00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:11,730
Good evening.
2
00:00:11,730 --> 00:00:12,390
Good evening.
3
00:00:12,395 --> 00:00:17,340
It's the Couch Potato Sports Report
with T-Bird and the other guy.
4
00:00:17,580 --> 00:00:21,150
And Dexter, if you'll notice,
Mo's not here tonight.
5
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,680
And uh, so me and og, we gonna be
rolling with the punches tonight.
6
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:31,110
Og, we got a lot of stuff in the
N B A going on with LeBron James.
7
00:00:31,890 --> 00:00:37,620
You know, the Lakers, they got this team,
uh, you know, they won a championship in
8
00:00:37,620 --> 00:00:43,140
the bubble and now you know, people don't
think they can win it out of the bubble.
9
00:00:43,140 --> 00:00:47,730
And then you got Anthony Davis who
supposed to be all this and all that.
10
00:00:47,730 --> 00:00:54,885
And to me he ain't all that, but
LeBron's out so, so, What, what do you
11
00:00:54,885 --> 00:00:56,715
think this is going to take their team?
12
00:00:56,715 --> 00:00:58,815
Will they, will they get
in the playoff tournament?
13
00:00:58,815 --> 00:01:01,065
Will they make the regular uh, playoffs?
14
00:01:01,485 --> 00:01:07,065
You know, they are, they are a
team comprised of all stars and
15
00:01:07,365 --> 00:01:12,915
they're individual all stars and
they do not have the cohesion to,
16
00:01:13,185 --> 00:01:15,495
to go very far in the playoffs.
17
00:01:15,495 --> 00:01:18,525
They have all the talent in the
world, but they cannot put together.
18
00:01:18,885 --> 00:01:22,965
And that's why even with a
full roster, they struggle.
19
00:01:23,115 --> 00:01:26,775
I mean, look at, look at, towards the
end of last year and even into this year
20
00:01:26,780 --> 00:01:28,995
with a full, with a full, you know, team.
21
00:01:29,475 --> 00:01:32,985
They're just, they're okay cuz
they just don't, they, they
22
00:01:32,985 --> 00:01:34,545
play individual basketball.
23
00:01:34,664 --> 00:01:34,875
Right.
24
00:01:34,875 --> 00:01:35,835
That's the best way to put it.
25
00:01:36,285 --> 00:01:40,395
Well, I mean like, uh, when you
think about Anthony Davis, you know,
26
00:01:40,395 --> 00:01:45,645
that was the big get that LeBron
wanted to get and he got him, uh,
27
00:01:46,140 --> 00:01:48,360
How many games have this guy missed?
28
00:01:48,420 --> 00:01:50,790
I mean, he, they just giving him money.
29
00:01:50,910 --> 00:01:54,600
I mean, it's just not, I wouldn't want
him on my team if you want to know
30
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,310
the truth, because he never plays.
31
00:01:56,670 --> 00:02:00,150
And now when he starts to play, he
can't carry the team without LeBron.
32
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:01,740
He was supposed to been that guy.
33
00:02:02,070 --> 00:02:06,480
He's, he's, he's not
necessarily a number one guy.
34
00:02:07,020 --> 00:02:09,509
And, and, you know, talk
about playing hurt, man.
35
00:02:09,509 --> 00:02:14,820
I, I couldn't, I can't think of
a, of a center type of player.
36
00:02:14,820 --> 00:02:15,120
Powerful.
37
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:20,310
He's a very big, he's a big, how
many big men play consistently?
38
00:02:20,470 --> 00:02:21,990
I, I mean, think about Zion.
39
00:02:21,990 --> 00:02:23,550
Zion misses every other game.
40
00:02:23,580 --> 00:02:25,860
He men out 26 straight games.
41
00:02:26,370 --> 00:02:30,330
Like, come on now, . I mean, like,
what's he doing to earn that,
42
00:02:30,335 --> 00:02:31,800
that big old check he's getting.
43
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,540
Well, uh, you know, again, you
know, I know we, we talked about
44
00:02:36,540 --> 00:02:41,760
it last week, but, you know, the
load management thing, uh, I think
45
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,260
that's running in the N B A, but.
46
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:49,410
LeBron got a legitimate, uh,
injury here and I just really don't
47
00:02:49,410 --> 00:02:53,760
think that they can win without
LeBron and, and Anthony Davis.
48
00:02:53,820 --> 00:02:57,570
I mean, he'll tweak something
tomorrow and that'll be that.
49
00:02:57,570 --> 00:03:01,200
So what, what do you think
their chances are with getting
50
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,720
in the playoff without LeBron?
51
00:03:03,990 --> 00:03:05,940
I think it's gonna be a stretch at best.
52
00:03:06,030 --> 00:03:10,200
Um, with LeBron, I think they're,
you know, maybe they could get six,
53
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:15,000
seventh, eight seed, but I think play
in tournament, if they're lucky without
54
00:03:15,005 --> 00:03:19,560
LeBron, they they very well could miss,
just cuz they don't have that guy.
55
00:03:19,590 --> 00:03:23,760
You, LeBron is such a good player
to get everyone else involved.
56
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,490
And I mean, you need a guy like that.
57
00:03:26,519 --> 00:03:29,130
They don't, they certainly
don't have that without him.
58
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,269
I mean, definitely not.
59
00:03:30,269 --> 00:03:33,840
And, and AD is not the answer that maybe
they, they thought he was gonna be.
60
00:03:33,870 --> 00:03:34,800
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
61
00:03:34,890 --> 00:03:35,850
He's not the answer.
62
00:03:35,850 --> 00:03:41,070
And even if they got in the playoffs,
They're not gonna go very far.
63
00:03:41,370 --> 00:03:44,340
Cause LeBron, he's LeBron, but he's 38.
64
00:03:44,460 --> 00:03:45,390
And he's 38.
65
00:03:45,390 --> 00:03:45,810
LeBron.
66
00:03:45,810 --> 00:03:49,350
And he, he, he can't carry them
every game like he used to.
67
00:03:49,740 --> 00:03:51,000
Dick, you gotta take on that.
68
00:03:51,570 --> 00:03:56,250
Uh, yeah, I ki I kind of, I, I think
it, it be, it be, it's kind of an
69
00:03:56,250 --> 00:04:00,870
interesting question because you
have all this game film on LeBron
70
00:04:00,870 --> 00:04:04,620
and that's part of the problem is
you have a ton of film and everything
71
00:04:04,620 --> 00:04:07,770
on him, but with everybody else, you
don't really have anything on them.
72
00:04:07,770 --> 00:04:11,610
You don't have a, a whole lot
of information to see how well
73
00:04:11,615 --> 00:04:13,770
they play together without him.
74
00:04:14,130 --> 00:04:18,720
So what happens now, you know, do you,
it it would, it's like you have a chance
75
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,980
to decentralize the offense and see what
they can do so they can make or break
76
00:04:22,980 --> 00:04:24,150
themselves at this point, you know?
77
00:04:24,270 --> 00:04:24,450
Yeah.
78
00:04:24,455 --> 00:04:26,850
Not to answer a question with
a question, but I, I feel like
79
00:04:26,850 --> 00:04:27,880
the whole thing's interesting.
80
00:04:28,290 --> 00:04:28,620
Yeah.
81
00:04:28,625 --> 00:04:34,125
And then they just made, you know, a
trade where, Sent Pat, Patrick, Beverly
82
00:04:34,125 --> 00:04:39,585
on this way, and then they got, you know,
a new two or three guys and you know, you
83
00:04:39,585 --> 00:04:42,195
gotta get some continuity with those guys.
84
00:04:42,195 --> 00:04:47,055
And the season is about over and
again, I think the whole key is ad.
85
00:04:47,385 --> 00:04:51,705
I mean, they should, having LeBron
and ad, they should be able to play
86
00:04:51,705 --> 00:04:56,565
with LeBron with AD because he's
that dude, but he's not that dude.
87
00:04:56,565 --> 00:04:59,685
He's not Joe, l m b, you
know, he's not Giannis.
88
00:05:00,225 --> 00:05:02,895
And he was supposed to have
been in the conversation with
89
00:05:02,895 --> 00:05:04,605
those guys, but he's not.
90
00:05:05,025 --> 00:05:08,775
Yeah, he was, he was the dude
his first couple years in league
91
00:05:08,775 --> 00:05:12,075
because there wasn't a Zion, there
wasn't a Giannis at the time.
92
00:05:12,135 --> 00:05:14,205
He was the best that there was.
93
00:05:14,205 --> 00:05:17,775
And we didn't realize that there
were several people better at his
94
00:05:17,775 --> 00:05:18,885
kind of position, if you will.
95
00:05:19,125 --> 00:05:19,325
Right.
96
00:05:19,455 --> 00:05:24,435
And I, I, I, I can't understand for the
life of me and y'all help me, I can't
97
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,625
understand why that guy's so fragile.
98
00:05:27,105 --> 00:05:29,565
I mean, he's a, he's a big dude.
99
00:05:30,870 --> 00:05:35,580
But it, it's, it's like he got a
stress here, he got a stress there.
100
00:05:36,060 --> 00:05:38,159
He's out for 15 games.
101
00:05:38,159 --> 00:05:40,469
I mean, I don't even understand that.
102
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,620
I don't, I don't remember guys being
out like that back in the day, do you?
103
00:05:43,950 --> 00:05:44,820
No, no.
104
00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:45,360
Definitely not.
105
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,099
And, and there have been guys as big
as him and, and taller Even the guy
106
00:05:50,099 --> 00:05:51,599
needs to eat a cheeseburger or two.
107
00:05:51,599 --> 00:05:53,010
I mean, put some meat on those bones.
108
00:05:53,010 --> 00:05:56,969
But I mean, he's not the only,
only thin, tall guy, but there
109
00:05:56,969 --> 00:05:58,950
are some, some big tall guys too.
110
00:05:59,219 --> 00:06:00,120
Right, right.
111
00:06:00,570 --> 00:06:03,810
And you know, honestly, I, I
feel like sometimes his eyebrows
112
00:06:03,810 --> 00:06:04,890
get in the way of his shots.
113
00:06:05,490 --> 00:06:06,390
That's a good point.
114
00:06:06,390 --> 00:06:06,659
Dex.
115
00:06:06,659 --> 00:06:06,960
Yeah.
116
00:06:07,430 --> 00:06:12,480
. You know, I mean, it is just, I just
wouldn't, I wouldn't have him on my team.
117
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,740
I think, uh, I know
when LeBron go on title.
118
00:06:16,740 --> 00:06:17,070
Right.
119
00:06:17,370 --> 00:06:18,300
Okay.
120
00:06:18,305 --> 00:06:21,780
Ad everybody else was standing up and
AD was sitting down over there and
121
00:06:21,780 --> 00:06:22,919
they, they asked him, man, what's.
122
00:06:23,414 --> 00:06:24,135
What's up with that?
123
00:06:24,135 --> 00:06:27,825
Why you didn't go, you know, get
LeBron his, his flowers, you know,
124
00:06:28,724 --> 00:06:31,604
and, uh, he was talking about it.
125
00:06:31,695 --> 00:06:33,375
It didn't have nothing to do with that.
126
00:06:33,380 --> 00:06:35,715
It was about the way they
was playing or something.
127
00:06:35,715 --> 00:06:36,135
Come on.
128
00:06:37,215 --> 00:06:38,385
Are we gonna believe that og?
129
00:06:38,745 --> 00:06:39,375
Yeah.
130
00:06:39,380 --> 00:06:42,315
I, I, again, we got lots of superstars.
131
00:06:42,315 --> 00:06:46,455
Lots of egos and lots of, you know,
whatever it, I don't care who you are.
132
00:06:46,484 --> 00:06:50,176
If you are playing on LeBron's
team, it's LeBron's team.
133
00:06:50,176 --> 00:06:51,315
It's LeBron's team, no doubt about it.
134
00:06:51,315 --> 00:06:56,054
So he's got a, something, something's
doesn't sit well, but he should know
135
00:06:56,054 --> 00:06:57,945
going in that it is LeBron's team.
136
00:06:57,945 --> 00:07:01,664
I don't care who you are, I don't care if
he 40, it's still LeBron LeBron's team.
137
00:07:01,724 --> 00:07:02,505
You know what I mean?
138
00:07:02,505 --> 00:07:05,865
Cause that, that there's,
that was no call to do that.
139
00:07:05,865 --> 00:07:07,905
I mean, get up, go get a boy's flowers.
140
00:07:08,265 --> 00:07:10,905
Ain't nothing you can say because
you done missed more than half
141
00:07:10,905 --> 00:07:13,034
the season with a injury again.
142
00:07:13,395 --> 00:07:13,484
Right.
143
00:07:13,544 --> 00:07:17,544
I mean, in fairness to Anthony
Davis, he was sponsored by Haterade.
144
00:07:17,594 --> 00:07:21,525
So , you know, he, he's got a, you know,
he is got that contract and everything,
145
00:07:21,525 --> 00:07:25,425
so, Uh, well, hey man, it is what it is.
146
00:07:25,425 --> 00:07:27,015
You know, long lived the Lakers.
147
00:07:27,075 --> 00:07:27,825
Hahaha.
148
00:07:28,545 --> 00:07:32,295
All right, guys, when we come back,
we're gonna talk a little N F L
149
00:07:32,295 --> 00:07:36,585
free agency and uh, I wonder what
that means for the Atlanta Falcons
150
00:07:36,585 --> 00:07:37,575
coming up back in the minute.
151
00:07:57,270 --> 00:08:01,080

us and a new car is a great gift.
153
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,170
Don't just send them into the world with
a reliable ride, but unreliable insurance.
154
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:11,700
At the Levette Group, we will find
the best TaylorMade policy we can
155
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:13,380
even add on renter's insurance.
156
00:08:13,385 --> 00:08:17,460
For further coverage and a better deal,
just call Todd Dean at the Levette Group.

Hey, this is Producer Dex with
the C Potato Sports Report.
160
00:08:33,060 --> 00:08:36,030
Have so much fun watching these
guys talk about sports like the
161
00:08:36,030 --> 00:08:37,110
sitting around a water cooler.
162
00:08:37,710 --> 00:08:40,740
There are a few things that can

176
00:09:32,510 --> 00:09:39,415
Potato Sports Report,
T-Bird and og and uh, og.
177
00:09:40,065 --> 00:09:40,655
We got.
178
00:09:42,225 --> 00:09:49,005
Free agency coming up and Lord knows I,
Atlanta Falcons need to make some moves.
179
00:09:49,845 --> 00:09:58,065
And I, I guess the, the question is
what do we need and who do we need?
180
00:09:59,685 --> 00:10:03,975
, I feel like we, we talk about this
year, every single year, we need
181
00:10:04,065 --> 00:10:08,795
offensive defensive linemen and you
know, we need some skill positions.
182
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,935
And I think the big question here, so the
Falcons have the number eight pick right
183
00:10:13,940 --> 00:10:19,905
now, and there's some talented players
on the board, but I think the bigger
184
00:10:19,905 --> 00:10:23,715
question is, is Desmond Ritter the guy?
185
00:10:24,390 --> 00:10:28,860
And, and, and once we answer that
question, we can know, okay, who do we
186
00:10:28,860 --> 00:10:31,020
wanna pursue in the free, in free agency?
187
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,670
And or who do we wanna look at drafting
or, or moving up or back or whatever.
188
00:10:35,670 --> 00:10:38,070
Like what do we do with our
pick if Ritter's the guy?
189
00:10:38,370 --> 00:10:42,270
But see, we are not gonna know if
Ritter's the guy unless he plays, right?
190
00:10:42,930 --> 00:10:43,140
Yeah.
191
00:10:43,140 --> 00:10:46,920
And, and he, he did start, you know, Mary
got benched halfway through the year.
192
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,140
He did start, he, he looked decent.
193
00:10:49,140 --> 00:10:54,420
There's some potential, but I don't
know if there's enough evidence to, to
194
00:10:54,425 --> 00:10:56,550
really make a, a decision either way.
195
00:10:57,630 --> 00:10:58,770
And there's not.
196
00:10:58,950 --> 00:11:03,420
And uh, uh, you know, let's think
now they, they, the bears are talking
197
00:11:03,420 --> 00:11:04,890
about trading the number one pick.
198
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,380
That's been the talk all week.
199
00:11:07,380 --> 00:11:09,390
You know, we got the
combine going on this week.
200
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:19,500
And if they trade that pick, you gotta
think the Falcons are going to try to
201
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:23,520
make some kind of move, be one of the
teams in the conversation because.
202
00:11:24,735 --> 00:11:28,020
of the quarterbacks that's on,
that's that can be drafted.
203
00:11:28,980 --> 00:11:34,140
So, you know, again, we don't
never know what they're gonna do.
204
00:11:34,145 --> 00:11:36,450
I mean, we think one way
and they do something else.
205
00:11:36,450 --> 00:11:39,930
But, and then there was a
scenario about the bears.
206
00:11:39,930 --> 00:11:42,600
Were talking about
trading, uh, custom fields.
207
00:11:43,060 --> 00:11:45,360
I, I call that a few weeks ago.
208
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:51,720
And I said, if I'm Atlanta, I try to be,
I try to get that, I try, I, I try to
209
00:11:51,810 --> 00:11:53,700
trade something to get Justin Fields.
210
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,510
He's been the league a couple of
years, you know, pretty much know what
211
00:11:57,515 --> 00:11:58,800
you're getting if you can protect him.
212
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,340
Uh, what's your, what's your
thoughts on those two scenarios?
213
00:12:02,550 --> 00:12:04,110
So I think.
214
00:12:05,190 --> 00:12:09,570
I think we, we need a number one
franchise quarterback period.
215
00:12:09,690 --> 00:12:10,860
Would that be Justin Fields?
216
00:12:10,860 --> 00:12:14,070
If you could get him and, and if
we can get fields, it would be, it
217
00:12:14,075 --> 00:12:15,480
would check a lot of those things.
218
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,810
I think there's enough there that, like
you said, you know what you're gonna get.
219
00:12:19,230 --> 00:12:21,720
He Is he a, is he a 10
outta 10 quarterback?
220
00:12:21,900 --> 00:12:27,180
No, but there, I mean, there are very few
out there, but he's local to the area.
221
00:12:27,180 --> 00:12:28,950
He grew up right down the street from us.
222
00:12:28,955 --> 00:12:29,280
Yeah.
223
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:30,270
At, at Harrison High School.
224
00:12:30,570 --> 00:12:34,950
And like just the, the, you
know, we talk about Trey not
225
00:12:34,955 --> 00:12:36,270
being invested in the community.
226
00:12:36,270 --> 00:12:38,160
Well, well, he grew up in this community.
227
00:12:38,165 --> 00:12:38,280
Yeah.
228
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,440
So, so, you know, Justin's
gonna be bought in.
229
00:12:41,220 --> 00:12:45,870
I think he would be a lot, he'd, he'd
get a lot of fandom and, and fans
230
00:12:45,875 --> 00:12:47,100
interested, you know, local fans.
231
00:12:47,100 --> 00:12:50,520
They've watched him, you know,
grow up and I think that, and that
232
00:12:50,550 --> 00:12:52,080
he would be a great opportunity.
233
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,230
I would rather go after him than I
would the number one overall pick.
234
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,230
And I would really go after
him than Lamar Jackson.
235
00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:58,620
Yes.
236
00:12:58,650 --> 00:13:02,370
Because if you go after Lamar Jackson,
you're gonna be right back in Camp Hale.
237
00:13:03,194 --> 00:13:04,905
Like you win with Matt Ryan.
238
00:13:05,084 --> 00:13:07,305
I don't want and, and don't
wanna do that again because
239
00:13:07,305 --> 00:13:09,135
you see, we can't get nothing.
240
00:13:09,375 --> 00:13:13,275
I, I don't want, I don't want Lamar
he's, he's, I think he's toxic.
241
00:13:13,844 --> 00:13:15,074
A sidebar on him.
242
00:13:15,074 --> 00:13:17,415
It's sounding like he's
signing with the commander.
243
00:13:17,415 --> 00:13:19,365
So what?
244
00:13:19,635 --> 00:13:21,314
Yeah, that's Lamar Jackson.
245
00:13:21,314 --> 00:13:21,704
Yeah.
246
00:13:21,709 --> 00:13:23,685
There, there's some things
being finalized tonight.
247
00:13:23,685 --> 00:13:24,974
We're gonna know more later on.
248
00:13:24,974 --> 00:13:30,525
But yeah, he's, uh, I guess
they're meeting his conditions.
249
00:13:30,945 --> 00:13:32,925
I'm just wondering how
big that bag is gonna be.
250
00:13:32,925 --> 00:13:35,685
So really that's the rumor, man.
251
00:13:36,135 --> 00:13:37,085
Did you hear that news?
252
00:13:37,315 --> 00:13:41,475
I I I, I could see that,
remember LA late last year?
253
00:13:41,475 --> 00:13:41,805
We talked.
254
00:13:41,805 --> 00:13:45,045
He probably could have come back
one of the last couple games
255
00:13:45,165 --> 00:13:46,665
and he, and he chose not to.
256
00:13:46,725 --> 00:13:46,935
Yeah.
257
00:13:46,940 --> 00:13:50,715
And there was some dissension, you know,
there were some guys making some comments.
258
00:13:50,775 --> 00:13:50,955
Yeah.
259
00:13:51,225 --> 00:13:54,915
So maybe there's more going on
than we really thought, or, or
260
00:13:54,915 --> 00:13:56,445
put much, much thought into.
261
00:13:57,105 --> 00:13:58,725
And look, Lamar wants to get paid.
262
00:13:58,725 --> 00:14:00,765
He's, he finished out
his fifth year option.
263
00:14:00,765 --> 00:14:02,895
He's, he's ready to start
his second big contract.
264
00:14:03,075 --> 00:14:07,005
The guy wants to get paid and
he sees Deshaun Watson and, and
265
00:14:07,005 --> 00:14:09,765
everyone else getting their money
and, and it's all cash, right?
266
00:14:09,825 --> 00:14:10,875
He wants to do the same.
267
00:14:10,935 --> 00:14:13,785
The Ravens may not be able to meet
that or, or be willing to do that.
268
00:14:14,115 --> 00:14:16,155
So he's gonna shop himself around.
269
00:14:16,185 --> 00:14:20,295
Yeah, I, I get that, but I, I didn't
see that coming with the commanders.
270
00:14:20,355 --> 00:14:20,685
No.
271
00:14:20,685 --> 00:14:23,775
Cause well, they got every,
the enemy as their OC now too.
272
00:14:24,015 --> 00:14:27,735
I mean, also, if you think about it, I
mean, he doesn't have to sell his home.
273
00:14:28,829 --> 00:14:29,339
That's true.
274
00:14:29,339 --> 00:14:29,760
It is.
275
00:14:30,060 --> 00:14:30,810
It's pretty darn close.
276
00:14:30,910 --> 00:14:31,990
That's true, that's true.
277
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,089
That's not from what I understanding.
278
00:14:33,089 --> 00:14:35,579
You know, old mill, so, yeah,
but let's think about it though.
279
00:14:35,579 --> 00:14:39,390
The commanders, they've got, they've
got a few decent quarterbacks too.
280
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,270
Carson Winz, they've got,
um, well, he, he's gone.
281
00:14:42,270 --> 00:14:42,780
They released.
282
00:14:42,780 --> 00:14:43,260
Oh, they did?
283
00:14:43,260 --> 00:14:43,680
Okay.
284
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:43,740
Yeah.
285
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:48,390
So they got Henneke, who's, who's been
their guy for most of two years or so.
286
00:14:48,569 --> 00:14:48,660
Yeah.
287
00:14:48,660 --> 00:14:50,550
And played well, he's, he's not bad.
288
00:14:51,270 --> 00:14:56,280
I just, I'm not sure if I
understand why they would go after
289
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,339
someone like Lamar when they've
got some, then they've got good.
290
00:14:59,610 --> 00:15:00,555
That's not a need for them.
291
00:15:00,810 --> 00:15:02,459
Well, I think it's a level thing.
292
00:15:02,459 --> 00:15:05,910
I mean, they, they just in
their minds and everybody else's
293
00:15:05,910 --> 00:15:08,040
mind, Lamar's next level period.
294
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,810
And when you are, when you are a team
that hadn't won in a long time and
295
00:15:12,810 --> 00:15:16,920
you're trying to win, uh, you are
doing whatever you can, number one to
296
00:15:16,925 --> 00:15:18,510
get people in the house and number.
297
00:15:19,380 --> 00:15:22,110
If that you feel like that's gonna
give you the best chance to win.
298
00:15:22,350 --> 00:15:23,430
That's what you, that's what you do.
299
00:15:23,430 --> 00:15:27,900
Because I felt all along that, all
these owners, it's a big game to them.
300
00:15:27,900 --> 00:15:29,220
They got so much money.
301
00:15:29,550 --> 00:15:30,960
Alright, I'm gonna beat you.
302
00:15:31,170 --> 00:15:32,819
I'm, you know, I'm gonna beat him.
303
00:15:32,824 --> 00:15:33,630
I'm gonna beat that.
304
00:15:33,630 --> 00:15:36,960
That it's, that's it's, it's
a big game to them guys.
305
00:15:38,100 --> 00:15:38,340
Yeah.
306
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,689
You know, honestly, I, it kind of makes
sense for, uh, Lamar Jackson to go over
307
00:15:42,689 --> 00:15:47,430
there because the enemy's gonna implement
the exact same system that he did in
308
00:15:47,430 --> 00:15:52,530
Casey and the, which is similar to the
one that, uh, San Francisco used when,
309
00:15:52,620 --> 00:15:54,750
um, uh, Colin Kaepernick was playing.
310
00:15:54,750 --> 00:15:54,810
Yeah.
311
00:15:55,350 --> 00:15:56,730
And send him to the Super Bowl.
312
00:15:56,730 --> 00:16:00,150
So it's, you just need a certain type
of quarterback to fit that system.
313
00:16:00,150 --> 00:16:03,840
And he, it, it, it, it looks
like it's got a lot of upsides.
314
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:10,380
So, so, and, and we talked about BI
Enemy leaving KC a couple weeks ago.
315
00:16:10,385 --> 00:16:10,760
Yeah.
316
00:16:11,130 --> 00:16:15,480
And I, I, I don't know, maybe I just
didn't realize it, but I, he doesn't, he
317
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,060
didn't call the plays there, so I can see.
318
00:16:18,465 --> 00:16:22,365
You know, his responsibility increased
and he's got a bigger role in all that.
319
00:16:22,365 --> 00:16:26,745
But man, that it still seems like a
downgrade to me going to the commanders.
320
00:16:26,865 --> 00:16:27,795
It it does.
321
00:16:27,795 --> 00:16:33,105
And you know what I, Andy,
Andy Reed to me, is a genius.
322
00:16:33,110 --> 00:16:36,735
But if I'm the oc, I want to call plays.
323
00:16:37,245 --> 00:16:40,485
I mean, I don't know what kinda
arrangement they had up there, but,
324
00:16:41,205 --> 00:16:44,805
uh, if I'm, no, see, I don't wanna
call the plays because that's how
325
00:16:44,805 --> 00:16:48,075
you get elevated to a head coach.
326
00:16:48,075 --> 00:16:51,765
I guess that was the reason why he
wasn't getting elevated to a head coach.
327
00:16:51,765 --> 00:16:54,944
Cause he, in essence, he
wasn't calling the plays.
328
00:16:55,305 --> 00:16:55,485
Yeah.
329
00:16:55,515 --> 00:16:59,595
But man, you, yeah, I, I, I, I, I
understand it from that perspective.
330
00:16:59,595 --> 00:17:02,415
Uhhuh , you wanna, you wanna, you
know, lead the team and you wanna
331
00:17:02,415 --> 00:17:04,305
have that kind of fall on you.
332
00:17:05,204 --> 00:17:08,325
I just, it's hard to, I mean,
you've got a winning franchise.
333
00:17:08,325 --> 00:17:09,315
Why, why break?
334
00:17:09,345 --> 00:17:10,815
You know, if, if it ain't
broke, don't fix it.
335
00:17:10,815 --> 00:17:11,895
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
336
00:17:12,870 --> 00:17:14,430
I've got a question for you.
337
00:17:14,910 --> 00:17:16,260
Getting back to the Falcons here.
338
00:17:16,470 --> 00:17:16,740
Yeah.
339
00:17:16,860 --> 00:17:20,670
And their draft, did their, you know,
draft pick number eight, if they dec
340
00:17:21,329 --> 00:17:25,620
if there's still a quarterback on
the board, do you think they could
341
00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:31,950
convince a, another team to trade up
to their, to number eight to get that,
342
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,600
you know, get whoever that team wanted?
343
00:17:34,950 --> 00:17:36,900
If there's a quarterback on
the board, do you think the
344
00:17:36,900 --> 00:17:38,220
Falcons would trade up to it?
345
00:17:38,270 --> 00:17:38,620
No.
346
00:17:38,625 --> 00:17:42,630
Trade down with the, what situation
would, would the Falcons trade down?
347
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:50,310
Uh, I don't think they're trade
down because I don't wanna get No.
348
00:17:50,985 --> 00:17:52,185
Low rated quarterback.
349
00:17:52,515 --> 00:17:56,655
I don't care if he is a quarterback, I I
want to get the highest rated quarterback.
350
00:17:56,685 --> 00:17:57,825
Am I making sense to you?
351
00:17:57,825 --> 00:18:00,495
Yeah, but if maybe the,
if the falcon Okay.
352
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:01,425
Ritter's our guy.
353
00:18:01,515 --> 00:18:03,315
We don't, we're not
looking for a quarterback.
354
00:18:03,495 --> 00:18:03,735
Yeah.
355
00:18:03,825 --> 00:18:06,405
But there are other, there are
great quarterbacks in the draft.
356
00:18:06,435 --> 00:18:07,785
Other teams need quarterbacks.
357
00:18:07,995 --> 00:18:12,495
Does it make sense for the Falcons to then
trade down and get more picks so that they
358
00:18:12,495 --> 00:18:14,325
can get some more talents in all this?
359
00:18:14,330 --> 00:18:14,495
Yeah.
360
00:18:14,500 --> 00:18:14,535
Yeah.
361
00:18:14,535 --> 00:18:16,245
You can do that because they need a lot.
362
00:18:16,605 --> 00:18:16,785
Yeah.
363
00:18:17,140 --> 00:18:21,045
and, and, uh, you know, number one,
we don't know how many people we're
364
00:18:21,045 --> 00:18:24,345
gonna bring back from this past year.
365
00:18:24,350 --> 00:18:26,385
You know, a lot of guys on one year deals.
366
00:18:26,925 --> 00:18:29,955
So you, it's a, it's a must.
367
00:18:30,045 --> 00:18:31,815
We gotta get edge rushers.
368
00:18:31,815 --> 00:18:37,905
We got, uh, we got a couple, but we need
some guys that can come in there and
369
00:18:37,905 --> 00:18:41,265
really get to the quarterback and keep
bringing those guys along at they home.
370
00:18:41,775 --> 00:18:46,065
Alright, we, we need, uh, uh, D tackles.
371
00:18:46,455 --> 00:18:47,865
Somebody gotta help Grady.
372
00:18:48,270 --> 00:18:50,220
I mean, somebody gotta help Brady.
373
00:18:50,220 --> 00:18:51,720
He can't do it by himself.
374
00:18:52,230 --> 00:18:55,470
And you know, when you get, uh,
pressure on the quarterback that makes
375
00:18:55,470 --> 00:18:59,310
your defensive backs, uh, better,
you gotta get another, uh, back
376
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:05,970
defensive back to go on the longside
of, uh, 24, uh, I forget his name.
377
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:06,600
What's his name?
378
00:19:06,605 --> 00:19:06,720
Mm-hmm.
379
00:19:06,870 --> 00:19:10,710
. Yeah, I can picture, yeah, you
gotta get another, uh, you know,
380
00:19:10,710 --> 00:19:12,360
a bookend corner over there.
381
00:19:12,630 --> 00:19:17,760
So we, we really in a good
position, number one, we got money.
382
00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:18,450
Mm-hmm.
383
00:19:18,690 --> 00:19:18,810
. Okay.
384
00:19:18,810 --> 00:19:23,310
We probably got close to 80 million
cause we just cut Marcus Marietta.
385
00:19:23,315 --> 00:19:24,509
That was $12 million.
386
00:19:24,630 --> 00:19:24,810
Yep.
387
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:25,590
Okay.
388
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:32,700
And number two, we, we, we got,
we went seven and 10 twice, right?
389
00:19:32,730 --> 00:19:32,820
Mm-hmm.
390
00:19:33,245 --> 00:19:34,560
Okay with, with.
391
00:19:35,715 --> 00:19:39,585
So you gotta figure when you get
something that's at least three
392
00:19:39,585 --> 00:19:40,995
more games, you ought to win.
393
00:19:41,264 --> 00:19:43,485
Well, Aaron Rodgers,
uh, here is available.
394
00:19:43,490 --> 00:19:45,915
I don't want Aaron Rods Well,
and we ain't got time for that.
395
00:19:45,985 --> 00:19:47,095
We, we got money though.
396
00:19:47,100 --> 00:19:47,745
We got money.
397
00:19:47,745 --> 00:19:48,014
Yeah.
398
00:19:48,014 --> 00:19:50,925
But nah, I, I think you
stick with your plan.
399
00:19:51,315 --> 00:19:56,715
Try to get a young, uh, quarterback for
the franchise and, and, and you move on.
400
00:19:56,715 --> 00:20:00,135
Then you fi try to fill up all them
other holes You got, you got on Dick.
401
00:20:00,915 --> 00:20:01,155
Yeah.
402
00:20:01,155 --> 00:20:05,715
I mean, we talk about Aaron Rods and
his age, but one of the underlooked
403
00:20:05,715 --> 00:20:09,165
aspects is if he catches Covid,
he's just gonna pretty much be out.
404
00:20:09,165 --> 00:20:11,085
So, yeah, I put it out there.
405
00:20:11,175 --> 00:20:13,695
But remember, he's, he's
immunized, remember?
406
00:20:13,700 --> 00:20:14,715
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
407
00:20:14,715 --> 00:20:18,195
Is he immunized from dying as
vague of a term as that was?
408
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:18,655
Yeah.
409
00:20:18,659 --> 00:20:18,885
Yeah.
410
00:20:19,905 --> 00:20:24,335
. Well, you know, uh, again, uh, it is
free agency all around the league O.
411
00:20:25,500 --> 00:20:28,679
It's probably gonna be a lot of
movement before it's all said and done.
412
00:20:28,770 --> 00:20:29,010
Yeah.
413
00:20:29,070 --> 00:20:31,530
March 15th gonna be a
lot of activity going on.
414
00:20:31,530 --> 00:20:31,770
Right.
415
00:20:32,460 --> 00:20:33,389
All right, guys.
416
00:20:33,389 --> 00:20:35,669
When we get back, we're gonna
talk a little bit more about the
417
00:20:35,675 --> 00:20:38,590
Washington Commanders and Dan Snyder.
418
00:20:48,945 --> 00:20:53,024
Why would you hold onto a still old
auto policy when you have a fresh new
419
00:20:53,030 --> 00:20:57,495
car, new ride, new you, new plan, right?

And, uh, don't forget to
share it with a friend.
443
00:22:43,965 --> 00:22:44,145
Yeah.
444
00:22:44,145 --> 00:22:45,615
Um, that's a great way
to support the show.
445
00:22:45,795 --> 00:22:47,025
No doubt about it.
446
00:22:47,565 --> 00:22:51,645
So, uh, OG we was talking about free
agency, and before we go into the,
447
00:22:51,705 --> 00:22:56,415
uh, Dan Snyder, You, you mentioned
a good point to me and you brother.
448
00:22:56,415 --> 00:22:56,775
Of course I did.
449
00:22:57,735 --> 00:22:58,225
. Yeah.
450
00:22:58,225 --> 00:22:59,085
You the smart one, right?
451
00:22:59,895 --> 00:23:04,095
Uh, we were talking about Derek Carl,
would he be a good fit in Atlanta?
452
00:23:04,095 --> 00:23:09,625
And I told you that I don't think that
he would be a good fit for us considering
453
00:23:09,625 --> 00:23:11,715
the, the way Arthur Smith operates.
454
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,475
I, I just don't think he is
accurate as we need him to be.
455
00:23:14,745 --> 00:23:18,915
And then we, we did another fit guy,
you know, we had that with Marietta.
456
00:23:18,915 --> 00:23:23,355
Now it's time to, in my opinion, it's time
to get that, that franchise quarterback
457
00:23:23,355 --> 00:23:25,155
and, and start doing other things.
458
00:23:25,155 --> 00:23:28,845
You know, my, my only cut to that is
we didn't have an accuracy guy with
459
00:23:28,845 --> 00:23:33,225
Marietta either, or, I mean, Ritter's,
it's still right's still very new, right?
460
00:23:33,435 --> 00:23:38,625
I think, I think D Derek hard did
well in Vegas with a good running
461
00:23:38,625 --> 00:23:43,125
game, which we have and, and decent
wide receivers we also have, and
462
00:23:43,515 --> 00:23:45,195
he's not the most mobile quarterback.
463
00:23:45,195 --> 00:23:48,915
That may be a problem, just cuz
Atlanta protection is not the best.
464
00:23:48,975 --> 00:23:49,275
Right.
465
00:23:49,395 --> 00:23:50,385
But I, I think.
466
00:23:51,014 --> 00:23:55,065
I think if the price is right, I
think he could be a good, a good
467
00:23:55,065 --> 00:23:56,805
bandaid for a good couple of years.
468
00:23:57,075 --> 00:24:03,315
But a, a again, o gee, I, um, we,
I'm tired of bandaid, you know,
469
00:24:04,125 --> 00:24:05,535
personally I'm tired of bandaid.
470
00:24:06,135 --> 00:24:08,595
It's ti this is year
three of Arthur Smith.
471
00:24:08,915 --> 00:24:14,895
It, it, it is time to, to, uh, cross
some ts and dot some i's because, you
472
00:24:14,895 --> 00:24:18,465
know, you in the N F nfl and like JK
said, if you don't win in this league,
473
00:24:18,470 --> 00:24:20,085
he gonna be selling groceries, right?
474
00:24:20,504 --> 00:24:24,705
. So, you know, you know, you just, it
is time to get that franchise guy,
475
00:24:24,710 --> 00:24:28,635
whether it's going be Rita or whether
you going, uh, get one in the draft or
476
00:24:28,639 --> 00:24:30,014
whether you gonna make a trade for one.
477
00:24:30,014 --> 00:24:33,735
It's time we, it's time for us to
get off that we need a quarterback
478
00:24:33,735 --> 00:24:37,125
thing because you got so many
other things you gotta deal with.
479
00:24:37,129 --> 00:24:41,805
So, um, I, again, I would like
to see us get that franchise
480
00:24:41,805 --> 00:24:43,485
guy and start dealing with.
481
00:24:44,175 --> 00:24:46,875
Uh, defensive ends, defensive tackles.
482
00:24:47,205 --> 00:24:49,395
We, uh, still need a offensive guard.
483
00:24:49,395 --> 00:24:52,095
We don't know if we gonna bring
Caleb McCay back at Wright Tackle.
484
00:24:52,754 --> 00:24:58,875
So, you know, and this cat is, is
warranted 70 million this year.
485
00:25:00,135 --> 00:25:03,915
That's, that's hard to believe, but
yeah, he can get that on the open market.
486
00:25:04,125 --> 00:25:04,455
Yeah.
487
00:25:04,605 --> 00:25:09,915
I, I just, I'm, we, I, we thought we were
looking for a franchise guy last year.
488
00:25:10,004 --> 00:25:10,544
Here we are.
489
00:25:10,550 --> 00:25:13,034
One year later, we the same conversation.
490
00:25:13,185 --> 00:25:14,475
Ah, we need a franchise quarterback.
491
00:25:14,534 --> 00:25:16,695
Well, let's pick one and stick with it.
492
00:25:16,695 --> 00:25:18,105
And if it's Ritter, great.
493
00:25:18,105 --> 00:25:18,825
Let's do it.
494
00:25:18,825 --> 00:25:19,095
Yeah.
495
00:25:19,245 --> 00:25:22,274
But we gotta, we gotta pick something.
496
00:25:22,335 --> 00:25:22,575
Yes.
497
00:25:22,575 --> 00:25:23,475
We gotta pick a direction.
498
00:25:23,504 --> 00:25:24,825
It's time to make a decision.
499
00:25:25,335 --> 00:25:25,725
Alright.
500
00:25:25,725 --> 00:25:30,345
Talking about, uh, Daniel Schneider,
the, uh, commander's owner.
501
00:25:30,764 --> 00:25:31,435
Alright.
502
00:25:32,175 --> 00:25:34,995
He's been in the league, I forget
how many, it's been a quite a few
503
00:25:34,995 --> 00:25:40,365
years and there's been all kind of
controversy surrounding him for years.
504
00:25:41,294 --> 00:25:45,555
Uh, You think the owners are fed
up with him and ready to move on?
505
00:25:45,645 --> 00:25:46,095
Yeah.
506
00:25:46,395 --> 00:25:50,625
And, and they have been for a couple
years, but recently just some, some,
507
00:25:50,655 --> 00:25:55,875
some more dirt surfaced about some,
you know, loan and, and just it's,
508
00:25:55,875 --> 00:26:00,015
he's using the commander's money as
a personal piggy bank and mm-hmm.
509
00:26:00,165 --> 00:26:01,365
, all this other stuff.
510
00:26:01,395 --> 00:26:06,645
And he kind of, it looks like he was
a bit of a shady dealer in the form of
511
00:26:06,650 --> 00:26:08,745
getting this 55 million loan mm-hmm.
512
00:26:09,315 --> 00:26:13,965
. And at the same time, the other owners
don't really like him because he paid a
513
00:26:13,965 --> 00:26:18,405
couple years ago, he paid people to try
and kind of get dirt on the other owners.
514
00:26:18,410 --> 00:26:18,745
Right, right.
515
00:26:18,945 --> 00:26:23,025
So like, it's like one of their own,
you know, they don't want it, it
516
00:26:23,025 --> 00:26:26,065
just be like me trying to find out
secrets on like, you don't Yeah.
517
00:26:26,065 --> 00:26:28,455
Don't want that on, on one of
your own to be doing that to you.
518
00:26:28,455 --> 00:26:32,715
That's just so he's not exactly, um,
best friends with all the owners,
519
00:26:32,715 --> 00:26:33,945
they probably want him out now.
520
00:26:33,945 --> 00:26:36,675
This is all the more
reason just to be done.
521
00:26:37,305 --> 00:26:37,605
Yeah.
522
00:26:37,665 --> 00:26:39,495
I, I find it very funny that.
523
00:26:40,905 --> 00:26:43,035
When he told him he had that dirt on him.
524
00:26:43,605 --> 00:26:45,945
Everything settled down there
for a minute, didn't it?
525
00:26:47,325 --> 00:26:47,504
Yeah.
526
00:26:47,955 --> 00:26:53,504
I mean it, you know, it
got real quiet that Yeah.
527
00:26:53,504 --> 00:26:56,595
The thing about that is, um, yeah,
you can make your anatomy enemy, you
528
00:26:56,595 --> 00:27:00,415
can have, you know, a little dirt on
one person here, one person there.
529
00:27:00,645 --> 00:27:05,895
But when you got that many people
willing to form a union against you, you
530
00:27:06,465 --> 00:27:08,715
probably did something wrong, I'm sure.
531
00:27:08,715 --> 00:27:13,665
But I'm sure that throughout the
league, most, most of all those owners
532
00:27:14,245 --> 00:27:17,325
are, are playing, uh, a dirty game.
533
00:27:18,405 --> 00:27:19,545
Let's, let's be honest.
534
00:27:19,575 --> 00:27:20,385
Let's be honest.
535
00:27:20,385 --> 00:27:22,785
And y'all, if y'all don't
agree with it, that's fine.
536
00:27:23,595 --> 00:27:25,095
Most people like that.
537
00:27:25,095 --> 00:27:26,295
That's in the 1%.
538
00:27:27,135 --> 00:27:28,685
They didn't get all that, honestly.
539
00:27:28,785 --> 00:27:29,955
Oh, yeah, of course not.
540
00:27:30,254 --> 00:27:30,585
Okay.
541
00:27:30,585 --> 00:27:31,405
I could touch you that.
542
00:27:31,405 --> 00:27:36,225
So, so you know that they playing
them dirty games amongst all their
543
00:27:36,225 --> 00:27:38,295
peers because that's what they do.
544
00:27:39,405 --> 00:27:39,824
Yeah.
545
00:27:39,945 --> 00:27:43,004
The thing about him in particular
is, I don't understand.
546
00:27:43,004 --> 00:27:44,655
You're worth four and
a half billion dollars.
547
00:27:45,254 --> 00:27:47,564
Why do you need another 55 million?
548
00:27:48,314 --> 00:27:48,855
Like, what is that?
549
00:27:48,915 --> 00:27:50,774
How is that gonna change your life, dude?
550
00:27:50,774 --> 00:27:51,195
Like, come on.
551
00:27:51,195 --> 00:27:52,754
Yeah, that's just, that's just them.
552
00:27:53,345 --> 00:27:53,695
Og.
553
00:27:53,745 --> 00:27:58,784
You know, the other thing, couple years
ago he got himself into some trouble
554
00:27:58,814 --> 00:28:05,175
with some sexual harassment claims, and
also remember, His, his president of
555
00:28:05,175 --> 00:28:07,754
football operations was the one that
exchanged emails with John Gruden.
556
00:28:07,754 --> 00:28:08,715
With the Russell stuff.
557
00:28:08,735 --> 00:28:09,014
Right.
558
00:28:09,014 --> 00:28:09,465
So, right.
559
00:28:09,495 --> 00:28:11,774
So like there's a, we
got a track record here.
560
00:28:11,835 --> 00:28:12,135
Right.
561
00:28:12,195 --> 00:28:16,125
And, and he hired a woman coach
to, you know, he's the first to
562
00:28:16,125 --> 00:28:19,514
hire a, a, you know, a female
woman coach of color and Right.
563
00:28:20,385 --> 00:28:23,295
That's a bandaid on the, but
the guy guy's toxic to the game.
564
00:28:23,325 --> 00:28:23,655
Yeah.
565
00:28:23,715 --> 00:28:28,545
And I am glad that in the N F L
the, you know, like we talked about
566
00:28:28,545 --> 00:28:31,935
with Moe a couple weeks ago with
N B A, that you're, you have to
567
00:28:31,935 --> 00:28:33,764
protect the shield at all times.
568
00:28:33,825 --> 00:28:34,004
Yeah.
569
00:28:34,095 --> 00:28:34,895
And that's what they're doing.
570
00:28:34,895 --> 00:28:37,635
And, and that's why the N F
L has the power to basically
571
00:28:37,635 --> 00:28:39,735
force the sale of a team.
572
00:28:40,774 --> 00:28:43,470
. And whereas the nba,
it's a little different.
573
00:28:43,770 --> 00:28:48,600
Yeah, they, well, they kinda sorta
of, I mean, they forced, uh, that
574
00:28:48,605 --> 00:28:49,710
sale of the Clippers remember.
575
00:28:49,950 --> 00:28:50,280
True.
576
00:28:50,580 --> 00:28:56,760
So, you know, and I just think, uh, but
it's gonna be a process to get him out.
577
00:28:56,820 --> 00:28:57,179
Right?
578
00:28:58,139 --> 00:28:58,679
Yeah.
579
00:28:58,919 --> 00:29:01,649
I mean, it's never easy, but
they're forcing the sale.
580
00:29:01,649 --> 00:29:06,480
He did actually list his house
in Maryland, so I'm sure he's,
581
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:08,220
he knows the end embassy.
582
00:29:08,220 --> 00:29:10,110
I I'm sure they've got enough there.
583
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,240
Maybe there's more than we know about it.
584
00:29:12,245 --> 00:29:12,929
Right, right, right.
585
00:29:12,929 --> 00:29:15,149
He, I feel like he knows the end is here.
586
00:29:15,149 --> 00:29:20,700
It's not like he can fight and, and,
you know, keep it, well go back og and
587
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:25,260
if you don't mind research a little bit
some of the stuff that, that he had.
588
00:29:25,260 --> 00:29:26,580
Do you, do you remember that?
589
00:29:27,419 --> 00:29:27,659
Yeah.
590
00:29:27,665 --> 00:29:30,480
Let me, uh, let me do
that real quick here.
591
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:30,810
All right.
592
00:29:30,810 --> 00:29:31,860
I've got a list.
593
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:36,929
And Dick thoughts on, uh, some
you, you are owner in the league.
594
00:29:37,685 --> 00:29:41,745
and you've done some shady stuff and
they wanting, they want, they, all the
595
00:29:41,745 --> 00:29:44,985
other owners coming together and saying,
look man, it's time for you to go.
596
00:29:44,985 --> 00:29:46,545
How you, how would you feel about that?
597
00:29:46,875 --> 00:29:50,655
Uh, I mean, you gotta remember
they're coming in with a
598
00:29:51,125 --> 00:29:53,745
attitude of perpetual saltiness.
599
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:53,835
Mm-hmm.
600
00:29:54,260 --> 00:29:57,135
just perpetual entitlement and all that.
601
00:29:57,585 --> 00:29:58,845
They can't be told what to do.
602
00:29:59,295 --> 00:30:02,235
But if it were me, I mean, I
figure I've done enough shady
603
00:30:02,235 --> 00:30:03,495
stuff in my life and I'm poor.
604
00:30:03,795 --> 00:30:04,965
So yeah.
605
00:30:05,055 --> 00:30:08,415
Maybe they, um, yeah, I, I probably
feel some sort of way about it
606
00:30:08,505 --> 00:30:09,495
to be quite honest with you.
607
00:30:09,735 --> 00:30:15,105
I mean, but you know, don't you
think that rich people feel like
608
00:30:15,105 --> 00:30:18,795
they can get away with whatever they
want to get away with ? Oh yeah.
609
00:30:18,905 --> 00:30:20,235
That's how they, that's how they got Rich.
610
00:30:20,265 --> 00:30:23,625
I mean, that's a whole nother podcast, but
yeah, that's how they got where they are.
611
00:30:23,895 --> 00:30:30,465
It's funny cuz I, I just heard about this
statistic that it's less than like 12% of
612
00:30:30,465 --> 00:30:32,985
like billionaires or something like that.
613
00:30:33,525 --> 00:30:36,255
Uh, didn't get their
money from inheritance.
614
00:30:36,810 --> 00:30:37,350
Or something.
615
00:30:37,410 --> 00:30:37,770
Yeah.
616
00:30:37,770 --> 00:30:38,100
Yeah.
617
00:30:38,100 --> 00:30:42,840
And then like another 30%,
uh, didn't add anything to the
618
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:43,710
fortune or something like that.
619
00:30:43,710 --> 00:30:43,920
Right.
620
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,530
It's just, it is what it is.
621
00:30:46,530 --> 00:30:47,700
Like these people aren't geniuses.
622
00:30:47,700 --> 00:30:49,740
They were just born in
the right area code.
623
00:30:49,740 --> 00:30:50,040
So.
624
00:30:51,030 --> 00:30:51,480
Yeah.
625
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:56,400
Well, I'll tell you what, uh, we going,
we gonna take a break right here, and
626
00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:00,570
when we come back, we gonna have some
dirt on Daniel Snyder, some of the
627
00:31:00,570 --> 00:31:03,030
stuff he did, and then you at home.
628
00:31:03,730 --> 00:31:06,780
You, you know, I'm sure you'll
have an opinion about it
629
00:31:06,780 --> 00:31:08,670
as well back in the minute.
630
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:30,840
Why would you hold onto a still old
auto policy when you have a fresh new
631
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:35,310
car, new ride, new you, new plan, right?

Uh, but we're, our conversation is

00:33:16,575 --> 00:33:21,045
the Washington Commanders and some
of the shady stuff he's done, and
652
00:33:21,495 --> 00:33:25,695
OG has got us a little, uh, intel
on some of the stuff he's done.
653
00:33:26,205 --> 00:33:26,505
Yeah.
654
00:33:26,505 --> 00:33:32,265
So Gene State's been, has been, uh,
the now commander's, former Redskins
655
00:33:32,325 --> 00:33:38,685
owner since 99, so, you know, 20
or, um, yeah, 20, 23 ish years.
656
00:33:39,405 --> 00:33:43,335
And he's had a number of scandals
in the last couple of years.
657
00:33:43,395 --> 00:33:49,335
So it, it started back in 2020
with some, you know, racial,
658
00:33:49,335 --> 00:33:51,955
but more, more specifically 22.
659
00:33:52,530 --> 00:33:55,170
Female employees stepped
forward about sexual harassment.
660
00:33:55,380 --> 00:34:01,740
So toxic workplace, N F L launches
an investigation and it appeared like
661
00:34:01,740 --> 00:34:07,260
Daniel Schneider hired some folks to
maybe interfere with or slow down the
662
00:34:07,265 --> 00:34:12,760
investigation, Uhhuh . Um, but also
of those, he had several players, uh,
663
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,380
uh, several employees sign nda, so
non-disclosure agreements so that they
664
00:34:16,380 --> 00:34:18,389
couldn't talk about any of those issues.
665
00:34:18,389 --> 00:34:21,240
And during the investigation,
that was the whole thing.
666
00:34:21,780 --> 00:34:27,510
But then we, we fast forward a bit and,
and we're, we're talking about, um,
667
00:34:31,020 --> 00:34:35,700
and so, so we we're talking then
about, uh, the whole John Gruin thing,
668
00:34:35,700 --> 00:34:37,139
that, that certainly played into that.
669
00:34:37,139 --> 00:34:39,389
But then there's the
whole financial piece.
670
00:34:39,420 --> 00:34:39,659
Yeah.
671
00:34:39,750 --> 00:34:42,659
And so there was a time where Snyder had.
672
00:34:44,475 --> 00:34:48,074
Minority owners, of course, also
billionaires, but it was him
673
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,424
and three other minority owners.
674
00:34:49,424 --> 00:34:53,625
And those minority owners combined
had 40%, they had a 40% stake.
675
00:34:54,375 --> 00:35:00,585
Well, he's doing this, he took out this
55 million loan for whatever reason they
676
00:35:00,585 --> 00:35:04,964
didn't know about, but it was against the
team, but he was using it for himself.
677
00:35:05,025 --> 00:35:08,085
So personal use, Uhhuh , the
team didn't know about, or the,
678
00:35:08,174 --> 00:35:09,285
the owners didn't know about it.
679
00:35:09,285 --> 00:35:16,395
And then in 21, um, the N F NFL find
the team 10 million and basically
680
00:35:16,634 --> 00:35:20,295
told that Snyder would be stepping
away from day-to-day operations.
681
00:35:20,955 --> 00:35:22,214
well, that came and went.
682
00:35:22,214 --> 00:35:23,174
That didn't happen.
683
00:35:23,295 --> 00:35:30,194
Um, but man, we have like serious,
serious financial, you know, implications
684
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:35,595
going on here because he sued to force
the sale, uh, the, the minority owners
685
00:35:35,595 --> 00:35:37,964
to sell back to him and buy 'em out.
686
00:35:38,685 --> 00:35:41,595
And so he gave them, you know,
whatever the price was back then.
687
00:35:41,595 --> 00:35:46,380
Well, Right now, today, that's a
drastically lower number than it would
688
00:35:46,380 --> 00:35:50,790
be if, if, if the sale goes through,
like it's looking like they're gonna,
689
00:35:50,910 --> 00:35:54,840
they're gonna miss out on several, you
know, hundreds of millions of dollars.
690
00:35:54,845 --> 00:35:55,370
Ah-huh.
691
00:35:56,070 --> 00:35:58,500
. So all due to this $55 million.
692
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,830
These three guys are gonna miss out
on hundreds of millions of dollars.
693
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,890
Know that because he's, he's
borrowed money against the team.
694
00:36:04,890 --> 00:36:08,580
That's like, that's like using his
business to look, to take a loan out.
695
00:36:08,580 --> 00:36:08,670
Right.
696
00:36:08,675 --> 00:36:11,100
But using it for his own
personal bank account.
697
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:11,520
Right.
698
00:36:11,670 --> 00:36:12,360
You can't do that.
699
00:36:12,780 --> 00:36:20,070
And, and the other owners are in essence
coming together and saying he's doing bad
700
00:36:20,075 --> 00:36:24,390
business and we don't want That's, look,
that's up on the shield again, right?
701
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:24,780
Yep.
702
00:36:25,260 --> 00:36:28,080
Uh, and, and, and Dick,
what's your thoughts on that?
703
00:36:28,980 --> 00:36:30,720
Um, I don't know, man.
704
00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:36,855
It's, it's went from football to 3D chess
for a minute, so, It's hard to say, dude.
705
00:36:36,855 --> 00:36:40,425
I can see those guys being salty
about it because the principle of it
706
00:36:40,425 --> 00:36:44,355
is, yeah, these guys are part owners
of a team, but this guy went out of
707
00:36:44,355 --> 00:36:46,635
his way to kind of screw them over.
708
00:36:46,635 --> 00:36:48,135
So Yeah, I can, I can see them.
709
00:36:48,165 --> 00:36:48,285
Yeah.
710
00:36:48,585 --> 00:36:52,155
So 10 years ago he, he hires people
to dig up dirt on the other owners.
711
00:36:52,155 --> 00:36:54,645
That doesn't look good to
your other owner friends.
712
00:36:54,705 --> 00:36:54,855
Right.
713
00:36:55,125 --> 00:36:59,175
And then they can see in the last two
years he's had multiple, you know,
714
00:36:59,175 --> 00:37:01,845
harassment, um, claims against him.
715
00:37:01,845 --> 00:37:03,375
I mean, not just one or two, but Right.
716
00:37:03,645 --> 00:37:07,425
We're talking to Sean Watson, size,
uh, claim, you know, amount of claims.
717
00:37:07,755 --> 00:37:10,755
And then he is got all this financial
stuff, like all the other owners are
718
00:37:10,755 --> 00:37:12,705
saying, look, this guy's got a bad shop.
719
00:37:13,065 --> 00:37:14,415
He's got all these other issues.
720
00:37:14,415 --> 00:37:16,785
It's not just one thing,
it's, it's everything.
721
00:37:17,505 --> 00:37:18,525
We gotta get him out.
722
00:37:18,645 --> 00:37:18,975
Yeah.
723
00:37:18,975 --> 00:37:22,035
And so that's where
kind of it stands today.
724
00:37:22,035 --> 00:37:24,555
He's, he's likely gonna be forced out.
725
00:37:24,615 --> 00:37:24,945
Right.
726
00:37:25,395 --> 00:37:30,315
Uh, and another issue, uh, guys that
I wanna, uh, talk about is, They
727
00:37:30,315 --> 00:37:32,545
changed the name from the Redkin.
728
00:37:32,545 --> 00:37:34,965
Something that the commanders,
something that they said they'd
729
00:37:34,965 --> 00:37:36,135
never do, they'd never do.
730
00:37:36,135 --> 00:37:38,595
And then they were the Washington
football team for two seasons.
731
00:37:38,685 --> 00:37:38,805
Right.
732
00:37:38,805 --> 00:37:40,065
And now they're the commanders.
733
00:37:40,095 --> 00:37:48,435
And I'm sure that he did that
to appease, uh, people for the
734
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:49,935
cause of the stuff he was in.
735
00:37:50,715 --> 00:37:51,435
You understand?
736
00:37:51,645 --> 00:37:54,015
Because, you know, before he
said he wouldn't do it when,
737
00:37:54,345 --> 00:37:55,635
when we didn't know that much.
738
00:37:55,635 --> 00:37:57,675
But now he eased up on that.
739
00:37:57,885 --> 00:38:01,545
But you know, the thing is
the, um, the Native American
740
00:38:01,550 --> 00:38:03,165
culture, we're fine with it.
741
00:38:03,225 --> 00:38:05,025
We're fine with it cuz
it wasn't derogatory.
742
00:38:05,055 --> 00:38:05,325
Right.
743
00:38:05,325 --> 00:38:05,625
Right.
744
00:38:05,630 --> 00:38:10,965
But it's, it's all the, the, um, you
know, pundits, all the pundits that had
745
00:38:10,965 --> 00:38:16,125
all the issues with, oh well, you know,
it, it just, it's other people footing
746
00:38:16,125 --> 00:38:17,955
their opinion out on, on the norm.
747
00:38:18,015 --> 00:38:18,075
Yeah.
748
00:38:18,075 --> 00:38:21,765
And, and because he was in all this
other trouble, he thought that, hey,
749
00:38:21,765 --> 00:38:25,275
if we change the name, maybe that'll
help ease some of the tension.
750
00:38:25,305 --> 00:38:25,965
All of that.
751
00:38:27,255 --> 00:38:33,180
It's funny cuz um, I don't remember
hearing that the Native American community
752
00:38:33,450 --> 00:38:37,049
wasn't offended by it then how come?
753
00:38:37,140 --> 00:38:41,160
Uh, that'd be like, I was just saying
I didn't hear it, but, uh, did you get
754
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:42,299
a source or something on that, or what?
755
00:38:42,359 --> 00:38:46,410
Yeah, I re um, I, I could ha I'd have
to look it up, but I, I remember it
756
00:38:46,410 --> 00:38:51,029
being talked about on, you know, e s
ESPN or somewhere that, hey, it wasn't
757
00:38:51,029 --> 00:38:55,470
necessarily the Native American community
that was pushing the hardest for this.
758
00:38:55,475 --> 00:38:58,859
It was the SJWs, it, it was the who?
759
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,270
Social Justice Warriors.
760
00:39:00,299 --> 00:39:00,540
Oh, okay.
761
00:39:00,959 --> 00:39:01,140
Yes.
762
00:39:01,140 --> 00:39:01,979
You never heard of that before?
763
00:39:02,850 --> 00:39:07,410
Yeah, I have, but I, you know, not
the initials because it'd be like,
764
00:39:07,470 --> 00:39:10,589
like then how come the Atlanta Braves
are still called the Atlanta Braves?
765
00:39:10,589 --> 00:39:10,950
Right.
766
00:39:11,259 --> 00:39:14,819
And, and, and you know, did
you said that you know it come
767
00:39:14,819 --> 00:39:19,709
up with the Braves because the
Braves said this is what they did.
768
00:39:20,339 --> 00:39:24,240
Uh, they got that community
of Native Americans.
769
00:39:24,630 --> 00:39:27,300
They have a, a, I think
a Native American night.
770
00:39:27,300 --> 00:39:32,070
They do stuff within their community
to ease that tension to where the brave
771
00:39:32,070 --> 00:39:34,350
says We're not gonna change our name.
772
00:39:34,590 --> 00:39:41,040
And I think that gives them a
gateway to keeping that by, you
773
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:45,210
know, being in, with, with the Native
America and the, the logo change.
774
00:39:45,210 --> 00:39:47,160
Remember, cuz we used to have
the head with the headbands.
775
00:39:47,330 --> 00:39:47,810
Right?
776
00:39:47,810 --> 00:39:48,010
Right.
777
00:39:48,010 --> 00:39:49,230
And now, now it's the chop.
778
00:39:49,260 --> 00:39:49,620
Right.
779
00:39:49,710 --> 00:39:53,040
So, you know, just, just
distance ourselves from anything.
780
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:54,050
I mean Yeah.
781
00:39:54,300 --> 00:39:57,510
Fairness though, Braves could be anything.
782
00:39:57,510 --> 00:40:01,830
It doesn't necessarily have to be,
it's a, a bit of a broad definition for
783
00:40:01,830 --> 00:40:04,410
one word, where Redskins was specific.
784
00:40:05,265 --> 00:40:06,075
Native American.
785
00:40:06,075 --> 00:40:06,495
Yeah.
786
00:40:06,500 --> 00:40:07,245
Specifically.
787
00:40:07,305 --> 00:40:11,625
And then the, um, then you also have
like the Cleveland Indians, who I
788
00:40:11,625 --> 00:40:13,155
guess are gonna be the guardians now.
789
00:40:13,245 --> 00:40:13,455
Yes.
790
00:40:13,455 --> 00:40:13,545
Yeah.
791
00:40:13,550 --> 00:40:14,325
They're the guardians.
792
00:40:15,195 --> 00:40:19,195
I, I, I just, I mean, those
examples make sense to me.
793
00:40:19,195 --> 00:40:19,715
Mm-hmm.
794
00:40:19,795 --> 00:40:22,965
, the changing the Braves kind of
doesn't, you know what I mean?
795
00:40:22,965 --> 00:40:27,825
So even my high school, uh, they,
did, you know that Thunderbirds
796
00:40:27,825 --> 00:40:30,075
is a, a Native American symbol?
797
00:40:30,765 --> 00:40:32,955
I didn't know, but my high
school is a Thunderbirds.
798
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,145
They changed their name
to the Thunder, so, okay.
799
00:40:35,195 --> 00:40:35,635
Yeah.
800
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:35,865
Yeah.
801
00:40:36,015 --> 00:40:40,065
I mean, um, when you look at that,
that just tells you how different
802
00:40:40,065 --> 00:40:47,985
the world is today, wouldn't you say,
uh, what, 40 years ago, , you could
803
00:40:47,985 --> 00:40:52,155
about call a name, whatever you want
to call it, but you can't today.
804
00:40:53,175 --> 00:41:01,904
Cause it, it activates . A lot of
different, uh, potentially offensive.
805
00:41:01,965 --> 00:41:03,435
Yes, that's a good word.
806
00:41:03,435 --> 00:41:10,035
And I just, you know, you, we come
up with the Cleveland Indians, we
807
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:15,465
come up with the Washington Redskins,
and I, I guarantee you, most people
808
00:41:15,470 --> 00:41:19,965
didn't think nothing about it
because that's what we always knew.
809
00:41:20,415 --> 00:41:27,165
But on the flip side, uh, I can
see being a Native American and
810
00:41:27,165 --> 00:41:31,904
that would be offensive . Yeah.
811
00:41:31,910 --> 00:41:32,295
Yeah.
812
00:41:32,715 --> 00:41:37,215
You know, it's funny that you say that
cuz um, I, uh, I, I was thinking about
813
00:41:37,215 --> 00:41:41,085
this party when the, I was sitting at the
Super Bowl party when the Broncos had won.
814
00:41:41,625 --> 00:41:46,695
And, um, I was invited to the party
by, uh, a friend and her husband.
815
00:41:47,325 --> 00:41:51,630
Um, he stood up and he
said, um, That's right.
816
00:41:51,630 --> 00:41:54,690
You danced that jigga boo
dance or something like that.
817
00:41:54,695 --> 00:41:54,850
Oh.
818
00:41:54,855 --> 00:41:56,460
And being the only black guy at the party.
819
00:41:56,460 --> 00:41:56,580
Yeah.
820
00:41:56,580 --> 00:41:57,360
Everybody was quiet.
821
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,400
He looked at me, he was like,
Hey, I'm sorry about that.
822
00:41:59,700 --> 00:42:04,380
And I'm thinking I was, I was like,
it was so casual how he dropped that.
823
00:42:04,590 --> 00:42:05,100
Yeah.
824
00:42:05,340 --> 00:42:08,550
And then I remembered I live in America,
so people j casually dropped that.
825
00:42:08,610 --> 00:42:09,360
You know what I'm saying?
826
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:10,210
Just Yeah.
827
00:42:10,220 --> 00:42:13,770
Uh, and people know actually dropped
for so long, you know what I'm saying?
828
00:42:13,770 --> 00:42:14,250
Yeah.
829
00:42:14,250 --> 00:42:21,540
And, and you know, I mean, I, you know,
if you say something offensive because
830
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:27,450
you may say, Hey, og, look man, I'm
sorry, I, I didn't mean, uh, but I think,
831
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:34,740
I think in a lot of cases it's, it's,
it, it is inadvertent, but it's con part
832
00:42:34,740 --> 00:42:36,510
of conversation, but it's inadvertent.
833
00:42:36,510 --> 00:42:37,260
That makes sense.
834
00:42:37,290 --> 00:42:37,380
Mm-hmm.
835
00:42:37,830 --> 00:42:38,040
, yeah.
836
00:42:38,130 --> 00:42:39,000
You, you know what I mean?
837
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:43,350
And like, I didn't mean, and I,
I think some, for some people,
838
00:42:43,710 --> 00:42:45,270
they really don't mean that.
839
00:42:45,674 --> 00:42:45,975
Right.
840
00:42:46,035 --> 00:42:50,444
That, that, you know, and I, I think
the difference between the Indians,
841
00:42:50,444 --> 00:42:55,004
the Braves, and the Redskins is
because from what I understand,
842
00:42:55,095 --> 00:42:58,395
Redskins is a bit of a derogatory term.
843
00:42:58,424 --> 00:43:00,705
Very much versus versus the other ones.
844
00:43:00,734 --> 00:43:01,035
Yeah.
845
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:01,185
Yeah.
846
00:43:01,189 --> 00:43:06,435
So if we, if we look at other name changes
in major sports, we've got the Tampa
847
00:43:06,435 --> 00:43:08,535
Bay, they were used to be the Devil Rays.
848
00:43:08,535 --> 00:43:08,745
Right.
849
00:43:08,745 --> 00:43:09,584
And now they're the Rays.
850
00:43:09,615 --> 00:43:09,944
Right.
851
00:43:09,944 --> 00:43:10,995
I, I understand that.
852
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:11,895
I get, I understand that.
853
00:43:12,044 --> 00:43:15,345
And then we've got the, the
Washington Bullets who are now,
854
00:43:15,495 --> 00:43:19,424
um, the Wizards Wizard, the
Washington, I, I get that one too.
855
00:43:19,455 --> 00:43:20,294
Like that makes sense.
856
00:43:20,355 --> 00:43:20,535
Yeah.
857
00:43:20,935 --> 00:43:24,464
I maybe cuz it's the derogatory nature.
858
00:43:24,464 --> 00:43:29,384
I, I think that, but like the Indians
maybe, I don't necessarily understand
859
00:43:29,384 --> 00:43:33,794
that one as much, just because it's not
talking down about any, if anything it's
860
00:43:33,865 --> 00:43:35,384
kind, it's just talking about the people.
861
00:43:35,415 --> 00:43:35,774
Right.
862
00:43:35,779 --> 00:43:39,225
I, I think if anything
the, it was the caricature.
863
00:43:39,825 --> 00:43:40,595
Of the Cleveland Indian.
864
00:43:40,595 --> 00:43:44,145
And that could be, and that could be, I
think that was, that was a big, but again,
865
00:43:44,145 --> 00:43:45,915
the logo, cartoonish, that's the logo.
866
00:43:45,964 --> 00:43:47,895
It was, it was kind of excessive.
867
00:43:48,254 --> 00:43:48,855
Oh, okay.
868
00:43:49,395 --> 00:43:52,455
Well, you know, we can go on and
on about that and people gonna
869
00:43:52,455 --> 00:43:54,075
have different opinions about it.
870
00:43:54,075 --> 00:43:59,115
But, you know, I, I'm still not
with the Cleveland Guardians.
871
00:43:59,174 --> 00:44:02,475
I mean, that's, that right
there is still on me.
872
00:44:02,475 --> 00:44:07,455
And I, I, to me, that's
not a good baseball name.
873
00:44:07,515 --> 00:44:08,085
You know?
874
00:44:08,265 --> 00:44:14,685
I mean, what is at this point, , they
could be the, the, the Brown socks.
875
00:44:15,065 --> 00:44:16,395
. I just think, I just, yeah.
876
00:44:16,395 --> 00:44:19,305
But I just thought that they could have
put a little bit more thought in it.
877
00:44:19,484 --> 00:44:22,395
Like the, you know, you think the
name, the Cleveland Browns football
878
00:44:22,395 --> 00:44:25,785
team would be a, would had any
thought to, they don't even have an
879
00:44:25,785 --> 00:44:27,165
actual logo if you think about it.
880
00:44:27,194 --> 00:44:27,645
No, they don't.
881
00:44:27,865 --> 00:44:28,605
They're just named after a.
882
00:44:30,285 --> 00:44:31,604
Like, we're all with family.
883
00:44:31,694 --> 00:44:32,115
Yeah.
884
00:44:32,805 --> 00:44:33,825
That's up for discussion.
885
00:44:34,095 --> 00:44:37,365
But, so why not make your, your
name to the highest bidder?
886
00:44:37,455 --> 00:44:42,645
Like, you know, I'll be the, the, the,
uh, Cleveland, Allstate Insurance,
887
00:44:42,645 --> 00:44:47,234
you know, whatevers . Like, I'd take
the guardians over the Cleveland
888
00:44:47,234 --> 00:44:52,395
Allstate, or know whatever, insert
your, you know, your company, whatever.
889
00:44:52,395 --> 00:44:54,015
Like, why not do that?
890
00:44:54,015 --> 00:44:55,424
Then Why not the sluggers?
891
00:44:55,515 --> 00:44:58,455
I don't know, just some sort
of action sounding name.
892
00:44:58,725 --> 00:44:59,234
Okay.
893
00:44:59,984 --> 00:45:01,095
I mean, that ain't bad.
894
00:45:01,095 --> 00:45:02,205
The Cleveland Sluggers.
895
00:45:02,234 --> 00:45:03,884
I mean that, that, I like that.
896
00:45:04,055 --> 00:45:04,875
I, I really do.
897
00:45:04,875 --> 00:45:06,645
Because it's pertaining to baseball.
898
00:45:06,915 --> 00:45:07,694
Yes, this is true.
899
00:45:07,694 --> 00:45:08,115
This is true.
900
00:45:08,115 --> 00:45:11,865
You know, so that's not a, the
guardians, I mean, but what
901
00:45:11,865 --> 00:45:13,725
is, what is CBL known for?
902
00:45:14,415 --> 00:45:15,674
Outside of cheese?
903
00:45:15,765 --> 00:45:16,125
Nah.
904
00:45:16,125 --> 00:45:16,305
What?
905
00:45:16,305 --> 00:45:17,354
No, no, that's Wisconsin.
906
00:45:17,504 --> 00:45:17,774
Yeah.
907
00:45:17,774 --> 00:45:19,814
What, what they known
for og, they known for.
908
00:45:20,790 --> 00:45:24,779
The, the mustard that they put on hotdogs,
cuz I got some by the Cleveland Stadium.
909
00:45:25,319 --> 00:45:26,160
Wait, what?
910
00:45:26,549 --> 00:45:31,319
Yeah, that, that, that, it's that
different mustard that you get up there.
911
00:45:31,325 --> 00:45:34,290
I forget the name of it, but
I got some, a friend of mine
912
00:45:34,290 --> 00:45:36,540
brought me some and it is good.
913
00:45:36,629 --> 00:45:40,980
I mean, it's, that's what, you know,
they don't put ketchup on up there.
914
00:45:41,190 --> 00:45:41,520
Right?
915
00:45:42,180 --> 00:45:43,649
You do you remember that one show?

they bring him back in and arrest him.
981
00:49:42,570 --> 00:49:43,770
What, what, what's going on there?
982
00:49:43,830 --> 00:49:48,990
Yeah, I guess, I guess I'm trying
not to think too much into it as
983
00:49:48,990 --> 00:49:51,240
far as the timing of jaylen's.
984
00:49:51,330 --> 00:49:54,630
When, when these mis, you know, when
these became misdemeanors and it became
985
00:49:54,630 --> 00:50:01,110
a thing, it's right at the NFL combine
now, is that timing coincidental?
986
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:03,360
I, I like to think so.
987
00:50:04,170 --> 00:50:10,110
Um, look, nothing good happens at two
30 or whatever it was in the morning.
988
00:50:10,140 --> 00:50:12,630
I don't, I don't care how old
you are, nothing good happens.
989
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:18,150
And if he was just chasing like we,
like you said, off the off air, they'd
990
00:50:18,150 --> 00:50:19,740
sweep that under the rug, no problem.
991
00:50:19,830 --> 00:50:20,040
Right?
992
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:24,210
But because some folks got killed
and there's still questions that.
993
00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:25,740
Need to be answered.
994
00:50:25,860 --> 00:50:30,840
That's why this is a thing all,
well, why It's, it's a much
995
00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:33,840
bigger kind of thing in the media.
996
00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:35,520
You know, it's, it's a much bigger event.
997
00:50:36,090 --> 00:50:42,300
Um, but certainly Stetson, uh, was,
uh, partying a little too hard mm-hmm.
998
00:50:42,630 --> 00:50:44,850
and had a D U I arrest.
999
00:50:44,855 --> 00:50:47,970
I mean, look, the guy doesn't have
to buy a drink in Athens ever.
1000
00:50:48,060 --> 00:50:48,450
Never.
1001
00:50:48,540 --> 00:50:53,730
And so he was, uh, you know, he was
enjoying, uh, a night on the town and got
1002
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:55,770
arrested for a D U I a couple months ago.
1003
00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:03,210
So, look, the, this is not the first
time we've had a very successful program.
1004
00:51:03,450 --> 00:51:07,500
Have some, um, legal troubles
with some of their, their players.
1005
00:51:07,500 --> 00:51:11,700
I mean, we can look back at, I mean,
you name the program every, it seems
1006
00:51:11,700 --> 00:51:14,940
like there's, there's a, there'll be a
couple of, you know, you win a couple
1007
00:51:14,940 --> 00:51:18,030
championships and right around the corner
you'll have some players get in trouble.
1008
00:51:18,900 --> 00:51:19,920
Is it a culture thing?
1009
00:51:20,445 --> 00:51:25,935
No, but I think the football team
needs to make sure that in the future
1010
00:51:26,355 --> 00:51:27,945
they don't have anything like this.
1011
00:51:28,425 --> 00:51:28,755
Yeah.
1012
00:51:28,755 --> 00:51:34,815
I, I seen an article today where, uh,
the question came up was, uh, Kirby Smart
1013
00:51:35,025 --> 00:51:42,645
really doing his job now, and I, I get
out of that is, you know, is he, is he
1014
00:51:43,125 --> 00:51:49,605
keeping those guys from being so frisky
now a coach can only do so much End is the
1015
00:51:49,605 --> 00:51:51,675
off season and, and it's the off season.
1016
00:51:51,735 --> 00:51:56,265
Uh, there's another guy that got,
uh, pullover, I think not long
1017
00:51:56,565 --> 00:51:58,005
ago, another football player.
1018
00:51:58,005 --> 00:52:02,415
So, you know, you can try to put
that on a coach if you want to.
1019
00:52:02,415 --> 00:52:05,235
I'm sure he's telling them everything
that they need to know, but they
1020
00:52:05,235 --> 00:52:06,765
gonna still do what they wanna do.
1021
00:52:07,245 --> 00:52:11,475
Now, going back to, uh, Jalen
Carter, they, he came back in.
1022
00:52:13,515 --> 00:52:17,564
They arrested him, he was in jail for,
I don't know, 30 minutes, 30 seconds
1023
00:52:17,714 --> 00:52:21,044
or whatever, and then he gets back
out and he goes back to the combine.
1024
00:52:21,044 --> 00:52:27,404
But uh, the point is by this young
lady and the young man being killed,
1025
00:52:27,944 --> 00:52:31,935
see that stirs up a whole lot of,
cause he didn't, because from what
1026
00:52:31,935 --> 00:52:37,575
I understand, he didn't tell them
that he was there the first time.
1027
00:52:37,995 --> 00:52:38,685
You understand?
1028
00:52:39,285 --> 00:52:44,265
Then during the investigation
we found out he was there.
1029
00:52:44,535 --> 00:52:44,654
Yeah.
1030
00:52:44,654 --> 00:52:45,645
He left and came back.
1031
00:52:45,645 --> 00:52:46,875
He left and came back.
1032
00:52:47,115 --> 00:52:49,274
So that opens up another can of worms.
1033
00:52:49,544 --> 00:52:53,205
And then on the other hand, with
SSON Bennett, what he did, they, wow.
1034
00:52:53,745 --> 00:52:55,995
As long as SSON didn't get hurt,
they probably welcome that.
1035
00:52:56,115 --> 00:52:58,605
Cause they can get, they can
be done with that pretty quick.
1036
00:52:58,845 --> 00:52:59,055
Right.
1037
00:52:59,115 --> 00:53:01,674
But right here we got a whole
nother thing that's probably
1038
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:02,924
gonna drag on for a minute.
1039
00:53:03,975 --> 00:53:08,475
Now, will that affect his
status for the N F L draft?
1040
00:53:09,090 --> 00:53:09,420
Yeah.
1041
00:53:09,510 --> 00:53:10,110
A hundred percent.
1042
00:53:10,230 --> 00:53:10,740
Yes.
1043
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:15,840
And, and I say that because I, I don't
think we will, we'll have a finalized,
1044
00:53:16,050 --> 00:53:20,370
you know, outcome and it, there'll
still be a lot of unknowns and Jaylen
1045
00:53:20,375 --> 00:53:23,340
won't be able to say anything because
it's a open legal investigation.
1046
00:53:23,370 --> 00:53:23,460
Right.
1047
00:53:23,460 --> 00:53:25,710
And so his lawyer will say, oh,
you can't say anything about it.
1048
00:53:26,070 --> 00:53:27,930
So it, it's a character issue.
1049
00:53:28,260 --> 00:53:31,560
You know, one he, that he's in this
mess in the first place, right?
1050
00:53:31,565 --> 00:53:31,660
Right.
1051
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:36,210
But also he's, he's interviewing
for jobs essentially.
1052
00:53:36,240 --> 00:53:36,510
Right.
1053
00:53:36,690 --> 00:53:38,940
And for a lot of money,
for a lot of money.
1054
00:53:38,940 --> 00:53:42,840
And millions and millions of
dollars are going, he's gonna
1055
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:44,070
lose millions of dollars.
1056
00:53:44,075 --> 00:53:45,930
He just lost them when they around him.
1057
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:50,010
His, he just lo started
losing as millions of dollars.
1058
00:53:50,010 --> 00:53:54,600
Cause he gonna go down in the
draft and he's getting bombarded
1059
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:58,980
by all them coaches, by all
those teams about his character.
1060
00:53:59,280 --> 00:53:59,730
Yes.
1061
00:54:00,210 --> 00:54:02,730
And, and, and he's gotta answer that.
1062
00:54:03,435 --> 00:54:06,765
In the best way he can and they
gonna bring that up, I'm sure.
1063
00:54:07,225 --> 00:54:11,174
Uh, that, because they probably
can't ask him specifically about it.
1064
00:54:11,265 --> 00:54:11,625
Right.
1065
00:54:11,685 --> 00:54:15,975
But they're gonna ask about his character,
that that's their, everybody's gonna
1066
00:54:15,975 --> 00:54:19,754
know that that's the, the right way to
the correct way to ask that question.
1067
00:54:20,714 --> 00:54:24,855
One of the things that kind of gets me,
and I don't, this has never been answered.
1068
00:54:25,125 --> 00:54:30,345
What was he doing with a nearly
$100,000 vehicle as a college student?
1069
00:54:30,555 --> 00:54:31,785
Well, I'll answer that for you.
1070
00:54:31,845 --> 00:54:32,174
Yeah.
1071
00:54:32,895 --> 00:54:37,575
He plays football on a national
championship team that just
1072
00:54:37,575 --> 00:54:39,165
won their second title.
1073
00:54:40,185 --> 00:54:48,345
He's probably got a N I L deal and he
probably got the n i, uh, n i l money and
1074
00:54:48,345 --> 00:54:51,165
the car , if you want to know the truth.
1075
00:54:51,254 --> 00:54:51,645
Okay.
1076
00:54:51,915 --> 00:54:55,605
I mean, I'm not, I'm not, you
know, emphasizing anything now I'm
1077
00:54:55,609 --> 00:54:58,875
just saying that that's kind of an
expensive vehicle for a student.
1078
00:54:58,935 --> 00:54:59,234
Yeah.
1079
00:54:59,234 --> 00:55:00,404
That's how they get that.
1080
00:55:00,410 --> 00:55:00,555
Yeah.
1081
00:55:01,350 --> 00:55:01,830
Broy.
1082
00:55:01,830 --> 00:55:05,010
James got a n i L deal, 7.5 million.
1083
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:05,730
Come on.
1084
00:55:06,090 --> 00:55:12,870
I mean, 60 million of, of that is his name
though, so, uh, yeah, but still I, it is
1085
00:55:12,875 --> 00:55:16,500
just, it's just 7.5 million and Come on.
1086
00:55:16,830 --> 00:55:17,130
No.
1087
00:55:17,135 --> 00:55:20,400
So going back to the topic though,
it, it all used to happen, but now
1088
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:21,520
the n I l they can do it legally.
1089
00:55:21,750 --> 00:55:22,590
They can do it legally.
1090
00:55:22,590 --> 00:55:23,340
That's the only thing.
1091
00:55:23,340 --> 00:55:24,310
They, they, they can do it.
1092
00:55:24,310 --> 00:55:28,050
And, and those guys shop and, and, and
I'm sure that's what happened with Jaylen.
1093
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:28,320
Yeah.
1094
00:55:28,470 --> 00:55:32,790
But, but, but to, to get back to it,
so the coaches are gonna ask him about
1095
00:55:32,790 --> 00:55:38,190
his character, how can he look them
in the eye and answer that, because
1096
00:55:38,670 --> 00:55:40,080
these N NFL guys are no dummies.
1097
00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:44,490
They've, they've been down the road a
long time and they some way, so it seems
1098
00:55:44,490 --> 00:55:48,120
like they can, they can investigate
their own and figure a lot of things out.
1099
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:49,190
And so they probably.
1100
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:52,770
Pretty much what happened, but
it's really, if Jaylen kind of
1101
00:55:52,860 --> 00:55:57,060
tells the right story, they'll
know that he's up front and honest.
1102
00:55:57,060 --> 00:56:00,900
But if he's wishy-washy or, or
leave up things, that's an issue
1103
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:02,670
that's gonna cost him a draft pick.
1104
00:56:02,850 --> 00:56:03,450
Correct.
1105
00:56:03,455 --> 00:56:07,710
And they'll ask him point blank, Jaylen,
do you have some character issues?
1106
00:56:08,370 --> 00:56:09,870
They'll ask him like that.
1107
00:56:10,259 --> 00:56:17,070
Now what if say, og, he's gonna
say, no, I am, I'm taking care of
1108
00:56:17,070 --> 00:56:19,380
my legal issues and it'll come back.
1109
00:56:19,380 --> 00:56:22,170
That I'll be exonerated and I
will be, well, you know what?
1110
00:56:22,170 --> 00:56:24,779
Whatever he's gonna, but
it'll be, I'm a great person.
1111
00:56:25,140 --> 00:56:29,910
It honestly, I think it, it's not gonna
matter what he says because what's gonna
1112
00:56:29,910 --> 00:56:34,170
happen is those guys have already, whoever
is planning on drafting him has already
1113
00:56:34,170 --> 00:56:38,850
made in their mind that, hey, now we
can get him for cheap because we can use
1114
00:56:38,850 --> 00:56:43,200
this as leverage over him and we'll use
it as leverage to keep his nose clean.
1115
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:48,720
What that, that's true now, but,
but this is the, this is the thing.
1116
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:50,130
Okay.
1117
00:56:50,550 --> 00:56:54,150
If he went from, he was potentially
gonna be the first player chosen
1118
00:56:54,420 --> 00:56:57,120
yet Lions at two or three, I
think really had their eye on him.
1119
00:56:57,150 --> 00:56:57,660
Okay.
1120
00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:00,180
And the Atlanta Falcons ought
to have their eye on him too.
1121
00:57:00,180 --> 00:57:00,930
We at eight.
1122
00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:05,130
Now, I don't know how you could shake
and jive and chew them, but if I'm
1123
00:57:05,130 --> 00:57:10,590
the Atlanta Falcon, he's in my radar
because I know I can get him cheaper.
1124
00:57:10,710 --> 00:57:11,100
Yes.
1125
00:57:11,130 --> 00:57:11,700
You understand?
1126
00:57:11,790 --> 00:57:14,580
He's more likely to fall, to
still be available, to still be,
1127
00:57:14,670 --> 00:57:19,140
he he gonna be gone before the
eighth spot or at the eighth spot.
1128
00:57:19,770 --> 00:57:22,320
I mean, he, he, he ain't
gonna drop out of the top 10.
1129
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:22,830
Oh yeah.
1130
00:57:22,835 --> 00:57:25,980
There's definitely gonna be a,
a behavior clause on him also.
1131
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:26,220
Yeah.
1132
00:57:26,220 --> 00:57:30,600
I mean, it would be nice if he
ended up in Atlanta, um, because
1133
00:57:30,660 --> 00:57:31,980
he won't have that far to go.
1134
00:57:31,980 --> 00:57:35,130
They already know, you know, what's,
what's the whole deal with him?
1135
00:57:35,580 --> 00:57:36,600
We could use the help.
1136
00:57:37,020 --> 00:57:39,090
Uh, so yeah, it would work out.
1137
00:57:39,180 --> 00:57:42,060
But I'm gonna tell you, if I'm the
Atlanta Falcons and he drops down to
1138
00:57:42,060 --> 00:57:43,890
number eight, I'm forgetting everything.
1139
00:57:43,890 --> 00:57:44,759
I'm drafting him.
1140
00:57:44,910 --> 00:57:45,419
Period.
1141
00:57:45,839 --> 00:57:46,799
Yeah, because Yeah.
1142
00:57:46,950 --> 00:57:47,310
Yeah.
1143
00:57:47,310 --> 00:57:47,759
Think about it.
1144
00:57:47,759 --> 00:57:50,970
Because there's other quarterbacks,
you know, the other, the main
1145
00:57:50,970 --> 00:57:52,169
ones are gonna be gone anyway.
1146
00:57:52,620 --> 00:57:52,799
Yeah.
1147
00:57:52,830 --> 00:57:57,330
And, and I'm drafting him at eight cause I
know he can come right in and help me now.
1148
00:57:57,359 --> 00:57:58,830
And we have a need in that.
1149
00:57:58,830 --> 00:57:59,799
And that's a need.
1150
00:58:00,850 --> 00:58:03,629
We don't need a wide receiver, we
don't need, you know, running back.
1151
00:58:03,629 --> 00:58:04,470
We, we got that.
1152
00:58:04,500 --> 00:58:04,830
Yeah.
1153
00:58:04,919 --> 00:58:07,589
We, we need somebody just stop somebody.
1154
00:58:07,740 --> 00:58:12,569
But do you really think he's
going to still be a top 10 pick?
1155
00:58:12,660 --> 00:58:13,080
Yes.
1156
00:58:13,649 --> 00:58:14,189
Yes, I do.
1157
00:58:14,819 --> 00:58:20,129
I do think he might go from one to nine
or one to 10, but I think, I still think
1158
00:58:20,134 --> 00:58:23,939
he'll be a top 10 pick because he's
that good And they, they, everybody
1159
00:58:23,939 --> 00:58:25,830
got him on their board rated high.
1160
00:58:26,310 --> 00:58:26,580
Mm.
1161
00:58:27,015 --> 00:58:31,935
And once, and they got lawyers
telling them what could happen to him.
1162
00:58:32,235 --> 00:58:35,595
You know, those teams, they got their
own lawyers looking into that case,
1163
00:58:35,775 --> 00:58:38,445
saying, now if he does this, they do this.
1164
00:58:38,654 --> 00:58:41,295
So they, they got a good
mark on what could happen.
1165
00:58:41,295 --> 00:58:45,645
I'm sure his contract will be, uh,
very detailed, I'm sure clauses
1166
00:58:45,645 --> 00:58:48,075
and, you know, like, like said
the behavior clause and all that.
1167
00:58:48,255 --> 00:58:51,705
I'm sure, I mean, unless they decide
to use his, uh, driver's license
1168
00:58:51,705 --> 00:58:56,505
pick as a, um, mug, mugshot, but,
you know, it's all, whatever.
1169
00:58:57,795 --> 00:59:01,395
At any rate, you know, long as he don't
go to jail, he gonna play in the nfl.
1170
00:59:01,555 --> 00:59:01,965
I agree.
1171
00:59:01,965 --> 00:59:03,765
I mean, he gon, he may still play.
1172
00:59:03,795 --> 00:59:05,055
If he go still, he may still play.
1173
00:59:05,355 --> 00:59:07,275
Well, there're gonna be some fines.
1174
00:59:07,815 --> 00:59:11,475
He might have to do some
community service first offense.
1175
00:59:11,535 --> 00:59:13,005
Think about that first offense.
1176
00:59:13,665 --> 00:59:15,674
And, and did he have something to do?
1177
00:59:15,705 --> 00:59:18,674
The girl was, uh, who, whoever
was driving the other car wreck on
1178
00:59:18,674 --> 00:59:20,805
their own, did he cause the wreck?
1179
00:59:20,805 --> 00:59:21,855
That's gonna be a question.
1180
00:59:22,065 --> 00:59:24,325
I mean, whether he caused
the wreck or not, he was.
1181
00:59:25,155 --> 00:59:26,835
You know, in essence involved in it.
1182
00:59:28,255 --> 00:59:29,645
He was, he was racing.
1183
00:59:29,815 --> 00:59:30,445
He was racing.
1184
00:59:30,445 --> 00:59:31,005
He was racing.
1185
00:59:31,095 --> 00:59:31,275
Yeah.
1186
00:59:31,275 --> 00:59:34,215
That's his, but he left and came back.
1187
00:59:34,245 --> 00:59:34,395
Yeah.
1188
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:39,765
So there's that with the question, was
he scared and then thought about and
1189
00:59:39,770 --> 00:59:44,205
did the right thing or did he go have to
hide something and you know, like there's
1190
00:59:44,355 --> 00:59:46,035
there's a lot to think through there.
1191
00:59:46,395 --> 00:59:46,665
Yeah.
1192
00:59:46,665 --> 00:59:50,805
And it's his first, like
that's, I'm proud of him first.
1193
00:59:50,805 --> 00:59:51,855
Best mans a lot of him for that.
1194
00:59:51,860 --> 00:59:52,305
Yeah.
1195
00:59:52,310 --> 00:59:52,405
Yeah.
1196
00:59:52,410 --> 00:59:55,925
First, first record it he could.
1197
00:59:55,925 --> 00:59:57,725
Well, yeah, it's true too.
1198
00:59:57,885 --> 01:00:00,675
He could be just a good kid that was
in the wrong place at the wrong time.
1199
01:00:00,865 --> 01:00:01,485
You don't know.
1200
01:00:01,755 --> 01:00:02,505
You never know.
1201
01:00:02,505 --> 01:00:05,985
And, and that, that will
probably all come out in essence.
1202
01:00:06,465 --> 01:00:07,905
Was he actually driving though?
1203
01:00:08,205 --> 01:00:12,465
Yeah, he was driving, he was
driving one S u v Uhhuh and they
1204
01:00:12,465 --> 01:00:14,205
were in the other SUV V Okay.
1205
01:00:14,205 --> 01:00:15,675
They, it was two black SUVs.
1206
01:00:15,725 --> 01:00:16,045
Yeah.
1207
01:00:16,045 --> 01:00:16,046
Yeah.
1208
01:00:16,051 --> 01:00:18,375
And lemme tell you something,
did you see the footage?
1209
01:00:18,435 --> 01:00:20,445
Yeah, it was, uh, oh my God.
1210
01:00:20,445 --> 01:00:20,925
That's pretty crazy.
1211
01:00:20,925 --> 01:00:23,525
That thing, the what the
girl and the guy was in.
1212
01:00:24,285 --> 01:00:25,484
Wasn't nobody gonna survive that.
1213
01:00:25,484 --> 01:00:27,404
It was terrible curtains.
1214
01:00:27,404 --> 01:00:28,355
It was terrible.
1215
01:00:28,424 --> 01:00:32,025
So, you know, it's just, Hey, well guy.
1216
01:00:32,025 --> 01:00:33,795
Hey, that was, that
was a good, good topic.
1217
01:00:34,395 --> 01:00:36,165
Uh, well come back.
1218
01:00:36,165 --> 01:00:37,755

Don't just send them into the world with
a reliable ride, but unreliable insurance.

Sports Report, T-Bird, along with og.
1247
01:02:45,660 --> 01:02:46,980
Uh, og.
1248
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:55,395
You know, we got these new
rules in M L B and uh, And I'm
1249
01:02:55,395 --> 01:02:57,645
just, you know, I'm, I'm puzzle.
1250
01:02:57,855 --> 01:02:59,715
You know me, I'm the baseball tradition.
1251
01:02:59,775 --> 01:03:03,615
I like it the old way, but I
know we gotta do it a new way.
1252
01:03:03,620 --> 01:03:09,225
But, uh, for instance, I'm just gonna
give you this braze in the game the other
1253
01:03:09,225 --> 01:03:14,835
day is six to six, um, bases loaded.
1254
01:03:15,705 --> 01:03:19,665
Less than two outs in the ninth, I think.
1255
01:03:20,085 --> 01:03:26,985
Uh, uh, I think about around
the ninth and um, umpire.
1256
01:03:27,045 --> 01:03:28,634
We got two strikes on the guy.
1257
01:03:28,695 --> 01:03:30,134
It's full count, matter of fact.
1258
01:03:31,305 --> 01:03:32,835
Alright, everybody getting ready?
1259
01:03:33,075 --> 01:03:37,634
Umpire caused the batter out because he
didn't get in the battles box fast enough.
1260
01:03:37,995 --> 01:03:42,525
You got the base loaded,
less than two outs.
1261
01:03:42,555 --> 01:03:44,415
You got a chance to drive home runs.
1262
01:03:45,495 --> 01:03:46,425
And the umpire calls.
1263
01:03:46,425 --> 01:03:46,785
Yeah.
1264
01:03:47,015 --> 01:03:48,525
I I I don't know if I can get with that.
1265
01:03:48,795 --> 01:03:52,905
Yeah, I think, I think there's gotta
be a little situational awareness
1266
01:03:52,905 --> 01:03:56,955
here because we, we talk about it
in other sports where you can't let
1267
01:03:56,955 --> 01:04:01,305
the umpires, the referees, you know,
determine the outcome of the game.
1268
01:04:01,365 --> 01:04:01,635
Right?
1269
01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:01,745
Right.
1270
01:04:02,145 --> 01:04:03,765
And, and same thing happened.
1271
01:04:03,825 --> 01:04:06,135
Uh, there's a picture,
same kind of situation.
1272
01:04:06,135 --> 01:04:11,025
He, he, he didn't get on the, on the,
the pitch in time and it was a bulk and,
1273
01:04:11,025 --> 01:04:12,885
you know, runners and somebody scores.
1274
01:04:12,905 --> 01:04:13,105
Right.
1275
01:04:14,175 --> 01:04:19,125
I, I, I wish it didn't affect the outcomes
of the games or, you know, give the
1276
01:04:19,130 --> 01:04:21,345
guy a warning or, or some something.
1277
01:04:21,735 --> 01:04:23,085
Not just the instant out.
1278
01:04:23,085 --> 01:04:26,655
But again, there's gotta be a
balance there cuz we can't have,
1279
01:04:27,045 --> 01:04:30,555
you know, 30 seconds and then you
get up and then you back up and
1280
01:04:31,065 --> 01:04:32,445
we gotta have some balance there.
1281
01:04:32,445 --> 01:04:35,835
But I, it should not be determining games.
1282
01:04:35,925 --> 01:04:39,495
Think about when you get in the World
Series and you do that man that,
1283
01:04:39,500 --> 01:04:42,015
that them mo powers asking for it.
1284
01:04:42,015 --> 01:04:43,915
You can't do that in the World Series.
1285
01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:46,890
And I know we just starting out,
and this is spring training.
1286
01:04:46,890 --> 01:04:48,600
They gotta iron out all the kinks.
1287
01:04:49,049 --> 01:04:51,720
But you do that on a World
Series against my team.
1288
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:54,060
I'm coming after you, , I'm here.
1289
01:04:54,209 --> 01:04:58,259
And, and you know, certainly the, the
larger bases have, have, you know,
1290
01:04:58,350 --> 01:04:59,910
yeah, that's been a whole thing.
1291
01:04:59,910 --> 01:05:06,240
But it sounds like the commiss
can in fact, uh, make a, make
1292
01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:07,980
a change or tweak the rules.
1293
01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:11,790
It's just a matter of, I'm sure
that's a whole thing and a whole
1294
01:05:11,790 --> 01:05:18,000
process and, but it is, he can't
technically, um, make a change or,
1295
01:05:18,089 --> 01:05:19,740
or an adjustment to those rules.
1296
01:05:20,009 --> 01:05:23,520
Well, I think they gonna be making
tweaks all through the season
1297
01:05:23,520 --> 01:05:25,709
because this is so brand new.
1298
01:05:26,370 --> 01:05:29,549
And guys, you gotta think
about, baseball is a routine.
1299
01:05:29,609 --> 01:05:32,490
You, you know, you do
your routine to get ready.
1300
01:05:32,819 --> 01:05:36,990
Pitchers got a routine, batters got a
routine, and sometimes it takes time.
1301
01:05:36,995 --> 01:05:39,120
So they all having to adjust to that.
1302
01:05:39,870 --> 01:05:42,780
The new routine that they
gotta do to get ready faster.
1303
01:05:43,290 --> 01:05:45,180
And it's gonna be hard for some guys.
1304
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:46,710
And think about it as a batter.
1305
01:05:46,710 --> 01:05:50,970
If you have to almost run up to
the batters spot, you can't get
1306
01:05:50,970 --> 01:05:54,720
situated and it's a wasted pitch
cuz you're not gonna be ready, nah.
1307
01:05:55,230 --> 01:05:55,530
Mm-hmm.
1308
01:05:55,770 --> 01:06:01,590
But, but the whole, the, all of this is to
speed up the game and, and in my opinion,
1309
01:06:02,370 --> 01:06:06,660
analytics are detrimental to baseball.
1310
01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:07,860
Yes, I agree.
1311
01:06:08,010 --> 01:06:10,140
Whereas other sports,
it, it's advantageous.
1312
01:06:10,140 --> 01:06:16,050
But in baseball, so teams all, it's all
about either strikeouts or home runs.
1313
01:06:16,500 --> 01:06:23,790
And I have a statistic here I took
just for you, . So since 1998, the
1314
01:06:23,790 --> 01:06:29,310
number of baseball teams, the team
average being below two 40, it
1315
01:06:29,310 --> 01:06:31,380
first year it was tracked was 1998.
1316
01:06:31,890 --> 01:06:34,320
So, 2010.
1317
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:40,110
So 12 years later was the first time
one team was hitting under two 40.
1318
01:06:40,140 --> 01:06:40,530
Okay.
1319
01:06:40,740 --> 01:06:43,740
And then the, you know, it slowly
creeped up, creeped up, creeped up,
1320
01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:52,020
and in 20, 22, 14, so almost half the
teams in baseball averaging under two 40
1321
01:06:52,020 --> 01:06:54,300
because it's all about hitting the home.
1322
01:06:54,300 --> 01:06:57,300
Run in the long ball, or you
strike, there's no small ball.
1323
01:06:57,360 --> 01:06:58,290
There's no small ball.
1324
01:06:58,350 --> 01:07:01,080
And I know that's, uh, you know,
near and dear to your heart,
1325
01:07:01,085 --> 01:07:02,940
that's, that's fundamental baseball.
1326
01:07:02,940 --> 01:07:04,080
It's small ball's baseball.
1327
01:07:04,650 --> 01:07:09,660
But, uh, I just, why can't I, I just,
I wish we could get back to small
1328
01:07:09,660 --> 01:07:12,750
ball, but instead we've gotta do all
these other tweaks and changes because
1329
01:07:12,750 --> 01:07:14,130
everybody's trying to hit the home run.
1330
01:07:14,130 --> 01:07:17,340
Everybody's trying to, all
the launch angle and all that.
1331
01:07:17,340 --> 01:07:20,640
Who cares about when you swing
in the back, you know, , right?
1332
01:07:20,660 --> 01:07:23,610
But, you know, uh, uh,
Dick, you coming in?
1333
01:07:24,300 --> 01:07:24,630
Yeah.
1334
01:07:24,634 --> 01:07:29,880
Um, one of our chatters, um, mentioned
that, um, you know, the, the rule about
1335
01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:31,530
the whole, it's actually 20 seconds.
1336
01:07:31,935 --> 01:07:35,505
Yeah, it's, yeah, with it being 20
seconds, I was thinking 20 seconds
1337
01:07:35,505 --> 01:07:38,925
doesn't sound like very long, but then
when you're sitting there counting
1338
01:07:38,925 --> 01:07:43,095
it in your head one by one, that's
should be plenty enough time to get
1339
01:07:43,095 --> 01:07:46,875
in the box, get your head right, and
you know, play your game though, not
1340
01:07:46,875 --> 01:07:49,755
when you are used to stepping out.
1341
01:07:50,805 --> 01:07:53,595
You can only step out I
think twice now, right?
1342
01:07:53,955 --> 01:07:54,645
Something like that.
1343
01:07:55,125 --> 01:07:59,295
The pitcher can only only go
over to first base twice if you
1344
01:07:59,295 --> 01:08:01,005
can't throw up more than twice.
1345
01:08:01,455 --> 01:08:01,845
Okay.
1346
01:08:02,174 --> 01:08:05,475
So that therefore stolen
bases is gonna go up.
1347
01:08:05,475 --> 01:08:07,515
Cause he knows you done
threw over there twice.
1348
01:08:07,815 --> 01:08:10,935
So if you want to go on the third or
the fourth pitch, he can't throw over.
1349
01:08:10,935 --> 01:08:13,424
You can get off almost as far as you want.
1350
01:08:13,605 --> 01:08:14,995
He still can't throw over.
1351
01:08:15,105 --> 01:08:16,515
He got to go to the plate.
1352
01:08:16,604 --> 01:08:19,515
You can basically walk
over the second page.
1353
01:08:19,519 --> 01:08:20,325
Just, just about.
1354
01:08:20,385 --> 01:08:20,595
Yeah.
1355
01:08:20,625 --> 01:08:22,604
Just so you know.
1356
01:08:22,755 --> 01:08:27,314
But, but the, so I guess the account
argument to that is a left-handed
1357
01:08:27,404 --> 01:08:29,865
pitcher has a huge advantage Yes.
1358
01:08:30,104 --> 01:08:34,335
In that and some of those guys, man, you
could look like you're winding up and just
1359
01:08:34,335 --> 01:08:36,225
make a pitch to first instead of homeboy.
1360
01:08:37,500 --> 01:08:38,100
So what?
1361
01:08:38,220 --> 01:08:39,360
Tough, you know, tough.
1362
01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:45,660
I, I just, I think that is a mistake
that I think will, I hope gets
1363
01:08:45,660 --> 01:08:49,680
changed because you should be able
to throw over as much as you want.
1364
01:08:49,890 --> 01:08:51,000
No, yeah.
1365
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:55,410
Anyway, you know, but I, I will tell
you this and I will give analytics this.
1366
01:08:55,415 --> 01:08:56,820
They did get this accomplished.
1367
01:08:57,300 --> 01:09:00,840
The game is on average are
two hours and 33 minutes.
1368
01:09:01,140 --> 01:09:03,480
So you got what you want.
1369
01:09:03,485 --> 01:09:07,170
All the games that's been going on in
minor leagues, I mean in, uh, spring
1370
01:09:07,170 --> 01:09:11,910
training they've been averaging two
30, I think the longest game has
1371
01:09:11,915 --> 01:09:13,650
been three hours in five minutes.
1372
01:09:14,070 --> 01:09:16,800
And that was the average last year
before these rules started, right.
1373
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:17,430
Was 3 0 5.
1374
01:09:17,460 --> 01:09:19,560
But the rest of 'em have been in the twos.
1375
01:09:19,740 --> 01:09:21,540
So they're getting what they want there.
1376
01:09:21,660 --> 01:09:23,820
Cause the game is moving almost.
1377
01:09:24,390 --> 01:09:30,779
Yeah, almost a, again, I'm going
to spend $150 at a baseball
1378
01:09:30,785 --> 01:09:32,880
game and I'm there two hours.
1379
01:09:33,150 --> 01:09:35,040
I'm at the movies longer than that.
1380
01:09:35,490 --> 01:09:38,189
Think about the beer that's
sacrificed in that time.
1381
01:09:38,189 --> 01:09:38,700
That, that's true.
1382
01:09:38,700 --> 01:09:41,580
We're not, I gotta go
back to my car sober.
1383
01:09:41,580 --> 01:09:41,969
Like what?
1384
01:09:41,969 --> 01:09:43,439
That's who came up with this.
1385
01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:44,149
That's true.
1386
01:09:44,154 --> 01:09:47,040
The seventh inning stretch is, you
know, an hour and 45 minutes in.
1387
01:09:47,044 --> 01:09:47,669
That's it.
1388
01:09:47,910 --> 01:09:52,620
And, and, and you know, for me,
being a baseball traditionalist, I'm,
1389
01:09:52,620 --> 01:09:54,179
I'm not getting my money's worth.
1390
01:09:54,719 --> 01:09:56,730
You know, I'm, I'm, I gotta get there.
1391
01:09:57,419 --> 01:09:58,440
I gotta get there.
1392
01:09:58,500 --> 01:10:01,919
If the game's at seven 30, I
gotta get there at four o'clock.
1393
01:10:02,099 --> 01:10:02,160
Yeah.
1394
01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:04,790
To get all I want foot long hotdog.
1395
01:10:04,830 --> 01:10:05,040
Yeah.
1396
01:10:05,190 --> 01:10:07,559
Um, you know, and the, and the soak in.
1397
01:10:08,910 --> 01:10:09,210
Yeah.
1398
01:10:09,210 --> 01:10:10,440
You know, gotta get the crack.
1399
01:10:10,469 --> 01:10:13,259
Hell, you spent a hour in line
trying to get some crack jack.
1400
01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,990
I was gonna say you spent 30 minutes
in line trying to get to the bathroom.
1401
01:10:15,995 --> 01:10:21,464
But, you know, I mean, so again,
for me, It's not good for me because
1402
01:10:21,735 --> 01:10:25,514
I don't think that my dollar is
being spent that well when I'm at a
1403
01:10:25,514 --> 01:10:27,075
game for two hours and 30 minutes.
1404
01:10:27,525 --> 01:10:31,575
Og We'll see, I I time will tell
if the, the average fan, you
1405
01:10:31,575 --> 01:10:36,405
know, J Joe random fan likes the
new format in the faster pace.
1406
01:10:36,410 --> 01:10:40,335
Cuz that was the big complaint and that's
why all these changes, there wasn't enough
1407
01:10:40,605 --> 01:10:45,884
traditionalists like yourself, uh, to,
to continue to support it the way it was.
1408
01:10:45,884 --> 01:10:46,485
All right.
1409
01:10:46,634 --> 01:10:48,014
Say lave man.
1410
01:10:48,014 --> 01:10:48,844
Say Lavie.
1411
01:10:48,884 --> 01:10:49,275
All right.
1412
01:10:49,335 --> 01:10:54,195
Uh, but you know, before we, before
we get outta here guys, OG let's move
1413
01:10:54,195 --> 01:10:59,985
over to Quinn Snyder and the Hawks
and, you know, they, they, they went
1414
01:10:59,985 --> 01:11:04,184
and got Quinn right after the Allstar
break, which we all figured Nate was
1415
01:11:04,184 --> 01:11:05,955
gonna be gone at the Allstar break.
1416
01:11:05,955 --> 01:11:06,974
And we was all right.
1417
01:11:08,025 --> 01:11:11,144
And we, we get Quinn Sny well
respected around the league.
1418
01:11:11,144 --> 01:11:14,304
Everybody think that was a
big get for the hawks and.
1419
01:11:15,990 --> 01:11:20,309
You know, his first game, uh, we
lose his first game he coached, but
1420
01:11:20,309 --> 01:11:23,250
Joe Purdy, he won both of his games.
1421
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:25,320
Uh, what, what, what are you thinking?
1422
01:11:25,380 --> 01:11:26,460
Why is that gonna take us?
1423
01:11:26,620 --> 01:11:26,969
Og?
1424
01:11:27,210 --> 01:11:29,250
I like Quinn Snyder.
1425
01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:33,360
He's, he's known to have a good,
strong kind of locker room and,
1426
01:11:33,389 --> 01:11:37,980
and, and he's got a lot of decision
what kind of player decision making.
1427
01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:38,250
Mm-hmm.
1428
01:11:38,790 --> 01:11:43,799
. And so I think this, the, the second
half of this season will really tell
1429
01:11:43,799 --> 01:11:48,900
if there's any potential trades coming
up or I, I just, if we buy into his
1430
01:11:48,900 --> 01:11:53,040
system and his format all will be
well, but he's got enough power over
1431
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:58,290
kind of player, you know, who, which
players we get and who we go after that.
1432
01:11:58,469 --> 01:12:01,769
I think it's a good thing because he's
a big enough personality and a big
1433
01:12:01,769 --> 01:12:05,759
enough kind of person to get in your
face that he's not gonna take that crap
1434
01:12:05,759 --> 01:12:07,349
from, you know, all, any of that drama.
1435
01:12:07,679 --> 01:12:11,429
Well he's, he's, his job
definitely is to get Trey Young
1436
01:12:12,210 --> 01:12:13,980
on the, in, on the same page.
1437
01:12:14,775 --> 01:12:15,855
With the organization.
1438
01:12:16,335 --> 01:12:19,635
You know, Trey being a little bit
of a problem child here lately.
1439
01:12:20,145 --> 01:12:23,025
And, uh, so we, we, he's our star.
1440
01:12:23,030 --> 01:12:24,225
He's making 250 million.
1441
01:12:25,155 --> 01:12:27,465
It's time for Trey to lead
and do all the right thing.
1442
01:12:27,675 --> 01:12:32,685
Why not be the guy that
brings us to prominence?
1443
01:12:32,865 --> 01:12:37,725
Don't be the guy I wanna be in Atlanta,
make my millions, and then go to LA
1444
01:12:37,785 --> 01:12:39,465
and make them another champion again.
1445
01:12:39,470 --> 01:12:40,875
Or go to the clippers.
1446
01:12:41,835 --> 01:12:42,735
Why not us?
1447
01:12:42,915 --> 01:12:43,635
It's our time.
1448
01:12:43,755 --> 01:12:45,285
That's why we drafted you.
1449
01:12:45,645 --> 01:12:49,365
So go in there and be the leader
that you need to be for our team.
1450
01:12:49,605 --> 01:12:54,735
Bring us the prominence, you know, make
other stars want to come to Atlanta
1451
01:12:54,945 --> 01:12:59,625
because they like playing for the Atlanta
Hawks and playing with Trey Young and stop
1452
01:12:59,625 --> 01:13:02,655
all that bull crap that we hearing every.
1453
01:13:03,780 --> 01:13:06,390
We, we not lost too many
games to be dealing with that.
1454
01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:08,910
You know, we're, we're,
we're, we're subpar.
1455
01:13:08,910 --> 01:13:10,410
We're 31 and 31.
1456
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:15,120
We ought to be in, in the fifth or
the sixth spot legitimately with
1457
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:16,860
the talent we got on this team.
1458
01:13:17,070 --> 01:13:18,390
And we are not.
1459
01:13:18,810 --> 01:13:20,430
And, and I'm sick of it.
1460
01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:24,570
Stop telling John, uh, college
you going to trade him every year.
1461
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:26,820
He don't know whether he going to common.
1462
01:13:27,330 --> 01:13:27,810
You can't.
1463
01:13:27,960 --> 01:13:31,470
The guy has been a good
player, but he confused.
1464
01:13:31,530 --> 01:13:33,600
He don't know if you want him or not.
1465
01:13:33,750 --> 01:13:33,900
Yes.
1466
01:13:33,900 --> 01:13:34,650
You understand?
1467
01:13:34,820 --> 01:13:35,750
He's a player.
1468
01:13:35,900 --> 01:13:36,550
Come on.
1469
01:13:36,550 --> 01:13:37,310
He's a good player.
1470
01:13:37,310 --> 01:13:38,230
He's a good player.
1471
01:13:38,230 --> 01:13:43,320
He a good, but he don't know whether you,
the, the organization wants him or not.
1472
01:13:43,590 --> 01:13:46,800
I see John Collins every night
cheering on his players, dapping,
1473
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:50,640
everybody up, trying to keep a
positive attitude and you telling
1474
01:13:50,645 --> 01:13:52,170
him, we thinking about trading you.
1475
01:13:52,440 --> 01:13:53,130
Come on man.
1476
01:13:53,130 --> 01:13:54,300
Get, get with the program.
1477
01:13:54,305 --> 01:13:54,660
Trey.
1478
01:13:54,660 --> 01:13:55,590
Be that leader.
1479
01:13:56,085 --> 01:13:58,335
And, and, and lead us
to the Promised Land.
1480
01:13:58,425 --> 01:13:59,925
We pay you two 50 million.
1481
01:14:01,305 --> 01:14:04,555
Help me, somebody . No, I, I'm with you.
1482
01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:09,825
I mean, I thinks, I think Quinn's is the
right guy to hey with the organization
1483
01:14:09,825 --> 01:14:12,855
and just quit playing games with the,
with somebody like John Collins suit.
1484
01:14:12,855 --> 01:14:13,785
It's like, Hey, do you love me?
1485
01:14:13,790 --> 01:14:14,355
Or d and I?
1486
01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:14,635
Yes.
1487
01:14:15,045 --> 01:14:17,775
But I think, I think
you're absolutely right.
1488
01:14:17,835 --> 01:14:20,985
With the talent we have, we should
at least be a strong five seed.
1489
01:14:21,585 --> 01:14:26,685
And, and I think, I think Quinn is the
guy to get us there and just bring Trey,
1490
01:14:26,685 --> 01:14:28,515
like we did the first few games Yes.
1491
01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:31,605
With, with, um, with Trey
and, and, and the two guard,
1492
01:14:31,635 --> 01:14:34,395
um, uh, the shot Dante, mark.
1493
01:14:34,425 --> 01:14:34,545
Yes.
1494
01:14:34,575 --> 01:14:34,905
Murray.
1495
01:14:34,935 --> 01:14:35,265
Murray.
1496
01:14:35,625 --> 01:14:36,735
I think we can get there.
1497
01:14:36,735 --> 01:14:39,765
And, and Quinn Quinn's teams
have played a little defense.
1498
01:14:39,855 --> 01:14:39,945
Yes.
1499
01:14:39,945 --> 01:14:44,755
Which, which is we, this one
don't , but Nick, you got.
1500
01:14:45,315 --> 01:14:49,665
Yeah, and I was thinking about, um, you
know, again, decentralizing the attack.
1501
01:14:49,845 --> 01:14:53,415
You know, you can't put everything on
Trey, and at the same time he should
1502
01:14:53,415 --> 01:14:57,015
be, you know, with his level of talent,
he should be getting a lot more sis.
1503
01:14:57,705 --> 01:14:58,335
He really should.
1504
01:14:58,335 --> 01:15:02,025
Well, he's actually, he's getting
assist again, but, and that's
1505
01:15:02,025 --> 01:15:03,015
not bad for a score still.
1506
01:15:03,015 --> 01:15:03,575
I mean, yeah, yeah.
1507
01:15:03,580 --> 01:15:06,735
It's, it's great for a scorer,
but he, at the same time, he could
1508
01:15:06,885 --> 01:15:11,205
take a lot of load off of himself
and make the whole process easier.
1509
01:15:11,505 --> 01:15:14,355
If every time he go it looks like
he's about to go up, he passes
1510
01:15:14,355 --> 01:15:15,555
it to someone else that's open.
1511
01:15:15,735 --> 01:15:15,885
Yeah.
1512
01:15:15,885 --> 01:15:16,305
That's all I'm saying.
1513
01:15:16,305 --> 01:15:18,525
He's, he's a bull hog with
bad, with bad shooting.
1514
01:15:18,525 --> 01:15:24,405
Average . Well, lemme tell you this, the
guy we picked up, uh, what's his name?
1515
01:15:24,405 --> 01:15:26,265
Oh, G come on, come on now.
1516
01:15:26,325 --> 01:15:32,415
Uh, anyway, we picked him up
from Detroit and, oh, help me.
1517
01:15:32,775 --> 01:15:33,735
I'm sorry guys.
1518
01:15:33,740 --> 01:15:34,995
I, I had him on my mind.
1519
01:15:34,995 --> 01:15:39,555
But anyway, you know, y'all know that
I'm not a big fan of Deandre Hunter.
1520
01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:43,365
I've, I've lost all confidence in
Deandre and I think he's so inconsistent.
1521
01:15:44,475 --> 01:15:46,755
I'm he Deandre at the three.
1522
01:15:46,845 --> 01:15:51,075
I'm gonna move in, uh,
uh, what's his name?
1523
01:15:51,075 --> 01:15:51,195
Og.
1524
01:15:51,345 --> 01:15:51,975
Look him up.
1525
01:15:53,175 --> 01:15:53,625
. No.
1526
01:15:53,625 --> 01:15:54,525
Nah, not him.
1527
01:15:54,525 --> 01:15:56,085
It is the one we got from Detroit.
1528
01:15:57,315 --> 01:15:57,915
Deandre.
1529
01:15:58,125 --> 01:15:58,965
Not Deandre honey.
1530
01:15:59,205 --> 01:16:00,045
Jaylen Johnson.
1531
01:16:00,225 --> 01:16:01,365
No, we didn't.
1532
01:16:01,395 --> 01:16:02,625
Uh, sad Bay.
1533
01:16:02,715 --> 01:16:03,585
Sadiq Bay.
1534
01:16:03,590 --> 01:16:05,705
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
1535
01:16:05,925 --> 01:16:07,185
And I apologize guys.
1536
01:16:07,185 --> 01:16:12,045
He, I, he, I've been saying it all
day and I forgot Sadiq Bay Automatic
1537
01:16:12,045 --> 01:16:13,875
money when he come in off bench.
1538
01:16:14,445 --> 01:16:16,635
He some threes the other
night just automatic.
1539
01:16:17,445 --> 01:16:23,895
He is a guy that you can put in late in
the game and have a great chance at hit
1540
01:16:24,555 --> 01:16:26,745
three or just doing some good things.
1541
01:16:26,745 --> 01:16:27,975
He plays good defense.
1542
01:16:28,695 --> 01:16:34,905
If, if I'm me, I'm trading Deandre Hunter,
moving Sad Bay in my, uh, starting lineup
1543
01:16:35,505 --> 01:16:40,725
and, and moving on from there because
Deandre Hunter, he's injury prone.
1544
01:16:41,790 --> 01:16:43,530
He's very inconsistent.
1545
01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:45,059
You don't know what you're gonna give.
1546
01:16:45,059 --> 01:16:47,130
His three shot is horrendous.
1547
01:16:47,610 --> 01:16:50,130
And, and I'm just not
a Deandre Hunter fan.
1548
01:16:50,130 --> 01:16:52,620
I, I, I'm, I'm, I've lost
all confidence in him.
1549
01:16:52,620 --> 01:16:55,260
So, Sadiq Bay, I'm in your corner.
1550
01:16:55,350 --> 01:16:58,890
I want you in Atlanta for a number
of years to help us win a title.
1551
01:16:59,280 --> 01:16:59,910
Hey, there.
1552
01:16:59,910 --> 01:17:00,501
You got it.
1553
01:17:01,590 --> 01:17:02,070
Mike drop.
1554
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:03,960
He said, Mike drop.
1555
01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:08,490
