Speaker 2 (00:23):
The results of his latest listen. I'm not going to

just your run of the middle hgh, but I don't

away we go here on this Thursday morning.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
How you feeling sticks?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
I feel good, man. I thought p eds were supposed
to make you you feel better, not not worse? Right?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Well, look, I wouldn't, oh I would.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I mean, how many times do you get suspended for
peds before you you get banned from from competition? Look,
I'm just killious I'm asking for a friend, and that's
all I was asking.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Some people have a habit.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I mean, I will tell you, I mean, but I do, uh,
I do want to just address, you know, obviously the
big story in the world's story on the top here,
let's do it. Let's check in live on the Los
Angeles Lakers. Smells died, So you know, Johnny, that's that's
(01:54):
a bit much here. Uh, that'll be that for the
Los Angeles Lakers. And and I don't know what you
read on the game was, but something became very obvious
to me in watching that game last night from the
get go.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
What was that Minnesota was.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Significantly better and the idea that the Lakers were favored
to win the series going into the season was laughable.
Minnesota wasn't good last night. Anthony Edwards wasn't even good.
They couldn't hit a shot. They were like six of
forty from three. At one point in the fourth quarter,
they had missed ten straight until Conley hit one from
(02:31):
the corner. Outside of Rudy Gobert and Julius Randall, Minnesota
didn't even play that well, and the Lakers weren't close.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
It wasn't like.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
They can say well, we took a lead here momentarily. Man,
they were never in that game and they came out
flat from the jump. The Timberwolves were by far and
away the better team and deserve to win it in five.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Oh Man, don't that's strong. That's a strong opinion. I
wouldn't say they weren't very good. I think they played well.
And I think that the one thing you have to
have in the NBA is complimentary basketball. That's why everybody
talks about having more than one superstar on a team.
You know, we saw so many times during Lebron's run
(03:18):
of dominance where there was a need for one or
the other two to step up, whether it was Weide
or whether it was Bosh that stepped up and came
up big for the heat. So to me, last night,
I thought it was I thought it was interesting that
(03:40):
Rudy Gobert went ham the way that he did, and
I wonder if that will we'll have him as a
threat moving forward. You gotta pay attention to him more
so now than ever after the type of performance he
had last evening. I tend to think that the way
(04:02):
they were defensing the Timberwolves, it was more perimeter driven
and it was probably more man to man driven matching
up wise, And so I wonder was it coaching, you know,
was it the scheme that allowed for Rudy Gobert to
(04:25):
have the type of game that he had, because there
were a lot of it was a lot of garbage
plays that took place. And listen, I know the basketball
purests out there will say no, no, no, it was
the players. It was the players, and some of it
was the players, some of it it was just Rudy
Gobert was able to just get a hold of the ball,
(04:46):
keep the ball alive and get garbage points. But I
just wonder was that part of the scheme because a
lot of times there was no one there when Rudy
Gobert was going to the hole to make the plays
that he made, more so than the rebounds, but to
get twenty twenty in a closeout game. They clearly wanted
(05:09):
to stop stop Anthony Edwards right like. That was clearly
the idea of it is play them on the perimeters,
and that gave him, That gave you know, Gobert the
opportunity to get to the rim, but it also gave
it also gave Julius Randall an opportunity to isolate, you know,
isolate guys at times and be able to slash at
(05:31):
times into the paint and be able to create his
own shots. So, yeah, Jonas, I thought it was I
thought it was a I actually thought it was a
pretty competitive game. I wasn't sure who was going to
win at one point, I just felt like it was
it was going to have to be. It was going
to have to be you know, Lebron obviously, but definitely
(05:56):
Luca and Luca's defense is just what people thought it was,
is what it is. They showed the Lakers GM at
one point he had the same face as the Laker
or as the used to rockets GM or not using ROCKETSCU,
the Dallas Maverick GM, the Nico Fella.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, Nico Harrison.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Look, we can say whatever we wanted, like jj W
Reddick got out coached. I mean, it does appear that
that's what happened here because there was the speculation about
what was the plan going into the fourth quarter? Why'd
you play everybody that many minutes? And he got a
little bit of a red ass and got tested. Were
tired yesterday, They were tired, and they looked tired at
(06:38):
the end of that game at the last night as
well too, and so Rudy Gobert once he found out that,
it was, Oh, you guys are just going to play
small and you're not going to play Jackson Hayes, and
this is just going to be what it's going to be. Okay,
I'll just go twenty and twenty and be the best
player on the floor all night. And it was and
like you, like, look at the final numbers, Like I said,
(07:00):
Minnesota didn't shoot. They were seven of forty seven from three.
It's like this looking like there was like there were
opportunities if the Lakers were the better team, or even
if they were close to being as good as Minnesota,
they're winning that game going away. There was every opportunity
on the table for the Lakers to win that game.
(07:23):
They aren't as good as the Timberwolves. And it's not close,
Like it isn't close. And that was like, really, I
looked at it last night and said, this is this
is pretty obvious, And it seemed pretty obvious from the jump.
Anthony Edwards spoke after the game and Aunt talked about
not only the win, taking the series in five, but
(07:43):
also what was the turning point this season for the Wolves.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You wanted everybody to be talking about the Lakers. You
saw everybody picking the Lakers. How does it feel now
to emerge from this series victorious the way that you
guys had, the way you did, and to prove those
kind of people wrong.
Speaker 5 (07:59):
You know what makes it even better is that they
said Lakers in five and the Wolves won in five.
So I think that makes it feel to times better.
That's like mama answer. I think the turning point for
us was the game when Julius came back in Phoenix.
I think that changed everything. We knew we needed them,
we was missing them and were just missing that piece.
(08:20):
Did that take them back that game too?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Talk?
Speaker 5 (08:24):
Yeah, So when they came back it kind of changed everything,
Like our whole demeanor change because we had like a
we had like a team meeting with FINCHI and the
coaches and like they got on us and they feel
like everybody responded the right way, Like everybody went and
looked in the mirror and said, you know, it's a
lot of things that I can do better for myself
to help the team instead of trying to blame somebody.
So we did that and everybody became like a grown
(08:47):
man in a sense.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
So there's your you guy, Anthony Edwards talking about listen
to some accountability.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
We got to get better. Stop pointing fingers, turning point.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Dante comes back to you, comes back, and they're off
and running U and they will be in the Western
Conference finals. They get the winner of Houston Golden State Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Will be in the finals for the Western Conference.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Uh. I think that. I guess we'll get to the
Houston Golden State one and and maybe at some point
I don't know, uh, but you know, they could be dangerous,
they could be or they could be fools gold as well.
I really like the Timberwolves. What I didn't really like
(09:34):
last night is that they were able to slow down
Anthony Atwards. I didn't. I didn't really like that a lot.
He got a double double and he almost he was
too to assist away from a triple double. Actually, but
it wasn't It wasn't an impressive showing. It wasn't like
(09:57):
this is a close out game and Anthony at Ward
was doing the deed. But again, you know, you have
a guy and Julius Randall who people may underestimate in
quite a you know, come some ways. But can really
play the game. I mean really, I think that if
(10:18):
they do make it to the Western Finals, if they
are competitive, if this is their year and they're not
fools goal, it will most likely be the contributions of
Julius Randall more so than Rudy Gobert or any other
player on the team. Michael Conley, he showed up when
he needed to, as you mentioned with that timely three,
(10:40):
He's going to have to be who he is and
not disappear when they get to the bigger games as well.
It's not going to be easy. This next round for
them will not be easy. Whichever team it is. If
it's Golden State, Golden State will have had the opportunity,
possibly foreseeably for to get healthier. I mean in a
(11:04):
way where Butler more specifically may have had more time
for his his pelvic contusion to have you know, gotten better.
And I think that's the difference right now in this series.
And I know, you know, people say you're you're so
caught up and you're so focused in on him, but
(11:27):
it's because I believe a healthy Butler on this team
gives them that added push that they need because right
now they only have a big one without Jimmy Butler
being fully you know, fully himself, and you can tell
he's out there not moving at his full potential. I
(11:48):
think if they're able to get through make it through
this this series against Houston, I think there they could
be dangerous moving forward. But I also believe that Houston
is now starting to kind of apply themselves and assert
themselves in a way where, you know, you start to
(12:09):
understand why they're so highly rated. You're you start to
realize why they had the type of season that they had,
and if their guys can continue to play, you know,
the way that they need to play, you know that.
I don't know. I think it's going to be a
super super hard road to hoe if you're if you're
(12:32):
the Grizzly uh yeah, if you're the Grizzlies. So Minnesota Timberwolves,
my bad Timberwolves. I mean, you think about it. Thompson
Thompson is a beast. Brooks is an agitator that that
can score. So that'll be interesting because they're going to
have to match that energy. Van Vliet is balling like
(12:56):
he is balling out of control right now now, and
they're just they're just so there's so many weapons on
on that team, Jalen Green. You know, there's so many
weapons that they have. They can get you in so
many different ways. Jonas, So, I think coming out of
that series, I think those are the two more dangerous teams.
(13:20):
I think they probably match up way better against the
Golden State Warriors then they do the Houston Rockets. But
I think it'll be a very very that is going
to be a very very good series. It'll be a
very competitive series. Whoever the Timberwolves end up playing against.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, I mean I listen.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I'm just trying to help people out here, Like if
they want to know what the future is going to
look like, I got it for you. It's going to
be Minnesota and it's going to be Okay, see in
the final for the Western Conference. You put that in
your Okay, spoke it. They do look good. That's why
they're favored on the DraftKings to win the NBA title.
So so that'll be that for the LA Lakers. The
(14:03):
Minnesota Timberwolves are off and running, and our fans listening
on the Yalla Horn of the Twin Cities kfan, congratulations,
you have humbled a lot of people out here in
Los Angeles a lot of people out here that we're

Two Pros and a Cup of Joe.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington Jonas Knox with the air boom.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Speaking of steroids, Lee, what's the name of this movie?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Uh, there's there's a movie about somebody who's on steroids
from the seventies.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
What's the name of the movie.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
This movie is called Love Lies Bleeding came out I
believe last year Christ and Stewart and you see Ed
Harris just now popped on screen with an awesome looking mullet.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
And she's all gassed out.
Speaker 7 (15:50):
Oh yeah, she's a christ and Stewart's love interest is
going for Miss Universe.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
I mean, you gook for it.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
I mean, all right, man, Like, that's a weird thing
to want to do a movie about.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
But nonetheless, all right.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
One of Lee's recommendations based on the scene we just saw,
of course, it is all right. Well listen, two pros
and a cup of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio,
and we do we've got a we've got an update
here on something that has turned into a circus. So
the latest on Bill Belichick and this whole story that
(16:32):
has just not gone well for him or his girlfriend Joe.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Let's call him perfectly well for her.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, there was some reports that came out yesterday that
she's amassed like over eight million dollars in real estate.
Her portfolio has grown ever since meeting Belichick. There was
also the New York Post did an article detailing her
acquiring these properties, and then later in the article they
pointed out that, you know, her parents ran a fishing charter,
(17:02):
a fishing business that went out of business in two thousand.
Her mom now runs a a sex toy and memorabilia shop.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
According to us. According to this article, which.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Hey, so you already know what time it is, it's
this work is sharp and reverse, Bill Belichick to be
foul in a civil suit soon.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Damn.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I told her no, it was non consensual.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
But now the there's also the the Hard Knocks component
to this. Uh, you know, leave the puns to yourself
when it comes to the sex toy conversation leading into
that name of the show. But so there was the
Hard Knocks from HBO was going to profile North Carolina,
(17:55):
and apparently the reason that that got sort of nick
they went in another direction, whatever direction that's going to be,
is because she stepped in. She wanted creative control. So
they're really painting a picture of somebody who's trying to
control everything and is really you know, Sunker Hookson to Belichick,
(18:15):
and that's sort of the conversation that is happening there.
But Belichick, following the disastrous interview that he did with CBS,
there was a statement from Belichick. We're assuming it's Belichick.
We are assuming this is Bill. A statement from Bill.
We're assuming a statement from Bill via North Carolina that
(18:39):
was sent out yesterday. And I'll read a little bit
to you here. This is from the statement quote. I
agreed to speak with CBS Sunday morning to promote my
new book, The Art of Winning, Lessons from My Life
in Football. Prior to this interview, I clearly communicated with
my publicist at Simon and Schuster that any promotional interviews
I participated in would agree to focus solely on the
content of the book. Unfortunately, that expectation was not honored
(19:03):
during the interview. I was surprised when unrelated topics were introduced,
and I repeatedly expressed to the reporter and the producers
that I preferred to keep the conversation centered on the book.
After this occurred several times, Jordan, with whom I share
both a personal and professional relationship, stepped in to reiterate
the point to help refocus the discussion. She was not
(19:24):
deflecting any specific question or topic, but simply doing her
job to ensure the interview stayed on track. Some of
the clips make it appear as though we are avoiding
the question of how we met, but we've been open
about that fact that Jordan and I met on a
flight to Palm Beach in twenty twenty one. The final
eight minute segment does not reflect the productive thirty five
(19:44):
minute conversation we had, which covered a wide range of
topics related to my career. Instead, it presents selectively edited
clips and stills from just a few minutes of the
interview to suggest a false narrative that Jordan was attempting
to control the conversation, which simply is not true. That
from Bill Belichick via North Carolina. In response to the
(20:07):
backlash and the conversation surrounding how awkward the interview was
with CBS Now, CBS did release statement of their own saying, look,
there was no preconditions on what we can and can't
talk about.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
None of that was done. We did everything on the
up and up. So there's this back and forth.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Now going on between Belichick and CBS, And here we
are and the circus tent is up and Belichick is
juggling bowling pins somewhere on a unicycle, and North Carolina
is overseeing it all, going, what the f man?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Well, I mean, he's making UNC football relevant. I mean
they're in the headlines. I mean, whether it's in indirectly
right now, it's still it still has them in the
media conversation. And listen, this isn't totally egregious. This isn't
(21:03):
like we're looking at Bill Belichick and it's like there's
this I don't know, it's not crazy craziness if you
ask me, I think it's interesting that he's dating someone
so young, but that's not for me to decide and
to judge. And for what it's worth, you know, she
(21:23):
is inserting herself pause into the situations to a very
large degree. But it seems as though it's welcomed by
Bill Belichick. It doesn't seem like it's getting on his
nerves in any way. It seems as though, if we're
looking at this at face value, she's protecting the asset,
(21:44):
and by the sounds of her portfolio growing, she would
certainly be serving herself best to make sure that the
main thing stays the main thing. You know. Obviously, if
he continues to have success, then she's going to continue
to have success. So I don't think that she's doing
anything that's going to undermine what Bill Belichick is doing.
(22:08):
In fact, I think that she's more of a watch dog.
It appears to be and listen.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Dog, how could you?
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Everybody has them? And the only reason why her watchdogging
is being focused in on and doubt in on is
because of the personal relationship. And if she was old,
if she was older, if she was closer to him
an age and didn't look the way she looks in
some of the pictures, or isn't a mermaid and he's
the Van Deicamps man or whatever it may be, then
(22:43):
you don't even have it's not even a storyline in
a way, if you really take a moment, it's kind
of it's kind of like it's some og type stuff.
Like Bill Belichick is a straight, straight in general. For
what he's got going on, I was gonna say gangster,
but I mean he is what it is, what it is,
(23:07):
he's he's a winner, he's a winner on the field.
He started anew. He has started a new venture by
going into coaching at UNC and he's taking his twenty
what is it twenty four? How old is she?
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Twenty four?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Forty one? She's twenty four. Yeah, it's crazy, man, his
twenty four year old girlfriend or partner whatever he wants
to call her, and he's brought her with him. If
you look at Bill Belichick, he's always kept his family involved, right, Yeah,
(23:45):
he's always kept his family involved. So at the end
of the day, Bill Belichick creates opportunities for the people
he cares about, and that's commendable. So he met the girl,
he cleared it up. He met the girl on flight,
so nobody won anything on any of the gambling sites
because that was not one of the options. That they
(24:06):
met on a flight to Palm Beach, which is kind
of funny. They were going to Palm Beach. I won't
touch on that, but that is kind of funny. Favorite
beach and probably Bobby Orchids too, you know, on Beach
is Florida. Anyway, I digress. I just think that when
(24:28):
you get when he knew going into this, making this
decision with her as high profile as he is, that
it's going to be a conversation. It really is going
to be a conversation. But if that man is happy
and she's happy and they're on the same page, he
doesn't hide her. You know, we haven't had any And
even if let's just say for the sake of saying,
(24:49):
some way, somehow somebody hacked into their phones or something
like that and they got a hold of like audio
and visual like what's going on with you know? Which
it wasn't hacking. Obviously this was given to Buzzby. But
just imagine if it was that type of situation scenario
where something pops up and it becomes public knowledge. I
(25:11):
don't even know that people react to it in a
way that they are with Shannon Sharp because they're incahoots.
These two are in it to win it together. If
I took anything from that interview, she don't play about
No Bill Belichick and probably a man as powerful as
(25:32):
Bill Belichick is, that's probably really difficult to find. It
really is difficult to find someone who is able to
really stand in their confidence, be who they are, feel
the way that they feel, and not feel small or
unseen or not significant in regards to who their companion is.
(25:53):
And Bill Belichick so there's probably just off of those
clips alone, there's probably a lot you can draw from
and say, yep, that's a live one, and she probably
makes Bill Belichick feel all the way alive. And I
ain't giving that up for none of y'all. You and
C you could kiss my ass, CBS, you could kiss
(26:16):
my ass any other news outlet and be clear moving forward,
y'all seem to think that y'all forgetting that this is
the Bill Belichick that was crushing media in New England.
He knows how to handle media the way that Bill
Belichick does. Y'all haven messed around and y'all didn't put
him in a position where he can't be Now, y'all
(26:37):
see why he can't be the nice guy anymore now
when he comes out and he's in a hole mode
at U and C, y'all gonna understand exactly why, because
when he gave y'all personality, he let y'all see them
show personality during his time in media while he wasn't coaching. Now,
y'all thought y'all could just come treat Bill Belichick in it.
(26:57):
This is Bill Belichick. You think you could just come
talk to Bill Belichick any old kind of way.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
You think you could do this to.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Me, You think you could do this to me, You
can't do this to Bill Belichick. And there's gonna come
a point in time that man ain't got to where
he got to being naive and being soft and getting
pushed around. Right now it appears that he's getting pushed
around by the media. You best believe he's going to
tighten it up. He's going to tighten it up. The
man is a brilliant man. So if y'all want to
(27:24):
play that game with Bill Belichick, y'all, by all means,
go ahead and play that game with him, But you're
playing with fire. It's like you, that's that guy that
plays around like you know, you know, you be standing
there and you think you got an alligator trained, and
you stand there and you put your head in his
mouth and then you put your hand on his face
and he won't hurt me. Da da da da yat
right down on your head, right down on that hand.
(27:47):
And now they doing that death role and then you
don't get it back. You don't get it back. That's
what they're doing with Bill Belichick right now.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Yeah, and then it limits your options for Halloween.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
The next year.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Hey, when that happens.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
We saw that on Tiger King, by the way, all
of a sudden somebody was missing an arm at episode
three or four.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
But hey, come here, little kite, get it, get it, get.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
It, get it.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
The thing about to Belichick's point where he to Belichick's
point in the statement, and I'm assuming it's him in
the statement where he says that you know, they selectively
chose certain parts of the interview. Look, that is a
real thing. We've seen that happen all the time, all
the time.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
And to do it all what do you mean every
sound bite we get, you do it all the time.
Now snip about two seconds, right, money, money.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
That's not me. I don't do that's we find.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
We find clips, and we try and include the context
of the clips, or at least explain the context of
the clips.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
So that's amazing.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
But when it comes to when it comes to Belichick
pointing out that CBS selectively chose clips, that does happen.
And it's why rod Listen, everybody gave Aaron Rodgers a
hard time. He sat down and did an interview with
Mena Chimes of ESPN, and she pointed out that he
brought his own recorder to the interview and hit and
hit record.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I used to do that all the time.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Yeah, of course, and you have to, especially nowadays all
the time. Like they showed like, look and this is
not trying to get political here. This happened to Trump
in an interview with one of these outlets before the election,
where they selectively chose interview like it's happened before, It's
happened to athletes, politicians, celebrities, like you only see what
(29:36):
they present to you, not the entirety of everything.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
And it's outside the lines special on concussions before and
they took one part of what I said. It's not
like I had my kids living out out back in
the in the woods, like working to survive and like
like basically the way they painted me as if I
because they took me so far out of context that
(30:02):
they they painted it like I was this neanderthal uh
football player that played defense. And I don't have any
fear for my kids health and they have to be
survivors and learn how to which, by the way, I
do raise my kids to be survivors. You know, if
they had to to, you know, get a hold of
a squirrel or a deer in the woods and had
(30:25):
to go ahead and process it and understand what Berry's
and stuff like that. In the woods. My kids do
know how to survive as survivalists. And they made it
seem like I was on some straight like on Boom
oh me me LeVar, I hit my chest like like
(30:46):
I'm one of them type dudes, right, like the one
hundred men versus a gorilla type dudes. Right. And I
had my whole I had my whole production team filming them,
and I released it on YouTube. See I was doing
stuff ahead of time, like people, I'll be ahead of
my time sometime. I released it on YouTube and said,
when the truth doesn't matter, When when the headline matters
(31:09):
more than the truth, I think is what I labeled
it on YouTube, and I posted the whole interview and
it put the whole thing in context but outside the
lines for the sake of what their storyline was. All
they needed. I did like an hour long interview with them,
and all they used was like one minute. They used
(31:30):
like one minute of my sound and it was basically
like me making it sound like I abuse my kids.
It's kind of crazy, So to your point, it's very real.
It is and it's real in print too. People already
be having their articles written, Jonas and already be having
their article written, and they will they will like guide
(31:52):
you and direct you to the one quote, the one
quote that they needed to fill into the storyline that
they already That's why I that's why I got into
media because of this stuff you're talking about right now.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
And that's why when he points that out and he
makes it clear that there was more to say. All right, look,
we understand it's awkward. It's awkward for everybody on the ad, Like,
we get all that, and North Carolina is not happy
and they're they're painting this picture of her. All this
means is that he's going to shut it down and
he's going to put the wall up. And if anybody,
(32:28):
to your point, thought they saw indirect answers and you
know him, you know, kind of navigating the waters of
gotcha questions and interviews and all that, if anybody thought
they saw that in New England, get ready buckle up,
because it's going to be on.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
Full display in Chapel Hill, like he's like this.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
And another thing too, Look, I'm never comfortable talking about
whatever anybody's relationship is and people saying, well, they're too involved,
she's too involved, that's too involved.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Look, I get it. We all know the conversations that.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Have had the same things have been had about Kelly
Stafford and others that have come up, and during the
course it's.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
A little different. But it's a little bit different.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
This whole thing. Like, who knows, maybe they they end
up getting married, and maybe they have.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
To get married, like twenty twenty five player, they don't
have to get married. Hey, maybe they don't have to
do anything different than what he's doing.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Maybe they end up, you know, they the Nantucket shoot
where he was dressed as you know, the Deadliest Catch guys.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
And yeah, and she's she's I don't know.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Maybe they're gonna they're gonna open their own charter business,
like I have no idea. And listen, if her mom,
if her mom wants to work at a sex shop,
god bless her.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
You know, that's honest work, all right. It's better than
dealing drugs, all right.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
So I mean that is the point here that should
not be you know, abandoned, is that they are being
pretty deductive together, right, They're not being they're not being
destructive towards one another we ain't heard of them, like, well,
Bill Belichick drunk her out of the room and they
were heard screaming. There were screams and things getting moved
(34:14):
around in the other room and da da dada, like
it's none of that's this is some of the most
passive aggressive ass towards a man that has had so
much success. And why because for some of y'all, y'all
looking at him like how this old ass man get
this bad ass young woman. I can't get this woman?
Why can't Why can't I get hurt? Like, oh, it's
only because he's Bill Belichick and he can coach. I
(34:36):
want to talk to him about this. Then it's the
other ones that's looking at it and they can't figure
it out. And then there's something that just might just
really be conservative simple like he's too old. He's old
enough to be her granddad. Da da da. This doesn't
sit And what's her? What's her? Is she taking advantage
of him? Is he not? All the way? There? Is it? Like?
(34:57):
What is it? This? That? And the other? Like come on, man.
He did have a moment where he kind of looked
like Mike Tyson when he was with Robin Gibbons.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Oh yeah, listen.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
He had a moment during that interview where I was
questioning myself for like one second, like is she like
does she got him on mads or something like that,
Like why is Bill just sitting here looking at this
this interviewer like uh, like what are you? What are we?
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Are you off?
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Are you off your mads? It kind of looked like
Mike Tyson when he was saying with Robin Gibbons, like
it ain't look right, like.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Yes, but that is not the point.
Speaker 3 (35:34):
But unlike Robin Gibbons, her Man was writing for him. Yeah,
shorty girl was writing. She was Hudson was writing for
Bill Belichick. Now that everybody's like looking at it in
context to Bill Belichick, Jordan Hudson was when everybody said, yeah,
she left the room and was like she was looking
at Bill Belichick like you need to come on too.
(35:56):
She's protecting them, She's protecting him, and you know what,
he should have got his ass up and walked out.
He should have walked out, and you know what the
headline had been, Jordan Jordan Hudson interrupts, The interview is
very very demanding, and and Bill Belichick followed suit Bill
(36:19):
Bell and you know what, so what, I'm gonna follow
her right on out of the room because we came
into this understanding what this was, what the interview was about.
You broke the rules, you did what we did. And
if this isn't any other type of situation, most people
get up and they and people have ended ended interviews
(36:39):
for much less, far less. Yeah, so good for them.
It is he should have got up and walked out
with Jordan.

Speaker 6 (38:10):
Are here to bring you in case you missed it.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
And for that we turn it over to our executive producer,
Lee Lap.
Speaker 7 (38:19):
Good morning everybody, Good morning, Jonas, good morning, LeVar. Guys,
In case you missed this, and I know you didn't
miss it, Jonas because it was a Cubs game. But
a scary scene at P and C Park last night
as a fan fell from the twenty one foot Clemente
wall out in the right field bottom of the seventh,
landed on his head, fractured his skull. Latest I can
(38:42):
find is that he's in critical condition. But scary scene.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
In case you missed it, out there a baseball lass
also Lee and Todd tom Well that was one of
the shirt on his shorts was really short like it
was almost like a couple of different accidents that took
place there.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
That was That was one of the reports from one
of the other fans. It was in attendance, is that
the guy was annihilated. He was pouring beer all over himself.
And then when the play happened, because the Pirates don't
score a lot of runs, he got really excited and
he jumped up out of his seat and just kind
of tumbled over the wall. And so I mean he
looked like baggage claim like when they throw luggage on
(39:20):
I swear to like, and you're watching is that real?
And then they're showing the highlights of the play, not
knowing what is happening, and you see a body on
the track, like nobody really knew immediately what was happening.
And then there's been some discussion about, well, does this
mean they're going to put.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Some protective measures up there?
Speaker 2 (39:38):
And look, Wrigley Field has baskets underneath the wall, so
there is some thought that maybe it's not the best
idea to serve drinks to somebody and have him sit
that close on a twenty one foot wall in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Could be some things changing a Major League Baseball again
based on that, Wow, keeping.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
Fan safe, you gotta be more you gotta be
Speaker 1 (40:01):
More careful, or I could just not drink as much,
you know, I'm just saying
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
How you feeling sticks?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
I feel good, man. I thought p eds were supposed
to make you you feel better, not not worse? Right?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Well, look, I wouldn't, oh I would.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I mean, how many times do you get suspended for
peds before you you get banned from from competition? Look,
I'm just killious I'm asking for a friend, and that's
all I was asking.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Some people have a habit.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I mean, I will tell you, I mean, but I do, uh,
I do want to just address, you know, obviously the
big story in the world's story on the top here,
let's do it. Let's check in live on the Los
Angeles Lakers. Smells died, So you know, Johnny, that's that's
(01:54):
a bit much here. Uh, that'll be that for the
Los Angeles Lakers. And and I don't know what you
read on the game was, but something became very obvious
to me in watching that game last night from the
get go.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
What was that Minnesota was.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Significantly better and the idea that the Lakers were favored
to win the series going into the season was laughable.
Minnesota wasn't good last night. Anthony Edwards wasn't even good.
They couldn't hit a shot. They were like six of
forty from three. At one point in the fourth quarter,
they had missed ten straight until Conley hit one from
(02:31):
the corner. Outside of Rudy Gobert and Julius Randall, Minnesota
didn't even play that well, and the Lakers weren't close.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
It wasn't like.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
They can say well, we took a lead here momentarily. Man,
they were never in that game and they came out
flat from the jump. The Timberwolves were by far and
away the better team and deserve to win it in five.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Oh Man, don't that's strong. That's a strong opinion. I
wouldn't say they weren't very good. I think they played well.
And I think that the one thing you have to
have in the NBA is complimentary basketball. That's why everybody
talks about having more than one superstar on a team.
You know, we saw so many times during Lebron's run
(03:18):
of dominance where there was a need for one or
the other two to step up, whether it was Weide
or whether it was Bosh that stepped up and came
up big for the heat. So to me, last night,
I thought it was I thought it was interesting that
(03:40):
Rudy Gobert went ham the way that he did, and
I wonder if that will we'll have him as a
threat moving forward. You gotta pay attention to him more
so now than ever after the type of performance he
had last evening. I tend to think that the way
(04:02):
they were defensing the Timberwolves, it was more perimeter driven
and it was probably more man to man driven matching
up wise, And so I wonder was it coaching, you know,
was it the scheme that allowed for Rudy Gobert to
(04:25):
have the type of game that he had, because there
were a lot of it was a lot of garbage
plays that took place. And listen, I know the basketball
purests out there will say no, no, no, it was
the players. It was the players, and some of it
was the players, some of it it was just Rudy
Gobert was able to just get a hold of the ball,
(04:46):
keep the ball alive and get garbage points. But I
just wonder was that part of the scheme because a
lot of times there was no one there when Rudy
Gobert was going to the hole to make the plays
that he made, more so than the rebounds, but to
get twenty twenty in a closeout game. They clearly wanted
(05:09):
to stop stop Anthony Edwards right like. That was clearly
the idea of it is play them on the perimeters,
and that gave him, That gave you know, Gobert the
opportunity to get to the rim, but it also gave
it also gave Julius Randall an opportunity to isolate, you know,
isolate guys at times and be able to slash at
(05:31):
times into the paint and be able to create his
own shots. So, yeah, Jonas, I thought it was I
thought it was a I actually thought it was a
pretty competitive game. I wasn't sure who was going to
win at one point, I just felt like it was
it was going to have to be. It was going
to have to be you know, Lebron obviously, but definitely
(05:56):
Luca and Luca's defense is just what people thought it was,
is what it is. They showed the Lakers GM at
one point he had the same face as the Laker
or as the used to rockets GM or not using ROCKETSCU,
the Dallas Maverick GM, the Nico Fella.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, Nico Harrison.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Look, we can say whatever we wanted, like jj W
Reddick got out coached. I mean, it does appear that
that's what happened here because there was the speculation about
what was the plan going into the fourth quarter? Why'd
you play everybody that many minutes? And he got a
little bit of a red ass and got tested. Were
tired yesterday, They were tired, and they looked tired at
(06:38):
the end of that game at the last night as
well too, and so Rudy Gobert once he found out that,
it was, Oh, you guys are just going to play
small and you're not going to play Jackson Hayes, and
this is just going to be what it's going to be. Okay,
I'll just go twenty and twenty and be the best
player on the floor all night. And it was and
like you, like, look at the final numbers, Like I said,
(07:00):
Minnesota didn't shoot. They were seven of forty seven from three.
It's like this looking like there was like there were
opportunities if the Lakers were the better team, or even
if they were close to being as good as Minnesota,
they're winning that game going away. There was every opportunity
on the table for the Lakers to win that game.
(07:23):
They aren't as good as the Timberwolves. And it's not close,
Like it isn't close. And that was like, really, I
looked at it last night and said, this is this
is pretty obvious, And it seemed pretty obvious from the jump.
Anthony Edwards spoke after the game and Aunt talked about
not only the win, taking the series in five, but
(07:43):
also what was the turning point this season for the Wolves.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You wanted everybody to be talking about the Lakers. You
saw everybody picking the Lakers. How does it feel now
to emerge from this series victorious the way that you
guys had, the way you did, and to prove those
kind of people wrong.
Speaker 5 (07:59):
You know what makes it even better is that they
said Lakers in five and the Wolves won in five.
So I think that makes it feel to times better.
That's like mama answer. I think the turning point for
us was the game when Julius came back in Phoenix.
I think that changed everything. We knew we needed them,
we was missing them and were just missing that piece.
(08:20):
Did that take them back that game too?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Talk?
Speaker 5 (08:24):
Yeah, So when they came back it kind of changed everything,
Like our whole demeanor change because we had like a
we had like a team meeting with FINCHI and the
coaches and like they got on us and they feel
like everybody responded the right way, Like everybody went and
looked in the mirror and said, you know, it's a
lot of things that I can do better for myself
to help the team instead of trying to blame somebody.
So we did that and everybody became like a grown
(08:47):
man in a sense.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
So there's your you guy, Anthony Edwards talking about listen
to some accountability.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
We got to get better. Stop pointing fingers, turning point.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Dante comes back to you, comes back, and they're off
and running U and they will be in the Western
Conference finals. They get the winner of Houston Golden State Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Will be in the finals for the Western Conference.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Uh. I think that. I guess we'll get to the
Houston Golden State one and and maybe at some point
I don't know, uh, but you know, they could be dangerous,
they could be or they could be fools gold as well.
I really like the Timberwolves. What I didn't really like
(09:34):
last night is that they were able to slow down
Anthony Atwards. I didn't. I didn't really like that a lot.
He got a double double and he almost he was
too to assist away from a triple double. Actually, but
it wasn't It wasn't an impressive showing. It wasn't like
(09:57):
this is a close out game and Anthony at Ward
was doing the deed. But again, you know, you have
a guy and Julius Randall who people may underestimate in
quite a you know, come some ways. But can really
play the game. I mean really, I think that if
(10:18):
they do make it to the Western Finals, if they
are competitive, if this is their year and they're not
fools goal, it will most likely be the contributions of
Julius Randall more so than Rudy Gobert or any other
player on the team. Michael Conley, he showed up when
he needed to, as you mentioned with that timely three,
(10:40):
He's going to have to be who he is and
not disappear when they get to the bigger games as well.
It's not going to be easy. This next round for
them will not be easy. Whichever team it is. If
it's Golden State, Golden State will have had the opportunity,
possibly foreseeably for to get healthier. I mean in a
(11:04):
way where Butler more specifically may have had more time
for his his pelvic contusion to have you know, gotten better.
And I think that's the difference right now in this series.
And I know, you know, people say you're you're so
caught up and you're so focused in on him, but
(11:27):
it's because I believe a healthy Butler on this team
gives them that added push that they need because right
now they only have a big one without Jimmy Butler
being fully you know, fully himself, and you can tell
he's out there not moving at his full potential. I
(11:48):
think if they're able to get through make it through
this this series against Houston, I think there they could
be dangerous moving forward. But I also believe that Houston
is now starting to kind of apply themselves and assert
themselves in a way where, you know, you start to
(12:09):
understand why they're so highly rated. You're you start to
realize why they had the type of season that they had,
and if their guys can continue to play, you know,
the way that they need to play, you know that.
I don't know. I think it's going to be a
super super hard road to hoe if you're if you're
(12:32):
the Grizzly uh yeah, if you're the Grizzlies. So Minnesota Timberwolves,
my bad Timberwolves. I mean, you think about it. Thompson
Thompson is a beast. Brooks is an agitator that that
can score. So that'll be interesting because they're going to
have to match that energy. Van Vliet is balling like
(12:56):
he is balling out of control right now now, and
they're just they're just so there's so many weapons on
on that team, Jalen Green. You know, there's so many
weapons that they have. They can get you in so
many different ways. Jonas, So, I think coming out of
that series, I think those are the two more dangerous teams.
(13:20):
I think they probably match up way better against the
Golden State Warriors then they do the Houston Rockets. But
I think it'll be a very very that is going
to be a very very good series. It'll be a
very competitive series. Whoever the Timberwolves end up playing against.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, I mean I listen.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I'm just trying to help people out here, Like if
they want to know what the future is going to
look like, I got it for you. It's going to
be Minnesota and it's going to be Okay, see in
the final for the Western Conference. You put that in
your Okay, spoke it. They do look good. That's why
they're favored on the DraftKings to win the NBA title.
So so that'll be that for the LA Lakers. The
(14:03):
Minnesota Timberwolves are off and running, and our fans listening
on the Yalla Horn of the Twin Cities kfan, congratulations,

Speaker 1 (15:48):
And she's all gassed out.
Speaker 7 (15:50):
Oh yeah, she's a christ and Stewart's love interest is
going for Miss Universe.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
I mean, you gook for it.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
I mean, all right, man, Like, that's a weird thing
to want to do a movie about.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
But nonetheless, all right.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
One of Lee's recommendations based on the scene we just saw,
of course, it is all right. Well listen, two pros
and a cup of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio,
and we do we've got a we've got an update
here on something that has turned into a circus. So
the latest on Bill Belichick and this whole story that
(16:32):
has just not gone well for him or his girlfriend Joe.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Let's call him perfectly well for her.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, there was some reports that came out yesterday that
she's amassed like over eight million dollars in real estate.
Her portfolio has grown ever since meeting Belichick. There was
also the New York Post did an article detailing her
acquiring these properties, and then later in the article they
pointed out that, you know, her parents ran a fishing charter,
(17:02):
a fishing business that went out of business in two thousand.
Her mom now runs a a sex toy and memorabilia shop.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
According to us. According to this article, which.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Hey, so you already know what time it is, it's
this work is sharp and reverse, Bill Belichick to be
foul in a civil suit soon.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Damn.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I told her no, it was non consensual.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
But now the there's also the the Hard Knocks component
to this. Uh, you know, leave the puns to yourself
when it comes to the sex toy conversation leading into
that name of the show. But so there was the
Hard Knocks from HBO was going to profile North Carolina,
(17:55):
and apparently the reason that that got sort of nick
they went in another direction, whatever direction that's going to be,
is because she stepped in. She wanted creative control. So
they're really painting a picture of somebody who's trying to
control everything and is really you know, Sunker Hookson to Belichick,
(18:15):
and that's sort of the conversation that is happening there.
But Belichick, following the disastrous interview that he did with CBS,
there was a statement from Belichick. We're assuming it's Belichick.
We are assuming this is Bill. A statement from Bill.
We're assuming a statement from Bill via North Carolina that
(18:39):
was sent out yesterday. And I'll read a little bit
to you here. This is from the statement quote. I
agreed to speak with CBS Sunday morning to promote my
new book, The Art of Winning, Lessons from My Life
in Football. Prior to this interview, I clearly communicated with
my publicist at Simon and Schuster that any promotional interviews
I participated in would agree to focus solely on the
content of the book. Unfortunately, that expectation was not honored
(19:03):
during the interview. I was surprised when unrelated topics were introduced,
and I repeatedly expressed to the reporter and the producers
that I preferred to keep the conversation centered on the book.
After this occurred several times, Jordan, with whom I share
both a personal and professional relationship, stepped in to reiterate
the point to help refocus the discussion. She was not
(19:24):
deflecting any specific question or topic, but simply doing her
job to ensure the interview stayed on track. Some of
the clips make it appear as though we are avoiding
the question of how we met, but we've been open
about that fact that Jordan and I met on a
flight to Palm Beach in twenty twenty one. The final
eight minute segment does not reflect the productive thirty five
(19:44):
minute conversation we had, which covered a wide range of
topics related to my career. Instead, it presents selectively edited
clips and stills from just a few minutes of the
interview to suggest a false narrative that Jordan was attempting
to control the conversation, which simply is not true. That
from Bill Belichick via North Carolina. In response to the
(20:07):
backlash and the conversation surrounding how awkward the interview was
with CBS Now, CBS did release statement of their own saying, look,
there was no preconditions on what we can and can't
talk about.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
None of that was done. We did everything on the
up and up. So there's this back and forth.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Now going on between Belichick and CBS, And here we
are and the circus tent is up and Belichick is
juggling bowling pins somewhere on a unicycle, and North Carolina
is overseeing it all, going, what the f man?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Well, I mean, he's making UNC football relevant. I mean
they're in the headlines. I mean, whether it's in indirectly
right now, it's still it still has them in the
media conversation. And listen, this isn't totally egregious. This isn't
(21:03):
like we're looking at Bill Belichick and it's like there's
this I don't know, it's not crazy craziness if you
ask me, I think it's interesting that he's dating someone
so young, but that's not for me to decide and
to judge. And for what it's worth, you know, she
(21:23):
is inserting herself pause into the situations to a very
large degree. But it seems as though it's welcomed by
Bill Belichick. It doesn't seem like it's getting on his
nerves in any way. It seems as though, if we're
looking at this at face value, she's protecting the asset,
(21:44):
and by the sounds of her portfolio growing, she would
certainly be serving herself best to make sure that the
main thing stays the main thing. You know. Obviously, if
he continues to have success, then she's going to continue
to have success. So I don't think that she's doing
anything that's going to undermine what Bill Belichick is doing.
(22:08):
In fact, I think that she's more of a watch dog.
It appears to be and listen.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Dog, how could you?
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Everybody has them? And the only reason why her watchdogging
is being focused in on and doubt in on is
because of the personal relationship. And if she was old,
if she was older, if she was closer to him
an age and didn't look the way she looks in
some of the pictures, or isn't a mermaid and he's
the Van Deicamps man or whatever it may be, then
(22:43):
you don't even have it's not even a storyline in
a way, if you really take a moment, it's kind
of it's kind of like it's some og type stuff.
Like Bill Belichick is a straight, straight in general. For
what he's got going on, I was gonna say gangster,
but I mean he is what it is, what it is,
(23:07):
he's he's a winner, he's a winner on the field.
He started anew. He has started a new venture by
going into coaching at UNC and he's taking his twenty
what is it twenty four? How old is she?
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Twenty four?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Forty one? She's twenty four. Yeah, it's crazy, man, his
twenty four year old girlfriend or partner whatever he wants
to call her, and he's brought her with him. If
you look at Bill Belichick, he's always kept his family involved, right, Yeah,
(23:45):
he's always kept his family involved. So at the end
of the day, Bill Belichick creates opportunities for the people
he cares about, and that's commendable. So he met the girl,
he cleared it up. He met the girl on flight,
so nobody won anything on any of the gambling sites
because that was not one of the options. That they
(24:06):
met on a flight to Palm Beach, which is kind
of funny. They were going to Palm Beach. I won't
touch on that, but that is kind of funny. Favorite
beach and probably Bobby Orchids too, you know, on Beach
is Florida. Anyway, I digress. I just think that when
(24:28):
you get when he knew going into this, making this
decision with her as high profile as he is, that
it's going to be a conversation. It really is going
to be a conversation. But if that man is happy
and she's happy and they're on the same page, he
doesn't hide her. You know, we haven't had any And
even if let's just say for the sake of saying,
(24:49):
some way, somehow somebody hacked into their phones or something
like that and they got a hold of like audio
and visual like what's going on with you know? Which
it wasn't hacking. Obviously this was given to Buzzby. But
just imagine if it was that type of situation scenario
where something pops up and it becomes public knowledge. I
(25:11):
don't even know that people react to it in a
way that they are with Shannon Sharp because they're incahoots.
These two are in it to win it together. If
I took anything from that interview, she don't play about
No Bill Belichick and probably a man as powerful as
(25:32):
Bill Belichick is, that's probably really difficult to find. It
really is difficult to find someone who is able to
really stand in their confidence, be who they are, feel
the way that they feel, and not feel small or
unseen or not significant in regards to who their companion is.
(25:53):
And Bill Belichick so there's probably just off of those
clips alone, there's probably a lot you can draw from
and say, yep, that's a live one, and she probably
makes Bill Belichick feel all the way alive. And I
ain't giving that up for none of y'all. You and
C you could kiss my ass, CBS, you could kiss
(26:16):
my ass any other news outlet and be clear moving forward,
y'all seem to think that y'all forgetting that this is
the Bill Belichick that was crushing media in New England.
He knows how to handle media the way that Bill
Belichick does. Y'all haven messed around and y'all didn't put
him in a position where he can't be Now, y'all
(26:37):
see why he can't be the nice guy anymore now
when he comes out and he's in a hole mode
at U and C, y'all gonna understand exactly why, because
when he gave y'all personality, he let y'all see them
show personality during his time in media while he wasn't coaching. Now,
y'all thought y'all could just come treat Bill Belichick in it.
(26:57):
This is Bill Belichick. You think you could just come
talk to Bill Belichick any old kind of way.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
You think you could do this to.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Me, You think you could do this to me, You
can't do this to Bill Belichick. And there's gonna come
a point in time that man ain't got to where
he got to being naive and being soft and getting
pushed around. Right now it appears that he's getting pushed
around by the media. You best believe he's going to
tighten it up. He's going to tighten it up. The
man is a brilliant man. So if y'all want to
(27:24):
play that game with Bill Belichick, y'all, by all means,
go ahead and play that game with him, But you're
playing with fire. It's like you, that's that guy that
plays around like you know, you know, you be standing
there and you think you got an alligator trained, and
you stand there and you put your head in his
mouth and then you put your hand on his face
and he won't hurt me. Da da da da yat
right down on your head, right down on that hand.
(27:47):
And now they doing that death role and then you
don't get it back. You don't get it back. That's
what they're doing with Bill Belichick right now.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Yeah, and then it limits your options for Halloween.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
The next year.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Hey, when that happens.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
We saw that on Tiger King, by the way, all
of a sudden somebody was missing an arm at episode
three or four.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
But hey, come here, little kite, get it, get it, get.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
It, get it.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
The thing about to Belichick's point where he to Belichick's
point in the statement, and I'm assuming it's him in
the statement where he says that you know, they selectively
chose certain parts of the interview. Look, that is a
real thing. We've seen that happen all the time, all
the time.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
And to do it all what do you mean every
sound bite we get, you do it all the time.
Now snip about two seconds, right, money, money.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
That's not me. I don't do that's we find.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
We find clips, and we try and include the context
of the clips, or at least explain the context of
the clips.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
So that's amazing.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
But when it comes to when it comes to Belichick
pointing out that CBS selectively chose clips, that does happen.
And it's why rod Listen, everybody gave Aaron Rodgers a
hard time. He sat down and did an interview with
Mena Chimes of ESPN, and she pointed out that he
brought his own recorder to the interview and hit and
hit record.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I used to do that all the time.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Yeah, of course, and you have to, especially nowadays all
the time. Like they showed like, look and this is
not trying to get political here. This happened to Trump
in an interview with one of these outlets before the election,
where they selectively chose interview like it's happened before, It's
happened to athletes, politicians, celebrities, like you only see what
(29:36):
they present to you, not the entirety of everything.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
And it's outside the lines special on concussions before and
they took one part of what I said. It's not
like I had my kids living out out back in
the in the woods, like working to survive and like
like basically the way they painted me as if I
because they took me so far out of context that
(30:02):
they they painted it like I was this neanderthal uh
football player that played defense. And I don't have any
fear for my kids health and they have to be
survivors and learn how to which, by the way, I
do raise my kids to be survivors. You know, if
they had to to, you know, get a hold of
a squirrel or a deer in the woods and had
(30:25):
to go ahead and process it and understand what Berry's
and stuff like that. In the woods. My kids do
know how to survive as survivalists. And they made it
seem like I was on some straight like on Boom
oh me me LeVar, I hit my chest like like
(30:46):
I'm one of them type dudes, right, like the one
hundred men versus a gorilla type dudes. Right. And I
had my whole I had my whole production team filming them,
and I released it on YouTube. See I was doing
stuff ahead of time, like people, I'll be ahead of
my time sometime. I released it on YouTube and said,
when the truth doesn't matter, When when the headline matters
(31:09):
more than the truth, I think is what I labeled
it on YouTube, and I posted the whole interview and
it put the whole thing in context but outside the
lines for the sake of what their storyline was. All
they needed. I did like an hour long interview with them,
and all they used was like one minute. They used
(31:30):
like one minute of my sound and it was basically
like me making it sound like I abuse my kids.
It's kind of crazy, So to your point, it's very real.
It is and it's real in print too. People already
be having their articles written, Jonas and already be having
their article written, and they will they will like guide
(31:52):
you and direct you to the one quote, the one
quote that they needed to fill into the storyline that
they already That's why I that's why I got into
media because of this stuff you're talking about right now.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
And that's why when he points that out and he
makes it clear that there was more to say. All right, look,
we understand it's awkward. It's awkward for everybody on the ad, Like,
we get all that, and North Carolina is not happy
and they're they're painting this picture of her. All this
means is that he's going to shut it down and
he's going to put the wall up. And if anybody,
(32:28):
to your point, thought they saw indirect answers and you
know him, you know, kind of navigating the waters of
gotcha questions and interviews and all that, if anybody thought
they saw that in New England, get ready buckle up,
because it's going to be on.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
Full display in Chapel Hill, like he's like this.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
And another thing too, Look, I'm never comfortable talking about
whatever anybody's relationship is and people saying, well, they're too involved,
she's too involved, that's too involved.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Look, I get it. We all know the conversations that.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Have had the same things have been had about Kelly
Stafford and others that have come up, and during the
course it's.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
A little different. But it's a little bit different.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
This whole thing. Like, who knows, maybe they they end
up getting married, and maybe they have.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
To get married, like twenty twenty five player, they don't
have to get married. Hey, maybe they don't have to
do anything different than what he's doing.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Maybe they end up, you know, they the Nantucket shoot
where he was dressed as you know, the Deadliest Catch guys.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
And yeah, and she's she's I don't know.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Maybe they're gonna they're gonna open their own charter business,
like I have no idea. And listen, if her mom,
if her mom wants to work at a sex shop,
god bless her.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
You know, that's honest work, all right. It's better than
dealing drugs, all right.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
So I mean that is the point here that should
not be you know, abandoned, is that they are being
pretty deductive together, right, They're not being they're not being
destructive towards one another we ain't heard of them, like, well,
Bill Belichick drunk her out of the room and they
were heard screaming. There were screams and things getting moved
(34:14):
around in the other room and da da dada, like
it's none of that's this is some of the most
passive aggressive ass towards a man that has had so
much success. And why because for some of y'all, y'all
looking at him like how this old ass man get
this bad ass young woman. I can't get this woman?
Why can't Why can't I get hurt? Like, oh, it's
only because he's Bill Belichick and he can coach. I
(34:36):
want to talk to him about this. Then it's the
other ones that's looking at it and they can't figure
it out. And then there's something that just might just
really be conservative simple like he's too old. He's old
enough to be her granddad. Da da da. This doesn't
sit And what's her? What's her? Is she taking advantage
of him? Is he not? All the way? There? Is it? Like?
(34:57):
What is it? This? That? And the other? Like come on, man.
He did have a moment where he kind of looked
like Mike Tyson when he was with Robin Gibbons.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Oh yeah, listen.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
He had a moment during that interview where I was
questioning myself for like one second, like is she like
does she got him on mads or something like that,
Like why is Bill just sitting here looking at this
this interviewer like uh, like what are you? What are we?
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Are you off?
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Are you off your mads? It kind of looked like
Mike Tyson when he was saying with Robin Gibbons, like
it ain't look right, like.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Yes, but that is not the point.
Speaker 3 (35:34):
But unlike Robin Gibbons, her Man was writing for him. Yeah,
shorty girl was writing. She was Hudson was writing for
Bill Belichick. Now that everybody's like looking at it in
context to Bill Belichick, Jordan Hudson was when everybody said, yeah,
she left the room and was like she was looking
at Bill Belichick like you need to come on too.
(35:56):
She's protecting them, She's protecting him, and you know what,
he should have got his ass up and walked out.
He should have walked out, and you know what the
headline had been, Jordan Jordan Hudson interrupts, The interview is
very very demanding, and and Bill Belichick followed suit Bill
(36:19):
Bell and you know what, so what, I'm gonna follow
her right on out of the room because we came
into this understanding what this was, what the interview was about.
You broke the rules, you did what we did. And
if this isn't any other type of situation, most people
get up and they and people have ended ended interviews
(36:39):
for much less, far less. Yeah, so good for them.
It is he should have got up and walked out
with Jordan.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
And for that we turn it over to our executive producer,
Lee Lap.
Speaker 7 (38:19):
Good morning everybody, Good morning, Jonas, good morning, LeVar. Guys,
In case you missed this, and I know you didn't
miss it, Jonas because it was a Cubs game. But
a scary scene at P and C Park last night
as a fan fell from the twenty one foot Clemente
wall out in the right field bottom of the seventh,
landed on his head, fractured his skull. Latest I can
(38:42):
find is that he's in critical condition. But scary scene.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
In case you missed it, out there a baseball lass
also Lee and Todd tom Well that was one of
the shirt on his shorts was really short like it
was almost like a couple of different accidents that took
place there.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
That was That was one of the reports from one
of the other fans. It was in attendance, is that
the guy was annihilated. He was pouring beer all over himself.
And then when the play happened, because the Pirates don't
score a lot of runs, he got really excited and
he jumped up out of his seat and just kind
of tumbled over the wall. And so I mean he
looked like baggage claim like when they throw luggage on
(39:20):
I swear to like, and you're watching is that real?
And then they're showing the highlights of the play, not
knowing what is happening, and you see a body on
the track, like nobody really knew immediately what was happening.
And then there's been some discussion about, well, does this
mean they're going to put.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Some protective measures up there?
Speaker 2 (39:38):
And look, Wrigley Field has baskets underneath the wall, so
there is some thought that maybe it's not the best
idea to serve drinks to somebody and have him sit
that close on a twenty one foot wall in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Could be some things changing a Major League Baseball again
based on that, Wow, keeping.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
Fan safe, you gotta be more you gotta be
Speaker 1 (40:01):
More careful, or I could just not drink as much,
you know, I'm just saying
