Speaker 1: We got Lebron James going to Philly, we got Tony
0:37
Speaker 1: Romo getting pulled over, just blasted. So we'll dive into
0:44
Speaker 1: it all and the plan will be podcasts all week. Obviously,
0:47
Speaker 1: football is really gonna ramp up here. Practice is going
0:50
Speaker 1: on probably by mid to the end of the week.

0:57
Speaker 1: But you guys know the drill. Subscribe to Colin, if
1:00

1:02
Speaker 1: I appreciate all you guys that have If you want
1:04

Speaker 1: check that out as well. And uh and yeah, we're
1:10
Speaker 1: just we'll have we'll definitely have some other content that
1:13
Speaker 1: doesn't make it on the podcast on the YouTube channel
1:15
Speaker 1: this week, so you can check that out Three and
1:17
Speaker 1: Out YouTube channel and Uh, I guess we just got
1:21
Speaker 1: to start with the uh, pretty crazy story out of
1:24
Speaker 1: San Francisco, really Santa Clara slash Palo Alto. Kyle Shanahan
1:29
Speaker 1: is officially in the concussion protocol. Many of you, most
1:33
Speaker 1: of you, I would imagine all of you have seen
1:35
Speaker 1: the story. You know, the Kyle Shanahan was in a
1:38
Speaker 1: bad car accident within the last week or so, awful concussion,
1:43
Speaker 1: forty stitches, broken nose, was out at practice on Sunday,
1:48
Speaker 1: though he's not officially right now the head coach of
1:51
Speaker 1: the team, given that he's not able to do his
1:53
Speaker 1: duties because of the concussion. And as John Lynch said
1:57
Speaker 1: in a press conference that if you just look around
2:00
Speaker 1: the league, every head coach has a first press conference
2:04
Speaker 1: when the veterans arrive. It's like officially the start of
2:07
Speaker 1: training camp. And you kind of tell who's on pup,
2:11
Speaker 1: what guys are injured, maybe some guys are in trouble,
2:13
Speaker 1: maybe just discuss some plans of a quarterback back whatever. Right,
2:17
Speaker 1: it's just kind of an intro press conference. Well, Kyle
2:19
Speaker 1: couldn't give it, John Lynch had do, and by the
2:22
Speaker 1: middle of it he's being asked, is Kyle going to
2:25
Speaker 1: be ready for Australia here in forty plus days. And
2:29
Speaker 1: he said, by no means are we planning on that
2:32
Speaker 1: being an issue. But he couldn't concretely, you know, in
2:36
Speaker 1: you know, concretely say that he will be back right,
2:40
Speaker 1: You don't You never know that with a concussion, especially
2:43
Speaker 1: you know today he was out of practice with sunglasses.
2:46
Speaker 1: Some of my boots on the ground said, you know,
2:49
Speaker 1: it definitely looked like the swelling on his face subsided
2:51
Speaker 1: a little bit. But you know, he's got a cast
2:54
Speaker 1: or a splint on his arm where he broke. And
2:57
Speaker 1: the concussion thing is no joke for a that is
3:00
Speaker 1: literally you know, the majority of it is spent looking
3:04
Speaker 1: at a screen. So typically it's about no lights being
3:09
Speaker 1: in dark rooms to get over this concussion. And who
3:13
Speaker 1: knows the details. I'm sure you know, we got a
3:16
Speaker 1: lot of journals getting mad about journalism that is dying.
3:20
Speaker 1: This is a great opportunity for anyone you know in
3:24
Speaker 1: Northern California that wants to get dig in on what
3:27
Speaker 1: happened some of the details, because that is a story
3:31
Speaker 1: where people will click on. I promise you that myself included.
3:35
Speaker 1: But as the story comes out, we'll learn more, but
3:38
Speaker 1: clearly he got into a very very high speed car
3:41
Speaker 1: accident to get those type injuries in his tesla. And
3:45
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this this weekend because Chris Forrester,
3:49
Speaker 1: who some of you may know as the guy that
3:52
Speaker 1: once got caught doing cocaine in Miami, has been a
3:57
Speaker 1: Kyle confidant for a long time. He's been the NFL
4:00
Speaker 1: for thirty five years. By all accounts, he's one of
4:02
Speaker 1: the best offensive line coach in the league. And he,
4:06
Speaker 1: you know, gave Kyle Shanahan's prest conference today because he's
4:09
Speaker 1: the acting interim head coach and kind of discussed like
4:13
Speaker 1: I don't have many friends. I don't not only consider
4:15
Speaker 1: Kyle a friend. Kyle was there for me when no
4:18
Speaker 1: one would touch me and change the course of my
4:20
Speaker 1: life when it looked like my career might be over.
4:23
Speaker 1: So this organization put me on a path that I
4:26
Speaker 1: was kind of toxic around the league after that situation
4:29
Speaker 1: with a stripper in the blow and which you know
4:33
Speaker 1: is funny now looking, but at the time it went God.
4:36
Speaker 1: It's why you can never make statements like this guy
4:39
Speaker 1: will never get another opportunity. You never know, and if
4:42
Speaker 1: you are talented, typically you get more and more opportunities,
4:45
Speaker 1: and clearly Chris Forrester is and has overcame a lot
4:48
Speaker 1: in his life by all accounts, But there aren't many
4:51
Speaker 1: teams in the league. Like to me, the biggest brand
4:54
Speaker 1: in the league over the last six or seven years,
4:56
Speaker 1: based on vibes and definitely based on the tech television ratings,
5:00
Speaker 1: has been the Kansas City Chiefs. Andy Reid is going
5:03
Speaker 1: to go down as I don't know, top five coach
5:06
Speaker 1: of all time, and depending on how much longer he
5:09
Speaker 1: coaches and what he accomplishes, he could get near the
5:12
Speaker 1: top of that list. But when you think about the
5:15
Speaker 1: Kansaity Chiefs, I do think the first person you think
5:18
Speaker 1: about is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time
5:21
Speaker 1: in Patrick Mahimes. Their tight end is currently dating what
5:24
Speaker 1: many consider the most famous woman in America. It's hard
5:27
Speaker 1: for me to really speak about her reach globally, but
5:30
Speaker 1: it's clear she's pretty big. She's definitely one of the
5:33
Speaker 1: biggest celebrities in recent memory. And when I think about
5:37
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, and I would put the Rams
5:40
Speaker 1: under this umbrella as well. Their coaches are kind of
5:43
Speaker 1: the stars of the team and They both have had
5:45
Speaker 1: a lot of star power. They have had a lot
5:47
Speaker 1: of famous future Hall of Famers, current Hall of Famers,
5:50
Speaker 1: name recognition when it comes to football players. Yet, Sean
5:54
Speaker 1: McVeigh and specifically Kyle Shanahan are kind of the guy
5:58
Speaker 1: that you could easily play on every single game they
6:01
Speaker 1: play in, specifically the primetime games. Them is the promotional
6:05
Speaker 1: face against another player, Like if the forty nine ers
6:08
Speaker 1: are playing the Bills, you could have Josh Allen, you
6:10
Speaker 1: could easily have Kyle Shannan. I know they usually put
6:14
Speaker 1: George Kittle or Nick Bosa, Fred Warner, but I don't
6:16
Speaker 1: think anyone would blink if Kyle was up there. Same
6:18
Speaker 1: thing with Sean McVay. And anytime you lose your CEO.
6:24
Speaker 1: This is not like your boy just got a Tesla
6:27
Speaker 1: was not officially here yet, but I ordered one. It's
6:30
Speaker 1: got to be the easiest process. I mean, it takes
6:32
Speaker 1: ten minutes to have the exact one you want. Basically
6:36
Speaker 1: my car. I got this letter in the mail about
6:39
Speaker 1: a potential recall. I was like, what am I doing?
6:42
Speaker 1: This thing is fifteen years old. I didn't even think
6:45
Speaker 1: it was worth a penny. I took it to CarMax
6:47
Speaker 1: and Tesla. I was like, yeah, they both said it
6:49
Speaker 1: was worth about sixty five hundred dollars, which blows my mind.
6:53
Speaker 1: But I was like, you know, it's just time and
6:55
Speaker 1: you basically get it for zero percent interest. So I
6:58
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, this is a good deal. I just
6:59
Speaker 1: it's essentially a golf car for me to drive around town.
7:02
Speaker 1: I don't even drive that much, but it didn't make
7:04
Speaker 1: sense for me to get some SUV when my wife
7:07
Speaker 1: already has one. So I was like, you know what,
7:09
Speaker 1: let's let's pull the trigger. Whether that process went well,
7:15
Speaker 1: something happens to me or anyone else making a purchase
7:19
Speaker 1: their CEO Elon Musk has zero to do with any
7:21
Speaker 1: of it. It is a self running operation at this point.
7:25
Speaker 1: It truly is incredible having, you know, traded in my
7:29
Speaker 1: wife's card to get her something else. When we had
7:31
Speaker 1: jack like just a old school vehicle, you know, like
7:35
Speaker 1: a normal dealership, and the process that takes, I mean
7:38
Speaker 1: we were there for fucking ever. It was such a
7:41
Speaker 1: pain and the car was literally there to this process
7:45
Speaker 1: couldn't have been any easier. It's like, h you guys
7:48
Speaker 1: need to figure something out, because these guys are way
7:50
Speaker 1: ahead of you technologically, which makes sense. I mean, Tesla's
7:52
Speaker 1: much more of a technological company than you would say,
7:56
Speaker 1: like Chevrolet would be. But Elon has nothing to do
7:59
Speaker 1: with it. It doesn't matter. Just like if Jamie Diamond
8:02
Speaker 1: goes on vacation for a month, or you pick said
8:05
Speaker 1: CEO of any major corporation, they don't skip a beat. Obviously,
8:09
Speaker 1: if a big decision needs to be made on like
8:11
Speaker 1: a product, the new guy at Apple is gonna get
8:14
Speaker 1: a phone call, right But overall, on a day to
8:17
Speaker 1: day basis going into the Apple store or having an
8:19
Speaker 1: issue with your computer, he doesn't need to do anything.
8:22
Speaker 1: That's not really how football works. A lot of football
8:25
Speaker 1: coaches aren't just in tune with the roster. It's like
8:27
Speaker 1: what are we feeding the guys, what's the temperature in
8:30
Speaker 1: the training room? What are open times to our weight room?
8:34
Speaker 1: They have their hands on everything. Now, there is a
8:36
Speaker 1: major difference of a fortune five hundred company and a
8:39
Speaker 1: football team. You do have way less people working under you.
8:43
Speaker 1: But that being said, it has a major, major impact.
8:47
Speaker 1: And I was listening to a story I was I mean,
8:50
Speaker 1: you talk about this is a dad like three or
8:53
Speaker 1: four days there is nothing on television. So I was
8:56
Speaker 1: watching this video Shannon Sharp. He got all the guys
9:00
Speaker 1: or you know, probably seven or eight of the guys
9:03
Speaker 1: from the ninety six, ninety seven, ninety eight Broncos like Terrell, Davis, Romanowski,
9:07
Speaker 1: Steve Atwater, Christian McCaffrey's dad, Ed Rod Smith. They had
9:13
Speaker 1: like a three hour podcast, so you know, football junkie
9:17
Speaker 1: I am. I watched a lot of it, and all
9:21
Speaker 1: of them, to a man, was like. The thing with
9:25
Speaker 1: Bill Romanowski was his focus and his intensity, they said,
9:30
Speaker 1: never changed practice OTA's Super Bowl. He was the same
9:35
Speaker 1: guy the whole time. And Shannon asked him, like, where
9:37
Speaker 1: did you get that from? When did that start? And
9:40
Speaker 1: Romo told a story in training camp his rookie year.
9:44
Speaker 1: It was after the first preseason game. He said, I
9:47
Speaker 1: think Romo is like a fifth fourth round pick from
9:50
Speaker 1: Boston College nineteen eighty eight, comes to the forty nine ers,
9:53
Speaker 1: who in the peak of their powers, best team in
9:55
Speaker 1: the league, superstars everywhere, and he says, the first preseason game,
10:00
Speaker 1: I was trying to be under control and I was
10:03
Speaker 1: getting chippy with the tight end and after a play,
10:06
Speaker 1: the tight end shoved me to the ground. And Romo
10:09
Speaker 1: told the story, instead of fighting the guy like you
10:12
Speaker 1: know historically you would think of Bill Romanowski, get up
10:14
Speaker 1: and go back at him. He said, I just got
10:16
Speaker 1: back up and I ran to the huddle. I didn't
10:18
Speaker 1: think anything of it, and we just kept playing the
10:20
Speaker 1: rest of the preseason game. Said the next day, in
10:21
Speaker 1: film study, that play was shown in our defensive meeting
10:26
Speaker 1: room with the entire defense, and he said, all of
10:29
Speaker 1: a sudden, it shows me getting shoved to the ground
10:31
Speaker 1: and then running back to the huddle. He says, I
10:33
Speaker 1: hear a voice in I don't know if it was
10:35
Speaker 1: the front of the back of the room, and it's
10:36
Speaker 1: Ronnie lot and he said, George, turn off the lights,
10:40
Speaker 1: or excuse me, turn off the projector, and Ronnie flipped
10:43
Speaker 1: on the lights. He said, Ronnie walked right over to
10:46
Speaker 1: Bill Romanowski, who's a rookie at the time, and says,
10:50
Speaker 1: you can never let anyone in this league punk you,
10:53
Speaker 1: because they will punk you right out of the league.
10:56
Speaker 1: And Romo's looking up Ronnie Lott, who by then is
10:58
Speaker 1: clearly one of the best players in the league. And
11:01
Speaker 1: it just changes mindset. But it got me thinking about
11:04
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, because they're pretty lucky, and Chris
11:08
Speaker 1: Forrester mentioned today that the first seven days or so
11:13
Speaker 1: of training camp are basically just a redo of what
11:17
Speaker 1: they did in OTAs. You just reinstall the plays and
11:20
Speaker 1: go through the practices that you already did sometime in
11:25
Speaker 1: you know, in June. So he's like, it's not as
11:28
Speaker 1: crazy as it would sound. But listen, once the pad
11:30
Speaker 1: come on, things change it. It's obviously a little bit different,
11:34
Speaker 1: but it's not as nuts as you would think.
11:38
Speaker 2: Why.
11:39
Speaker 1: I agree. I do think there is an urgency and
11:41
Speaker 1: a seriousness to training camp that does not exist in
11:46
Speaker 1: OTA's in the offseason. That for younger players, new players,
11:51
Speaker 1: the best teams are always player led teams, and I
11:54
Speaker 1: think there is an added pressure and this is where
11:57
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers are lucky, and I think McVeigh
11:59
Speaker 1: would be the same. I think the Chiefs over the
12:01
Speaker 1: years would be the same. When you have a strong
12:04
Speaker 1: veteran presence of high character leadership guys, this is why
12:09
Speaker 1: we talk so much about the draft, so much about trades.
12:13
Speaker 1: I know, this guy's really good player. Everybody's kind of
12:15
Speaker 1: a slappy. Do you want this guy in your building?
12:19
Speaker 1: Because you never know what could happen your fucking head
12:22
Speaker 1: coach could be in a car accident, get an awful concussion,
12:25
Speaker 1: and training camp could start and he can't really operate.
12:29
Speaker 1: They even said, like every day starts in training camp
12:32
Speaker 1: and throughout the season of Kyle Shanahan running a meeting
12:35
Speaker 1: that can go anywhere from thirty to an hour, it
12:38
Speaker 1: is just football porn. As Christian McCaffrey once said, they
12:42
Speaker 1: have scrapped that meeting because they're not trying to replicate it.
12:45
Speaker 1: The pressure now to me, like Ronnie Lott once did,
12:49
Speaker 1: it wasn't on George Seaffert to tell Bill Romanowski what
12:52
Speaker 1: or what not to do. Ronnie Lott took that upon himself.
12:57
Speaker 1: And I actually think Ronnie Lott is probably one of
12:59
Speaker 1: the most underrated professional athletes in the history of sports.
13:02
Speaker 1: You know, people forget in nineteen eighty one, his rookie year,
13:06
Speaker 1: like that's when the forty nine ers took off. Obviously
13:09
Speaker 1: Joe Montana became a great player, but like I think
13:12
Speaker 1: Ronnie Lott in a weird way, in a lost generation,
13:15
Speaker 1: we don't really talk about guys in the eighties as much.
13:17
Speaker 1: Besides some of the quarterbacks, and like Walter Payton is
13:19
Speaker 1: one of the greatest players of all time, you know,
13:22
Speaker 1: and when you factor in his leadership. And when we
13:24
Speaker 1: were at the Super Bowl, I went to this forty
13:26
Speaker 1: nine er thing. I mean, you talk about a fucking alpha,
13:29
Speaker 1: I mean Jesus, and he was on a stage with
13:31
Speaker 1: Joe Montana and you could tell who the who the
13:34
Speaker 1: alpha on the stage was. And I think that's incumbent
13:38
Speaker 1: now on which all these guys have this in them.
13:41
Speaker 1: And this is why the forty nine ers have paid
13:42
Speaker 1: these guys. Fred Warner, Christian McCaffrey, Brock Purty, Trent Williams.
13:47
Speaker 1: You know, George Kittle's gonna be a little harder because
13:49
Speaker 1: he's on pup right now coming back from that injury.
13:52
Speaker 1: But they're gonna have to be a player led operation.
13:55
Speaker 1: And I think if the forty nine ers go on
13:56
Speaker 1: to have successful season, which I think they were slated
14:01
Speaker 1: to before this happened, and we'll see, you know, if
14:03
Speaker 1: you tell me Kyle comes back in a day, but
14:05
Speaker 1: if you tell me Kyle misses a month, like I think,
14:09
Speaker 1: there is a ton of pressure more than normal, and
14:12
Speaker 1: there is naturally a lot of pressure like when Ronnie
14:14
Speaker 1: Lott did that. Bill Walsh was the head coach George Seffert,
14:18
Speaker 1: who would go on to be a coach to take
14:20
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers win a Super Bowl in nineteen
14:21
Speaker 1: ninety four. Like, they have some big, big time guys
14:25
Speaker 1: on the staff. So even when your head coach is there,
14:29
Speaker 1: it is still on you to run the show because
14:32
Speaker 1: football is a lot different. Even though this is massive,
14:34
Speaker 1: billion dollar business than all these other companies that have
14:38
Speaker 1: thousands upon thousands of people working all over the country
14:41
Speaker 1: to make the systems and the processes go, that's not
14:44
Speaker 1: really the way this works. You're a business full of
14:47
Speaker 1: you know, your fifty three players, you're six or seven
14:51
Speaker 1: trainers whatever, your scouting staff is, your GM, right, I
14:55
Speaker 1: mean it's a small, tight knit group and your best
14:59
Speaker 1: players need to be your best leaders. And for all
15:02
Speaker 1: the people that said the forty nine ers you know
15:03
Speaker 1: are trending a little older, that is true. They're they're
15:07
Speaker 1: a little bit older than ideally you would want. But
15:11
Speaker 1: their leadership, their character, the stuff we talk about the
15:14
Speaker 1: entire offseason, the entire draft is elite. The Fred Warner,
15:20
Speaker 1: it doesn't get any better than that. The hell they
15:23
Speaker 1: just added Mike Evans, who I was texting someone today
15:25
Speaker 1: who was at practice. I said, you know the thing
15:26
Speaker 1: about Mike Evans, He's gonna fit in seamlessly. Super high
15:30
Speaker 1: character guy, awesome player, married, super serious cat, accomplished, winner,
15:37
Speaker 1: stud focused, no bullshit, fit right in. And you know what, Mike,
15:42
Speaker 1: if you want to lead that group, take it and
15:44
Speaker 1: run with it. Because that group, in that unit, the
15:47
Speaker 1: wide receiver group, is gonna need some of that. Probably
15:50
Speaker 1: why they paid him and why they kind of begged
15:52
Speaker 1: him to come and listen. I don't know how this
15:55
Speaker 1: is gonna go in all seriousness. I've only been in
16:00
Speaker 1: in one I would consider big crash. It's when I
16:03
Speaker 1: worked for the Eagles. Actually, I think I forget if
16:06
Speaker 1: it was during the season or scouting meetings. I was
16:08
Speaker 1: with a buddy who's still scouts in the league. We
16:10
Speaker 1: got hit, but from behind. He was driving me back
16:13
Speaker 1: to the hotel. We came to a full stop on
16:16
Speaker 1: the freeway. You know, it's like a backup, and I
16:18
Speaker 1: don't know if the guy was paying attention, and he
16:20
Speaker 1: just rocked our world. Now, granted, my buddy had an
16:23
Speaker 1: SUV totaled his car. Definitely the hardest I've ever been hit,
16:27
Speaker 1: But it's a big difference, which clearly Kyle got hit
16:30
Speaker 1: in some form or fashion in the front of the car,
16:33
Speaker 1: that something worse didn't happen. And I just think this is,
16:39
Speaker 1: you know, to if we want to bring a little
16:41
Speaker 1: levity of the situation, only the forty nine ers could
16:45
Speaker 1: have their head coach start a season in the concussion protocol.
16:49
Speaker 1: I mean, that would happen to no other teams. There's
16:52
Speaker 1: been some talk on the internet of like, how did
16:55
Speaker 1: this story stay you know, hidden, which to me is
16:59
Speaker 1: pretty crazy given that you know, he goes to an ambulance,
17:02
Speaker 1: sheriffs are on scene that it doesn't get out. I
17:05
Speaker 1: know he was released pretty fast, but it just just bananas.
17:11
Speaker 1: I mean, it really is, And I truly believe that
17:14
Speaker 1: there is Trent kind of poop pooted it a little bit.
17:18
Speaker 1: He didn't think they were added pressure on the vets,
17:20
Speaker 1: and maybe that's just the way they operate normal. Maybe
17:23
Speaker 1: nothing would change because the standard in which they practice,
17:26
Speaker 1: the standard in which they study, the standard in which
17:29
Speaker 1: you walk into the building and you leave the building
17:31
Speaker 1: on a daily basis in August wouldn't change whether Kyle
17:35
Speaker 1: was leading the team or whether I was leading the team.
17:37
Speaker 1: Given the guys they have, you know, on the roster.
17:40
Speaker 1: But I don't see how they couldn't feel a little
17:42
Speaker 1: bit sense of responsibility to kind of carry the torch,
17:45
Speaker 1: to kind of handle this. And we'll just have to monitor.
17:49
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows. I mean, I think it's all
17:52
Speaker 1: on the table now. And this is also where you benefit.
17:56
Speaker 1: You know, this would be this would derail like a
17:58
Speaker 1: new staff, right, this would this would have major issues
18:02
Speaker 1: if you were in New York and John Harbaugh couldn't
18:05
Speaker 1: run the thing. You have all these new coaches, You
18:07
Speaker 1: have different coordinators coming in from different places. Your players
18:10
Speaker 1: don't know the standard. But when you have, you know,
18:13
Speaker 1: this is Kyle's tenth year. So a lot of these
18:15
Speaker 1: coaches have been there forever. A lot of these players
18:18
Speaker 1: have been there forever. Obviously, John Lynch is kind of
18:21
Speaker 1: a unique figure given that he's a former player and
18:23
Speaker 1: he's been there the entire time. But this is just listen.
18:28
Speaker 1: I think I talked about watching Playmakers over over like
18:34
Speaker 1: the fourth of July holiday when I got sick and
18:37
Speaker 1: I just kind of watched it on my phone to
18:38
Speaker 1: kill a couple hours. It was just on YouTube. There's
18:42
Speaker 1: just not a story that can come out of the NFL.
18:46
Speaker 1: That wouldn't have fit that show. Like a head coach,
18:49
Speaker 1: a star head coach getting in a crazy car accident
18:53
Speaker 1: is just it's something you can't like you would write
18:56
Speaker 1: in a script and like, ah, this feels a little aggressive.
18:59
Speaker 1: Literally just happened. But in all seriousness, I mean glad
19:02
Speaker 1: he's okay. I mean, that's that's pretty nuts. Today's show

20:56
Speaker 1: Couple cardinal notes. We talked about it last week that
21:02
Speaker 1: the going rate for a bridge quarterback, whether you like
21:06
Speaker 1: it or not, is kind of twelve to eighteen million dollars,
21:10
Speaker 1: you know, especially for a guy who's already been on
21:12
Speaker 1: your team, who just threw twenty three touchdowns, who played
21:15
Speaker 1: pretty well five million dollars. He was actually making a
21:19
Speaker 1: little bit under that. I think maybe it was it
21:21
Speaker 1: was like five point four to eight. I kind of
21:24
Speaker 1: understood where Jacoby was coming from. So today he officially
21:28
Speaker 1: got a raise put some you know, fifteen million plus,
21:31
Speaker 1: which to me is right in the sweet spot. I
21:33
Speaker 1: saw some people on the interweb saying, why don't they
21:36
Speaker 1: just call us bluff, trade them, maybe cut them, make
21:41
Speaker 1: them play on that number. And the reality is is
21:45
Speaker 1: in the NBA, you would if this was the NBA,
21:48
Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett just they just would have been like, we're
21:51
Speaker 1: open for business. Any team needing a quarterback, we'll trade
21:54
Speaker 1: them to you, right and if it doesn't work out,
21:56
Speaker 1: maybe we'll just release them. But in the NFL, you
22:00
Speaker 1: can't start tanking at the end of July. You have
22:04
Speaker 1: other guys on your team like Buddha Baker, Trey McBride,
22:08
Speaker 1: other veteran players all over the roster that even if
22:11
Speaker 1: you're not going to be that good, and I think
22:13
Speaker 1: most of us would agree the Arizona Cardinals, it's going
22:16
Speaker 1: to be an uphill battle for them this season. And
22:19
Speaker 1: if you just got rid of Jacobe and said, hey,
22:20
Speaker 1: we're just going to start. Carson Beck would have a
22:23
Speaker 1: pretty good chance to compete for that number one overall pick,
22:26
Speaker 1: even though Carson Beck actually showed a lot of growth
22:29
Speaker 1: last year in Miami teams on things like that. Now,
22:32
Speaker 1: maybe come early November, yeah, you start pivoting a little bit.
22:36
Speaker 1: Help maybe even around Halloween you're just like, this isn't
22:39
Speaker 1: working out, Bencham, you don't do it now, because not
22:43
Speaker 1: only would you have a mutiny your players, you lose respect.
22:47
Speaker 1: There is a sense and this is we'll get into
22:49
Speaker 1: Lebron and Philly in a little bit. There were some
22:53
Speaker 1: people till still to this day that were like Sam
22:56
Speaker 1: Hinkey was on the right path. And I've always called
23:01
Speaker 1: bullshit on that, because no one would dispute. If you
23:05
Speaker 1: get the number one pick year after year in the NBA,
23:08
Speaker 1: you are more likely to land sweet players than if
23:11
Speaker 1: you just try to compete and get the eighth pick
23:13
Speaker 1: every year. We agree. But if year after year after
23:18
Speaker 1: year you're cool with losing and once you get some
23:22
Speaker 1: franchise players that continues, those are awful habits to create.
23:28
Speaker 1: Habits matter. Every person that's ever read a self help book,
23:32
Speaker 1: seen self help on Instagram just thought about it yourself.
23:36
Speaker 1: When you are consistent with good habits, you are more successful,
23:41
Speaker 1: more functional, more able to operate at a much higher
23:46
Speaker 1: level on a daily basis. That is a fact. What's
23:49
Speaker 1: the easiest way to lose weight be disciplined at consistent
23:53
Speaker 1: habits with what you eat. You can get on a
23:56
Speaker 1: jab and not eat anything, or you can just build
23:59
Speaker 1: the habits of you know, I'm gonna get some physical
24:01
Speaker 1: activity and I'm gonna eat not fucking Dorito's and cheeseburgers
24:06
Speaker 1: all the time. In my so'mores Kirkland brand from Costco,
24:11
Speaker 1: which officially disappeared from my house in less than two
24:15
Speaker 1: and a half days. She played a role in that too.
24:18
Speaker 1: It's probably like a sixty to forty split. She went
24:20
Speaker 1: to the store today. I said, Maria, I have one
24:24
Speaker 1: and one only kind of mandate. When you come back,
24:29
Speaker 1: no candy, no sweets, cannot be in the house. She obliged,
24:33
Speaker 1: came back with a bunch of healthy food and we'll
24:34
Speaker 1: try to have a healthy week. But the habits that
24:38
Speaker 1: you form in practice competing in games, even when you're losing,
24:41
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, they matter now for the stretch in football
24:45
Speaker 1: for a couple of months, okay, in the NBA for
24:48
Speaker 1: one given year, okay, But if you do it year
24:51
Speaker 1: after year after year, you're gonna build losing habits and
24:56
Speaker 1: you're gonna create people that even when it gets tough,
24:58
Speaker 1: we'll tap out. And clearly the Sixers for a long
25:01
Speaker 1: period of time. I mean, there's a reason they haven't
25:03
Speaker 1: been in the conference championship game in twenty five years.
25:06
Speaker 1: You know, there's a reason some of these NFL teams
25:08
Speaker 1: like never win. You could argue it starts at the top.
25:12
Speaker 1: And I commend the Cardinals for doing this just from
25:16
Speaker 1: like for your team. You know, like we can't tolerate
25:20
Speaker 1: just throwing away a season. Now, we can throw away
25:24
Speaker 1: five or six games at the end of the year
25:26
Speaker 1: by throwing the guy that maybe's not ready. But look
25:29
Speaker 1: at the Raiders. They can't just name Fernando Mendoza the
25:33
Speaker 1: starter because what if in two weeks he's not as
25:37
Speaker 1: good as Kirk Cousins. How do you look Jacoby or
25:41
Speaker 1: almost Jacoby Myers, not even team I was trying to
25:43
Speaker 1: say Max Crosby, and somehow Jacoby Myers came into my head.
25:46
Speaker 1: Max Crosby in the eye, who's playing balls to the
25:49
Speaker 1: wall twelve hours a day when he's in the facility. Yeah,
25:53
Speaker 1: we're gonna go with the guy who's not quite ready,
25:55
Speaker 1: but hey, we just drafted the number one. Doesn't fly. Now,
25:58
Speaker 1: you can make that pivot when it's clear, okay, but
26:01
Speaker 1: you can't do it early on, and the Cardinals made
26:05
Speaker 1: the right decision. Another story out of Arizona that kind
26:08
Speaker 1: of it kind of maybe me perk up, I must
26:12
Speaker 1: have missed this. But Trey McBride, the star tight end
26:15
Speaker 1: for a zone him, he's fantastic, He's he's probably one
26:19
Speaker 1: of the best players on a god awful team in
26:21
Speaker 1: the NFL. Like, if you just look around the NFL,
26:23
Speaker 1: of all the bad teams, he'd probably if you just
26:25
Speaker 1: had a draft of all the teams draft in the
26:27
Speaker 1: top five or six, he would go really really high.
26:31
Speaker 1: Total package stud. I guess he made some comments over
26:35
Speaker 1: the offseason and was asked about it right at the
26:38
Speaker 1: beginning of training camp and basically said, I shouldn't have
26:42
Speaker 1: said that. It came out wrong, and we have a
26:46
Speaker 1: tremendous fan base, Arizona's been here, loyal fans, blah blah blah.
26:49
Speaker 1: Here's what he said. This is what he said over
26:52
Speaker 1: the summer to Compton and Taylor Luan living in Arizona.
26:57
Speaker 1: No one's from Arizona. Everyone has kind of moved here
27:02
Speaker 1: from another state, so they're all fans of their own teams.
27:06
Speaker 1: So now you have the Arizona that sits there and
27:09
Speaker 1: there's no Arizona fans in Arizona. So it's a tough deal.
27:13
Speaker 1: Hopefully we start winning some games and we can bring
27:16
Speaker 1: some of those fans back. If you said something like
27:20
Speaker 1: this in Philadelphia, in Boston, in Chicago, it would be
27:26
Speaker 1: a Kansas City. People would be pissed because, like that
27:29
Speaker 1: is bullshit, That is one hundred percent factual from trade
27:34
Speaker 1: McBride I have. I would say this about my you know,
27:39
Speaker 1: time in Arizona. It is a big sports area. People
27:45
Speaker 1: love sports here, Like I come from northern California, where
27:48
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers, the San Franco Giants, the Warriors
27:51
Speaker 1: when I was a kid in the Sacramento Kings when
27:53
Speaker 1: they were good. Those teams matter a lot to all
27:55
Speaker 1: the people living there because a lot of them are
27:57
Speaker 1: from there. Some general area going to LA like the
28:00
Speaker 1: Dodgers and the Lakers mean a lot to a lot
28:02
Speaker 1: of people. You know why they've been in LA for
28:04
Speaker 1: a long time. If you go to Chicago, the Bears
28:08
Speaker 1: mean a shitload. If you come to Arizona, you know,
28:11
Speaker 1: the biggest NFL team. You could argue it's a team
28:15
Speaker 1: from the Midwest. The amount of people I meet on
28:17
Speaker 1: a daily basis that are from Minnesota, that are from Chicago,
28:21
Speaker 1: that are from Kansas City. We had a ton of
28:23
Speaker 1: people moving from Seattle and a huge, huge, forty nine
28:27
Speaker 1: er contingent. It's why a couple of years ago when
28:30
Speaker 1: the fires happened in Palisades when they didn't have any
28:32
Speaker 1: fucking water and the whole place burned down, and the
28:35
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams had to play their playoff game in
28:39
Speaker 1: Arizona against the Minnesota Vikings. It was a Minnesota Vikings
28:44
Speaker 1: home game. Because the amount of people that have moved here,
28:48
Speaker 1: that live here half the year, that are just here
28:50
Speaker 1: a lot, especially in the winter, is enormous. This, by
28:55
Speaker 1: all accounts, over the last four or five years, has
28:57
Speaker 1: been depending on the statue, look at one of like
29:01
Speaker 1: the six or seventh fastest growing state in America, not
29:06
Speaker 1: people that are here. This is honestly the Arizona Cardinals
29:11
Speaker 1: for being a NFL franchise, you could argue in the
29:14
Speaker 1: area in which they are have less fans than any
29:17
Speaker 1: team Vegas would be up there. But Vegas just moved
29:20
Speaker 1: there within the last five years. Cardinals have been here forever.
29:23
Speaker 1: You know. I was actually at a party this weekend,
29:26
Speaker 1: one year old birthday party, my second in six months.
29:30
Speaker 1: Your boy's really coming along as a mature young man.
29:35
Speaker 1: Having a few beers. Of course, I somehow find the
29:39
Speaker 1: guy at the party who played college football, and we
29:42
Speaker 1: just started talking football, and he started talking. He works here,
29:46
Speaker 1: he's from Oklahoma originally, and just he goes to these games.
29:51
Speaker 1: He's like, it's crazy the atmosphere when you go to
29:54
Speaker 1: an NFL game in Glendale, and I'm like, yeah, it's
29:57
Speaker 1: not like that most other places. It just does not.
30:02
Speaker 1: And I think some of these teams that have dealt
30:04
Speaker 1: with that have been kind of nomadic teams, right the Raiders,
30:09
Speaker 1: the Rams have moved, the Chargers have moved. Understandable, it
30:12
Speaker 1: would never be like that if you went to a
30:14
Speaker 1: Green Bay Pack or a Philadelphia Eagle, a Pittsburgh steel
30:17
Speaker 1: or Chicago Bears game. Not saying they're not opposing fans
30:20
Speaker 1: in the building on game day, but it doesn't look
30:23
Speaker 1: like just this diverse group of individuals from all over America.
30:28
Speaker 1: So I'm just going there to see a football game,
30:30
Speaker 1: and I just think we got to get away from apologizing.
30:34
Speaker 1: It's one thing if you say something kind of mean
30:36
Speaker 1: spirited or whatever, especially if you're a pro athlete, it's
30:38
Speaker 1: like it wasn't worth it. This one is just a
30:41
Speaker 1: one percent fact. It just is and there is no
30:46
Speaker 1: disputing it. You know. And despite this being this growing
30:51
Speaker 1: economic hub for America, the greater Scottsdale Phoenix area. We
30:56
Speaker 1: talked about this last week. If the if the Cardinals
30:59
Speaker 1: came up for sale, I guess the NFL. But when
31:04
Speaker 1: you factor in their stadiums in bumfuck Egypt, the brand
31:09
Speaker 1: of them is no like Seattle just sold. Their fan
31:13
Speaker 1: base literally has a nickname. It is one of the
31:15
Speaker 1: hardest plays to play in, you know, in America, college
31:21
Speaker 1: or pro. Even when the Panthers sold a couple of
31:23
Speaker 1: years ago. There's only a handful of teams in the
31:27
Speaker 1: Greater Southern region. And obviously he's in one of the
31:30
Speaker 1: booming areas in America in Charlotte. Like you could argue,
31:34
Speaker 1: this is one of the worst brands in football. And
31:36
Speaker 1: this is a guy that I live here. I don't
31:38
Speaker 1: plan on leaving. I'm just calling a spade a spade.
31:42
Speaker 1: It is what it is. Trey McBride what he said,
31:44
Speaker 1: It was just a fact. Can I tell you about
31:53
Speaker 1: my friends at seat Geek. You want to go to
31:56
Speaker 1: a game? You want to go to one of these

Speaker 1: so you can use it later. Thanks to Sea geek
33:00
Speaker 1: Lebron James forty one years old. You know, here's it's
33:05
Speaker 1: funny in the NFL when you're forty one years old,
33:09
Speaker 1: there's no such thing as ring chasing. When you take
33:11
Speaker 1: four million dollars a year, you can play for whoever
33:14
Speaker 1: you want, wherever you want, whenever you want. But like
33:18
Speaker 1: when he went to the Miami Heat and built his team,
33:20
Speaker 1: when Kevin Durant came to the Warriors, we always say,
33:22
Speaker 1: like rig Jason, and part of that is, you can
33:25
Speaker 1: build a team in the NBA right right right now,
33:27
Speaker 1: if like Jokich, Curry, I don't know, Anthony Edwards, if
33:32
Speaker 1: you could compile a team and they all were free agents,
33:35
Speaker 1: like you could build a team that was just basically
33:37
Speaker 1: a lock to win a NBA finals the next couple years.
33:39
Speaker 1: The NFL does not work like that. You could build
33:42
Speaker 1: the greatest team on paper and might be you know,
33:45
Speaker 1: you might win ten games right and get bounced in
33:47
Speaker 1: the first round. But even the great teams like the
33:51
Speaker 1: Patriots forever, we always gave guys a lot of credit.
33:54
Speaker 1: It's like he's taken a little less to win a
33:57
Speaker 1: New England got the right type mentality, right, remember JJ
34:01
Speaker 1: Watt and I was on this block. It's like, JJ,
34:04
Speaker 1: take a little less, go to the Green Bay Packers.
34:07
Speaker 1: They had Aaron Rodgers winning MVPs. You're from Wisconsin' be
34:10
Speaker 1: fucking awesome. One there's no guaranteed who's gonna win. And
34:13
Speaker 1: two I think he even told the story their offer
34:16
Speaker 1: or I don't even know if they really did. The
34:18
Speaker 1: Cardinals gave him like twenty two million dollars, So it's like, yeah,
34:21
Speaker 1: they're offering me four million dollars. Other teams offered me
34:23
Speaker 1: twenty two million dollars. Easy for you to say. It's
34:26
Speaker 1: like eeah, kind of right, Like would I rather live
34:28
Speaker 1: in a Green Bay, Wisconsin or in Scottsdale and triple
34:31
Speaker 1: my money? Like kind of understand. Hell, he hasn't moved since.
34:35
Speaker 1: So you know, in basketball, we crushed some of these
34:38
Speaker 1: guys and some of it I understand, Like Kevin Durant
34:40
Speaker 1: just got beat by the Warriors and joined him, and
34:42
Speaker 1: it was clear when he joined that they were never
34:44
Speaker 1: gonna lose. And even in Miami it's like, I know
34:47
Speaker 1: they lost your one, but there was no way if
34:50
Speaker 1: they played together for several years that they weren't a
34:52
Speaker 1: lock to win one, and they won two, and they
34:54
Speaker 1: went to four straight. But you gotta give him a
34:57
Speaker 1: little credit because even in his statement that said this
35:03
Speaker 1: wasn't about money, he even said this wasn't about family.
35:07
Speaker 1: Because it would have been the easiest thing to do,
35:09
Speaker 1: would be he already lives in la He's I'm sure
35:12
Speaker 1: got a jet to get back and forth with under
35:14
Speaker 1: forty minutes. It would have been easy Golden to go
35:17
Speaker 1: to Golden State, right, could have got more money as well,
35:21
Speaker 1: But we all know they weren't winning shit, right The
35:24
Speaker 1: Warriors definitely aren't now. But even if he had gone there,
35:26
Speaker 1: like didn't guarantee them anything and more than likely probably
35:29
Speaker 1: have been pretty similar to what they've been. That would
35:32
Speaker 1: have been the easy route, and going to Cleveland there
35:35
Speaker 1: would have been this nostalgic going home for the seventeenth time,
35:38
Speaker 1: and that wouldn't have worked either. I do think going
35:42
Speaker 1: to Philadelphia in a place that having lived there for
35:46
Speaker 1: a couple of years, the thing that I hated the weather.
35:49
Speaker 1: It was way too cold for me in the winter.
35:52
Speaker 1: But there was such a there was such a character
35:56
Speaker 1: to the people, like I love the people in Philadelphia.
36:00
Speaker 1: There was like a there was this toughness, intensity, urgency.
36:04
Speaker 1: I had a lot in common with a lot of them.
36:07
Speaker 1: I just I just didn't like living there. The winners,
36:10
Speaker 1: even the summers are hot and humid. I'm just not
36:13
Speaker 1: a Northeast guy. But I really it was a big city,
36:16
Speaker 1: but it kind of felt small. Easy to get around,
36:18
Speaker 1: love going out, love the food. I thoroughly enjoyed my
36:22
Speaker 1: time living there. And I think he's gonna benefit from
36:26
Speaker 1: something dramatically. Wherever he would have gone, it's an enormous
36:31
Speaker 1: story when the season starts, well, he's going to a
36:35
Speaker 1: place where sports are king. Sports are a huge deal,
36:40
Speaker 1: but there is nothing bigger in the Philadelphia Eagles, and
36:43
Speaker 1: it ain't even close. Now he's going to make the
36:46
Speaker 1: Sixers even bigger, obviously, depending on what happens to the Phillies.
36:49
Speaker 1: They're massive and there's a Lebron factor. But I'll promise
36:53
Speaker 1: you this, there is not a bigger thing in town
36:58
Speaker 1: seven days a week on sports ra radio on just
37:01
Speaker 1: the conversations than the Birds. And I actually think it
37:04
Speaker 1: makes it a little easier. And I'm not saying he
37:06
Speaker 1: was thinking like this, but this is going to be
37:10
Speaker 1: a kind of indirect benefit that once he gets there's
37:13
Speaker 1: going to realize, like you get to fly a little
37:16
Speaker 1: under the radar the first couple months because the Eagles
37:20
Speaker 1: whether it's going great and it's like we're going back
37:23
Speaker 1: to Super Bowl again, Sean man is gonna be hey, coach,
37:24
Speaker 1: should we fire Syrian and keep Sean manning? Dalen Hurts
37:27
Speaker 1: got a swag back? Or it's not going good? And
37:30
Speaker 1: that's even more conversation. As a wise man with the
37:34
Speaker 1: long radio background once told me, there are certain markets
37:37
Speaker 1: that actually like losing more than winning in terms of radio.
37:42
Speaker 1: The ratings go up and Philly, Detroit, New York, Boston,
37:47
Speaker 1: some of those you know out in the Bay Area
37:51
Speaker 1: where I'm from, you lose people just don't listen. You know,
37:54
Speaker 1: this is old school radio. I don't even know any
37:56
Speaker 1: of it exists anymore. But just in terms of the
38:00
Speaker 1: Eagles take and suck so much oxygen out of the
38:03
Speaker 1: room that even a guy like Lebron who likes people
38:06
Speaker 1: talk about Lebron is gonna get a little bit easier
38:10
Speaker 1: runway to start. And what a moment. I mean when
38:16
Speaker 1: that came across the ticker. Honestly, my jid the floor
38:18
Speaker 1: like he chose the Sixers shows you. Bob Myers, who
38:23
Speaker 1: was the was a longtime agent, took over the Warriors
38:28
Speaker 1: as an assistant GM, then became the GM. Obviously when
38:32
Speaker 1: they won all the titles, was a big part in
38:34
Speaker 1: recruiting Kevin Durant. He's a very player friendly front office guy.
38:38
Speaker 1: Went on Rich Paul's podcast and I text I remember
38:42
Speaker 1: texting Ethan Strauss, I said, I just think Bob kind
38:45
Speaker 1: of understands the world we're in. You know what they
38:48
Speaker 1: say a couple of years ago, what was a huge,
38:50
Speaker 1: huge swing in the political world. One side was going
38:53
Speaker 1: on the podcast and the other side shown their nose
38:55
Speaker 1: at it. Well, the world fucking changed. You can go
38:58
Speaker 1: on radio stations, no one's listen. You can Q and
39:00
Speaker 1: a's in a newspaper, Fucking no one under fifty fives
39:03
Speaker 1: reading that thing. You know, you gotta realize go on
39:06
Speaker 1: with Rich Paul like he's no dummy, and you can't
39:09
Speaker 1: convince me that that didn't have some added impact and
39:13
Speaker 1: kind of set the wheels in motion. So congrats to
39:15
Speaker 1: Bob Myers. Josh Harris, who has one of the weirdest
39:19
Speaker 1: setups of all time. You know that he owns the
39:22
Speaker 1: Philadelphia seventy six ers and he owns the Washington Commanders.
39:26
Speaker 1: It a little weird. Ideally you just own the multiple
39:30
Speaker 1: franchises in the same city. Yeah, but that's not really
39:36
Speaker 1: the way it works. And last, but not least, Tony
39:40
Speaker 1: Romo got a got a dewey this weekend or ow
39:45
Speaker 1: I operating while intoxicated. You can't look at that picture.
39:50
Speaker 1: Like when you look at Tony's picture, who looks like
39:53
Speaker 1: he had about a six pack and three double vodkas
39:56
Speaker 1: and two tequilas. There is not a judge in the
39:59
Speaker 1: Mayora that's gonna look at that picture. And you beat
40:02
Speaker 1: the allegations like you were drunk, you know. And rough
40:08
Speaker 1: weekend for Tony Romo shot thirty five over in some
40:12
Speaker 1: Wisconsin state amateur tournament ended clearly threw a lot back
40:17
Speaker 1: and got pulled over on the freeway and has just
40:22
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to make light of it because obviously
40:24
Speaker 1: drinking and driving can lead to catastrophe, can lead to
40:28
Speaker 1: people losing their life, so it is not funny. But
40:31
Speaker 1: there have been you know, I would put Tiger Woods
40:34
Speaker 1: pill the UI. I think it was like two thousand
40:37
Speaker 1: and seventeen eighteen range where he got pulled over on
40:40
Speaker 1: the side of the road in the Mercedes as like
40:43
Speaker 1: his all time mug shot, I'd put Tony Romo's mug shot.
40:48
Speaker 1: It just the sun, the smile, the look of intoxication,
40:53
Speaker 1: the look of a guy that's like, that's not just beer.
40:57
Speaker 1: He's had some hard booze. He's had some hard booze.
41:01
Speaker 1: And yeah, I think his court date, which again like
41:05
Speaker 1: of lawyers and not gonna is the week that I
41:07
Speaker 1: think they're calling a game in Brazil, like the second
41:09
Speaker 1: or third week of the season. I can't even keep
41:11
Speaker 1: up when all the international games are. But what a
41:16
Speaker 1: crazy weekend you got. You just get stories coming out
41:19
Speaker 1: of the NFL. This one, this is playmakers. This is
41:23
Speaker 1: real life playmakers. One of their biggest broadcasters after a
41:27
Speaker 1: golf tournament gets DUI where you just look at the picture.
41:30
Speaker 1: He shit house. One of the star coaches of the NFL. Again,
41:35
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly how it happens. I've seen some
41:37
Speaker 1: people google image the road. If you just had a
41:42
Speaker 1: guess based on the way the two roads are the intersection,
41:45
Speaker 1: it would probably be a t bone situation, which, based
41:48
Speaker 1: on his injury, maybe he hits driver's side but again,
41:51
Speaker 1: who knows, we'll get more information coming out, gets absolutely crunched.
41:56
Speaker 1: Forty stitches in his face, like forty stitches. That is
42:01
Speaker 1: a shit look, broken nose, blood everywhere. Listen to the
42:04
Speaker 1: nine to one to one call. You got Lebron James
42:07
Speaker 1: going to the Philadelphia seventy six ers. What a crazy
42:10
Speaker 1: ass weekend. I guess that has nothing to do with
42:12
Speaker 1: the playmakers, but you could throw that in there as well.
42:15
Speaker 1: We'll be back all week fired up, football really getting going.
42:20
Speaker 1: It's we're still a couple of days away from pads
42:23
Speaker 1: coming on. You know, pre twenty eleven, I just think
42:26
Speaker 1: they would have thrown pads on tomorrow. But now there's
42:28
Speaker 1: the acclamation period. I saw there's an investigation by the
42:33
Speaker 1: NFLPA on the Nick Scorting injury because there's a ramp
42:37
Speaker 1: up process. You can't just have them. You know, they're
42:39
Speaker 1: gonna evaluate the uh, the film on his injury to
42:44
Speaker 1: make sure they weren't going too aggressive when they weren't
42:46
Speaker 1: supposed to. But crazy times, crazy times, we will. We'll
42:52
Speaker 1: see you tuesday. The volume
