1:11
Speaker 1: All of our video is up on this little site
1:15
Speaker 1: called Netflix. It's an app. I don't know if you've
1:17
Speaker 1: ever heard of it, but all of our video up
1:19
Speaker 1: on Netflix. Appreciate everyone that win. Check that out. Watch
1:21
Speaker 1: is there, and I think we're doing pretty good. So
1:25
Speaker 1: we'll just keep fired and let's talk some football. You
1:29
Speaker 1: know there was David Montgomery was traded today to the
1:33
Speaker 1: running back for the Detroit Lions was traded to the
1:35
Speaker 1: Houston Texas, which I like to pick up. I think
1:38
Speaker 1: everyone's kind of waiting right now on some news. One thing,
1:42
Speaker 1: Howie and Spy Tech are doing a pretty good job
1:45
Speaker 1: of at least by the time you're listening to this.
1:48
Speaker 1: It may there may be some stories, but there haven't been.
1:53
Speaker 1: Like you know, how he has two offers on the
1:55
Speaker 1: table for a first and a third Spy Tech, the
1:58
Speaker 1: best offer he has so far right now is a first,
2:01
Speaker 1: a second, and a fourth. Right that there hasn't really
2:04
Speaker 1: been any of that with Max Crosby and AJ Brown,
2:07
Speaker 1: which all signs point to. I think those guys getting traded,
2:12
Speaker 1: but it's they did a pretty good job of keeping
2:16
Speaker 1: under wraps, which I think shows you you know this
2:19
Speaker 1: notion I was wrong about this, and this is what
2:21
Speaker 1: I found out of the combine. He goes like AJ
2:23
Speaker 1: Brown a lot internally as a player, like they don't
2:29
Speaker 1: view him as some problem child. Now he's emotional, but
2:33
Speaker 1: it's not viewed this notion of like they're all on
2:36
Speaker 1: the one guy side. They got a lot of love
2:39
Speaker 1: for AJ Brown. So if you're gonna want AJ Brown
2:41
Speaker 1: to be on your football team, it is going to
2:44
Speaker 1: be an expensive endeavor to trade for him. I think
2:46
Speaker 1: Albert Breer wrote today in his SI articles that like,
2:50
Speaker 1: if you're gonna get AJ Brown, they ain't giving him away.
2:53
Speaker 1: And I originally where I was wrong. I thought, well,
2:55
Speaker 1: I'll be like a third round pick. No, they would
2:57
Speaker 1: never trade him for a third round pick, trading for
3:00
Speaker 1: our first Yeah, I mean they traded a first forum.
3:03
Speaker 1: So it's basically be like, you got to use AJ Brown,
3:06
Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl and then get rid of them
3:07
Speaker 1: for the same price. Okay, let's start with Gene. Absolutely
3:10
Speaker 1: love the pod. I appreciate it. Keep out the good
3:12
Speaker 1: work with Jack. Need some words of encouragement. It's been
3:16
Speaker 1: he's got the sniffles today, so it's been rough. We'll
3:18
Speaker 1: probably talk about that the Dad Diaries. Maybe I'll do
3:21
Speaker 1: the Dad Diaries in the middle of this mail bag.
3:24
Speaker 1: On the Super Bowl, I think the players that win
3:27
Speaker 1: it get one hundred and eighty eight K and the
3:29
Speaker 1: losers get one hundred and thirty three K. Shares are
3:33
Speaker 1: pittance compared to the financial normandy in the Super Bowl.
3:36
Speaker 1: The players and the teams are the main attraction, and
3:39
Speaker 1: the NFL puts out zero money for the halftime show.
3:42
Speaker 1: Your thoughts the halftime show. What you get in return
3:47
Speaker 1: has proven to be well worth doing fifteen to twenty minutes.
3:52
Speaker 1: It isn't even that long for any artist, whatever genre
3:56
Speaker 1: you're in, it is well worth it to do that
3:58
Speaker 1: thing for free because of the amount of people that
4:01
Speaker 1: watch you. Now, the players, I remember Richard Sherman telling
4:04
Speaker 1: me this before when he was still playing. We were
4:07
Speaker 1: dming and he was part of, you know, the player
4:11
Speaker 1: union group that was negotiating against the owners. And one
4:16
Speaker 1: thing was we were talking about the playoffs salaries. If
4:21
Speaker 1: you're a player, you're making twenty million or thirty million
4:23
Speaker 1: or hell ten million, you make, you take a huge
4:27
Speaker 1: pay cut in the playoffs. Yet we see these playoff ratings.
4:31
Speaker 1: Twenty five thirty forty million people watch the first round.
4:34
Speaker 1: By the time we get to the championship games, you
4:37
Speaker 1: have fifty million people watching. So you could argue they
4:41
Speaker 1: are getting completely scammed on the playoffs now a little
4:44
Speaker 1: bit like the halftime show. You you get value as
4:49
Speaker 1: a player from the playoffs, right turned out, my ace's
4:54
Speaker 1: a little hot in near It's like ninety degrees to day.
4:58
Speaker 1: Is if you win in January, you up the value
5:03
Speaker 1: of yourself as a player, But you are still taking
5:05
Speaker 1: a calculated risk because if you get injured in the
5:09
Speaker 1: second round of the playoffs and your contract is up,
5:12
Speaker 1: or you don't have any guaranteed money, like you're kind
5:15
Speaker 1: of shit out of luck. You're taking risks that other
5:18
Speaker 1: guys that are at home are just simply not taking.
5:21
Speaker 1: So I've thought this for a long time. How the
5:25
Speaker 1: players union doesn't fight for more money in these playoff games, where,
5:29
Speaker 1: like you said, they are worth a ton of money.
5:33
Speaker 1: Congrats on all the new success. Do you think the
5:35
Speaker 1: new blueprint of a successful Super Bowl winning team is
5:39
Speaker 1: quarterback on a discount or rookie contract with a great defense.
5:43
Speaker 1: It seems over the last few years this has been
5:46
Speaker 1: the trend and the best way to go about building
5:48
Speaker 1: a contender. The Chiefs route liars, but they paid everybody.
5:52
Speaker 1: Now the defense and the offense is not strong. So
5:55
Speaker 1: the question is really well, teams continue to pay sixty
5:58
Speaker 1: million dollars a year to a quarterback or or trade
6:02
Speaker 1: and try to find one every four years. Whenever you
6:07
Speaker 1: have a top guy, you're never gonna trade him. I
6:09
Speaker 1: think the problem teams have made is paying like twoas
6:12
Speaker 1: making fifty five million dollars this year, Like that is
6:18
Speaker 1: I don't even know the proper adjective to describe how
6:21
Speaker 1: crazy that is. I mean, that's even when he was
6:24
Speaker 1: decent a couple of years ago. It's like he should
6:26
Speaker 1: have been relative to the other quarterbacks. Why do you
6:29
Speaker 1: get to match the previous quarterbacks? Like if Josh Allen signs,
6:33
Speaker 1: if Lamar signs, if Herbert signs, if some of these guys,
6:37
Speaker 1: if Dak Prescott signs, why does TUA get to match them? Okay,
6:40
Speaker 1: you sign, Like why do you get to make a
6:44
Speaker 1: percentage of what they made, you know, in terms of
6:47
Speaker 1: like one to one? Why not?
6:49
Speaker 2: Like yeah, you probably you know they're making forty five fifty,
6:53
Speaker 2: We'll offer you twenty two.
6:55
Speaker 1: Like whatever happened to that world? It happens in basically
6:58
Speaker 1: every other industry, but for whatever reason, with quarterbacks, it
7:04
Speaker 1: not only stopped happening that these contracts got way out
7:07
Speaker 1: of whack that you see this Kyler Intua situation that
7:10
Speaker 1: are complete anchors and disasters for their franchisees. So I listen,
7:15
Speaker 1: you got to sign a quarterback when he's good on
7:17
Speaker 1: your own team. But like the Texans, they're not giving CJ.
7:21
Speaker 1: Stroud a contract since this offseason because they don't know
7:25
Speaker 1: if he's good enough now next year if he proves it,
7:29
Speaker 1: maybe next offseason. But like, what about playing it out?
7:31
Speaker 1: Pick up a fifty year option? Like's the what's the
7:34
Speaker 1: impatience by all these teams? I don't understand the lack
7:39
Speaker 1: of patience with these quarterback contracts. I never have and
7:43
Speaker 1: never will. You have nothing but patience with every other position. Yeah,
7:47
Speaker 1: with quarterback, it's like, oh, Kyler Murray three years in
7:50
Speaker 1: the league, give him a hundred and fifty million dollars, Like,
7:52
Speaker 1: are we sure? Has he ever won a playoff game?
7:55
Speaker 2: No?
7:55
Speaker 1: Has he ever won the division? No? You had like
7:57
Speaker 1: a great ten games? Great would be strong? You get
7:59
Speaker 1: a good ten game stretch. I think how crazy that
8:02
Speaker 1: is because two threw some touchdowns and September and October.
8:06
Speaker 1: I just think it's bad business. It's just bad business.
8:10
Speaker 1: What about Al Davis on Collins Show. I heard you
8:14
Speaker 1: talk about Howie and Schneider have gone to the Super
8:17
Speaker 1: Bowl with different coaches and quarterback combos, But you forgot
8:21
Speaker 1: to mention Al Davis and he did it with four
8:25
Speaker 1: different coach and quarterback combos. Uh, maybe well before my time.
8:30
Speaker 1: But he's only got three Super Bowls, right, He's got
8:33
Speaker 1: the one with Madden in the seventies, He's got one
8:36
Speaker 1: with Plunket and one with Flores Or were they both
8:39
Speaker 1: with plunk It a little before my time born in
8:42
Speaker 1: eighty four. I know Plunkett was would they win eighty
8:47
Speaker 1: two and eighty seven or something? I don't know. I'm
8:51
Speaker 1: a little out of it, but I thought it was
8:54
Speaker 1: was plunk at the quarterback for both. Could be wrong
8:57
Speaker 1: on that one. Also, I just Howie and Onsider are
9:00
Speaker 1: the GMS. I mean, Al Davis owned the team, so
9:04
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. To me. Al's comp is
9:07
Speaker 1: like Jerry Jones or Paul Brown, like he was the owner,
9:11
Speaker 1: coached a little bit, uh personnel guy. I wouldn't compare
9:16
Speaker 1: Al Davis to Howie Rose. Al Davis signed the checks.
9:20
Speaker 1: How he doesn't sign the checks. Jeffrey does so it's
9:22
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying, but I don't think it's
9:25
Speaker 1: like an apples and apples comparison. Hear me out, Why
9:29
Speaker 1: is Nick Sirianni criticizing here? Why is Nick Sirianna criticized?
9:37
Speaker 1: But Harrorboss celebrated both of o elite gms, great players
9:41
Speaker 1: picked by those gms, elite coordinators, great ownership. But Nick
9:44
Speaker 1: is always laughed at and John is celebrated. It's a
9:50
Speaker 1: great question. I mean, I think there's a branding thing
9:53
Speaker 1: with the Harrboss. When you look and think and talk
9:56
Speaker 1: about the Harrballs, you think kind of football royalty. So
9:59
Speaker 1: I think that's part of it. I think John has
10:03
Speaker 1: done it longer. John's had multiple GMS technically because Ozzie retired,
10:08
Speaker 1: and he's had DaCosta for a while. I tried to
10:10
Speaker 1: talk to DaCosta, but you know, he's a little cold,
10:13
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't really have many ends or a
10:15
Speaker 1: way to start conversation. And as someone told me, he's
10:18
Speaker 1: not a huge bullshitter, and we didn't bullshit. There wasn't
10:22
Speaker 1: really any I just tried to start a conversation. Cassario,
10:25
Speaker 1: who's pretty serious, too easy to talk to, DaCosta was not,
10:30
Speaker 1: which he's a good GM. I mean, he knows what
10:32
Speaker 1: he's doing, so I don't know, that's a great question.
10:35
Speaker 1: Sirianni's done it a lot, like I mean, Harbaugh coach
10:38
Speaker 1: for eighteen years. If Sirianni goes on to have his
10:41
Speaker 1: career for eighteen years with the Philadelphia Eagles, he will get,
10:46
Speaker 1: as the kids would say, mad flowers. But I think
10:49
Speaker 1: that's part of it, the branding thing. If his name
10:51
Speaker 1: was Nick Harbaugh and he was like the step brother
10:55
Speaker 1: of those guys Jack had like some you know, some
10:58
Speaker 1: affair and had and had Nick in Ohio like in
11:02
Speaker 1: the eighties, I think we would probably discuss him differently.
11:06
Speaker 1: I think that's fair. Congrats on your baby boy. Welcome
11:13
Speaker 1: to the old dad's club. I'm forty with a two
11:16
Speaker 1: year old of my own. We're not old now, but
11:19
Speaker 1: when our boys are in middle school, will be in
11:21
Speaker 1: our fifties, and you know, he'll have a classmate with
11:24
Speaker 1: a thirty year old dad, but he'll be a deadbeat
11:27
Speaker 1: with a neck tattoo. I'm not worried about that guy.
11:30
Speaker 1: But there'll also be a thirty three year old, good
11:31
Speaker 1: looking dad with a shit together making seven figures. Fuck that, dude.
11:37
Speaker 1: You know what's funny is I don't necessarily think like
11:41
Speaker 1: age in relation to my kid, in the sense of,
11:45
Speaker 1: like I don't feel I have more energy now than
11:47
Speaker 1: I did at twenty eight. I'm more willing to spend
11:51
Speaker 1: time and do things with family that I would not
11:55
Speaker 1: have been at that age. Like I was not equipped
11:57
Speaker 1: to have a kid in my twenties or even the
11:59
Speaker 1: may of my thirties. I probably could have had a
12:01
Speaker 1: kid starting around thirty five thirty six, but before that
12:05
Speaker 1: I would have been a complete disaster. There would have
12:08
Speaker 1: been an auto divorce. There would have been an auto
12:10
Speaker 1: it would not have worked, and it would have been
12:12
Speaker 1: a shitty spot for the kid. So maybe some of
12:15
Speaker 1: you guys are more mature. We all have different paths
12:17
Speaker 1: in life. But like I am completely unfazed, you know,
12:22
Speaker 1: about age when it comes to my kid. I'm an
12:25
Speaker 1: energetic motherfucker. So I you know, I got no worries
12:29
Speaker 1: about my age. But I hear what you're saying. Anyways,
12:36
Speaker 1: My question for the bag is why don't we see
12:38
Speaker 1: more tag and trades. Most teams don't use their franchise
12:42
Speaker 1: tag and let solid players walk for nothing. I feel
12:44
Speaker 1: like it used to happen a lot more because I
12:47
Speaker 1: think if you tag a guy one, if I tag
12:50
Speaker 1: a guy, I haven't even seen all the concrete tag numbers.
12:54
Speaker 1: But if I tag a guy for thirty million dollars
12:57
Speaker 1: that first day of free agency, thirty million dollars, I
12:59
Speaker 1: have to have salary cap space for thirty million dollars.
13:02
Speaker 1: So if I'm going to tag a guy, I have
13:04
Speaker 1: to be prepared to keep the player right. So it's
13:07
Speaker 1: it's it's not really a mechanism. I'm recording this twelve
13:12
Speaker 1: hours before the franchise tag deadline. I guess you could
13:16
Speaker 1: trade the player over the course of the next week
13:19
Speaker 1: before free agency. That assumes that he signs his franchise tender.
13:23
Speaker 1: But I think it's gotten really complicated with the size
13:26
Speaker 1: of the contracts. Would be my guess. I think Howie
13:30
Speaker 1: those type guys would have more of like a concrete
13:35
Speaker 1: thought out answer. But my kind of macro view is
13:39
Speaker 1: once I tag a guy, more than likely I'm keeping
13:42
Speaker 1: him because I have a lot of the cap space,
13:44
Speaker 1: which is really really big. Even you know, Kyle Pitts,
13:50
Speaker 1: George Pickens, like you play on a fully guaranteed one
13:53
Speaker 1: year salary, Pits is cheaper than Pickens, which is which
13:56
Speaker 1: is kind of crazy. They're kind of similar players based
13:58
Speaker 1: on last year. I know they're different positions, but like
14:01
Speaker 1: Pitts is cheap because of the position he plays. But
14:04
Speaker 1: if you franchise tag a tackle or a guard, you know,
14:07
Speaker 1: or a or a pass rusher, they're pretty expensive. And
14:10
Speaker 1: obviously quarterbacks. It's why the Daniel Jones situation is kind
14:16
Speaker 1: of interesting. Question on something Grey co Sel said, no
14:20
Speaker 1: disrespect to this guy. He seems like he definitely knows
14:23
Speaker 1: what he's talking about. But saying amen, Rah does not
14:26
Speaker 1: compare to Chase or Jefferson is something I can't let slide.
14:31
Speaker 1: And the type of toughness that he plays with is
14:34
Speaker 1: something you can't teach. But not only that, the great
14:38
Speaker 1: run after catch and route runner. I don't know what
14:40
Speaker 1: is your opinion. Also, do you think Mackay Lemon is
14:44
Speaker 1: a top ten kind of prospect? If you were doing
14:49
Speaker 1: a draft with the thirty two GMS and there were
14:52
Speaker 1: three wide receivers and it was Jefferson, Chase and Amana
14:57
Speaker 1: Saint Brown, I think Jefferson Chase would be a little
15:02
Speaker 1: in the eye of beholder. Some guys would like Jefferson,
15:05
Speaker 1: some guys would like Chase. I probably prefer Chase. But
15:10
Speaker 1: talking to Jefferson at the Super Bowl, I mean, he's
15:13
Speaker 1: he's a pretty impressive guy. I Chase. His physicalities, you know,
15:16
Speaker 1: in the prime of his career is pretty unique. I mean,
15:19
Speaker 1: and I bet on him on some props in some
15:21
Speaker 1: games he's come through. But they're both elite players. I
15:25
Speaker 1: think Amorra would be last in all thirty two jams.
15:29
Speaker 1: But whoever got Amenra in that like would not be disappointed.
15:34
Speaker 1: So I don't think he's viewed as good as those guys.
15:37
Speaker 1: But what he brings to the table toughness, leadership, like
15:41
Speaker 1: you said, run after the catch. I mean, he's basically
15:44
Speaker 1: like the team leader you're or one of them for
15:47
Speaker 1: the Lions. So yeah, I have I don't think you're
15:51
Speaker 1: wrong in what you're being offended. I'm sure you're a
15:54
Speaker 1: Liance fan, but or maybe a USC fan. But he's
15:58
Speaker 1: not wrong Greg when he says those guys are better
16:01
Speaker 1: than Amen Ross Saint Brown. But Amen Ross Saint Brown.
16:04
Speaker 1: When his career is over, a statistical sheet is gonna
16:07
Speaker 1: look like fucking Jerry Rice. I mean, how many balls
16:10
Speaker 1: did you catch every year, so I hear what you're saying.
16:14
Speaker 1: The Makai I had some people say that they didn't
16:16
Speaker 1: think it was like a top twenty, top twenty five player,
16:18
Speaker 1: so I know there's some stuff going around. I haven't
16:22
Speaker 1: personally heard about his interviews. You know, there was the
16:26
Speaker 1: one clip of him talking to the media, which was
16:28
Speaker 1: a little weird. I don't know if he looked high
16:30
Speaker 1: or something, but he's definitely gonna be Some people are
16:33
Speaker 1: gonna like him and some people are gonna not like him.
16:38
Speaker 1: And when you compare to amen Ra and when you
16:40
Speaker 1: compare to Puka Nakula, those guys weren't top twenty picks.
16:45
Speaker 1: So part of what makes them so special is like
16:47
Speaker 1: where their teams got them, which kind of complicates the matter.
16:51
Speaker 1: I think this wide receiver class is kind of viewed
16:55
Speaker 1: as average at best. Today's show is brought to you

18:51
Speaker 1: Uh what, I love the pod. Been listening for years.
18:53
Speaker 1: Totally random, but I heard you mentioned peptides in one
18:56
Speaker 1: of your pods not long ago. I just started taking
18:59
Speaker 1: this one called Retaturtide, and holy shit, it's a game changer. Yeah.
19:07
Speaker 1: I officially started taking them today, so I got one.
19:11
Speaker 1: Like a part of it is I feel like I
19:13
Speaker 1: got fat. You know, I gain like probably twenty pounds
19:18
Speaker 1: over the course of the last several years. Now, some
19:20
Speaker 1: of that is my diet is not ideal, but I
19:22
Speaker 1: work out. I mean, I would say most weeks, seven
19:25
Speaker 1: days a week, and part of it, as you get older,
19:29
Speaker 1: it's just your body. I don't know, it dramatically changes.
19:33
Speaker 1: And then I had buddies my brother included, that use
19:36
Speaker 1: these things, and I'm like, this is incredible. So I
19:39
Speaker 1: was like, listen, I don't necessarily want to take a
19:41
Speaker 1: shot every day. So I went to this clinic where
19:45
Speaker 1: I got the allergy test, the food allergy test, and
19:48
Speaker 1: they have dissolvables for your mouth, so I have one
19:52
Speaker 1: that's like for your gut, health and skin and just
19:56
Speaker 1: kind of body, and then another one that's more like
19:59
Speaker 1: mu soul slash, a fat burning one. I don't have them.
20:04
Speaker 1: They're in my in the house, but I'm fired up
20:09
Speaker 1: because Jackson talked to McAfee. McAfee talks about this like
20:13
Speaker 1: he loves them. People live by him. Everyone I know
20:16
Speaker 1: that that uses them looks fantastic. I'm not a GLP
20:19
Speaker 1: one guy. I don't necessarily need GLP ones, but I
20:23
Speaker 1: just need to tighten up because it's not it's not
20:25
Speaker 1: like I don't work out. I work out all the time,
20:28
Speaker 1: and I feel like my improvement in the gym just
20:31
Speaker 1: stopped and I just got to dial in more of
20:34
Speaker 1: the diet. That's gonna be a huge point of emphasis
20:37
Speaker 1: the rest of twenty twenty six, because you know, you
20:40
Speaker 1: can outrun a bad diet, especially when you're a guy
20:43
Speaker 1: in his early forties. White guy. The Raiders are now
20:47
Speaker 1: moving to a three four based defense. While I like
20:49
Speaker 1: the move to a three to four because I feel
20:51
Speaker 1: like guys like Tyree Wilson could be naturally moved to
20:54
Speaker 1: a big three four end and Malcolm koons maybe a
20:57
Speaker 1: great outside edge. I feel like this move gets us
20:59
Speaker 1: away from Crosby. I don't see Crosby's success as a
21:03
Speaker 1: three four end, and while he's explosive when standing up,
21:07
Speaker 1: I don't think he has the hips for an outside
21:10
Speaker 1: linebacker in the three four Could the Raiders have hired
21:13
Speaker 1: Crosby's buddy as the new DC only for him to
21:17
Speaker 1: implement a defense that is not in Crosby's best interest?
21:23
Speaker 1: Is his time in Vegas really done? I would expect
21:26
Speaker 1: him to be traded, and I'm adamant. I think they
21:29
Speaker 1: get two ones from Max Crosby because of the amount
21:31
Speaker 1: of people bidding on him. But could Max Crosby play
21:34
Speaker 1: in the three four defense? I believe he could. He's
21:36
Speaker 1: not a three four D. I think he would be
21:38
Speaker 1: a stand up pass rusher. I think he could be good.
21:40
Speaker 1: I mean, James Harrison is exactly von Miller bending the edge.
21:44
Speaker 1: Ahmad Brooks, you know when he played for the forty
21:47
Speaker 1: nine Ers, like Max Crosby be good in any defense.
21:50
Speaker 1: But my expectation over the course of the next six, seven,
21:53
Speaker 1: eight days is Max Crosby is unofficially traded. So yeah,
22:00
Speaker 1: I didn't see. Honestly, I didn't even know they were
22:02
Speaker 1: running a three four defense. I think what the Raiders
22:07
Speaker 1: are gonna need to do is go all in on offense,
22:11
Speaker 1: the offensive line, the quarterback, and then figure out the
22:14
Speaker 1: defense with time in cap space. I mean they made
22:20
Speaker 1: that move. It wasn't their fault when they signed Christian
22:22
Speaker 1: Wilkins and then he messed up his knee and he
22:24
Speaker 1: was never the same. That hurt NFL draft question? How
22:28
Speaker 1: do you explain when draft analysts say things like there
22:31
Speaker 1: are only fifteen to twenty true first rounders in the
22:34
Speaker 1: NFL class, when by definition, thirty two players will go
22:38
Speaker 1: in the first round. Isn't that kind of like complaining
22:41
Speaker 1: that houses in your neighborhood are overpriced. Even if you
22:44
Speaker 1: wouldn't pay that much, someone will. That becomes the market price.
22:48
Speaker 1: I get the scouts grade players based on past drafts
22:51
Speaker 1: or quote true talent, but the end of the day,
22:54
Speaker 1: draft value is like anything in business, it's worth what
22:57
Speaker 1: someone will pay. So isn't this whole not enough first
23:01
Speaker 1: round talent thing more of an NFL scouting snob take
23:04
Speaker 1: than in a market reality? I think where you're missing
23:09
Speaker 1: the boat on the housing analogy. Let's say I've been
23:12
Speaker 1: a nice neighborhood and every house is between like two
23:16
Speaker 1: and a half and five million. Well, your five million
23:19
Speaker 1: dollar houses are gonna be nicer, right. Maybe it's a
23:22
Speaker 1: golf golfing community. Maybe your nicer houses are obviously bigger,
23:25
Speaker 1: more modern on the golf course, and some of your
23:28
Speaker 1: other ones are not on the golf course and maybe
23:30
Speaker 1: not as big. Well, if I have five million dollars
23:33
Speaker 1: to spend on a house and all the nice houses
23:37
Speaker 1: are taken, I would just wait. I might not buy
23:41
Speaker 1: one of those two and a half three million dollar
23:43
Speaker 1: homes if those are the only ones available. Well, if
23:46
Speaker 1: you are the Baltimore Raven, they're a bad example. Let's
23:49
Speaker 1: use the forty nine ers and you're picking pick twenty seven.
23:54
Speaker 1: If if you can't trade back or trade up, you
23:57
Speaker 1: have to make a selection. So in your analogy of
24:01
Speaker 1: a market, you know it's supply and demand, Well, I
24:05
Speaker 1: have to make a pick even though the guy I'm
24:08
Speaker 1: picking I don't have a first round grade on. That's
24:12
Speaker 1: what it means that in a given draft, there's twenty
24:14
Speaker 1: to fifteen guys with first round grades, but there are
24:18
Speaker 1: thirty two selections and you have to select in the twenties. Now,
24:23
Speaker 1: sometimes one of the guys that you have a first
24:25
Speaker 1: round grade on falls to you in the twenties, but
24:28
Speaker 1: you don't have a choice. There's no walk away price, right.
24:31
Speaker 1: If you have a widget supply and demand and you
24:35
Speaker 1: want me to pay X for it and I think
24:37
Speaker 1: it's worth why we won't do a transaction. If I
24:42
Speaker 1: want to sell you my computer and I say here,
24:44
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars for my computer, and you say I'm
24:48
Speaker 1: only willing to spend fifteen hundred dollars for your computer,
24:51
Speaker 1: we would not do a deal, even though you need
24:54
Speaker 1: a computer, and you would just figure out and you'd
24:56
Speaker 1: find a place to get a computer at the price
24:58
Speaker 1: you want to spend. Well, I'm at pick twenty six.
25:02
Speaker 1: I you know I can't trade back into the second round.
25:05
Speaker 1: I'm stuck making a selection. So it's it's not apples
25:10
Speaker 1: d apples that way. It's not they're not being snobby.
25:13
Speaker 1: They're simply just saying that on this given year, on average,
25:16
Speaker 1: they're nineteen players with first round grades, so they're gonna
25:20
Speaker 1: be guys that get drafted that are not viewed as
25:25
Speaker 1: their second round players. But you have to pay them
25:28
Speaker 1: a first round contract. Like. Part of the power of
25:31
Speaker 1: the first round contract is I get the fifth year option,
25:34
Speaker 1: and your contract's fully guaranteed once you get past the
25:37
Speaker 1: first round. Contracts aren't fully guaranteed for all four years.
25:42
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying, but you're not crazy or anything.
25:46
Speaker 1: It's just not snobby. They're just saying that there aren't
25:50
Speaker 1: thirty two players. Like the Chiefs when they took Clyde
25:53
Speaker 1: Edwards Laira, they didn't have a first round grade on them,
25:56
Speaker 1: but they got to pick someone at thirty two now Simmons.
26:01
Speaker 1: Last year WI win, the Chiefs take them at thirty one,
26:03
Speaker 1: they probably did have first run grade on so you
26:06
Speaker 1: just you never know year to year. I just watched
26:11
Speaker 1: Colin call the Cardinals a stinky pile of garbage and
26:14
Speaker 1: said their ownership and franchise is just as its function
26:17
Speaker 1: as the Browns Jets. I do not follow the team
26:20
Speaker 1: and live on the East Coast. Do you believe it's
26:22
Speaker 1: really bad in that building? If you're an owner, one
26:27
Speaker 1: thing that's crazy to me. In the NFL Bashat he'd
26:32
Speaker 1: probably be an outlier because he's buddies with some of
26:34
Speaker 1: these guys. But most owners don't spend that much time
26:38
Speaker 1: with the players. Hell even spend that much time with
26:41
Speaker 1: the coaches. Owners are out of sight, out of mind,
26:45
Speaker 1: just cashing them checks for the card. Now, what happens
26:49
Speaker 1: in your building is a reflection of the owner. But
26:52
Speaker 1: for the NFLPA grades that got leaked, Michael Bidwell got
26:57
Speaker 1: an F. Do you know how you have to be?
27:01
Speaker 1: It doesn't even have to be a football team if
27:03
Speaker 1: you and I just work somewhere. And for most of
27:07
Speaker 1: those people that give him an F, I would imagine
27:10
Speaker 1: they don't have like some crazy relationship with the guy.
27:13
Speaker 1: So you would be working a place and you know
27:16
Speaker 1: who owns the company and you say he's that bad
27:20
Speaker 1: to give someone an F. I think that speaks to
27:25
Speaker 1: everything you need to know is the players think that
27:29
Speaker 1: poorly of the guy that owns the team that they
27:31
Speaker 1: gave him an F Like that, to me, is very
27:34
Speaker 1: very difficult to do C minus like you get to
27:37
Speaker 1: C minus. I think you're kind of a loser as
27:39
Speaker 1: an owner at F Everyone's always said, I listen, I
27:45
Speaker 1: have never dealt with the guy all of my life.
27:48
Speaker 1: They've been viewed as a cheap franchise. It's just kind
27:51
Speaker 1: of a clown operation. I mean, if you're a Cardinal fan,
27:55
Speaker 1: you just pray to the day that he sells the team,
27:58
Speaker 1: which doesn't feel like it's happening anytimes. Loved the pot.
28:02
Speaker 1: I had a kid six months ago and absolutely lost
28:04
Speaker 1: it when you called the too many clothes for Gazi
28:08
Speaker 1: rookie mistake. Somehow they go through three outfits before noon.
28:12
Speaker 1: It is. I used to think we had too many diapers.
28:15
Speaker 1: I used to think we had too many clothes. Little
28:18
Speaker 1: Dad diaries right now, while we're on the subject, my
28:24
Speaker 1: extended family, so my brother in law, his wife, their child,
28:28
Speaker 1: my mother in law all were here last week a
28:32
Speaker 1: little before I left, and then when I was at
28:34
Speaker 1: the combine and I think their daughter was sick. I
28:37
Speaker 1: came back sick. Jack has the sniffles now and it sucks,
28:41
Speaker 1: you know, and you don't realize, which makes sense once
28:43
Speaker 1: you're around a little infant. They can't blow their nose,
28:47
Speaker 1: so there is snot in his nose and he can't
28:50
Speaker 1: blow it. So they make these tools like a suction
28:54
Speaker 1: cup type thing. Well, the one we have is too big,
28:58
Speaker 1: like his nostril isn't big enough. He also has this
29:01
Speaker 1: like plug in electrical power one that you put up
29:06
Speaker 1: his nose, press a button and it sucks. You gotta
29:09
Speaker 1: hold his head because you know he doesn't love it.
29:11
Speaker 1: But this thing was just ripping snot out of his nose.
29:16
Speaker 1: It was incredible to watch the amount because you can
29:21
Speaker 1: hear him. It's you feel so bad for him. He
29:22
Speaker 1: doesn't know how to do snot rockets. He just lost
29:26
Speaker 1: no man's land. I try to tell him. He doesn't
29:28
Speaker 1: speak English yet, so you can't tell him to breathe
29:30
Speaker 1: through his mouth. It's rough. And I got the saline
29:35
Speaker 1: thing you put over their face, and it like mists,
29:38
Speaker 1: is supposed to make clear him up a little bit.
29:41
Speaker 1: So we got all the devices going. But when you
29:43
Speaker 1: hear him just congested, you feel for the little guy
29:47
Speaker 1: because there's nothing he can do. Doesn't know you can
29:49
Speaker 1: breathe out of his mouth. He doesn't know how to
29:50
Speaker 1: blow his nose, doesn't know how to do a snot
29:53
Speaker 1: rocket beside when he sneezes and he's on your shoulder
29:55
Speaker 1: and then he got crap all over you. But the
30:00
Speaker 1: as you learn as a dad, my question as a
30:03
Speaker 1: Chiefs fan, living in case I stop doubting Bretbeach he's
30:06
Speaker 1: playing chess while I'm yelling at the board. But I
30:11
Speaker 1: keep seeing Jordan Love mock to us. You always say
30:14
Speaker 1: the draft is an economic value exercise, So is the
30:16
Speaker 1: value actually there? I'd rather invest in the trenches, especially
30:20
Speaker 1: if Bain is still on the board. Am I crazy?
30:23
Speaker 3: Love?
30:24
Speaker 1: Really good? Love's really good? But he's not Adrian Peterson.
30:28
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a franchise altering back. He's pretty good.
30:33
Speaker 1: I think there would be a lot of people that
30:34
Speaker 1: would say he could be like an Adrian Peterson in
30:38
Speaker 1: terms of impact. I don't think he's gonna be there
30:41
Speaker 1: at nine. So we had this conversation yesterday when I
30:44
Speaker 1: talked about Jeremiah Love. I would not expect him to
30:48
Speaker 1: be there at pick nine. So I think this conversation
30:51
Speaker 1: that's been going on for a while with the Chiefs
30:53
Speaker 1: actually take a running back in the first round. I
30:56
Speaker 1: don't even think it's gonna be an option. I think
30:58
Speaker 1: it's possible that Jeremiah Love doesn't take it out of
31:00
Speaker 1: the top five. Is there any world in which the
31:04
Speaker 1: Ravens would consider trading Lamar Jackson say he indicates he
31:09
Speaker 1: wants to leave, or the new contract negotiations are difficult.
31:14
Speaker 1: Does three first round picks from the Jets or the
31:17
Speaker 1: Raiders offering you their first pick and the twenty six
31:20
Speaker 1: Mendoza get your attention to me. The Raiders, you're so
31:27
Speaker 1: in with Mendoza, the rookie contract you hired Kobiak, like
31:31
Speaker 1: you're just going that direction. The Jets, the contract negotiations,
31:38
Speaker 1: I would imagine are going to be difficult, like they
31:40
Speaker 1: have had difficult contract negotiations in the past, and they
31:44
Speaker 1: don't have a choice, right because it was his cap number,
31:46
Speaker 1: like seventy two million dollars. I would see no world
31:54
Speaker 1: in which Lamar Jackson has traded. So my expectations would
31:58
Speaker 1: be they say at the combine, Lamar Jackson's not only
32:02
Speaker 1: gonna be on the right, He's gonna get a contract extension.
32:05
Speaker 1: Bushatti said it the day that he fired Harball. It's
32:09
Speaker 1: just gonna be interesting. What do they do. They give
32:11
Speaker 1: him like a three year contract extension worth like a
32:13
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy million dollars, every penny guaranteed, Like
32:18
Speaker 1: I don't exactly know the mechanisms and how they're gonna
32:21
Speaker 1: do this, but you know, I think jesse Mentor took
32:24
Speaker 1: the job like they're going all in on Lamar. I
32:29
Speaker 1: know it kind of went viral last week with the
32:31
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator saying because Lamar has been skipping OTA's I
32:34
Speaker 1: would imagine Lamar part of this contract negotiations, Hey, we
32:37
Speaker 1: want you to be around in the spring, which I
32:40
Speaker 1: totally don't blame him, Like I would rather be in
32:42
Speaker 1: Florida in the spring than Baltimore, which I kind of
32:45
Speaker 1: never blame players. Wait, it's not mandatory, and you're in
32:49
Speaker 1: a city that I don't want to be in. Right
32:52
Speaker 1: besides when we're playing, So I'm at home training and
32:54
Speaker 1: I've proven that that I'm good and we're gonna be ready.
32:57
Speaker 1: But like once you start losing, that change a little bit.
33:01
Speaker 1: I would expect a multi year deal worth a lot
33:04
Speaker 1: of money for Lamar Jackson. What do you think would
33:07
Speaker 1: get a better TV rating? A regular season NFL game
33:12
Speaker 1: Chiefs versus the Bills, full pads, usual rules but flag
33:17
Speaker 1: football not tackle. Or the NBA Finals between the Spurs
33:23
Speaker 1: and Toronto. I mean that wouldn't even be close. I
33:28
Speaker 1: don't think a casual sports fan could name one player
33:31
Speaker 1: in the Toronto Raptors, not one. I think the one
33:37
Speaker 1: thing being at the combine. You know, my wife has
33:41
Speaker 1: really got me in the Bravo and reality television Love
33:44
Speaker 1: is Blind on Netflix. I feel like I've watched like
33:46
Speaker 1: the last four seasons, which if you go on Love
33:50
Speaker 1: is Blind, you either truly and we've talked about this before,
33:54
Speaker 1: like want to get famous or are just pretty desperate
33:58
Speaker 1: because listen, for whatever reason, I'm not the best looking guy.
34:02
Speaker 1: I've never had that much trouble getting a date. I
34:06
Speaker 1: can't imagine going on Love is Blind if my number
34:09
Speaker 1: one goal wasn't trying to gain followers and be famous,
34:12
Speaker 1: because some of these people are truly going on to
34:14
Speaker 1: try to find love, Like you're not gonna find love
34:16
Speaker 1: on Love is Blind. But like that show, I'm sure
34:22
Speaker 1: it does really good numbers for Netflix. Right, and football,
34:27
Speaker 1: all it's become now is a television show. It's all
34:31
Speaker 1: about media when it comes to football. They have done
34:35
Speaker 1: such a good job of making everything matter. Like, what
34:38
Speaker 1: was the most important thing that happened in the combine?
34:41
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. It was, all the coaches and
34:43
Speaker 1: GM's talking that was one hundred percent the most important thing.
34:47
Speaker 1: Because all those clips go viral, it's a really big deal.
34:51
Speaker 1: It's why the combine. Even if it changes over the
34:53
Speaker 1: course of time, that element of it will not. If
34:56
Speaker 1: you're the NFL in the middle of February or late
34:59
Speaker 1: or you know, early March, you want those guys making
35:03
Speaker 1: some headlines saying some shit. That's why this league generates
35:06
Speaker 1: so much money. There's interest and you know some of
35:09
Speaker 1: these guys having talks since December. So the television aspect
35:17
Speaker 1: of this sport is no one could have envisioned that
35:21
Speaker 1: in the Al Davis, you know, Lamar Hunt way back
35:26
Speaker 1: in the day, Pete Roselle days. But I'm sorry, no chance.
35:31
Speaker 1: What it has become, which is the amount of people
35:36
Speaker 1: they are doing kind of what I do in the
35:38
Speaker 1: digital world that can run their own businesses or companies
35:41
Speaker 1: built around digital stuff around football is pretty eye opening.
35:47
Speaker 1: Like one takeaway I had like if I ran a
35:49
Speaker 1: radio station and I went to that, I'd be like,
35:51
Speaker 1: where fucked? We might as well double down and start
35:55
Speaker 1: a digital company if we have some talent on the radio,
35:57
Speaker 1: because we got no shot to com heat with these
36:01
Speaker 1: digital companies that are so fluid they can pivot in
36:05
Speaker 1: any moment. And that's one takeaway I had from the
36:08
Speaker 1: Super Bowl and the you know they call it radio row.
36:11
Speaker 1: It's digital drive is what I consider it. And it's
36:15
Speaker 1: all because of this massive television show, which is the
36:19
Speaker 1: National Football League.
36:27
Speaker 3: All right, fellas, let's be real. Buying men's jewelry used
36:30
Speaker 3: to be a nightmare. It was low quality junk that
36:33
Speaker 3: snapped after a week. We've all been there. That's why
36:36
Speaker 3: I rock with GLD.
36:38
Speaker 1: They changed the game.
36:40
Speaker 3: Many of you have participated as well. You know that
36:43
Speaker 3: GLD uses real gold, none of that cheap stuff. Every
36:47
Speaker 3: single stone is meticulously handset. Plus the proprietary production process
36:52
Speaker 3: make sure you're getting.
36:53
Speaker 1: The highest quality jewelry possible.
36:56
Speaker 3: You could literally see and feel the difference and listen,
37:00
Speaker 3: don't just take my word for it. Over two million
37:03
Speaker 3: customers and fifty thousand five star reviews back it up.
37:07
Speaker 3: Not to mention, it's worn by some of the biggest
37:09
Speaker 3: names out there, Justin Bieber, Micah Parsons, Tyreek Hill, Malik Dahbors,
37:15
Speaker 3: and a ton more guys. The best part, every single
37:17
Speaker 3: piece is guaran teed for life. It's literally built to
37:22
Speaker 3: last that long for life. GLD has official collabs with
37:26
Speaker 3: the NFL, so you can get every NFL team on
37:29
Speaker 3: a pendant this season They also have collabs with the NBA,
37:32
Speaker 3: the WNBA, Major League Baseball, NCAA, and many more. GLD
37:36
Speaker 3: can create fully customed pieces, so get whatever you want
37:40
Speaker 3: designed on one of.
37:41
Speaker 1: Your chains, work hard and change the game.
37:43
Speaker 3: For a limited time only new customers are getting an
37:46
Speaker 3: insane deal. Use the code the number three and out
37:50
Speaker 3: to get fifty percent off at GLD dot com. That's
37:54
Speaker 3: fifty percent off with code three and out at GLD
37:58
Speaker 3: dot com.
38:06
Speaker 1: Question for the mailbag, I'm always intentional to listen to
38:08
Speaker 1: your show for your direct feed versus the same show
38:12
Speaker 1: distributed through cowards feed because I assume it's better for
38:16
Speaker 1: you economically with how listeners and metrics are used for
38:20
Speaker 1: your advertisement sales. Is this true or I'm wrong in
38:24
Speaker 1: your assumption. I get credit for the listen no matter what.
38:28
Speaker 1: Obviously the columns feed from a distribution standpoint has changed
38:33
Speaker 1: the amount of people that have heard me. But in
38:36
Speaker 1: terms of economically, we're on business together. So when we sell,
38:41
Speaker 1: you know, an ad to hard rock or to you
38:44
Speaker 1: name the company. Reef makes fantastic shoes. They sent me
38:49
Speaker 1: a couple of free shoes they've been advertising. You know.
38:53
Speaker 1: I've always had their sandals they send me a pair
38:55
Speaker 1: of sandals too, but their tennis shoes or just like
38:58
Speaker 1: kind of nice, like all white shoe. I warded the
39:01
Speaker 1: combine I wore at the super Bowl. It looks good,
39:04
Speaker 1: it feels good. No free ads here, but like it
39:07
Speaker 1: all goes into the same umbrella. I just push you
39:09
Speaker 1: to my feed because this all could end tomorrow. Like
39:13
Speaker 1: who knows. I'm not, you know, cocky and arrogant enough
39:17
Speaker 1: to think this is last forever. That's not the way
39:19
Speaker 1: the world works. So that feed is mine, the three
39:22
Speaker 1: and outfeed, so more people that are just subscribed there
39:26
Speaker 1: for the health of the business long term. But in
39:28
Speaker 1: terms of the ad spend and the dollars, it's all
39:32
Speaker 1: under the same umbrella. Any interest in doing a full
39:40
Speaker 1: mock draft doesn't have to be full in depth or
39:43
Speaker 1: even a whole round. One could just be the top
39:46
Speaker 1: ten either. I could do a top ten one. As
39:50
Speaker 1: we get closer, I could definitely do a top ten one.
39:59
Speaker 1: But it was like some of these like random offensive
40:01
Speaker 1: linemen and safeties, like you just the unknown in doing
40:05
Speaker 1: a mock draft right now, to me, it feels a
40:07
Speaker 1: little crazy, like we got a lot of moving parts.
40:10
Speaker 1: It's like that's who they're gonna take it pick twenty four,
40:14
Speaker 1: and then the Packers select Jordan Love. I mean that
40:18
Speaker 1: happens all the time. Players are taken that no one
40:21
Speaker 1: saw coming, and that's what makes it draft so fun.
40:23
Speaker 1: Like I've never I used to love mock drafts when
40:26
Speaker 1: I was a kid. Since I've been doing this, I'm
40:29
Speaker 1: not the biggest mock draft guy, cause I think it's
40:32
Speaker 1: I understand why people click on it and it works,
40:35
Speaker 1: but I just think it's like you could do an
40:39
Speaker 1: educated guess in the top ten once you get to
40:41
Speaker 1: like pick fifteen, Like you got no fucking clue. Was
40:47
Speaker 1: listening to pod and you talked about Jack not sleeping.
40:51
Speaker 1: It may sound crazy, but we started taking our boy
40:54
Speaker 1: to the chiropractor and it worked. Wonders definitely worth a shot.
40:59
Speaker 1: Our boys sleeps. It's nine to eleven hours with minimal
41:02
Speaker 1: waking up in the night. I hear what you're saying.
41:07
Speaker 1: You know, when they're at the age Jack is he
41:09
Speaker 1: has to feed every three three and a half hours,
41:13
Speaker 1: So even if he is sleeping and he kind of
41:16
Speaker 1: gets up like clockwork, Like if he eats at eleven,
41:20
Speaker 1: he will get up twelve one too. You know, two
41:22
Speaker 1: thirty three o'clock, I'm ready to eat, to have a
41:25
Speaker 1: bottle or the boob, you know, from the milk lady.
41:29
Speaker 1: So hey, milk lady, I need another round. Hey, milk lady,
41:34
Speaker 1: another round. So that's part of it. Is the sleeping
41:39
Speaker 1: element is he just naturally gets up and there's sometimes
41:43
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night when he's excited or whatever,
41:46
Speaker 1: you know, the milk or maybe goes to bathroom. It's
41:49
Speaker 1: just hard to kind of calm him back down. So
41:51
Speaker 1: it's just it's a challenge. And at the end of
41:54
Speaker 1: the day, like a six seven week old, you can
41:57
Speaker 1: attempt to get him on schedules and stuff, but they
41:59
Speaker 1: kind of and they beat to their own drum a
42:01
Speaker 1: little bit in terms of the feeding, and there's no
42:05
Speaker 1: he couldn't even have eight straight hours if he wanted to,
42:07
Speaker 1: because he has to eat multiple times in that those
42:10
Speaker 1: eight hours has to And one thing about Jack when
42:14
Speaker 1: you're feeding him, he's got I would say minimum one
42:19
Speaker 1: one gigantic diarrhea potentially too. I mean, no human being.
42:25
Speaker 1: I'm sure many of you would agree with this. It
42:26
Speaker 1: feels like no one can go through more diapers than
42:28
Speaker 1: this kid. I mean, he goes through I feel like
42:32
Speaker 1: thousands of diapers, and it's not like just a little pee.
42:35
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just constant, just explosions. I'm a Birds fan,
42:42
Speaker 1: but Andy Reid still has a soft spot in my heart,
42:44
Speaker 1: head coach from when I was a child. All these
42:47
Speaker 1: mock drafts have read in the Chiefs taken love at
42:51
Speaker 1: Notre Dame at nine. You've said at previous pods, in
42:54
Speaker 1: what world do the Chiefs not take a star edge
42:56
Speaker 1: like Bane or one of the offensive linemen Andy Reid's
42:59
Speaker 1: been taking. I ain't been high forever. When you look
43:02
Speaker 1: at what round was, Shady McCoy was second round, Brian
43:13
Speaker 1: Westbrook out of Villanova was the third round. Jamal Charles,
43:19
Speaker 1: who he inherited, who was freaking awesome. If you don't
43:23
Speaker 1: remember Jamal Charles with Andy Reid, you might want to.
43:28
Speaker 1: Just like thirteen fourteen fifteen, Jamal Charles was sick, he
43:34
Speaker 1: was a third round pick. So I think a lot
43:36
Speaker 1: of the running backs that Andy has been around, the
43:39
Speaker 1: value for that player has not been super high, even
43:43
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. Machako is a seventh round pick. Okay,
43:48
Speaker 1: last question here. We'll get out of here on a
43:50
Speaker 1: serious note, and I'll go back to dealing with my
43:55
Speaker 1: crazy son. Got more of a phyllis of coal question
44:00
Speaker 1: for you. I'm starting a new job and have some
44:03
Speaker 1: serious imposter syndrome going. It's a big change from my
44:07
Speaker 1: current role in quite the pay bump as well as
44:12
Speaker 1: more responsibilities. The role had over one hundred applicants and
44:17
Speaker 1: I was selected. Congratulations. Have you ever had imposter syndrome
44:23
Speaker 1: as part of your rise? Do people act like I'm
44:26
Speaker 1: at the top of the mountain. I mean, I'm just
44:28
Speaker 1: a podcaster here. Uh, you currently have? And how did
44:33
Speaker 1: you deal with it? I have been overwhelmed before, and
44:38
Speaker 1: I have been nervous. I heard actually a recent line
44:41
Speaker 1: that I thought would just anyone can relate to is
44:45
Speaker 1: Scott van Pelt. I think I was listening to his
44:47
Speaker 1: podcast and he said, someone wants asked Tiger Woods is
44:52
Speaker 1: why can't you ever hit the first fairway at the Masters?
44:55
Speaker 1: Because I think Tiger notoriously was like always in the
44:57
Speaker 1: right bunker, He's always yanking and left. He never hit
45:00
Speaker 1: the first fairway at the Masters, which obviously he's won
45:04
Speaker 1: the Masters a munch times, and he looked at whoever
45:07
Speaker 1: asked him the question he said, because I'm nervous as shit.
45:11
Speaker 1: So the point is that Tiger Woods gets nervous, Tom Brady,
45:16
Speaker 1: Josh Allen throws up before every game. It's human nature,
45:22
Speaker 1: and I can relate more to I don't think I've
45:24
Speaker 1: ever had imposter syndrome, like I shouldn't be here. I've
45:28
Speaker 1: always felt in the room i'm in, I belong now.
45:32
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean I don't get nervous before that moment
45:36
Speaker 1: or while I'm in there dealing with whoever. Your nerves
45:39
Speaker 1: are high, but that's human nature. Like you clearly did
45:46
Speaker 1: something to earn the opportunity they offered one hundred people.
45:51
Speaker 1: You get big pay raise, like they believe in what
45:54
Speaker 1: you did previously to earn this spot. And you can
45:58
Speaker 1: make the argument is like, is anyone truly ready for
46:01
Speaker 1: their role? Probably not? Yeah, I bet if we Mike
46:05
Speaker 1: McDonald walked in here right now, Like, were you ready
46:08
Speaker 1: that first couple of months of being a head coach?
46:10
Speaker 1: He said, no chance, a couple of years. Lady who
46:12
Speaker 1: wins Souer Bowl, No one expects you to be whatever
46:14
Speaker 1: your role is, Warren Buffett, day one. So I think
46:19
Speaker 1: the easiest way I know for me is I'm a
46:22
Speaker 1: big like to do guy. I try to write out
46:24
Speaker 1: my tasks like I'm very visual that way. I need
46:28
Speaker 1: to like check things off. That's how I operate from
46:31
Speaker 1: a professional standpoint, Like I got these seven things to do,
46:35
Speaker 1: you know. I do to do lists wherever in my
46:37
Speaker 1: phone all the time, and I just bang them out
46:40
Speaker 1: like if I have to do something, you know, in
46:42
Speaker 1: the morning. So whatever your process is to help alleviate
46:46
Speaker 1: some of the stress, but I can't, Like I've never
46:51
Speaker 1: felt like I shouldn't be here. Now if you like
46:55
Speaker 1: threw me on the an NFL football field and said, hey,
46:58
Speaker 1: play linebacker, Like yeah, I have imposters syndrome. What is
47:01
Speaker 1: going on? But you're in a situation that clearly you
47:05
Speaker 1: were chosen for for a reason. Now are you gonna
47:08
Speaker 1: be able to handle it or not? Who knows? But
47:12
Speaker 1: you get better with experience. Take it day by day.
47:15
Speaker 1: I mean all the cliche bullshit, but it's true, Like
47:18
Speaker 1: you can't think about like what's it gonna be like
47:19
Speaker 1: in a couple of years. It's like, hey, how am
47:21
Speaker 1: I going to handle this week? What am I gonna
47:23
Speaker 1: do the next couple of days to make this go?
47:26
Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, right, the money thing,
47:32
Speaker 1: it feels good at first whenever you get a quote
47:34
Speaker 1: unquote big pay raise, you start making more money, but like,
47:38
Speaker 1: it's not unless I'm, by no means some guy that
47:43
Speaker 1: like I'm still very worried about finances. It does not
47:48
Speaker 1: change your life, honestly, and if it does, then I
47:53
Speaker 1: can't really relate to you. Now. It definitely helps whatever
47:56
Speaker 1: you're doing for kids, schools, for buying homes whatever. I'm
48:00
Speaker 1: not acting like money isn't important. And even if you're
48:03
Speaker 1: like I value you know, ambitious people and driven people
48:07
Speaker 1: and people that want to make more money. But then
48:10
Speaker 1: once you start, you just like go on with your day,
48:12
Speaker 1: you know. So I would say, just keep your head
48:17
Speaker 1: down and start grinding and try to do a good job.
48:20
Speaker 1: And you're gonna be nervous that that's pretty normal and
48:23
Speaker 1: just I don't know, it'll come with the territory. That's
48:28
Speaker 1: a good thing. So good luck to you. The volume
