna have to take the time and
- 30:49Speaker 6: work through these injuries. This injury and I'm sure Portland
- 30:54Speaker 6: would be better off for that. I know it's tough
- 30:57Speaker 6: because you know, you want to be out there right
- 30:59Speaker 6: away helping your team. You know, like you said, he's
- 31:03Speaker 6: back again, and I think that he's got a lot
- 31:06Speaker 6: of great basketball still in him. I really do. I
- 31:09Speaker 6: think I've always been a little fan he's he's a
- 31:12Speaker 6: darn good player.
- 31:14Speaker 2: Marvin.
- 31:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 31:16Speaker 7: You know, at this at this point in twenty twenty five,
- 31:18Speaker 7: where we are in sports medicine, you know, you can
- 31:21Speaker 7: really come back from most of these injuries. You know,
- 31:23Speaker 7: we've seen players do it. The thing about it is
- 31:25Speaker 7: the Achilles is one of the bad ones. Man, that's
- 31:27Speaker 7: one of the ones you don't want to have to
- 31:29Speaker 7: deal with. The recovery can be a year or more.
- 31:32Speaker 7: And you know, for him, when you look at his game, quickness,
- 31:35Speaker 7: you know, having a jump shooter, it's it's the sport itself.
- 31:40Speaker 4: I mean, it's very challenging.
- 31:42Speaker 7: So between his age and your style of play, you
- 31:45Speaker 7: got to be even more cautious. And you know, this guy,
- 31:48Speaker 7: you know, you realize, you know today you can play
- 31:50Speaker 7: a little bit longer. These guys can do it. But
- 31:52Speaker 7: a lot of times you got to avoid these kind
- 31:54Speaker 7: of injuries, especially late. So I wonder, you know what
- 31:56Speaker 7: we get when he comes back or when he's clared
- 31:58Speaker 7: to really practice. I wonder if he has that quick step,
- 32:03Speaker 7: I can he defend the same pace again thirty seven
- 32:06Speaker 7: years old man? So we'll see. With all that said,
- 32:10Speaker 7: this guy is a phenomenal player. He's a Hall of
- 32:13Speaker 7: Fame player. He knows how to prepare and I'm certain
- 32:16Speaker 7: he'll be smart and heady with his rehab because he
- 32:19Speaker 7: knows what's on the line.
- 32:21Speaker 3: Scott coming back from an achilles is worse than coming
- 32:27Speaker 3: back from an ACL. The ACL you can come back
- 32:31Speaker 3: a lot quicker now with today's science, but an Achilles
- 32:36Speaker 3: you're still looking at a solid year. And if he
- 32:39Speaker 3: were to rush it and come back, bad things would happen.
- 32:43Speaker 3: He's not going to be able to do what he
- 32:46Speaker 3: wants to do. Is Achilles is going to give out again,
- 32:49Speaker 3: and he'll be out next year too. He should just
- 32:52Speaker 3: take the year off. They should let him rest, rehab
- 32:57Speaker 3: and come back stronger in twenty twenty six, twenty seven.
- 33:01Speaker 2: Tony.
- 33:03Speaker 8: I think that's the plan for him to just miss
- 33:06Speaker 8: this year, which works out for Portland. They're they're letting
- 33:09Speaker 8: their young guys play. They're getting a lot of playing
- 33:11Speaker 8: time right now. They're not looking bad and which is
- 33:15Speaker 8: perfect for next year for them. They'll be a little
- 33:17Speaker 8: more season. He'll be a veteran presence with Drew Holliday
- 33:21Speaker 8: in that backcourt. And I think it's really setting up
- 33:24Speaker 8: for Portland to be good or at least, you know,
- 33:27Speaker 8: competitive in the twenty twenty six twenty twenty seven season.
- 33:31Speaker 1: I agree, that's an injury you don't want to bother
- 33:32Speaker 1: with our see, it has happened in so many different
- 33:35Speaker 1: sports alone, basketball, football. When you see a non time
- 33:38Speaker 1: tact injury, what do you tell you it's an achilles?
- 33:41Speaker 1: And that's ugly right when you see it happen, until
- 33:43Speaker 1: you know what the player has to go through, all right,
- 33:46Speaker 1: So get this Shi family. Jhanna's family has reportedly moved
- 33:50Speaker 1: permanently back to Athens. Candy, what are you reading into this?
- 33:54Speaker 5: He has come out and said that he eventually wants
- 33:58Speaker 5: to go to Greece and play in Greece for Greece.
- 34:02Speaker 5: So when that time table is set, I don't know,
- 34:07Speaker 5: but I can. I mean, let's face it, honestly, who
- 34:12Speaker 5: wants to live in Milwaukee Wisconsin right now during the
- 34:15Speaker 5: dead of cold season and winter. So I get it
- 34:19Speaker 5: he wants to, you know, move back to where he's from.
- 34:23Speaker 5: And only time will tell to see how much longer
- 34:27Speaker 5: he stays in the NBA before he does go back
- 34:30Speaker 5: and permanently, because I know he does want to retire
- 34:33Speaker 5: playing in Greece.
- 34:36Speaker 6: George, Yeah, but can he make as much money though
- 34:39Speaker 6: in Greece as he's making here in the United States.
- 34:42Speaker 6: I mean, this is a this is a star player,
- 34:45Speaker 6: one of the top players in our league, the NBA.
- 34:48Speaker 6: And you know, I don't know if I put a
- 34:53Speaker 6: lot of weight in this comment. You know, yeah, it
- 34:57Speaker 6: could be. But maybe he's gonna wait a little bit longer.
- 34:59Speaker 6: I mean, the longer he stays here, the more bucks
- 35:02Speaker 6: he's gonna make it American dollars, and he certainly deserves it.
- 35:05Speaker 6: My god, are you kidd amaze? Averaging almost twenty nine
- 35:08Speaker 6: points a game and multiple time All Star. We don't
- 35:11Speaker 6: have to go through all that, but there's a lot
- 35:14Speaker 6: to be said for playing for your home team, of
- 35:16Speaker 6: course in the Olympics. But also it sounds like he's
- 35:19Speaker 6: wants to go more for maybe a permanent move there.
- 35:22Speaker 6: I just think that, you know, I don't see him
- 35:24Speaker 6: walking away from another multi million dollar contract, okay, Marko.
- 35:32Speaker 7: Yeah, to pick up where George left off. I would
- 35:35Speaker 7: bet that his you know, Nike and his endorsements, these
- 35:38Speaker 7: contracts haven't written where he has to be in America
- 35:41Speaker 7: or play in the NBA as I think that would
- 35:43Speaker 7: benefit them so much more So, I think between that
- 35:48Speaker 7: and the fact that he's you know this kids could
- 35:50Speaker 7: be a leverage play. Him wanting to tell the Bucks
- 35:53Speaker 7: or you know or whoever may become a next listen.
- 35:55Speaker 7: I could leave it any time. See my family's gone.
- 35:58Speaker 7: I think about all that kind of stuff. So yeah,
- 36:01Speaker 7: I don't put a lot into that. And again I
- 36:03Speaker 7: doubt Nike UH would want him to go over there, Scott.
- 36:08Speaker 3: He's already accumulated multi generational wealth right and he's he's
- 36:14Speaker 3: not going to go to Greece anytime soon, so he's
- 36:17Speaker 3: gonna accumulate even more money. It really becomes a question
- 36:22Speaker 3: of how many yachts do you have to ski behind?
- 36:25Speaker 6: Uh.
- 36:26Speaker 3: He wants to be happy, he wants to play in Greece.
- 36:29Speaker 3: He's gonna play in Greece. Nike, you'll go along with it.
- 36:34Speaker 3: Nankey's got to sell shoes there too.
- 36:37Speaker 2: That's a great point, Scott all the way around, Tony.
- 36:42Speaker 9: I'm with Candy.
- 36:43Speaker 8: It's probably it's probably cold as all get out in Milwaukee.
- 36:48Speaker 8: Go ahead and let the fam go enjoy Greece. I'm
- 36:50Speaker 8: sure Greece is nice this time of year. It's probably
- 36:52Speaker 8: real nice compared to Milwaukee and the cold. Come back
- 36:56Speaker 8: in April. We'll we'll be fine, He'll be fine. I
- 36:59Speaker 8: don't think it's that big of a deal.
- 37:02Speaker 2: Never heard of yarma or yager.
- 37:04Speaker 1: When you get up later in age, it don't matter
- 37:05Speaker 1: where you play, You've already accumiliated the cash anyways.
- 37:07Speaker 2: It doesn't make any different.
- 37:10Speaker 5: Can I add something?
- 37:12Speaker 1: Yeah, let me finish. Though, it's not not a matter
- 37:14Speaker 1: of if. It's a matter of when he goes. Keep
- 37:16Speaker 1: that in mind, and yes, Barbara is probably a play
- 37:20Speaker 1: to get more money or get out of the wow Milwaukee,
- 37:23Speaker 1: depending where the teams that go ahead, Candy, so it.
- 37:26Speaker 5: The reason behind it is they have four children. They
- 37:31Speaker 5: moved to Athens, Greece with his wife because they want
- 37:35Speaker 5: to They want to live closer to family and embrace
- 37:39Speaker 5: their Greek heritage, with his children attending school there in
- 37:44Speaker 5: Greece so they can learn that way instead of coming
- 37:48Speaker 5: over here and being too Americanized. So his wife's preference
- 37:53Speaker 5: was Athens over Milwaukee.
- 37:56Speaker 1: Fair Okay, Well, Miami dolphin struggles, includ the fact that
- 38:00Speaker 1: Darren Waller will be sidelined for multiple weeks with a
- 38:04Speaker 1: strange pectorial, will all documented about the Dolphins, but this
- 38:08Speaker 1: Darren Waller thing hasn't helped in how their quarterback situation
- 38:11Speaker 1: and what they want to do. Whether it's a good
- 38:13Speaker 1: tip point of view, were Zach Wilson some time, So
- 38:16Speaker 1: let's go ahead and tart with Tony on this for
- 38:18Speaker 1: your about Darren Waller obviously and the lack of availability
- 38:23Speaker 1: to say the least, Tony, the wheels.
- 38:25Speaker 8: Are falling off in Miami. It's just the last lug
- 38:29Speaker 8: on said tire Or will I actually feel, you know,
- 38:34Speaker 8: Darren Waller, I think that year off, you know that
- 38:36Speaker 8: takes a toll on your body coming back and playing
- 38:38Speaker 8: the full NFL season. So hopefully he gets he can
- 38:42Speaker 8: rehab and come back healthy for twenty twenty six if
- 38:45Speaker 8: he's willing to play. He was one of the bright
- 38:47Speaker 8: spots for the Dolphins. I remember he was killing the
- 38:49Speaker 8: Panthers until they decided to stop throwing the ball to him.
- 38:52Speaker 9: So that made me happy. So hopefully he come back
- 38:56Speaker 9: next year.
- 38:57Speaker 8: He can be Quinn, you were his best friend, because
- 38:58Speaker 8: the tight end is always a qarner back safety blanket Scott.
- 39:04Speaker 3: Darren Waller had a couple of good games, but he
- 39:07Speaker 3: was injured more often than not. I think the Dolphins
- 39:10Speaker 3: got damaged goods when they made the trade. You know,
- 39:14Speaker 3: when he came back, he had the back issues, and
- 39:18Speaker 3: I just think he's more problems than he's worth. There
- 39:21Speaker 3: are other tight ends out there, especially in the draft.
- 39:25Speaker 3: I don't think they have to worry about Darren Waller
- 39:27Speaker 3: coming back. And the Dolphins only a three game I'm sorry,
- 39:31Speaker 3: two games left. Who cares if they win or lose.
- 39:35Speaker 3: Let him lose both games and they'll get a better
- 39:37Speaker 3: draft pick.
- 39:39Speaker 2: Good points, Marvin.
- 39:41Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm a fan of Waller. You know, this is
- 39:43Speaker 7: a success story in NFL. Success story. The guy who
- 39:47Speaker 7: publicly went through some stuff, got through it, got his
- 39:50Speaker 7: career back on track, got a chance with the Dolphins.
- 39:52Speaker 4: Obviously, was good with the Raiders when he was there.
- 39:55Speaker 7: And yeah, he's somebody who I'm definitely a fan of,
- 39:58Speaker 7: and I'll tell you what between him taking that year
- 40:00Speaker 7: off from Philip Rivers. I'm telling you, man, I know
- 40:03Speaker 7: these guys don't want to miss out on any checks.
- 40:05Speaker 4: But you know, I.
- 40:06Speaker 10: Think, just like sitting out in your thing is going
- 40:08Speaker 10: to become normal. I think you're gonna see guys who
- 40:11Speaker 10: play years a certain point or financially where they want
- 40:15Speaker 10: to be. You know, I want to keep playing taking
- 40:18Speaker 10: time off. You know, his situation was a little bit different.
- 40:20Speaker 10: He was addressing a real issue we have. But listen,
- 40:23Speaker 10: mental health is a new thing. It's a big thing.
- 40:26Speaker 10: I believe in it. So yeah, kudos to him. The
- 40:29Speaker 10: Dolphins are trash. They need to hit, reset, get rid
- 40:33Speaker 10: of the quarterback. I was a big to a fan.
- 40:35Speaker 10: I was listen, I'm a Trojan and I'm a Jet
- 40:37Speaker 10: and I still like tour. I like this whole deal.
- 40:39Speaker 7: But he's done and the head coach, I mean, that guy,
- 40:42Speaker 7: I think he's lost confidence.
- 40:45Speaker 4: They have to hit and that whole thing in Miami.
- 40:48Speaker 6: George, Yeah, I'm not that big a fan of him either.
- 40:53Speaker 6: I I think, like Scott said, I mean, you know,
- 40:56Speaker 6: he's had a couple of decent years, and you know,
- 41:01Speaker 6: I look back at the days in Oakland and that's
- 41:03Speaker 6: where he had his most successful seasons. But yeah, I mean,
- 41:08Speaker 6: anytime you're injury prone like he's been in the last
- 41:10Speaker 6: few years, it's tough. It's a little tough, But I
- 41:14Speaker 6: mean there is a lot to be said for his
- 41:16Speaker 6: staminin and you know what he stands for. As far
- 41:19Speaker 6: as his value, I don't think so, because, like you said, Miami,
- 41:23Speaker 6: what are they six and nine?
- 41:25Speaker 7: Now?
- 41:25Speaker 6: I mean, they fall out of contention rapidly and you
- 41:29Speaker 6: can't just blame him. Though it's not all his fall
- 41:31Speaker 6: I'm not saying that, But the fact is is that
- 41:33Speaker 6: there will be a lot of changes on that Dolphins
- 41:35Speaker 6: team and he could be one of them out the door.
- 41:38Speaker 2: We don't know, Cady.
- 41:42Speaker 5: The Baltimore Ravens selected Waller in the sixth round with
- 41:46Speaker 5: a two hundred and fourth overall pick in the twenty
- 41:49Speaker 5: fifteen NFL Draft October twenty ninth of twenty fifteen. He
- 41:54Speaker 5: was placed on injured reserve. In twenty sixteen, he converted
- 41:59Speaker 5: to a tight end and he was suspended for a
- 42:02Speaker 5: couple of games. In twenty seventeen, he was suspended for
- 42:06Speaker 5: a year, then he was reinstated in two thousand and eighteen. Okay,
- 42:12Speaker 5: in two thousand and nineteen, he played a little. In
- 42:17Speaker 5: twenty twenty, he played some. In twenty twenty one, he
- 42:22Speaker 5: played a little. In twenty twenty two, he's back, finds
- 42:25Speaker 5: himself back on the injured reserve list. Then in twenty
- 42:29Speaker 5: twenty four he announced his retirement, and then he came
- 42:32Speaker 5: back out of retirement, and now he's he is back
- 42:37Speaker 5: on the injured reserve again. He was activated again now,
- 42:42Speaker 5: so he went on the injured reserve back in October,
- 42:45Speaker 5: and now he's back to playing the Dolphins. Honestly, what
- 42:50Speaker 5: were you thinking?
- 42:51Speaker 9: What are you doing?
- 42:52Speaker 5: Like you're I mean, your whole organization is up in arms,
- 42:58Speaker 5: You're not hitting on anything. You're not hitting on some
- 43:02Speaker 5: of these trades. Obviously, the whole two situation you have
- 43:06Speaker 5: not handled good coaching, I honestly think is not doing
- 43:11Speaker 5: well at all. I think it's time and I think
- 43:15Speaker 5: you he's outlasted his stay here and he's I think
- 43:19Speaker 5: he's lost the whole locker room. So I think they
- 43:23Speaker 5: need to completely overhaul that organization.
- 43:28Speaker 1: What's up, Steven, How you doing tonight, my friend? Great
- 43:30Speaker 1: work with us. We appreciate it. Lady's to and watching
- 43:33Speaker 1: us on YouTube. Miami Dolphins are a dumpster fire. They
- 43:36Speaker 1: have been for a while and won a playoff game
- 43:38Speaker 1: since two thousand one. Knows when NFL ever figure it out.
- 43:41Speaker 1: Darren Waller is the latest example and.
- 43:44Speaker 2: A sack of for a lot.
- 43:45Speaker 1: Okay, mac Jones summed himself out earlier this season, and
- 43:50Speaker 1: it's just unbelievable the fact that Adrian Martinez was able
- 43:53Speaker 1: to Turkey his first NFL snap. Now Martinez is a
- 43:57Speaker 1: member of the New York Jetson's had a lot more snaps.
- 44:00Speaker 1: What are your thoughts, Candy about the gesture of mac
- 44:02Speaker 1: Jones earlier in the year.
- 44:05Speaker 5: You know, he's had he's had some issues too, and
- 44:11Speaker 5: he he was selecting the twenty twenty one draft. He's
- 44:17Speaker 5: already played for Patriots, Daguarres and now the forty nine ers.
- 44:22Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know, he's not having the career
- 44:27Speaker 5: we thought he would have. Let's put it that way.
- 44:30Speaker 5: I'm gonna let Georgia go go ahead.
- 44:35Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I kind of agree. I mean, it's
- 44:39Speaker 6: a tough, tough, tough road to hoe obviously in the
- 44:42Speaker 6: quarterback position. But I think that you know, you know,
- 44:47Speaker 6: he's hit his opportunities, he just hasn't capitalized on him.
- 44:50Speaker 6: I look at him that way. I really think it's
- 44:53Speaker 6: a big challenge to rise to the top. The cream
- 44:56Speaker 6: rises to the top, especially at the quarterback position, no
- 44:59Speaker 6: question about it. And everybody else that doesn't succeed looks
- 45:03Speaker 6: bad or they look second or third string, and that
- 45:07Speaker 6: doesn't look too good. Obviously, you're not gonna make big
- 45:10Speaker 6: money unless you're starting quarterback.
- 45:14Speaker 2: Here's the thing.
- 45:15Speaker 1: Max Childs will be a free agent and he'll be
- 45:16Speaker 1: heavily coveted. And Adrian Martinez has been a journeyman and fast.
- 45:20Speaker 1: He's been all over the place.
- 45:23Speaker 7: Listen, you know we live in the in the Pat
- 45:26Speaker 7: Mahomes Lamar Jackson era. These guys were Super Bowl MVP
- 45:30Speaker 7: and League MVPs and their second and third seasons, you
- 45:33Speaker 7: know what I'm saying, And they're anomally so these guys
- 45:35Speaker 7: are gonna go down, as you know, some of the
- 45:37Speaker 7: greatest quarterbacks we've ever seen and the position. Listen, it
- 45:42Speaker 7: takes time for a lot of these guys. Man, you know,
- 45:44Speaker 7: some of these guys don't hit in the right situation.
- 45:47Speaker 7: I'm not out on Mac Jones. I like mac Jones.
- 45:50Speaker 7: I think he's a guy who still can compete for
- 45:53Speaker 7: a starting job in the right situation. And you know,
- 45:58Speaker 7: it's been I think he came out in twenty two,
- 46:00Speaker 7: so now he's in his fifth year.
- 46:02Speaker 4: You know, let's let's let's see. Man.
- 46:03Speaker 7: He's had some good quarterback coaching in uh in San
- 46:06Speaker 7: fran obviously he played under Saban.
- 46:09Speaker 4: He was successful to Alabama.
- 46:11Speaker 7: I think he made the Pro Bowl his second year
- 46:13Speaker 7: in the New England, which.
- 46:15Speaker 4: You know, that's that's value differently these days.
- 46:18Speaker 7: But yeah, he's you know, he's he's still a guy
- 46:22Speaker 7: that can play the game. So let's let's see where
- 46:24Speaker 7: he gets picked up in free agency, because, like you said, Scott,
- 46:26Speaker 7: teams are gonna come after him. You see, you see
- 46:28Speaker 7: how desperate teams are. The Coats brought back a guy
- 46:31Speaker 7: who has been retired for five years, you know what
- 46:33Speaker 7: I'm saying. So don't don't give up on Matt Jones yet.
- 46:37Speaker 1: Well, Kyle Shanahan can groom quarterbacks and he's done a
- 46:40Speaker 1: good job with Jones.
- 46:41Speaker 3: Scott, I agree with Marvin Uh. I put mac Jones
- 46:46Speaker 3: in the same category as Baker Mayfield, and yes, who
- 46:53Speaker 3: else am I thinking of Donald Mayfield and Sam Donald.
- 46:58Speaker 3: I mean these are guys that are good quarterbacks that
- 47:00Speaker 3: were just in bad situations. Mac Jones had a decent
- 47:04Speaker 3: time filling in for Brock Purty. Uh, he didn't. He
- 47:08Speaker 3: didn't do bad. I think he played well in San
- 47:10Speaker 3: Francisco so far. He's gonna be an unrestricted free agent
- 47:14Speaker 3: and there gonna be is gonna be a lot of
- 47:16Speaker 3: demand for him. He's he's he's gonna make his money
- 47:20Speaker 3: because they're going to point.
- 47:22Speaker 2: To got any comments about Adrian Martinez.
- 47:27Speaker 3: Adrian Martinez, He's never will be. He's a journeyman. He's
- 47:33Speaker 3: played a handful of snaps. Uh, he's not going anywhere.
- 47:39Speaker 3: I mean he's a backup quarterback on the Jets. That's
- 47:42Speaker 3: like being first string for the little league team.
- 47:45Speaker 4: That's good, pretty strong. He's a fact.
- 47:50Speaker 2: I know. It's still pretty good. Solomon, good stuff, Okay, Tony.
- 47:55Speaker 9: Yeah, I haven't sold my Mac jonestock.
- 47:57Speaker 8: He did lead the Patriots to a the playoffs his
- 48:00Speaker 8: rookie year, and then they decided to take every single
- 48:04Speaker 8: weapon away and be cheap like the Patriots were at
- 48:06Speaker 8: the end of Bill Belichick's running. I think more quarterbacks
- 48:10Speaker 8: are broken than made in the NFL, and that's one
- 48:12Speaker 8: way that you heard a quarterback. Young quarterbacks need their receiver.
- 48:16Speaker 8: I don't think mac Jones is like you say in
- 48:19Speaker 8: the Josh allenld or the Mahomes or Lamar Jackson. I
- 48:23Speaker 8: don't think he's somebody who can do a lot with
- 48:25Speaker 8: a little. But if you can put him in a
- 48:27Speaker 8: situation where he has a decent offensive line, a good receiver,
- 48:30Speaker 8: tight end situation, he can lead you to ten to
- 48:33Speaker 8: eleven wins and get you to the playoffs. I don't
- 48:35Speaker 8: think he's a Super Bowl MVP quarterback, but if everything's
- 48:38Speaker 8: good around him, he'll be good.
- 48:39Speaker 9: It's terrible quarterback play. We've had fifty two quarterbacks start
- 48:43Speaker 9: this year. He'll be all right.
- 48:45Speaker 1: Yeah, I again, Martinez, a lifetime journaman. Jones will be covened.
- 48:49Speaker 1: We'll go to a future top to I know Scott
- 48:51Speaker 1: and Tony have one hour to give us a night.
- 48:53Speaker 1: No problem, club, We're able to keep my mine for
- 48:54Speaker 1: that long. And they're going to get a piece of
- 48:56Speaker 1: this future topic because they should earlier this season. Aaron
- 48:59Speaker 1: Rodgers pass former teammate Pett Farv with five hundred passing TDS,
- 49:03Speaker 1: fourth all time. Candy will give us an update in
- 49:06Speaker 1: the moment. The Steelers playing in Detroit on Sunday. They
- 49:08Speaker 1: ended up eating Alliance twenty nine to twenty four. How
- 49:11Speaker 1: many yards did Rogers ab and tds? And what's is
- 49:16Speaker 1: up to date total? I know he's gonna hit the
- 49:18Speaker 1: sixty five thousand mark at some point, Candy.
- 49:21Speaker 5: Rogers was twenty seven of forty one for two hundred
- 49:25Speaker 5: and sixty six yards one touchdown with a QB rating
- 49:29Speaker 5: of ninety two point one in the contest against your team,
- 49:36Speaker 5: the Allions. So far he has sixty five thousand, eight
- 49:42Speaker 5: hundred and twelve yards.
- 49:46Speaker 1: Sixty five thousand, how many eight twelve? So we did
- 49:50Speaker 1: surpass that number. That's what I thought, So okay, continue
- 49:54Speaker 1: So so thoughts about Rogers. He's done a really I
- 49:57Speaker 1: think he's done an excellent job with the Pittsburgh Steelers
- 49:59Speaker 1: early dew.
- 50:00Speaker 5: As you can see, this is a picture of him
- 50:03Speaker 5: when he played with the Packers against the Jackson Jill
- 50:06Speaker 5: Bill Jaguars. Behind me. He's he's an elite quarterback. First
- 50:11Speaker 5: time I mean, first ballot Hall of Famer. He's been
- 50:15Speaker 5: in the league a long time. Say what you want,
- 50:18Speaker 5: mister drama, mister whatever. But he gets it done. He's efficient,
- 50:23Speaker 5: he can, he's quick with the ball, and he's quick
- 50:27Speaker 5: to read defenses. I think that's one of his strengths.
- 50:32Speaker 5: He's accurate and I think you know, him going to
- 50:37Speaker 5: Pittsburgh to a situation he liked has worked well for him,
- 50:42Speaker 5: and I think it's worked well for the Steelers. You know,
- 50:45Speaker 5: everybody's talked about how the Steelers never get to the
- 50:47Speaker 5: playoffs or never win in the playoffs since Ben and
- 50:51Speaker 5: stuff like that. But kudos to Mike Tomlin's he is
- 50:54Speaker 5: not as a head coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He
- 50:58Speaker 5: has not coached a losing sea And yes, and.
- 51:01Speaker 1: Scott, Scott, take that photo was taken by Candy over
- 51:06Speaker 1: at lambeau Field. So that's not one that that's in
- 51:10Speaker 1: our system, mister Solomon, Just so.
- 51:11Speaker 2: Know, do you have any ideas of adding them later
- 51:14Speaker 2: on in our group?
- 51:15Speaker 1: You already have your built in background, just so you know, Scott, Okay,
- 51:18Speaker 1: go ahead, good to.
- 51:20Speaker 2: What's that?
- 51:21Speaker 4: It's good to know.
- 51:24Speaker 2: It's called FYI for George.
- 51:27Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean he is uh needless say the crafty
- 51:33Speaker 6: veteran forty two years old and uh, you know, he
- 51:37Speaker 6: carved up the Lions secondary. Of course, the Lions are
- 51:39Speaker 6: decimated back there with so many injuries, but kudos to him.
- 51:43Speaker 6: I mean, you know, he looked good yesterday. He's got
- 51:47Speaker 6: a lot of parts that are helping him out, you know,
- 51:51Speaker 6: and receivers and unbelievable rushing game he masterminded and the
- 51:55Speaker 6: coaches masterminded that over two hundred yards rushing for the team.
- 52:00Speaker 6: But yeah, no, there's a lot of good football left
- 52:02Speaker 6: in him, and a lot of people were skeptical, you
- 52:04Speaker 6: know during the offseason, all who wants him, who's going
- 52:07Speaker 6: to sign him?
- 52:07Speaker 4: Blah blah blah.
- 52:08Speaker 6: Well, I think Pittsburgh is showing they made the right move.
- 52:11Speaker 6: They made the right move, and he's done a very
- 52:13Speaker 6: very good job for them as they look to advance
- 52:18Speaker 6: in the playoffs for a change. We shall see if
- 52:21Speaker 6: that happens, but I think, yeah, sixty five thousand, oh
- 52:25Speaker 6: my god, that's unbelievable. And the mount of yards in
- 52:27Speaker 6: his career that he's passed for.
- 52:29Speaker 2: Yeah, when I did play fantasy football, I didn't go
- 52:32Speaker 2: on my way to have on my team. A few times,
- 52:34Speaker 2: I didn't mind it.
- 52:35Speaker 1: Actually, it was really a backhanded direct job at Candy
- 52:39Speaker 1: to take his guy just like a theater at that
- 52:42Speaker 1: Lions and Tacker's competitive thing. Actually, I think one of
- 52:45Speaker 1: my family members let him go and I decide, you know,
- 52:48Speaker 1: I said, I don't pick him up, even though he's
- 52:50Speaker 1: not gonna be worth anything. And it was just a
- 52:53Speaker 1: personal family thing that I had fun with.
- 52:56Speaker 2: But yeah, Aaron Rodgers is what he is. He's a
- 52:58Speaker 2: legendary quarterback.
- 52:59Speaker 1: Take the dramas after worry about that in Pittsford, you know,
- 53:02Speaker 1: when you have a coach that you deeply respecting the
- 53:04Speaker 1: Steelers or are simply class no matter what. With the
- 53:07Speaker 1: way the Rooney family does, what do you expect? And
- 53:09Speaker 1: I'm glad he ended up going to Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh
- 53:12Speaker 1: was stationed to bring in when they were ready to.
- 53:14Speaker 2: It's good for them all the way around. Go ahead,
- 53:16Speaker 2: Marvin Man listen.
- 53:17Speaker 7: Growing up, you know, I was a big Jet fan, obviously,
- 53:20Speaker 7: but I was a big football fan, and Brett was
- 53:22Speaker 7: one of the guys I used to love to watch
- 53:24Speaker 7: as a young kid. And when I got a chance
- 53:26Speaker 7: to play with the Packers a little bit in training
- 53:27Speaker 7: camp in two thousand, he was super cool. He was
- 53:30Speaker 7: exactly what you see on TV, And for me, I
- 53:32Speaker 7: thought he was just a great teammate. So I don't
- 53:34Speaker 7: care how many records Aaron Brakes Brett Man in Green
- 53:38Speaker 7: Bay to me, listen, you know, talk about Aaron Rodgers.
- 53:42Speaker 7: You know, I was one of the guys who thought
- 53:44Speaker 7: that when he was with New York with the Jets,
- 53:45Speaker 7: that we should have kept him because he was coming
- 53:48Speaker 7: off with the Achilles injury, the same thing we were
- 53:50Speaker 7: talking about with Dame Lillard.
- 53:51Speaker 4: In his case, it took some time. He was older.
- 53:54Speaker 7: So again, going back to Dame Willard, it's gonna take
- 53:56Speaker 7: some time. Right with Aaron, we're seeing him somewhat healthy now,
- 54:00Speaker 7: somewhat healthy. He still got us, he still got his marbles.
- 54:03Speaker 7: His shoulder is, you know, good, his arm is good enough, right,
- 54:06Speaker 7: and he sees the game really slow. He's a vet
- 54:09Speaker 7: in there, man, and you're the Pittsburgh Steelers are getting
- 54:12Speaker 7: what the Jets were looking for, you know what I mean.
- 54:14Speaker 7: That's what breaks my heart and I hate it. You know,
- 54:17Speaker 7: Aaron looks good out there, man, He looks good enough.
- 54:19Speaker 4: Man.
- 54:19Speaker 7: He's getting it done. He's having fun. No drama, right,
- 54:23Speaker 7: you don't here, you don't have any drama.
- 54:24Speaker 4: In the media. So yeah, man, good for Aaron. I'm
- 54:28Speaker 4: rooting for this dude.
- 54:30Speaker 7: Yeah, he's doing well, man, and he'll continue to break records.
- 54:33Speaker 7: For him is longevity that the more snaps he takes,
- 54:36Speaker 7: the more records and more records and he'll break.
- 54:39Speaker 1: I'm not so sure he's gonna retire this year. I
- 54:40Speaker 1: don't know why if he likes it that much. Yeah,
- 54:44Speaker 1: I think he's gonna play another year. I don't care
- 54:46Speaker 1: I retire, but he starts to like it at a
- 54:48Speaker 1: certain place, Marvin, and it's just fun.
- 54:50Speaker 2: Don't you think to stay around?
- 54:51Speaker 7: Are listen now, He's he's respected, you know, my him
- 54:54Speaker 7: and Mike T have a mutual respect.
- 54:55Speaker 4: They've always talked about each other over the years in
- 54:58Speaker 4: the media. So this is working out, man.
- 55:00Speaker 7: I think Mike T realizes, like Kenny said, he hasn't
- 55:03Speaker 7: had a losing season, but that's not the standard in Pittsburgh.
- 55:05Speaker 7: They want championships, you know what I'm saying. And you know,
- 55:08Speaker 7: I think I think Mike has the guy he wants.
- 55:10Speaker 7: I think he has a tough team and he has
- 55:13Speaker 7: a somewhat healthy Aaron Rodgers. So you knowe the Steelers
- 55:17Speaker 7: are in play Scott.
- 55:21Speaker 3: I think Rogers had a phenomenal season. He's he's a
- 55:25Speaker 3: great quarterback. He's had a wonderful career. I think of
- 55:28Speaker 3: him as a Packer first and foremost. I think he'll
- 55:32Speaker 3: always he'll always.
- 55:34Speaker 4: Be the guy that.
- 55:37Speaker 3: Led the Packers to the super Bowl. I'd like to
- 55:41Speaker 3: see him lead the Steelers to a super Bowl. I
- 55:44Speaker 3: think that would make a great story. But when he
- 55:53Speaker 3: was with the Jets, he couldn't accomplish anything. I mean,
- 55:57Speaker 3: they really didn't offer him much by of talent to
- 56:01Speaker 3: be next to. He had some good receivers, they had
- 56:06Speaker 3: a line to protect him. They couldn't keep him up right.
- 56:12Speaker 4: The first year. I mean the first year, the.
- 56:16Speaker 2: First year he was injured.
- 56:18Speaker 1: I mean, let's get look at this hilly lasted four places.
- 56:22Speaker 1: I need to get him up second year.
- 56:24Speaker 4: I get it.
- 56:29Speaker 3: A lot of guy Marvin's Jets, but it's easy.
- 56:35Speaker 2: A Marvin four place, let's give it. I mean, I
- 56:37Speaker 2: see one in Dunblan, not four and dungeons in four places.
- 56:42Speaker 2: It broke my heart, man, I know, I know, brother,
- 56:46Speaker 2: I don't want to break your heart, but let's face it,
- 56:48Speaker 2: he broke his achilles. That was worse.
- 56:50Speaker 1: Yeah, and we saw the repercussions. All right, Scott, are
- 56:53Speaker 1: you done with that? Or you want to go ahead
- 56:54Speaker 1: and stick it up Marvin a little more?
- 56:56Speaker 3: No, I think I've I've done enough damage for the.
- 57:01Speaker 2: Tony all right.
- 57:03Speaker 9: I'm a zig where all y'all zagging?
- 57:05Speaker 4: Man?
- 57:06Speaker 9: I'm a huge Aaron Rodgers fan.
- 57:07Speaker 8: When it comes to the talent of Aaron Rodgers, when
- 57:10Speaker 8: you look at the talent of Aaron Rodgers, he may
- 57:13Speaker 8: have over underachieved for his career only one Super Bowl.
- 57:18Speaker 8: Green Bay has had plenty of home games. He's lost
- 57:21Speaker 8: four playoff games in lambeau Field. That was a place
- 57:25Speaker 8: growing up that you would not catch Green Bay dead
- 57:28Speaker 8: losing in the playoffs. He lost four games in the
- 57:31Speaker 8: playoffs at lambeau Field. He never beat San Francisco in
- 57:34Speaker 8: the playoffs. He had the great run, But twenty ten
- 57:38Speaker 8: was fifteen years ago. Guys, That's literally the length of
- 57:42Speaker 8: some players career, great players.
- 57:44Speaker 9: Careers, and he hasn't been back to the big game.
- 57:47Speaker 8: So I think as a talent, I love Aaron Rodgers,
- 57:51Speaker 8: But when it comes to the achievements, I feel like
- 57:53Speaker 8: he's actually underachieved as a as a player. Because quarterbacks
- 57:57Speaker 8: are judged by wins or losses, and I don't feel
- 57:59Speaker 8: like he's won enough to match his talent.
- 58:02Speaker 1: Okay, final topic of the night for Scott and Tony,
- 58:06Speaker 1: and I said, Scott and Tony only Washington signed Darnell
- 58:09Speaker 1: Savage as a free agent safety who was released by
- 58:11Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars. Candy, you have an update on Darnell
- 58:15Speaker 1: You want to come back in a few moments.
- 58:17Speaker 2: Fact that.
- 58:18Speaker 4: All right?
- 58:19Speaker 1: So the fact is that Jacksonville let him go. Scott
- 58:22Speaker 1: and Washington has one of your thoughts about that move.
- 58:28Speaker 3: I don't think it's it's it's really earth shattering. I
- 58:34Speaker 3: think it's news because they signed a player that you
- 58:40Speaker 3: think can help them now and in the future. But
- 58:45Speaker 3: he was a cast off in Jacksonville. And you know,
- 58:50Speaker 3: Liam Cohen didn't really clean house when he came in,
- 58:54Speaker 3: so he really must have had an axe to grind.
- 58:58Speaker 3: I must have really determined that he wasn't good enough
- 59:01Speaker 3: to make his team.
- 59:02Speaker 4: And if you weren't good enough to.
- 59:04Speaker 3: Make a Jacksonville Jaguars team over the summer, I don't
- 59:08Speaker 3: know really what he's gonna.
- 59:10Speaker 2: Do in Washington, Tony.
- 59:15Speaker 9: Not a big deal. I mean, Washington's out of playoff contention.
- 59:18Speaker 8: He's but for him, this is a good time to
- 59:21Speaker 8: put on good tape, right if you're trying to keep
- 59:24Speaker 8: a job for next season.
- 59:26Speaker 9: Coaches, GM scals.
- 59:28Speaker 8: They're not looking at the point of time in the
- 59:31Speaker 8: season what the team's playing for. You better go out
- 59:34Speaker 8: there and play hard to get another invite to another camp.
- 59:37Speaker 9: Because he's playing for his job right now. Right he's
- 59:38Speaker 9: playing for his career.
- 59:39Speaker 8: So I'm assuming he's gonna go to Washington and play
- 59:42Speaker 8: like they're playing for the super Bowl and these next
- 59:44Speaker 8: three weeks. So that's a good thing for Washington that
- 59:46Speaker 8: you know. I'm sure it's hard to have players show
- 59:48Speaker 8: up and want to go to work at this time
- 59:50Speaker 8: of the season.
- 59:51Speaker 9: He's got something to play for.
- 59:53Speaker 2: All right, Tony, I'll tell you what rol the hour
- 59:56Speaker 2: mark everybody to get old.
- 59:57Speaker 8: Yeah, oh Man talking game one on Instagram, on take Talk,
- 1:00:03Speaker 8: talking game on Twitter. And yeah, probably won't do a
- 1:00:07Speaker 8: podcast episode Wednesday since that's Christmas evil kind of chill out,

- 1:00:31Speaker 3: was a long weekend for us, but that's what we do.
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: Yeah, we had a lot of fun doing it. That's
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: why I slept until six o'clock this afternoon and then

- 1:02:19Speaker 2: Thanks.
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: Okay, So now there's four of us. Will let everybody
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: finish off the topic about Darnell Savage.
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: What do you know, Candy, So.
- 1:02:28Speaker 5: Darnell Savage just you guys know. The Green Bay Packers
- 1:02:33Speaker 5: selected him in the first round of the twenty nineteen
- 1:02:37Speaker 5: NFL Draft. Yes, he played there until twenty twenty three.
- 1:02:42Speaker 5: Then he went to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jacksonville Jaguars
- 1:02:47Speaker 5: on September sixteenth of twenty twenty five, released him. On
- 1:02:53Speaker 5: September twenty second, the Washington Commanders signed him, and in
- 1:02:57Speaker 5: eight appearances for Washington, he recorded one pass deflection, one
- 1:03:01Speaker 5: forced fumble, fifteen combined tackles. On December fourth, the Commanders
- 1:03:07Speaker 5: waived Savage on his own request to be released. On
- 1:03:11Speaker 5: December sixth, the Buffalo Bills claimed Savage off waivers. There
- 1:03:17Speaker 5: you have right now.
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: So now the Buffalo Bills that have a player down
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: the stretch, Marvin, hopefully with their playoffs alive, go ahead
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: and Murph, yeah.
- 1:03:26Speaker 7: I mean this this is the NFL, make the team,
- 1:03:28Speaker 7: get cut, you know, play a little bit, play well.
- 1:03:31Speaker 7: It looked like he was doing well with the Commanders,
- 1:03:34Speaker 7: you know, in eight games. I mean he had some numbers,
- 1:03:36Speaker 7: he had some productivity. But it's a competitive league, and
- 1:03:39Speaker 7: you know, your value is based upon the team needs.
- 1:03:43Speaker 7: And somebody goes down, they need a spot. You know,
- 1:03:45Speaker 7: you're the guy who gets cut, you know what I mean.
- 1:03:47Speaker 7: So it sounds like he's just doing doing the normal
- 1:03:50Speaker 7: NFL tour. They denounce with you. I don't know why
- 1:03:53Speaker 7: he has to be released. Maybe he wasn't getting to
- 1:03:55Speaker 7: playing time, or they weren't going to offer a contract
- 1:03:57Speaker 7: or extension. But you know, I wishing nothing but the
- 1:04:01Speaker 7: best in Buffalo. And uh and I don't you know,
- 1:04:04Speaker 7: I don't know that you know this. He's he's a
- 1:04:08Speaker 7: real high impact player. So I don't know, you know
- 1:04:11Speaker 7: how much he's gonna really make a difference, to be
- 1:04:12Speaker 7: honest with you, But I can hope. I hope he
- 1:04:14Speaker 7: can get on the roster and get some games and
- 1:04:16Speaker 7: you know, get a game check.
- 1:04:19Speaker 6: George, Well yeah, I mean right now he's just the
- 1:04:22Speaker 6: third on their depth charge. You know it's wrong. Safety,
- 1:04:25Speaker 6: you got the Jordan Boys, Jordan Poyer and Jordan Hancock
- 1:04:28Speaker 6: ahead of him. But the thing is is that you know,
- 1:04:31Speaker 6: and one of them's ared. I know there's injuries there.
- 1:04:33Speaker 6: You need depth, no question about it. I mean, we
- 1:04:35Speaker 6: can look no further than the secondary here in my town,
- 1:04:39Speaker 6: I mean decimated. So I know Buffalo has got Obviously,
- 1:04:43Speaker 6: he's joining a very good organization and the Bills are
- 1:04:46Speaker 6: putting things together like a nice little winning street going.
- 1:04:50Speaker 6: So I'm sure he's pretty happy about that. How much
- 1:04:53Speaker 6: he can contribute at this point, we don't know, but hell, heck,
- 1:04:56Speaker 6: it's a great move for him at twenty eight years old.
- 1:04:59Speaker 4: You're right, Marvin.
- 1:05:00Speaker 6: I mean, you know he's on one team, he's off,
- 1:05:02Speaker 6: he's on one practice squad or whatever. And you know
- 1:05:05Speaker 6: that's the life of the NFL players right now, when
- 1:05:07Speaker 6: you're not a starter or a second string.
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: Yep, great, so far, right time for a first nation
- 1:05:13Speaker 2: of break candas go ahead.

- 1:07:12Speaker 1: up to the night. Now what you want to hear
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: before Christmas? But Apples stuck fell thirty three and eight
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: percent today. That's obviously on September eleventh, not a good
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: day anyways, but the reason why is that it was
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: causing the company to lose around one hundred and eight
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: billion in a single day. Unveiling the iPhone seventeen, they
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: claimed that the investors sold it didn't bringing up proper
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: in innovation. George, I don't know how close you are
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: to getting an Apple, but if we're talking about September,
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: but again, when you get a new phone, you want
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: to make sure that if you're going to spend a
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: boatload of money, that you have the necessary innovations. And
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: I'm not a financial guy, but this is something you
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: get to people take seriously. I upgrade mine every couple
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: of years because of everything that we're doing here that
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: requires it.
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: But not everybody's going to do it.
- 1:07:55Speaker 6: But your thoughts, George, Well, you know, for any company,
- 1:08:00Speaker 6: but especially a big company like Apple, I mean, you
- 1:08:04Speaker 6: would think that they would have done enough and you know,
- 1:08:07Speaker 6: deep researching and what they call groups of people come
- 1:08:11Speaker 6: in there and they discuss things, you know, and and
- 1:08:14Speaker 6: they you know, you have a system set up, you know.
- 1:08:18Speaker 6: When I was with IBM, I mean, we had these
- 1:08:20Speaker 6: things all set up, you know, and you never bring
- 1:08:22Speaker 6: something to market unless you really really are sure. If
- 1:08:27Speaker 6: it's gotten off to a slow start, that's Apple's problem,
- 1:08:31Speaker 6: then they obviously going to have to correct it, because
- 1:08:35Speaker 6: if the seventeen isn't one of them that people are
- 1:08:37Speaker 6: running after right now, that's not a good sign at
- 1:08:40Speaker 6: least for their standpoint. But there's still time. There's still time.
- 1:08:44Speaker 6: I don't know what the fixes of the corrections or
- 1:08:46Speaker 6: what the enthusiasm has to be for them to be
- 1:08:50Speaker 6: more well liked, at least as far as this model goes.
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: Earl Kinsey, thanks very much for being on the show.
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: We appreciate you. I hope you're having a great holiday season.
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: All right, Marvin, talk about the old Apple situation.
- 1:09:04Speaker 4: Yeah, hey, earl, thank you for the support. Man.
- 1:09:06Speaker 7: Uh listen, Apple, everybody in the world is hooked on
- 1:09:10Speaker 7: Apple like it's a drug, okay, and they got a
- 1:09:13Speaker 7: monopoly on this thing.
- 1:09:15Speaker 4: Seriously.
- 1:09:15Speaker 7: I mean, the they've impacted, you know, not just American culture,
- 1:09:18Speaker 7: but the world with this Apple product and their in
- 1:09:20Speaker 7: their marketing that they did a phenomenal job with that.
- 1:09:23Speaker 7: So I mean they're on, They're on. They just they
- 1:09:26Speaker 7: have a calendar when they want to kick stuff out. Uh,
- 1:09:29Speaker 7: they know people are gonna buy it.
- 1:09:30Speaker 4: Uh.
- 1:09:31Speaker 7: Unfortunately, they pushed the product out that wasn't quite ready yet,
- 1:09:34Speaker 7: and you know, they they they paid the price for that.
- 1:09:37Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, because it's it's competitive out
- 1:09:39Speaker 7: there with technology, it really is. But you know, Apple,
- 1:09:42Speaker 7: Apple will bounce back, you know how you know, how
- 1:09:44Speaker 7: this thing goes, they'll battle back with something else. Uh,
- 1:09:46Speaker 7: they'll fix it, they'll do a recall or however they
- 1:09:49Speaker 7: go in that industry. But I'm not worried about them.
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:09:53Speaker 7: People who have the right amount of Apple stock, those
- 1:09:56Speaker 7: Apple executives, then they're making money out of the way, baby, Okay,
- 1:09:59Speaker 7: don't don't believe the high.
- 1:10:01Speaker 4: They're making money out of the way, and Apple was
- 1:10:03Speaker 4: still winning this race.
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: Candy.
- 1:10:07Speaker 5: So there are a couple of things that contributed to
- 1:10:10Speaker 5: the reason why the stock dropped in early September of
- 1:10:15Speaker 5: twenty five, particularly after its iPhone seventeen launch launched on
- 1:10:19Speaker 5: September ninth. Investors were underwhelmed by new products perceived lack
- 1:10:27Speaker 5: of major AI innovations. They felt Apple was lagging behind
- 1:10:33Speaker 5: the competitors like Microsoft and Google in the AI race,
- 1:10:37Speaker 5: despite some health focused AI features. They were also worried
- 1:10:42Speaker 5: about the ongoing US and China trade tensions and potential
- 1:10:47Speaker 5: new tariffs, added cost worries and uncertainty. Some investors hoped
- 1:10:52Speaker 5: for higher price increases on new models, which didn't fully materialize.
- 1:10:58Speaker 5: But the demand is still there. People that like Apple
- 1:11:03Speaker 5: stay with Apple, and so you're gonna keep upgrading. Let's
- 1:11:08Speaker 5: face it, these phones only last us, you know, a
- 1:11:11Speaker 5: couple of years, and then either you want the newest, latest,
- 1:11:13Speaker 5: and greatest. If you're especially if you're young, you're walking
- 1:11:17Speaker 5: around with the newest, latest and greatest, and if you're
- 1:11:20Speaker 5: an iPhone Apple user, you're gonna you typically stay and
- 1:11:24Speaker 5: keep going with that brand. If you're an Android user,
- 1:11:27Speaker 5: you stay Android. If you're an Apple you stay in Apple.
- 1:11:31Speaker 5: So I didn't see even though the stock dropped, I
- 1:11:36Speaker 5: knew it would bounce back because again we're talking about Apple,
- 1:11:39Speaker 5: and Apple lovers are gonna keep buying Apple products, right, stuff?
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: One more not they have some more non sports topics night.
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: I think it's long, especially at this time, and they
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: are to do it. Here's a good feel good story.
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: What another that for an inocentt man who spent thirty
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: eight years in a prison gets twenty five million for
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: wrong full murder condition.
- 1:12:00Speaker 6: George, did you say twenty five million dollars?
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: Five dollars? Oh my gosh.
- 1:12:08Speaker 6: Wow. Well, unfortunately, this is what's happening in many instances.
- 1:12:14Speaker 4: You know what.
- 1:12:16Speaker 6: You know, the depth of knowledge as we have from
- 1:12:19Speaker 6: science and going into these re examination of you know,
- 1:12:25Speaker 6: crimes that were supposedly committed by an individual, you know,
- 1:12:28Speaker 6: and you've got the right lawyers and the right NCIS
- 1:12:32Speaker 6: group behind you. I mean, the thing is is that
- 1:12:37Speaker 6: that's a.
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: Terrible mistake to make.
- 1:12:39Speaker 4: Let's be honest.
- 1:12:39Speaker 6: I mean, you know, somebody to be locked up for
- 1:12:42Speaker 6: whatever reason and then tried and then thrown in jail
- 1:12:45Speaker 6: for so many years, and we see this happen a lot.
- 1:12:49Speaker 6: But the advancement of science and evidence and those sorts
- 1:12:54Speaker 6: of things I think really have opened up opened up
- 1:12:59Speaker 6: a new life for people that are incorrectly charged and incorrectly.
- 1:13:03Speaker 4: Judged and thrown in jail.
- 1:13:07Speaker 6: So he deserves or she deserves everything they get when
- 1:13:10Speaker 6: they have a settlement such as this if they're indeed
- 1:13:13Speaker 6: are not guilty.
- 1:13:15Speaker 4: Marvin, Yeah, you know, twenty five million dollars.
- 1:13:18Speaker 7: Obviously, you know he's going to be fine moving forward,
- 1:13:21Speaker 7: you know, but you have to ask yourself, what would
- 1:13:24Speaker 7: you rather have your life back or you know, have
- 1:13:26Speaker 7: to be able to go back and never do that time.
- 1:13:28Speaker 7: And you think, if you have kids, you know, think
- 1:13:30Speaker 7: about how impact your kids that relationship, you were married,
- 1:13:33Speaker 7: you had a girlfriend, you know, your parents, you had siblings.
- 1:13:36Speaker 7: I mean, the money is great, and he can really,
- 1:13:39Speaker 7: you know, do a lot and impact his family moving forward.
- 1:13:42Speaker 7: But you can't tell me that he would rather go
- 1:13:45Speaker 7: back in time and be not guilty and just be
- 1:13:47Speaker 7: able to earn it like everybody else, you know what
- 1:13:49Speaker 7: I'm saying. So I'm happy that we're at a point where,
- 1:13:52Speaker 7: you know, science can impact people's lives like this, and
- 1:13:56Speaker 7: we can get people off. The reality is, you know,
- 1:13:58Speaker 7: prison is definitely fieled full of people who committed crimes.
- 1:14:01Speaker 7: But you know there are many people like him who
- 1:14:04Speaker 7: are innocent, who didn't have technology, didn't have science, didn't
- 1:14:08Speaker 7: have advocates, and they're sitting in that jails.
- 1:14:10Speaker 2: Man.
- 1:14:11Speaker 4: That's heartbreaking when you think about that man.
- 1:14:13Speaker 7: So, yeah, I guess it's a positive ending because he
- 1:14:16Speaker 7: got out. A guy who was innocent got out. Thankfully,
- 1:14:20Speaker 7: there was no issue with compensation. He was taken care of,
- 1:14:25Speaker 7: and you know, I just hope that moving forward he's
- 1:14:28Speaker 7: able to get his life back in order with his family.
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: Candy.
- 1:14:33Speaker 5: Yeah, as you read this story, an innocent man who
- 1:14:37Speaker 5: spent thirty eight years behind bars in California was awarded
- 1:14:42Speaker 5: twenty five million dollars in what his lawyers called the
- 1:14:45Speaker 5: largest wrongful conviction settlement in state history. The settlement was
- 1:14:50Speaker 5: reached in August. According to documents, Maurice Hastings, he's seventy
- 1:14:56Speaker 5: two years old, was convicted and sentenced to life in
- 1:14:59Speaker 5: prison with out parole in connection with a nineteen eighty
- 1:15:04Speaker 5: three sexual assault and murder who and she was killed
- 1:15:09Speaker 5: by a single gunshot to the head. Basically, no amount
- 1:15:14Speaker 5: of money, he said, could ever restore the thirty eight
- 1:15:16Speaker 5: years of my life that were stolen from me. But
- 1:15:19Speaker 5: the settlement is a welcome end to a very long road.
- 1:15:23Speaker 5: I look forward to moving on with my life. Basically,
- 1:15:27Speaker 5: they sought DNA testing back in two thousand, but was
- 1:15:32Speaker 5: denied at the time. Then they he submitted a claim
- 1:15:36Speaker 5: of innocence to the DA's Conviction Integrity Unit in twenty
- 1:15:41Speaker 5: twenty one, and DNA testing found that the seamen was
- 1:15:45Speaker 5: not his in twenty twenty two. In twenty twenty two,
- 1:15:50Speaker 5: when he was sixty nine, hastings conviction was vacated at
- 1:15:53Speaker 5: the request of prosecutors and lawyers. The DNA profile was
- 1:15:57Speaker 5: put into a state database and me to a separate person. Basically,
- 1:16:04Speaker 5: in twenty twenty three, a California judge ruled that Hastings
- 1:16:08Speaker 5: was factually innocent, which means that evidence proves conclusively that
- 1:16:13Speaker 5: Hastings did not commit the crime. But now he's gone
- 1:16:17Speaker 5: and gotten the wrongful, getting the money for all those
- 1:16:22Speaker 5: years of wrongfully imprisoned. I can't begin to imagine spending
- 1:16:31Speaker 5: one day, much less thirty eight years of your life
- 1:16:36Speaker 5: for something you had nothing to do with, absolutely nothing.
- 1:16:40Speaker 5: It's just sad. Yees, twenty five million dollars is not
- 1:16:44Speaker 5: going to bring anything back any the amount of time back.
- 1:16:49Speaker 5: Hopefully he can live comfortably now, and it's just sad.
- 1:16:56Speaker 5: It's sad to see anybody wrongfully in prison.
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: I think I would say about Hastings, I hope he
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: has a book in mind. I'm sure a lot of
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: people would.
- 1:17:06Speaker 4: Buy it.
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: A movie or movie.
- 1:17:10Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, all right, there we go.
- 1:17:13Speaker 2: All right, so let's talk about the Detroit Lions a
- 1:17:15Speaker 2: little bit.
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: One of the draft choices that's actually panned out was
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: tatee rat Leig He became a beast George. Obviously, they
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: lost Frank rag Now and they've been hurt on the
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: offensive line. What are you hearing about Tate Ratligion the
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: type of pickup that he wants for the Lions.
- 1:17:30Speaker 6: Well, I think he's really progressed well this year, and
- 1:17:33Speaker 6: I think they're pretty happy with him. The unfortunate part is,
- 1:17:36Speaker 6: like you said, they've lost drag Now, they lost so
- 1:17:38Speaker 6: much other support in that offensive line that that's put
- 1:17:42Speaker 6: more pressure on this kid. So you ideally don't want
- 1:17:47Speaker 6: to start out, especially when you're a very successful team
- 1:17:50Speaker 6: like the Lions. You don't want to start out and
- 1:17:52Speaker 6: push this kid right into a starting role. But you know,
- 1:17:54Speaker 6: they they've been decimated and uh but I think he's
- 1:17:58Speaker 6: got a really good future. I think they're happy with
- 1:18:00Speaker 6: this progress. They just got to get a better supporting cast.
- 1:18:03Speaker 6: It's gonna be a tough offseason because the Lions are
- 1:18:06Speaker 6: gonna have to make some serious decisions here about what
- 1:18:09Speaker 6: they're gonna do offensively on the offensive line. Uh but
- 1:18:13Speaker 6: but you're right. I mean, he's he's done a good job.
- 1:18:17Speaker 6: I like grat legend. I think he'll be a good
- 1:18:20Speaker 6: starter for hopefully many years to come in Detroit.
- 1:18:25Speaker 2: Marvin.
- 1:18:26Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm not super familiar with the player, but uh,
- 1:18:28Speaker 7: I know that Detroit has had problems at the line
- 1:18:31Speaker 7: and in the NFL. I mean, it doesn't matter what
- 1:18:34Speaker 7: else you have. If you don't if you're not tough
- 1:18:36Speaker 7: in the middle, if you're not tough at the line,
- 1:18:38Speaker 7: if you d line, if you can't protect your quarterback,
- 1:18:41Speaker 7: if you you know, if you can't do these things
- 1:18:43Speaker 7: and you're hurting with injuries, it's gonna be hard to
- 1:18:45Speaker 7: compete and over time with five guys. I mean, you
- 1:18:49Speaker 7: you want guys to pay to be able to play together.
- 1:18:51Speaker 7: You want continuity, You want, you know, guys to have
- 1:18:53Speaker 7: that kind of relationship and have that kind of conference.
- 1:18:56Speaker 7: And it's tough, man, when you're when you're bouncing players
- 1:18:58Speaker 7: out because of injury, putting in new players, and you know,
- 1:19:01Speaker 7: it's as hard to win like that. So you know,
- 1:19:05Speaker 7: and you see it with Detroit. You see where they're
- 1:19:07Speaker 7: at now, right in addition to the fact that you
- 1:19:09Speaker 7: know they're still dealing with the loss of their offensive coordinator,
- 1:19:12Speaker 7: which was our offensive voice, their leader.
- 1:19:14Speaker 4: That stuff matters.
- 1:19:14Speaker 7: When you look at the ttaliti of all that stuff,
- 1:19:16Speaker 7: you know, I mean, it all kind of makes sense.
- 1:19:17Speaker 7: So yeah, Detroit has a lot of things to figure out.
- 1:19:20Speaker 7: And they got some guys, some stars who are paid.
- 1:19:23Speaker 7: They got to figure out how to capitalize on these investments.
- 1:19:27Speaker 5: Katie Date was selected by the Lions in the second
- 1:19:33Speaker 5: round of the twenty twenty five NFL Draft. And he
- 1:19:37Speaker 5: comes from where did he play college None other than
- 1:19:41Speaker 5: the Georgia Bulldog So you know he knows how to play.
- 1:19:46Speaker 5: He was an All American and a two time national
- 1:19:49Speaker 5: champion with Georgia Bulldogs. He's originally from Chattanooga, Tennessee. He's
- 1:19:55Speaker 5: twenty four years old, He's six foot six, three hundred
- 1:20:00Speaker 5: and fifteen pounds. Sounds like someone I don't want to
- 1:20:04Speaker 5: mess with. So anytime your offensive line, defensive line, if
- 1:20:12Speaker 5: you have anytime you have injuries. It doesn't matter where
- 1:20:15Speaker 5: in the NFL. It matters, especially if your first string
- 1:20:19Speaker 5: and when you go down and you and let's face it,
- 1:20:23Speaker 5: the offensive line protects Jared Goff and he needs that protection.
- 1:20:28Speaker 5: It takes time for these runners to run routes and
- 1:20:32Speaker 5: remember there's safeties and people running with them and trying
- 1:20:35Speaker 5: to disrupt them. There's time. Sometimes you need time to
- 1:20:39Speaker 5: get separation. So Jared needs time to be able to throw.
- 1:20:43Speaker 5: And the other thing is you have Sonic and Boon,
- 1:20:47Speaker 5: two guys that are great running backs that they need
- 1:20:51Speaker 5: people to spread that line out so that they have
- 1:20:54Speaker 5: running lanes to run through, so hopefully he'll he sounds
- 1:20:58Speaker 5: like a good pickup. Sometimes it just takes time for
- 1:21:01Speaker 5: them to get NFL ready. And Marvin, you've talked about
- 1:21:05Speaker 5: the pace of the NFL and how it's a different
- 1:21:08Speaker 5: game and you got to get used to that. That
- 1:21:10Speaker 5: matters too. That takes time.
- 1:21:13Speaker 4: Yeah, I got about it. Different tempos in college.
- 1:21:16Speaker 7: You know, these these guys are so efficient in their movement,
- 1:21:19Speaker 7: and you know there's less wasted steps. That's what makes
- 1:21:22Speaker 7: the game faster. You know it's happening right now, no
- 1:21:25Speaker 7: wasted movement. These guys are trained on footworking on stuff.
- 1:21:28Speaker 7: So you have to adjust to that. And that's you
- 1:21:30Speaker 7: know for any rookie, first year player, young player, that
- 1:21:34Speaker 7: that's part of the process.
- 1:21:35Speaker 2: Okay, so we have Earl Kinsey. Twenty five million is
- 1:21:38Speaker 2: not enough. I would have asked the two of the
- 1:21:40Speaker 2: year for each years. I was at a bad point.
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: If the NFL finds DJ, I think they suspended the
- 1:21:45Speaker 2: two games. I think that's not a meal.
- 1:21:47Speaker 7: Yeah, two games, Scott, listen, I'm gonna I'm playing in
- 1:21:51Speaker 7: my Fantasy Championship next week.
- 1:21:52Speaker 4: I got DK he's my number one receiver. Now he
- 1:21:55Speaker 4: can't play.
- 1:21:57Speaker 2: Go here.
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: You have an old Gosh, you're a great contrive. I
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: appreciate it. Everybody's spoken on bratt legs.
- 1:22:02Speaker 2: Is that correct? Yeah?
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: They have another non sports topic of the night. I'm
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: full of them to night, but some of these are
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: pretty interesting, so I figured i'd throw them out here
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: tonight here on our Christmas version of the Sports Exchange.
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: But that said, there are more castles get this in
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: Germany than McDonald's. How about that, more castles than McDonald's.
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: I didn't think that was possible in America. Germany is
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: home to over twenty five thousand castles, while the USA
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: has thirteen thousand. McDonald's, Candy, what are your thoughts about that?
- 1:22:33Speaker 5: Yeah? I mean Germany has a deep historic route, an
- 1:22:38Speaker 5: extensive agricultural heritage compared to us are modern fast food.
- 1:22:46Speaker 5: I'm looking forward to our cruise next year because our
- 1:22:51Speaker 5: cruise does go to Germany and maybe we'll be able
- 1:22:55Speaker 5: to see some of that rich heritage and the architecture,
- 1:23:00Speaker 5: which I think is cool. So can't wait.
- 1:23:04Speaker 1: Yeah, like Candy said, I come up with anything, and
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: now we're talking castles, Germany McDonald's.
- 1:23:09Speaker 2: Marvin, don't worry. Well, I want to make an oprepore.
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: Marvin goes through the debut of the MotorCity, Manmouth and Marvin.
- 1:23:17Speaker 2: At the MIC show will be on New Year's Eve.
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: Okay forget day Clark, Hey, guys, Scott and Marvin six o'clock.
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: The third time we're going to do an introductory show
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: and that's one of those things where forget sec because
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: we'll be talking about atg anything goes so for those
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: of you know, and Marvin's already smiling and said, oh
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: my god, I'm meant for Marvin Sleep. To me, my
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: brother is a luxury. Okay, people look at Mercedes, they
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: look at rules catalyzed luxuries. Sleep, I need it, but
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: it's a luxury. Marvin so talks about castles Germany and
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: Max listen.
- 1:23:53Speaker 7: In regards to McDonald's, it speaks to our culture, man,
- 1:23:56Speaker 7: you know they have they're so dominant in our culture,
- 1:23:58Speaker 7: and we're fast food, processed food, and that's that's part
- 1:24:01Speaker 7: of American culture. America's we're young, you know, we don't
- 1:24:04Speaker 7: have that kind of history like Candy was talking about
- 1:24:06Speaker 7: with uh with Germany. So, yeah, it kind of makes sense.
- 1:24:11Speaker 7: And uh, I hope that we get away from this
- 1:24:14Speaker 7: fast food, even though I've bought more happy Moss for
- 1:24:17Speaker 7: my kids than anybody on the planet.
- 1:24:19Speaker 2: Uh, I'm not so sure.
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: Rubby McDonald's in Germany, again, we didn't eat any McDonald's
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: candy what we were overseas before, so I don't see it.
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: I think I like the food you don't.
- 1:24:35Speaker 4: Go over season eat McDonald's. Scott.
- 1:24:37Speaker 7: We went to We went to uh, New York for
- 1:24:39Speaker 7: for things, giving around. Yeah, and my daughter wanted to
- 1:24:43Speaker 7: eat fast food. I'm like, you don't come to time.
- 1:24:45Speaker 7: You don't come to New York for fast food, you.
- 1:24:47Speaker 4: Know what I mean? So you know crazy?
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: Yeah, I was only gonna go in there and take
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: pictures to get the food. I mean, come on, pictures
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: of Polaroi moment. But I went all the way, all right, George.
- 1:24:58Speaker 6: I plan in Hollywood and Times Square once. That's a
- 1:25:03Speaker 6: little bit.
- 1:25:05Speaker 4: That's not good, George.
- 1:25:08Speaker 6: Oh come on, come on.
- 1:25:14Speaker 4: Get a slice of pizza.
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: I mean, come on, Germany, George, you gotta learn how
- 1:25:20Speaker 2: to travel man in Germany.
- 1:25:22Speaker 6: If Germany sold brought worst or knock worse at those McDonald's,
- 1:25:26Speaker 6: then they'd be doing the right thing, don't Well do
- 1:25:30Speaker 6: we know that for a fact, let.
- 1:25:33Speaker 2: Me tell you everybody googles everything up time off for
- 1:25:37Speaker 2: a little bit.
- 1:25:37Speaker 6: Well, will I think that better? They are eating better?
- 1:25:42Speaker 6: But the Germans do have a stronger diet. They like
- 1:25:46Speaker 6: sewer kraut and things like that. So it doesn't surprise
- 1:25:48Speaker 6: me that McDonald's is not as successful over there. But
- 1:25:52Speaker 6: I will research that a little bit and see if
- 1:25:54Speaker 6: they ever served the German knockworst.
- 1:25:57Speaker 4: Yeah, I do that.
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: I mean I had no problem with the Sauer Krauts
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: up and all that, cause Brent Worth, whatever you call
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: those things, that's a different food. I want to talk
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: about the other stuff that only puts weight on you
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: and makes hay Sex Calhoun, the former wrestler, look like.
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: He's not that call you set them in. Really seriously, really,
- 1:26:14Speaker 2: that's what't wearing that?
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: Because I am that's I can make a marketing deal
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: off of all the stupid.
- 1:26:18Speaker 2: Things he does.
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: All right, Well, but we'll make him feel more comfortable
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: with the next topic, the Detroit Lions.
- 1:26:24Speaker 2: They have lost consecutive career.
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: Well, Detroit Lions have lost consecutive games for the first
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: time to the twenty twenty twos, stamping a fifteen game
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: losing streak. Obviously, Georgia saw that streak come to an
- 1:26:35Speaker 1: end yesterday Pittsburgh. It is a pretty decent streak when
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: you put it in a proper perspective.
- 1:26:40Speaker 2: But now they better not lose three.
- 1:26:43Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I mean, if they lose, they're over with.
- 1:26:46Speaker 6: We all know that there's still all the hanging on
- 1:26:48Speaker 6: by eight percent chance or something they say of making
- 1:26:51Speaker 6: the playoffs. Yeah, that was quite a streak going back
- 1:26:54Speaker 6: to twenty twenty two. I mean, Dan Campbell and his
- 1:26:57Speaker 6: staff did a hell of a job not losing back
- 1:26:59Speaker 6: to back games. But the fact is is that they
- 1:27:03Speaker 6: don't look good. The last half of this season has
- 1:27:06Speaker 6: been very, very fruitless for the most part. So I
- 1:27:10Speaker 6: think that the big thing to me is the fact
- 1:27:13Speaker 6: that when you replace your offensive coordinator and you tell
- 1:27:17Speaker 6: mister Morton he's not gonna call plays anymore, that was
- 1:27:20Speaker 6: a really, really blow to that man's ego. But also
- 1:27:25Speaker 6: it also puts you under a lot of pressure if
- 1:27:27Speaker 6: your name is Dan Campbell. So there's a lot of
- 1:27:30Speaker 6: things going on right now here that are not good.
- 1:27:32Speaker 6: We talked about injuries already, the depth issues are not there.
- 1:27:36Speaker 6: But the fact of the matter is is they still
- 1:27:38Speaker 6: have a sliver.
- 1:27:39Speaker 4: Of a chance.
- 1:27:40Speaker 6: But we'll see what happens. They got to hope for
- 1:27:42Speaker 6: a Packers loss obviously in the next two day games,
- 1:27:47Speaker 6: and the Lions have to win both of them. I
- 1:27:49Speaker 6: don't see that happening, but we'll see.
- 1:27:52Speaker 2: I'll never revenge game gets sort of like he's at
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: Christmas date Marvin.
- 1:27:55Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, this is the top time of year
- 1:27:57Speaker 7: where you want to see the playoff teams and the
- 1:28:00Speaker 7: contenders look sharp, look dominant, you know, and with Detroit,
- 1:28:04Speaker 7: the wheels are just falling off, man, you know what
- 1:28:06Speaker 7: I mean.
- 1:28:06Speaker 4: It's really been like that since you lost your coordinators
- 1:28:09Speaker 4: who know who.
- 1:28:10Speaker 7: You realize now you realize how valuable those guys were,
- 1:28:13Speaker 7: Aaron Glenn on defense and then Ben Johnson on offense.
- 1:28:17Speaker 4: I mean, these guys.
- 1:28:18Speaker 7: Detroit had probably the best coordinator combination in the league.
- 1:28:21Speaker 7: You know that, it's fair to say that. So when
- 1:28:23Speaker 7: you lose that kind of leadership and then you start
- 1:28:25Speaker 7: losing players on the offensive line, it's just a bad combination.
- 1:28:29Speaker 4: When when you're a head coach, you know is holding
- 1:28:32Speaker 4: the call sheet, he's one.
- 1:28:34Speaker 7: Making the calling the playoff fourth down, and that's not
- 1:28:37Speaker 7: really what he does. You know, that's you know, that's
- 1:28:39Speaker 7: that's tough, man. So you know, play Collins a little
- 1:28:42Speaker 7: bit more strategic than that. These guys put a lot
- 1:28:44Speaker 7: more work into it. I'm not saying that he doesn't,
- 1:28:47Speaker 7: but you know, you have to have a feel for
- 1:28:49Speaker 7: that kind of stuff, you know what I mean, And
- 1:28:50Speaker 7: it's just there's not something you just you know, thug out.
- 1:28:53Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. You don't muscle that out.
- 1:28:54Speaker 4: It's not like that.
- 1:28:55Speaker 7: So yeah, you know, like I said, the wheels just
- 1:28:58Speaker 7: falling off, and I don't think this is gonna be
- 1:29:00Speaker 7: a pretty ending for the Lions.
- 1:29:01Speaker 4: The last couple of games, k D.
- 1:29:06Speaker 5: Where do I start? Oh my goodness, Okay, that's.
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: Usually at the beginning, But that's okay, You're so, you know.
- 1:29:15Speaker 2: Full I'm so. I'll always still a compliment, I know,
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: I know.
- 1:29:22Speaker 5: So let's give kudos to work where it is deserved.
- 1:29:27Speaker 5: Ben Johnson. I mean, who who thought Chicago would turn
- 1:29:34Speaker 5: around like they have under Ben Johnson? Last year? They
- 1:29:41Speaker 5: were five and twelve, five and twelve, and now they're
- 1:29:46Speaker 5: sitting top of the NFC North at eleven and four.
- 1:29:50Speaker 5: And what's different, Ben Johnson? What's different with the Lions? Yes, Marvin,
- 1:29:56Speaker 5: both Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn and I you give it,
- 1:30:00Speaker 5: you gotta give it kudos to both of them, but
- 1:30:03Speaker 5: not only Here's what I'm gonna say. And the Lions
- 1:30:07Speaker 5: had a lot of injuries last year. They have a
- 1:30:10Speaker 5: lot of injuries this year, but they have a lot
- 1:30:12Speaker 5: had a lot of injuries last year, but they were
- 1:30:15Speaker 5: able to overcome with the coaches they had. And here's
- 1:30:21Speaker 5: the one thing I'm gonna say, Ben Johnson knows how
- 1:30:23Speaker 5: to find the strengths of the people he has in
- 1:30:26Speaker 5: front of them and use those strengths to their best
- 1:30:29Speaker 5: ability to get the best result for the team. And
- 1:30:33Speaker 5: that's I think the difference. Sometimes you have good, really
- 1:30:36Speaker 5: good coordinators that don't make good head coaches. I think
- 1:30:41Speaker 5: Ben Johnson is not one of those. I think he's
- 1:30:43Speaker 5: gonna be a really good head coach. He was a
- 1:30:46Speaker 5: really good offensive coordinator, and yes, I agree he maybe
- 1:30:53Speaker 5: I'm not sure, you know. The only thing is Earl.
- 1:30:55Speaker 5: I don't know, because both him and Liam Kohane really
- 1:30:59Speaker 5: have propelled both of their teams and they're both doing
- 1:31:04Speaker 5: really well. So there's there's a number of different coaches
- 1:31:08Speaker 5: I could say that might be up for Coach of
- 1:31:09Speaker 5: the Year, but both of them definitely deserve some consideration.
- 1:31:16Speaker 5: As far as so, I haint the Lions are having
- 1:31:22Speaker 5: injuries in the wrong spots and I don't think their
- 1:31:24Speaker 5: coaches are able to overcome those injuries as well. You know, obviously,
- 1:31:32Speaker 5: I'm on the opposite side for you. You guys, you
- 1:31:35Speaker 5: guys want green Bay to lose, and I want green
- 1:31:37Speaker 5: Bay to win because I want to see green Bay
- 1:31:39Speaker 5: getting in the playoffs. But what a difference the NFC
- 1:31:43Speaker 5: North is now that there are at least three very
- 1:31:46Speaker 5: competitive teams in the North. Kudos to you know, all
- 1:31:54Speaker 5: of them. So hopefully we'll see who comes out on top.
- 1:31:58Speaker 1: You don't survive lose, Brian branch or Kirby Joseph. You
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: just don't secondaries an area you get hit deep. You
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: just can't do that. DJ cooks great, but he's a
- 1:32:09Speaker 1: good player, But I don't know if you just can't
- 1:32:11Speaker 1: surfront those They found a way to make moose along
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: the way to fortify their defensive line to get sacked people.
- 1:32:17Speaker 2: But it's a different animal.
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: When Uchinton sent down I let alone the secondary, that's
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: a different point.
- 1:32:22Speaker 2: They need to win on.
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: They need to at least go ahead and win on
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: Christmas and nothing else. Yeah right, I mean I had
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: to finish over a five hundred with a seventeen game
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: schedule because I think that Ben Johnson's looking for blood.
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: Let's not forget what he's done with Catleb Williams t
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: a heck of a job with him to this guy's
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: gonna sit passing records in Chicago like no other. In
- 1:32:44Speaker 1: Chicago's a tough place to develop a quarterback, let alone
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: woman's playing in Soldier Field. That's on easy plate. They
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: even found their franchise quarterback in years. But they've been
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: way more relevant than in Cleveland Brown for sure. So
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: that's a great contribution, by the way, from eighty three
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: to the early Interaral Kindsie later. So we appreciate their
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: participation here on the Sports Exchange tonight. And I know
- 1:33:04Speaker 1: that a lot of people out there doing their last
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: night Christmas shopping.
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: No problem, go ahead subscribe to help it to me
- 1:33:09Speaker 2: a YouTube channel and then you can watch his entire
- 1:33:11Speaker 2: show on your free time. Maybe a lot a little
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: time on Christmas.
- 1:33:15Speaker 9: To do it.
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: I don't know, but a lot of non forts stuff
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: out there way threw. Some of it's travel related, So
- 1:33:19Speaker 1: it'll give you some things to think about later on
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: down the road as I get ready for tomorrow Nights
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: Inside the Pisk and Casey give Me your Over talks
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: about your takeaway from tonight's show.
- 1:33:32Speaker 9: I like it.
- 1:33:33Speaker 5: I always like the fact that you bring in some
- 1:33:36Speaker 5: nonsports topics, which makes it a more well rounded show,
- 1:33:40Speaker 5: I guess I would say. Don't get me wrong, I
- 1:33:43Speaker 5: love inside the Pigskin. I love talking about football, but
- 1:33:47Speaker 5: I also like, you know, talking about different things as well.
- 1:33:50Speaker 5: So I think you did a good show tonight.
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: Well, what makes that easy, Candy is the fact that
- 1:33:55Speaker 1: that guy underneath me named Marvin Powell the Third didn't
- 1:33:59Speaker 1: get freaked out when I up Charlie Kirk, and now
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: he wants controversial stuff on his show, and so he
- 1:34:04Speaker 1: obviously survived the Kirk shot one and I have.
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: Plenty more things working on. Marvin.
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: You know, you've made the Sports and Change a lot
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: of fun, because that's not an easy show to come
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: on knowing that I'm going to throw different off the
- 1:34:15Speaker 1: wall things that most people.
- 1:34:16Speaker 2: Wouldn't even dare to do. I'm a gun player two
- 1:34:19Speaker 2: like Brett Farva.
- 1:34:19Speaker 1: I've always thought he's my favorite quarterback through the fact
- 1:34:22Speaker 1: that he'd go out there, played two hundred and sixty
- 1:34:24Speaker 1: two three hundred games in a row and get better
- 1:34:27Speaker 1: the way that he is. So as far as I'm concerned,
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: I enjoy it. You know, a lot of people think
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: on their feet, and I'm glad the group we have
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: on there are well rounded up. Marvin, You're one of
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: the reasons I've added even more of them. Sometimes I
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: late to taper off some of them. Sometimes I'll go
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: to a series like I did with Riz Carleton because
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: it was applicable to what everybody would deal with on
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: the road, and you won't get that with any typical things.
- 1:34:48Speaker 1: And I will occasionally throw a series of events pertaining
- 1:34:51Speaker 1: to one subject because I want people to be well
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: rounded there.
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: But the risk one was a no brainer. Your takeaways
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: to Marvin, Yeah.
- 1:34:58Speaker 7: Too much negative talk about the Jets. You can't let
- 1:35:00Speaker 7: Scott do that, Okay, we gotta, we gotta have rules
- 1:35:03Speaker 7: about this situation. If we're gonna do this, man, it's
- 1:35:06Speaker 7: bad enough. I have to live it as a Jet fan.
- 1:35:08Speaker 7: You ain't gotta, you know. Come on, Scott Man, listen,
- 1:35:12Speaker 7: I love it.
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:35:13Speaker 7: Charlie Kirky, you definitely caught me off guard with that.
- 1:35:16Speaker 7: I didn't think you had that in you.
- 1:35:18Speaker 4: But now I know. Okay, not now I know. So listen.
- 1:35:21Speaker 4: You keep us on, You keep us on our toes.
- 1:35:23Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
- 1:35:23Speaker 7: You keep it turning up toes, keep us guests, And
- 1:35:25Speaker 7: I have no idea what was about to come out
- 1:35:27Speaker 7: of your mouth. Uh, you know what, you know what you've
- 1:35:29Speaker 7: been reading this week. You know where your heart is,
- 1:35:31Speaker 7: where your energy is.
- 1:35:32Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 1:35:33Speaker 7: So Mama is ready for that curveball. You know now
- 1:35:37Speaker 7: that now that I know what I'm dealing with.
- 1:35:38Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:35:38Speaker 4: I love doing these shows with you.
- 1:35:40Speaker 7: Guys, and uh looking forward to to all the ones
- 1:35:43Speaker 7: we have coming up.
- 1:35:44Speaker 2: Charlie.
- 1:35:48Speaker 4: Yeah, you you digitally made you digitally made him dead.
- 1:35:51Speaker 7: He's done. Uh, he's digitally gone. You know you we
- 1:35:55Speaker 7: did it man.
- 1:35:56Speaker 5: Uh.
- 1:35:56Speaker 7: Between this the social media uh posts that we're posting
- 1:35:59Speaker 7: with the videos, so.
- 1:36:02Speaker 2: I'll get to them.
- 1:36:02Speaker 1: An ACC Media day, Candy is gonna wonder why the
- 1:36:05Speaker 1: same time much I came up with four questions are
- 1:36:07Speaker 1: gonna ask him a the ACC Media Day in the
- 1:36:10Speaker 1: middle of the night, Candy and I have on my notes.
- 1:36:13Speaker 2: By the way, so that's what actually do it and
- 1:36:17Speaker 2: on trys it don't hit me. I was done for
- 1:36:18Speaker 2: until shit. Sorry George, that's your takeaway my froat.
- 1:36:21Speaker 6: Oh it's a good show. Yeah, lots of good interaction.
- 1:36:24Speaker 6: I like the offbeat stuff as well. I think that
- 1:36:29Speaker 6: we got a good group here. Good panel of course.
- 1:36:31Speaker 6: Two of them signed off already, but that's okay. We
- 1:36:34Speaker 6: had them for the majority of the show, and uh yeah,
- 1:36:37Speaker 6: I mean think it's important to talk about things that
- 1:36:39Speaker 6: are non sports related. There is more than just sports.
- 1:36:45Speaker 6: Oh man, A lot going on in this crazy world
- 1:36:48Speaker 6: of ours.

- 1:41:02Speaker 1: don't check all those boxes, then I don't really think

- 1:41:18Speaker 1: for me, however anybody else wants to do it. I
