Some guy sent a tweet in that he's trying to
get his parrot to sing the song he's got, like so,
I think an African gray and he thinks he's convinced

(02:41):
that he's going to be able to get the parrot
to sing the jingle.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
That would be awesome. Send it in if you get
them to sing it, send it in.

Speaker 6 (02:48):
Damn it.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Jonas from parrots over to wolves. Yeah, how about the baby?
Hell yeah about it?

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Put that beating on Denver last night. We're gonna get
a game seven coming up this weekend.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Thought it was over? Yeah, but you thought it was
over twice.

Speaker 6 (03:03):
You've called it twice though I thought it was over
so way, So what's gonna happen now it's going to
game seven?

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Well, here's the thing, right, the the Denver Nuggets decided
to come out and not bring their hearts and their
blood with them onto to the court last night, Like
there was no intensity. There was no sense of urgency.

Speaker 6 (03:27):
It was not.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
It was not the feeling that it was a close
out game for the Denver Nuggets. I don't know why
they were so flat. I don't know why it came
across as just a nonchalant approach to what was a
close out game. But they they did not come out
prepared to close out the series, and Minnesota had an

(03:51):
energy that they, you know, Denver did not match. That's
really what it came down to. Like, in my mind,
I'm like, all right, they got Mike Conley back, he's
out there, Like does that make a difference. It's like, no,
it didn't really make a tremendous difference seeing what he did.
Maybe there was the presence on the court that that
maybe balanced it out a little bit more, But I

(04:11):
didn't see them. Really do the Timberwolves do too much
differently from what they did in the last game. I
thought this was more so about the Denver Nuggets and
them not matching the intensity they're there shooting was off.
You know, they're they're it just it just was not
It was not a team that looked like they were

(04:32):
the former champs and looked like they were ready to
close out the series and go to the next round.
I mean, that was my takeaway from it. It was
kind of disheartening really because it's like you're looking at
them and it's like, why are y'all so like laid
back in the way that And it just didn't seem
like it mattered that that the Timberwolves were were doing

(04:53):
what they were doing within the game, So you know,
maybe they can they came out, don't I still don't
think they can beat them two games in a row.

Speaker 6 (05:02):
Does does this lead you to a conspiracy theory that
maybe like they're just like, hey, take just thing the
game seven, Okay, then you guys can close out going
to the Western Conference Finals.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Oh, they've the NBA has already set the table for
two game sevens on Sunday.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
They've already set the table.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
Indiana's gonna win game six and we're gonna get two
game sevens on Sunday.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
I just was so underwhelmed by the way the Denver
Nuggets approached the game. It just it just didn't make sense.
Like if they would have gave more effort than what
they did, they probably win that game. But they just
didn't give the effort and it was apparent I mean
there were open shots, which, by the way, I mean,

(05:45):
if you're shooting as much as these guys shoot, they
they miss a ton, like these three pointers. That's all
they do is just shoot. Like I don't know you.
I saw Jamal Murray. Jamal Murray slashes to the rim.
Like again, you always got to have one or two

(06:06):
guys that can get to the rim that gives you
the space on the outside to be able to shoot.
Jamal Murray was trying to do so they just weren't.
They weren't making the shots he was. He was doing
what he needed to do. But it almost seemed like
Anthony Edwards kind of punkting in this game, like almost
like man took his heart. He doesn't seem like he

(06:29):
wants that smoke with him. He took him man to
man head up, threw that off a little bit. They
were doubling up and really really collapsing in on Joka
to try to, you know, disrupt him. They did disrupt him,
but I thought this was more so about Denver than
it was about the Wolves.

Speaker 6 (06:49):
I wonder how Yogic's horse is doing. Maybe there's like
a sick horse or something going on.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Back point.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, and the precenuess is this weekend, so maybe he's
got you know, his sights on other things.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
You know, it's possible, yeah, you know, I.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Mean that's I mean, it makes more sense than than
you know, them coming out in game six or the
chance to close it out and getting annihilated by close
to fifty. But ant Man Anthony Edwards, he did talk
post game, and he talked about again his advice and
recommendation on how to be successful for Karl Anthony Towns

(07:21):
and also a nice little exchange because apparently he told
everybody this is how this was going to go.

Speaker 7 (07:26):
Every time we come out. Cat is on yo kick,
So it wasn't new today. I think the main thing
today was his ad state out of foul Troup. But
like I told him in the Phoenix series, that was
all that was. Yeah, I mean I cussed him out.
I cussed him out every chance I get bro stopped
and filling. Like I think you guys see it, like

(07:46):
if Kat don't filed, we pretty much can win the
game every time. And tonight, I mean he had three fouls,
but he did he only had three, he didn't have five.
So I told him today, like if you if we
thankful that you didn't file, because if you don't, if
you find we lose.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Did you really tell the locker room staffer in Denver
you were gonna be bad? Oh? Yeah, they knowed I
was in there.

Speaker 6 (08:09):
Yeah, I told him.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
I said I'll see him for Game seven. He's the best.
He's years old and literally says and does what he
pleases the league.

Speaker 6 (08:20):
Oh man, I'm telling you the personalities right now in
the NBA that there's one thing that I think you
know with no Steph Curry, no Lebron, no you know,
Kevin Durant at this point in time, you've gotten such
a better I guess, array of younger talent personalities, guys
who I think are gonna really carry the flag for
the NBA moving forward. And I feel good about that,

(08:43):
Like I felt, I feel great about where the game
of basketball's aschematically with the way you LeVar is just
kind of talking about how they have to play. But
I do feel good about the personalities the players. The
skill it is as good as it's ever been in
that regard.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
God God, well, I just at twenty two years old
and he's taken over the role of Lee. Like there's
veterans players that have been in that league for a
long time, that are on that team, and he's the
guy like he's the alpha, sort of telling everybody like
you watch him on the sideline like he's instructing them,
he's coaching guys up on the bench like I just

(09:19):
I don't know how you get to that point or
when he when it clicks for him, when he got
to the NBA and just realized, no, no, no, no,
no no, this is my team, this is my franchise.
I'm not letting anybody steer us. I got the wheel.
Everybody follow along and let's get to this point, like,
let's take this franchise places it hasn't gone before, and
take the league places. He's got to be one of

(09:39):
the most entertaining fun players to watch and does it
completely different than most players in the NBA do it,
calls it like it is without a care in the world.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
That's a guy we got to hear more from. He's
a guy I'll tell you that he handles the media well.
He's genuine, he's sincere, and the way he plays the
game match is his personality. I mean, he's he's just
got he's got a boyish look to him boyish face.
But but he his game is is all killer, all
dogba got a baby face with a full grown ass

(10:13):
man game. And yeah, and he handles himself in a
way where he disarms you. You know, he doesn't come
across as an aggressive guy. He doesn't come across as
you know, kind of you know, I don't know, off balance.
He's just he's he's a star. He's a guy. Oh
so you know what, not a.

Speaker 6 (10:31):
Load management guy.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Not a load management guy.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Now he's missed three games each of the last two years.
Just not a load management guy going out there. I
think he made There was a quote that he had
earlier this year where they asked him, you know, about
load management and he's like, I'm twenty two. It's like
I want to play. What he means, like, I want
to I'm out here wanting to play. So it's fun
to watch, fun to see Ann Edwards and listen. I

(10:56):
think it's better for everybody here, Like you know, how
you know, growing up sometimes you know, if dad comes
home from work unhappy, you're like, oh, yeah, it's just
not this is not a good place to be. I
think it's it's better for everybody here at the network
that Minnesota performs well because we don't want to have
to deal with the wrath of Scott Shapiro. Have they

(11:18):
not performing well like that? That's a problem. Nobody at
this nobody wants that smoke.

Speaker 6 (11:24):
So what are you claiming that, like Scott's gonna punish
us just because the t Wolves aren't gonna able to
win Game sevens are you saying?

Speaker 2 (11:30):
I mean, I'm just saying, like, you know, like he
made like Scott might be like, all right, listen, Minnesota
came out laid enagan Game seven, our three fully dedicated
to Caitlyn Clark coverage, and it's like, okay, jeez, all right,
that's why we need to root for the Minnesota Timberwolves
to perform well at least respectable, so that we don't

(11:51):
have to feel the wrath when Dad comes home pissed off.
It's something that happened, takes it out on the rest
of the face.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Is this said that I feel like Caitlin Clark belongs
in the Iowa Hawk guye uniform. It like it's like
almost like I don't even like seeing her in a
pro uniform. It's like she's one of those ones that
just she belongs in being a Iowa Hawk guy.

Speaker 6 (12:18):
Like, it doesn't matter what uniform she has on, there's
a bulls eye on her back right now.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
True.

Speaker 6 (12:26):
I mean they made that. Liberty made a statement last night,
and Brianna Stewart, who's been one of the better players
that in the WNBA for a while, they just they
let it all hang out. They're just like, yep, come
get some of this. So it's look, all the girls
talked about her having a tough transition into the w NBA,

(12:46):
but I do feel like the jealousy that's involved too,
and then a little bit of like this like rookie year,
let's just go ahead and you know, make sure she
knows that, Like she's not going to have it as
easy as she did in college. It's very evident, you know,
seeing the way teams not only play her but even
just poured on her team. But also she's not an

(13:06):
awful team, Like there's not a lot of help around her,
at least when you you put into comparison to the
couple of teams they've played so far.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Listen, I hope it goes well for and uh, you guys,
let me know how it does go because I'll be
watching the NBA playoffs and focusing on some other things.

Speaker 6 (13:23):
You sent me a clip, so you were watching old
episodes of Baywatch.

Speaker 1 (13:26):

I did watch her? Yea, he showed me.

be rid. Who cares what the plot is here? I'm good?

Speaker 6 (13:47):

show or theme song? Yeah?

blood there.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
Right?

Speaker 1 (19:51):
Did you go yourself? Brady?

Speaker 6 (19:56):
I don't know what that was? What what's that?

want from me?

Speaker 2 (20:20):
Like?

Speaker 1 (20:20):
I mean like you sounded more.

Speaker 6 (20:21):
Like Roberto there than you did anything else.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
I mean, I'm not sure what to do. You know, Yeah,
it is what it is, Valhalla. I do believe Valhalla
is are you.

Speaker 6 (20:33):
Saying Valhalla vah Valhalla Valhalla?

Speaker 1 (20:36):
That's how you say it. It's it's the it's the
uh pagan. It's a pagan like it's like a pagan
heaven or something to that effect, like the holes like
like yay do I see my mother? Yay do I
see my brothers, my sisters and my father too. It's

(20:59):
something to that effect. I see my line back to
the beginning. They do call me, they bid me join
them in the halls of Valhalla, where the brave shall
live forever. Look at that, how about it? Yeah? That's impressed.
I don't f around about that. That type stuff right there.

(21:21):
That was like, that's that warrior type stuff right there.
That's like a warrior prayer. Then you go, that's that's
that thirteenth warrior dip. Yeah, when bullv you know, I
had I had a bulldog that I named Bullvaye after
bullv son of Bullvy. Where's he at? He's where the

(21:41):
boss hog is? The Yeah? Ain't he ain't around?

Speaker 6 (21:47):
Was he his biggest boss hog? Was he like one
of those three hundred and fifty masters.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
He was a bulldog. He was an American bulldog, but
he was not three hundred pounds. Just like I will
say this, though, sticks, mister Styx is getting ginormous, like
he's like he's gonna.

Speaker 6 (22:06):
Start looking at you like I could whoop your ass.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
He doesn't really look like he's from this planet. Do
you guys share Andro or do you give him his separately?
He gets his separately.

Speaker 6 (22:16):
Do people still take Andre? They should? I guess, right?

Speaker 1 (22:22):
And then Andro one ad stack with nineteen.

Speaker 6 (22:25):
Or I mean, I'll say this, LeVar. In that photo
you said, man, you're looking very like Mark McGuire Sammy
the day Esque, right, they were all shacked up on And.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
I haven't done anything. I haven't used anything.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
That's that's before Sammy did full body snow Angels on
a daily basis.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
I guess I'm hitting my plateau, though, so I might
I might need to, you know, figure out what I
need to use, you know, because I'm hitting that plateau
like it's like it's it's this is it? Well, if
you need a guy, I know one. Yeah you got one? Yeah,
all right, let's hit him on the break all right,
all right, thanks man, appreciate the plug. Let me give
you Brady's email, right all right, this number.

Speaker 6 (23:15):
Jonas Knox at gmail dot com.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
So the PGA Championship at Valhalla and the breakdown LeVar
just gave Xander Schoffley is the leader.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
He's three over. But we all know what this tournament
is about. Yeah, we do. It's the revenge of Rory. Okay,
we need this to happen.

Speaker 6 (23:36):
All right. This is going to add a new far
updated on the most recent news.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
I didn't know, no, I was, I'm not. What's the
most recent sing.

Speaker 6 (23:45):
Well, he won the tournament last week and immediately filed
for divorce. So there is a thought if you go
back through his track record, he was, I believe, dating
Caroline Wozniak, she was the professional tennis player, yes, and
he went on a wind streak after breaking up with her,
and it's it's now thought that he's going to make

(24:05):
a move and make a run here at Valhalla, given
that he's just decided to get divorced. So, by the way,
for those wondering, Michael Block, who is the PGA professional
who made the big story last year in the PGA Championship,
He's currently tied for like one hundred and fiftieth something.
He's probably not going to make the cut. So he

(24:27):
quadruple bogie a hole yesterday, which basically kept him at
plus five over. So that the Block Party, as they
keep saying, they keep trying to advertise this, like the
Block Party, it's it's not going to continue.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
Yeah, five over.

Speaker 6 (24:41):
Yeah, it seems like a nice guy, but he's uh,
he's yeah. I mean that whole storyline has been a
little bit overblown over the past year.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
He's off at nine forty. There's a lot of guys
that are tea and off next hour.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
It almost feels like it's like a live sporting about
that's happening while we're on the air. Makes you wonder, like,
you know, who else might have an interest in that,
You know, with a live sporting event happening while we're
on the air.

Speaker 6 (25:02):
It makes you wonder if that's a oh maybe what
do you think?

Speaker 1 (25:05):
I don't know. On how he's respected up until how
he's respected.

Speaker 6 (25:11):
I mean, LeVar, would you want to see live bet
Jesus on the show today?

Speaker 1 (25:15):
I mean, I'm here. Why not? We got a couple
more hours to go. You know who? You are going
to see a lot of the New York Jets. Oh
the fight New York Jets. Nice, Mike North. I watched Flash.
I didn't realize Flash Gordon was the quarterback for the
New York Jets. I knew he was a pro quarterback

(25:35):
in the movie. I just didn't know he was for
the Jets the NFL. Did you know that?

Speaker 6 (25:40):
No?

Speaker 1 (25:40):
You ever see the movie Flash Gordon? No? I like you.
I'm weird about I like watching good movies. I don't
know what it is. It's not a great movie, but
it's a it's a cult classic movie. You know Flash Gordon.
You know, come on, he's the quarterback. Though I didn't
know he was a quarterback for for the Jets. But
go ahead, well, I mean.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
The NFL's VP of Broadcast Planning, Mike Nor He basically said, no,
valid question.

Speaker 9 (26:06):
I could be a cousin, nephew, brother, stepdaddy, stepdaddy, your daddy,
baby daddy, your daddy he ain't it.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
He's also no relation to the broadcast legend Fox Sports
Radio Mike North. Yeah, but this Mike North said that basically,
you know, the Jets kind of otis one. So he
said it on a zoom call with reporters, talking about
how disappointed they were that, you know, they had all
this build up for Aaron Rodgers and the Jets and

(26:42):
it lasted four plays and they were gone. And he
talked about just you know, the number of games that
we're going to see of them in primetime that we
broke down in the first half.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Of the season.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
And I'll say this, I appreciate the honesty. You know,
at least they're they're they're pretty transparent when it comes
to that he's one of the all time great players.
This may be his final season or final you know,
one or two years in the NFL. Put them on
in primetime as many times as possible. If we're all
about generating eyeballs and interest in getting this product seen

(27:13):
by the most people, you'd say this about Aaron Rodgers,
great player, also a lightning rod and there's going to
be somebody who's either rooting for him or somebody who's
cheering against him, and so the fact that they just
came out and said, look, didn't get everything that we
asked for last year, so we're asking for more again
this year and hoping that he stay healthy and we're
going to get these matchups, no issue with it whatsoever, which.

Speaker 6 (27:34):
Is odd because when Zach Wilson got drafted there, they
were really bullish on trying to put this team in
primetime and then that kind of faded. So it's like, well,
maybe you owe us one two you know, as fans
for the crap you put us through some of those years,
I mean like.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
The last decade plus, you know, with no playoffs for
the New York Jets. So if you were sick of
seeing Aaron Rodgers tough ball, you're gonna see a lot
of them. And the NFL is okay with that. I
think that's how it should be. I mean, we should
see how that plays out. That's going to be one

(28:11):
of the more interesting storylines because it's going to be
story worthy regardless of how it turns out. If he
plays amazingly and the team has great success, it's a
great story to leverage if and run with. If you're
the National Football League and if you're the media if

(28:31):
if it face it's the same thing.

Speaker 6 (28:34):
You don't think it's gonna go that way though, No,
I don't.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
I don't.

Speaker 6 (28:38):
I think they're gonna be good though.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Man. See, But that's that's the reason why you want
to have these these games play out that way, because
we have both sides that are side yes yet yet see,
if it works out that way, it's a it's a
hell of a story. If it doesn't work out that way,
it's a hell of a story because I don't see it.
I don't. I don't see that. I feel like, you know,

(29:01):
the Fireman he retired from saying jets for a reason.
That's that reason is not going to be undone this year,
wasn't it because Rex Ryan was trying to smell his
feet all the time. Maybe that's okay.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
I'm just reading, you know, regurgitating reports that I saw
from you know, the New York Times and things like that, potentially, so,
I don't know. I mean, the fact that Fireman D
is no longer there is a disgrace. But the fact
that Aaron Rodgers is going to be.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
Him away, you know, well, how bad they play, they
might not they might not bring him back. This year.
That's all I'm gonna say. What was the reasoning behind
him leaving?

Speaker 2 (29:39):
I think he got tired of chair for he did
come back. I think he did come back if you
look that up. Why why did Fireman ed actually leave?
I don't believe it was because Rex Ryan was smelling
his feet. But if we could find out why exactly
that was, I think it really we'd benefit all from that,
all benefit.

Speaker 6 (29:58):
I think it was a Thanksgiving night I lost the Patriots.
He left the game at halftime, deleted his Twitter account,
and he retired.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
And that was during the butt fumble game too. I
told you he was upset.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Oh wait, but like all the bad football he's seen,
the butt fundle butt fumble was the one that did
him in.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Could not handle that. That was the one he couldn't handle.

Speaker 6 (30:18):
He returned at the beginning of twenty fifteen.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
So oh that was a long time ago. Yeah, hey,
I didn't realize it was that long ago.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
And by the way, Sanchez was the one who had
the butt fumble, and he was the last guy who
took him to a couple of AFC title games. You
think there'd be a little bit more grace for a
mistake like that the fact that he was the quarterback
of those two AFC title game appearances, but he butt
fumbled and the guy bailed on the team.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
I don't know. If I were them, I wouldn't allow
him back. We need support.

Speaker 10 (30:48):
He said in an interview that it was because he
was getting increasingly harassed at the stadium.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
At at Life Stadium. I wonder why.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
He's seventy five years old standing on somebody shoulders and
he's getting the entire crowd to cheer.

Speaker 6 (31:03):
And if you get fact check, he's sixty four years old,
not standing on anyone's shoulders.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Okay, and uh yeah, all right, well listen, we round
up on this show. But the point is, if you
do that and you're a bad football team and there's
some drunks from Fox propaganda exactly what happened, and you
get some drunks from Foxborough who are just putting it
on you because you haven't beaten them in like two decades, Yeah,
you're gonna get arrest. That's the way it goes. Brady

(31:31):
always told me, if you can't take the heat, get
out of the stall.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
Said, okay, you're a hot stall. Yeah, where's that heat
coming from?

Speaker 6 (31:39):
Hell? Are you talking about I don't know, all right,
so you're you're someone who told me that, like your
your favorite move is to ask for toilet paper from
the stall next to you.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
Right. In order to do that, I tapped my foot underneath.

Speaker 6 (31:52):
Show an open hand to the guy.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
Right here, please back to the Jets, by the way,
toilet paper here?

Speaker 6 (32:02):
Do you do you feel like other teams look at
the Jets opportunity with as many like standalone games, primetime games,
and they look at it and say to themselves like, oh,
you know, that's uh a little unfair. You know, it
could have tossed one our way. You know, it could
have could have maybe done one for us.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
You think like Carolina is like, hey, what about us?
And then they realize, never mind, oh never one. We'll
probably lose that one. Wait wait, not probably lose that
one too.

Speaker 6 (32:28):
I think the thing that bothers me the most, by
the way, about the NFL scheduling. And I don't know
if I don't it doesn't look like we're gonna try
to like talk about the subject again. But the fact
that they took into account the Taylor Swift tour when scheduling,
like they admitted that if you're a player, and even
for the Jets, and I know the Baltimore Ravens are
obviously upset about you know, their schedule as well. I

(32:49):
have to play on Christmas again, They've got a short window.
They've got to play three games in ten days. The
Jets have to play three games in ten days early
and then three games in eleven days twice before Week eleven. Well,
so what bothers me about it is they are factoring
in Taylor Swift's tour as opposed to player safety when

(33:13):
thinking about you know where they want to put the
Kansas City Chiefs in these different primetime events, et cetera. Yeah,
that's a problem for me. Like, if I'm the NFLPA
and that's say they have a new PA president, I
would be like completely outspoken about the lack of care
or concern about player We heard alber Berers say yesterday

(33:35):
like they just don't care about player safety anymore, they
don't care about players recovering anymore. And if they won
an eighteenth game, the NFLPA should go hard at trying
to figure out a way of expanding roster sizes. So guys,
and I hate saying this, but they're not gonna be
able to play all eighteen games. There's gonna be weeks
where they our short week, They're just gonna have to

(33:55):
take the day out. It's gonna be like load management.
That's essentially what it's gonna be. Because the NFL does
not care enough about the players, which they're you know,
their employees, however you want to look at them. They
don't care enough about their well being and safety to
build in buys, to build in enough rest for them
throughout the course of a season.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Now, are you confident the NFLPA is actually going to
do that?

Speaker 6 (34:16):
No, because, like again, the last time was like, hey,
let's just get like, you know, a lesser punishment for marijuana.
You know, that was like one of their big takeaways.
It's like, okay, great, we got to check that off
the box. But no, it's never prioritized like a lot
of people think like, oh, we should prioritize guaranteed contracts.
Guaranteed contracts weren't prioritized in other professional sports. That's what

(34:37):
people don't understand is it wasn't like the unions for
those sports, like hey, we need to make sure these
things are guaranteed. It's like now they have longer careers
in them. So for a lot of those sports, you know,
they have the opportunity to sign a fully guaranteed deal
because of the fact that they're gonna be playing for
much longer. There's less chance of injury as compared to
what you're seeing in football. So there's other things you

(34:58):
can shoot for which would help you. Lifetime healthcare for players.
How about that? You know, why not shoot if you
want to shoot for one big thing and you want
to talk about like player safety well being, all right, Well,
if they don't care about scheduling, at least give them
lifetime healthcare once they're done, if they're a vested veteran,
that would make a lot of sense. What or not?

Speaker 2 (35:16):
Yeah, well, there's a lot of it that makes a
lot of sense. Unfortunately, nobody seems to factor any of
that stuff in. And away we go with the potential
of eighteen games coming right around the bend. It is
two pros and a cup of Joe here on Fox
Sports Radio. Coming up next here one player in the
NFL already unhappy with where he currently is at in

Chiefs first round wide receiver Hey Brady Xavier Worthy had
his car stolen from a residential parking structure earlier this
week in Kansas City. Fox Foard Kansas City quoted authorities
as saying they believe a group of professional criminals committed
the crime.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
I don't worry about it. That happens everywhere. Oh yeah, yeah,
they took my seven sixty when I went to the Giants. No,
it happens. Welcome to the league, Yeah, welcome to the league.
Rook You know, hey, rookie, Hey, rookie, how come nobody
wants my car?

Speaker 6 (37:24):
Man, there's uh. You become a target, you know, when
you drafted to a team, especially as a first round pick,
that equates to money. You become a target.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
They know a team hotel, So that's just that's normal.
They know the first and and the new signees hotel.
Every team has one.

Speaker 6 (37:44):
It's not, I don't want to say normal, but it's
normal to what Leavar is saying, Like people know, you
become a target. There's a it's a bulls on your
back as far as somebody's got money and assets things
that other people value to.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
So my whole thing was you could have the car.
That's cool, man, But like, if you're out there listening,
I wish I could kick your ass for taking my
bowling balls. I had my two bags of bowling balls
in the back of.

Speaker 6 (38:13):
My truck car.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
You could like storms, the storms, yeh yeah, yeah, listen,
you could have put my bags on the sidewalk and
took my car and I you know, you know, God
god speed.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
I think with Young Wayku, the kicker for the Falcons,
somebody stole his jeep and I think he sent a
tweet out that said, hey, man, I don't I don't
mind you taking the car, but can I at least
have my kicking shoes and my balls that.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
Were in there? I want to go so fricking inconsiderate man,
Like you saw my bowling balls in the back of
that that car, Like, take my bowling balls out. They
took your balls from me. Come on, man, I can't
take a man's balls uff. I mean they did. They
took him all of them.
