- 0:18Speaker 2: Oh boy, here we go. You guys see what the
- 0:22Speaker 2: Mac did yesterday? The Mac? They want to try and
- 0:29Speaker 2: reverse that win. Dude, I want to see. Michigan, Western Michigan. Dude,
- 0:33Speaker 2: I want to see. Take it to court.
- 0:35Speaker 3: I want to see the Mack versus the Big Ten
- 0:37Speaker 3: and Judge Judy.
- 0:39Speaker 2: It's a pretty open and shut case. I don't care
- 0:42Speaker 2: what you want to say. I don't care. Shut your mouth.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Shut your mouth. What do you think is going to
- 0:46Speaker 2: happen here?
- 0:47Speaker 4: Nothing.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. What are we doing? This is all for show.
- 0:51Speaker 2: Of course it is. But, I mean, you've got to
- 0:53Speaker 2: do something to defend your guys. And I appreciate the
- 0:57Speaker 2: effort for it. Hey, by the way, I'm a full
- 0:59Speaker 2: Mac guy now. You know that, right? Here's what's funny.
- 1:06Speaker 2: Can you guys think of what are games in sports
- 1:10Speaker 2: history that have been overturned or redone? I remember the
- 1:14Speaker 2: George Brett Pintar game. They replayed it, right? Correct. Correct.
- 1:19Speaker 2: The final portion of that game, they replayed it. But
- 1:22Speaker 2: I don't know how many times it's happened in sports
- 1:24Speaker 2: history where they've straight up reversed something before. Point is,
- 1:29Speaker 2: it's especially not happening now. I don't know how many
- 1:34Speaker 2: people took Western Michigan money line, but how many people
- 1:37Speaker 2: are going to take their tickets to their local sports
- 1:39Speaker 2: book and be like, actually, they changed the result of
- 1:42Speaker 2: this here. That's not going to happen. The biggest thing
- 1:46Speaker 2: to come out of this, and I didn't know that
- 1:48Speaker 2: this had to be a thing that we discussed in whatever,
- 1:52Speaker 2: but some letter from a secretary at the NCAA, blah, blah, blah,
- 1:58Speaker 2: is now saying, from now on, the clock that we
- 2:02Speaker 2: will use will be the clock that everybody sees. And
- 2:05Speaker 2: it's like, oh, really?
- 2:06Speaker 3: God dang it, all the snot. God, that's so infuriating
- 2:10Speaker 3: to me. Oh, yeah, we'll just go with the one
- 2:14Speaker 3: that's on TV now.
- 2:17Speaker 2: I almost just.
- 2:20Speaker 3: I'm dead serious I want to walk up it's not
- 2:23Speaker 3: her fault it's whoever asked her to write this letter
- 2:28Speaker 3: right I want to go to that person whoever that
- 2:30Speaker 3: is and go blank you.
- 2:32Speaker 5: You know this clock thing reminds me what killed boxing
- 2:36Speaker 5: and boxing has never been the same is corruption and
- 2:39Speaker 5: the corruption of people hiding things judges with different scores
- 2:45Speaker 5: oh yeah The subjectivity of the sport. And what we're
- 2:49Speaker 5: seeing here is a subjective rule put in place on
- 2:51Speaker 5: an objective sport. Football and every most clocked sports, the
- 2:56Speaker 5: clock's right there. It's objective.
- 2:58Speaker 2: You see it.
- 2:59Speaker 5: Now when you hide that and it becomes a subjective issue, like, well,
- 3:02Speaker 5: which clock are you looking at?
- 3:03Speaker 2: It's over.
- 3:04Speaker 5: Now every time something happens at the end of a game,
- 3:07Speaker 5: guess what we're going to do?
- 3:08Speaker 3: What?
- 3:08Speaker 2: What are we going to do? Well, let's check the
- 3:09Speaker 2: actual clock.
- 3:10Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Hey, Vic.
- 3:13Speaker 3: What the Mac is saying is that they're not going
- 3:16Speaker 3: to win.
- 3:16Speaker 2: It's ridiculous.
- 3:17Speaker 3: But the Mac is saying that despite even the clock
- 3:21Speaker 3: differential or whatever, they didn't follow the proper protocol in
- 3:26Speaker 3: the replay. The Big Ten did not. They didn't follow
- 3:30Speaker 3: the proper protocols to be able to initiate the replay.
- 3:32Speaker 2: That's fine, but nothing's going to change.
- 3:34Speaker 3: So let me ask you this.
- 3:35Speaker 2: You know what? It's better that they lost the game.
- 3:37Speaker 2: They get more PR for it. Okay, what should be
- 3:39Speaker 2: done in this case?
- 3:41Speaker 6: Nothing.
- 3:41Speaker 4: Fuck.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Let me lay out my scenario.
- 3:45Speaker 3: Five out of the last eight years, the Western Michigan
- 3:48Speaker 3: Broncos have gone to a bowl game, including last year
- 3:51Speaker 3: the Myrtle Beach Bowl, and they absolutely stomped somebody, 41-6.
- 3:56Speaker 2: Who was it? They stomped. Doesn't matter. Doesn't matter.
- 4:01Speaker 3: Kennesaw State, fine. But what if two years ago they
- 4:05Speaker 3: went to the Veterans Bowl and But they had a
- 4:07Speaker 3: 6-7 season. What if they ended up 5-7?
- 4:12Speaker 2: They give those teams special invites sometimes.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Okay, so this will not cost them a bowl game
- 4:20Speaker 3: if they get through five wins.
- 4:21Speaker 2: I think a bowl game that's looking for a matchup
- 4:24Speaker 2: with teams that are hovering around 6-6 or whatever, they
- 4:27Speaker 2: would be seen as being gracious if they threw an
- 4:30Speaker 2: invite to Western Michigan.
- 4:32Speaker 5: A better question is, what does this say about Michigan
- 4:34Speaker 5: with Bryce Underwood, who makes.
- 4:37Speaker 2: What, $ 5 million a year? Something like that. Is that
- 4:39Speaker 2: the number? Yeah. Something ridiculous?
- 4:41Speaker 5: And in this day and age of college football, where
- 4:45Speaker 5: these guys are paid ridiculous sums of money, what do
- 4:48Speaker 5: you do with your starting quarterback who's owed that money,
- 4:52Speaker 5: who clearly is not that good?
- 4:54Speaker 2: He's not that good. What do you do now? Yeah,
- 4:57Speaker 2: I don't know. How do you bench a guy who
- 4:59Speaker 2: is owed that kind of money?
- 5:00Speaker 3: Go talk to Portnoy. He's the one flipping the bill.
- 5:03Speaker 2: No, it's not. It's Ellison. Oh, it is?
- 5:05Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 5:06Speaker 2: Well, Portnoy gave 10 mil. You know what's funny, though,
- 5:09Speaker 2: out of all of this? Had the game ended when
- 5:12Speaker 2: it was supposed to end, Western Michigan wins, Hail Mary
- 5:16Speaker 2: falls on the turf, right? Or out of bounds or whatever.
- 5:20Speaker 2: If the game ended there, the game's a funny little footnote.
- 5:26Speaker 2: You look back, you're like, oh, that's a pretty cool upset.
- 5:29Speaker 2: Western Michigan beats Michigan. The fact that it ended the
- 5:33Speaker 2: way it did makes it way worse for Michigan and
- 5:37Speaker 2: way better for Western Michigan. I said this yesterday.
- 5:40Speaker 5: I said the result is actually the best result because
- 5:43Speaker 5: Western Michigan can wear that like a badge of honor.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Yeah. Like, you know, we should have won that game.
- 5:47Speaker 5: And Michigan has to wear it like a scarlet letter
- 5:49Speaker 5: for the rest of the season.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Yep. It's great. I swear to God, Michigan, they've played
- 5:56Speaker 2: in a million big games in their history. They've won
- 5:59Speaker 2: national titles. I really think this is going to be
- 6:03Speaker 2: one of the more memorable games in history. Along with
- 6:05Speaker 2: all the good things that happened, this will be one
- 6:08Speaker 2: of the more memorable things that's happened.
- 6:11Speaker 3: Desmond Howard returns against them, the Cordell to Westbrook Hail Mary,
- 6:16Speaker 3: which will live in infamy.
- 6:18Speaker 5: Well, it would be poetic as if, you know, I
- 6:20Speaker 5: don't see Michigan doing much this season.
- 6:22Speaker 2: They just don't. If they both ended up playing in
- 6:25Speaker 2: a bowl game, a rematch. Oh, my God. How cool
- 6:28Speaker 2: would that be? Please do.
- 6:29Speaker 3: Hey, I've got something that's going to affect your Denver
- 6:32Speaker 3: Broncos that we haven't talked about.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Okay, hold on to that for a few minutes. You
- 6:35Speaker 2: got it. Hold on to that for a few minutes.
- 6:36Speaker 3: Just don't let me forget it because I may forget it.
- 6:39Speaker 2: Okay, write it down. Yeah, I mean, I have a
- 6:41Speaker 2: piece of paper and a pen.
- 6:43Speaker 3: I ain't got nothing.
- 6:46Speaker 2: Write it on your computer. I'm not moving on until
- 6:50Speaker 2: you write something down. You never write anything down.
- 6:53Speaker 6: Okay, at 820, Mosier is going to say.
- 6:56Speaker 2: A Broncos thing.
- 6:57Speaker 6: Broncos thing that affects the Broncos.
- 6:59Speaker 2: Broncos related. Broncos related thing. I guarantee he'll forget it.
- 7:03Speaker 2: I got it.
- 7:03Speaker 6: Broncos related thing that affects the Broncos.
- 7:05Speaker 2: It's right here. Thank you. Can I play this for
- 7:07Speaker 2: you guys, though? I don't know if you guys watched
- 7:09Speaker 2: last night. So I had this on mute, so I
- 7:10Speaker 2: didn't hear it, but I watched it happen. Like the
- 7:13Speaker 2: Rockies are playing the Yankees. Is that where you're going?
- 7:16Speaker 2: Aaron Judge is coming back from the 60-day IL. He's
- 7:19Speaker 2: making his return. This is the first inning. And that
- 7:24Speaker 2: is live the center field. It's going to drop. And
- 7:29Speaker 2: then it's kicked.
- 7:30Speaker 7: By McCarthy and everybody moves up 90 feet.
- 7:35Speaker 2: Well that's a shame. The ball's live. The ball's live.
- 7:37Speaker 7: Now it's going to cost the Rockies a run.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. What?
- 7:42Speaker 7: And Warren Schaefer saying wasn't time called.
- 7:46Speaker 8: No.
- 7:46Speaker 2: No. The ball was still in play. The ball was
- 7:48Speaker 2: still in play. Jake was trying to throw it home.
- 7:51Speaker 2: There was no cutoff man.
- 7:53Speaker 8: And Hunter then was looking at the runners didn't see
- 7:58Speaker 8: that ball. So right now just get it back into
- 8:00Speaker 8: an infielder. Just give it right here to Ezekiel. Just
- 8:04Speaker 8: toss it to him. Instead it's throwing home.
- 8:07Speaker 7: Yeah I mean exactly. Jake saying what are we doing.
- 8:12Speaker 7: And that's two errors.
- 8:14Speaker 2: And honestly there's no other way to describe it. That's
- 8:16Speaker 2: flat embarrassing. That can't happen.
- 8:19Speaker 7: That cannot happen. I mean, that looked like, you know,
- 8:24Speaker 7: I don't want to go over the top here, but
- 8:27Speaker 7: that cannot happen.
- 8:30Speaker 2: So it's the first time, well, maybe not the first time,
- 8:33Speaker 2: but real frustration from Goodman and the boys up in
- 8:38Speaker 2: the booth. It's Rocky Stevie on the call, obviously. But
- 8:42Speaker 2: it was a kicked ball from Jake McCarthy that led
- 8:45Speaker 2: to guys going to second and third. Then he throws
- 8:47Speaker 2: it into the infield, not to Zeke Tovar. He throws
- 8:50Speaker 2: it home. Hunter Goodman's not paying attention. It rolls all
- 8:52Speaker 2: the way to the backstop, and the Yankees get their
- 8:54Speaker 2: first run that way. All right, so let me ask
- 8:55Speaker 2: this quick. Why did he throw it home? I just
- 9:00Speaker 2: think he was just throwing it into the infield somewhere.
- 9:03Speaker 2: Give it to a human being. No kidding. No kidding.
- 9:07Speaker 2: I love McCarthy. You know that, right?
- 9:09Speaker 3: McCarthy's a baller. He's an absolute baller. In fact, he
- 9:12Speaker 3: does so many different things. I love him when he
- 9:14Speaker 3: tries to lay down a bunt, even though he's big
- 9:17Speaker 3: enough that he should probably just rake every time he's
- 9:19Speaker 3: at the plate. But he's now screaming at somebody, I
- 9:22Speaker 3: think Hunter Goodman, who's standing at home plate thinking, okay,
- 9:26Speaker 3: there's no way the ball's coming here.
- 9:28Speaker 2: There's no reason for the ball to come home. The
- 9:31Speaker 2: runner had stopped at third.
- 9:32Speaker 3: McCarthy just throws it to the backstop. And I'm going, dude,
- 9:35Speaker 3: that's on you. You booted it, and then you threw
- 9:39Speaker 3: it to the frigging backstop, bro.
- 9:41Speaker 2: That's flat embarrassing. For those who didn't see it, He
- 9:44Speaker 2: didn't like crow hop and rifle it in. It was
- 9:46Speaker 2: just like a lob, but it was to nobody. It
- 9:49Speaker 2: was just like somewhere in the infield.
- 9:52Speaker 3: He threw it, and as Goodman's standing at home plate,
- 9:55Speaker 3: not expecting the ball, not even paying attention, and.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Maybe he should have been, I don't know, all of
- 9:59Speaker 2: a sudden.
- 10:00Speaker 3: it's about 10 feet to his left he just comes
- 10:02Speaker 3: bouncing by the backstop and he's like.
- 10:04Speaker 5: What the dude it was one of those frustrated throws
- 10:07Speaker 5: like oh god that just happened just toss it right.
- 10:10Speaker 3: Went off his shin he tried to field it it
- 10:13Speaker 3: went off his shin and the rest is history yeah the.
- 10:16Speaker 2: Rocks uh Did what they usually do. They tried to
- 10:19Speaker 2: make a comeback after that, and then they got late
- 10:21Speaker 2: in the game, bottom of the eighth, gave up three runs,
- 10:25Speaker 2: and that was kind of it. All right, so they
- 10:27Speaker 2: have 18 games left. They have to win eighth of
- 10:30Speaker 2: the 18 to avoid the big 1-0-0.
- 10:33Speaker 5: All right?
- 10:35Speaker 2: That's correct. Yes.
- 10:36Speaker 5: Two more in New York, three in Detroit, then they've
- 10:41Speaker 5: got four at home against San Diego, three at home
- 10:45Speaker 5: against Seattle.
- 10:45Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
- 10:46Speaker 5: Three against Arizona at home, and then they cap off
- 10:49Speaker 5: the season. Three-game road trip at the White Sox.
- 10:55Speaker 2: Okay. Listing the opponent, I don't even think matters. Well,
- 10:59Speaker 2: I mean, the White Sox lead their division, bro. Yeah,
- 11:04Speaker 2: it's going to be tough.
- 11:07Speaker 3: God, I'm looking at Sanford's thing here. They could finish
- 11:14Speaker 3: with exactly 100 losses.
- 11:16Speaker 2: They got to play 500 baseball, essentially. They just haven't
- 11:19Speaker 2: done that really all year for an 18-game stretch. Hasn't
- 11:24Speaker 2: happened really all year. It's going to be tough. They
- 11:27Speaker 2: were in great position, and then they had that stretch
- 11:30Speaker 2: where they lost seven in a row and five in
- 11:31Speaker 2: a row, and it was like, oh, boy.
- 11:33Speaker 5: Detroit's got nothing to play for.
- 11:39Speaker 2: Neither do the Rockies. I understand. I understand. The Yankees
- 11:44Speaker 2: have a ton to play for.
- 11:45Speaker 5: Clearly the Padres, that's a series that's going to be tough. Arizona,
- 11:49Speaker 5: that's a series. Those two series, watch out.
- 11:52Speaker 2: You know what's funny? I was scrolling through Twitter during
- 11:55Speaker 2: the game, and there was a Yankees fan from New York.
- 11:58Speaker 2: I just came across my algorithm somehow. who said, the
- 12:01Speaker 2: Rockies have like six studs in the lineup. How are
- 12:03Speaker 2: they this bad? And it's like, well, they can't pitch,
- 12:05Speaker 2: first of all. But that is the funny thing about
- 12:08Speaker 2: this team. It's like, Kerrig's a good player. And Rumfield's
- 12:11Speaker 2: a good player. And Goodman's a good player. And Moniac's
- 12:14Speaker 2: a good player. And McCarthy's a good player. And Karros
- 12:17Speaker 2: is a good player. And you are just kind of like,
- 12:21Speaker 2: Why don't you win more? And then you see this,
- 12:24Speaker 2: you're like, oh, well, that's why.
- 12:26Speaker 3: By the way, lost in all this mix is that
- 12:28Speaker 3: Hunter Goodman hit his 37th home run of the season
- 12:30Speaker 3: last night.
- 12:30Speaker 2: I know. Vic, he could get to 40 bombs. That's crazy.
- 12:34Speaker 2: Which is awesome.
- 12:37Speaker 3: And they're going with their ace tonight.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Who's their ace? Who's ace? Sugano. Sugano? Sugano. Rocky, well,
- 12:46Speaker 2: he's 12-8. I mean, he's got a 5-1-9 ERA, but
- 12:48Speaker 2: he's 12-8. That's their ace. Hey, don't look now, by
- 12:51Speaker 2: the way. They've been waiting for this kid to come up.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Not that anybody cares, but I'll just say this real
- 12:55Speaker 2: quick because we're on the two minutes of Rocky's baseball.
- 12:58Speaker 2: Adiel Amador, he's played 11 games since being called up
- 13:01Speaker 2: from AAA. He's got three homers, including hitting one off
- 13:05Speaker 2: Schlittler last night. Woo! That was close. Woo, baby. Um.
- 13:10Speaker 2: But that guy might win a Cy Young, and he just...
- 13:15Speaker 2: I said the man's name. It's tough. It's really tough.
- 13:18Speaker 3: And what I'm saying about that is that if that's
- 13:20Speaker 3: your last name, just to prevent any sort of confusion
- 13:25Speaker 3: or accidental Brett Cain slip-ups, you should change it.
- 13:31Speaker 2: I'm going to mess that up. That's going to happen.
- 13:36Speaker 2: It's tough. Isn't it?
- 13:39Speaker 3: For those who don't know, the Weymouth, Massachusetts native is
- 13:42Speaker 3: named Cam Schlittler.
- 13:44Speaker 2: Think of, like, Schlitz beer. It's like that. Schlittler. But
- 13:50Speaker 2: I am uncomfortable saying it every time.
- 13:52Speaker 3: But if you're on Sports Talk and you're talking fast,
- 13:54Speaker 3: imagine being a Yankees broadcaster. Here's another pitch from Schlittler.
- 13:58Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. Damn it. Bud Light Football Fridays are back. Join

- 15:00Speaker 2: What were you going to say, by the way?
- 15:04Speaker 3: Well, this flew under the radar, I suppose. Nelly, thanks
- 15:07Speaker 3: for reminding me.
- 15:08Speaker 2: He didn't. Actually, Brett reminded you. I just teed you up.
- 15:12Speaker 3: I know, I'm just, I'm giving Steve the business. Do
- 15:15Speaker 3: you realize what happened yesterday?
- 15:16Speaker 4: What happened?

- 15:23Speaker 3: You and your dog are the only people that care
- 15:25Speaker 3: in these parts. Baker Mayfield signed a new three-year contract
- 15:30Speaker 3: with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He finally got it done.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Do you know how much it's worth? $ 165 million with
- 15:38Speaker 3: an average value a whopping $ 55 million.
- 15:39Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 15:46Speaker 2: Would you trade Bo Nix for Baker Mayfield right now?
- 15:50Speaker 4: No.
- 15:51Speaker 2: No, Bo's too young. Then you're going to be.
- 15:53Speaker 3: Paying close to $ 60 million per year for.
- 15:57Speaker 2: Bo Nix soon. I would give Bo that contract immediately.
- 16:01Speaker 2: You'd pay him $ 60 million right now? If I was
- 16:05Speaker 2: presented the option, a three-year deal? At $ 55 million? He's
- 16:11Speaker 2: going to want five. You don't want to watch this season? No,
- 16:15Speaker 2: I would. I do. I'm just saying, if given the option,
- 16:18Speaker 2: I think that that would be a good deal for Bo.
- 16:19Speaker 3: It's going to be close to $ 300 million, I bet.
- 16:22Speaker 3: Five years at 59 or 60.
- 16:25Speaker 2: Here's the thing. I've never understood the.
- 16:27Speaker 3: If he has a good season, he's going to be
- 16:28Speaker 3: next in line.
- 16:29Speaker 5: You know, I've never understood the.
- 16:32Speaker 2: Let's get him something now. I want to see him play.
- 16:35Speaker 2: And guess what?
- 16:36Speaker 5: If he plays out of his mind... And he makes
- 16:39Speaker 5: extra bank because of it.
- 16:40Speaker 2: More power to him. Okay, straw poll. I agree with you.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Straw poll me. Let's do it up.
- 16:44Speaker 3: Straw poll.
- 16:46Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 16:50Speaker 3: Since we're playing.
- 16:52Speaker 2: Super fun football time right now, text line 303-504-0925.
- 16:55Speaker 4: 303-504-0925.
- 16:55Speaker 2: Would you sign Bo Nix to a five-year, $ 60 million
- 16:58Speaker 2: per extension today? Because Baker Mayfield just got... That's different.
- 17:08Speaker 2: That's different than... I said Baker's contract. He's going to
- 17:13Speaker 2: want more... I know he's going to. He's younger.
- 17:16Speaker 3: He's going to want more than Baker's contract.
- 17:20Speaker 2: Prove it this year. If Purdy's making 53, would you
- 17:23Speaker 2: trade Nix for Purdy? No.
- 17:25Speaker 3: He's making 53. So there are your benchmarks right there.
- 17:29Speaker 3: He's making 53. You think Bo Nix is better. Baker's
- 17:32Speaker 3: making 55. You think Bo Nix is better.
- 17:34Speaker 2: Okay, I'll repeat something I asked last week, a couple
- 17:37Speaker 2: weeks ago, or brought this up. Where am I wrong
- 17:40Speaker 2: about this in the logic context? You aren't. You aren't.
- 17:43Speaker 2: But the bottom line is this. What's wrong with the
- 17:45Speaker 2: logic of saying prove it? No, that's what I'm getting at.
- 17:48Speaker 2: I think that this year is going to be the
- 17:50Speaker 2: year that decides this. And I think what Bo Nix,
- 17:54Speaker 2: the hope for Bo Nix this year is this. When
- 17:58Speaker 2: Kel McCarr wanted 20 point, whatever it was, $ 4 million,
- 18:01Speaker 2: whatever the number was, a year, the Avs are like, okay,
- 18:07Speaker 2: I'm not really negotiating this. Let's go ahead and do it.
- 18:13Speaker 2: You want Bo to get to a point where you
- 18:17Speaker 2: feel that way about a contract. Where he says a
- 18:20Speaker 2: number and you're like, cool. That's the ideal place to be.
- 18:24Speaker 2: When Mahomes' contract was up and he said half a
- 18:27Speaker 2: billion dollars, they're like, okay, whatever you need, sure. And
- 18:31Speaker 2: I think that's where you want Bo to get to.
- 18:33Speaker 2: I'm trying to have.
- 18:35Speaker 3: You live in the world of reality because that's what
- 18:37Speaker 3: he's going to get.
- 18:38Speaker 2: Hang on, why are you pretending like people don't understand
- 18:41Speaker 2: that this is what's going to happen if he plays well?
- 18:44Speaker 3: Because you have a hard time understanding things sometimes. I'm
- 18:47Speaker 3: trying to explain it to you, not the listening audience.
- 18:49Speaker 2: You specifically. Vic gets it. Nellie gets it. I feel
- 18:52Speaker 2: like you found some secret code that nobody was aware of,
- 18:55Speaker 2: and I'm telling you everybody's aware of this. That we
- 18:58Speaker 2: all know what's at stake if he gets another contract.
- 19:02Speaker 2: It doesn't matter if you're the best quarterback in the
- 19:04Speaker 2: league or the ninth best quarterback in the league. If
- 19:06Speaker 2: you get paid franchise quarterback money, you will be the
- 19:08Speaker 2: highest paid in the league. The question now is, Do
- 19:11Speaker 2: you feel comfortable in doing that with Bo after this year?
- 19:15Speaker 2: And that's where I think if he can repeat the
- 19:18Speaker 2: same level of success, and for him, here's what's interesting.
- 19:23Speaker 2: I don't know if he's ever going to be, from
- 19:25Speaker 2: a straight numbers perspective, somebody that you would consider a
- 19:29Speaker 2: no-brainer for that contract, but here's where he can do it.
- 19:34Speaker 2: If Bo continues to win, if you make the playoffs again,
- 19:37Speaker 2: win the AFC West, win a couple of playoff games,
- 19:41Speaker 2: find yourself in a similar position to last year competing
- 19:43Speaker 2: for a Super Bowl. You have no other choice. He's winning.
- 19:51Speaker 2: And then the question becomes, well, once he eats up
- 19:54Speaker 2: a gigantic portion of that cap from a percentage perspective,
- 20:00Speaker 2: does the winning still happen when more of that is
- 20:03Speaker 2: going to be his responsibility? And that's what I don't know.
- 20:07Speaker 2: And I hope this year he can sort of cross
- 20:09Speaker 2: that threshold. And I think he will. I have confidence
- 20:14Speaker 2: he's going to take another step forward this year as
- 20:16Speaker 2: a player.
- 20:16Speaker 5: Bo reminds me of when you're shopping for a car
- 20:19Speaker 5: for your 16-year-old girl. Maybe your 18-year-old is going off
- 20:23Speaker 5: to college.
- 20:24Speaker 2: You want a safe car. Safe. It's got to be safe,
- 20:27Speaker 2: first and foremost. Maybe all-wheel drive in case the snow
- 20:31Speaker 2: comes around. And that's what Bo is. He's safe. He
- 20:34Speaker 2: avoids sacks. He avoids turnovers. He's safe. Once in a while,
- 20:39Speaker 2: you want to put it in sport mode and just go, right?
- 20:43Speaker 2: Every once in a while.
- 20:45Speaker 5: And I think that's what a lot of people who
- 20:47Speaker 5: evaluate quarterbacks, that's how they deem him, safe.
- 20:51Speaker 2: It's true. Okay, well, what is Mahomes? What do you mean,
- 20:57Speaker 2: what is he? He's sport mode all the time, typically, right?
- 20:59Speaker 2: He's sport mode, yeah. Okay, he gets 64. What's Dak Prescott?
- 21:05Speaker 2: He's sport mode. That's good, man.
- 21:07Speaker 3: $ 60 million per Baker. Here's the 55 club.
- 21:12Speaker 2: Mayfield.
- 21:14Speaker 3: And I understand that he probably is worth a little
- 21:17Speaker 3: more to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
- 21:18Speaker 2: Well, these are all, you're just getting to the territory
- 21:20Speaker 2: of when these guys were getting paid. Okay.
- 21:22Speaker 3: Well, but put ball against these guys. I mean, does,
- 21:26Speaker 3: in your brain, is he this quarterback?
- 21:29Speaker 2: Joe Burrow? Well, not yet. No. Jared Allen. He's not
- 21:33Speaker 2: the kind of player. Josh Allen. Josh Allen.
- 21:36Speaker 3: Jordan Love, Trevor Lawrence, Matt Stafford.
- 21:38Speaker 2: Yeah, but who's to say? That's the 55. Okay, hang on.
- 21:41Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence. Trevor Lawrence, Josh Allen. Joe Burrow. Baker Mayfield. No,
- 21:48Speaker 2: hang on.
- 21:48Speaker 4: Baker.
- 21:49Speaker 2: Matt Stafford. You listed a whole bunch of guys that
- 21:52Speaker 2: Bo has taken his team farther than any of them have.
- 21:55Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 21:56Speaker 3: And I, okay, God, why do you make me do this?
- 21:59Speaker 2: See, the counter argument would be.
- 22:00Speaker 3: I'll take any of those guys on the Denver Broncos.
- 22:04Speaker 3: Any of those guys on the Denver Broncos. Would you
- 22:06Speaker 3: take any of those guys at the Denver Broncos over
- 22:08Speaker 3: outside of Baker?
- 22:09Speaker 2: Over Bo? Would you take, well, I mean, just for
- 22:12Speaker 2: one season, Matt Stafford. Would you take Joe, right now,
- 22:15Speaker 2: Joe Burrow or Bo Nix? Burrow, of course. Justin Herbert
- 22:20Speaker 2: or Bo Nix? Herbert. I mean, I think he's making it.
- 22:24Speaker 2: But Josh Allen or Bo Nix? But hang on a second,
- 22:26Speaker 2: hang on a second. Trevor Lawrence or Bo Nix? I
- 22:27Speaker 2: think that fit matters. Aaron Gordon is infinitely more valuable
- 22:32Speaker 2: to the Nuggets than he would be to another team. Like,
- 22:35Speaker 2: I do think that there's part of that, too, of fit,
- 22:38Speaker 2: how you work within the context of your roster and
- 22:42Speaker 2: the construction of it and all that different stuff.
- 22:44Speaker 5: Well, you change your damn fit if you have a
- 22:45Speaker 5: quarterback like that, is what I'm saying. If Joe Burrow
- 22:48Speaker 5: comes along, you tell Sean Payton, Davis Webb, you're changing
- 22:51Speaker 5: whatever fit you got.
- 22:52Speaker 2: You're damn right. But when I put, I've put Bo
- 22:55Speaker 2: at this point in the same category that I've put
- 22:57Speaker 2: two other quarterbacks who are good in this league. And
- 23:00Speaker 2: it's Jalen Hurts and Brock Purdy. And here's their category.
- 23:05Speaker 2: I honestly don't know if they are... They might be
- 23:08Speaker 2: great quarterbacks. They might be. It's hard for me to
- 23:11Speaker 2: tell because the rest of their rosters are so good
- 23:15Speaker 2: that I don't know what the responsibility, if it's a
- 23:17Speaker 2: pie chart. I don't know how much goes to the
- 23:19Speaker 2: quarterback position solely. And Bo's kind of like that. Like...
- 23:25Speaker 2: I'm also in the camp of, you don't need Bo
- 23:28Speaker 2: Nix to be a top five quarterback in the league
- 23:31Speaker 2: to have a long, sustained success with Super Bowl hopes.
- 23:35Speaker 2: You don't need that. Because I've heard people talk about
- 23:37Speaker 2: this before.
- 23:38Speaker 3: When he's eating 60 million bucks of your cap, you might.
- 23:42Speaker 2: You might, Brett.
- 23:43Speaker 5: But you're never going to win this argument in Denver
- 23:45Speaker 5: because there's a faction of Bronco fans who believe he
- 23:48Speaker 5: can't miss.
- 23:49Speaker 2: He's, you know, oh my gosh.
- 23:51Speaker 5: And then there's the other, like, well, he's got to
- 23:53Speaker 5: prove it. He hasn't done anything yet. There's no in-between,
- 23:57Speaker 5: it seems. That's just the way it is.
- 24:00Speaker 2: But this is why you have rookie contracts.
- 24:03Speaker 5: Why on earth, you suggested at the beginning of the segment,
- 24:07Speaker 5: pay him his money now.
- 24:08Speaker 2: Why would I do that when I don't have to? Sorry,
- 24:10Speaker 2: I misspoke. What I would say was that contract seems
- 24:13Speaker 2: like one that would be nice for him, which is this. It's,
- 24:16Speaker 2: first of all, a shorter deal, which I like, that
- 24:19Speaker 2: it's three years. You aren't making some six-year commitment to him, right?
- 24:23Speaker 2: But $ 55 million... is the going rate for having a
- 24:26Speaker 2: guy you consider a franchise quarterback. That's just it.
- 24:29Speaker 5: Okay, so all I'm saying is, is it offensive or
- 24:33Speaker 5: insulting to say, you know, listen, we think you're that guy, but.
- 24:37Speaker 2: Show me a little more. No, he's two years in.
- 24:39Speaker 2: I totally agree with you. I think that this year
- 24:44Speaker 2: is so important for two reasons. Number one, because I
- 24:48Speaker 2: think you're built to win a Super Bowl. I do.
- 24:51Speaker 2: I think this roster is built to play and win
- 24:54Speaker 2: a Super Bowl, potentially. Number two, this year is going
- 24:58Speaker 2: to base a lot of what the future of this
- 25:00Speaker 2: team looks like. Talking about just Bo Nix, and are
- 25:02Speaker 2: you willing to give him a longer contract? Because what
- 25:05Speaker 2: I don't think you want to do, you don't want
- 25:07Speaker 2: to head into that fourth year of the rookie deal,
- 25:09Speaker 2: even knowing you have the, I can't think of the word,
- 25:13Speaker 2: the fifth year option. I think you want to be
- 25:16Speaker 2: able to say definitively after this year, yeah, Bo's the
- 25:20Speaker 2: dude sticking. He's the guy. Okay.
- 25:21Speaker 5: So, uh, John, on the text, I writes, it's also
- 25:24Speaker 5: a gamble. What if he goes on to win the
- 25:25Speaker 5: Superbowl this year, then the price will skyrocket.
- 25:27Speaker 2: It won't skyrocket. No, no, he's not. But even if
- 25:30Speaker 2: it does, even if it does, then you got your guy.
- 25:34Speaker 2: So what? Well, exactly.
- 25:35Speaker 5: It's like the Jokic argument.
- 25:37Speaker 2: Oh my God, pay him earlier. His price will skyrocket.
- 25:40Speaker 5: I'm I'm I'll happily pay for the best players. I
- 25:43Speaker 5: happily pay for Cale McCarn.
- 25:45Speaker 2: What he makes. Happily pay for Nikola Jokic and what
- 25:48Speaker 2: he makes.
- 25:48Speaker 5: If you're not happily paying for that kind of production
- 25:51Speaker 5: and that quality of player, what are you doing?
- 25:53Speaker 2: You pay for quality. Agreed. Where's this text? The best
- 25:58Speaker 2: thing in the world would be, oh, God, Bo won
- 26:03Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. Now we have to pay him a
- 26:04Speaker 2: lot of money. Good, you won the Super Bowl. Good.
- 26:07Speaker 2: I completely agree. I completely agree.
- 26:10Speaker 3: Brett's the most logical guy in the station. Mosher, what
- 26:12Speaker 3: do you want to do with Bo Nix? You want
- 26:14Speaker 3: to start over in the draft and hope you find
- 26:15Speaker 3: a better guy? No, I'm not saying that. But I'm
- 26:18Speaker 3: saying that his play is definitely going to have to
- 26:20Speaker 3: elevate because what you said, Kaner, is true. I think
- 26:25Speaker 3: they better take a couple of big runs this year
- 26:28Speaker 3: and the next year.
- 26:29Speaker 2: Big runs.
- 26:31Speaker 3: Because once he starts to eat up that money, though, Vic,
- 26:34Speaker 3: that's where his play, because you can't afford all the
- 26:39Speaker 3: pieces around him, that's where his play is going to
- 26:43Speaker 3: have to carry you more than it is right now.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Quit being terrified, Mr.
- 26:47Speaker 4: Mosier.
- 26:48Speaker 5: Let me offer a brief history lesson when it comes
- 26:52Speaker 5: to paying quarterbacks. There was a time here the Denver
- 26:56Speaker 5: Broncos came off a Super Bowl championship. The year was 2016.
- 27:01Speaker 5: They were Super Bowl champions. And they had an opportunity
- 27:05Speaker 5: to pay a guy big money. That guy started seven
- 27:09Speaker 5: games in that championship season. His name was Brock Osweiler.
- 27:13Speaker 5: They could have retained Brock. And there were a lot
- 27:15Speaker 5: of people in town who said, you can't let him go.
- 27:17Speaker 2: You got to pay him. He proved it. Well, he
- 27:20Speaker 2: got paid by the Houston Texans. And you're damn lucky
- 27:23Speaker 2: that the Broncos didn't pay him.
- 27:26Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 27:26Speaker 2: So it works both ways. Now, I wish they would
- 27:31Speaker 2: have drafted somebody else besides.
- 27:32Speaker 5: That contract was so bad so quickly. Do you remember
- 27:36Speaker 5: what the Houston Texans did to get off that contract?
- 27:40Speaker 3: Yeah, they traded the first rounder.
- 27:42Speaker 2: Along with. Exactly. To Cleveland.
- 27:44Speaker 5: Yes, they pulled an NBA move, which at that time
- 27:47Speaker 5: was unprecedented.
- 27:48Speaker 2: You never saw that.
- 27:49Speaker 5: To get off Brock's contract, they had to throw first
- 27:53Speaker 5: round picks.
- 27:56Speaker 2: I just. Here's what's different. Bo started two straight years.
- 28:03Speaker 2: I mean, Brock was, he filled in for Manning, held
- 28:08Speaker 2: the ship together, all that stuff. There's a wealth of
- 28:12Speaker 2: evidence that you have already with Bo, and if he
- 28:15Speaker 2: puts together another season of it, you know, I'll harken
- 28:21Speaker 2: back to a discussion I had with Birdo in the offseason.
- 28:26Speaker 2: Because Birdo's one of the guys, he goes, this is Denver,
- 28:28Speaker 2: we expect everybody to be Manning in L.A. And I go,
- 28:31Speaker 2: I don't think you can operate that way. If you
- 28:34Speaker 2: find a quarterback that is a winning quarterback, how about this?
- 28:38Speaker 2: What if Bo's Eli? Nobody considered ever. Eli, a top
- 28:44Speaker 2: five quarterback at any point in his career in the league.
- 28:47Speaker 2: But he won. Consistently. He won two Super Bowls. Found
- 28:51Speaker 2: ways to win games. Yes. Won big games. Ain't nothing
- 28:54Speaker 2: wrong with that. And he's now probably a Hall of Famer.
- 28:57Speaker 2: Ain't nothing wrong with that. You don't need to have
- 29:00Speaker 2: John Elway to be successful. You can have other ways
- 29:05Speaker 2: to do it. And I just think that people bypass
- 29:08Speaker 2: that so quickly because it's like we have been so
- 29:11Speaker 2: ingrained in the NFL to be like, which teams are good?
- 29:14Speaker 2: I don't know. Let me list the best quarterbacks in
- 29:16Speaker 2: the league. Well, typically that's the case. Of course. Of course.
- 29:19Speaker 2: But they're hard to find. Yeah, you're going to pay him.
- 29:23Speaker 2: You're going to make his money. I dare you.
- 29:25Speaker 3: I dare you to say that again to my face.
- 29:27Speaker 2: I'll tell you right now. If Bo Nix held a
- 29:29Speaker 2: gun to my head and said, give me a three-year
- 29:31Speaker 2: extension of $ 55 million a year and I'm the Broncos,
- 29:33Speaker 2: I'd do it.
- 29:35Speaker 5: But you're creating a snap decision when you don't have to.
- 29:40Speaker 2: That's the beauty of having this whole season. I'm just
- 29:42Speaker 2: bringing up a hypothetical. If he was like, I'm not
- 29:44Speaker 2: playing on Monday unless I get some sort of extension,
- 29:47Speaker 2: which would never happen.
- 29:48Speaker 5: Of course, because the trend is up. The tree's trending up.
- 29:51Speaker 5: Of course you would do that.
- 29:52Speaker 2: I mean, nobody's denying that.
- 29:54Speaker 5: But the beauty of his contract and the beauty of
- 29:57Speaker 5: this league is it's still a prove-it league.
- 29:59Speaker 2: It's a meritocracy. It really is. Prove it. I guess
- 30:02Speaker 2: I would say. There's nothing wrong with that. Why are
- 30:04Speaker 2: people so offended by that? Even the biggest Bo leavers
- 30:06Speaker 2: out there. I love Bo. I think Bo's going to
- 30:07Speaker 2: be great. But you say prove it and they, oh,
- 30:09Speaker 2: how dare you? Well, how dare what? Every other player
- 30:12Speaker 2: has to prove it. Is he above that?
- 30:14Speaker 5: Patrick Sertan has to prove it again this year.
- 30:19Speaker 2: If Deshaun Watson held a gun to my head and said,
- 30:20Speaker 2: give me a three-year extension, I'd be like, I'm sorry, sir.
- 30:22Speaker 2: You're going to have to kill me right now on
- 30:23Speaker 2: the spot. I agree.
- 30:25Speaker 3: But the thing is, is that you seem to think
- 30:29Speaker 3: it's a no brainer. And for me, realizing that these
- 30:33Speaker 3: quarterbacks eat up a lot of the cap. Man, the
- 30:38Speaker 3: Niners must love Brock Purdy. I think that's a good
- 30:40Speaker 3: comp because Kyle Shanahan has sort of built everything around
- 30:44Speaker 3: Brock Purdy, has he not? And Christian McCaffrey, has he not?
- 30:48Speaker 3: Not Debo, not anybody. It's those two guys, right? So Fit,
- 30:53Speaker 3: I think, has a lot to do with it. Maybe
- 30:54Speaker 3: that's why we're talking about 53 a year for Brock Purdy.
- 30:58Speaker 3: But man, if the Niners had somebody else making 20
- 31:01Speaker 3: and could afford a few more guys, maybe they're battling
- 31:04Speaker 3: with the damn Rams and Seahawks for the top spot
- 31:06Speaker 3: in the NFC West because the Niners are actually a
- 31:09Speaker 3: pretty damn good football team.
- 31:10Speaker 2: A texture says you would pay Eli Manning 50 plus
- 31:13Speaker 2: million dollars a year. I don't know how to break
- 31:15Speaker 2: this to you. He won one, two Super Bowls, two.
- 31:18Speaker 2: made $ 240 million in his career. So, yes, people did
- 31:22Speaker 2: that with Eli Manning. They did it. And that was
- 31:25Speaker 2: back before guys were making $ 50 million a year at quarterback.
- 31:29Speaker 3: Hey, how about when we come back, for those who
- 31:31Speaker 3: haven't heard, a little Wednesday Night Football.
- 31:33Speaker 2: Wednesday Night Football and Oh, By the Way next.

- 32:08Speaker 3: Trips to Kansas City.
- 32:10Speaker 9: Yes, $ 75 total in tickets. And by the way, Mosher,
- 32:15Speaker 9: you know KYP, right? Know your personnel. Our boss left
- 32:19Speaker 9: an example of these scratchers here so I can show
- 32:21Speaker 9: on camera that they are real. And if you look
- 32:23Speaker 9: at this post-it note, it says, for display only, do
- 32:27Speaker 9: not scratch.
- 32:28Speaker 2: So if you want some of these scratchers, you want
- 32:31Speaker 2: to get your hands on those, text scratch in your
- 32:33Speaker 2: first and last name to 303-504-0925. Oh, by the way,
- 32:37Speaker 2: let me start out talking. Hang on, hang on, hang on.
- 32:40Speaker 2: What did you say, Vic? I got a lot of
- 32:42Speaker 2: these OBTWs, so let's be quick here. I got a lot.
- 32:46Speaker 2: You got a lot of FYIs for me? I got
- 32:48Speaker 2: a lot. Okay, why don't you start out then? I'll
- 32:50Speaker 2: finish up.
- 32:50Speaker 5: First one, while we're on the subject of Bo Nix
- 32:53Speaker 5: and everybody's talking, everyone comes out.
- 32:55Speaker 2: With these polls. You know how much I hate these polls.
- 32:58Speaker 2: But this isn't just about Bo Nix. It's about the
- 33:00Speaker 2: quarterback room.
- 33:01Speaker 5: Where do you think the ringer has the Broncos quarterback
- 33:05Speaker 5: room ranked.
- 33:07Speaker 2: In the NFL? 17.
- 33:09Speaker 3: 18.
- 33:11Speaker 2: God, you guys are good. 18 is the number.
- 33:14Speaker 8: Yes.
- 33:15Speaker 2: Who's number one? Room? Number one quarterback room in the
- 33:18Speaker 2: National Football League. I would say it's got to be
- 33:21Speaker 2: close to the Rams. Rams have got it. Would it
- 33:26Speaker 2: be Chiefs with Justin Fields as the backup? They're fourth.
- 33:28Speaker 2: They're fourth. Rams are second.
- 33:31Speaker 5: Number one quarterback room, according to the Ringer, and I
- 33:34Speaker 5: disagree wholeheartedly with this.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Drake May and Tommy DeVito? Really? Are you drunk? Smoking weed?
- 33:41Speaker 2: I totally agree with that.
- 33:42Speaker 3: Hey, man, let me explain something to you.
- 33:44Speaker 2: When the ball got knocked out of Drake May's hands. Hey, dude,
- 33:49Speaker 2: waiting in the wings is Stetson Bennett and Ty Simpson.
- 33:53Speaker 2: I agree.
- 33:54Speaker 3: The Rams are, as soon as Stafford rides off into
- 33:57Speaker 3: the sunset, I think the Rams are going to be
- 33:59Speaker 3: in pretty good shape.
- 34:00Speaker 2: Look, it was preseason, but Ty Simpson actually balled out. Dude,
- 34:03Speaker 2: he balled like a mug. Like a mob. Vic, go
- 34:07Speaker 2: ahead with the other one. You want me to do
- 34:09Speaker 2: two in a row? Oh, by the way.
- 34:10Speaker 3: Well, sure, because I'm saving mine.
- 34:12Speaker 2: Live Golf is now done.
- 34:15Speaker 5: In terms of the funding for Live Golf, they filed
- 34:19Speaker 5: bankruptcy protection.
- 34:20Speaker 2: So they owe all these players money. Big money. DeChambeau,
- 34:24Speaker 2: they owe $ 5.
- 34:25Speaker 6: 7 million.
- 34:26Speaker 2: John Rahm, they owe $ 7. 5 million. Cam Smith, $ 4.
- 34:30Speaker 4: 8 million.
- 34:31Speaker 2: They owe Fresh Tape Media here in town. So they said,
- 34:34Speaker 2: we're out.
- 34:35Speaker 5: Now they're going to reassemble and become a player-owned and
- 34:39Speaker 5: operated league.
- 34:40Speaker 2: It's really the only way they can make their money back.
- 34:42Speaker 2: So these players who are owed all this money, these creditors, they're.
- 34:45Speaker 5: Going to take over ownership of the golf tour and
- 34:48Speaker 5: make that money back.
- 34:49Speaker 2: Try to. I don't think it's going to work. I'm
- 34:50Speaker 2: sure it's going to end very well. Jeez Louise.
- 34:53Speaker 5: But let me tell you how much the Saudi Arabian
- 34:56Speaker 5: Public Investment Fund, how much they spent, the lavish spending,
- 35:00Speaker 5: all right?
- 35:00Speaker 2: Before they broke away and said, we're done. Five billion.
- 35:03Speaker 5: They invested five billion when it first opened. And then
- 35:06Speaker 5: they reportedly spent a hundred million a month to keep
- 35:12Speaker 5: it afloat.
- 35:12Speaker 2: Jeez Louise.
- 35:15Speaker 3: That's insane.
- 35:16Speaker 2: Goodbye. Jeez. That's crazy. Here's no, by the way, do
- 35:23Speaker 2: you guys see that Aaron Donald is not playing in
- 35:26Speaker 2: that first game of the year in Australia? He stayed home.
- 35:28Speaker 2: I figured it would take time for that to ramp
- 35:31Speaker 2: up for him again. You can't just sign two days
- 35:33Speaker 2: before the season starts and then be like, I'm ready
- 35:35Speaker 2: to go. I don't know when he's going to come back.
- 35:37Speaker 2: I would assume he didn't start on like IR or anything.
- 35:40Speaker 2: So probably game two, game three, but you're gonna have
- 35:44Speaker 2: to wait to see that miles Garrett, Aaron Donald duo.
- 35:47Speaker 2: That's great.
- 35:48Speaker 3: So just in time for game three here at.
- 35:50Speaker 2: Mile high could be great.
- 35:53Speaker 3: All eyes on the, if that's the case, if he
- 35:55Speaker 3: doesn't play next week, In week two, all eyes will
- 35:58Speaker 3: be on that game and the return of Aaron Darnold.
- 36:00Speaker 3: Aaron Darnold.
- 36:02Speaker 2: Darnold. Darnold.
- 36:03Speaker 3: Darnold.
- 36:04Speaker 2: Darnold. Darnold. Doodled. What you got, Moshe?
- 36:09Speaker 3: For those who didn't hear it, talked to my good
- 36:12Speaker 3: buddy Jim Dalton yesterday.
- 36:13Speaker 2: Said, hey, man. Oh, wait, wait. Let's save that one
- 36:15Speaker 2: for the end of the segment. Keep these people waiting.
- 36:17Speaker 2: That's what Nelly told me. Oh.
- 36:19Speaker 4: Oh, okay.
- 36:20Speaker 2: So, yeah, let's do it.
- 36:21Speaker 3: So, stay tuned to the end of the segment if
- 36:22Speaker 3: you haven't heard it yet.
- 36:24Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 36:24Speaker 2: Vic, go ahead. Another one? You said you had like
- 36:28Speaker 2: 15 of them. You said you had a bunch. You
- 36:29Speaker 2: told me to shut my hole. I got more. You
- 36:32Speaker 2: just said you had a bunch. Okay, I'll move on.
- 36:35Speaker 2: Two is a lot for me. You specifically told me,
- 36:38Speaker 2: shut your hole. I have a ton of these. I
- 36:43Speaker 2: got one for you. Oh, by the way, Draymond Green
- 36:45Speaker 2: was on his podcast. And Nelly, if you could run
- 36:47Speaker 2: this for me. He was talking about Kawhi. He was
- 36:49Speaker 2: happy that Kawhi did not get punished. He was happy.
- 36:52Speaker 2: But he goes on to talk about the NBA salary cap.
- 36:55Speaker 2: And he thinks it's stupid. Not in the way that
- 36:58Speaker 2: you think. Go ahead, listen.
- 36:59Speaker 4: I'm taking Kawhi's word for what it is, and I'm
- 37:02Speaker 4: happy the team got the bulk of the penalty and
- 37:05Speaker 4: not Kawhi. We heard a lot that Kawhi may be suspended,
- 37:10Speaker 4: and I'm happy he didn't get suspended. Address the issues
- 37:15Speaker 4: of the salary cap. I think that's what comes out
- 37:18Speaker 4: of this.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Why is there a salary cap? Why are guys being.
- 37:21Speaker 4: Why are guys being prevented from making money from.
- 37:26Speaker 2: Team sponsors or league sponsors or whoever else?
- 37:29Speaker 4: And we talk about we're in a league that is player-centric,
- 37:33Speaker 4: that is player-focused, that is player-driven, that has the best
- 37:36Speaker 4: interests for the players. And here's a situation where a
- 37:41Speaker 4: guy can make money. 20 to 30 extra million dollars.
- 37:44Speaker 2: And we're like, shut it, shut it off. Shut it off.
- 37:47Speaker 2: How much does that piss you off? A league where
- 37:49Speaker 2: people make 80 million dollars a year is like, why
- 37:52Speaker 2: are they preventing us from making extra... Kawhi was making
- 37:56Speaker 2: 60-some million dollars per season before endorsements. Before.
- 38:03Speaker 3: Nobody is saying you can't make an extra 20 million
- 38:05Speaker 3: per season.
- 38:06Speaker 5: You can't funnel money from the owner to the fake
- 38:09Speaker 5: business and then make that money.
- 38:11Speaker 2: That's where it goes haywire, yes.
- 38:13Speaker 5: I mean, how difficult is this to understand? It's not
- 38:15Speaker 5: about making sponsorship money. Anybody can make sponsorship.
- 38:18Speaker 2: Money and marketing money. Make as much as you want.
- 38:21Speaker 2: You're worth what you... What you can't do is have
- 38:23Speaker 2: an owner.
- 38:24Speaker 5: Come up with this fake tree farm and say, oh,
- 38:29Speaker 5: that's what you can't do.
- 38:30Speaker 2: I mean, well, can somebody get on this guy's podcast
- 38:33Speaker 2: and explain it to him? Look, they conned me. Steph
- 38:35Speaker 2: Curry is going to make $ 400 million over the next
- 38:39Speaker 2: 10 years. You know from who? It's not the Golden
- 38:42Speaker 2: State Warriors. It's from Ling or whatever. And you know
- 38:45Speaker 2: what else I'm sick of? The shoe company.
- 38:47Speaker 5: Some of these players that think it's that easy to
- 38:49Speaker 5: run a business. Let me see you run it then.
- 38:52Speaker 5: You make all this money, right? You make all this money.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Run your own league. Let's see how it goes. Let's
- 38:58Speaker 2: see how long it lasts. Run it. How crazy is that?
- 39:01Speaker 3: Go ahead.
- 39:01Speaker 2: That he went on a podcast. He's like, why don't
- 39:05Speaker 2: we make more money? And you're just like, do you
- 39:08Speaker 2: know the sport that you play?
- 39:12Speaker 3: Self-awareness can be a valuable thing. And Draymond seems to
- 39:15Speaker 3: have none of it. Oh, by the way, for those
- 39:18Speaker 3: of you who are not awake at 1.30 in the
- 39:20Speaker 3: morning Denver time last night, you missed maybe the best
- 39:22Speaker 3: tennis match of the last 20 years. It's like one
- 39:25Speaker 3: of the greatest things I've ever seen in my entire life.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Shut up. It was so exciting. You're trolling me now.
- 39:29Speaker 2: Shut up.
- 39:30Speaker 3: Dude playing a dude and whacking balls and playing stuff
- 39:34Speaker 3: with a racket and stuff.
- 39:35Speaker 2: It was great. Did you guys see what experiment the
- 39:38Speaker 2: Broncos ended yesterday that they were holding on to and
- 39:41Speaker 2: holding on to and holding on to? Drew Sanders. Yeah,
- 39:43Speaker 2: Drew Sanders got waved. I didn't even see that.
- 39:46Speaker 5: I think that was only a matter of time, right?
- 39:48Speaker 5: They waited for him. Was he waived on the injured list?
- 39:51Speaker 2: Yeah, he was waived from IR. Yeah. So it's officially done.
- 39:58Speaker 3: So is he the modern version of Jake Butt?
- 40:01Speaker 2: Yeah, kind of.
- 40:02Speaker 3: Is that the same thing we're talking about here? Did
- 40:05Speaker 3: Butt ever get into even a preseason game, though? Or
- 40:07Speaker 3: was he just hurt permanently? That poor kid, he got
- 40:11Speaker 3: busted up in his bowl game and was never, ever
- 40:13Speaker 3: the same.
- 40:13Speaker 4: Ever.
- 40:14Speaker 2: Ever. So hang on a second. Jake Butt, he did
- 40:18Speaker 2: play in eight games in his career. Oh, he did? Okay.
- 40:21Speaker 2: So he had 10 catches in his career. Obviously very forgettable.
- 40:25Speaker 5: I got to know, by the way, so much like
- 40:27Speaker 5: the PGA, I'm going to kill you.
- 40:30Speaker 4: I swear.
- 40:32Speaker 2: I am going to slay you with a stick. What's wrong?
- 40:35Speaker 2: Mosher was in the middle of a sentence. It doesn't
- 40:38Speaker 2: even matter. Yeah, but we got to get to that
- 40:40Speaker 2: end so that Mosher can do his.
- 40:42Speaker 5: And I'm actually going to ask Mosher a question because
- 40:45Speaker 5: he's an authority on this subject.
- 40:46Speaker 2: It was incredibly rude. I don't care. So the PGA's.
- 40:50Speaker 5: Talked about expanding their tournament field. They want to come
- 40:53Speaker 5: to Denver at some point, make it a stop.
- 40:55Speaker 2: Consistent.
- 40:56Speaker 5: NASCAR's thinking about doing the same. Opening up different markets.
- 40:59Speaker 5: And Denver is on their list.
- 41:01Speaker 2: Mosher, what is this about I don't know enough about engines.
- 41:05Speaker 2: I am so mad.
- 41:06Speaker 3: I am so mad.
- 41:08Speaker 4: At?
- 41:09Speaker 3: We could have had NASCAR and IndyCar here 25 years ago.
- 41:14Speaker 2: By the airport, right? Out in Aurora.
- 41:16Speaker 3: Roger Penske wanted to build a super speedway. And the
- 41:20Speaker 3: people in Aurora shot it down, even though it's way.
- 41:22Speaker 2: East of there. Yeah, get out of my town. Oh,
- 41:24Speaker 2: screw it. Yeah, but wasn't there a race at Pike's
- 41:27Speaker 2: Peak Raceway? And that's part of the problem. The people
- 41:31Speaker 2: who own Pike's Peak....
- 41:33Speaker 3: Poured money into fighting the proposition to allow.
- 41:37Speaker 2: So he was infighting, okay. Yeah, and then when you voted,
- 41:40Speaker 2: a yes meant a no with the way it was worded.
- 41:43Speaker 2: It was bizarre, but we would have had a super
- 41:45Speaker 2: speedway here. All right, Moe, do you want to set
- 41:48Speaker 2: this up? Yeah, Nelly, cut that track, please. So for
- 41:52Speaker 2: those who didn't hear it... Oh, I got another one,
- 41:54Speaker 2: by the way. Shut him off.
- 41:56Speaker 3: Shut me off.
- 41:59Speaker 2: My buddy Jim Dalton....
- 42:02Speaker 3: Lead guitar player Roger Klein of the Peacemakers, lead singer,
- 42:05Speaker 3: guitar player, along with Tony and Tyson and Graham, Railbenders.
- 42:12Speaker 3: I said, hey, do a Wednesday Night Football song.
- 42:14Speaker 2: Everybody else got a song.
- 42:15Speaker 3: He's like, I'll do something campy for you. I'll do
- 42:17Speaker 3: something funny.
- 42:17Speaker 2: I said, okay. So he said, what do you want?
- 42:20Speaker 3: I said, a little acoustic number of 30 seconds.
- 42:21Speaker 2: He goes, okay. He goes, wait, I got this old
- 42:24Speaker 2: track here, this outtake from Railbenders laying around. I'll rework that.
- 42:28Speaker 3: I'll send it to Jeremy Lawton, good buddy of the band,
- 42:31Speaker 3: Big Head Todd the Monsters, He'll mix it and send
- 42:33Speaker 3: it back to me.
- 42:33Speaker 2: I said, great.
- 42:36Speaker 3: Tonight, what do we have, Brett?
- 42:37Speaker 2: We have Wednesday Night Football right here. 6 o'clock, right
- 42:39Speaker 2: on 92.5. Give it to me hard. Give it to me.
- 42:42Speaker 2: What time? What? Be forceful with it. It's at 6 o'clock.
- 42:47Speaker 2: It's on 92.5. It's at 6 o'clock. It's on 92.5.

- 43:44Speaker 2: a good theme. Like I said, Carrie Underwood. We're right
- 43:49Speaker 2: on par. Hey, man. That's like 20. It took him
- 43:52Speaker 2: like 20 minutes. These guys are total pros.
