• 0:49
  Speaker 4: for helping me on Sunday with a small donation. It's
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: not really about the donation. It's more about my wife
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: who decide on Bowl Sunday to ask my friends to
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: donate money for a contest essentially and essentially.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: A fundraiser like a kid's fundraiser or something.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: So basically a friend of ours is doing a fund
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: a fundraiser, and we're doing We're part of it. We're
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: doing cancer research for my my late father in law
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: who passed away from a blood cancer. But you know
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: she so she has her main fundraiser and there's like
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: little you know, there's kind of like little arms off
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: of it. Right, we're one of the arms. And the
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: on Sunday at midnight, you got a bonus. You got
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: a thousand dollars I think added from the organization if
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: you had the most states that donated to your cause. Right,
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: the fund the fundraiser still runs through the end of March,
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: I think. So they were over a house Claire, who
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: has the fundraiser, and they were talking about this. So
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: my wife decided to grab my phone and start texting
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: everyone I knew in the second quarter of Super Bowl
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: Sunday asking for money from different states. It was twenty
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: twenty five dollars, like you know when I asking for
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: a million. But like I was like, you know, Merath
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: at Super Bowl Sunday, like you understand that, right, like
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: in the second quarter of Super Bowl Sunday. And she's like,
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: she's like this so and so answer. I was like, no,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: it's Super Bowl Sunday. They did not answer.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: People are busy.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I knew you.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: I knew I knew you would answer, So thank you
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: for that. I knew another buddy of my Conneticut would answer.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: But I appreciate your donation. Thank you, but just a
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: perfect meritith thing like middle of Super Bowl, the second
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: quarter of the most watched game of the entire season,
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: and she's grabbed my phone to text people for a
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: good cause. But nonetheless on Super Bowl Sunday.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: She's a wild card and I love it.
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: It's so it's just ah man.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Uh the game? Did it play out the way you
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: thought it would?
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I said, twenty four thirteen Seahawks, So yeah, exactly.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: Now the final score was pretty close, but the way
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: it playing out I think was not what I imagine.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: I didn't imagine. Seattle just dominate. But look, man, football
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: can be complicated, right. We can certainly talk about it
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: that way. We can make it complicated, but in the end,
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: it actually is very simple. Right. Are you better in
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: the trenches? Are you better at tackling? Are you better
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: at quarterback? Right? Are you better on special teams? Like?
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: All those things mattered, and they're all mattered in this game.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: They all matter in this game. Seattle's punter was fantastic
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: in this game. The hicker was five for five. Those
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: things all matter in this game. They're better in the trenches.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: They sacked it was ended up being six sacks. Even
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: though the you know, the it was really interception touchdown
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: the one that was caught and and on the strip
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: of Sandar of Drake May that could have been a
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: seventh sack, but it was ruled interception on a sack.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: So like it just they dominated the trenches, man, Like
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: that sometimes is how simple sports can be, the NFL
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: can be. So you know, it's Seattle looked at a
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: choice Pete Carroll or the GM John Schneider, and they
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: chose the GM, and they're paid off handsomely with a
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl and with a roster that he has built
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: up from scratch. It feels like just an incredible job
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: by Seattle staff to get here. McDonald was great, just
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: a really good win. There's a quality football win. Man.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: What does it say about the Patriots that it went
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: down the way that it went down, that you know,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: they gave up more sacks than any team ever has
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: did a playoff run? And I will get to Will
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Campbell specifically here in a second, Hello to the dog.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: My daughter's home, and you know, just like, yeah.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: They're a young team still, so are they going to
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: be able to sustain this success?
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: So my pushback on the Patriots that you're heading into
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: the game. Was I just think they were I don't
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: think they were overly talented team, right when you look
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: at their roster, their starters, right, So Drake, may I
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: think we agree really really good. Right. Christian Zalez, one
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: of their corners, was great, played great in this game, right.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: I mean if there was like a defensive MVP, you know,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: maybe it was gonna be him, right, he was great.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: And then you look at the defensive tackles, right, Barmore
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: and Williams. Barrymore's name wasn't called all games. Williams got
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: a sack on the Seattle, right, coach, I thought would
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: be an advantage for them in this game. That's it.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: That's it. Like they don't have a lot of football
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: players relative to other Super Bowl teams, right, you know, Seattle,
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: you could route a lawful a bunch of guys. I mean,
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: Jase JSN is better than anyone in New England has
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: their team, right, and so that that so New England
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: just has to get better. Now they have the quarterback,
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: which is the start, but they have to get better
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: around the quarterback now, So I and their schedus gonna
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: be much tougher this year. They're not gonna play easy
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: schedule like they did this past season, so it does
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: feel like a much tougher task to get back to
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: where they are. Then Seattle that has a ton of caps,
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: plays a super young team and feels much easier for
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: them to just get back to where they know, to
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: where they you know, to where they were this year.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about Will Campbell.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's being dragged right now, having a really rough game,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: and you know that's gonna happen. I imagine too young
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: offensive linemen sometimes, but you don't want it to happen in.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: The Super Bowl.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen some of your comments on I don't
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: know if our audience has seen the same stuff I've seen,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: so suare.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So you know, it didn't play very well as
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: we know, and he spoke to media today, did not
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: speak after the game, which you know, I don't know.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: I thought it was wasn't great, but in the end
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: doesn't matter. He spoke today. So essentially, it's just so funny. Man.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: So he's listed at six to six and I believe
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: it's it's like three twenty, right, but he doesn't play
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: sixty six three twenty And I've made the comment a
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: couple times, like he doesn't play big, and people are like, well,
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: six sixty three twenty he's played big. He is not
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: the same six sixty three twenty right, the right, the
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: right tackle for New England. Six sixty three twenty cool.
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: Look at them, Look at Morgan Mosa and Will Campbell.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: They're not the same player. And so he plays a
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: style of football in my opinion, at the position that
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: doesn't benefit his body. He tries to do too much,
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: too many things that sort of big guys can do.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: But he doesn't play big. He's not that strong. He's
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: not strong enough to do those things yet. And I
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: put in the video you know that he had some
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: good reps in this game. Wasn't all bad, and the
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: good reps were how he needs to play almost all
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: the time with a couple exceptions, and he can do it.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: He showed he can do it various times in this game.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: So to me, it's just about honing that in. Right,
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: he's a rookie, he's young. Just just do what works
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: for you, don't try to do too much, and you'll
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: be fine. I'm not concerned by it, obviously in the moment.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: It's miserable because it's a Super Bowl over your eyes
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: are on. You didn't lose because of him. But that's
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: where it needs to be fixed. Just when you're technique in,
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: you want to use the technique that really is you
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: know again, like you're not a big guy. Though you're
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: listed big, you don't play big. You don't big physical
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: features like again, look at his butt, look at his legs,
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: look at his back, his like wings span is very
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: it's not the same thing. So you know you're listed
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: big and you might think you're big, like you, it's
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: not how he plays, Sean right, he can't play in
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: my opinion, he can't play the way he played in
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: this game. So it's easy fixed. You just gonna fix the technique.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: He can do it. He's he's plenty good enough when
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: he gets his hands on guys. He just doesn't get
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: his hands on guys hook enough.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Is that an off season fix or will it take
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: longer than that?
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: I think he can fix it this offseason, and you
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: know being healthy is gonna help. Right, He has a
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: bum knee, which you know everyone this time of year
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: has something going on. His knee feels pretty bad and
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: so you know with a little bit of health. I
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: think he'll be fine. I'm not concerned about it. I'm
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: really not. He was playing fine before he got hurt.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: He missed four weeks in December ish time range, and
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: he'll be fine. Man. It's just it just sucks. It's
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: in the moment, right in this moment, everyone's watching and
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: everyone knows your name, and it's kind of the worst
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: spot to be for an offensive lineman.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: Jeff Schwartz is our guest here on the Sean O'Connell Show.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: So I saw a headline that Max Crosby is done
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: with the Raiders. He doesn't want to play for the
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Raiders anymore, told Tom Brady as such. He's bothered by
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: the fact that they shut him down, et cetera, et cetera.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Seems like a fractured relationship. But obviously they've they've got
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: a new coach coming in. Yeah, and you know, even
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Tom himself is relatively new to the ownership situation, so
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: you could potentially.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Get more out of him. Whatever.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Is that a relationship you should try to repair or
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: you just say, all right, you know what, it's not
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: gonna work out.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: Let's get some value out of a guy like this.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: If we can't.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: So today Quint Kubiak was in was in Vegas, the
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: new head coach, the sales office coordinator, and he said
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: there was a He said he spoke to Crosby this morning.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: They had coffee, and I think that you can't let
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: guys like that leave the building. Right. He is, for
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: all as a person, a great leader. Right, We've heard
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: about his leadership, his work ethic. He wants to be
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: a raider, right, like you need those guys, in my opinion,
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: to be in the building. And look, could you get
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: extreme value for him? Probably? I bet you could get
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: a good return from Max Crosby if you view that
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: return as greater than the leadership you're losing. Okay, I
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: can buy that if you have a new coach and
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: you want to reset. But I feel like Crosby fits
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: every coach, that type of player he is, and so
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: I keep him anyway I can, and you start repairing
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: that relationship with the front office with him and Crosby
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: obviously new head coach now, so that relationship starts brand new.
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: I would try to keep him as best as possible.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: I really wouldn't resist any error to trade him.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Now we turn our focus to the upcoming in NFL
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: draft process.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: I think it's a college basketball he's a little worried. Well,
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: I'll do a BYU covering tonight, by the way, So
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: there we go.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: We'll get to some Olympic betting here in just a second.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: But what right now for players that are getting ready
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: for this upcoming NFL draft, Like, give me your hierarchy
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: on the important part most important parts of the process
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: that none of us get to watch.
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, it's just, you know, it's to me,
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: it's about you know, making sure your body is prepped
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: for the combine, right, and that includes you know, make
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: sure your diet, your rehab. You know, I was trying
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: to cut weight, like that's what I have to do.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: I had to cut weight to watch every single calori
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: that in my body to make sure I was prepared
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: to be my best at the combine. And you know, mentally, right,
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: just having an idea of what your sales pitch is
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: going to be. You're gonnamute. All these teams they're going
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: to talk to you. They want you to be authentic,
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: of course, but you don't, you know, I think you
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: need to sort of have an idea of what you
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: want to say to you know, to these teams in
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: these meetings. So it's just about getting all those things
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: prepared to be ready to go to combine. Right the combine.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: You're you're probably not going that far up in draft
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: stock with the combine, but you can go down very
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: very fast if you don't have your business. It's a
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: it's a job interview that you know you you should
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: a so you know it's coming. You know, Failing the
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: drug test is just to be a mortal sin of
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: the combine. Like, come on, I know NFL. I'm gonnau
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: an NFL test for for stuff anymore. I think it'snill
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: test the combine though, like just just be you know,
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: be a professional, right, And so those are things that
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: guys are going through right now to get ready to go.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: And I've said this many times. You know, you you're
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: in a cycle now where you know your COAE football
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: season ended, so you've been going since August and you
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: basically don't stop unti the end of your rookie season. Man,
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: it's a NonStop grind until the end of your rookie season.
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: So they're just in the middle of this right now.
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: It's a fun time because you're thinking about your future.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: You're preparing for the NFL, but the combine you don't
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: get super important to put, you know, put your best
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: foot forward there.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: What Olympic sport are you most intrigued to to bet on?
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: Well, I didn't bet on it today, but I watched
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: that that that ski sprinting, the cross.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: Country skiing where they're just running up.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: Hill, running up a hill. Yeah, yeah, it's pretty wild.
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: And the American finished second today, which I think is
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: our first medal in that sport since like the early seventies.
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: But this guy I think is Norwegian, like just just
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: he's the favorite, just like took off and sprinted immediately.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: I loved everyone turned into a ski expert on on Saturday.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: It was a Saturday Sunday morning when when Lindsey Von
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: got hurt, everyone was like, turn into a full on
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: expert on skiing.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: It's the best part about like World Cup, soccer, Olympics. Yeah,
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: anything that happens in like a three four year cycle
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: where we ignore it and then we've become huge experts
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: on it overnight. I love that about these events.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: I so I've not made many wagers yet on much
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: I hope to do more. I mean hockey, I'll probably
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: be able to a little bit of you know, put
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: something on. I saw the idea the other day. Actually
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: sort of makes sense. Shouldn't basketball be played right now
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: at the Olympics. Why is it a summer sport?
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, I guess, but doesn't it feel more like
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: a summer sport it's played during the winter, I know,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: But does it basketball field more like a summer sport?
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: Sure, but it's but it's physically played during the winter.
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: So that's why I'm asking. I'm curious, like like like
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: NHL is taking a break right now right to play
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: to do this? Why it just seems I mean, it
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: would really it would really give a pozazz to the
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: Winter Olympics that they need. I feel like I have
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: to have some some NBA.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: If you have a bunch of.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Dudes running around in shorts and tank tops at the
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: at the Winter Olympics, they'd be inside though I know,
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I know, but even the indoor events at the Winter Olympics.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: I ever wearing. I am. I'm fascinated by the I
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: mean these this, the ice skating, the speed skating, the
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: speed skating is like fascinating to me. It's uh it's
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: been fun to watch. And uh, you know refer I
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: heard you on earlier talking about, you know, the the
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: athletes that are voicing their pins on our country, and
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: I know I heard you say something like it's sort
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: of like not maybe the appropriate time to do so,
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: or they're you know, it's but I feel like, isn't
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: this is the only time for them to do this?
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: Well, No, that's I think. I I.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Like, some people feel like you want to you know,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: don't don't talk about it, but it's like and the Olympics,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: this is the time where you have the most like
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: universal audience, right and whatever it is you're trying to say, so, yeah,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: like and and because of I think some of the
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: big stories of sports history from my youth were associated
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: with the Olympic Games, you know, like with boycotts, with
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: protests at the Olympics, things like that. I've always felt
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: like the Olympics are more political than like professional sports.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: And I and I probably, yes, I probably have more
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: of a if more of an interest in hearing what
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Olympians think of it because I'm I'm this way, like,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: I don't if you have five hundred million dollars from
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: your NBA career. I probably don't care what your political
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: opinions are because you don't live a real life. You
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: don't have the same concerns that any other like citizen
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: of this country has. If you're like just some random
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: dude who worked for four years so that he could
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: slide down a hill fast, you probably have a regular
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: job and may I don't know, but yeah.
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: It's I.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: I have always associated the Olympics with more political discussion
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: rather than the opposite. But the official rule at the
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Olympics is you can't make political statements or religious statements
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: or racial statements.
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: Really like the USA rule, the IOC.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: Rules, the yes, the Olympic Committee rule.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: Oh wow, I did not know that. The thing that
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: you know, look this this country. I feel like it's
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: the most American thing to be able to speak your
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: mind without repercussion at the Olympics. Like you might disagree
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: with the thing they're saying, but you know the people
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: that are like just shut up and skiing. I mean,
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: this is the most American thing you can do. Is
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: is like voice your opinion without repercussion from the government.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a nuance of our constitution that people have
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: really lost. Like everyone loves free speech as long as
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: it's free speech they agree with, and when it's free
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: speech that they don't like, they're just like, no, that's bad,
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: don't put it out there anymore.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: I I you know, I just I don't like I
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: I also just don't like have the energy to care
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: about things like the halftime show, Like I like, you know,
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: bad Buddies seem fine. I don't know. My daughter loved it.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: She knew all the songs. We had some friends over
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: that knew the songs. Good. It was good. Visual that
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: the trees being humans was very funny. I know. That's
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: afterwards onto the field like little living trees was pretty
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: you know. I'm worried about like, you know, play in
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: some bets and eat some food and go to the bathroom.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not concerned as much with the halftime show,
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: but like people are such hard like just really like
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: steadfast opinions. I'm like, why, well, it's a halftime show.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Like the thing about it is that people don't seem
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: to really have a hard time with the idea that
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: not everything is for them, right, Like the super Bowl
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: halftime show is not always going to be for you.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: They're going to be artists who sing in English. I
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: don't like, but it's not for me, Like it's okay
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: to just say that, like it's not for you, and
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: so people have just a hard time shown it feels
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: like we're just acknowledging that it's okay and not everything
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: was for you, right yea, And that show was clearly
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: for someone even if it wasn't for you, it was
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: for someone, and just like you can accept that and
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: have to be for you all the time.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Well, for me, I tried to carefully make my statement
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: about like I'm not like the politic politicization, like people
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: trying to make that about politics. I refuse to to
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: even participate that. For me, it was just like, oh, yeah,
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: like this is for a younger audience that listens to
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: this music. I'm just an old now. Like when it
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: was when they did the halftime show where it was
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: like jay Z came out and they were doing all
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: these like throwback songs and ice Cube and all that.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I was like, okay, this is for me.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And there were probably a lot of young people
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: or people older than me that were like, this is
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: not for me. This one was the first one I
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: think where I was just like, I don't know any
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: of these songs.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: I have not listened to any of these songs.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Even if I don't speak perfect Spanish, I would not this.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: These would not be my favorite songs because I don't
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: listen to that station on the radio. And like, it
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: just made me realize I'm just old.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Well I don't know if you're old. I just think again, Like,
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: it's not the like my daughter knows the songs as
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: they are on like TikTok radio like I am. It's
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: not like she knows the you know, the a lyrics,
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: Oh dad, this is I've heard this song. I've heard it.
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: I'm like, you know, no, No, I don't know any lyrics.
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: Like so, I mean it just it just is what
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: it was. Man, And like the the back and forth
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: on social media over this, to me this week just
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: was embarrassing. It's it's so silly that the culture war
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: of the halftime show. Come on, guys, what are we doing?
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, concerts are not the most important thing going on
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: in or around our country, I promise.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: The game itself was you know, a little boring if
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: we're being honest. The commercials were lackluster. Was this a
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: successful Super Bowl? For the NFL when they look back
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: at it in two weeks.
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: The only commercial I saw was the Ring Camera one
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: where I was like, if you say comedy sabotage themselves
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: more than Ring did. Do you see that commercial.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: Where it says you can they can like they can
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: like find your dog for you or whatever.
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so they basically have official recognition software that's easily accessible. Yeah.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: So they're basically Ring Camera admitting to the entire world
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: we're tracking your movements, which.
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, I guess in theory you should have maybe
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: already suspected they could do that, right, Like they didn't
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: feel like something that, but now they put it out
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: there and you're like, ah, all right, Raing, well, good
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: good luck on that on that. I don't want you
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: any commercial the Super Bowl. You have good ones, gonna
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: have bad ones. Man. I thought it was fine, you know,
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: like it was to me. It felt like one of
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: those games that wasn't the defensive game that was good
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: because the defense has played well. It wasn't a situation
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: where both quarterbacks were so bad that the defense was good,
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: if that makes sense, right, Like we saw high level
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: defensive played from really both sides, and so it was
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: to me. Yeah, the fireworks might not have been there offensively,
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: but it wasn't bad because both offenses stunck right like
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: just it was just both defens were really good.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: This is going to be a relatively thin quarterback draft,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: at least at the top. So what position is going
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: to fill in the blanks? Where like, you know, there's
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: an extra four quarterbacks, usually position is gonna benefit.
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: It feels like a meat potatoes drift. Actually feels like
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: an off the ball linebacker. There's a lot off the
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: ball linebackers that might be you know, near the top
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: of the first round. It's not not a lot of
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: first round off of the tackles this year, but there's
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: gould be lot. I think there's gonna be ten to
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: twelve to fifteen guy draft the first don have first
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: round grades, but it's a mean potatoes draft. Man, defensive linemen, linebackers,
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: you know, some materier offensive linemen. Running backs feel very
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: strong in this class. It feels like that that type
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: of year.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: All right, we're fat, five minutes past the time.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I've gotta go pick up my son
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: A right, bye, buddy, Thanks Jeff Schwartz
