(01:49):
today is? Yeah? What is today? It's a football Friday Friday?
Yeah yeah, yeah, Media Center Radio. As we get, it's
(02:16):
been a long way. I took the physical challenge last night.
How did that go? Yeah? Well, if you don't hear
much of me today, you'll know. Come on, what is
the physical challenge? Um? I stayed out and up. I
was up and I stayed out. Okay, yeah, against my
(02:37):
better judgment, I ventured out to Scottsdale. A lot going
on at Scottsdale. Some people call it old town Scottie. Yeah,
old town scott Well get you Scotty wag is it?
Was it busier than when we were out there on
on Monday? Hell yea yeah, like not more going on.
I saw Jamaar Chase that he came into the spot
(02:58):
we were in last night. You know, these new these
new school athletes. Man, they just different man's some different
people describe what that means just the way, like the
way you would see a dude from a different era move.
I just think, and you know what I think it
(03:19):
is because I'm friend. There is that fair to say? No, okay,
wasn't like that last No. No, it's not that they're
friendly or they're just there. I think they're more socially awkward. Actually,
well I get that because they look at their phone
if they get offer, they're like I said, look at
my phone, like they camp. It's like they would not
want to look Jonas in the eyes and shake his hand.
(03:39):
Who would want to say, Hi, how you doing? My
name is Jamar Chase Jonas now is great to meet you. Yeah,
they don't. People don't do that. They're not social. Yeah,
they're not sociable. But again I think it's video games.
I think it's it's sports culture. Like your friends with,
who you're friends with, they don't know, you know, one
thing that you realize they don't older players, you know
(04:01):
what I mean, Like a lot of new school athletes
only know like a certain like maybe a few years
before them. They don't really know. Like if you start
going into like the history and the animals of guys
that played, they don't know, right and and and crazy.
It's something like they care either, it's probably hard for
(04:22):
them to go find it because of the change in
like TV technology from older players like now. I mean, dude,
think about when when we played, Like when I go back,
but even when I go back and watch college, but
I'm like, dude, I was playing in the two thousand's
and it looks grainy, it looks it's hard to see
you fast forward to when HD turned over probably and
I think in twenty two thousand and like the film
(04:46):
looks completely done playing ball. Imagine that that's all I
was done playing ball by the time, and like if
you were on the sidelines, remember you get your your
your films, people say anything like see anything. It was
black and white pictures, but even then like that's how,
that's that's how. But and then always oh but even
(05:08):
but even when we would get them, like the quality
of them when I first got in the league or
like in college to win like later on the league,
it changed. It went from being like a Grammy like
all right, I'm pretty sure that guy that's so and
something pretty shut so and so at one point it
got like crystal clear and you could see even in
the black and white. And then then what the tablets,
(05:29):
which is entirely when did the tablets come around? How
long the tablets? Sports fourteen stuff like that. It was
the end of when I was playing with the tablets,
they were they calling him polaroids when they became color.
When when you got the color pictures on the summer
guy and I never got color color then to never
it was always the printer to print out well, I
mean he didn't need him to be He kind of
just need to see where guys like where are you aligned? Where? Yeah,
(05:53):
where they at? Where they go? Usually that was where
you get arguments about like you know, the old line,
are saying one thing and by the way, like the
old line, you know, so you come back like he
was the gap and they're like, no, he was the
peak cap and the rest of the yeah, he was
the peak gap. And you're like, okay, go look go
look at the team and come over and be like yeah, right,
you having your gloves you pointed the picture like what
(06:15):
I say, because you gotta like like like do to
speed books with him, like to try to get like
you know, like the video aspect of those books. Your
your gloves and he's sticking to the paper. It could
be a frustrating thing tried to study. Remember I forget
what coach it was. He used to blow his nose
(06:36):
into them when we're done with him. One team used
to take them. They'd all like put him in like
a like a thing. So we'd have like all of
the drives and they'd mark him and mark up on him.
Another guy us take him to blow his nose and
them and throw them away. That's a serious. Now, see
that's painful. That's a serious I couldn't do that. That
would that would bother me because you couldn't get it
all the way in. You know, youve got to clear
(06:57):
out that nostril. You're not getting every piece of as
you do out if you blow. You're not sure what
you mean by that, but you've got to be able
to like dig in there and like actually get it out.
It's more the theatrics of blowing your nose with it.
I think I didn't realize you're this big in to
blow your nose and listen. If you're gonna do it,
do it right? Are you like a Nettie pot guy?
I love Nettie Pott? What is Nettie Potty? What is Pott?
(07:23):
I don't what the hell you? Is it? Nettie Pott?
What is this? How do you spell it? Let me
look at this. I don't know. Figure it out, Nettie
pot Can we get you? Basically? Pour water with like, yeah, luke,
warm water, a little salt solution in it. It helps
clear now. It does clear you out to now, not
interested your nose for a little while. A little old school.
(07:46):
I'm looking at it right now, the stuff that comes
out of your nostrils when you do that. Sometimes though
I'm old school, NETI Pots about as old as it gets.
I think, that's been around for like hundres of years.
I mean, look at how dumb this is. You're playing
little tea pot in your nose so the stuff can
come out on the head. It comes out, though you
need a little netti pot in your life. No, I'm good.
(08:07):
It's like your squatty potty, but it's for your nose.
This one works. That definitely works. Work. You get enough
of a siginist like congestion, it'll get it up out
of there for you. I said, a data grows saying
she did every day, and I was like, man, that's
a little too much an unattractive nettie pot, Like that's
(08:27):
like an unattractive trait. That's like it's like it's like
a no enema. I don't I think when you mentioned
the word enema, like literally can only go in one way. Yeah,
it only goes in one way. But but if it
only goes comes out. But now you're right, I mean
(08:48):
it does come you would be there to get it
out up here. That's correct. It goes up, but it
comes down. But I mean there's still there's still the
concept is still the same. So so white Castle have
you all ever been to White Castle? Yes, okay, the
f Yeah, that's why all you frozen food. My dad
(09:10):
used to call him the down and Ounce. He's like,
if you ever get bound up, son, just go get
a white castle. I was like, what do you mean?
He goes, chops, he goes, just go grab a burger,
he goes. Ten minutes later, you keep you sitting on
the toilet. Yeah, but there's sliders though, right. Yeah, it's
like the opposite of what we're talking about. That is
there a white Castle? There's about white castles in Arizona?
(09:32):
Is there all that? I forgot? White Castle insider Jade
who was basically run the entire show here. She's like
a celebrity in the white Castle world? Is that true?
Is this for real? Come on? Yeah? It was inducted
(09:54):
in two thousand and sixteen into the class of Hall
of Fame of White Castle. Now I'm blown away right now. Yeah,
they flew me out to the to meet the family
and towards the serious. What do you have to do
to get in the whole of fame? You get the
right in essay, be a big craver. It's called the
Cravers Hall of Fame. Okay, where are they located? Where's
(10:16):
the family on the Columbus, Ohio? Okay, big anniversary was
this past year. They do have a dope. If it's
the facility, I think it is. Drive by it on
what is that six seventy. They've got a sweet headquarters.
It's amazing. Yeah, so you were inducted into the Running
(10:38):
to the Bathroom Restroom Hall of Fame. Well can you
see here in the Hall of Fame with Stanley and
Alice Cooper? No, yeah, I am. What do you mean
like the musician? Yeah? What Yeah? He has a booth
at the one here and like brancast around. Yeah, he
(11:02):
has the booth here in the Scottsdale one. Yeah, what
do you mean? He has a booth and it was
his birthday on Saturdays as Cooper? Yeah, is there a
booth in somewhere for you? I wish? No. I am
on the boxes for the White Castle Sliders, are you really?
There's ones with my name on it and my little
quote saying I had a slider mule because I had
(11:25):
a friend that lived in Alabama and he'd bring him
over the border to me whenever he'd go visit. Unbelievable.
This is this is this is like, this is the
equivalent of Lee, Like every time Lee tells us this
one came so far out of this is far out,
did not. I was inducted into the Hall of Fame
(11:46):
before LaVar was fair point. That is a fair point.
I'm from Butler, he's from Pittsburgh, and I beat him
to the Hall of Fame. Butler Pittsburgh, you said, yeah,
I thought she was seven. Yeah, you know, I'm a
(12:06):
four one tour. I thought Pittsburgh was on my I
didn't have Butler County on my castle. Hall of Pittsburgh.
You're on the box. Yeah, my name's on the box.
You can find my name on the box. That is
That's incredible. I did not know that. That's incredible. I'm
going box hunting. I'm gonna go online and try to
(12:27):
find what's what's the what's the deal with Alice Cooper?
How do you get in that hall fan same way
as I did? Were big cravers? Oh no, he's in
it su set completely misunderstood. But I thought you were
like the like an Alice Cooper Hall faw Man. How
many people are in the Hall of Fame. The induct
usually ten a year, So this is like like this,
(12:47):
I'm gonna get on this. I'm on the web, down
and outers, What do you think it would do to
my stomach? I wonder, I wonder if they have two
sliders in my socks and so you're just out. You're
not down, j You're just out. Do they have craving
conventions for all the Hall of famers to come together?
And now we're all on our website with our story.
You can see my picture on the website. Shake, will
(13:08):
you attest to the down and out of that? It
doesn't bother me like that, So I guess maybe that's
what makes me a real craver. Wow, Okay, I just
think the adjective is so disturbing to me. I mean
craver when you add the er to the and it
just up to the stakes of the word. You know,
before I leave, I'm picking up a crave case. It's
a crave box. I'm sorry, it's a hundred spiders that
(13:30):
I'll be taking home with me on the airplane. That
is a sorry, excuse me, it's a crave crate. I
apologize to crazy. How are you taking on the airplane?
Eight spiders will fill fit into a gallon bag so
I can put them in a carry on that way.
I'll be honest with you, that is definitely Hall of
Fame worthy. You're taking a hundred slaughters with you on
(13:52):
a plane. My family loves it, and you can't get
it anywhere close to Williamsburg, Virginia. So I'm taking them
home with me. For all the things that you guys
have brought up during the course of a segment, for you,
you to land on a topic where we could get
this type of story from j This is the best
interview that's actually true. I mean that's true. This is
(14:15):
the most intriguing content that I've been a part of,
no doubt about it. I had no idea man who
knew that we were going down that right away, blown
away crate. I just kept trying to picture the rest
of the plane. When you break that, I think I
can share them on the plane. I'll share them with
(14:37):
my family when I get home. I feel like I
need to look this up on an adult website, Cravers
Triplets dot com. I'm gonna go claim that website. Oh man,
that is unbelievable. Well, fans only Cravers another Hall of
Famer in the house. That's that's fantastic. Until until I
(15:01):
see a ring, though, I'm I'm gonna tap this skeptical.
That's that's all I'm gonna say. I mean, I don't
need a ring to prove my status. Jade. Now, if
people think that you're lying that are listening, they can
find your first and last name on there. So do
you care if we give out selling ko z u

(17:53):
for the Hall of Fame class that was announced last night,
the class of three in the NFL. Zach Thomas well
Overdue has been on the ballot for a long time.
He's been one of the names that people have thrown
out there. He put his stats next to some other
linebackers in the game, like a Brian or Lacker, and
nobody could figure out why Zach Thomas hadn't gotten the call.
Yet he gets the call. DeMarcus Ware, Joe Thomas, your
(18:17):
former team when Ron Day, Barber, Darrell Reeves, Air Corriel,
Don Corriel was in h Yeah, Chuck Cowley and then
Ken Riley and Joe Cleco. So the Hall of Fame
class of three announced, and I would say a majority
of those not surprising but happy to see that they're
(18:39):
finally getting the call, especially a guy like Zach Thomas
who is now in the Hall of Fame. Yeah, I
mean for whatever reason, you know, someone like Zach who
you know wasn't able to win a Super Bowl, right,
it's you know, the stats aren't enough, even though when
and you talked about anyone who played against them, how
they went about and prepared for that game the entire
(19:00):
a week. You know, there was a guy wearing a
thing on his helmet or a jersey because he was
Zach Thomas. Wherever Zach why you had had a body
on him. He had to have someone on him. In
the run blocking game, you know, past protection quarterbacks was
kind of where where he's dropping to um for me,
that like it's always you know, did did that player
make you change how you played the game? And was
he one of the best best position during his career
(19:22):
And he was. So it's unfortunate that a lot of
times we loop in the success of the team into
an individual players accolades and whether or not they should
you end up being Hall of Fame worthy. But happy
for all these guys in particular, Joe Thomas Um obviously
got drafted the same year together. Um. You know, he
was one of those guys that from day one, he
(19:44):
just I mean technically he was so sound, he was
so mature. Never never felt like there was ever a
matchup a week anything that was like overwhelming or too much.
I mean from the day he stepped in there, who's
the blindside left tackle? Um? And he was just he
was just special and you kind of you kind of
knew it. Um. He was just so special, so consistent,
so steady for his entire career. Yeah, I mean, I
(20:07):
wish good luck, a happy well wish to all of
them getting in Um. Obviously, Durrell Reeves is one of
the homies from Quippa. So so we've added another one
to the list of Western p ares that have have
Gon in um the Marcus Ware. It's a great name.
It's a great name to go on to uh this class.
(20:29):
Uh obviously, Don Corriel, we were just talking about this
off offline, not not on the air. Well no, no,
we actually we're talking about it on the air. I
don't know how we got the White Castle, but we
were talking about on the air, just young guys not
knowing the past, you know, and if you know the
past and you're a fan of the game, you know
about those offenses and the schemes that were created by
(20:52):
Don Corriel and and how it led to you know,
the West Coast offense, West Coast style of offense and
and different things like that. It was its own offense.
I mean, it literally became to three digit system. Like
a lot of people didn't realize that, but you know,
when you they were trying to figure out a way
of simplifying offense. So everyone kind of knew it on
the West Coast, and so you get these different juchos
(21:14):
community colleges where where players are kind of coming and out,
and it ended up being a digit system. So every
single route you had attached to a number, and so
you know, for example, your inbreaking routes were even your
outbreaking routes were odd. Uh, you know your your post
was an eight, you know, curl or in depending on
how you did it was a four or six. So
all that we did that in high school. So that
(21:36):
all came from Don Coryell. He he was he was
And that's that's another one. You look at it and
go his impact on football was so immense at multiple levels.
It should have never taken this long. It will be.
It's the same thing we talked about when Mike Leach passed.
His impact of football at multiple levels is you know,
football is not where it's at and without people like
(21:58):
Don Corriell and people Mike Leach. And I don't I
don't know why these Hall of Fame committees have to
have this criteria they're gonned to get to. It's like,
what was their impact? Did they change the game? They did?
Drell Reevas, he changed the way you played. Every time
you play, you want to throw to Drell sounds like
you gotta get you want to get something off your chest.
I mean, it was an interesting list a finalists and
(22:19):
and I will say there were a few finalists that
you know, you could probably say what it is that
you say I would. I would venture to say, hold on,
I gotta I gotta look up. Did you already see
like Adam Schefter's tweet about next year, like who's eligible? No,
but I would. I would also add to getting into
(22:40):
the Hall of Fame, it's that greatness and that dominance
for an extended amount of time to like, it can't
just be a short burst, like you gotta show that
you've been dominant for for a period of time. Let
me ask you this, does it Does it piss you
off that a guy like Don Koyelle or Zach Thomas
(23:02):
just sort of kind of fade away, Like everyone's so
focused on the now and they don't realize how you
got to the now and all the great players that
came before you instand. Guys like that you look at
and you go, well, yeah, why did it take so long?
It's it's kind of disrespectful if you think about it.
I mean, if you're looking at Hall of Fame classes
and you're looking at guys that still haven't gotten in,
(23:23):
Like I'll continue every every single time we I'm able
to have a conversation that goes down this lane. There's
a couple of names that that immediately pop up to me,
and and as to why are they not in the
Hall of Fame? And Fred Taylor continues to be the
number one name that comes to mind talking about all
(23:47):
the things that that Brady just said. How you prepare
for this guy? What are you going to do to
try to contain him? Because you're not going to stop him.
You know, the the records, you know, like the things
that he's done. Um, I think that that one is
is really really egregiously bad to me. And the other
one is Brian Mitchell. Like everyone is sitting here and
(24:10):
and God, God bless I think Devin Hester will get
into the Hall of Fame at and he should get in.
And his numbers are they pale in comparison to Brian
Mitchell's statistic line across all categories and in special teams,
And and I just don't understand why Brian Mitchell doesn't
(24:32):
get the call to go into the Hall of Fame.
I mean, it's like almost like the whole Harry Carson
deal or how long it took for Art Monk to
get in. I just I think sometimes when you when
you make certain selections and and they get in, it
just it raises the level of of head scratching when
(24:54):
you see certain guys that you know, I'm not even
gonna say more deserving. I'm just gonna say, you know,
by now it's past due that they're deserving of the
honor that they should should receive. So here's the guys
who have Schefter tweeted out up for next year's twenty
tweet Hall of Fame class, Joyce Peppers and Tonio Gates,
Eric Berry, Brendan Marshall, Hellodi Nada, Jamal Charles, Doug Baldwin,
(25:19):
Jordy Nelson, Connor Barwin, Sebastian Janikowski, Kyle Williams, and Andrew Luck. Yeah,
I had better careers than people at home. Can't see
the face shown us? Just me, but really, Adam Schefter
tweeted that I'm like, was there like an agent involved
(25:44):
in some of those are the names? Huh? Like I
didn't know. I didn't realize, Adam Schefter tweet, I didn't
realize Andrew Luck has been gone for five years, like
I had. I had no idea had been that long.
I mean, okay, like that's where we're at. I guess
it's I don't know, man, I mean, I know that
there's a certain limit they're allowed to put in, and
(26:05):
I get all that. It's just I've never understood why
a guy is a Hall of Famer but only after
a certain number of years that he's up for the
Hall of Fame. What did he play a games on
the side and between the time he retired and then
that got him over the hill? I just that's never
made sense. I talked to a voter and we had
a conversation because you know, we had talked about our
(26:27):
guy Josie, and he goes, do you think he'll he'll
get in? We just had a private conversation. I'm not
saying who he is, but he goes. It was interesting
being in the room because they're very particular about first
time um guys in the ballot and making it in.
I'm gonna go, well, what's the case against Joe Thomas?
Because someone asked me to go make your case where
Joe Thomas getting in the Hall of Fame? I go,
(26:48):
what's the case from not? I go, I go, try
to point out one reason why he should get in.
And then and I go, I think that's your case.
There is no argument to be made. I go, that's
the easiest thing. Durell Reeve's the same thing, by what's
the case against him? Same thing, like you don't have
a case. So we got into talking about it because
you'd be surprised he was in that room. There's a
(27:09):
lot of people who do not want to have a
lot of guys who were first about the Hall of
Famers get in because they like guys who've been waiting
to have their opportunity for christ I know, I know.
It's it's like want we need to politicize the Hall
of Fame of of NFL. It's like pretty simple. You
know what sucks when a guy finally gets in and
it's after he passed away, that's what sucks. And they're
(27:31):
playing with people's legacies like they would like to see.
They're playing with like Connor Barwins or Doug Baldwin's have
been on how the Solar just you know, you never know.
There's a lot going on there. And I didn't really
Doug Baldwin have been retired five years either, interesting, but
it was he undrafted Doug Baldwin. Uh. I think he
might have been a reason late round PICKMN Stanford right
(27:53):
Stafford here he might have been undrafted well, there it is.

Will get into that for you, but for all the
latest from around the world of sports. Mean you talk
about Hall of Famers, white Castle, NFL hockey, you name it,
(28:38):
it's ed been Garcia. I've never had white Castle before,
I believe it or not, you never had white Castle.
I have it all right? Good, I'm not alone. I
think you're my choice though. Yeah, I I would definitely, uh,
I would definitely give it a try if we had
it around here. But that should be a legal offense. Like,
you should be arrested anything, can you? Okay? So if
(28:59):
are they it there, should be arrested, not me, because
for a lot of things. So they're all sliders, So
how do you order them? Like a pack of four,
pack of sick? Pack eight is a pack eight? It's
called a stack, snack sack, sack sack, she said, sack LaVar.
(29:23):
Like if they were here, I'd be enjoying it. But
we don't have them around here because the in and
out you know it's good? Yeah, yeah, absolutely? What was
it called again? It's a sack. It's a sack of sliders.
Had many sacks and a crape crape leavar with leap
(29:47):
to get those sacks. White castles, just onions, right, there's
nothing else on it. Back on onions, pickles. Catch up.
You can get them with mustard. They also have chicken sliders.
Oh that's new. They serve breakfast as well. It's some
Belgian waffles with chicken in between. Did they do do
(30:07):
they do buffalo chicken? No? How did do buffalo chicken?
I mean in the morning, if they wanted out their game,
they were in the morning. I mean, I'm just saying
they have chicken rings. Too much like onion rings. But
it's chicken. I can't do that. Chicken doesn't come in
that form. I can't believe we've started making chicken the
forms it doesn't come in. That's that's the third time.

do lap the lap. That's right, guys. In case you
missed we might have a little bit of a scandal
on our hands. Arizona Republic picked up on the story
(35:07):
an investigation into the Walter Payton Man of the Years
past twenty six of them actually um narrowed in on
Russell Wilson and Sierra's charity called what was it called?
It is called the Not Why Not You? Foundation? Claiming
that because of their tax forms, they might have only
been donating twenty four cents of every dollar UH two
(35:28):
went to the charities UH just described in their charity
during the COVID years of one. Their director has since
come out since this report claiming that more than seventy
cents of every dollar goes to these charities, racking up
more than ten million dollars. Difference between twenty four and
sea that's still buttent. Is still very high of amount
(35:51):
to not put towards the donation, Isn't it more like
it depends upon your charitable mission. They'd like you to
stay within like ENTR, so like that should be going
towards the charitable mission. Seventy is still for them to
say seventy that's still a long ways away from what
(36:15):
it's supposed to be. Anybody had a worse twelve months
than Russell Wilson from a PR standpoint. I mean not
to not to like throw other charities under the bus,
but um wounded Warriors got in trouble for this. I
heard about that because they were they were spending a
ton of money on marketing and I think administrative costs.
(36:36):
People lost jobs, right, Yeah, they kind of had to
at that point. But they realized like they were spending
so much on marketing, wasn't necessarily going to the veterans
that needed to Oh my god, that's a well. I mean, listen,
know it's tough to the COVID heere because like I,
I don't know what is what they do? What does
the charity do? Lee, I haven't here, um while I look,
(37:01):
While I look that up, they did say that a
lot of these events were canceled year, like that might
make some sense. Actually, they fight pediatric cancer, eliminate food insecurity,
and provide education for children in undeserved communities. I mean,
so you're probably not able to go visit kids who
are under cancer during COVID when everything's shut down, lockdown
(37:22):
and the even events and I don't know from running
the Foundation for Veterans, our stuff got locked out. We
have we had one event. They ain't come back. I
mean literally, like the family we worked with, they're like, yep,
I'm not doing a big group gatherings ever. Again, I
just say, the first thing forensically I would do if
I was in a scenario where I was investigating that
large of a percentage discrepancy is what are the paychecks
(37:44):
and how many UM employees do you have? And what
are they doing? What iss what you're saying somebody eating somebody?
Well somebody you know, I mean they get they get
an office to or no. Hell yeah, yeah, I've seen
I've seen some charity UM homes before, Like wait, this
(38:07):
is a charitable Like this was purchased through a charity.
Like I've seen these things before. There's some big money
out there. I'll tell you that. Well. I've also helped
with like habits at Like I remember we went with
while the Chiefs. We went to Joplin to help rebuild
homes and my dad's a homebuilder, so I got I
grew up being around like framing and foundations and all that. Man,
(38:29):
we put that thing up so quick. I was like,
I'm glad they get a new home, but that's probably
not gonna last, like I felt, I mean like that
was my first thought was, like, this thing is not
going to withstand of another storm comes through, a tornado
comes from That's the first thought. Now it does bring
up a greater point though, when I get fined ten
dollars for being quote unquote passing aggressive, much of that
(38:52):
donation you can take three dollars of that that ten
dollars and pay yourself, so pay somebody. So so only
of that ten dollars, So that's not what that's not
that much is not supposed to come out the point
that that's being made. So does this mean that I
can also give like two dollars and forty cents? Not,
(39:14):
because that's still that's still a little that's still a
little you you would have to give like like a dollar,
not like you know, nineties cents cents. I mean what
you're if you're basing it off of what what what
we're talking about? I mean, I mean that could work.
I mean, that would save me a lot of money.
Right now, I'll talk to some people. What else we got, late, guys?
(39:38):
This one, uh came across the line. Calgary Flames defenseman
russmas Anderson was hit by a car while writing on
a scooter downtown Detroit the other night. Thanky, he's okay,
but listen day to day on the injury report, how
cold is it in Detroit right now? You run a
scooter outside? You know it's February. It's have you freezing?
(39:58):
Let me tell you something? Was he ripped ley? They
say no alcohol was was deemed uh part of the
no indication of any alcohol and might have added on
these people on scooters are a nuisance. Okay, that's all
I'm gonna say, Lee, Yes is your time? Go ahead.
I was riding around downtown Phoenix last night yesterday on
the scooter. I was running through, running through lights all
(40:21):
day exactly. Well, the roads were all well blocked off,
so why not my my driver almost hit uh, a
scooter driver. It's weird to me, Like I just I
wish we could follow Lee show ends someone gets a camera,
they follow Lee wherever he goes. He was trying to
get one this morning to come in and he's like,
oh man, there's a they do last call on the scooters.
(40:43):
I was like, yeah, they don't want trunks right right,
bumping into it, almost like hitting a train. Who wants
to ride those things? You get hit by my car
hit myself, And I was like, lead us, he's gonna
do that. He's going to do it. He's really gonna
he's really going to do it. He is really good.
The outlawed them, and in where I live, they outlawed.
They're really going to do it too, because people they
(41:04):
don't wear helmets, and we had a couple of people
like cracked their head open because they were drunk and fell.
I won't do it in l A, but here's a
good time. Yeah, that's the bad idea. Li

(01:49):
today is? Yeah? What is today? It's a football Friday Friday?
Yeah yeah, yeah, Media Center Radio. As we get, it's
(02:16):
been a long way. I took the physical challenge last night.
How did that go? Yeah? Well, if you don't hear
much of me today, you'll know. Come on, what is
the physical challenge? Um? I stayed out and up. I
was up and I stayed out. Okay, yeah, against my
(02:37):
better judgment, I ventured out to Scottsdale. A lot going
on at Scottsdale. Some people call it old town Scottie. Yeah,
old town scott Well get you Scotty wag is it?
Was it busier than when we were out there on
on Monday? Hell yea yeah, like not more going on.
I saw Jamaar Chase that he came into the spot
(02:58):
we were in last night. You know, these new these
new school athletes. Man, they just different man's some different
people describe what that means just the way, like the
way you would see a dude from a different era move.
I just think, and you know what I think it
(03:19):
is because I'm friend. There is that fair to say? No, okay,
wasn't like that last No. No, it's not that they're
friendly or they're just there. I think they're more socially awkward. Actually,
well I get that because they look at their phone
if they get offer, they're like I said, look at
my phone, like they camp. It's like they would not
want to look Jonas in the eyes and shake his hand.
(03:39):
Who would want to say, Hi, how you doing? My
name is Jamar Chase Jonas now is great to meet you. Yeah,
they don't. People don't do that. They're not social. Yeah,
they're not sociable. But again I think it's video games.
I think it's it's sports culture. Like your friends with,
who you're friends with, they don't know, you know, one
thing that you realize they don't older players, you know
(04:01):
what I mean, Like a lot of new school athletes
only know like a certain like maybe a few years
before them. They don't really know. Like if you start
going into like the history and the animals of guys
that played, they don't know, right and and and crazy.
It's something like they care either, it's probably hard for
(04:22):
them to go find it because of the change in
like TV technology from older players like now. I mean, dude,
think about when when we played, Like when I go back,
but even when I go back and watch college, but
I'm like, dude, I was playing in the two thousand's
and it looks grainy, it looks it's hard to see
you fast forward to when HD turned over probably and
I think in twenty two thousand and like the film
(04:46):
looks completely done playing ball. Imagine that that's all I
was done playing ball by the time, and like if
you were on the sidelines, remember you get your your
your films, people say anything like see anything. It was
black and white pictures, but even then like that's how,
that's that's how. But and then always oh but even
(05:08):
but even when we would get them, like the quality
of them when I first got in the league or
like in college to win like later on the league,
it changed. It went from being like a Grammy like
all right, I'm pretty sure that guy that's so and
something pretty shut so and so at one point it
got like crystal clear and you could see even in
the black and white. And then then what the tablets,
(05:29):
which is entirely when did the tablets come around? How
long the tablets? Sports fourteen stuff like that. It was
the end of when I was playing with the tablets,
they were they calling him polaroids when they became color.
When when you got the color pictures on the summer
guy and I never got color color then to never
it was always the printer to print out well, I
mean he didn't need him to be He kind of
just need to see where guys like where are you aligned? Where? Yeah,
(05:53):
where they at? Where they go? Usually that was where
you get arguments about like you know, the old line,
are saying one thing and by the way, like the
old line, you know, so you come back like he
was the gap and they're like, no, he was the
peak cap and the rest of the yeah, he was
the peak gap. And you're like, okay, go look go
look at the team and come over and be like yeah, right,
you having your gloves you pointed the picture like what
(06:15):
I say, because you gotta like like like do to
speed books with him, like to try to get like
you know, like the video aspect of those books. Your
your gloves and he's sticking to the paper. It could
be a frustrating thing tried to study. Remember I forget
what coach it was. He used to blow his nose
(06:36):
into them when we're done with him. One team used
to take them. They'd all like put him in like
a like a thing. So we'd have like all of
the drives and they'd mark him and mark up on him.
Another guy us take him to blow his nose and
them and throw them away. That's a serious. Now, see
that's painful. That's a serious I couldn't do that. That
would that would bother me because you couldn't get it
all the way in. You know, youve got to clear
(06:57):
out that nostril. You're not getting every piece of as
you do out if you blow. You're not sure what
you mean by that, but you've got to be able
to like dig in there and like actually get it out.
It's more the theatrics of blowing your nose with it.
I think I didn't realize you're this big in to
blow your nose and listen. If you're gonna do it,
do it right? Are you like a Nettie pot guy?
I love Nettie Pott? What is Nettie Potty? What is Pott?
(07:23):
I don't what the hell you? Is it? Nettie Pott?
What is this? How do you spell it? Let me
look at this. I don't know. Figure it out, Nettie
pot Can we get you? Basically? Pour water with like, yeah, luke,
warm water, a little salt solution in it. It helps
clear now. It does clear you out to now, not
interested your nose for a little while. A little old school.
(07:46):
I'm looking at it right now, the stuff that comes
out of your nostrils when you do that. Sometimes though
I'm old school, NETI Pots about as old as it gets.
I think, that's been around for like hundres of years.
I mean, look at how dumb this is. You're playing
little tea pot in your nose so the stuff can
come out on the head. It comes out, though you
need a little netti pot in your life. No, I'm good.
(08:07):
It's like your squatty potty, but it's for your nose.
This one works. That definitely works. Work. You get enough
of a siginist like congestion, it'll get it up out
of there for you. I said, a data grows saying
she did every day, and I was like, man, that's
a little too much an unattractive nettie pot, Like that's
(08:27):
like an unattractive trait. That's like it's like it's like
a no enema. I don't I think when you mentioned
the word enema, like literally can only go in one way. Yeah,
it only goes in one way. But but if it
only goes comes out. But now you're right, I mean
(08:48):
it does come you would be there to get it
out up here. That's correct. It goes up, but it
comes down. But I mean there's still there's still the
concept is still the same. So so white Castle have
you all ever been to White Castle? Yes, okay, the
f Yeah, that's why all you frozen food. My dad
(09:10):
used to call him the down and Ounce. He's like,
if you ever get bound up, son, just go get
a white castle. I was like, what do you mean?
He goes, chops, he goes, just go grab a burger,
he goes. Ten minutes later, you keep you sitting on
the toilet. Yeah, but there's sliders though, right. Yeah, it's
like the opposite of what we're talking about. That is
there a white Castle? There's about white castles in Arizona?
(09:32):
Is there all that? I forgot? White Castle insider Jade
who was basically run the entire show here. She's like
a celebrity in the white Castle world? Is that true?
Is this for real? Come on? Yeah? It was inducted
(09:54):
in two thousand and sixteen into the class of Hall
of Fame of White Castle. Now I'm blown away right now. Yeah,
they flew me out to the to meet the family
and towards the serious. What do you have to do
to get in the whole of fame? You get the
right in essay, be a big craver. It's called the
Cravers Hall of Fame. Okay, where are they located? Where's
(10:16):
the family on the Columbus, Ohio? Okay, big anniversary was
this past year. They do have a dope. If it's
the facility, I think it is. Drive by it on
what is that six seventy. They've got a sweet headquarters.
It's amazing. Yeah, so you were inducted into the Running
(10:38):
to the Bathroom Restroom Hall of Fame. Well can you
see here in the Hall of Fame with Stanley and
Alice Cooper? No, yeah, I am. What do you mean
like the musician? Yeah? What Yeah? He has a booth
at the one here and like brancast around. Yeah, he
(11:02):
has the booth here in the Scottsdale one. Yeah, what
do you mean? He has a booth and it was
his birthday on Saturdays as Cooper? Yeah, is there a
booth in somewhere for you? I wish? No. I am
on the boxes for the White Castle Sliders, are you really?
There's ones with my name on it and my little
quote saying I had a slider mule because I had
(11:25):
a friend that lived in Alabama and he'd bring him
over the border to me whenever he'd go visit. Unbelievable.
This is this is this is like, this is the
equivalent of Lee, Like every time Lee tells us this
one came so far out of this is far out,
did not. I was inducted into the Hall of Fame
(11:46):
before LaVar was fair point. That is a fair point.
I'm from Butler, he's from Pittsburgh, and I beat him
to the Hall of Fame. Butler Pittsburgh, you said, yeah,
I thought she was seven. Yeah, you know, I'm a
(12:06):
four one tour. I thought Pittsburgh was on my I
didn't have Butler County on my castle. Hall of Pittsburgh.
You're on the box. Yeah, my name's on the box.
You can find my name on the box. That is
That's incredible. I did not know that. That's incredible. I'm
going box hunting. I'm gonna go online and try to
(12:27):
find what's what's the what's the deal with Alice Cooper?
How do you get in that hall fan same way
as I did? Were big cravers? Oh no, he's in
it su set completely misunderstood. But I thought you were
like the like an Alice Cooper Hall faw Man. How
many people are in the Hall of Fame. The induct
usually ten a year, So this is like like this,
(12:47):
I'm gonna get on this. I'm on the web, down
and outers, What do you think it would do to
my stomach? I wonder, I wonder if they have two
sliders in my socks and so you're just out. You're
not down, j You're just out. Do they have craving
conventions for all the Hall of famers to come together?
And now we're all on our website with our story.
You can see my picture on the website. Shake, will
(13:08):
you attest to the down and out of that? It
doesn't bother me like that, So I guess maybe that's
what makes me a real craver. Wow, Okay, I just
think the adjective is so disturbing to me. I mean
craver when you add the er to the and it
just up to the stakes of the word. You know,
before I leave, I'm picking up a crave case. It's
a crave box. I'm sorry, it's a hundred spiders that
(13:30):
I'll be taking home with me on the airplane. That
is a sorry, excuse me, it's a crave crate. I
apologize to crazy. How are you taking on the airplane?
Eight spiders will fill fit into a gallon bag so
I can put them in a carry on that way.
I'll be honest with you, that is definitely Hall of
Fame worthy. You're taking a hundred slaughters with you on
(13:52):
a plane. My family loves it, and you can't get
it anywhere close to Williamsburg, Virginia. So I'm taking them
home with me. For all the things that you guys
have brought up during the course of a segment, for you,
you to land on a topic where we could get
this type of story from j This is the best
interview that's actually true. I mean that's true. This is
(14:15):
the most intriguing content that I've been a part of,
no doubt about it. I had no idea man who
knew that we were going down that right away, blown
away crate. I just kept trying to picture the rest
of the plane. When you break that, I think I
can share them on the plane. I'll share them with
(14:37):
my family when I get home. I feel like I
need to look this up on an adult website, Cravers
Triplets dot com. I'm gonna go claim that website. Oh man,

Famer in the house. That's that's fantastic. Until until I

(17:53):
for the Hall of Fame class that was announced last night,
the class of three in the NFL. Zach Thomas well
Overdue has been on the ballot for a long time.
He's been one of the names that people have thrown
out there. He put his stats next to some other
linebackers in the game, like a Brian or Lacker, and
nobody could figure out why Zach Thomas hadn't gotten the call.
Yet he gets the call. DeMarcus Ware, Joe Thomas, your
(18:17):
former team when Ron Day, Barber, Darrell Reeves, Air Corriel,
Don Corriel was in h Yeah, Chuck Cowley and then
Ken Riley and Joe Cleco. So the Hall of Fame
class of three announced, and I would say a majority
of those not surprising but happy to see that they're
(18:39):
finally getting the call, especially a guy like Zach Thomas
who is now in the Hall of Fame. Yeah, I
mean for whatever reason, you know, someone like Zach who
you know wasn't able to win a Super Bowl, right,
it's you know, the stats aren't enough, even though when
and you talked about anyone who played against them, how
they went about and prepared for that game the entire
(19:00):
a week. You know, there was a guy wearing a
thing on his helmet or a jersey because he was
Zach Thomas. Wherever Zach why you had had a body
on him. He had to have someone on him. In
the run blocking game, you know, past protection quarterbacks was
kind of where where he's dropping to um for me,
that like it's always you know, did did that player
make you change how you played the game? And was
he one of the best best position during his career
(19:22):
And he was. So it's unfortunate that a lot of
times we loop in the success of the team into
an individual players accolades and whether or not they should
you end up being Hall of Fame worthy. But happy
for all these guys in particular, Joe Thomas Um obviously
got drafted the same year together. Um. You know, he
was one of those guys that from day one, he
(19:44):
just I mean technically he was so sound, he was
so mature. Never never felt like there was ever a
matchup a week anything that was like overwhelming or too much.
I mean from the day he stepped in there, who's
the blindside left tackle? Um? And he was just he
was just special and you kind of you kind of
knew it. Um. He was just so special, so consistent,
so steady for his entire career. Yeah, I mean, I
(20:07):
wish good luck, a happy well wish to all of
them getting in Um. Obviously, Durrell Reeves is one of
the homies from Quippa. So so we've added another one
to the list of Western p ares that have have
Gon in um the Marcus Ware. It's a great name.
It's a great name to go on to uh this class.
(20:29):
Uh obviously, Don Corriel, we were just talking about this
off offline, not not on the air. Well no, no,
we actually we're talking about it on the air. I
don't know how we got the White Castle, but we
were talking about on the air, just young guys not
knowing the past, you know, and if you know the
past and you're a fan of the game, you know
about those offenses and the schemes that were created by
(20:52):
Don Corriel and and how it led to you know,
the West Coast offense, West Coast style of offense and
and different things like that. It was its own offense.
I mean, it literally became to three digit system. Like
a lot of people didn't realize that, but you know,
when you they were trying to figure out a way
of simplifying offense. So everyone kind of knew it on
the West Coast, and so you get these different juchos
(21:14):
community colleges where where players are kind of coming and out,
and it ended up being a digit system. So every
single route you had attached to a number, and so
you know, for example, your inbreaking routes were even your
outbreaking routes were odd. Uh, you know your your post
was an eight, you know, curl or in depending on
how you did it was a four or six. So
all that we did that in high school. So that
(21:36):
all came from Don Coryell. He he was he was
And that's that's another one. You look at it and
go his impact on football was so immense at multiple levels.
It should have never taken this long. It will be.
It's the same thing we talked about when Mike Leach passed.
His impact of football at multiple levels is you know,
football is not where it's at and without people like
(21:58):
Don Corriell and people Mike Leach. And I don't I
don't know why these Hall of Fame committees have to
have this criteria they're gonned to get to. It's like,
what was their impact? Did they change the game? They did?
Drell Reevas, he changed the way you played. Every time
you play, you want to throw to Drell sounds like
you gotta get you want to get something off your chest.
I mean, it was an interesting list a finalists and
(22:19):
and I will say there were a few finalists that
you know, you could probably say what it is that
you say I would. I would venture to say, hold on,
I gotta I gotta look up. Did you already see
like Adam Schefter's tweet about next year, like who's eligible? No,
but I would. I would also add to getting into
(22:40):
the Hall of Fame, it's that greatness and that dominance
for an extended amount of time to like, it can't
just be a short burst, like you gotta show that
you've been dominant for for a period of time. Let
me ask you this, does it Does it piss you
off that a guy like Don Koyelle or Zach Thomas
(23:02):
just sort of kind of fade away, Like everyone's so
focused on the now and they don't realize how you
got to the now and all the great players that
came before you instand. Guys like that you look at
and you go, well, yeah, why did it take so long?
It's it's kind of disrespectful if you think about it.
I mean, if you're looking at Hall of Fame classes
and you're looking at guys that still haven't gotten in,
(23:23):
Like I'll continue every every single time we I'm able
to have a conversation that goes down this lane. There's
a couple of names that that immediately pop up to me,
and and as to why are they not in the
Hall of Fame? And Fred Taylor continues to be the
number one name that comes to mind talking about all
(23:47):
the things that that Brady just said. How you prepare
for this guy? What are you going to do to
try to contain him? Because you're not going to stop him.
You know, the the records, you know, like the things
that he's done. Um, I think that that one is
is really really egregiously bad to me. And the other
one is Brian Mitchell. Like everyone is sitting here and
(24:10):
and God, God bless I think Devin Hester will get
into the Hall of Fame at and he should get in.
And his numbers are they pale in comparison to Brian
Mitchell's statistic line across all categories and in special teams,
And and I just don't understand why Brian Mitchell doesn't
(24:32):
get the call to go into the Hall of Fame.
I mean, it's like almost like the whole Harry Carson
deal or how long it took for Art Monk to
get in. I just I think sometimes when you when
you make certain selections and and they get in, it
just it raises the level of of head scratching when
(24:54):
you see certain guys that you know, I'm not even
gonna say more deserving. I'm just gonna say, you know,
by now it's past due that they're deserving of the
honor that they should should receive. So here's the guys
who have Schefter tweeted out up for next year's twenty
tweet Hall of Fame class, Joyce Peppers and Tonio Gates,
Eric Berry, Brendan Marshall, Hellodi Nada, Jamal Charles, Doug Baldwin,
(25:19):
Jordy Nelson, Connor Barwin, Sebastian Janikowski, Kyle Williams, and Andrew Luck. Yeah,
I had better careers than people at home. Can't see
the face shown us? Just me, but really, Adam Schefter
tweeted that I'm like, was there like an agent involved
(25:44):
in some of those are the names? Huh? Like I
didn't know. I didn't realize, Adam Schefter tweet, I didn't
realize Andrew Luck has been gone for five years, like
I had. I had no idea had been that long.
I mean, okay, like that's where we're at. I guess
it's I don't know, man, I mean, I know that
there's a certain limit they're allowed to put in, and
(26:05):
I get all that. It's just I've never understood why
a guy is a Hall of Famer but only after
a certain number of years that he's up for the
Hall of Fame. What did he play a games on
the side and between the time he retired and then
that got him over the hill? I just that's never
made sense. I talked to a voter and we had
a conversation because you know, we had talked about our
(26:27):
guy Josie, and he goes, do you think he'll he'll
get in? We just had a private conversation. I'm not
saying who he is, but he goes. It was interesting
being in the room because they're very particular about first
time um guys in the ballot and making it in.
I'm gonna go, well, what's the case against Joe Thomas?
Because someone asked me to go make your case where
Joe Thomas getting in the Hall of Fame? I go,
(26:48):
what's the case from not? I go, I go, try
to point out one reason why he should get in.
And then and I go, I think that's your case.
There is no argument to be made. I go, that's
the easiest thing. Durell Reeve's the same thing, by what's
the case against him? Same thing, like you don't have
a case. So we got into talking about it because
you'd be surprised he was in that room. There's a
(27:09):
lot of people who do not want to have a
lot of guys who were first about the Hall of
Famers get in because they like guys who've been waiting
to have their opportunity for christ I know, I know.
It's it's like want we need to politicize the Hall
of Fame of of NFL. It's like pretty simple. You
know what sucks when a guy finally gets in and
it's after he passed away, that's what sucks. And they're
(27:31):
playing with people's legacies like they would like to see.
They're playing with like Connor Barwins or Doug Baldwin's have
been on how the Solar just you know, you never know.
There's a lot going on there. And I didn't really
Doug Baldwin have been retired five years either, interesting, but
it was he undrafted Doug Baldwin. Uh. I think he
might have been a reason late round PICKMN Stanford right
(27:53):
Stafford here he might have been undrafted well, there it is.
There's your your update. The Hall of Fame class of
is we look it is two pros and a cup

Will get into that for you, but for all the
latest from around the world of sports. Mean you talk
about Hall of Famers, white Castle, NFL hockey, you name it,
(28:38):
it's ed been Garcia. I've never had white Castle before,
I believe it or not, you never had white Castle.
I have it all right? Good, I'm not alone. I
think you're my choice though. Yeah, I I would definitely, uh,
I would definitely give it a try if we had
it around here. But that should be a legal offense. Like,
you should be arrested anything, can you? Okay? So if
(28:59):
are they it there, should be arrested, not me, because
for a lot of things. So they're all sliders, So
how do you order them? Like a pack of four,
pack of sick? Pack eight is a pack eight? It's
called a stack, snack sack, sack sack, she said, sack LaVar.
(29:23):
Like if they were here, I'd be enjoying it. But
we don't have them around here because the in and
out you know it's good? Yeah, yeah, absolutely? What was
it called again? It's a sack. It's a sack of sliders.
Had many sacks and a crape crape leavar with leap

nothing else on it. Back on onions, pickles. Catch up.
You can get them with mustard. They also have chicken sliders.
Oh that's new. They serve breakfast as well. It's some
Belgian waffles with chicken in between. Did they do do
(30:07):
they do buffalo chicken? No? How did do buffalo chicken?
I mean in the morning, if they wanted out their game,
they were in the morning. I mean, I'm just saying
they have chicken rings. Too much like onion rings. But
it's chicken. I can't do that. Chicken doesn't come in
that form. I can't believe we've started making chicken the
forms it doesn't come in. That's that's the third time.

we turn it over to our executive producer Lee Do
do lap the lap. That's right, guys. In case you
missed we might have a little bit of a scandal
on our hands. Arizona Republic picked up on the story
(35:07):
an investigation into the Walter Payton Man of the Years
past twenty six of them actually um narrowed in on
Russell Wilson and Sierra's charity called what was it called?
It is called the Not Why Not You? Foundation? Claiming
that because of their tax forms, they might have only
been donating twenty four cents of every dollar UH two
(35:28):
went to the charities UH just described in their charity
during the COVID years of one. Their director has since
come out since this report claiming that more than seventy
cents of every dollar goes to these charities, racking up
more than ten million dollars. Difference between twenty four and
sea that's still buttent. Is still very high of amount
(35:51):
to not put towards the donation, Isn't it more like
it depends upon your charitable mission. They'd like you to
stay within like ENTR, so like that should be going
towards the charitable mission. Seventy is still for them to
say seventy that's still a long ways away from what
(36:15):
it's supposed to be. Anybody had a worse twelve months
than Russell Wilson from a PR standpoint. I mean not
to not to like throw other charities under the bus,
but um wounded Warriors got in trouble for this. I
heard about that because they were they were spending a
ton of money on marketing and I think administrative costs.
(36:36):
People lost jobs, right, Yeah, they kind of had to
at that point. But they realized like they were spending
so much on marketing, wasn't necessarily going to the veterans
that needed to Oh my god, that's a well. I mean, listen,
know it's tough to the COVID heere because like I,
I don't know what is what they do? What does
the charity do? Lee, I haven't here, um while I look,
(37:01):
While I look that up, they did say that a
lot of these events were canceled year, like that might
make some sense. Actually, they fight pediatric cancer, eliminate food insecurity,
and provide education for children in undeserved communities. I mean,
so you're probably not able to go visit kids who
are under cancer during COVID when everything's shut down, lockdown
(37:22):
and the even events and I don't know from running
the Foundation for Veterans, our stuff got locked out. We
have we had one event. They ain't come back. I
mean literally, like the family we worked with, they're like, yep,
I'm not doing a big group gatherings ever. Again, I
just say, the first thing forensically I would do if
I was in a scenario where I was investigating that
large of a percentage discrepancy is what are the paychecks
(37:44):
and how many UM employees do you have? And what
are they doing? What iss what you're saying somebody eating somebody?
Well somebody you know, I mean they get they get
an office to or no. Hell yeah, yeah, I've seen
I've seen some charity UM homes before, Like wait, this
(38:07):
is a charitable Like this was purchased through a charity.
Like I've seen these things before. There's some big money
out there. I'll tell you that. Well. I've also helped
with like habits at Like I remember we went with
while the Chiefs. We went to Joplin to help rebuild
homes and my dad's a homebuilder, so I got I
grew up being around like framing and foundations and all that. Man,
(38:29):
we put that thing up so quick. I was like,
I'm glad they get a new home, but that's probably
not gonna last, like I felt, I mean like that
was my first thought was, like, this thing is not
going to withstand of another storm comes through, a tornado
comes from That's the first thought. Now it does bring
up a greater point though, when I get fined ten
dollars for being quote unquote passing aggressive, much of that
(38:52):
donation you can take three dollars of that that ten
dollars and pay yourself, so pay somebody. So so only
of that ten dollars, So that's not what that's not
that much is not supposed to come out the point
that that's being made. So does this mean that I
can also give like two dollars and forty cents? Not,
(39:14):
because that's still that's still a little that's still a
little you you would have to give like like a dollar,
not like you know, nineties cents cents. I mean what
you're if you're basing it off of what what what
we're talking about? I mean, I mean that could work.
I mean, that would save me a lot of money.
Right now, I'll talk to some people. What else we got, late, guys?
(39:38):
This one, uh came across the line. Calgary Flames defenseman
russmas Anderson was hit by a car while writing on
a scooter downtown Detroit the other night. Thanky, he's okay,
but listen day to day on the injury report, how
cold is it in Detroit right now? You run a
scooter outside? You know it's February. It's have you freezing?
(39:58):
Let me tell you something? Was he ripped ley? They
say no alcohol was was deemed uh part of the
no indication of any alcohol and might have added on
these people on scooters are a nuisance. Okay, that's all
I'm gonna say, Lee, Yes is your time? Go ahead.
I was riding around downtown Phoenix last night yesterday on
the scooter. I was running through, running through lights all
(40:21):
day exactly. Well, the roads were all well blocked off,
so why not my my driver almost hit uh, a
scooter driver. It's weird to me, Like I just I
wish we could follow Lee show ends someone gets a camera,
they follow Lee wherever he goes. He was trying to
get one this morning to come in and he's like,
oh man, there's a they do last call on the scooters.
(40:43):
I was like, yeah, they don't want trunks right right,
bumping into it, almost like hitting a train. Who wants
to ride those things? You get hit by my car
hit myself, And I was like, lead us, he's gonna
do that. He's going to do it. He's really gonna
he's really going to do it. He is really good.
The outlawed them, and in where I live, they outlawed.
