2:46
Speaker 1: to you. Visit expresspros dot com, get support, get options,
2:51
Speaker 1: and get to work. So our lead story this hour
2:55
Speaker 1: from the Commonwealth, where Patriots coach Mike was asked about
3:02
Speaker 1: you know who, Yeah, you see this. It's been a while.
3:06
Speaker 1: We'd like to circle back to one of our favorite
3:09
Speaker 1: scandals of the NFL offseason. So Mike Rabel was asked
3:12
Speaker 1: about the counseling wink wink that he underwent following the
3:19
Speaker 1: very public canoodling with the disgraced former NFL insider Diana Russini,
3:26
Speaker 1: who had a really great job and now longer no
3:29
Speaker 1: longer has that great job. Anyway, So if you didn't
3:31
Speaker 1: hear about this, perhaps perhaps not remember that Mike Rabel
3:38
Speaker 1: when he when he took a break from the draft,
3:40
Speaker 1: it was like the I think it was like the
3:41
Speaker 1: third day of the draft. Nobody cares about that, nobody
3:44
Speaker 1: watches it, who cares, It's irrelevant, And so he didn't
3:47
Speaker 1: show up to that because of counseling. He was getting
3:51
Speaker 1: a counseling session. And I think we can all agree.
3:54
Speaker 1: I mean, that's tremendous punishment. How do you how do
3:58
Speaker 1: you deal with that? It's just a terrible thing. So
4:02
Speaker 1: a reporter specifically asked Mike Rabel, the Pats coach, what
4:07
Speaker 1: he learned from that counseling and how he balanced that
4:13
Speaker 1: personal commitment with preparing for the season in an intense
4:16
Speaker 1: counseling session that took place. Now, Rabel, of course, did
4:20
Speaker 1: not directly answer to the wildebeast in the room. He
4:25
Speaker 1: did not did not answer about what he learned or
4:29
Speaker 1: discussed the underlying reason that he went to said counseling.
4:33
Speaker 1: He didn't do any of that. Instead, he pivoted to
4:36
Speaker 1: a general message about improvement. It's all about improvement, all right.
4:42
Speaker 1: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us
4:44
Speaker 1: discuss the question. You've got Patriots coach Mike Rabel on
4:50
Speaker 1: the defense over questions about his off season marriage counseling
4:56
Speaker 1: after his lovey dovey behavior with the former NFL and
5:00
Speaker 1: Diana Russini. So how does this play out? How's all
5:03
Speaker 1: this plan out here? So I've got alphabet brand, ambassador
5:08
Speaker 1: and Pjong Yang and we will combine all all of
5:13
Speaker 1: these things together and we are going to have a
5:15
Speaker 1: big HOGI of the you know what, that's right, the gobbago,
5:20
Speaker 1: you got it right, and a side of the barbaganoosh.
5:22
Speaker 1: Now to kick off here, Mike rabel Is.
5:26
Speaker 4: You know what he needs?
5:27
Speaker 1: Somebody ought to buy him a Wiji board. Now why
5:30
Speaker 1: would he need a Wigi board? Let me tell you.
5:33
Speaker 1: He has to somehow contact on the other side across
5:38
Speaker 1: the pearly gates. He has to make contact with the
5:42
Speaker 1: sweet spirit Hollywood legend, Fred Astaire. And the reason he
5:46
Speaker 1: needs to contact Fred Astaire is to figure out some
5:50
Speaker 1: way to get tap dancing lessons. Mike frabelright, need some
5:54
Speaker 1: lessons there, because these questions are fair game. They're absolutely
5:58
Speaker 1: fair game when you are a public figure and you
6:02
Speaker 1: are tied up in the we'll call it the kissy
6:06
Speaker 1: Face kissy Face scandal with Diana Russini denying it. Of course,
6:12
Speaker 1: he denied it and covered it up, and you underwent
6:16
Speaker 1: the token token like you're playing ski ball at the arcade.
6:20
Speaker 1: Counseling in air quotes and counseling. The air quote is
6:25
Speaker 1: big enough, by the way to land a C one thirty.
6:28
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it becomes public record, So get ready
6:33
Speaker 1: as I monitor from thirty thousand feet up in the sky.
6:37
Speaker 1: Get ready, here for some alphabet alphabet soup, little alphabet soup.
6:42
Speaker 1: Because Mike Rabel bobbing and weaving, bobbing and weaving at
6:47
Speaker 1: the podium qualifies for at least a WBC belt, at
6:52
Speaker 1: least at least the WBC belt, and by the end
6:56
Speaker 1: of September he will be a Jedi man of the
7:01
Speaker 1: Sweet Science. And Vrabel will know how to continue to
7:06
Speaker 1: talk very loudly, very very loudly, and say absolutely nothing
7:12
Speaker 1: of any substance. Anything at all that is of substance
7:15
Speaker 1: will not be there. Now he has zero, zero interest,
7:18
Speaker 1: obviously in revisiting the canoodling heard round the football world.
7:23
Speaker 1: And the strategy is rather simple.
7:25
Speaker 5: Now.
7:25
Speaker 1: I know this because I'm an old school boxing guy,
7:28
Speaker 1: and if you're of a certain age, you know exactly
7:30
Speaker 1: what Mike Rabel's doing. It's called the rope adope. He's
7:34
Speaker 1: doing the rope adope. Now, what is the ropodope? You
7:36
Speaker 1: just kind of give boring answers and you don't really
7:39
Speaker 1: give a direct answer, blah blah blah blah blah blah
7:41
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, until everyone just gets bored and it's
7:45
Speaker 1: going to work. It is going to work unless there's
7:48
Speaker 1: some kind of new revelation from tabloid Nation. He's going
7:52
Speaker 1: to get away with it, right until something new drops.
7:55
Speaker 1: The NFL media industrial complex as a whole will eventually
8:01
Speaker 1: put this Mike Rabel story in a cardboard box. They
8:06
Speaker 1: will tape it with that office depot tape. They will
8:10
Speaker 1: then shove it into the attic and it'll become a
8:14
Speaker 1: playground for spiders to crawl around on. And that's it,
8:18
Speaker 1: and that's where it's going to go. And everyone just pretend,
8:22
Speaker 1: you know, nobody's ever saw Mike Rabel playing tonsil hockey
8:25
Speaker 1: with Diana Russini in the first place. We'll just move on,
8:28
Speaker 1: all right. Now. Furthermore to Indianapolis we go, where the
8:33
Speaker 1: Colts have decided they're going to start Anthony Richardson and
8:36
Speaker 1: their preseason opener against the New England football team out
8:40
Speaker 1: about that, oh well, who cares about them? I care?
8:43
Speaker 1: Let me explain why, all right. So they plan on
8:46
Speaker 1: playing him the entire first half. And this is a
8:50
Speaker 1: capital a audition, not for the Colts, mind you, It
8:54
Speaker 1: is an audition for thirty one other teams. That's what
8:59
Speaker 1: this is now? He has been splitting he being Anthony Richardson,
9:01
Speaker 1: has been splitting reps, second team reps with Riley Leonard,
9:06
Speaker 1: second team reps with Riley Leonard, and has even worked
9:11
Speaker 1: with the third team for Indianapolis. And Richardson requested a
9:16
Speaker 1: trade this offseason. He wanted to enter the transfer portal
9:19
Speaker 1: after the Colts signed Daniel Jones, and they said, we're
9:23
Speaker 1: not going to give you the fifth year options. So
9:24
Speaker 1: the question, can you make sense of what's happening the
9:30
Speaker 1: evolving story around Anthony Richardson as he continues to wear
9:34
Speaker 1: that horseshoe logo there in Indianapolis. So Anthony Richardson's career
9:40
Speaker 1: is right now. It's parked on the side of a street.
9:44
Speaker 1: And if you look at the street sign, if you
9:45
Speaker 1: you might need your glasses. If you look at the
9:48
Speaker 1: street sign, it says Struggle Street. It says Struggle Street.
9:51
Speaker 1: So he's parked on Struggle Street and the hazards are
9:55
Speaker 1: blinking uh. And he's waiting for a tow truck from
9:59
Speaker 1: Triple A, waiting for a tow truck to come help.
10:01
Speaker 1: Not now the beginning of the end, we know exactly.
10:04
Speaker 1: People talk about the big bang theory and when the
10:07
Speaker 1: universe started, well, we know when the universe went kurvefully.
10:11
Speaker 1: For Anthony Richardson the beginning of the end. Was that
10:14
Speaker 1: day a couple of years ago when he said, tap tap,
10:17
Speaker 1: I'm out see you losers. He tapped out of a
10:21
Speaker 1: game in the middle of a game against the Texans
10:27
Speaker 1: because he was tired. Oh I'm tired.
10:33
Speaker 4: Now.
10:33
Speaker 1: How would the NFL work if every player who was
10:35
Speaker 1: slightly tired said I'm gonna take some plays off here,
10:38
Speaker 1: I'm a little a little tired. Would you have a product?
10:41
Speaker 1: Imagine a lot of you boys have very physical jobs.
10:44
Speaker 1: We've got people working at ports taking giant containers off
10:48
Speaker 1: massive ships and moving them around. And a lot of
10:51
Speaker 1: you guys get up earlier. You have construction jobs, physical
10:54
Speaker 1: labor jobs. One of our guys in Boston fixing bridges.
10:59
Speaker 1: Imagine if you said, yeah, I just don't feel great today,
11:01
Speaker 1: I take a little time off, and you did that
11:04
Speaker 1: on you can't do it. Certainly in the NFL you
11:06
Speaker 1: played once a week, Like, what are you doing? He
11:10
Speaker 1: tapped out. That is a capital offense. In that world,
11:14
Speaker 1: you don't voluntarily remove yourself from competition because you need
11:20
Speaker 1: some gatorade and a breather. You know, you can't unring
11:24
Speaker 1: the bell. You cannot do it. Indianapolis benched him, which
11:28
Speaker 1: was the right move. He then requested a trade. And
11:32
Speaker 1: how embarrassing is this? He's like, this guy was a
11:35
Speaker 1: top five pick in the NFL draft. The guy requests
11:37
Speaker 1: the trade, and the NFL just kind of shrugged. He said,
11:42
Speaker 1: what do you want me to do? And the GM
11:44
Speaker 1: saw the tape around the NFL. He looked at the
11:47
Speaker 1: tape of Anthony Richardson and okay, he was auditioning on
11:53
Speaker 1: the tape to be a brand ambassador for Sleep number.
11:57
Speaker 1: Well that doesn't really work. I mean, that's that's not great.
12:02
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah he's brand ambassador for Sleep number and
12:04
Speaker 1: all that. Now he was overdrafted. We can we all?
12:08
Speaker 1: I mean, does anyone not? Maybe his mom and dad
12:10
Speaker 1: or his cousins don't think he was overdrafted. Everyone else
12:13
Speaker 1: like overdrafted. I think it was the fourth overall pick
12:15
Speaker 1: if I remember correctly. And God God blessed the late
12:18
Speaker 1: great Jim Mercy, who was probably on a bender. I
12:20
Speaker 1: had a fever dream. That was his fever dream era
12:23
Speaker 1: Jim Irsay, And I thought, oh man, pure upside, pixie dust.
12:26
Speaker 1: It's all gonna work out, It's all gonna be great
12:28
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. And how'd that work out? Well,
12:31
Speaker 1: don't ask, but yeah, so didn't work out, And people say, well,
12:37
Speaker 1: he can still be a franchise quarterback. There's always those
12:40
Speaker 1: cock eyed optimists right the bleeding hearts says, Oh, he's
12:43
Speaker 1: going to be a franchise quarterback. You just wait and see.
12:46
Speaker 1: So I am going to be Benny bright Side. Don't
12:49
Speaker 1: do it, Malard, I'm gonna be Benny bright Side. I too.
12:52
Speaker 1: I truly believe that Anthony Richardson can, indeed become a
12:58
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback, not here in America but north of the border.
13:05
Speaker 1: So I have a dream, not like Martin Luther king
13:07
Speaker 1: Iver a dream. Can we get the Saskatchewan Roughriders, my
13:13
Speaker 1: favorite CFL team, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, and the Montreal
13:16
Speaker 1: Alowitz will even let the BC Lions come in if
13:19
Speaker 1: they want and play around, Robin around, Robin rock paper
13:24
Speaker 1: scissors for the services of Anthony Richardson in the Canadian
13:28
Speaker 1: Football League. And make sure, because this is about Anthony Richardson,
13:33
Speaker 1: make it a not a best of seven or a
13:36
Speaker 1: best of five, or even a best of three. Make
13:39
Speaker 1: it a best of one. Make it why would you
13:42
Speaker 1: make it the best of one? We don't want anyone
13:44
Speaker 1: getting tired. We don't want them getting tired. All right,
13:48
Speaker 1: last thing to New York, a staple of sports talk
13:53
Speaker 1: radio this time of the year, has happened yet again,
13:55
Speaker 1: and yet again, yet again. So we have a gaggle
13:57
Speaker 1: of NFL games tomorrow. The real beginning of these exhibition
14:00
Speaker 1: games is tomorrow, and this weekend everyone's playing, right, everyone's playing.
14:06
Speaker 1: And so we go to New York where Jets coach
14:08
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn said that all of his starters, every one
14:12
Speaker 1: of his starters is going to play in their exhibition
14:14
Speaker 1: Friday they play the Buccaneers, So Friday is the Buccaneer
14:18
Speaker 1: matchup with but when they get together, throw out the
14:21
Speaker 1: records now. Glenn said that the starters he anticipates a
14:25
Speaker 1: play somewhere around thirty total preseason game snaps per starter
14:29
Speaker 1: that is spread across three exhibition games, which is really
14:32
Speaker 1: only two. Usually they don't play the last exhibition game,
14:34
Speaker 1: so it's really only two. So the workload philosophy of
14:39
Speaker 1: the latest in battle. Jets coach Aaron Glenn is they're
14:45
Speaker 1: bragging about it. I was reading about this. The Jets
14:46
Speaker 1: are bragging. Oh, it's all about sports science and we
14:49
Speaker 1: know everything and all that, because when you think sports science,
14:52
Speaker 1: you think of the Jets. You think of the Jets. Right,
14:54
Speaker 1: I'd rather have someone working on planes take care of
14:58
Speaker 1: that for the Jets anyway. So that's the deal that
15:01
Speaker 1: they we're bragging about that. The controversy is obviously the gamble,
15:05
Speaker 1: and this is the age old debate we have every
15:08
Speaker 1: exhibition season in the NFL Is it worth the gamble?
15:12
Speaker 1: And on cue a number of bloviating and typing dufases.
15:22
Speaker 1: We're freaking out, Like there are people that actually care
15:25
Speaker 1: about this so much they lose their marbles. They're so
15:29
Speaker 1: freaked out. Oh, the Jets can't play their starters. What
15:32
Speaker 1: if one of their starters gets hurt? That would be
15:34
Speaker 1: sold by a right So question quick, right? The question
15:38
Speaker 1: is coach Aaron Glenn is coach Aaron Glenn taking an
15:42
Speaker 1: unnecessary risk by playing the Jets starters in these exhibitions.
15:47
Speaker 1: This is some other teams doing this too. We're gonna
15:49
Speaker 1: focus on the Jets for this. So there's a philosophy.
15:54
Speaker 1: I think you're supposed to. You can't coach scared. You
15:57
Speaker 1: can't really do much scared. Like, if you're scared all
16:00
Speaker 1: the time, you're gonna have a tough life. It's gonna
16:02
Speaker 1: be a hard life for you. You know what I'm saying.
16:04
Speaker 1: And last I checked, and I went back and I
16:06
Speaker 1: looked at the depth chart, and I noticed I didn't
16:09
Speaker 1: see Patrick Mahomes. I didn't see Josh Allen or Lamar
16:13
Speaker 1: Jackson or Matthew Stafford or even Joe Burrow. Didn't see
16:17
Speaker 1: any of those guys on the depth chart. Have you
16:20
Speaker 1: looked at the Jets depth chart? Have you done that? Yeah,
16:23
Speaker 1: if you want to laugh, it's pretty funny. It's funny
16:25
Speaker 1: in the most comedians these days to look at the Jets
16:27
Speaker 1: dep cart depth chart. So there isn't a single player
16:30
Speaker 1: that I looked at on the Jets roster who is
16:33
Speaker 1: worth investing bubble wrap to put around said player. There's
16:39
Speaker 1: not one. And so this is the definition of a
16:43
Speaker 1: team of players that have to earn their stripes and
16:46
Speaker 1: the entire roster is a toxic stew of question mark
16:51
Speaker 1: has beens never weres failed draft picks headlined by the
16:57
Speaker 1: King Turnberger, Geno Smith's a man that allowed the Raiders
17:01
Speaker 1: to get the top pick in the draft and then
17:03
Speaker 1: draft a quarterback that should have been a fourth or
17:05
Speaker 1: a fifth round pick with the top pick because they
17:08
Speaker 1: didn't want to miss out. Fear of Fomo, right, fear
17:10
Speaker 1: of Fomo. Anyway, Gino Smith the dream maker at quarterback.
17:14
Speaker 1: If you're trying to suck and tank who at this stage,
17:21
Speaker 1: We're pretty sure Gino Smith should be hosting one of
17:23
Speaker 1: those annoying jock podcasts sponsored by some testosterone clinic somewhere
17:31
Speaker 1: instead of masquerading as a QB one. Now, last year's offense,
17:36
Speaker 1: the Jets offense was practically a human rights violation. Trying
17:39
Speaker 1: to watch the Jets play offense. No Gino wasn't there,
17:41
Speaker 1: that's fine. And yet the mister softies in the media,
17:46
Speaker 1: they're treating Aaron Glenn like he's running a pyeung Yang
17:50
Speaker 1: sweatshop because he's going to have starters play in the
17:54
Speaker 1: exhibition season just for giving these guys some reps in
17:58
Speaker 1: a game environment. And it's football. It's football is what
18:05
Speaker 1: it is here. You're not doing synchronized swimming in the Olympics.
18:09
Speaker 1: You're doing football. And if grown ass men making millions
18:14
Speaker 1: of dollars cannot survive thirty preseason snaps in August, you
18:20
Speaker 1: might want to update your resume. I recommend going to
18:23
Speaker 1: Express pros Professionals. We'll have a live read for Express
18:27
Speaker 1: coming up in a few and go go do that,
18:30
Speaker 1: or go to the go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium
18:33
Speaker 1: there and sell postcards. They have a gift shop there.
18:36
Speaker 1: You can sell postcards, other nick naxles, little key chains,
18:40
Speaker 1: the dolphin keychain pretty cool. They have the whale keychains.
18:43
Speaker 1: That's kind of neat. You know that doesn't just go
18:45
Speaker 1: right to a landfill that doesn't know not at all.
18:48
Speaker 1: It is the Bay mallor show. If you'd like to
18:50
Speaker 1: be part join us right now. I got a line open.
18:52
Speaker 1: Why do I have a lineupen? I never have a
18:54
Speaker 1: line open this hour? Why do I have a line
18:55
Speaker 1: open eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox? Must be
18:59
Speaker 1: because because of the planets all lining up today. We
19:02
Speaker 1: heard from our astrology insider earlier. The planets are all
19:05
Speaker 1: lined up so many many times over the years, I
19:09
Speaker 1: have done rants about teams tanking, and almost universally, when
19:13
Speaker 1: I do a rant like that, I either get an
19:15
Speaker 1: email or some JABBRONI calls me up and says, you know,
19:17
Speaker 1: there is no such thing as tanking, Ben, It's a
19:20
Speaker 1: media creation. The teams don't actually tank. Literally, almost every
19:24
Speaker 1: time I bring that issue up, somebody says to me
19:27
Speaker 1: via email or calls in and say or on X
19:30
Speaker 1: Not that I checked that very often, but they'll say, hey, listen,
19:33
Speaker 1: you know it's bogus. These teams are billion dollar teams.

22:33
Speaker 1: a plus on the top of the hour hour four
22:37
Speaker 1: a block Mala monologue regarding Mike Rabel, Did any of
22:40
Speaker 1: the insiders ask the address in Sedona? If nothing else,
22:46
Speaker 1: the specific site could also help both the local economy
22:50
Speaker 1: and the douchebags who can afford to go there and
22:54
Speaker 1: have some canoeing. Uh yeah, well we know the name
22:57
Speaker 1: of the place. It's on the internet. It's not not
23:00
Speaker 1: like it's hidden, so if you want to go there.
23:03
Speaker 1: I don't enter into that kind of thing, Michael. It
23:06
Speaker 1: Sidona's beautiful. I haven't been there in years, but that
23:09
Speaker 1: northern Arizona is a really, really nice place, really really nice.
23:15
Speaker 1: It's much much different than the obviously the lower part
23:18
Speaker 1: actually green trees and things like this. Beautiful, absolutely great.
23:22
Speaker 1: Who's your bill?
23:22
Speaker 5: Right?
23:23
Speaker 1: Since has been apologies, I am just tuning in now,
23:26
Speaker 1: but I can already hear that the broadcast you're doing
23:29
Speaker 1: is more scintillating than a night out with Marv Albert.
23:33
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. I'm not sure that's more
23:36
Speaker 1: more and more exciting anyway. So I've got a lot
23:40
Speaker 1: of messages over the years every time I do my rant.
23:42
Speaker 1: It happened like two or three times a year, like
23:44
Speaker 1: oh there's a tank tankan tag gag. I think the
23:47
Speaker 1: Cardinals are tank gang this year, they're trying to get
23:50
Speaker 1: arch Manning because whether Arch Manning is good or not
23:53
Speaker 1: in the NFL, he will be definitely good for the
23:56
Speaker 1: losers on Madison Avenue. The people that buy advertising will
24:00
Speaker 1: line up to buy spots and buy you know, it'll
24:02
Speaker 1: be up. The Cardinals will be a relevant team if
24:04
Speaker 1: they get arch many even if he sucks good, bad
24:07
Speaker 1: or ugly, they'll still be relevant. So they're trying to
24:10
Speaker 1: get him. It's a business. I bring this up be
24:14
Speaker 1: cause for a couple of years we pointed out the
24:17
Speaker 1: San Antonio Spurs were built on tanking, all right, built
24:21
Speaker 1: ante They tanked to get the Parisian prodigy Wemby. So
24:26
Speaker 1: the general manager of the Spurs, this guy you know who?
24:29
Speaker 1: I believe his name is Brian Wright. So is it
24:34
Speaker 1: true that the San Antonio Spurs GM, trying to be
24:38
Speaker 1: braggadocious admitted admitted that San Antonio tanked, said the quiet
24:47
Speaker 1: part out loud to get Victor Wembanyama, the number one
24:53
Speaker 1: overall pick in twenty And believe it or not, it's
24:57
Speaker 1: tied into an NFL show. This when all the worlds collide.
25:01
Speaker 1: So during your appearance on HBO's Hard Knocks, the Spurs
25:04
Speaker 1: general manager discussed the long term planning the organize a
25:09
Speaker 1: Sean had once they identified that wem Ba Yama was
25:15
Speaker 1: an all time great. So Brian Wright said that the
25:19
Speaker 1: CEO of the Spurs determined that wemban Yama, this guy
25:23
Speaker 1: RC Buford determined that whom Ba Yama was potentially the
25:26
Speaker 1: greatest player he had ever seen when he was about
25:29
Speaker 1: sixteen years old, and then delivered the line on on
25:36
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks. Twelve months later, we put a plan. This
25:39
Speaker 1: is a quote we put a plan into motion to
25:41
Speaker 1: turn the team over and have the chance to draft him. Wow,
25:48
Speaker 1: there it is right there, and that's on on hard knocks,
25:51
Speaker 1: and that is you talk about. You talk about punishment. Now,
25:55
Speaker 1: the NBA is likely not going to do anything, but
25:57
Speaker 1: they have punished a bunch of teams for tanking, and
26:00
Speaker 1: it's kind of out in the open. Everyone and their
26:02
Speaker 1: uncle who has any kind of critical thinking realizes that
26:07
Speaker 1: the Spurs franchise is just a tank franchise. They're not
26:10
Speaker 1: They're not anything more than a team that tanks. They
26:11
Speaker 1: tanked for David Robinson, they tanked for Tim Duncan, now
26:15
Speaker 1: they've tanked for one By Yama. That's what they do.
26:18
Speaker 1: That's how they operate. They're unethical, that's how they operate.
26:21
Speaker 1: Tank tank tank tank tank tank tank. In that wild
26:25
Speaker 1: of all the things just popping up, like what are
26:30
Speaker 1: you even doing there? Everyone, you know, they love the brag.
26:34
Speaker 1: Everyone loves to brag about their situation and what's going on.
26:38
Speaker 1: And the Parisian Prodigy is all that and here you
26:42
Speaker 1: so do with that what you want, do with that
26:44
Speaker 1: what you want. But the Seahawks head coach Mike McDonald
26:47
Speaker 1: and the Spurs coach Mick Mick Johnson. They talked about leadership,
26:52
Speaker 1: you know, all that bull crap these guys talk about.
26:54
Speaker 1: And then this came up, and all right, to the phone, sophons, sylphones,
26:59
Speaker 1: I do need my contestants, coop, hang up online, hang
27:04
