Two Pros and a Cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio,
LaVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas knocks. Coming up on this
Wednesday edition, We've got more rumors atop the NFL Draft,
one team looking at a quarterback and somebody else in
their same division also looking at the quarterback. We will discuss.
We're also going to have a discussion about the NBA postseason.
(00:20):
There is a star in the league that is not
getting the star treatment. We're gonna talk about a Hall
of Famer who is taking to a plague route in
the world of sports and social media. Jerry Jones is
at it again. He is talking too much. We've got
another edition of NFL Draft over Unders. We've got the good,
the bad, and the ugly, the b Q News and
the great Petros Papadaka stops by all of it. Yours
(00:42):
coming up. Two Pros and a Cup of Joe on
a Wednesday, Fox Sports Radio. You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Yeah,
we got some brutal honesty in the NFL, Or is it?
We will get into that coming up here in just
a couple of moments from now. Two Pros and a
(01:03):
Cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington, Brady Quinn,
Jonas knocks with here on fs ARE. You can hang
out with us as always on the I Heart Radio app.
You can find us on hundreds of Fox Sports Radio
affiliates and wherever you are making us a part of
your Wednesday morning. We appreciate you doing so. We'll take
you all the way up until nine am Eastern times,
six o'clock Pacific. We are fast approaching Draft Night in
(01:25):
the NFL, the opening night of the draft this week.
We fired up yet or what? Come on? I'm not
quite there yet. You know we still got some time.
Come on, you don't want to be one of those
guys who gets too excited in pregame warmups. Speaking of me,
telling me about it, buddy, I was more intrigued by
Jonas is tease game. Man. You gotta be happily married, bro,
(01:47):
because you tea game is really good. You know it's
really good. LaVar the Brady called me the stripper of
Sports stock Radio, best teaser in the business. Yeah. I
don't know where it came to me. Yeah, where did
it come to you? I have no idea. I definite.
At one point I thought to myself, Jonas, you remind
me of a stripper. I think ticklers. To man, I
(02:15):
still throw one dollar bills at strip clubs or is it?
I don't know the word is After all the after
all the PPP funds and all the different things came
out during COVID, people were splurgeon They were throwing fives,
tens in some cases, especially at the second round of
p PPS. I don't know that that, but I think
(02:38):
if you're doing that, that's just a waste of money,
Like you need to go in a private room somewhere.
Wait wait, wait, so everything before the d is not
a waste. That's that's good money. Um. You know, maybe
even the fifties, and I want to save those, um,
but you might want to break those down. Get get well.
I'm just saying, like I think, twenties where it stops.
(02:59):
You know that point. If someone sees you throwing out twenties,
they're probably thinking there's a better business opportunity one on
one somewhere else. Do they still make two dollar bills?
My dad used to have a collection of two dollar bills.
They still make those? Why not? Come on? Man, can
I actually is air out someone to There are people
out there who they will solely ask for two dollar
(03:21):
bills because I do think there's some in circulation. I
don't know if they still make them, but they will
put them in their wallet for cash tips because they're
so unique. They think it's like a nice gesture. When
it all reality the person you're tipping, they'd rather have
three or four Yeah, right, Can I get three singles
(03:41):
instead of the one two dollar bill? Please? That makes
more sense. Well, that was the I think that was
what they did back in the day. When Clemson would
go travel for bowl games, um, they would have two
dollar bills and they would put an orange tiger paw
on the two dollar bills. And the thought for Clemson
was when they would go to a visiting city, if
(04:02):
they infiltrated the city and all their fans were paying
with two dollar bills, at the end of the weekend
or whatever, all the local businesses would have these two
dollar bills with these orange tiger paws on it, and
it would make them want them to come back again
and be accepted for a bowl game or whatever. Now
they don't have to worry about it because they're one
of the best teams in college football for as long
as coaches. Well, what really ended up happening that you're
(04:23):
not selling that entire story. If there's only a couple
of businesses that started absorbing all the two dollar bills,
that is a good point. You know. Another good point
to add to that is it wasn't that Birnie Mack's
name and player club, which brings us back to talking
he talking to great movie. Um, yeah, so we do
(04:47):
have some brutal odsty Um. So Scott Fitterers, the general
manager of the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers are picking number
six overall in the draft, and um, you know, he
told Sam Donald, his current quarterback, that yeah, they're probably
going to be adding a quarterback this upcoming weekend. They
want to be able to add to that quarterback room there.
So he felt like it was his responsibility to tell
(05:10):
Sam Donald and be brutally honest with him that we're
going to add to this position group. Now, Um, never mind, Well,
I mean, you know to you know, do we have
is this Scott Fitterer joining us here? Yes? So, Scott Fitterer,
he's he's got a throat laws in gin uh and
he's going to be be joining us in uh and
letting us know here about the the situation with Sam Donald.
(05:33):
So here is the Panthers Panthers general manager who would
like to be brutally honest with his current quarterback desire
for another quarterback. I sat down with with Sam yesterday
and just kinda we talked about everything, like we need
to help him out as well, we need to help
Hi out with the offensive line. I think we've done
a good job, you know, keep him DJ here and
(05:53):
you know with mccaffern's round him with a talent where
he doesn't feel like he has to make every play.
But we do have to protect him. But in our conversation,
I said, hey, listen, um, we are going to add
to this group. You know, through this weekend, there's pretty
good chance we could add to this group. And um,
it's open competition. You know, it's his his spot right now,
but whoever you gonna take this spot and run with it,
(06:14):
We're gonna do that. And so he he was good
with that. We're on the same page and uh, we
know we need to stabilize that position, but uh, we're
looking forward to adding to it. Can I can I
offer up some advice to Scott Fitter? All right? So
I love the honesty, but I think it's kind of
unnecessary because you kind of gave away what card you
were playing with when you decided to meet with Deshaun Watson,
(06:37):
because you're looking to upgrade the coarterback room. So that's
all I would like to point out there the military secret.
I think Sam Donald got the hint. I think he
got the clue here. Yeah, I think he knows they
want to add a quarterback. But the question becomes because
you use the word upgrade, like, is any of the
options out in the draft and upgrade? Is Baker Mayfield
(07:00):
an upgrade? Yeah? I think Jets fans will say, yeah,
we feel like maybe even Panthers fans said, yeah, we
feel like Baker Mayfield bit upgrade. Maybe the right. You know,
I think he's probably putting better tape out there his
rookie year, in his third year, but he's also been
a much better situation, right, I mean, the Jets are
a disaster, you know. Maybe they'll be better this year.
I don't know, but we everyone's trying to hype them
(07:21):
up last year and they stunk. By the way, just
cut that what Brady just said, and we can use
this every single year every time. Just just take the
day off next year. Don't your sound drops on the Jets.
That's the most accurate things said. In perpetuity. We can
use this this clip. You can use that clip forever
with the Jets. Um No. But but you know, it
(07:44):
doesn't really show their hand though, because they're not saying
if they're gonna draft one. They're not saying if they're gonna,
you know, sign Mayfield. They're gonna add a quarterback this weekend, right.
I think the more interesting part is the tough position
that they're in and whether or not their owner David
Tepper understands that they lost out of a guy they
(08:04):
are trying to target. There's really no option in this
draft class that makes you say, we feel great about
this guy coming in being a start of Day one.
It's just not that ideally. I think they want to
trade back. I think they want to try to get
more picks. I keep saying that they only have one
pick in the first three rounds. That's number six overall.
Sounds great, but not a draft class when you don't
(08:26):
have a guy that you really feel in love about. Me.
Scott Fitter has said publicly he feels comfortable with a
couple of guys at that spot. No, you don't like
you wanna be you wanna love the guy you're taking
at six? You don't say I feel comfortable Like it's
like okay, Like hey, how how do you end up?
Becky started dating? Well, we started dating because we were
friends and felt comfortable around each other. Like, who's ever
(08:49):
said that story before? Becky was a good tea? Becky? Yeah? Yeah?
You know who else is a good tease? Trevor Pinning,
He's a good tease. And that's why they're going to
trade out of that six pick because they think they
might be able to get them. You know, the Linemen
out of Northern Now and it's it's a it's a
(09:09):
small school, but it's Iowa. And if you know anything
about football and you pay attention to it, um, there's
something in the water there or the wheat or the
corn or I don't know what it is. The there's
something about Iowa. There's a lot of the corn. There's
a lot of corn because because well in Iowa, uh
(09:30):
you you just see different types of mammals that come
from there. I mean when we were at the Iowa
game this year, Brady I when they came out when
Iowa came out of the locker room. I said, my guy,
I would never play football ever again like this, I
become a person like this is scary. They were running
(09:53):
towards that they scary dudes. But the one thing about
iowa a lignement. They're nasty and they're they're they're comparing
this this penning um too to Marcia Ayonda, which is
the great Baltimore Ravens lineman. And if you know Matt Rule,
you know one thing about Matt Rule. He's going to
(10:14):
try to create a bunch of hard nose, lunch pale,
hard hat working dudes on his team. And I would
guarantee you that the sentiments and and the belief of
what they're going to try to do to take definitive
steps forward is to add to that offensive line, to
(10:37):
add to that defensive line, and and add guys that
are going to bring a value of we can whoop
your ass. And and so to me, I think that
it was interesting that that the GM would come out
and say it in the way that he did, because
here's the thing. There's no quarterback that is moving the
(10:58):
needle and terms of everybody saying yep, this is the
one we gotta get We gotta get him, We gotta
get him. You know, we could say Malik willis all
we want. He had a fine season. You know, his
team did well, Liberty did well. But let's be clear here,
there's still the idea you we mentioned boomer Bus yesterday
(11:20):
on on the defensive ends or defense and out of
out of Georgia Walker, But which one is a bigger
boomer Bus? Is it? Is it the defensive ends, the
adge guys that are being looked at at the one
to position or is it is it a Malik Willis
(11:40):
in the top ten? And to me, I think that
when you look at it from that perspective, the position,
it's a curious position that that Caroline is in. Which is,
if you get a guy and he's not the guy
at quarterback, it's over. You got a little bit more roadway.
You get a guy that you said, look here's an
(12:02):
offensive lineman. He's gonna be a Taylor Lawan, he's going
to be an anchor for this team. And we're gonna
see what we have and Darnald and if we can
get a Baker Mayfield or someone, you know, after this
whole draft is over, that we'll figure that out from there.
But if you take a Malik Willis or or another
(12:24):
quarterback with that high of a pick, that is not
only a boomer Bus pick for for the player, that's
a boomer Bus pick for the GM. That's a boomer
Bus pick for the for the coach. I mean, Matt
Rule is already a lame dot coach, right, Hey, easy, No, No,
I'm just like Doug. But but they've put him in
(12:45):
this spot. We've talked about it before that it's not
like they've addressed the quarterback position with a solid answer.
They brought in Teddy Bridgewater on basically a one year deal.
They traded for Sam Donald, It's like he hasn't really
and then they bring in Cam Newton um to run
some goal line packages. He hasn't really had an opportunity
to to see real talent at the quarterback position. And
(13:07):
and when they did go for Deshaun Watson, they didn't
want to guarantee years three and four of the deal.
So I just, I mean, maybe Scott Fitterer looks at
this and says, you know, I don't know if I
want to hitch my wagon to one of these quarterbacks
here at number six and and maybe they do go
in a different direction. Maybe it is Baker Mayfield, who knows,
Maybe Jimmy Garoppolo's a potential target for them. I just
(13:29):
I mean, like, what are the options there? Because if
I'm Matt Rule, I mean, aren't you calling your real
estate agent going, hey, so what do you think we
could give for this? Because I'm probably not going to
be here in a year from now. That's the tough
part is if Scott Fitterer ultimately is the one who's
been setting them up, how can you play in that? Rule?
Totally agree? I mean that's the tough part about this.
(13:51):
I always have felt like general managers get off the
hook if they're the ones ultimately responsible for who they're drafting,
because too oftentimes the easy blame game that goes on
is the well the coaching staff to develop them, or
they didn't you utilize them the right way, or they
didn't you run the proper scheme. It's like, well, that's
easy to say, but dude, why do you draft a
(14:12):
guy that didn't fit in their scheme? Why why do
you draft a guy that they didn't love? I mean,
that's why I feel like, if they don't love a
quarterback at six. What could very well happen is they
get stuck where no one wants to trade with them,
and they've got to make They've got to make a pick.
And I could see them going tackle there. I just
I don't think it's gonna be Penning, it's too high.
I think it'll be a guy like Charles Cross and
(14:33):
he's available. I don't know that Evan Neil or Quanta
will be there. But like those are the three tackles
you'll see go and probably the top six or seven
picks and and that's how that's gonna go. And and
that's where it would make the most sense, because they
do need help on their own line, whether it's for
Sam or Baker. But I think if they do that,
they can't trade and get more picks. You're probably looking
(14:54):
at them, you know, looking and talking to Baker Mayfield
on Friday, and that's where that trade would happen or
would occur, would think. But they'd have to read, they'd
have to look at trying to give him an extension
that he's not gonna want. And that's the tough part.
Like you've always already heard reports of the Seattle Seahawks
not liking that the current fifth year option price that
Baker Mayfield's under no one wants to No one wants
(15:16):
to pay him that right now, so he might have
to come to the reality that he either needs to
get traded with the restructure contract or drag this out
to the Brown's cuddle. It's a two Pros and a

am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio.
Trying to do a show here. Coop, Justin Cooper, just
just roaming around the studios. I think he owns the place,
well he does. I mean, what's like like famous celebrity
(16:20):
child by the way, I like how the kid from
LA I got the kid from Liar. Liar is now
known as a pothead at Fox Sports Radio. An, let's
get some unbelievable. It is two pros and a cup
(16:46):
of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington, Brady
Quinn Jonas knocks with you here on fs ARE. You
can listen to this show as always on the I
Heart Radio app. So we do have, um, we are
going to get to uh, you know, potential surprise near
the top of the NFL Draft. I didn't want to
get just Brady's thoughts on just an action packed edition
of the NBA Playoffs on on a Tuesday night. Brady,
(17:08):
your thoughts on the NBA Playoffs thus far and all
these storylines that have developed in the National Basketball Association
here over the past. Hot take, John Morant is the
best best basketball player still left in the uh in
the wow, Okay, you're going him number one over everyone else.
I think he's the most exciting to watch the most
(17:30):
fun to watch. I um, he's appointment television. Like again,
I don't know that the NBA does enough to highlight him,
and maybe people will challenge that, but I think he
is that bright of a budding star like him and
Devon Booker, in my opinion, need way more love because
they're part of that next wave of of great players
(17:52):
and I don't know that they get enough attention because
of where Lebron's app career wise, for the all time points,
you know, scoring uh Durant stills in in a high
point of his career even though he had you know,
a tough series versus Boston. But there's a number of
players who are coming along. Um, you know, Jason Tatum
falls in that category too, as as they've advanced, so
they had some you know, young, bright, butting stars. The
(18:16):
NBA needs to figure out how to do a better
job of doing what the NFL does, where once a
first bellot Hall of Famer moves on, especially at the
quarterback spot, who typically they're the faces of all this
the franchise or of the league, they immediately just get
highlighted like they immediately fall into this. Well, then you
have Patrick Mahomes and then you have Joe Burrow, and
then you have Justin Herbert. Then you like they just
(18:36):
come along Lamar Jackson like it just happens. And in
the n b A, it like takes a while for
them to get any sort of traction for some reason.
I think the League could do a better job of
helping build that, especially Devin Booker. I mean, he's dating
into the Kardashian family or they might be married. Now
I'm just saying like there there's an opportunity there, and
it feels like he doesn't get in here if they
(18:59):
were married, though, I mean, I feel like I feel
like the Kardashian isn't really like like when when any
Kardashian gets married, I'm like, okay, that's that is like
a junior high relationship takes just one It takes one
note where it's like, um, I don't want to be
with you anymore, all right, done? Like that's it. That's
all it takes. With a couple with the Kardashian married
(19:21):
or not, it's like a junior high relationship. But there
is something to them. Who they date, they get famous,
or they're already face. I mean, it's Humphrey decision Yeah,
he didn't do he didn't deserve to be famous, you
know what I mean. Basketball player, but no, ch one
of the best players, Chris Humphrey, Humphrey famous instantly. No, No,
(19:49):
Devin Booker can do it, you know what I mean.
But you you think about Chris Humphrey, is that famous?
Off of that to Chris Humphrees like the crappy asps
and just look and Adam saying you don't deserve to
be here. You're not about before. I was like, boo,
well I've seen him because you know he was a
(20:09):
jersey I believe, like right around to say was it
the right round at say time? It was, man, he
was the dirty jersey around that. Yeah, I seen him out.
That was like that was I said to him. It's like, Okay,
Tristan Thompson is I think I think he's more well
known by the general population than Devin Booker. And that's
(20:31):
a crime. That's Booker is a superstar. Granted, he bawled out.
He bawled out when they wont he was one of
the unsung heroes. What Cleveland? What that that championship? He baled,
he bawled, but he was bald for him like he oh, jeez,
(20:53):
don't touch him, cleed him, don't do anything. Well, those
balls are perfect. I don't want anyone touching the balls
after that. I don't want anyone rubbing them to Those
balls are perfect today, Bruce Bruce Jenner joining us. Sorry, clearly,
well clearly kisses me off when balls going underneath Reauce.
(21:13):
Really I understand. It's it's clear that Tristan had some
value there. You know they were because the Kardashians ain't
the only ones that they have been benefiting. Uh. Anyway,
the point is they they've got famous off of that,
and there's something to that. I think there's something to that.
You gotta play up the Devin Booker and uh what
(21:35):
which what? Which gender is it? I who cares that?
There's kend I think? Um, Now, Minnesota did blow another lead. Um,
you know, not to piss off our fans listening who
might still be with us listening on k fan Uh
the Yaller Horn of the Twin Cities. They were up
(21:56):
eleven with under seven minutes ago. I had this game
with an opportunity to close it out on Friday night,
and unfortunately, uh, another blown lead. Um and uh, I'm
sure Karl Anthony Towns is probably one. Yeah to a half.
He played great that next game. After the wine, he did,
(22:16):
I'm any wine recommendations, Brady, any Uh? What do you
think is out there? Depends what you're looking for. I'm
not really a wine guys. You know, I'm more of
a A that's a good point. Well, I'm more of
an I P A very good point. Yeah. Anytime you
can get a that's I've all in for that. Well?
(22:37):
Is that is that a brand? Very good? Right next to? Okay? Here?
Is that? Is that a better wine than the box wine?
My buddy, my buddy's dad loved the but he was
straight from Italy and he loved the box wine. That
was his go to? Is that better than Italy? Well,
(22:59):
I just wanted you to to know that I'm well traveled.
If you say off the boat, it just gives more credibility.
I have no idea. I didn't want I didn't want
to offend you. Now that you're full blown Italian, Well
I'm not. First off, I'm not. I'm not an FBI,
which is what they referred to it that Italian. Alright,
I've already admitted this. I found out that apparently, are
(23:23):
you there you go full blooded black men. Yeah, vv baby, yeah,
baby man, it's not bad. There's some there's some good
(23:43):
box I've never had it, but yeah, fool bbes like
boxed to the box wines is like people people would
try to equate like a box of the box wines
to a bottle and really there's like three bottles in
a box with those like six bottles in a box.
So they're like, we only had one box of wine.
(24:05):
They're like, do you drink three bottles of wine in
one city? That's a little aggressive, man. It is two
pros and a cup of Joe. Here on Fox Sports
Radio coming up in twelve minutes from now, we've got
a plague in the world of sports at his back.
Somebody else, a future Hall of Famer, is now partaking
in this plague. We will have the details on that
for you here on fs R. So, who do you
guys think? Uh? Yeah, By the way, do you see
(24:27):
that video of him? Was that like a rap concert?
He was dressed up as a painter and he was
on stage like doing some little twist. Antonio Brown just yeah,
just some little twist, you know, you know, yeah, just
be more descriptive place well, like he was like twisting
his hips and he had like this weird he looked
(24:47):
like like one of those wind puppets outside of car dealership.
He was just kind of all over the stage. I
didn't really have a lot of a lot going on,
but that was like the best he had because he
realized the Proud wasn't responding to his crummy song. Um, yeah,
but Antonio Brown has a song. Yeah, he has a
rap song. He has more than wood. Yeah, a whole
lot of money. Yeah he does. Yeah, bid booming boom business. Yeah,
(25:13):
what did you say, booming? Give me some more bars? Okay,
you're ready, You're ready been boom? Yeah said that, But
what you just said that? Give me another barby but

probably recorded that once and they just kept playing it.
He's like, I gotta get going that. They just kept
(25:33):
on playing like this dude copying baste. My eldest daughter
has a bit of a speech impediment. I feel like
she could say that pretty movement the booming by the way.

lay four yeah yeah, seven foot ladder yep. Okay, thanks,
you're going to wait half to wait here for a moment, sir?
How are you going to pat him? Now? You're gonna
(27:46):
check his shoulders, his neck? How you what you're gonna check?
I gotta be careful though, I tell you what, brother,
could be a whole lot of discovery going on. All right.
He might not make his play, but I've seen him
in the airport. It's so interesting. It wasn't on the
other side of security. Um I can I actually as this?
(28:09):
Who do you think? Who do you think is the
first quarterback drafted? And tomorrow night, assuming they're both going
in the first round, who do you think it is?
Because there's some interesting um odds and situations at the
top courtesy of our friends at DraftKings. Um, So, who
do you think it is? I'm gonna say maligue Willis
because I think this is the general thought to this
(28:30):
quarterback draft class. If you don't feel like, and there's
been many people who have said this, that any of
these guys are true first round grades, but you feel
like like one of them has the most upside, meaning
he could become something special or he could be something special.
He's got those tools, he's got the strong arm, he's
got the athleticism. If that's Malik Willis, that I think
(28:54):
he ends up being the first take. And for that reason, Um,
you know, if if your draft think any of these
other quarterbacks. I get the sense, and either from people
I've talked to in the league that our coaches or
front office, and even just from the perception from a
lot of reports, is that teams are trying to talk
themselves into some of these guys. So I think he'll
(29:16):
be the first taken. Yeah, I know. Seriously, Like I
get get excited, folks. That being said, I do think
there's some guys who've got some qualities that can be started,
but look, they have to be in a in a
they have to be in the right situation circumstances. I
can't say that enough throughout this process, because there's there's
no one in this class that has that extraordinary talent
(29:40):
or ability at least that I see right now that's
gonna elevate the level of play of everyone else side
around them. There's no one you're watching it right now
that you're saying that's gonna be Joe Burrow. He goes
in year one, he's gonna demonstrate the fact he's the guy,
and then year to be able to take his team
to a super Bowl, or Justin Herbert or Josh Allen
or Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jack's like there is known
(30:00):
with some of those qualities when you start naming off
these guys. This class doesn't have that, and that's okay.
But the truth is, if there is one guy, it's
probably Malik Willis as far as some of those things
you see on tape and in this game, and that's
why I think he'll probably I think he'll be the
first quarterback taking off the board. He's almost a two
(30:20):
to one favorite to go first off the board. I
think it's gonna be Atlanta too. By the way, yeah,
with with Kenny Pickett, who's second. What's interesting pick is
that Atlanta is twelve. No, that's eight. I thought, yeah, yeah,
So I don't think anyone. I don't think they're going
to something, staying with my bold prediction. So may be
the first one to go. And I do believe that
(30:43):
I gotta feel it that pick. It might slat to
the second round, man, I really do um. But I
just don't think that a quarterback is going to go
into top fifteen. So do not. So Malik Willis is
where I got twelve from. He's eleven and a half
is the over under where they're projecting him to go.
Either he's going to go at eleven or after eleven.
That's sort of the betting line on Malik Willis. What's interesting, though,
(31:06):
is that we talked about Carolina potentially adding a quarterback,
their general manager saying, so this weekend, Carolina picks six,
and the odds on the quarterback favored to go at
six would be Kenny Pickett significantly more so the Malik Willis.
So maybe the feeling is Carolina would like Kenny Pickett
more in Atlanta would like Malik Willis more. And that's
(31:29):
just where you're seeing the difference between the two. For
for what it's do you want to be that team
that is caught out there. You spit that high of
a pick on a guy at that position that you're
sure that's a guy. Yeah, they'll do that. I mean
Christian Ponder, There's there's a plenty other example. So you
(31:51):
can talk about the guys who are up in that spot.
Yeah they will. And that's what I'm hearing is is
you know, when it comes down to a quarterback, the
owner is involved in a lot of it. And if
you trace back the roots for David Tepper, you know
he like I believe, Carnegie Mellon their their business school
there in Pittsburgh. It's named after him. It's a Temper
School of business. You know, you look at Arthur Blanket Atlanta,
(32:12):
He's looking at Malik saying he's he's a Georgia kid.
I'd love to get him back here. I love to
have him as part of our franchise, the face of
this franchise. So I think both owners kind of have
some roots or understand the roots of the quarterback that
are playing a part or a portion of of maybe
some of the decisions that are being made too. It's
two pros and a cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio

(34:06):
has deleted the Lakers from his Instagram account. In fact,
he's scrubbed his account of all of his former teams
except for the thunder Good. She'd be cut and kicked
out of the League's a band for two years. Tired
of it? It isn't he too old to use the
whole social media scrubbing deal? That's boys, that's kids these days.
I'm just second, like, does he follow that category? How
(34:29):
old is is? Anybody over the age of twelve who
does this should be put in jail for six months.
I'm technically allowed to use Instagram before twelve. I mean
it's just yeah, that's a good point, Like, is there
is there a an age limit on or you know,
some sort of requirement. I do think you're not You're
supposed to be a certain age before you use Instagram whatever,
(34:51):
whatever age it is. Six months in jail, you start
scrubbing stuff. Get get a grit man year old soul.
We're gonna do some hard time. So that's how it's
gotta be. Man tired of it? Come on, um, in
all seriousness, though, how old is he? Is he too
old for this? Back to the original point. Yeah, and
(35:12):
Instagram requires its users to at least be thirty years
of age, So okay, all right, well hey listen, so
he's thirty three years old, but he's turning thirty four
in November, so yeah, just can't we resort to like
more mature ways, just saying I feel like you guys
threw me under the bus. I'd like to handle this
(35:32):
more professionally. Can we can't we do that at this
at that point in time in your lifespan? Is that
not possible now? Because then you're you're considered uh, you know,
an old guy. I get off my lawn. You're not
adapting to the new technology. Blah blah blah. Maybe he'll
go buy uh, I don't know, he'll go buy us
N franchise in the metaverse and start that up or something.
(35:54):
That whole thing, Hey, that whole thing. What are we
doing here? I mean, what are we doing playing video games?
We're turning video games into real life. So what we're doing?
I'm sick of it? That got ugly pretty quick, guys.
Some college baseball news here. Kansas Wesleyan baseball team has
formally accused Bethany College, their rival, of poisoning their water
(36:17):
coolers with paint. There. They then went on to beat
this team thirty three to two, so it performance enhance
her even with paint thinner. They still, yeah, that is
a good point. Is there a Is there some sort
of a p d or in store into the paint
dinner there? I mean, if that's the case, what are
(36:39):
we looking at here? What's the problem are they claiming?
And they underperformed? But that's this is a classic case
of the coach giving lying, you know, in accurate, fabricated
lies to bulletin board wall material his players or her players,
their players. I mean, we'll say this, uh, you know,
(37:01):
at least you know it's not some elaborate sort of
poison built in the lab. They just went to a
hardware store and you said, you don't want paint. It's
a laxative right. Isn't that what it would do. That's

we got some brutal honesty in the NFL, Or is it?
We will get into that coming up here in just

you all the way up until nine am Eastern times,
six o'clock Pacific. We are fast approaching Draft Night in
(01:25):
the NFL, the opening night of the draft this week.
We fired up yet or what? Come on? I'm not
quite there yet. You know we still got some time.
Come on, you don't want to be one of those
guys who gets too excited in pregame warmups. Speaking of me,
telling me about it, buddy, I was more intrigued by
Jonas is tease game. Man. You gotta be happily married, bro,
(01:47):
because you tea game is really good. You know it's
really good. LaVar the Brady called me the stripper of
Sports stock Radio, best teaser in the business. Yeah. I
don't know where it came to me. Yeah, where did
it come to you? I have no idea. I definite.
At one point I thought to myself, Jonas, you remind
me of a stripper. I think ticklers. To man, I
(02:15):
still throw one dollar bills at strip clubs or is it?
I don't know the word is After all the after
all the PPP funds and all the different things came
out during COVID, people were splurgeon They were throwing fives,
tens in some cases, especially at the second round of
p PPS. I don't know that that, but I think
(02:38):
if you're doing that, that's just a waste of money,
Like you need to go in a private room somewhere.
Wait wait, wait, so everything before the d is not
a waste. That's that's good money. Um. You know, maybe
even the fifties, and I want to save those, um,
but you might want to break those down. Get get well.
I'm just saying, like I think, twenties where it stops.
(02:59):
You know that point. If someone sees you throwing out twenties,
they're probably thinking there's a better business opportunity one on
one somewhere else. Do they still make two dollar bills?
My dad used to have a collection of two dollar bills.
They still make those? Why not? Come on? Man, can
I actually is air out someone to There are people
out there who they will solely ask for two dollar
(03:21):
bills because I do think there's some in circulation. I
don't know if they still make them, but they will
put them in their wallet for cash tips because they're
so unique. They think it's like a nice gesture. When
it all reality the person you're tipping, they'd rather have
three or four Yeah, right, Can I get three singles
(03:41):
instead of the one two dollar bill? Please? That makes
more sense. Well, that was the I think that was
what they did back in the day. When Clemson would
go travel for bowl games, um, they would have two
dollar bills and they would put an orange tiger paw
on the two dollar bills. And the thought for Clemson
was when they would go to a visiting city, if
(04:02):
they infiltrated the city and all their fans were paying
with two dollar bills, at the end of the weekend
or whatever, all the local businesses would have these two
dollar bills with these orange tiger paws on it, and
it would make them want them to come back again
and be accepted for a bowl game or whatever. Now
they don't have to worry about it because they're one
of the best teams in college football for as long
as coaches. Well, what really ended up happening that you're
(04:23):
not selling that entire story. If there's only a couple
of businesses that started absorbing all the two dollar bills,
that is a good point. You know. Another good point
to add to that is it wasn't that Birnie Mack's
name and player club, which brings us back to talking
he talking to great movie. Um, yeah, so we do
(04:47):
have some brutal odsty Um. So Scott Fitterers, the general
manager of the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers are picking number
six overall in the draft, and um, you know, he
told Sam Donald, his current quarterback, that yeah, they're probably
going to be adding a quarterback this upcoming weekend. They
want to be able to add to that quarterback room there.
So he felt like it was his responsibility to tell
(05:10):
Sam Donald and be brutally honest with him that we're
going to add to this position group. Now, Um, never mind, Well,
I mean, you know to you know, do we have
is this Scott Fitterer joining us here? Yes? So, Scott Fitterer,
he's he's got a throat laws in gin uh and
he's going to be be joining us in uh and
letting us know here about the the situation with Sam Donald.
(05:33):
So here is the Panthers Panthers general manager who would
like to be brutally honest with his current quarterback desire
for another quarterback. I sat down with with Sam yesterday
and just kinda we talked about everything, like we need
to help him out as well, we need to help
Hi out with the offensive line. I think we've done
a good job, you know, keep him DJ here and
(05:53):
you know with mccaffern's round him with a talent where
he doesn't feel like he has to make every play.
But we do have to protect him. But in our conversation,
I said, hey, listen, um, we are going to add
to this group. You know, through this weekend, there's pretty
good chance we could add to this group. And um,
it's open competition. You know, it's his his spot right now,
but whoever you gonna take this spot and run with it,
(06:14):
We're gonna do that. And so he he was good
with that. We're on the same page and uh, we
know we need to stabilize that position, but uh, we're
looking forward to adding to it. Can I can I
offer up some advice to Scott Fitter? All right? So
I love the honesty, but I think it's kind of
unnecessary because you kind of gave away what card you
were playing with when you decided to meet with Deshaun Watson,
(06:37):
because you're looking to upgrade the coarterback room. So that's
all I would like to point out there the military secret.
I think Sam Donald got the hint. I think he
got the clue here. Yeah, I think he knows they
want to add a quarterback. But the question becomes because
you use the word upgrade, like, is any of the
options out in the draft and upgrade? Is Baker Mayfield
(07:00):
an upgrade? Yeah? I think Jets fans will say, yeah,
we feel like maybe even Panthers fans said, yeah, we
feel like Baker Mayfield bit upgrade. Maybe the right. You know,
I think he's probably putting better tape out there his
rookie year, in his third year, but he's also been
a much better situation, right, I mean, the Jets are
a disaster, you know. Maybe they'll be better this year.
I don't know, but we everyone's trying to hype them
(07:21):
up last year and they stunk. By the way, just
cut that what Brady just said, and we can use
this every single year every time. Just just take the
day off next year. Don't your sound drops on the Jets.
That's the most accurate things said. In perpetuity. We can
use this this clip. You can use that clip forever
with the Jets. Um No. But but you know, it
(07:44):
doesn't really show their hand though, because they're not saying
if they're gonna draft one. They're not saying if they're gonna,
you know, sign Mayfield. They're gonna add a quarterback this weekend, right.
I think the more interesting part is the tough position
that they're in and whether or not their owner David
Tepper understands that they lost out of a guy they
(08:04):
are trying to target. There's really no option in this
draft class that makes you say, we feel great about
this guy coming in being a start of Day one.
It's just not that ideally. I think they want to
trade back. I think they want to try to get
more picks. I keep saying that they only have one
pick in the first three rounds. That's number six overall.
Sounds great, but not a draft class when you don't
(08:26):
have a guy that you really feel in love about. Me.
Scott Fitter has said publicly he feels comfortable with a
couple of guys at that spot. No, you don't like
you wanna be you wanna love the guy you're taking
at six? You don't say I feel comfortable Like it's
like okay, Like hey, how how do you end up?
Becky started dating? Well, we started dating because we were
friends and felt comfortable around each other. Like, who's ever
(08:49):
said that story before? Becky was a good tea? Becky? Yeah? Yeah?
You know who else is a good tease? Trevor Pinning,
He's a good tease. And that's why they're going to
trade out of that six pick because they think they
might be able to get them. You know, the Linemen
out of Northern Now and it's it's a it's a
(09:09):
small school, but it's Iowa. And if you know anything
about football and you pay attention to it, um, there's
something in the water there or the wheat or the
corn or I don't know what it is. The there's
something about Iowa. There's a lot of the corn. There's
a lot of corn because because well in Iowa, uh
(09:30):
you you just see different types of mammals that come
from there. I mean when we were at the Iowa
game this year, Brady I when they came out when
Iowa came out of the locker room. I said, my guy,
I would never play football ever again like this, I
become a person like this is scary. They were running
(09:53):
towards that they scary dudes. But the one thing about
iowa a lignement. They're nasty and they're they're they're comparing
this this penning um too to Marcia Ayonda, which is
the great Baltimore Ravens lineman. And if you know Matt Rule,
you know one thing about Matt Rule. He's going to
(10:14):
try to create a bunch of hard nose, lunch pale,
hard hat working dudes on his team. And I would
guarantee you that the sentiments and and the belief of
what they're going to try to do to take definitive
steps forward is to add to that offensive line, to
(10:37):
add to that defensive line, and and add guys that
are going to bring a value of we can whoop
your ass. And and so to me, I think that
it was interesting that that the GM would come out
and say it in the way that he did, because
here's the thing. There's no quarterback that is moving the
(10:58):
needle and terms of everybody saying yep, this is the
one we gotta get We gotta get him, We gotta
get him. You know, we could say Malik willis all
we want. He had a fine season. You know, his
team did well, Liberty did well. But let's be clear here,
there's still the idea you we mentioned boomer Bus yesterday
(11:20):
on on the defensive ends or defense and out of
out of Georgia Walker, But which one is a bigger
boomer Bus? Is it? Is it the defensive ends, the
adge guys that are being looked at at the one
to position or is it is it a Malik Willis
(11:40):
in the top ten? And to me, I think that
when you look at it from that perspective, the position,
it's a curious position that that Caroline is in. Which is,
if you get a guy and he's not the guy
at quarterback, it's over. You got a little bit more roadway.
You get a guy that you said, look here's an
(12:02):
offensive lineman. He's gonna be a Taylor Lawan, he's going
to be an anchor for this team. And we're gonna
see what we have and Darnald and if we can
get a Baker Mayfield or someone, you know, after this
whole draft is over, that we'll figure that out from there.
But if you take a Malik Willis or or another
(12:24):
quarterback with that high of a pick, that is not
only a boomer Bus pick for for the player, that's
a boomer Bus pick for the GM. That's a boomer
Bus pick for the for the coach. I mean, Matt
Rule is already a lame dot coach, right, Hey, easy, No, No,
I'm just like Doug. But but they've put him in
(12:45):
this spot. We've talked about it before that it's not
like they've addressed the quarterback position with a solid answer.
They brought in Teddy Bridgewater on basically a one year deal.
They traded for Sam Donald, It's like he hasn't really
and then they bring in Cam Newton um to run
some goal line packages. He hasn't really had an opportunity
to to see real talent at the quarterback position. And
(13:07):
and when they did go for Deshaun Watson, they didn't
want to guarantee years three and four of the deal.
So I just, I mean, maybe Scott Fitterer looks at
this and says, you know, I don't know if I
want to hitch my wagon to one of these quarterbacks
here at number six and and maybe they do go
in a different direction. Maybe it is Baker Mayfield, who knows,
Maybe Jimmy Garoppolo's a potential target for them. I just
(13:29):
I mean, like, what are the options there? Because if
I'm Matt Rule, I mean, aren't you calling your real
estate agent going, hey, so what do you think we
could give for this? Because I'm probably not going to
be here in a year from now. That's the tough
part is if Scott Fitterer ultimately is the one who's
been setting them up, how can you play in that? Rule?
Totally agree? I mean that's the tough part about this.
(13:51):
I always have felt like general managers get off the
hook if they're the ones ultimately responsible for who they're drafting,
because too oftentimes the easy blame game that goes on
is the well the coaching staff to develop them, or
they didn't you utilize them the right way, or they
didn't you run the proper scheme. It's like, well, that's
easy to say, but dude, why do you draft a
(14:12):
guy that didn't fit in their scheme? Why why do
you draft a guy that they didn't love? I mean,
that's why I feel like, if they don't love a
quarterback at six. What could very well happen is they
get stuck where no one wants to trade with them,
and they've got to make They've got to make a pick.
And I could see them going tackle there. I just
I don't think it's gonna be Penning, it's too high.
I think it'll be a guy like Charles Cross and
(14:33):
he's available. I don't know that Evan Neil or Quanta
will be there. But like those are the three tackles
you'll see go and probably the top six or seven
picks and and that's how that's gonna go. And and
that's where it would make the most sense, because they
do need help on their own line, whether it's for
Sam or Baker. But I think if they do that,
they can't trade and get more picks. You're probably looking
(14:54):
at them, you know, looking and talking to Baker Mayfield
on Friday, and that's where that trade would happen or
would occur, would think. But they'd have to read, they'd
have to look at trying to give him an extension
that he's not gonna want. And that's the tough part.
Like you've always already heard reports of the Seattle Seahawks
not liking that the current fifth year option price that
Baker Mayfield's under no one wants to No one wants
(15:16):
to pay him that right now, so he might have
to come to the reality that he either needs to
get traded with the restructure contract or drag this out
to the Brown's cuddle. It's a two Pros and a

fun to watch. I um, he's appointment television. Like again,
I don't know that the NBA does enough to highlight him,
and maybe people will challenge that, but I think he
is that bright of a budding star like him and
Devon Booker, in my opinion, need way more love because
they're part of that next wave of of great players
(17:52):
and I don't know that they get enough attention because
of where Lebron's app career wise, for the all time points,
you know, scoring uh Durant stills in in a high
point of his career even though he had you know,
a tough series versus Boston. But there's a number of
players who are coming along. Um, you know, Jason Tatum
falls in that category too, as as they've advanced, so
they had some you know, young, bright, butting stars. The
(18:16):
NBA needs to figure out how to do a better
job of doing what the NFL does, where once a
first bellot Hall of Famer moves on, especially at the
quarterback spot, who typically they're the faces of all this
the franchise or of the league, they immediately just get
highlighted like they immediately fall into this. Well, then you
have Patrick Mahomes and then you have Joe Burrow, and
then you have Justin Herbert. Then you like they just
(18:36):
come along Lamar Jackson like it just happens. And in
the n b A, it like takes a while for
them to get any sort of traction for some reason.
I think the League could do a better job of
helping build that, especially Devin Booker. I mean, he's dating
into the Kardashian family or they might be married. Now
I'm just saying like there there's an opportunity there, and
it feels like he doesn't get in here if they
(18:59):
were married, though, I mean, I feel like I feel
like the Kardashian isn't really like like when when any
Kardashian gets married, I'm like, okay, that's that is like
a junior high relationship takes just one It takes one
note where it's like, um, I don't want to be
with you anymore, all right, done? Like that's it. That's
all it takes. With a couple with the Kardashian married
(19:21):
or not, it's like a junior high relationship. But there
is something to them. Who they date, they get famous,
or they're already face. I mean, it's Humphrey decision Yeah,
he didn't do he didn't deserve to be famous, you
know what I mean. Basketball player, but no, ch one
of the best players, Chris Humphrey, Humphrey famous instantly. No, No,
(19:49):
Devin Booker can do it, you know what I mean.
But you you think about Chris Humphrey, is that famous?
Off of that to Chris Humphrees like the crappy asps
and just look and Adam saying you don't deserve to
be here. You're not about before. I was like, boo,
well I've seen him because you know he was a
(20:09):
jersey I believe, like right around to say was it
the right round at say time? It was, man, he
was the dirty jersey around that. Yeah, I seen him out.
That was like that was I said to him. It's like, Okay,
Tristan Thompson is I think I think he's more well
known by the general population than Devin Booker. And that's
(20:31):
a crime. That's Booker is a superstar. Granted, he bawled out.
He bawled out when they wont he was one of
the unsung heroes. What Cleveland? What that that championship? He baled,
he bawled, but he was bald for him like he oh, jeez,
(20:53):
don't touch him, cleed him, don't do anything. Well, those
balls are perfect. I don't want anyone touching the balls
after that. I don't want anyone rubbing them to Those
balls are perfect today, Bruce Bruce Jenner joining us. Sorry, clearly,
well clearly kisses me off when balls going underneath Reauce.
(21:13):
Really I understand. It's it's clear that Tristan had some
value there. You know they were because the Kardashians ain't
the only ones that they have been benefiting. Uh. Anyway,
the point is they they've got famous off of that,
and there's something to that. I think there's something to that.
You gotta play up the Devin Booker and uh what
(21:35):
which what? Which gender is it? I who cares that?
There's kend I think? Um, Now, Minnesota did blow another lead. Um,
you know, not to piss off our fans listening who
might still be with us listening on k fan Uh
the Yaller Horn of the Twin Cities. They were up
(21:56):
eleven with under seven minutes ago. I had this game
with an opportunity to close it out on Friday night,
and unfortunately, uh, another blown lead. Um and uh, I'm
sure Karl Anthony Towns is probably one. Yeah to a half.
He played great that next game. After the wine, he did,
(22:16):
I'm any wine recommendations, Brady, any Uh? What do you
think is out there? Depends what you're looking for. I'm
not really a wine guys. You know, I'm more of
a A that's a good point. Well, I'm more of
an I P A very good point. Yeah. Anytime you
can get a that's I've all in for that. Well?
(22:37):
Is that is that a brand? Very good? Right next to? Okay? Here?
Is that? Is that a better wine than the box wine?
My buddy, my buddy's dad loved the but he was
straight from Italy and he loved the box wine. That
was his go to? Is that better than Italy? Well,
(22:59):
I just wanted you to to know that I'm well traveled.
If you say off the boat, it just gives more credibility.
I have no idea. I didn't want I didn't want
to offend you. Now that you're full blown Italian, Well
I'm not. First off, I'm not. I'm not an FBI,
which is what they referred to it that Italian. Alright,
I've already admitted this. I found out that apparently, are
(23:23):
you there you go full blooded black men. Yeah, vv baby, yeah,
baby man, it's not bad. There's some there's some good
(23:43):
box I've never had it, but yeah, fool bbes like
boxed to the box wines is like people people would
try to equate like a box of the box wines
to a bottle and really there's like three bottles in
a box with those like six bottles in a box.
So they're like, we only had one box of wine.
(24:05):
They're like, do you drink three bottles of wine in
one city? That's a little aggressive, man. It is two
pros and a cup of Joe. Here on Fox Sports
Radio coming up in twelve minutes from now, we've got
a plague in the world of sports at his back.
Somebody else, a future Hall of Famer, is now partaking
in this plague. We will have the details on that
for you here on fs R. So, who do you
guys think? Uh? Yeah, By the way, do you see
(24:27):
that video of him? Was that like a rap concert?
He was dressed up as a painter and he was
on stage like doing some little twist. Antonio Brown just yeah,
just some little twist, you know, you know, yeah, just
be more descriptive place well, like he was like twisting
his hips and he had like this weird he looked
(24:47):
like like one of those wind puppets outside of car dealership.
He was just kind of all over the stage. I
didn't really have a lot of a lot going on,
but that was like the best he had because he
realized the Proud wasn't responding to his crummy song. Um, yeah,
but Antonio Brown has a song. Yeah, he has a
rap song. He has more than wood. Yeah, a whole
lot of money. Yeah he does. Yeah, bid booming boom business. Yeah,
(25:13):
what did you say, booming? Give me some more bars? Okay,
you're ready, You're ready been boom? Yeah said that, But
what you just said that? Give me another barby but
the movie. And you know the best part is he
probably recorded that once and they just kept playing it.
He's like, I gotta get going that. They just kept
(25:33):
on playing like this dude copying baste. My eldest daughter
has a bit of a speech impediment. I feel like
she could say that pretty movement the booming by the way.
By the way, speaking speaking of speech, um, congratulations to
(25:54):
Baal Powell on a on on a successful NFL care
Sorry Peanut butter in your mouth. So here's the Yeah,
Brady and I discovered this years ago that Bala pal
is one of the rare names that you can say
and then say it again with food in your mouth,
and it sounds exactly the same. Like just take out
my stereous Rucker who was once with hooting the Blowfish. Yeah,
(26:15):
it would have been perfect singing the song yea, because
of how you know he would It sounded like he
was always singing with mash potatos and yeah that and
bull bowl like you could say bull bull with nothing
in your mouth and then a jar of Jeff Airport.
I saw him at the airport last year and I
walked into the airport and salt knees like I was
(26:35):
looking at his kneecaps, and then I look. I went
up and I was up, and I was I was like, whoa,
let me let me get past that area, okay up?
And then I was up and I was up and
I was up, and then I kept going up and
then I kept going up and I was like, yo,
what up? Bow bow would oh man, that's the true story.
(27:03):
Get out of the edition that was eye level two.
I was violated, you know, talk through the metal detector
huh oh man, bro, that's one percent. He is not
standing in that that thing that they used these days.
He's you have to like, yeah, he has to squat down. Yeah,
(27:26):
there's no way. And I would love to see that
pat down take place, like, uh, yep, hey, we're gonna
need a ladder over here on yep lane four yeah yeah,
lay four yeah yeah, seven foot ladder yep. Okay, thanks,
you're going to wait half to wait here for a moment, sir?
How are you going to pat him? Now? You're gonna
(27:46):
check his shoulders, his neck? How you what you're gonna check?
I gotta be careful though, I tell you what, brother,
could be a whole lot of discovery going on. All right.
He might not make his play, but I've seen him
in the airport. It's so interesting. It wasn't on the
other side of security. Um I can I actually as this?
(28:09):
Who do you think? Who do you think is the
first quarterback drafted? And tomorrow night, assuming they're both going
in the first round, who do you think it is?
Because there's some interesting um odds and situations at the
top courtesy of our friends at DraftKings. Um, So, who
do you think it is? I'm gonna say maligue Willis
because I think this is the general thought to this
(28:30):
quarterback draft class. If you don't feel like, and there's
been many people who have said this, that any of
these guys are true first round grades, but you feel
like like one of them has the most upside, meaning
he could become something special or he could be something special.
He's got those tools, he's got the strong arm, he's
got the athleticism. If that's Malik Willis, that I think
(28:54):
he ends up being the first take. And for that reason, Um,
you know, if if your draft think any of these
other quarterbacks. I get the sense, and either from people
I've talked to in the league that our coaches or
front office, and even just from the perception from a
lot of reports, is that teams are trying to talk
themselves into some of these guys. So I think he'll
(29:16):
be the first taken. Yeah, I know. Seriously, Like I
get get excited, folks. That being said, I do think
there's some guys who've got some qualities that can be started,
but look, they have to be in a in a
they have to be in the right situation circumstances. I
can't say that enough throughout this process, because there's there's
no one in this class that has that extraordinary talent
(29:40):
or ability at least that I see right now that's
gonna elevate the level of play of everyone else side
around them. There's no one you're watching it right now
that you're saying that's gonna be Joe Burrow. He goes
in year one, he's gonna demonstrate the fact he's the guy,
and then year to be able to take his team
to a super Bowl, or Justin Herbert or Josh Allen
or Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jack's like there is known
(30:00):
with some of those qualities when you start naming off
these guys. This class doesn't have that, and that's okay.
But the truth is, if there is one guy, it's
probably Malik Willis as far as some of those things
you see on tape and in this game, and that's
why I think he'll probably I think he'll be the
first quarterback taking off the board. He's almost a two
(30:20):
to one favorite to go first off the board. I
think it's gonna be Atlanta too. By the way, yeah,
with with Kenny Pickett, who's second. What's interesting pick is
that Atlanta is twelve. No, that's eight. I thought, yeah, yeah,
So I don't think anyone. I don't think they're going
to something, staying with my bold prediction. So may be
the first one to go. And I do believe that
(30:43):
I gotta feel it that pick. It might slat to
the second round, man, I really do um. But I
just don't think that a quarterback is going to go
into top fifteen. So do not. So Malik Willis is
where I got twelve from. He's eleven and a half
is the over under where they're projecting him to go.
Either he's going to go at eleven or after eleven.
That's sort of the betting line on Malik Willis. What's interesting, though,
(31:06):
is that we talked about Carolina potentially adding a quarterback,
their general manager saying, so this weekend, Carolina picks six,
and the odds on the quarterback favored to go at
six would be Kenny Pickett significantly more so the Malik Willis.
So maybe the feeling is Carolina would like Kenny Pickett
more in Atlanta would like Malik Willis more. And that's
(31:29):
just where you're seeing the difference between the two. For
for what it's do you want to be that team
that is caught out there. You spit that high of
a pick on a guy at that position that you're
sure that's a guy. Yeah, they'll do that. I mean
Christian Ponder, There's there's a plenty other example. So you
(31:51):
can talk about the guys who are up in that spot.
Yeah they will. And that's what I'm hearing is is
you know, when it comes down to a quarterback, the
owner is involved in a lot of it. And if
you trace back the roots for David Tepper, you know
he like I believe, Carnegie Mellon their their business school
there in Pittsburgh. It's named after him. It's a Temper
School of business. You know, you look at Arthur Blanket Atlanta,
(32:12):
He's looking at Malik saying he's he's a Georgia kid.
I'd love to get him back here. I love to
have him as part of our franchise, the face of
this franchise. So I think both owners kind of have
some roots or understand the roots of the quarterback that
are playing a part or a portion of of maybe
some of the decisions that are being made too. It's
two pros and a cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio

Lee Just lap you guys. The trend continues. Russell Westbrook
(34:06):
has deleted the Lakers from his Instagram account. In fact,
he's scrubbed his account of all of his former teams
except for the thunder Good. She'd be cut and kicked
out of the League's a band for two years. Tired
of it? It isn't he too old to use the
whole social media scrubbing deal? That's boys, that's kids these days.
I'm just second, like, does he follow that category? How
(34:29):
old is is? Anybody over the age of twelve who
does this should be put in jail for six months.
I'm technically allowed to use Instagram before twelve. I mean
it's just yeah, that's a good point, Like, is there
is there a an age limit on or you know,
some sort of requirement. I do think you're not You're
supposed to be a certain age before you use Instagram whatever,
(34:51):
whatever age it is. Six months in jail, you start
scrubbing stuff. Get get a grit man year old soul.
We're gonna do some hard time. So that's how it's
gotta be. Man tired of it? Come on, um, in
all seriousness, though, how old is he? Is he too
old for this? Back to the original point. Yeah, and
(35:12):
Instagram requires its users to at least be thirty years
of age, So okay, all right, well hey listen, so
he's thirty three years old, but he's turning thirty four
in November, so yeah, just can't we resort to like
more mature ways, just saying I feel like you guys
threw me under the bus. I'd like to handle this
(35:32):
more professionally. Can we can't we do that at this
at that point in time in your lifespan? Is that
not possible now? Because then you're you're considered uh, you know,
an old guy. I get off my lawn. You're not
adapting to the new technology. Blah blah blah. Maybe he'll
go buy uh, I don't know, he'll go buy us
N franchise in the metaverse and start that up or something.
(35:54):
That whole thing, Hey, that whole thing. What are we
doing here? I mean, what are we doing playing video games?
We're turning video games into real life. So what we're doing?
I'm sick of it? That got ugly pretty quick, guys.
Some college baseball news here. Kansas Wesleyan baseball team has
formally accused Bethany College, their rival, of poisoning their water
(36:17):
coolers with paint. There. They then went on to beat
this team thirty three to two, so it performance enhance
her even with paint thinner. They still, yeah, that is
a good point. Is there a Is there some sort
of a p d or in store into the paint
dinner there? I mean, if that's the case, what are
(36:39):
we looking at here? What's the problem are they claiming?
And they underperformed? But that's this is a classic case
of the coach giving lying, you know, in accurate, fabricated
lies to bulletin board wall material his players or her players,
their players. I mean, we'll say this, uh, you know,
(37:01):
at least you know it's not some elaborate sort of
poison built in the lab. They just went to a
hardware store and you said, you don't want paint. It's
a laxative right. Isn't that what it would do. That's
what they would treading. Fox Sports Radio has the best
