• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Just just out You're stalking the combine trying to, you know,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: get the nuggets to bring here on a Tuesday morning.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I'm actually sitting outside of his Starbucks and I don't
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: know if you know, but this is the most dangerous
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: place in the NFL. Last year, Orldon, Jordan Schultzen and
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Rappapork got in the fight year. So I'm just kind
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: of living dangerously right now, Yeah, I'm living dangerously not scared.
• 1:38
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that's what we're doing.
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, watch hester's there a little backup, go get them. Yeah,
• 1:45
  Speaker 6: he can protect you. I don't know if he still
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: got it or not, but that was gonna be my
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: first question for you. You kind of gave me. You
• 1:51
  Speaker 6: kind of gave us your secret sauce. When you're at
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: the Senior Bowl. It's like you like to hang out,
• 1:56
  Speaker 6: not at the bars at night, at the coffee shop,
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: so it makes sense that you are at a coffee
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: shop this morning.
• 2:03
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, this is what it is.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Like you just kind of stand around, You try to
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: pick people off and try to have conversations. It's the
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: dumbest thing in the world that, like we got to
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: come out here and talk to people that live like
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: five minutes away at home.
• 2:15
  Speaker 7: But I mean, it just kind of is what it is.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, look, this is where kind of
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: everything starts to happen. And already I mean just kind
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: of a handful of little things, like you start to
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: pick up, like I think the alive thing gets done
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: probably sooner than later.
• 2:28
  Speaker 7: It sounds like everybody's on the same page with that.
• 2:30
  Speaker 7: So that's kind of one thing that's coming out of here.
• 2:33
  Speaker 7: You know, they've talked to Cam.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I think that the Mario situation is still in the
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: same place, kind.
• 2:37
  Speaker 7: Of that wait and see. But I would bet by.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: The end of this week, I mean, you get everybody here,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: it's all the agents, all the executives, everybody's just kind
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: of standing around trying to burn enough time in a
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: day and feel productive. I mean, by the end of
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: this week, I would bet a lot of stuff is
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: well defined and we leave here kind of knowing you know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: what's going to happen next. So that's already starting to
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: take places early in the week. Everyone got here yesterday.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: But it really is just like a big football convention,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: and it is where like a lot of stuff starts
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: getting done.
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I think that's a big misconception for
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: a lot of people that think that this week's all
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: about the the soon to be NFL rookies coming in
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: and showing their stuff, which that that's the reason for
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: everybody joining together, But a lot of other business happens
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: because it's not, like you said, it's a football convention.
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: It is everybody that comes together, and most importantly, it's
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: a lot of current player invets agents come together with
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: everybody in the same room. So it's a lot of
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: other stuff, and I think that a lot of these
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: gms and agents and stuff are going there more for
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: that business rather than the seniors and soon to be rookies.
• 3:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah, no doubt about it.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I mean that's that's the biggest part now. I even
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: think on the on the evaluation aspect of it is
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: not what you're watching on TV. It's it's the it's
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: the meetings, it's talking to them, it's finding.
• 3:54
  Speaker 7: Out what they're about.
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: The medical part of it's a huge thing too. But
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: usually these things in your bull is the same way.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Like it's a lot it's a lot more about the
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes than what's actually out there.
• 4:06
  Speaker 7: You know, it's gonna be it's going to be interesting.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think there's a handful of the things
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: that still need to come together that that are going
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: to define their season.
• 4:13
  Speaker 7: I don't know that they're going to bend.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Over backward for for some of these older players or
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: that though, Like I really do feel like this team
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: feels like it's on a path to just its next chapter,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: and I think they want to keep the Mario I
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: think they want to keep cam but you know, already
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: just you know, off a kicking the tires on a
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: couple of things. Like I don't think they're gonna they're
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: gonna go crazy, you know, for for anyone.
• 4:35
  Speaker 7: I think they do w't want to find those guys
• 4:37
  Speaker 7: who are more next.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: They want to find the veteran player that that you know,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: hasn't necessarily gotten paid yet. Like I think that that's
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: where they're thinking right now. Doors open for everyone, but
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to compete for it. And also,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: by the way, there was this report that came out
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: that they got to spend fifty million dollars or seventy
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: million dollars to raise their floor because they have the
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: three year thing.
• 4:59
  Speaker 7: And if anybody's all that, like, it's kind of.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: A false flag because any money they spend right now
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: is going to count against that. So if you extend
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: chrys Olave and you give them a fifty million dollars
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: signing bonus, there's fifty million dollars off the seventy that
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: you got to spend.
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: So it isn't it isn't.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: A precursor to some like free agency frenzy, like their
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: natural way of doing business is going to take care
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: of what they have to do to raise that three
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: year level, and uh, they're going to hit that threshold
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: just doing business they want to do. So, yeah, they're
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: gonna spend, they're gonna be aggressive, but it isn't going
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: to be like they got to spend seventy million dollars
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: to meet this number.
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: Like that.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: The way that information came out, you know, for anyone
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: that that's why I kind of drove the conversation on
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: social for a few days like that. The way that
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: came out was a dross misrepresentational where things exist.
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: Interesting, Yeah, I like I was, I was listening. I'm
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: not like super familiar with like the cappit that you're
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: talking about. But if anybody can control the cap situation,
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: I believe in the New York Yeah, New Orleans Saints
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: they can handle that. They're masters of it.
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: So so just like the background on that, So there's
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: a three year threshold that you have to be at,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: you got to say you gotta have there's like a
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: floor of spending that you have to be at. Cash
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: going out new cashit new players, So like Derek Carr Leeds,
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: so you aren't paying out that money kind of screws
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: up your number. They haven't really brought in a lot
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: of pricey people the last couple of years, so their
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: actual like new cash spending wasn't where it was supposed
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: to be.
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: There's like five teams that got to spend to.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Get there, and it's a formula over three years, so
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: like they literally have up until the day before the
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: league year next year to catch up on this. So
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: you extend Chris Olave, you extend Chase Young, you sign
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: a couple of free agents, and the seventy million dollars
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: they need to have to be at that three year
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: threshold will hit. But our report came out that was like,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: well the Saints.
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: And oh well we'll try to get him back on
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: right there. But that was that's an interesting It was
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: just just a hey, Nick, I don't know if you
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: can hear us, but we are. You're kind of cutting
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: out a little bit. I think the coffee shop you
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: were getting some really nice internet. Then you might have
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: walked away from the coffee shop. Hey just call me,
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: all right, sounds good.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: It's an in.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: I would call him like I did not know anything
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: about this whole three year spending.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: So there's a lot of hoops.
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: You gotta jump through, a lot, a lot of things
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: you gotta do as obviously when you're balancing salary cap.
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: But apparently the nor Leans Saints just haven't spent that
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: Derek car situation went against that, so they got a
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: lot of money to have to spend. But Nick is
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: saying that we have until the beginning of next the
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: start of next, so we got over a year to
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: spend that money, and certainly chrysal Lave is going to
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: it's going to work against work towards that number. We
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: got them on, all right, we got nickd We got
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: Nick back?
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: Nick? What's up? You there?
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah, ok there, Look you look so much better in
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: video than this picture. I gotta tell you, it didn't
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: even look like you.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: That's what I was telling you. Guys have been doing
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: me dirty for for years.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: For years.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: I got to send a new pictures could if you could.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: We'll pay for the hit shots if you want them.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: I don't know who grabbed it, but it just makes
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: me look like such an asshole man, like I hate it.
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: I hate it, so I love it.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: Okay, So let's talk about the combine a little bit.
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: I saw like I saw like a mock draft from
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: Kuyper that came out, and you know, take that with
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: a grain of salt however you want to. Uh, he
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: has the Saints takeing mackay Lemon from USC wide receiver?
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: Now, certainly not.
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: I think we all we talked about this yesterday, like
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: we would love to see the Saints go wide receiver.
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: I would love to see them get really young on
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: the offensive side of the ball, go like the Green
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: Bay Packer route.
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: We just changed your picture. Holy cow, it might actually
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: be like more of a this is his Twitter profile pig.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: So is that turtleneck?
• 9:01
  Speaker 8: Why you just look like that?
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: Anyway you'll see it.
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, let's talk about I would love to see like
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: the I would love to see them get young at
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: the wide receiver and very versatile and diverse, like the
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: like the Packers kind of look where they got four
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: or five just young guys, No, nobody that's like the
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: super number one. They just got to got really productive guys.
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: So do you still see them? What are your eyes
• 9:26
  Speaker 6: going to be on the combine from the wide receiver?
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: And how do you like the Kuyper mock draft of
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: mackay Lemon.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: I'm mc kay fan. Yeah, I mean he's interesting, like
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: when you kind of do like the rewatchers of those
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: guys I think like Jordan Tyson Connell Tay, like you
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: see it, you watch like six plays and you're like, yeah,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: that that guy's great, Like I see what you gotta do.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I think m Kyle Lemon like it's kind of one
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: of them people that like you really got to watch
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: and uh it's like, you know, if you watch them
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: for like seven minutes, by the end of that seven minutes,
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: like you're gonna be like, man, this guy like he's
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: a beast. Like he's smaller obviously, but really strong player,
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: really right after the catch, great hands. Makes a lot
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: of guys mistackles all that stuff. So I'm a fan.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: I like him quite a bit. I think he would
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: fit well with what they have. Like if you're if
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: you're kind of drawing it out a little bit, like, uh,
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: a lot is kind of you do everything great route
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: runner Bailey gives you that can test to catch and
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: then you know. I feel like Makatt would be that
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: guy that gives you the mix underneath the just the
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: strong hands, the run after touch ability. He's kind of
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: like thinking Willie Sneeth a little bit, but like putting
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: the Corvette injinetum, like just he's the uh, he's just
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: he's just like a really really good player. I like
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: him quite a bit. I do think though, like I
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: wonder if you can get better value of like forty two,
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: like if you do something different at eight. Like I
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: feel like there's just like a lot of receivers that
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: are going to be there at forty two, and you know,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know, Like I just feel like if you
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: allocate your resources, you know, I I think taking a
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: receiver at eight would be will be a great value,
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: but I just think it'd be maybe possibly better. Like
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: there's just one two punches you kind of go through
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: and do like the Steven Round mock draft, Like I
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: don't know if like Gruden, Bayne or Downs is gonna
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: fall that far, but like I don't know, you can
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: get one of them and then and then hit and
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: get Chris Bell, Elijah Surratt. You know, there's just a
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: ton of guys that that I think you could fit
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: on a little bit later in the draft and check
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: two boxes. But I'm a Mac fan, Like out of
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: the three, I facilitate a little bit when you consider
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: health and everything, it kind of makes Tyson a little
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: bit a little bit scary. But I think I think
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: his his highlights, his fate, his his feeling is incredibly high.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: He's probably my favorite one out of them. But like
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: if I'm actually building the team, uh, you can make
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: you can make a strong case for m Kyle lemon
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: At that's fuck yeah.
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: Nick Lamour.
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: I think about this draft for the for the Saints,
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: and the more I'm thinking about like which players where
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: they fit and looking at the draft glaves, like you said,
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: there's it's pretty deep at route like you had good receivers.
• 11:56
  Speaker 6: There's going to be guys available in the second, third
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: round and you look get another position to need the
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: edge rusher position. It's the same thing with that. There
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: is going to be really good players you can get
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: in the second and third round at edge like this,
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: to me, their position is so primed in my opinion
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: to trade back. Do you think that that is anywhere?
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: I'll Mickey Limis's radar get get you an extra second
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: round pick, move down in the first round, take your
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: wide receiver there or an edge there, whatever you want
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: to do, and then stack a couple of those positions
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: together in the second third round.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, I would love it if they did it,
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: especially in this draft, because like it's just there isn't
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: there isn't a lot. I like, gotta have a players
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: like and I even think that the guys that you're
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: that feel like the best players in this draft, like
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: you're compromising with them a little bit. Like Ruben Bay
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: doesn't have the prototypical line, so like you're kind of
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: you're taking a little bit of a chance there. But
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: you know, I think he's going to be a great player.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: You know, Rvel Reeves is kind of more of an
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: idea than a than a real thing. You know, Austin
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: at Ohio State, great great highlights that I mean, he's
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: kind of new to play in the edge and he
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: doesn't have like a strong track record there and there's
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: a lot of stuff that kind of has to come together.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Or Jeremiah Love like, yeah, great player, But like do
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: you want to be drafting a running back in the
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: top five, top ten? Like typically no, you don't. Maybe
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: in this class you do. Down's another one, like it's safety.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: So this is a draft where like if you can
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: move back, if somebody wants to move up, like, I
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: would love it because I think it's better in the
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: in the depths, and I don't know that that there's
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of gotta have a players. You know.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: The sweet spot for doing that is it one of
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: those guys faults downs is sitting there, Bang sitting there,
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Jeremiah Love sitting there. You decide you don't want them,
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: Maybe somebody comes up and gets something and you can
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: drop back a few spots and yeah, double dip, get
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: another pick. Because there are just so many needs, like
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: go through them.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Like you are.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: You probably aren't drafting the tackle. Probably an't drafting a quarterback.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: You can literally take any other position and it's justifiable
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: and almost it's almost a need right like guard center,
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: Like even your center, you've got a great turner, you
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: miss his ten games a year. You can draft the
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: center anywhere in this draft, it would be it'd be fine.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Anyone on the defensive line you need, you need, you
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: need the tons of tackles. You need a linebackers to
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: Mario League a lot day. Taylor's probably leading. You need
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: a cornerback. You can definitely add a stixty the next
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: like and I could make a case for taking any
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: one of those positions, like anywhere. I think you need
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: guys everywhere, So yeah, more picks allows you to address
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: more stuff, so i'd before it for sure you.
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: Got any your eyes on any of the running backs
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: outside of Jordan Love, Like you know, I think we
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: can all agree on that. Probably not the pick we
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: want to see early in the first round, but later
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: in the draft certainly. I think that is a position
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: to fill in a position. Need to get your eyeballs
• 14:45
  Speaker 6: on anybody.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: I'm a Jeremiah Love guy, but like in this draft,
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: like specifically to this draft because laid I'm mugging at
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: the guys. I'm like, I don't know, Like there's other
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: positions that I'd probably rather take in a normal draft.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: If you're telling me that it's that is even great
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: or even close, Like I'm probably taking he might be
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: the best player in this draft. And there are a
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: kind of guys but theoretically seton like I would rather
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: them address the team somewhere else with the player of
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: equivalent value. Yeah, I mean, I guess like Ice, like
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: the Notre Dame sidekick, Like he's another one. I like,
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know, man, Like it's it's it's a tough
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: running back draft. Last year it was like, really deep,
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: I don't think there's a ton of games rangers here.
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: You don't forced to pick at that position though, like
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: you know, being clear on that l at eight, you
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: do not force it, you know, I don't think you
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: want to take a running back there. It's just like
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: he's the number one guy on your board. Now, I
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: would be surprised to he's number one on their board.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: I would bet they have a few other guys at him,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: and I would bet they have other options there. I'm
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: starting to feel more like it's not going to be
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: him than it is going to be him at that spot.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: So we'll kind of see how we'll say, yeah, that's
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: probably the spot where I'm going to add somebody may
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: be in free agency and address it there. And if
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: if you feel like you got to take love, you
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: can still take them, like kind of like the year
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: with Alvin, they signed Peterson a free agency, they drafted Alvin.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: Alvin ended up being better. Peterson's gone, Like that could
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: be a fine situation. So even if you don't pick
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: him one to day, like you can sign someone and
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: the idea be like, yeah, we want to address this position,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: but we don't have to win the draft. You know,
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of ways to go at it, but
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: I'm with you, like I would rather not be a
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: running back there, but this specific one. You can tell me.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: I'm doing it today and I can make a strong
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: case for it. I did it last week when you
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: guys were out, like a ten minute ran on it,
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: like there's a lot of data that that shows that,
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: like he's a very very special prospect. But do you
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: tell me I can have Caleb Donald, Druden Bayn or
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: a Love. I probably go with one or the other two.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: Gotcha?
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: Now, did you make some like some national Did you
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: get a little popular this week on the social media?
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: Do you? Did you release an app that I see?
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it like a little cap calculator. The
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: guy that's CBA compliant you can do all this stuff.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: I don't. I don't really know what happened. I just
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: kind of snapped and figured something out, and uh, by
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: the end of it, I had the most nerdy app
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: ever ever made, uh put together as Saints specific caps
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: calculator that you know, it's just gets into the real
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: gritty details and you know, look, it's cool though, like
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: the cap here has been like I'm two years late
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: on this, Puy, because like the cap was a huge
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: issue before and it's not now. But it's just kind
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: of a culmination of like ten years as how, like
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: putting stuff in the excelf stad cheets and trying to
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: figure it out, and like the technology is finally there
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: to where you can kind of automate some things, and
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: I don't know how they started playing around with it
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: and by the end I had something that worked pretty well.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, that I saw.
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: That Rappaport had like reposted or something like that. So
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: good for you, man. If you're if you're a super
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: want a nerd out on some new Orance Saints Captain,
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: check out Underhill's page and his new app, go check
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: it out.

  Speaker 6: off season. New league year opens up, I believe March

  Speaker 6: do all the right things, make all the right decisions.

  Speaker 6: white board walking out. I didn't really know what was
• 22:10
  Speaker 6: going on. Looked like baseball players' names, but little play
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: on words. And so people are coming up with names
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: of baseball players but making fat jokes. Is that what
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: we're kind of doing?
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: Sort of yeah, sort of body shaming.
• 22:24
  Speaker 6: Body shaming, but not body shame. We're just trying to
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: make play on words here.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: And I don't how did this whole thing start. So
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: I don't know how to give away too much information.
• 22:36
  Speaker 6: I don't know if this is one of those things
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: like fight club.
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think it's. I don't think it's like
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: fight club.
• 22:41
  Speaker 9: So you know, we love a big body goud on
• 22:44
  Speaker 9: the baseball field, and our guy, Zach Yorke has become
• 22:47
  Speaker 9: a fan favorite. First of all, I have never heard
• 22:51
  Speaker 9: a guy like, yes, he hit a home run his
• 22:54
  Speaker 9: first in bat very poetic. Right the second he stepped
• 22:58
  Speaker 9: foot in the box was like the loudest I've heard
• 23:01
  Speaker 9: it this year.
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: I hadn't even taken a swing yet. It just steps
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: in like what was.
• 23:04
  Speaker 8: That Grand Canyon University the year before, by the way.
• 23:07
  Speaker 9: And everybody knows about him already, Like steps into the
• 23:10
  Speaker 9: batter's box game one whole crowd went insane. But yeah,
• 23:14
  Speaker 9: play on words, you know, like like David Ortiz was
• 23:16
  Speaker 9: big poppy. I've seen people try to come up with
• 23:18
  Speaker 9: nicknames for for Zach York. So that's how the board
• 23:21
  Speaker 9: kind of started.
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: Perfect. So we had some examples. I came up with
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: Nolan Fryan. Nolan Fryan's great. Somebody said, what would you
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: just say?
• 23:37
  Speaker 9: Snacks Snabody say that over the over the weekend.
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: It's great.
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: That might be one of my faves.
• 23:45
  Speaker 9: Got a lot of them out there. There's I can't
• 23:47
  Speaker 9: remember off the top of my head. There's about ten
• 23:49
  Speaker 9: or twelve on that board.
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: Kyle Schwarma, Kyle Swarm.
• 23:55
  Speaker 9: That was Cade and then when we talked about it,
• 23:58
  Speaker 9: Kaid goes, thanks, it's Greek.

• 24:15
  Speaker 6: that you know, keep you going. I keep you pushing forward,
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: probably especially.
• 24:19
  Speaker 8: If you odds he hits a home run tonight, Yeah,
• 24:23
  Speaker 8: pretty high.
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Always because of them. Yeah, because of the tummy.
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: Those little things get a couple of giggles here and there,
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: a couple of laughs in the office in good fun
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: and good fun. That's how I got my nickname because
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: I was getting package sent to Dragon. This was when
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: when I was in Seattle, right, Seattle was in the
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: best moment in my football career.
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: But it's the little things in life.
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: Every time I got a package, I giggled a little
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: bit and that kept me going.
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: So that's all the nickname. So did you have did
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: you have like a sports in nickname growing up?
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: Not one.
• 24:55
  Speaker 9: We we ain't going quad got here. I'm not talking
• 24:57
  Speaker 9: like give that. No, not really called me sunbonnet. I
• 25:02
  Speaker 9: don't know if that would translate.
• 25:03
  Speaker 8: Yell.
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: She would yell that at the baseball games. Yeah, mm hmm.
• 25:08
  Speaker 8: They called my brother met Yeah.
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: We had a bit of guy.
• 25:13
  Speaker 9: So we had we had a guy on our team
• 25:16
  Speaker 9: when they called him meat because he was probably I
• 25:19
  Speaker 9: mean he was our nose guard, but he was probably
• 25:21
  Speaker 9: five to nine but thick boy, and they called.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: Him meat because of that.
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: Nice always like an ironic nickname, like a big guy
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: you call him tiny, yeah, small, something like that.
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: It was always made me laugh. Or a really small
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: guy called big Country.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: We had a guy called big Country Big Countries.
• 25:41
  Speaker 9: Really, I always appreciate my uh, a freshman year QB coach,
• 25:46
  Speaker 9: because he gave me a nickname that was way too
• 25:48
  Speaker 9: cool for me at the time. I was lefty, the
• 25:52
  Speaker 9: only left a QB on the team, and he was
• 25:54
  Speaker 9: a big Kinny Stabler fan, so he just started yelling
• 25:57
  Speaker 9: snake at practice.
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: That nickname hill on for about two years.
• 26:02
  Speaker 9: So I was I was a snake snake, which is
• 26:04
  Speaker 9: a cool nickname, and again it was way too cool
• 26:06
  Speaker 9: for me. It was way too cool. I think that
• 26:09
  Speaker 9: was the because he liked Kenny Stablers. So that was
• 26:13
  Speaker 9: that was my nickname for about two two and a
• 26:14
  Speaker 9: half years really until my senior year.
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: What movie is that from? I think I think I
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: think the quote is I think I know the snakes
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: or I've heard of the Snake's Home on Snakes. Oh,
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: we had a big guy on one of my teams.
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: His nickname was Pangaea.
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that one. That one was very good.
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: I don't know if it's appropriate anymore, but you know,
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: I can't change the past.
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: That's what it was.
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: I don't know if people mean, I don't know. Yeah,
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: softies just a nickname.
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: It's just a nickname.
• 26:49
  Speaker 8: Since we're like people that are sensitive about that would
• 26:54
  Speaker 8: not survive in Mexican culture because they take what you
• 26:56
  Speaker 8: are most insecure about and make it your nickname.
• 26:59

• 34:45
  Speaker 6: Did Flynn know hester travel this much? When he agreed

• 34:51
  Speaker 8: Open, It's okay, we'll just play some Duran Duran.

  Speaker 9: It's a brand new This is totally the first time
• 34:57
  Speaker 9: Alongers played it.
• 34:59
  Speaker 8: I don't do it every time.
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's okay. I mean the show is basically flawless
• 35:03
  Speaker 5: at that point. Yeah, look, what help will happen?
• 35:06
  Speaker 11: Now?
• 35:06
  Speaker 8: I have one for dev We never play it.
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: A gotcha, but I do like the A to B
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: mail bag open?
• 35:11
  Speaker 8: You want me to play it?
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Good?
• 35:14
  Speaker 11: I help this special delivery for the bench.
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: And look it is marked most urgent writing to you
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: the Internet?
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: What the is the internet?
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: All right? Hashtag? Go to the Meilbank. I'll read it again.
• 35:33
  Speaker 6: Did Flynn know Hester traveled this much when he agreed
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: to be a co host?
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: Simple answer, hel No.
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: I told him he actually wasn't allowed to travel, take
• 35:44
  Speaker 6: vacation days, take off for being sick. I told him
• 35:47
  Speaker 6: he was not allowed to I said, hey, Jake, if
• 35:50
  Speaker 6: you ever miss We're I'm just gonna tell him to
• 35:52
  Speaker 6: play national.
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: I'm not doing it. There's no way.
• 35:54
  Speaker 6: But you know what, now, thank god I got a
• 35:57
  Speaker 6: launder and Taylor would not be able to do it
• 36:00
  Speaker 6: without them.
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: I could not sit here and talk to a.
• 36:02
  Speaker 6: Microphone at a TV screen by myself for three hours.
• 36:07
  Speaker 6: Nobody would want to listen to that. It'd be awful
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: for one. But when it's a tripod, I feel like
• 36:13
  Speaker 6: we feel our way through it.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: Maybe it's not as planned out as some other shows,
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: but this show isn't that.
• 36:19
  Speaker 8: It's never been that.
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: It's never been that, even before you joined.
• 36:22
  Speaker 8: I don't know like what people expect when they're tuning
• 36:25
  Speaker 8: in off the bench. It's been the same show for years.
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: Yes, we are not a let's let's just say, we're
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: not a sports show. We don't chase the headlines, we
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: don't chase the breaking news. We are sports entertainment.
• 36:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, we're vie. I don't know for entertaining,
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: but that's the genre you would put us in, certainly,
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: I think entertaining. So that was a long answer to Hayle.
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: No, I didn't know Jake was going to be gone
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: this long, but this is his busy time of year
• 36:50
  Speaker 6: towards he certainly endo football season with the playoffs and
• 36:54
  Speaker 6: all that good stuff, and the combine thing is new
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: for him, so good for him.
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: Hopefully he crushes it.
• 37:00
  Speaker 8: Yeah, to be fair, that wasn't like a planned.
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: Yep, hmm. Did y'all see any other questions on here, guys?
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: Yeh t B Millbag.
• 37:09
  Speaker 9: Will the US hockey team bring beers to the State
• 37:12
  Speaker 9: of the Union tonight? They better I was just bragging
• 37:15
  Speaker 9: saying this might be my favorite team of all time. Yep,
• 37:17
  Speaker 9: you're not cracking a couple of cold ones there at
• 37:19
  Speaker 9: the State of the Union, then what are we really doing?
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: Are you even in the American hockey team?
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: I'm going to say no, they're not going to bring beers.
• 37:26
  Speaker 6: I think that'd be un American. You know why, I
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: think the White House should provide them with the beers
• 37:31
  Speaker 6: again they get there. I think that's because we talked
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: about they should never have to buy beers again.
• 37:37
  Speaker 5: Now it's gonna happen.
• 37:38
  Speaker 6: People are gonna they're going to buy their own beers.
• 37:41
  Speaker 6: Let's not get it twisted here. People are gonna lose
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: the emotional connection. But we're riding on a high right now,
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: a USA high.
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: And I think.
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: Trump's got to bring it up at least twice in
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: a speech, right, got.
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: To bring it up. Bring it up at the beginning
• 37:55
  Speaker 5: for sure. For sure.
• 37:56
  Speaker 8: It just feels like a weird kind of thing to
• 37:59
  Speaker 8: and bite them to because it's the state of the
• 38:02
  Speaker 8: Union and I'm pretty sure all the like Epstein victims
• 38:05
  Speaker 8: are going to be there, So that feels like a
• 38:07
  Speaker 8: little I mean, I'm not against it, but it just
• 38:09
  Speaker 8: feels a little well to.
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: Say, the union might go all over the place, might
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: be all over the place. Serve them. If you got
• 38:15
  Speaker 6: to put in a champagne flute, that's fine, whatever it is.
• 38:20
  Speaker 8: Be Miller high Life in the champagne flute.
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: Champagn's pretty fancy. So looking forward to that, man, I'm excited.
• 38:30
  Speaker 6: I'm I'm excited that for just the country right now,
• 38:33
  Speaker 6: how excited and brought together everybody is.
• 38:36
  Speaker 5: That's what sports does, which just fantastic. Man.
• 38:42
  Speaker 6: I gotta tell you, the chat's been on a heater
• 38:45
  Speaker 6: today now, like when Jacob's out here, I'll probably look
• 38:48
  Speaker 6: at it the least amount because I'm trying to like
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: focus on, you know, whatever whatever do in the next segment,
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: I believe it or not. I do actually kind of
• 38:56
  Speaker 6: focus on that a little bit. But it's been on
• 38:59
  Speaker 6: a heat today. Always get nervous though, Like when I'm
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: doing a live read or talking about something, and y'all
• 39:06
  Speaker 6: too are laughing over there.
• 39:08
  Speaker 5: I'm like what I just say?
• 39:12
  Speaker 9: Sometimes it's not you, it's us. In that time would
• 39:15
  Speaker 9: have been one of those times.
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, go south. Here we go. As I go to
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: the mailbag.
• 39:20
  Speaker 6: On my highest website, a five pack a pure is
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: sold out, but a fifty pack is available. You just
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: opened a fifty pack and make ten five packs. It
• 39:28
  Speaker 6: was just by the fifty.
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: That's all we gotta say. The problem.
• 39:32
  Speaker 6: We do have a couple sold items. This is the
• 39:34
  Speaker 6: time of year where we do kind of run out
• 39:35
  Speaker 6: of packaging. And I ordered it all at one time.
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: So in the next you know, a little bit, I'd
• 39:40
  Speaker 6: say about a month and a half, everything should be
• 39:42
  Speaker 6: back in stock. It's just kind of the ebbs and
• 39:44
  Speaker 6: flows of business. Got to watch the cash flow. People
• 39:48
  Speaker 6: gotta watch that inventory. But being sold out is a
• 39:51
  Speaker 6: good thing. Yeah, always a good thing.
• 39:55
  Speaker 5: M all right? Anybody else anything?
• 40:03
  Speaker 8: Are we gonna miss the ghosts in the buildings when
• 40:05
  Speaker 8: we move buildings? And yeah, I am.
• 40:08
  Speaker 5: Became friends with two of them. What are their names?
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: Do they haven't I don't know, We're not on the
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: first name basis or anything.

  Speaker 5: Yet no one has like a nickname, like a fat

  Speaker 8: Kansas lost the entire series. They're two and five on

• 44:03
  Speaker 8: play or yeah, Parker Morgan, LS you only let him
• 44:06
  Speaker 8: pitch for a third of an inning because they took
• 44:09
  Speaker 8: him for four hits and three runs immediately only one strikeout.
• 44:13
  Speaker 8: So probably gonna see him again. He's tends to be
• 44:16
  Speaker 8: their mid week starter. But I also didn't look at
• 44:18
  Speaker 8: who pitched for them against Kansas. So that's just what

• 44:37
  Speaker 8: him after Parker Morgan pitched last season. But yeah, probably

  Speaker 8: see the bats Keith the bats Hot. Probably see Cooper
• 44:45
  Speaker 8: Williams on the mound for US today or Zach Cowen.
