the one and only Pete Prisco, senior NFL columnist for
CBS Sports, CBS Sports HQ analyst. And if you want
some of that smoke on social media, you can get
it at Prisco CBS on X Pete, Good morning, what's up, guys?

Speaker 3 (01:41):
How are you hi? P Hey p.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
You survived the combine?

Speaker 5 (01:44):
Man, I made it. I made it, you know, not
without a few you know, arguments football.

Speaker 4 (01:53):
What happened?

Speaker 6 (01:54):
We heard Ben Johnson give you a shout out. Apparently
you're eckoing him about not kicking more field goals.

Speaker 5 (01:59):
Oh yeah, yeah, I mean I tell them all kick
the field goals you win games. And he's in that interview,
and then I talked to him afterwards. But in the
interview he said, well, we'll make more of them and
we'll convert you. And I said, You're never converting me. Ever,
I don't because I don't believe in it. I think
you get there's there's certain situations, you could go for it,
but you don't need to go for it all the time.

(02:20):
And so you know, they always try and explain why
they do it after the fact. And look, I listened
to him, and I just don't agree with them. I
think there's if he had kicked field goals in the playoffs,
probably would have won. If Liam Cone had kicked his
field goals up ten nothing, probably would have won. If
Sean McVay had kicked the field goal to cut it
to one with instead of going for it and fourth
down late the game, probably would have won. And and

(02:43):
then there was one other one. I forget who the
other one was, but Denver, if Sean Sean Payton kicks
his field goal, he wins. So basically, four teams eliminated
the playff because the didn't kick field goals.

Speaker 7 (02:54):
Wow, let me let me ask you about the trade
with moneygommery.

Speaker 8 (03:00):
Did you do you like it? How do you feel
about it?

Speaker 5 (03:04):
Yeah? Let me let me trade two draft picks for
a running back entering his eighth year. That makes a
lot of sense. I mean, no, come on, okay, it
makes no sense to me. I mean, you can find
running backs in the fourth and fifth and sixth round.
And so why would you go trade picks for a
running back who's entering his eighth year in the league.

(03:24):
It doesn't, you know, And a granted I get he
doesn't have a lot of tons of carries on his body,
but it's still you're you're going to be twenty nine,
you know, you get into the witching hour of a
running back career, and I wouldn't trade draft picks for
any running back. So no, to answer your question.

Speaker 7 (03:38):
I know we were made aware that you would pooh
pooh it because you think that running backs are come
a dime a dozen.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
Well they're not a dime a dozen. Some are better
than others, there's no question about that. But by drafting one,
when you draft them, LeVar, you're already okay, you're already
you're already on the block for life. Expectancy of that
back in your in your in your program. Whereas most
of the time, if you draft a guy in a

(04:07):
different position, you're going to have him at least you're
going to try to keep him for most of his career.
Look at look at the running backs that have changed teams.
I mean, they all change teams. And I think when
you look at it. From that standpoint, I just don't
think you get banged for your buck with the running
back position. So that's why I wouldn't. Look there are
certain cases where I would draft the running back in
the first round. If you're you know, if you're sitting

(04:29):
there and there's not somebody that in another position of
your need that you need to get that, I can
understand that. I just don't think in the end. And
and look, I had a conversation with the Raiders and
you know, spy Tech. I said, look, I get it,
you drafted. You drafted gent D. I think he's a
good player, but gets the value of that position. I
wouldn't do it. And so there's always going to be

(04:51):
to push back on that. And I always, you know,
reach back onto the shelf and pull one off. That's
what I do. And all the guys, the running backs
I work for, they get mad, they work with, they
get mad at me. I go, there's one right there,
pull them off the shelf, put him in there. You go, okay,
you're in. Go run for one hundred and twenty. Because
that's that's basically.

Speaker 8 (05:05):
What it is.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Pete Prisco joining us here on Fox Sports Radio Senior
NFL columnists for CBS Sports, CBS Sports HQ analysts. You
can get them on ex at Prisco CBS Pete, what
was the wildest rumor that you heard about a potential
move while at the Combine in Indie, whether it be
a draft, a signing, a trade, et cetera.

Speaker 5 (05:27):
Well, I don't know if they're rumors. I think some
of the wildest things are facts, like Malik Willis is
going to get over thirty five thirty to thirty five
million dollars a year in a contract, which I think
probably could happen.

Speaker 8 (05:38):
Who's going to dayn that?

Speaker 5 (05:40):
That's what I'm trying to figure out. I mean, is
it going to be Arizona? I mean, is Arizona going
to allow Kyler Murray, who they don't want out the door,
to go pay Malik Willis? And I mean that that
to me is is Malik Willis better better than Kyler Murray?

Speaker 8 (05:57):
No?

Speaker 5 (05:57):
No, And so I don't understand that. So that's that's
one of the wildest things I heard. You know, then
then you have guys like I mean, I argument with him.
Chris Sims sent out a tweet saying, Oh, look at
Milik Willis is going to be a superstar, And I went, Chris,
what are you talking about? Well, you don't you know,
you don't know, you don't know, the same people didn't

(06:19):
think Patrick Mahomes would be any good. And I go, no, no,
I was one of the guys that actually thought Patrick
Mahomes would be good. So you can't go there. And
he's like, and I go, I know, your dad can't
possibly think that Malik Willis is going to be superstar.
He goes, oh, he thinks he's really good too, And
I go, oh too, Sims are wrong, man, I mean,
come on me a break.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Can I ask you about Daniel Jones?

Speaker 6 (06:38):
Uh, you know, maybe staring at the franchise tag, but
also in a similar situation of what he was in
in New York. How do you see this playing out?
I'm just what do you think of Daniel Jones? Is
he deserving of that tag or that long term deal?

Speaker 5 (06:53):
Well? I think they're going to protect themselves by putting
the tag on it, whether it's the transition tag or
the franchise tag. They're going to try and protect themselves
to try and get more time. If they can't get
a long term deal done with them today. That's what
I think they want to do. They want to keep him.
I think ideally he'd like to be there. And the
other thing is is you get put the transition tag
on him. Where's he going? Who's going to sign him
to a long term contract and then have the team

(07:14):
with the ability to match it. And some people said,
well maybe Minnesota, but the Vikings don't have any money.
They're releasing veterans to try and get clear of the
cap as it is, so I don't know where he
would go. So I think the mechanism for this is
to protect themselves as they work out a long term deal,
because if they can work out a long term deal
with him today, then they can put the tag on

(07:35):
Piers and I think that's what they'd like to do.
And again, remember this regime, they traded two ones to
go get Sauce Gardener, right, so they're all in and
everybody in the world knows Chris Ballard needs to win now,
so he's got to make sure that he has this
quarterback in place, and I think he's got to make
sure he keeps out Piers. So I would think that

(07:57):
if they don't get a long term deal done with
with Owes today, then they tag him and then try
and get a long term deal done with him, but
they're in their grand schemes. They get both of them back.

Speaker 4 (08:08):
As you're in that in your mind, what he's done
so far in Andy, what.

Speaker 5 (08:14):
Jaron Achilles and break a leg? I mean you know,
do you? Well? This is how desperate we are in
this league right now, is you've got a guy coming
up in Achilles who played with a broken leg, who's
going to get probably forty million dollars a year to
play quarterback for you. I mean what we're desperate. And

(08:35):
if think about it, they tested them aside with a
giant they didn't want them.

Speaker 6 (08:39):
See, he didn't change your mind at all last year
when he was playing and then playing on high level.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
You got to give me more than seven ten games
or whatever it was. Brady, Come on, do you think
he's a forty million dollars year quarterback?

Speaker 6 (08:53):
Well, look, I don't think milk should be as an
egg should be as expensive as they are. It doesn't matter,
it's what it costs. Right Like we have the we
can have this philosophical debate on we won if you
believe he's a franchise quarterback, which I think Chris Ballard
and Shane Steike can do, then they've got to pay
that price.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
Well, okay, I'm gonna go I'm gonna use the New
York Jets as example. What the hell are they doing
at quarterback? Okay? And so when you look at the.

Speaker 6 (09:18):
Jets, Malik Willis, Daniel Jones, go tank, go tank, place
play play anybody and tank.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
And then you go into the draft next year and
get all those draft picks and you go get yourself
a quarterback. But all you're doing is delaying the inevitable
with those guys. That's all you're doing. You're not getting
to where you need to be. You're not getting a
franchise quarterback. So everybody thinks, oh, well, we can piece
it together and get a quarterback in there and win
nine ten games, and then then what then what? Then
you're stuck with the guy. And somebody said, well, they

(09:50):
could trade a second round pick for mac Jones, they
could trade a second round pick for you know, Baigent,
you can trade and then what happens? Then then you're
stuck with that guy. Now what if you he plays okay,
then you're stuck with him now for the next decade.
Maybe a break what are we doing. Go Tank, go
into the draft next year and go get one of
the quarterbacks.

Speaker 6 (10:07):
Tank, can I can I follow up and ask you
this question, Pete? On that note, I said this, I
think it was yesterday, and LeVar feels like I'm going
out on a limb here saying this. But I said,
if Fernando Mendoza was in next year's quarterback draft class,
I'm not sure how high he be ranked, Like, I
don't know that he'd be higher than maybe four five

(10:31):
is somewhere in that ball.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
I'm not I'm not quite sure because it's such a
loaded class.

Speaker 6 (10:35):
I've been in the combine before where I've heard the
buzz about future classes.

Speaker 4 (10:40):
Did you hear some of that at this year's combine?

Speaker 5 (10:43):
No question about it. But but again, Brady, going into
this year, there was a lot of buzz about this
year's class at one point, remember I mean everybody, Yeah,
but that.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
Was Here's Here's what I'd say, is I never bought
into that.

Speaker 6 (10:56):
I like Leonora's like Leonois Sellers that there's a number
of players that I was like tellers.

Speaker 5 (11:01):
And and Nustmyron wasn't any good and uh, you were
a big N's.

Speaker 6 (11:05):
My guy and a lot of people, you know, some
of the quarterbacks that are throwing around. I didn't see it.
It's to me, it's this next year's class, twenty twenty seven.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
I've said this all along. These guys have heard it enough.

Speaker 6 (11:17):
But that's the class that I look at and say,
there could be five or six guys to go in.

Speaker 8 (11:21):
The first round.

Speaker 5 (11:22):
I'm with you. I'm with you, and you're talking about
Arch who probably will end up being number one.

Speaker 6 (11:26):
By the way, that would take CJ's Carr's odds over
him right now.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
Well, you know what, Dante Moore might go over both
of them.

Speaker 5 (11:34):
No, No, Dante Moore, your guy at Notre Dame. You
got the kid at USC, you got the kid at
U c l A. If he's got broad talent. I mean,
you know there's that kid's big long.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
Kid, the kid at I You. I mean, you could
go down the list.

Speaker 5 (11:47):
There's a lot of Hoover, the swords kid, the.

Speaker 6 (11:51):
Kid in Miami this year. Darien Mens is going to
be an interesting prospect to watch.

Speaker 5 (11:54):
I mean, Brady so So, to answer your question, yes,
so that's why if you're the Jets tank, I think,
why would you.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Want to win Pete.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Don't you feel like that's kind of what Miami and
Arizona are doing though, too, because it like you can't argue,
like I don't want to hear that, well, Miami's got
a better option at quarterback or Arizona's got a better
option at quarterback other than those two. But it feels
like even if Miami's got to swallow ninety nine million
dollars in dead cap money, it just feels like their

(12:23):
decision to move on and not give it a go
understanding nobody's probably going to trade for those guys and
it's going to hurt him from a cap standpoint, seems
to me like we've seen, we've seen everything we wanted
to see from both these guys. If this year sucks,
so be it even better. We'll just go get one
of those quarterbacks next year.

Speaker 5 (12:43):
Correct, which is why they'll play with Quinn Ewers and
what they I mean, would you rather play with Quinn
Eewers and get one next year or go pay Malik Willis?
And the answer to that question I think is pretty obvious.
You play with Quinn Viewers and then you go get
one next year. That's what I would do In Arizona
If Arizona goes and pays Malik Willis, then they're not
going to be one of those teams that goes against
the quarterback next year. So you hear that maybe they

(13:04):
like Jimmy Garoppolo as the stopcat guy. But again, all
you're doing is delaying the inevitable. If you if you
play and decide to pay journeyman quarterbacks, all you're doing
is to laying in the inevitable. You got to get
that guy. If you get that guy, then you're going
to win games for a long time. If you get
that guy, you're going to be able to, you know,

(13:25):
supplement your roster around them and win a lot of games. Now,
the Seahawks proved that you can win with another guy,
but again they had one of them.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
They had Fetch Well, Sam Darl's not a franchise guy.

Speaker 5 (13:36):
Now, it was a reclamation project. What are you talking about.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
I agree you don't view a franchise guy.

Speaker 8 (13:42):
Now he just won a Super Bowl. I agree with you.

Speaker 5 (13:44):
Pete, Brad Johnson and Trent Dilfer won Super Bowls and
Nick Foles won the greatest accident he run in the
history of the football league.

Speaker 6 (13:51):
So so yeah, Laar, you might be a hater because
you wait too much with Pete Brad Brad Johnson's a
good pool was was Brad and franchise?

Speaker 8 (14:00):
I went Tampa one. No, he was a journeyman at
that point, right, exactly who he was.

Speaker 5 (14:04):
Trent Dilfer was a journeyman when he won. Nick Foles,
Nick Foles was a journeyman when he won. It doesn't
mean you're just because your team wins the Super Bowl
doesn't mean you're a franchise quarterback. I mean you won
a super Bowl, It doesn't mean you're a franchise What.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
About Joe Flacco.

Speaker 8 (14:20):
The former? Yeah, I mean Jo the way he wanted in.

Speaker 7 (14:25):
Baltimore, he was a franchise quarterback. Yeah, absolutely, I agree.

Speaker 6 (14:29):
What about Eli Manning, Yeah, franchise quarterback. Okay, I mean
you're you're We're just trying to draw those se where
you draw the line. P. I mean some people think
Eli Manning didn't have great regular seasons. He was just
good in the playoffs.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
He's one of the top ten passers in yards and
touchdowns Brady all time.

Speaker 6 (14:45):
I mean, what about Mark Rippin, But also that that's
a sliding scale. Peat like Stafford's going to pass the number.
You know, there's other quarterbacks that are surpassing that.

Speaker 8 (14:55):
So you by the way about album.

Speaker 5 (14:56):
Until Tom Brady did it, he was the only quarterback
who came down from behind in the fourth quarter down
by a touchdown. He needs two games, I mean in
the Super Bowl. So I mean, look, Eli Mannings, a
franchise quarterback pick by his team, played for his team,
won super bowls for his team. Bouncing around from from
We're just.

Speaker 4 (15:14):
Trying to see what you draw the line because apparently
got a hard time.

Speaker 5 (15:18):
From the Jets to Carolina to to Minnesota to Seattle.
Doesn't make you a franchise pate.

Speaker 8 (15:23):
Are you going to take that from Brady Quinn?

Speaker 7 (15:27):
I didn't even bring up Danny Mourrino yet any more
thing you're going to take that from from Brady got
to be Oh man, he's ragging on you bad. You
just handling it, man, You just you just taking it.

Speaker 5 (15:39):
I just I just tend to block him out because
I know it's.

Speaker 9 (15:46):
You.

Speaker 7 (15:47):
Don't work with you as much as I do. You
don't get the right to say that.

Speaker 8 (15:51):
People don't even start with your.

Speaker 10 (15:53):
Y festival to day, y yak, yuch yack.

Speaker 6 (16:01):
We we were trying to anticipate what you say about
Daniel Jones. I don't know if I had accurately described
it to the boys, they'd have to tell you that
you are.

Speaker 11 (16:12):
There, it is, are it is.

Speaker 5 (16:17):
I mean, just because you win a super Bowl doesn't
really change.

Speaker 8 (16:20):
I know, we're just trying.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
To stoke the flames of your fire, sir, But let.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
Me ask.

Speaker 8 (16:27):
That, Oh, oh wow.

Speaker 4 (16:31):
Don't you talk about Teddy?

Speaker 5 (16:33):
Don't you know like that he never won a Super Bowl?
But you're gonna tell me Sam Donald's in the same zip.

Speaker 8 (16:40):
Just relax, Pete.

Speaker 6 (16:41):
Hey, you were at the cobbin though, And one of
the things we're talking about too, is just it feels
like it's losing its luster a bit, even coming off
of a combin where like everyone supposed to ran the
fastest forty yard dash time ever besides Cardnell. Say, but
of course Adam Schefter came out and curious water for that.
But do you do you start to get a sense
that the this is losing a bit of its luster.
It's not really the gem that the NFL thought it

(17:03):
would be. For TV ratings and attention, Yes I do,
and I.

Speaker 5 (17:08):
Think still for the medicals and the interviews. I think
it's important. But on the field stuff, these guys are
player empowerment is the thing. Now they're going to stop
working out. I'm not going to you know, why should
I come here and do your workout when I can
do mine at my pro day and be much more comfortable.
And even then, if you're a player, what's to say?
Players are not going to say I'm not working out anymore.

(17:29):
I'm not going to do it at my pro day.
I'm not going to do it at my combine. You're
not getting the forty time on me. And see how
that works out because they got to draft guys. What
if the whole group decided none of us are running,
none of us are going to run forties, none of
us are going to bench press. You're going to draft
this off our tape. How about that? And see how
the league handles that. Because I think, and I'm in
the minority, I'm not enamored by the forty times and

(17:53):
the skills and all the drills and everything else, because
I think football is what matters. There's been many a
guy that has run fast forty times, he doesn't play fast.
There's been many guys Jerry Rice who didn't run a
fast forty times? Who played fast? He played fast? And
you know what, when I remember I asked Jerry Rice
once about that, he looked at me and he said,

(18:14):
did anybody ever touch me from behind? I said no,
but he goes, well, there you go. And that's the
bottom line. It's football. It's not drills, it's not you
know what, if ruben Bain's arm had been half an
inch longer, would there be any conversation about it? Not
one bit. And so I think we get too caught
up in a lot of that stuff, and I think

(18:35):
at some point we have to just go back and
watch football players playing football, because that's all that matters.

Speaker 8 (18:41):
I like that, Pete. That was very well stayed.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
It's true football guy right there.

Speaker 5 (18:46):
You think I should be a GM somewhere. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (18:48):
I don't know that it deserves GM attached to it,
but it was well, it was well stated.

Speaker 4 (18:54):
Do you imagine that.

Speaker 7 (18:57):
No one would be safe? I could guarantee that I
would say, you know what.

Speaker 5 (19:01):
I'd have a lot of philosophies that most of these
teams should adhere to.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
By the way, By the way, you want to hear
a Pete response to one of his detractors on social media.
So Pete gave his thoughts on the David Montgomery trade
and just tweeted out, trading picks for a back entering
his eighth season is not something that would be on
my Bingo card. And some guy responded, nobody asked about

(19:26):
your Bingo card, to which Pete responded, Yet you responded
new Bingo card, saying goodbye to idiots today, See you, Pete?

Speaker 8 (19:35):
Can you Jonas?

Speaker 4 (19:38):
Did you block him?

Speaker 5 (19:39):
I block him?

Speaker 8 (19:41):
Can you help Jonas please? Jonas doesn't block? Yeah.

Speaker 7 (19:46):
I think all of these people that live on his timeline,
he should block them, like they're only relevant is sitting
there and putting buffoonery on his timeline. I think he
should block. I think by the time this segment is over,
he should have already started blocking all of the people
that are on his timeline right now. Yeah, I don't

(20:08):
do it.

Speaker 5 (20:08):
Well, well, here's what you do. If somebody is just
like you, having a disagreement with you, that's one thing.

Speaker 8 (20:15):
No it's not, it's harassment.

Speaker 5 (20:17):
If it's harassment, then you should block them all.

Speaker 8 (20:18):
Yeah, it's harassment.

Speaker 5 (20:19):
Block them all you do, and then you say you
tell them you block them And you know what's funny
about that is when I do that to somebody, I
can't tell you how many people chime.

Speaker 8 (20:32):
In and go get up, Pete.

Speaker 11 (20:33):
You love it, kill them, see you goodbye. You know
they love it.

Speaker 5 (20:36):
And so it became I don't do it as much anymore.
I used to get nasty on there and block tons
of people. But now if you you know, if you're
just being an idiot, I'm gonna block it.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
Pete.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
I did want to ask you before we let you go, Jonas.
It is uh, it is your time to shine and
there's mock drafts. You're gonna do your draft grades? When
the draft does come around, do you have I know
it's still a little bit early, but do you have
a bold take or a I guess, a unique take
or prediction on the NFL draft coming up based on

(21:08):
your market? Ousis thus far like.

Speaker 5 (21:10):
Where somebody's gonna go?

Speaker 1 (21:11):
Yeah, like maybe a surprise it might differentiate from somebody else.

Speaker 5 (21:15):
Not yet too early in that I got to wait
to free agency before I even do a mock draft.
I think these mock drafts that are done before free
agency are pointless. To be honest with you, I mean,
what do you put a guy in like a pass rusher,
and a team goes and spends forty five million on
a pass rusher, you think they're still going to draft
another one. I mean, it's hard to do a mock
draft without without being able to sit here and say, Okay,

(21:38):
well this is what they need. So I won't even
do one or to after free agency next week and
then I'll do a mock draft. But I'm gonna be
on record of saying that I'm not drafted a safety
in the top ten. Like everybody has downs going I
just I'm not doing that. And so I again, I
think this is a good safety class. I think there's
a ton of safeties in free agency. See, and you

(22:01):
look at the teams who won Super Bowl in the
last two years. Just just a name too. You look
at the Notre Dame, Kid Brady, your kid Julian? Where
Didulian Julian Love?

Speaker 3 (22:13):
Where did Jeremiah?

Speaker 5 (22:14):
He came from the Giant.

Speaker 8 (22:15):
He came from the Joint.

Speaker 5 (22:16):
Sorry, yeah, it came from the Giants. And then he
got Kobe Bryant, who was a converted corner fourth round
pick the year before it was Red Blanketship, who, by
the way, was an undrafted player is now a free agent,
and Chauncey Gardner Johnson, who is a fourth round pick.
You can get safeties, get the guys up front. So
I'm not taking I think downs good player, a lot
of good safeties in this draft. I'm not taking him
in the top ten.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
What about a running back?

Speaker 5 (22:40):
Look, Jeremiah Jeremiah Love is a really good running back, Brady,
Don't get me wrong. I think he's explosive as hell
and he has a lot to do. But I ain't
taken him in the top ten.

Speaker 7 (22:50):
I think Allen is the best running back in the running.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Well, you're a.

Speaker 5 (22:57):
You're a homer propendan, hold on, hold.

Speaker 8 (23:00):
On a second.

Speaker 7 (23:01):
Brady just brought up a Notre damer and I get
the breaks, the break.

Speaker 8 (23:08):
And you know what, that's fine, that's fine.

Speaker 6 (23:10):
When every when did I say, I didn't say it
Notre Dame running back said running back?

Speaker 5 (23:15):
Everybody the top, No, I didn't.

Speaker 8 (23:21):
We know what you were implying. We know, we know
what he well, he should be brought up.

Speaker 5 (23:31):
Isn't better than the backup running back?

Speaker 6 (23:32):
And it's fat man not say Jarian is the second
best running back in the draft.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
He you don't think Alan would start at Notre Dame.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
Alan wouldn't start at Notre Dame.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
No, he said, he's not even back up.

Speaker 5 (23:49):
Dame.

Speaker 8 (23:51):
You got.

Speaker 4 (23:53):
Even admit that.

Speaker 7 (23:54):
By the way, he's a former Penn State coach, exactly what.

Speaker 5 (24:00):
Notre Dame. By the way, I think he's a good
pun to rate a player.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Also, I would say this when you're saying saying, don't
take a running back top ten. Kansas City's picking at nine,
Cincinnati's picking at ten. You mean to tell me they
wouldn't go Jeremiah Love if you sitting there with the
opportunity to to help that offense and take some pressure
to the quarterback. Yeah, Cincinnati, And that's it's a pretty

(24:28):
talented guy that's just sitting there. I mean, it feels like,
especially Kansas City could use some help at running back.
I don't know the last time.

Speaker 5 (24:34):
That I is going to pay a running back of
free agency. I think they might pay ETM, which I
wouldn't do either. By the way.

Speaker 1 (24:41):

Speaker 1 (26:42):
All right, Petros, I was listening yesterday and I caught
the tail end of the conversation.

Speaker 3 (26:48):
By the radio show I work on the afternoon.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
Petros some Money, and I heard you mentioned that you're
not a big fan of Nike, and I was just
that where that started and why that's the case.

Speaker 10 (27:00):
Well, it's not because they're making a Bronnie James shoe
with like a little lowercase B with a nine or
a nine in it, because it's Bronnie and nine.

Speaker 1 (27:13):
But uh yeah, doesn't JJ McCarthy have that trademark at
this point.

Speaker 10 (27:18):
No, there's a trademark for Bronnie. It's a bee, a
lowercase B with a nine in it, and you can
buy it now on the Nike website under the lebron
shoe and they only come and pink, all right?

Speaker 8 (27:35):
Is it not kidding? Is it for breast awareness?

Speaker 3 (27:39):
No, it's for Bronnie.

Speaker 4 (27:41):
But I call breast cancer awareness.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
I do. I'm aware. I'm aware, like I'm not blind.

Speaker 8 (27:49):
I see it.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
But so you're gonna get a pair? I mean, where
are we going with this?

Speaker 3 (27:57):
I don't know. But Jonas asked me, Well, no, I asked,
what we do.

Speaker 10 (28:01):
We don't call Bronnie James Bronnie James on our show.
We call them Johnny Braims ex.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Because I'm just wondering because you kind of swore.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Off them and Jabron Lames.

Speaker 1 (28:14):
You kind of swore off Nike as a whole, and
I was just wondering why that was.

Speaker 3 (28:17):
Well, I'm legally crippled, Jonas.

Speaker 10 (28:19):
I have a cadaver bone and about seven or eight
screws and pins in my right foot. Actually, I've had
the bad foot longer than I've had the good foot
because I broke it in my early twenties, and that
was in a Nike, one of those Nike cleats that
we would wear back then, and so ever since then,
I've never worn another.

Speaker 8 (28:39):
I never liked Nikes anywhere.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
They're too skinny on my wide feet.

Speaker 10 (28:43):
And so and now I can't even wear shoes that
have an arch because I have no arch in my
right foot and I'm.

Speaker 8 (28:51):
In a lot of pain.

Speaker 10 (28:53):
So I wear Chucks and vans that are just flat,
and I walk around like a flat foot hustler. Now,
when I had to play one more year with the
badfoot after a year of surgery and infection, uh, I
wore one Nike on my left foot and which is
still a size thirteen, and my right foot, which is

(29:15):
now an eleven and a half. I where I wore
an Adidas with the logo removed and a Nike logo
sewn on to it. So, yes, that was that the
story you wanted, Joe.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
I had no idea the backgard and so your foot
shrink a size and a half following the surgery. That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Well, which surgery, jonas it was, it was kind of
an ordeal.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
Well, the yeah, I'm assuming you know, it would have
been an ordeal for to shrink that much.

Speaker 10 (29:47):
Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, And I blame Nike and Phil
Knight and the Swoosh and the Organ Ducks and Tracktown
USA and Kaepernick and everybody.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
All Right, there's that one.

Speaker 3 (30:03):
Anybody who's ever worked for Nike play in the moment.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
Steve free Fontaine can get it too.

Speaker 10 (30:08):
Howard Slusher, the guy that helped start it. He used
to come in my dad's restaurant all the time.

Speaker 8 (30:12):
To hell with you.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
I wish he was a really nice guy.

Speaker 7 (30:16):
What are your feelings about the Lakers right now and
where they're currently You know where they're sitting right now.

Speaker 8 (30:24):
Well, I think it's the same as it always is.

Speaker 10 (30:27):
They're gonna beat really bad teams like they barely did
last night, and then there's going to be an argument
on the twenty four hour shows that the Lakers are
fine and look at Lebron's numbers and blah blah blah
and Lucas scored forty, and then they're going to play
decent teams or teams that are are good, and they're

(30:49):
going to lose, and they're gonna lose badly.

Speaker 3 (30:52):
So that's kind of where they are. That's not where
you want to be as an NBA team is in
the middle.

Speaker 10 (30:57):
You either want to be contending or loading up to contend,
and they're not there, and they don't seem to like
each other very much. Almost everything Lebron says or does
is a terrible contradiction of his past, and we.

Speaker 8 (31:13):
Just live in the world.

Speaker 10 (31:14):
It really does feel and I'm sure I said this
on your show, but the Lakers kind of feel like
a parent who's got a kid who they're trying to
get to leave the house, and that kid is Lebron.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
And they can't do anything.

Speaker 10 (31:33):
They can't create any of their dreams or execute their
plans for the guest room making it a gym or
an office or whatever when Lebron is still there.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
So everybody knows Lebron is the problem.

Speaker 10 (31:48):
Lebron's salary, Lebron's contract, Lebron's attitude and playing with Lebron,
all the stuff that we've seen over the years, people
getting fired, people getting moved, all the contradictions victory stuff
that comes along with getting nailed by the King. It's
just gonna happen until the end of the season, and

(32:08):
the Lakers can't really move until then. So I think
it's just they're in a very very awkward position and
whenever they win, all the Lebron media minions go out
and talk about how awesome everything. Whenever they lose, they
run for the hills or blame somebody else. Now everybody's
getting after Luka Doncic in town because I guess he

(32:29):
is kind of a bitch complaining. Yeah, he complains a lot,
I guess, and he's like lost his mind complaining. He
can't even control himself anymore. He got a technical complaining
after missing a free throw last night when they actually
did call the foul for him and he was still complaining.
They got he missed a free throw that he went
over and started complaining and they called him tech.

Speaker 5 (32:50):
So it is.

Speaker 10 (32:51):
It's a pretty amazing thing to watch develop, but it's
more like always, like pretty much every year, other than
the Bubble cham be a Chip, which we can argue
about forever, it feels like the same as every other
Laker team that Lebron's been on. Something that's gonna be
over soon, but everybody's gonna talk about it all the

(33:13):
time until it's over, and after it's over, and Lebron's
gonna make it all about himself and his legacy and
Johnny Braims and his pink shoes, and it's never gonna end.
Once the year's over, we'll see what the Lakers can
do trying to build around Luka, Doncicch and Austin Reeves.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
Every time you say nail the King, you're getting nailed
by the King.

Speaker 6 (33:33):
I just I keep thinking this is gonna be some
sort of docuseries that comes out in Elvis Presley that's
not gonna be too favorable to him. I don't know
why that just flashes in my brain. It was the
colonel's fault. What happened to Elvis? Okay, it was the
colonel's fault. I'm just saying, I want to try King,
do you. I'm sure you saw that the state of

(33:57):
Mississippi has apparently done away with.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
Standingham tax on NIOL law, which was you know, put.

Speaker 6 (34:05):
Forth and prompted because other surrounding states like Tennessee and
Florida and Texas.

Speaker 4 (34:10):
So they're competing with within the SEC are doing the
same thing.

Speaker 6 (34:14):
Which, mind you, those states don't have stadinghum tax for anyone,
let alone nil money. I know there's I know there's
some issues in the state of California, like, for example,
that lax rail connection that's.

Speaker 4 (34:27):
Still four years late. That's not gonna be ready for
the World Cup.

Speaker 8 (34:30):
Do you think there's a.

Speaker 10 (34:31):
Chance, Brady, Brady, Brady, here's a he's here's a newsflash
for you. That thing ain't never gonna be ready.

Speaker 8 (34:37):
Breath.

Speaker 10 (34:38):
Forget the World Cup, forget the Olympics, forget the Olympics
in thirty forty four.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
That thing ain't getting ready. I'm just wilding that.

Speaker 6 (34:48):
If UCLA, USC Stanford, if those schools can lobby Gavin
Newsom to do with the Standingham tax and the state
of California for the nil so that California can be
more competitive in that nature, well, I think they have
a lot more to weighe through here when it comes
to anything, and I do.

Speaker 10 (35:06):
I don't think it's going to happen in California. I
think we tax people just for breathing here in California.
If you own a house and stuff like that, they'll
tax the hell out of you that on the other hand,
or you know, yeah, well I don't know. Yeah, but
in Louisiana, I think that's pretty funny. So we will
not allow these young workers to be declare, oh my wife,

(35:32):
young miss lady Anna, she created the beautiful chandelier.

Speaker 3 (35:38):
That hangs here in the groove, and we will not
allow these young men to be exploited and tasked by
the state of Mississippi. That's a wonderful thing, I think.

Speaker 10 (35:49):
I think it's hilarious what's happening in some judge who
literally has like Laane Kiffin T shirt on an old
miss T shirt under his robe probably.

Speaker 4 (36:02):
Made that decision.

Speaker 10 (36:03):
But yeah, like it is kind of funny because college
football is a government thing and a lot of states,
I mean it really is, the highest paid person in
this state or that state is either the football coach
or the men's basketball coach generally, and so states are involved.

(36:25):
I remember Louisiana, the governor when they fired Brian Kelly
came out and had all this stuff to say, and
it's the governor of the state. Like everybody's saying, like,
don't you have better things to worry about? And the
answer is no. Football is a huge deal in these
places and their identity is through Ole miss or Mississippi State,
probably to a lesser degree.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
And it's just because somebody's a judge doesn't.

Speaker 10 (36:52):
Mean that they don't have blood running through their veins
and they're not a human being and you don't have
those kind of biases. And I do love the fact that, like,
like Leonardo DiCaprio's character in Jango unchained, Mississippi's.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
Like, oh, come down here now you know.

Speaker 8 (37:12):
Things guys.

Speaker 13 (37:13):
Okay, I like Samuel personally, Jago, you black son of
a bit. These people people you can't let him sleep
in the house Jango.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Do you think he do you think do you think
Lancito had an agenda back in the day?

Speaker 8 (37:39):
Was he a big lance Edo?

Speaker 1 (37:41):
Yeah? Was he a big usc honk.

Speaker 10 (37:43):
All I know is that Lancido loved the ovg Lemono
soup at my father's restaurant, made with lemon, chicken, broth
and rice.

Speaker 8 (37:53):
Sounds good. That sounds really good and egg. Hm hmm,
it's very good. Actually it's a good site at.

Speaker 9 (37:58):
The Ivy Yesterdays what nineteen Yeah, that tracks that, Yeah,
it does.

Speaker 7 (38:12):
I mean, you won't tell you you won't come meet
me downtown and Rodondo's I went out.

Speaker 10 (38:17):
I had dinner and Redondo the other night with my wife.
Where we go We went to the New Italian restaurant
that's over there.

Speaker 3 (38:25):
Ill post.

Speaker 8 (38:27):
Thanks, thanks for the VI.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
I should have invited you, sweetheart. Have you ever heard?

Speaker 10 (38:31):
I know it's our only night together and at the
but the kids are in Catalina camp. Let's let's let
you do you remember a linebacker named Lafar.

Speaker 8 (38:43):
Don't even have to leave with that, just say coming
to hang.

Speaker 10 (38:46):
Let's groanie, he's coming down to meet us. He lives
in the Hollywood River era.

Speaker 8 (38:52):
Damn, that sucks, Petros. You don't you don't love me?

Speaker 3 (38:56):
No, I should have done it.

Speaker 8 (38:57):
I should have.

Speaker 7 (38:59):
No, you used a whole lot of sarcasm there, and
you know what you've been picking on me all show.

Speaker 8 (39:06):
Now you get on that.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
What did you know?

Speaker 8 (39:08):
Me?

Speaker 4 (39:08):
And I just I get And he's what they said
about it.

Speaker 8 (39:14):
They did just an easy target for you, guys. Get young.
I have no idea why I do not hate Trey Young.

Speaker 3 (39:21):
First of all, let's start this out. Let's start.

Speaker 8 (39:24):
It's funny. It's not it's not funny at all.

Speaker 10 (39:27):
Number one, Number one joas he'll sit out. I enjoyed
the restaurant, but they did charge me for bread.

Speaker 8 (39:34):
Oh man, that's what they do these days.

Speaker 3 (39:37):
Five bucks.

Speaker 7 (39:38):
I mean they charge you for for sauces to condiments
like you know, catch up and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (39:44):
We'll charging kind of bread were talking about, just like
your standard run of the mill.

Speaker 3 (39:48):
They toasted it. They served him with some vinegary stuff.

Speaker 8 (39:50):
They toasted it.

Speaker 3 (39:52):
Uh, you know, it makes a difference.

Speaker 8 (39:55):
Is Trey Young a Hall of Famer?

Speaker 3 (39:57):
Okay?

Speaker 8 (39:57):
Well, first will be a Hall of Famer? Will he
be a hall You think?

Speaker 10 (40:01):
What I noticed about him the other day is his
hair is really filled in like whatever whatever he did, like, you.

Speaker 3 (40:07):
Know, he had a bad lid. He's out of.

Speaker 4 (40:12):
Beijing. What do they call it?

Speaker 7 (40:13):
He didn't get that, but that's paint, that's I don't
know that he has the type of architecture where Beijing
would help him.

Speaker 10 (40:20):
Like, yeah, he almost looked like one of those guys
from the eighties who had a curl and he was
losing his hair.

Speaker 3 (40:26):
In fact, that's exactly what he looks at.

Speaker 8 (40:28):
That is what it looks like for a long time.

Speaker 10 (40:31):
And now I saw the other night get kicked out
of the game when he wasn't really even in the game,
or wasn't dressed, I wasn't playing, and he hasn't played
yet for the whiz.

Speaker 8 (40:39):
I think he's coming back soon.

Speaker 10 (40:41):
But he got kicked out of a game the other
day and I saw his lid and I was like, wow,
that is really filled.

Speaker 7 (40:46):
It in, Like somebody's bound to figure it out. I mean, yeah,
Lebron hasn't figured it out.

Speaker 8 (40:54):
He was fighting it now, he was fighting it with
the Beijing.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
He figured it out. Whatever.

Speaker 10 (40:59):
Whatever Lebron has done over the years, he has figured
out his hair.

Speaker 8 (41:03):
Not lately. Have you seen his head lately?

Speaker 3 (41:06):
Not lately.

Speaker 10 (41:07):
Maybe that's because of his furious postgame skull brushing, but.

Speaker 4 (41:13):
What is what is he brushing exactly? He doesn't that
much hair up there, Like what you.

Speaker 8 (41:19):
Got to stimulate the follicles, man, that's why you brush it.

Speaker 7 (41:22):
If you brush it, you're stimulating the follicles, which could
some way, somehow potentially have your hair start to sprout.
It has to be like a tad bit of a
like sometimes you have to have firmer bristles. It can't
be super soft so that it can kind.

Speaker 3 (41:43):
Of scratch it off his skull when he's doing.

Speaker 7 (41:46):
That well, because you got to really really stimulated, you know,
like the X sprout.

Speaker 3 (41:54):
The X f foul is going to come back before
lebron Ship.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
So Tommy Madig's statue Knight, they're gonna bring it all back.

Speaker 3 (42:03):
I was playing with him the La Extreeme. You that team.

Speaker 10 (42:09):
Well they called me run over and oh yeah it was.
Our whole offensive line went too. But I'm crippled. I
can't do anything. Remember we talked about my foot.

Speaker 7 (42:17):
How long did it take for you to give up
on football? Like you know how guys are done with football?

Speaker 3 (42:22):
But that was when I kept playing for a year
with my one skinny leg.

Speaker 8 (42:26):
Okay, dang the MRSA leg.

Speaker 3 (42:29):
I had to get a shot in the bottom of
the foot before every game my last.

Speaker 8 (42:33):
Year, So that was I could dig the nectar of
the gods shot bruh.

Speaker 5 (42:38):
I get that.

Speaker 8 (42:40):
It was with me to last too. Yeah, no doubt.

Speaker 3 (42:42):
Who's lined up there?

Speaker 8 (42:43):
Oh that there's a tea trade everybody. Uh, like you
was getting free food.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
Anyway. I don't know why you hate Trey Young so much.

Speaker 4 (42:54):
I don't.

Speaker 8 (42:54):
I don't, But you never answered the question is he
a hall of Famer? Do you think he's a hall
of Famer? I don't know.

Speaker 10 (43:01):
Like I don't work on I don't work with Steve,
I don't work with Steve Brussard and Squidward.

Speaker 3 (43:06):
I don't need to answer that question.

Speaker 8 (43:08):
Chris, Chris Broussard, Nick Wright Man.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
Steve Brussard was a running back for Washington State.

Speaker 8 (43:16):
Yeah he was.

Speaker 10 (43:17):
Anyway, his brother coaches a valley. Yeah, they both got
into coaching. I think the Bruceard brothers talk about lid.
That Bruceard guy's got an interesting lid.

Speaker 6 (43:30):
So I'm glad you went there because our our producer,
Patty Sweet he's he's got a pretty big dome too.

Speaker 8 (43:36):
He's said that.

Speaker 10 (43:36):
The guy that text me every Tuesday. Yeah, yeah, let
me tell you about the way this guy texts me. Hey,
Petros hold on, I got it.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
I don't know.

Speaker 10 (43:48):
Always was wondering if you could join the guys tomorrow
morning for the show.

Speaker 3 (43:54):
Blah blah blah.

Speaker 10 (43:55):
And I always right back, okay when I've done for
you did this for six years with Klay Travis, same thing,
and uh and he writes back.

Speaker 3 (44:05):
Great, I'll tell the guys every time.

Speaker 10 (44:08):
I'll tell the guy like and I always imagine him
like going back, like to the center of the neighborhood
where you guys are playing like stickball or something. He
was happy and going like, hey, guys, guess what could
you do that rambunctious Rascal the old piece coming on?

Speaker 6 (44:27):
He said, I mean, pat you've never told us that
Petros confirmed for the show.

Speaker 4 (44:33):
You just you just assume.

Speaker 3 (44:34):
I guess you always said.

Speaker 11 (44:38):
Us.

Speaker 3 (44:38):
Wow.

Speaker 7 (44:39):
No, no, he tells one person in particular, Q. So
just but I'm glad you brought that to life. You know,
I'll tell the guys. Yeah, he tells one person.

Speaker 10 (44:49):
Right, it's almost like great, I can't wait to tell
the guys, like you know something like you know, like
it's like we made the championship game in the stickball League.

Speaker 8 (44:58):
You know, wait till the.

Speaker 1 (44:59):
Guy Patty's too nice for this business. He really is.
He's too he's too innocent for this business. He's not.

Speaker 8 (45:07):
I'm gonna change my style next text trust me. Oh yeah, yeah, gonna.
I'll switch it up with you next week. Petrock.

Speaker 3 (45:14):
No, no, no, no, you don't have to text at all,
Like I'm coming on. Don't worry. I'll let you know
if there's a problem.

Speaker 8 (45:22):
Pet Just like the sun.

Speaker 4 (45:24):
You know, on Wednesdays, you're gonna get a dose of
Petros in the morning. Yeah, we're awesome.

Speaker 10 (45:29):
We used to have this guy who's like a stack.
We still have him Chris, who's a stack guy, uh
for everybody. But he works every once in a while
with play by play guys I work with a long time,
like even the guy worked with when I was in
my mid twenties early twenties, Barry Tompkins.

Speaker 3 (45:45):
And it's really interesting.

Speaker 1 (45:47):
Great boxing announcer by the way, Yes.

Speaker 8 (45:50):
Callbat sports.

Speaker 10 (45:52):
But it's very interesting because usually you know, when you
call a game, stat guy or the the spotter or
something mal materialize at a certain point at dinner with
you or or somewhere driving you. Guys somewhere they're around, uh,
as Brady can attest to. But this guy's like the
Phantom of the Opera and he never shows up until

(46:14):
like right before.

Speaker 3 (46:15):
The game, he like spins into existence and you're like,
where are you coming from?

Speaker 10 (46:20):
He's like, Wow, I just did a Tuskegee game down
to the Like You're like, damn, you know where are
you going from? Here?

Speaker 3 (46:25):
Wow? I'm gonna drive myself to Boise.

Speaker 10 (46:27):
I got two women's games, like damn, And he just
like appears like the Phantom of the Opera, and I'd like,
I'd like the young producer to think of me as
that guy. I get like an excited when I get
like an excited text from like.

Speaker 3 (46:47):
Somebody like, hey, brother, do you think you committed to do?

Speaker 10 (46:51):
Like I think like it's gonna be something else, not
something that's already built into my life, which is this show.

Speaker 8 (46:58):
So Patty stopped hitting Petro.

Speaker 3 (47:01):
I mean you could do whatever.

Speaker 8 (47:02):
Gently tell you.

Speaker 3 (47:03):
He doesn't need to act all hard like you know
that the next one like.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
Hey, bit coming on, Hey the old bitch, come on,
hey big nose. Yeah, listen, Petros once did the show
while his house was flooding, you know, so they in
the house the room that I do the show, he

(47:29):
was in the standing water. I'm doing talking Lebron, I
probably should have.

Speaker 10 (47:34):
Yeah, what's up with the Lakers? Same as last year.
They're gonna listen to the first round. Lebron's an a hole.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Petro's always a good time.

Speaker 8 (47:44):
We appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (47:46):
He is the great Petros Papadegas and Money show on
the Blowtorch A five seventy.

Speaker 10 (47:53):
And I feel like it's in an episode of our game, like, hey,

Welcome to Welcome, saying every week it's it's a great
call about you guys, for sure, good adjusted to the segment.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
Yeah, I mean, Alo, it's the least we could do.
By the way, I saw that you weren't a big
fan of SGA's wardrobe choice post game.

Speaker 8 (49:50):
For the Oaklahom the man.

Speaker 11 (49:52):
I mean, it's just like I know this, like if
I was wearing that inside, I would be sweating my act.
I would I would. I felt hot for him looking
at that, But uh, didn't it look It didn't look
like a badger was wrapped around his neck, wrapped around
his deck And that you didn't that? Am I wrong

(50:13):
about that?

Speaker 3 (50:14):
That's fair?

Speaker 1 (50:15):
So this fair comp that's a fair.

Speaker 11 (50:18):
Comp Oh gosh, Brady, where is that jacket your rotation?

Speaker 5 (50:23):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (50:23):
Yeah, I don't have anything like that.

Speaker 6 (50:25):
We were talking about that earlier, and we're actually just curious,
like how that thing gets made, and and LeVar enlightened
us that he had a white wolf jacket like that.

Speaker 7 (50:38):
I don't know that that's how everybody gets their their coats, though,
I mean I was.

Speaker 11 (50:42):
More, wait a minute, Lamar LaVar was made of a
white wolf.

Speaker 8 (50:47):
Yeah, exactly, that's white wolf.

Speaker 4 (50:49):
Fascinating, right, Like I was like, how does this happen?
How do you find a white wolf?

Speaker 8 (50:53):
Wolf? To kill it?

Speaker 11 (50:54):
It was wolf for I mean I always think that
a white wolf would be relatively.

Speaker 7 (50:59):
Rare, right, I don't know how rare they are that
I just wanted to I wanted a wolf fur coat,
That's what I wanted.

Speaker 8 (51:08):
But I did my homework, and again, it was a rescue.

Speaker 5 (51:11):
It was not.

Speaker 8 (51:13):
I got it from. I got it from a place
where they rescue.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
It was a rescue.

Speaker 11 (51:21):
Killed it.

Speaker 7 (51:22):
They did not kill the wolf. The wolf was not
killed for it's it's uh for its fur, that's correct.
It passed away in captivity and then it was used
to warm me. That might be a horrible for it,
But that's what happened. I mean, that's the way to

(51:43):
go out anyway. I mean, you know, pack is a pack.

Speaker 3 (51:50):
Can I assure you.

Speaker 7 (51:54):
Well, I don't know what the wolf's afterlife was, but
it's fur was was in my closet, and I've lived
a three time pro bowler afterlife, you know that's what I.

Speaker 8 (52:03):
Never wore it in Hawaii. Uh, Miles Garrett got a
speeding ticket? Is that? Is that big news? When you're
it seems like didn't Shador get a speeding ticket?

Speaker 5 (52:15):
Is it?

Speaker 7 (52:16):
I mean, are they just not relaxed on guys driving fast?
And was he in Cleveland when this happen?

Speaker 4 (52:23):
Is Cleveland the professional version of Georgia?

Speaker 8 (52:25):
Is that what this is becomeing?

Speaker 10 (52:26):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (52:27):
Wow?

Speaker 11 (52:29):
Yeah? I mean I like, I like, I think he
just Miles character Kurry smash recruiting board there, right.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
I mean, you know it's it's fair. What's yout like
nine now, like seven or eight or nine speeding tickets
something like that for Miles Garrett at this point.

Speaker 11 (52:46):
I honestly like so as someone who had a lot
of speeding tickets when he was a teenager, I did.
I can remember enough, like I better chill out for
a little while at least, you know, it's easy to
it's pretty it's relatively easy to to to go a
little faster than you intend to on the highway and

(53:07):
everything else. But I do remember getting a few speedy
tickets and you know, my radar going up, like maybe
I should maybe I should be a little more careful
about this. Uh, you know, And as a teenager, that
was like a lot of money that that that was
going out the doors. So you know, I I don't know,
like a lot of these guys obviously have really nice

(53:28):
cars and no really bath without much effort, and you know,
like gotta be a little more careful than that. Gotta
be a little more careful of that.

Speaker 7 (53:38):
I wonder what the vehicle was, because you can go
fast and not know you're going fast. I mean, I
sound crazy, but you can go past the space.

Speaker 5 (53:47):
You can.

Speaker 8 (53:48):
It's true.

Speaker 11 (53:48):
I mean, like if you're on like a if you're
on like a long road trip, like I found myself
on long road trips and like, holy crap, I'm going
I'm like going ninety three, you know what I mean?
Like I that does and I think with the cars
that you might have it might be easier to get
there than even in a situation like that.

Speaker 4 (54:07):
And I can envision that scenario for you, Albert. You know,
you're going to a hockey tournament.

Speaker 6 (54:11):
You know, maybe there's some unruliness in the back seat
and your better half is just laying down the law,
which I think we've we've heard on the show once once,
you're once before, so UH, I can see that scenario
where you're like, pedal to the metal. I need to
get the hell out of this vehicle. We've all been
as as as husbands and dads, we've been.

Speaker 11 (54:31):
We've been, we've been, We've been a captivity for two whiles.

Speaker 6 (54:36):
I want to ask you about any update with Max
Crosby and a trade ensuing obviously as the beginning of
the new league year, UH approaches.

Speaker 4 (54:46):
Who's the best suitor, who's going to make a play
for him?

Speaker 11 (54:50):
Yeah, you know, I think at this point, really what
what what you're looking at is the Raiders sitting back
and letting the Marky come to them, and you know
they're asking right to tie, which should be. He's a
great player. And you know, I think for everyone involved,
the best scenario, best case scenario, is that something is

(55:11):
agreed to by early next week because you know, for
these other teams, you know, if you need net rusher,
you got to make a decision on whether or not
you're going to pursue Trey Hendrickson or ADAPTEOA or jail
and fill up, so one of the guys will be
out there next week, you know. And and then you know,
as far as the Raiders are concerned, this is probably

(55:32):
the biggest fool of candidates that you're going to have,
because once we get passed next week, they're talking about
cash budgets, cast budgets being spent. They're talking about rosters
being filled and holds being plugged, and so like you
get to that, you gotta you have passed next week,
and now all of a sudden, like everything sort of
shifts and change, you know, And so you know, I

(55:55):
do think over the next few days this is this
is at least take shape for the Raiders, and they're
gonna have to make some decisions on whether or not
the value in fart of them is worth. Uh, it's
worth moving on from that. And you know, we've been
up through all the history with the knee injury and
everything that happened with you know, Brady Guerrero and and
all that, like from December. So you know, like as

(56:19):
far as the teams that will be involved, like Chicago, Tampa,
New England. Uh, you know, I thought Seattle for a while.
I'm not sure they're gonna be willing to meet the
price to get there, but they were one that at
least initially showed some interest. Uh you know, Philadelphia I
think as an interest. So you know, you've got I

(56:42):
think a healthy number of teams I think, you know,
around the border of the league is gonna be in this.
It has been in this, and you know, I think
over the next few days you sort of hit one
of those checkpoints where a deal could be done. Doesn't
mean it's going to be done. Uh you know that
might the Parsons stide asking, But then it had a
little rich for the loot of most teams just because

(57:03):
you know, like some of these deals. But deal for
Michael has done. Michael at twenty four years old. Max
is gonna be twenty nine with when the twenty twenty
six years starts, So it's it's not the same thing,
you know, but certainly I think they're gonna be some
good offers in front of the Raiders over the course
of the next couple of days, and then they'll just
have to big a calm whether it's the time to
do it or not.

Speaker 1 (57:23):
Albert Brier joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. I
just wanted to follow up on something because there was
the report out from Mike Silver of The Athletic that described,
you know, Raiders players, people within the building not happy
about Alex Guerrero's presence. And I know, obviously you being
close to New England and working and covering that franchise

(57:45):
as well too and talking to people, how real of
an issue is that Alex Guerrero now having some influence
in Las Vegas.

Speaker 8 (57:54):
With the Raiders.

Speaker 11 (57:56):
I think it's something that I I've gotten an allowles
over the years. I think he's a he's a really
good guy, you know. I think like it's the thing
that was maybe jarring to the people there is the
number of people that report to him, the way that's structured,
you know, and that like he is in a real

(58:17):
position of power there now, you know. And so he
went from kind of being like the body coach for
for players going back a couple of years when uh,
you know, when Brady first bought into the team to
now like having having a real role, you know, and
and having real power, and so you know, you have

(58:37):
that and then you attach to that his you know,
obvious relationship with Brady and the fact that Brady is
not there every day, but there's a perception that everybody
there sort of answers to Brady, and like, I mean
just just a vision like it being your workplace, right
and you know that there's somebody that somebody answers to,

(58:59):
but he's not there every day. And then there's this
guy in the building that is sort of seen as
I don't know, like his eyes in the ears there.
You know, that would be a little weird, right, Like
that would kind of like be a little funky. And
I think that that's sort of the way that this
is set up, and is do the do the Raiders

(59:20):
need to clean that up a little bit? I think
they probably do, you know you because Guerrera does have
a hands on roll with the players too, you know,
so it's a different setup. I like, I mold, this
looks like a year from now, two years from now,
we'll see, Uh, We've seen these sorts of things in
the past. That sounds like a little unique and that

(59:42):
Brady's a limited partner. He's not the he's a controlling owner,
but obviously he he carries he carries a big stick
amount of organization and uh, you know, I think most
of the decision making there at least runs through him.
And so you're having somebody like Guerrero on hand has

(01:00:04):
complicated that a little bit and looked like I think
that's I mentioned his name be guys a bunch over
the last couple of months, that communication issue that was
there with Max, like that was the part of all
of it, you know, and Max is feeling that when
they shut him down with two games left, it was
in an effort to get a number one overall pick.
But ALLANX is involved in that too, and that's where
I think some of this this blew up with Max,

(01:00:26):
and it's it's something that I think, does you know,
need to be addressed and maybe streamlined a little bit.

Speaker 7 (01:00:34):
Ab the Chiefs, they just had a major trade take place.
They obviously sent Trent McDuffie to the Rams and got
compensation for that. I mean, I've made it a point
to say, I mean, there's the possibility that the window

(01:00:54):
is closing on on the Kansas City Chiefs. But that's
just one person's opinion. What what do we take away
from this trade from an industry perspective, Yeah, I.

Speaker 11 (01:01:05):
Would say like this is sort of, you know, part
of the reality of having a loss and a little
stopping heavy over the years, right, and trying to manage
all of that, and so you know where they are
going forward now, I would say this kind of goes
back a year where they had drafted really well and

(01:01:27):
this is sort of the result the Tyreek Hil trade
where they had a ton of picks and they hit
on a bunch of guys. And so when you hit
a bunch of a bunch of guys at once the
way that they did, you have, you know, some moving
parts and tough decisions take. So last year they started
the process of resigning some of those guys. So they
resigned Nick Bolton, they re signed George Carloftis, they re

(01:01:50):
signed Trad Smith, they resigned Creed Humphrey. And so you've
got all of these guys that have become in org
mart for them and you're resigning all those stuff. So
as part of that, they made an effort to try
to resign, tryf mcdufty and I think last year they
were pretty far apart, and the Stingley deal and the
Sauce Gardner deal affected all of that. And so now

(01:02:13):
they come into this offseason and the price has only
gone up, and I think there was like a recognition
like this is going to be really challenging to do
a deal. And so the same way that the DeVante
Adams trade and contract to twenty twenty two affected things
with Tyreek, those other negotiations affected things here with Trent

(01:02:37):
mcduffty and opened the door for that discussion, Okay, are
we better off doing the same thing with Trent that
we did with Tyreek four years ago? And I think
the answer was yes. You know, the answer was like,
let's restock. We'll have a ton of draft picks this year.
We got an extra pick next year, and we'll have

(01:02:58):
a chance to do what we did a few years ago,
which was which is make the roster a lot younger
and add more players on rookie contracts. So like that's
sort of the nuts and bolts of it and the
economics of it.

Speaker 5 (01:03:11):
Will it worked.

Speaker 11 (01:03:12):
I mean that all the times I'm getting a draft picks, right,
you know, but I do think that there was a
feeling that they were they were going to need to
restock the core and get younger core players on the ross.
So particularly with the fact that Travis Kelsea and Chris
chell It, who been such a seller, aren't going to
be around for very much longer.

Speaker 6 (01:03:33):
Hey, Al, we talked about Aaron Rodgers earlier and Pittsburgh
and just the decision that is on the horizon for
both sides of that. But I don't foresee this working out.
Do you feel like Rogers is potentially done if he
comes back? Is only Pittsburgh? Is there other teams or
another team in the mix in your mind?

Speaker 11 (01:03:53):
Yeah, I did the biggest probably Pittsburgh or or Bus. Now,
like I guess he couldn't rule up the Minnesota thing,
and like you know, he wanted to play the last
year and if Kevin o'donald picked up the phone, you know,
and it said, like, I'd love for you to be
at quarterback for a year, like cause that's a monkey wrench,

(01:04:14):
just the whole thing that's possible. I would say this
for Aeron, I have no idea what he's gonna do, right,
like I think going he knows, But what I can
say is like my experience with him and talking to
him when I have over the last few years is
I do think that like the experience of Pittsburgh last

(01:04:36):
year rekindled his love of football, and that's really what
he's been looking for the last few years. It's like,
I want to get back to enjoying the sport and
I want to enjoy when I have left as far
as my ability to play the sport at the highest level,
and even the last year and the way that he
had hoped there was that like all right, like this

(01:04:58):
was great, you know, and I love playing football again.
I love being on my teammates. And he had a
great experience playing for Mike Tomlin. And now it comes
like McCarthy back into the conversation and like a lot
of guys are staff who Wearing has relationships with, and
so it just sets up in a way where if
he does want to play football again, there's a very nice,

(01:05:21):
comfortable landing spot there right where he was last year.

Speaker 5 (01:05:26):
Again.

Speaker 11 (01:05:26):
Does he do it, I don't know, but I would
say things line up where, you know, if he does
want to play another year, it's I think it'd be
really comfortable for him to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
This Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter, lead content strategist at
the MMQB can get him on X at Albert Brier AB.
We appreciate it and enjoy the weekend. We'll do it
again next week.

Speaker 11 (01:05:50):

the next few weeks, yes, winner's over. I think you
guys can get some bargains out there. Maybe I can
help you out.

Speaker 1 (01:05:57):
Yeah, you'll be in Nantucket in no time. It's coming
up pretty quick.

Speaker 7 (01:06:01):
I'm sure they have rescue sanctuaries there too, you know. Yeah, well,
I haven't bought a fur coat in years, long long
time ago. It was a face and not only about one,
only had one there it is. It's a white wolf, ab,

to beats.

Speaker 4 (01:06:58):
Won't you come.

Speaker 8 (01:07:01):
And watch away the rain?

Speaker 7 (01:07:06):
How do you watch away rain? By the way, I
don't know. Isn't rain supposed to watch away things?

Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (01:07:14):

Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
Were they playing in like a cold place? I don't
I don't get the fur coat thing.

Speaker 4 (01:08:23):

I was always sweating, you know, like you're always I
don't know, i'd be sweating my ass.

Speaker 4 (01:08:34):
Off in that thing.

Speaker 8 (01:08:35):

Man, I did have a white wolf fur coat before
he was wait what he was rescued.

Speaker 8 (01:08:44):
He was a wrest He killed a white wolf and
made a coat out of it. It was a rescue.
It was a rescue.

Speaker 3 (01:08:51):
I have a taxi.

Speaker 8 (01:08:52):
I have a taxidermy lion.

Speaker 7 (01:08:55):
So they rescued white wolf but then killed it and
skinned it. Well, they didn't kill it. He was rescued.
He was he passed away.

Speaker 4 (01:09:04):
Oh and so instead of like I don't any hammer bearing, yeah,
I don't.

Speaker 7 (01:09:08):
Just I wouldn't do animal cruelty, like I wouldn't be like, oh, yeah,
go kill a wolf, so I can have a fur coat.

Speaker 1 (01:09:13):
It's getting called out. Put him in the driveway, step
on the gas.

Speaker 6 (01:09:15):
I don't know, but like, hold on, this actually goes
us to a different path. I mean, boss hog. It's
not like Jonas like mide a jacket out of his
or a blanket or whatever the hell you wan.

Speaker 1 (01:09:25):
He was a master.

Speaker 8 (01:09:26):
If you keep it high and tight with mastives, you know,
you could attack the derm eat them.

Speaker 4 (01:09:30):
Yeah, you could have created a rug out of it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:32):
Yeah, that wouldn't create.

Speaker 7 (01:09:33):
You don't want to walk on them having mounted like
you know that would that wouldn't create any issues.

Speaker 5 (01:09:39):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:09:40):
You know, so it was your dog and that when
it died you had him turn it into a jacket.

Speaker 8 (01:09:44):
No, it was a wolf.

Speaker 4 (01:09:47):
It was a rescue.

Speaker 7 (01:09:48):
Though it was a rescue, the story of it was
it was a rescued by the way, Yes, there's plenty
of rescue wolves.

Speaker 4 (01:09:57):
I feel like they're pretty bad ass, Like I feel
like they're they're good.

Speaker 8 (01:10:00):
And they get shot up bad ass too. You know,
they come on with some of you. You ain't never
watch Yellowstone. They'll get you now.

Speaker 4 (01:10:06):
No, I have what I'm saying.

Speaker 8 (01:10:07):
They'll pop you. You know them them farmers. They'll pop
you if they see if they see him come up
on there.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
You know, these white wolf coats are pricey.

Speaker 5 (01:10:14):
Man.

Speaker 8 (01:10:14):
Let me see, I mean, let me see so many years,
six hundred and ninety bucks. That guy just say like
a douche. But I was a douche when I wore it.

Speaker 5 (01:10:25):
You know.

Speaker 8 (01:10:25):
I didn't wear it very often, though. I think I
might have worn it to like maybe two games.

Speaker 7 (01:10:33):
Coincidentally, ironically enough, it was probably in a place like
Kansas City when.

Speaker 8 (01:10:38):
It was cold. You know, why wouldn't I was cold.
I'm just sell got it because I was cold.

Speaker 5 (01:10:43):
You know.

Speaker 4 (01:10:44):
It was with like wolves on them. I'm not seeing
an actual like wolf fur coat.

Speaker 8 (01:10:49):
It was a white wolf too.

Speaker 6 (01:10:51):
I see the one is on the wall on Poshmark Jonas. Yeah,
it was like the wolf head as part of it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:57):
Uh yeah, I saw that one.

Speaker 8 (01:10:58):
Yeah I didn't. It didn't have a wolf hit on it.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
There's another guy, guy who's wearing leather pants.

Speaker 8 (01:11:03):
Uh. First I might have had leather pants on.

Speaker 3 (01:11:08):
No shirt?

Speaker 8 (01:11:09):
What a necklace? That sounds like some prince type stuff.
I'm weird.

Speaker 1 (01:11:16):
It's like I'm looking at wolfstuff dot com. I had
no idea that this was.

Speaker 5 (01:11:20):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (01:11:22):
Also, you don't know who owns that. You don't know
the guy who was like, you know what, I'm gonna
start a website wolfstuff dot com.

Speaker 8 (01:11:28):
Yeah, I got I got it.

Speaker 4 (01:11:32):
That drink is more than coffee right now, it's like genius.
No one thought of this. I'm going to corner the
wolf market.

Speaker 7 (01:11:39):
I wanted a fur coat, but I didn't want to
perpetuate anything, any creation being hurt for me to have
a so I didn't research that.

Speaker 8 (01:11:49):
The tax found me. I wanted old wolf coat. The
taxi durmything weird.

Speaker 4 (01:11:55):
Someone else shot the wolf to then make them take
it into skin it.

Speaker 7 (01:11:59):
No, they didn't shoot it. There was no shooting involved.
It was a rescue. I don't get that.

Speaker 8 (01:12:06):
Rescue and it has like a card like it had
like a card was in the z or something like
a sanctuary.

Speaker 4 (01:12:15):
Like you said things.

Speaker 6 (01:12:19):
So we need to bring it in and put it
behind high fences because it can't help itself or can't
protect itself in the wild.

Speaker 8 (01:12:25):
Yeah, something to that effect.

Speaker 6 (01:12:27):
Isn't that how nature works? Like if you're not with
the pac man, like you're subject to whatever happens.

Speaker 8 (01:12:32):
I mean, have you ever seen Tiger King, you know,
or tiger what what was it called? Is that what
it was called with the crazy people? But the same thing, like.

Speaker 7 (01:12:40):
There are there are sanctuaries that exist around you know,
the country, in the world.

Speaker 4 (01:12:45):
If they're protecting them from people. I get it.

Speaker 8 (01:12:47):
But that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (01:12:49):
Even a lion, like the line that I named Mondevu,
like after your nephew, he was he was a rescue.
He was a rescue and they had like it like
the the story. It had his whole story, his whole story,
like they sent the story of the lion.

Speaker 4 (01:13:05):
And like how he was.

Speaker 8 (01:13:06):
You know that was a mean maybe it was just
it was a it was a Christmas.

Speaker 4 (01:13:12):
Gift and give us a lion as a Christmas.

Speaker 8 (01:13:15):
I always wanted a lion, but who gave it to you?
My wife? So Trish found a lion.

Speaker 4 (01:13:23):
It was like, yep, he was.

Speaker 8 (01:13:25):
It was a whole process.

Speaker 1 (01:13:27):
Also, it's like one of those like adopt a kid
who's got bugs on his eyelids, correct commercial, Yeah, correct.

Speaker 7 (01:13:32):
Ah, and that's awesome and then the kid, you know,
goes to the other side, the great beyond.

Speaker 8 (01:13:39):
Yeah, and just for ten cents a day, you can.

Speaker 3 (01:13:46):
Feed and is like, hey, I'll pay a lot more
ten cents a day for.

Speaker 8 (01:13:52):
That et phone.

Speaker 1 (01:13:55):
They pan over and this this uh, this thing's lick
at his balls and trying to sell it.

Speaker 8 (01:14:00):
There you go.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
For a.

Speaker 8 (01:14:04):
How you gonna pay for this? I don't know how
much it costs, but it is a bad ass line.

Speaker 1 (01:14:10):
For a penny a day. This lion can lick his
balls in your driveway too.

Speaker 3 (01:14:15):
He was not a lot.

Speaker 8 (01:14:18):
He was stuffed. He's stuffed.

Speaker 1 (01:14:19):
It was taxidermy.

Speaker 8 (01:14:21):
That's what I understand the process. So I don't tell me.

Speaker 3 (01:14:24):
You're telling me.

Speaker 4 (01:14:25):
They rescue this thing.

Speaker 6 (01:14:26):
They put it in a sanctuary, you know, high fenced
in park, which is not its natural habitat.

Speaker 4 (01:14:32):
It dies, then they skin it afterwards.

Speaker 7 (01:14:34):
Apparently where I got my lion from it was in
Africa and the taxidermist. The taxidermist is could you imagine?

Speaker 4 (01:14:44):
Could you imagine? If they're like, no, actually it was
just how you're hanging out in Texas.

Speaker 8 (01:14:48):
But that's fine too.

Speaker 1 (01:14:50):
Yeah, we met, We met Africa, Oklahoma.

Speaker 8 (01:14:52):
Hey man, I'm just giving y'all the story.

Speaker 7 (01:14:58):
Many Apparently he was a famed taxidermist. He was retiring,
he was getting up there in age.

Speaker 4 (01:15:06):
How do you get famous for being a taxidermist?

Speaker 3 (01:15:08):
It's weird.

Speaker 8 (01:15:09):
A lot of different things.

Speaker 5 (01:15:10):
Is that it?

Speaker 8 (01:15:11):
I don't know, man, It's just how it was given
to me.

Speaker 4 (01:15:13):
Like, well, I stuffed an elephant, you know, I make.

Speaker 7 (01:15:16):
Sure to that stuff is is like a really quality
taxidermist is a very very well sought after I'm used
a taxidermist.

Speaker 4 (01:15:26):
I'm not.

Speaker 6 (01:15:27):
I'm not trying to make it seem either like that
I'm discounting the profession. I'm just saying, like I'd love
to know like the qualifications of like who's the best?

Speaker 8 (01:15:35):
Like how do you know?

Speaker 4 (01:15:35):
Like what are you looking for in that guy?

Speaker 8 (01:15:37):
I mean she found him whoever he was, he's gonna
he's got to switch where it'll wink at you from
time to time. Pretty sweet. He looked like he'd come
to life.

Speaker 6 (01:15:47):
They needed to make it where like when you walk
in the room, the thing looks so damn really you're like,
oh god, it's censored, and his paw is up like that,
You're still he's like up in his like his all is.

Speaker 7 (01:16:01):
Up so so you So you guys have gotten a
pet taxidermied? Like one now got a pet taxi? I

Speaker 4 (01:16:22):
That's the insurer in you.

Speaker 5 (01:16:23):
Huh.

Speaker 1 (01:16:23):
I guess I couldn't do a taxidermy. I can't.

Speaker 8 (01:16:26):
I don't that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:27):
The whole thing creeps me out, Like you walk into
a house and it's basically your dog, but they don't
do it.

Speaker 4 (01:16:32):
You bury your dog?

Speaker 8 (01:16:33):
Is that how you bet bury him?

Speaker 4 (01:16:35):
Please?

Speaker 8 (01:16:36):
I feel a level, I feel a level of the
street comfort.

Speaker 1 (01:16:39):
No trash picks up, trash pickups every Tuesday, that's the street.
It was a Monday, it's twenty four hours later.

Speaker 4 (01:16:46):
Yeah, that's not funny.

Speaker 1 (01:16:48):
Put them put him in a glad bag in the street,
two black bags because he was four fifteen at the time.

Speaker 8 (01:16:54):
Bags and uh and they came by, you crowd, and
you still.

Speaker 4 (01:16:58):
Think this is funny.

Speaker 8 (01:16:59):
You visit him, well, what is the problem?

Speaker 1 (01:17:02):
Right next to the recycling can, right next to the
yard wast and recycling your dog?

Speaker 8 (01:17:07):
And then that's how you dispose of his body.

Speaker 7 (01:17:09):
Hey, we pay for that trash, do your job. I
had a dull corner, Come get dresser. We put him
on the garney, covered him up, wielded him out. Why
are you smiling up?

Speaker 3 (01:17:22):
Just what is wrong with you?

Speaker 4 (01:17:25):
By the way, the last when we had to put
down our boxer and it was terrible.

Speaker 6 (01:17:30):
Right on Lisha's birthday, we had done like a staycation thing,
came home and it was just like we knew it
was time. Like she she was battling cancer at that point,
and she had ripped open from a prior surgery. We
had to try to remove something to help, you know,
help her feel better prolonged life.

Speaker 4 (01:17:47):
And it was just it was a bloodbath.

Speaker 8 (01:17:49):
I mean it was.

Speaker 4 (01:17:50):
It was nasty what she was because she was so uncomfortable.

Speaker 6 (01:17:53):
So yes, she scratched it open, like the whole and
so it was like blood, you know, pus all this stuff.
So we have this vetinaryan come over and you know, dude,
I'm getting emotional and.

Speaker 8 (01:18:06):
I just looked at the girl.

Speaker 4 (01:18:07):
One point, I was like, so you just you go
around all these different families every day.

Speaker 8 (01:18:13):
Was like, you're just putting down dogs every day.

Speaker 3 (01:18:16):
I'm like, what kind of life is that?

Speaker 6 (01:18:19):
I'm like questioning this young woman who's like nice enough
to come down and euthanize our dog. And probably one
of the funnier moments was my mom walks in and
she's like, oh, I heard, I wanted to say goodbye whatever,
And then the vet starts feeding the dog chocolate and
she goes, oh, honey, you should do that kind of look.

Speaker 3 (01:18:40):
The vet looked at my mom like, let the dog
enjoy chocolate.

Speaker 6 (01:18:43):
If we're putting it, we're putting it down in twenty seconds, like,
let the dog enjoy it. But she's trying to like
reprimand this vetinary and you're supposed to feed dog's chocolate.
She like didn't really understand the process of what was happening.

Speaker 7 (01:18:56):
Oh man, that's this is a morbid uh secon that
was that's all right man, you know ga, the nerve
of you to stimulate this conversation, like listen, this is,
you know, all just because that man wanted to be
warm and one of these these cold market you know,
places to play.

Speaker 1 (01:19:15):
Where the hell was he at by the way, probably
an okay Z Yeah, I'd assume that was a home
the home game. I can't imagine he traveled with that.

Speaker 8 (01:19:24):
Yeah, and you did ask Lorraina did ask earlier?

Speaker 1 (01:19:27):
Hey, By the way, I've always wondered this. Back when
you guys were playing, was there a strict code about
what you had to wear to a game, to and from.

Speaker 8 (01:19:35):
A game depended on the coach.

Speaker 7 (01:19:36):
Yea coach would make that, like, but yeah, you had
to wear a suit and tie more often than not.
Some of them you could wear sweats.

Speaker 4 (01:19:45):
Walking suit, walking walking suits.

Speaker 8 (01:19:49):
Yeah, that's big. That was a big thing walking the
walking suit.

Speaker 6 (01:19:52):
Yeah, it's like it was like the biggest I mean,
there's so many things about the water. Do you have
a walking suit?

Speaker 7 (01:19:58):
Is Jonas, No, it's the it doesn't son have a
it's not a coat. It's like it's almost like a shirt.
Maybe it's like a button down long shirt that you
wear out. You don't see it looks like a suit coat,
but it's not.

Speaker 4 (01:20:10):
Yeah, yeah, it's like a shirt. It's more comfortable.

Speaker 8 (01:20:14):
And then the pants in the exact what.

Speaker 1 (01:20:16):
They're called walkers and the walking suit.

Speaker 4 (01:20:20):
And then and the pants are the exact same like
fabriin material cot it's.

Speaker 8 (01:20:23):
The same thing.

Speaker 6 (01:20:24):
It's like it's like one big piece of whatever material
it is is what these dudes would wear.

Speaker 4 (01:20:32):
And the funny thing is they they clothes their guys
be charged them like the exact same amount. Is basically
like what a suit is. He's like, now you're gonna
walk it suit, It's about the same price.

Speaker 7 (01:20:42):
Yeah, they got short sleeves, they got long sleeves. You
could turn it into short a short set. Like all right,
I gotta ask the questions, is this a black thor
white thing? I never saw many white guys were walking suits.
I was about to say it was a very stereotypical
outfit for or for pro pro athletes.

Speaker 8 (01:21:02):
Yeah. The year I was like, what is that? But
there was some cats that would tuck them in. They
would tuck the shirt in.

Speaker 4 (01:21:11):
Oh, I never saw anyone. They have them all with
some gators, and I was like, hell, yeah, that's a look.

Speaker 1 (01:21:19):
It's just so hell, I'm telling the truth here. I
googled walking suits for men and I went to images
and it's literally all black guys at entire page. Black guys.
That guy might be Puerto Rican, but I mean, you know,
we're splitting hairs here.

Speaker 8 (01:21:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:21:35):
I think it may have been one lineman that I
know that had one maybe two, but it.

Speaker 8 (01:21:41):
Was it was on our side. We claimed him. Yeah, probably, But.

Speaker 4 (01:21:48):
Here's the thing.

Speaker 6 (01:21:49):
Is for anyone who saw like or it was worn
a walking suit, you know, it is a thousand times
more comfortable than actually wearing a suit, or actually wearing
like dressed pants and a jack and a button up
and a belt and all that.

Speaker 8 (01:22:02):
And that was like the GID.

Speaker 4 (01:22:03):
I was like, damn, this shouldn't even that shouldn't even count,
Like these.

Speaker 6 (01:22:06):
Students are getting away with the dress code just because
they're wearing walking suits.

Speaker 8 (01:22:10):
But it was a thing.

Speaker 7 (01:22:11):
Man, I still they look comfortable. I don't know that
it's still a thing like long suits. Long suits were
in when I was in the league, and I know
that's not in anymore. Like I'm talking like down mid Digh.

Speaker 4 (01:22:27):
Did they do it for the draft kind of making
fun of it the other year?

Speaker 7 (01:22:31):
Yeah, it was like Lebron and Carmelo and all those guys.
Dwane Wade, I believe.

Speaker 4 (01:22:37):
I thought. I thought a recent class just did that
and they were making fun of that.

Speaker 8 (01:22:41):
I don't know, I don't know, but I look this up.
I feel like I saw pictures of like them.

Speaker 7 (01:22:46):
Suits is a trip though. Old school suits are a trip, man,
compared to nowadays. I remember Chris Weber had one. I
believe long like juke suits. Yeah, you know, like like
cab calloways know what.

Speaker 1 (01:23:00):
That's the way fashion works. It's going to come back
into style. Baggy, baggy, baggy.

Speaker 8 (01:23:04):
Jeans are coming back. I don't like it. I don't like.
I don't like the trending away from the tight super tight.
I don't like.

Speaker 6 (01:23:10):
I don't care what dudes wear. But yeah, I'm with
you on that, Like you go from yoga pants to
baggy jeans.

Speaker 4 (01:23:16):
I'm not with the ladies. You're working in the wrong direction.

Speaker 8 (01:23:19):
It's the wrong direction. It's weird. What's on stuff?

Speaker 4 (01:23:22):
Like that's your Nope?

Speaker 1 (01:23:23):
Do you hear that, Lorena? Yes, I heard, And actually
I have mixed feelings on it.

Speaker 8 (01:23:28):
Why.

Speaker 4 (01:23:29):
I get the comfort aspect of it, but like, are
yoga pants not comfortable?

Speaker 9 (01:23:32):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:23:32):
I love yoga pants.

Speaker 8 (01:23:33):
I wear my workout pants all the time. That should
be every day. But sometimes I see ladies who are
wearing yoga pants and I'm like, you don't even do yoga,
And I can tell oh damn.

Speaker 1 (01:23:44):
So you know, are good for people?

Speaker 7 (01:23:51):
Lorraine A Smith yoga pants shaming people? That's crazy because
she's skinny, that's wild. I can't stand when skinny people,
naturally skinny people make fun of us.

Speaker 2 (01:24:03):
It is fat.

Speaker 8 (01:24:04):
It is the wildest thing ever, the wildest thing ever.

Speaker 7 (01:24:08):
Man.

Speaker 8 (01:24:09):
It's a real struggle, man.

Speaker 1 (01:24:12):
All right, it's a real struggles all right.

Speaker 8 (01:24:14):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:24:15):
Have you ever tried to gain weight and not been
able to gain weight?

Speaker 8 (01:24:19):
It's not it's not a problem I deal with.

Speaker 13 (01:24:27):
Man.

Speaker 7 (01:24:27):
Man is fighting. My son is fighting to get three
more pounds on and keep the pounds on. Right now,
I said, son, there will come a time where the
Errington Jean kicks in. Do not fight to try to
gain weight. Just eat the way you're supposed to eat,

(01:24:51):
take your protein, do your workouts.

Speaker 8 (01:24:54):
That gene will kick in. You'll be all right. I
fight it every day. Now.

Speaker 7 (01:25:01):
Everybody out there listening, y'all think I'm doing a bit
right now, I'm not. I fight wait every day.

Speaker 8 (01:25:08):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (01:25:10):

Speaker 8 (01:25:12):
You need to stop this.

self value. I just don't understand why you guys like
I get it. I've I've learned to accept it.

Speaker 8 (01:25:24):
I fight.

Speaker 7 (01:25:25):
I fight it and and one day maybe potentially I'll win,
you know, I'll win against weight.

Speaker 3 (01:25:33):
You look great.

Speaker 5 (01:25:36):
I know.

Speaker 8 (01:25:36):
No, you're lying.

Speaker 1 (01:25:38):
No, it's not true. I taxidermy you.

Speaker 8 (01:25:40):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:25:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:25:41):
Tell Trish that I'll put a bit in for that.
That would be interesting, like like the Elephant Man Bones
for real.

Speaker 1 (01:25:53):
