for you yesterday? There pal or what?
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Yes? So I found out what it was. So it's
the adult pool. It's the twenty one in overpool. You
can gamble there and everything. They have the blackjack tables
and everything set up at that pool. So that's what
it is. It's a it's an adult pool, and apparently
they allow you to be an adult.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
So you had no idea when you walked in there
that it.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Was not yesterday, but I mean not the day before,
not the first time I went over there. That's the
first time I've ever experienced anything like that.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
I didn't know that adult pool means you can just
take articles of clothings. I mean just assume, you know,
twenty one and over. I get, but I didn't know.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Was it was.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
It was just they were flying around everywhere. What do
you mean by they hammers? Yeah, hammers in the city, jackhammers,
sledge hammers, little hammers, little rock hammers, like, just hammers everywhere.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
And then uh, you a little pair of boxing gloves
for a necklace in some case.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Box and glove hammers.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Yeah, some flapjacks, leather chaps hammers.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Damn Well, listen, that seems like quite the sight. And look,
God blessed America is fourth July weekend, so this is
that seems appropriate that things are going the way they're
going in Las Vegas. There is some important news that
I did want to pass along. Well, two pieces of
important news that we did want to pass along. First
and foremost, Happy birthday, LeVar Arrington. Happy birthday. Yeah, it's
(03:36):
a big day. Happy Happy twenty fifth to LeVar Arrington,
who's celebrating nicely.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Appreciate that very much.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You got it. That was my that's my first birthday
message to you today. So I didn't leave you one
previously with any inappropriate material on it.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
But clearly you would have got suspended and you would
still be definitely suspended had you messed this one up, right.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
It is true, you.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Know, as Brady Quinn found out so quickly that you
know things can go bad when you mess up a birthday.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
That's try to miss that. Yeah, Brady's still on the show.
I just want to make that clear for everybody that
keeps asking. So Brady is still on the show. So
the first piece of news.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Wait, wait, so you're saying Brady Quinn is still on
the show.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yes, he's still on the show. Yeah. So for the
umpteenth day in a row, we've announced that that people
seem to skip you get fired for for.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Some No, you can't do that, per fect. Everybody's going
to think.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
That, Yeah, that's going to cause a problem.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
He's not been fired, He's he's still he's still around.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
So that's so the first piece of news, Happy birthday,
lebar Arrington.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yes, thank you.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Second piece of second piece of great.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
News here, Yes, Okay, you.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Hammer, it is a football Friday here on two pros
and a cup of Joe, as it always is, even
when there's no football to talk about. We actually do
have football to talk about here because we have some
speculation as to so what are these suspensions going to
(05:11):
look like in the NFL when they start handing out
some of these suspensions for players that you know, wanted
to bet on some games and all that. And we
got our answers yesterday. Isaiah Rodgers. He was the guy,
the kick returner slash defensive back for the Colts who
was trying to supplement his income for them, you know,
basically outlawing the kickoff nowadays. He was betting on Colts games. Apparently,
(05:34):
He's one of the names obviously that we heard about.
He got a year long suspension, so did Rashad Barry
also of the Colts. Demetrius Taylor, who's a free agent,
he was also suspended indefinitely, and then Titans offensive tackle
Nicholas petite Frere was also suspended six games for betting
on other sports in the workplace, so not NFL games.
(05:57):
But as we talked about yesterday, you know, a clear
differentference between betting on NFL games while you're inside the
work facility and not betting on NFL games. And I
don't know if it were some college football or what
he was into, but those are the suspensions handed out yesterday.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
But yeah, and also it also means if you're betting
on NFL, you're you're most likely going to get a
pink slip. If you're not, if you are not a
marquee name. Now I am, I am curious as to
what's going to happen when it's a big name player
that gets caught up, like are they gonna are they
(06:34):
going to release him? Because it sounds as though if that,
if that happens and you get a pink slip for
bet betting on it, or you get a you get
a suspension for betting on the NFL, you're going to
get a pink slip from the team. And and I
would assume they're they're radioactive, so for what it's worth
(06:55):
that they probably those bets may have effectively in their
careers in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah, it's and look, are you ready for some reckless
speculation here? Yes, I think I think there were bigger
names that got popped, And I don't think we'll ever
hear what those names are. The NFL doesn't want any
sort of smoke like that. Again, reckless speculation, But I
(07:24):
don't think the NFL wants the type of smoke where
a marquee player is betting over unders on some of
these games, or coin flip bets for the Super Bowl
or whatever it is. I don't think the NFL wants
any part of that. So let's go ahead, let's get
aggressive on this. Let's kind of announce a bunch of
suspensions all at once and say in a sweeping motion,
(07:46):
one sweeping motion, we've cleaned up the gambling problem in
the league. But much like other parts of sports in
which guys get popped for peds, in those sports, guys
are still getting popped for peds. I think there were
big names involved in this, and I don't think we'll
ever hear what those names are. What do you think
of that?
Speaker 4 (08:05):
I mean, it is reckless, but I don't think. I
don't think that it is inaccurate. You know, it's possible,
it is certainly possible, or it's just certainly possible. Maybe
just just make like Jonas, just maybe I'll start thinking
(08:25):
to myself, it's like Okay, we're sitting there talking about
the whole fall guideal Right, we're joking around.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Now you gotta have a.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Chris Carter conversation, like, have somebody else do it? Yeah,
I would assume the lower cash making guys like these
names that were just read off, they probably don't make
enough where they would actually trust their money in somebody
(08:52):
else's in somebody else's hands, and so they just do
the bet on their own like they don't they don't
have and maybe it isn't even a trusting Maybe it's
just like I'm not even significant or relevant enough to
have to have somebody do it for me. Nobody cares
right now. If you're if you're of of stature and
(09:15):
you're making millions, I would assume you would have somebody
play some bets for you. Yes, And I think that,
and I think that that's where the probably the difference,
the difference in all.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Of this is taking place.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
I think it is just so like you got an
issue of some sort or you're you're a weirdo if
you're even going anywhere near gambling as an active pro
pro football player. Like to me, that's that that has
not been stated, but it should be stated, I just
(09:48):
don't think there should be any any type of excuse
being being tossed out there by any type of player
as it applies to gambling.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Well as far as NFL, don't do it. Yeah, I
was just.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Don't do it, like right, exactly exactly, just.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Don't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Because Albert Breer made the point yesterday if you if
you can't figure out that you're an NFL player and
you can't bet on NFL games at this point, then
you're an idiot, like it just yes, that's really what
it is. There's here's the fascinating part about the Isaiah
Rodgers story. This is really great. All right, So this
is from ESPN. So you remember we talked about this
when it initially came out that they did some you know,
(10:30):
digging on Isaiah Rodgers and they found out he had
placed like one hundred different bets. One of them was
like a thousand dollars bet and there was so he
was like pretty active in comparison to guys like, you know,
maybe Jamison Williams or Calvin Ridley who were doing a
couple of bets here or there. But this, according to ESPN,
a source told ESPN that friends of Isaiah Rodgers, who
were in Florida, encouraged him to place many of the wagers,
(10:53):
the majority of which were in the twenty five to
fifty dollars range. Legal sports betting was not available in
Florida this past football season. The largest wager place through
the account was a one thousand dollars prop bet on
the over under on rushing yards by a Colts running back, which,
by the way, one now for me, the fact that
(11:15):
that bet hit, we should slash the suspension in half,
all right, So I'm thinking half a season because he
did win the bet, But the idea that he thought
it was appropriate to go ahead and gamble on one
of his teammates and how he performs in a game
because his buddies were giving him bad advice the entire time.
I don't know how you defend it. I really, I
(11:39):
don't know how.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
To support your team.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Man, have a teammates, right, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Pete Rose.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Pete Rose will never go into the Hall of Fame
because of the same stuff. Listen, I know that's that's
you know, all right, Reggie Bush, you get his Heisman
trophy back? Whatever, you know. I just you know, rules
are rules. That's the thing. Rule are rules, and if
you break the rules, then you've broken the rules and
you got to live with the consequences of what you did.
(12:09):
And and I just think that it's just very I
think it's very very irresponsible to be And I don't
want to be like a finger pointer. You know, we
all none of us are with without fault. But this
is a very very you can you can avoid this.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
You don't have to be that guy. You don't have
to be that person.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Like if gambling is that important to you, where you're
going to risk it, risk it all for a thousand
dollars bet, then you you know, like nature took its course.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
And who is friends?
Speaker 3 (12:53):
What you wanted?
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Who is friends? Like that that are telling him, like,
hey man, place a few of these bets, just twenty
five or fifty dollars. Don't worry about it. It's not
that big of a deal. Like wait, what it's like
telling somebody, hey man, can you go rob that bank?
If it's under a hundred bucks, They're not going to
sweat you on it.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
It's like it's like if there was this forbidden fruit
on a tree and it was just like hanging on
the tree, right, and it was like man like, you
can have everything you want, you can eat anything you want,
you do anything you want, and all you got to
do is just stay away from that tree and don't
don't eat that that that fruit on that tree.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
You know, that's all right.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
And then for some reason, it's like for some people
when you tell them don't do that, it automatically is
like it's like, you know, you remember when the judge
was tapping on the wall to try to get Roger
Rabbit to start singing. It's just for some strange reason,
(13:53):
some people can't handle it.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
They can't handle it.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
It's like it's why, you know, some women fall for
bad boys. They hear all the rumors. Don't go near him,
don't stay away from him. That's bad news. And for
some reason it just pulls you right in. Can't help it,
you know, and you would know huh yeah, well, listen,
gambling is the bad boy of the NFL, and apparently
these guys could resist you.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Had taken full advantage of that. There we go.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I'm going due, I'm going it is two pros and
a cup of Joe. Here on Fox Sports Radio, He's
LeVar Arrington, I'm Jonas Knox. She can hang out with
us again on the iHeartRadio app. We are gonna have
the usuals coming up later on here on a football Friday,
We're gonna have another edition of In case you missed it.
Speaking of gambling, we got some over unders all right,
nobody's gonna talk in a hypocritical way on this show
about gambling like us when we do over Unders coming
(14:40):
up an hour two. We got you into you out.
It's all yours again, a three hour extravaganza on a
Friday morning. But we do have ourselves a very bold statement,
a bold statement from one of the best players in
the NFL, and you'll hear it next.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Up of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Arrington and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern, three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio.
He's LeVar Arrington, I'm Jonas Knox coming up in about
twenty minutes from now from the Tyraq dot Com studios.
If you've ever wanted to be an NFL player, We've
got good news because apparently you're a lot closer and
have a lot more in common with them than you realize.
So we'll give you the details on that again coming
up twenty minutes from now here on FSR. So, LeVar
(15:32):
we were talking. We were talking yesterday, LeVar and I
about Defensive Player of the Year and Micah Parsons being
in the running. Michaeh Parsons will be in the running
for a Defensive Player of the Year for what the
next decade. Probably that's the way this is. Feels like
it's going. With Mecca.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Days healthy, he will be in the running. It keeps
the right coaching staff. Like I said, it's very important
to have the right schemes and be used the right
way in order to have the opportunity for your still
sets and your talents to be on display.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
The right way.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
So he's clearly had that in dan Quinn and so
for the foreseeable future, unless dan Quinn goes somewhere else,
I don't think that we have any reason to look
at Michael Parson and his his productions you know that
that are going to take place and not feel confident
(16:36):
that he will impact games in a way where it
leads to him being you know up for Defensive.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Player of the Year.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
So it's all about continuity, you know, if Mike has
got the continuity.
Speaker 4 (16:47):
And I think it's all of it, it's all of it.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Yeah, I think it's all of it. I know where
you're going with this, though.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
He's not going to win Defensive Player of the Year.
I mean that according to Chris Jones of the Kansas
City Chiefs. Chris Jones says he's going to win Defensive
Player of the Year. And Chris Jones has got a
way to go if you believe the odds courtesy of
our friends at DraftKings, Michael Parsons obviously the favorite, followed
by Miles Garrett, who's a little over seven to one.
(17:17):
Then we've got TJ. Watt, Nick Bosa, Max Crosby, Sauce Gardner,
Hassan Reddick, and then Chris Jones. So look, I don't
know that I don't know if Miles Garrett's a great player.
I don't know that I would put, you know, Miles
Garrett necessarily up towards that list Chris Jones would make
some sense, but the fact that he called his shot
(17:40):
leads me to believe that it's going to be anybody,
but Chris Jones. That's what it feels like.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
That's pretty that's pretty funny. Jones is.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Impactful, and there's a reason that thing.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
In the running.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
You know, he's got Patrick Mahomes, so you've got a
high power generally going to keep a team playing from behind,
and defensive players have better games when their teams are winning,
like when the team is in the league. Defensive players
just have better they have better opportunities. So, you know,
(18:24):
I don't know what that means for Miles Garrett. I
don't know what that means for for any of these
other guys, but I know for Chris Jones he's going
to benefit from that.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Do you think the fact that he's on achieves teams
that's recognized by their offense hurts him, because I think
it does. I don't think people and Chris Jones was
fantastic last year. I don't think people when they think
about Kansas City think about one of the best interior linemen,
especially outside of Aaron Donald, in the entire sport. I
think they think Mahomes, Kelsey, Andy Reid. The fact that
(18:57):
he's not an offensive player, I wonder if that goes
against him.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
They didn't give they didn't give it. They didn't give
Eric b enemy any credit. So the enemy I ain't
get no credit. But why would Chris Jones get into credit?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Yeah, it's true, that is true. I mean Harrison Bucker
won the Super Bowl for him with a kick, and
I don't think anybody was talking about Harrison Bucker afterwards.
Uh you know, so yeah, that does seem like but
it's just it is. It is interesting to see when
we're handing out awards, like sometimes you're just in a
(19:35):
spot to where look if people are thinking about your
team or your franchise in one regard and they look
it's like TJ. Watt being up high on a top
the list. That makes some sense to me because I
don't think anybody thinks about the Pittsburgh Steelers and they
think man Canny Pickett and that offense are gonna roll.
But TJ. Watt could have himself a monster year and
(19:56):
it would not be surprising to see him get a
little bit of love for that award card. Same with TJ.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Watt. Just get it. I think you did it this
past season.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
He got it into twenty twenty one. Nick Bosa is
the reigning defensive Player of the Year.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Nick Bosa.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Yeah, it's going to be hard to get it off
of guys like what and Bosa. I think just for
the simple fact that there, I think defensive Player of
the Year is being measured by ridiculous stats of game changers.
(20:33):
So if you're not getting a ridiculous amount of past
defensed balls and interceptions, interceptions for touchdowns, if you're not
doing like some ad Redon Sanders type stuff in the secondary,
you can forget being in the conversation. If you're an
(20:55):
interior lineman and you're not getting massive numbers of sacks,
you can forget it. If you're a defensive end, if
you're not getting massive numbers of sacks, you can forget it.
And so to me, I think that has that has become,
(21:18):
that has become what the defensive Player of the Year
award what it is. Unless you get like a Luke
Keigley or Patrick Willis and they're Ray Lewis, where they're
making a million tackles and they're making tackles for losses,
they're winning games with interceptions, they're winning games with tackles.
(21:41):
You're not going to see a linebacker get defensive Player
of the Year. Unless they're rushing. If they're rushing the passer,
they probably have a very good opportunity, but they don't
have as good an opportunity because they're not rushing like a.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Defensive end Wood get it in. So it's just it's complex. Yeah,
I got him though.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Yeah, that's what That's what was my point, Like, they've
got to if he's gonna get it, if they're gonna rush,
if you have n't rushed the passer, and I don't
know why they wouldn't. I mean, he's got you know,
thirteen sacks of year's first two years, thirteen and a
half last year, I believe, so he's I mean, he's
already shown that that's a skill set that he's got
that a lot of players don't the idea that they wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
But how many more sacks would he have?
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, I mean if they if.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
They were rushing him more right.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yes, Yeah. And if you go back through the history
of the award, like so obviously Nick Bosa won last year,
it was TJ. Watt before that, and then he had
Aaron Donald Stefan Gilmour won it in twenty nineteen, so
that was a defensive back and then you've got Aaron Donald,
Khalil Mack, JJ Watt, and you've got to go back
a full decade before another linebacker got it outside of TJ.
(22:53):
Watt in Luke Keigley. So it does feel like TJ.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Watt.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
He's not a linebacker, he's listed as one, like as
far as I know.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
But he's a defensive end.
Speaker 4 (23:06):
Yeah, he's a He's a three four linebacker, which is
basically in essence, it's a stand up defensive end.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Yeah, that's you grew up on three four linebackers. Look
at his Bray Steelers.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I did.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
I certainly did. If you look at if you look
at his stat line, the one stat line that you
will see that jumps out at you is his sack total.
If you look at his brother when JJ Watt won it,
if you look at his stat line, it's going to
be his sack total that jumps out at you. It's
like you get X amount of sacks you put yourself
(23:40):
in the conversation of being the defensive player of the year.
You look at Aaron Donald's sack stats during the year
that he where Aaron Donald literally was wrecking wrecking games
like he was just wrecking games. But if you look
at his sack total, you're gonna sit there and you're
gonna unders saying why he was the defensive Player of
(24:02):
the Year. It's all about getting to the quarterback.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
He had twenty and a half sacks as an interior lineman.
That's insane. He almost broke the sack record as an
interior lineman Aaron Donald, and he did it in sixteen games.
He didn't have the extra seventeenth game to do it.
Twenty and a half sacks. There you go, he's got
Aaron Donald's got.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Over That's how people are being weight.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
He's got over one hundred se He's got one hundred
and three sacks in his career as an interior lineman.
What the f man and an undersized quote unquote interior lineman.
Out of the four to one two, yes he is.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Under sacks, he is, yeah, out of four to one two.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
So yeah, So that is Chris Jones has got a
little bit of a hill to climb. He's going to
be a Defensive Player of the Year, especially if Micaeh
Parson gets after it and rushes the quarterback. Could be
a problem for Chris Jones there to win that award.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Despite what says again, stop names too. It's the Bosas,
It's the I mean, you could see a re emergence
of Khalil Mack.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
It's the TJ.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Watt like it's there are players that are you know,
look for Sasce Gardner to be in in the running
for it this year, like he may have a great
year because Aaron Rodgers may give him the opportunity to
make big plays because they may be playing from you know,
having a lead. So there's going to be opportunities for guys.
(25:30):
There are a lot of names out there, but you
can put Chris Chris, Chris Jones in that in that name,
in that group of names, because he is he's that talented.
He brings that to the table and he's got a quarterback,
he's got an offense. So the opportunity, the opportunity is there.
But there are a lot of able bodies that will
(25:53):
be vying for that that MVP position.

(26:19):
and I'm sorry up, Can I you can I ask
you a question?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Yes, of course you can ask me a question.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Mount Rushmore favorite Steelers linebackers of all time.
Speaker 5 (26:31):
I think I'd have to go I put I put
T J. Watt in there. I guess you'd man. Great,
it's a quick question. Greg Lloyd probably would be in there. Uh,
I probably have to put James Harrison in there.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Kevin Green.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
No, I don't think i'd go Kevin Green. I'd probably
have to throw Lambert in there. Okay, that's leaving awesome,
good good Jack.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Ham, now that you put it that way. Yeah, it's
really kind of insulting to make them Mount Rushmore because
they had so many great lineback That's a tough one. Yeah,
well listen, you get another great one now. Eddie got
TJ one.
Speaker 5 (27:10):
I enjoy watching him play an awful lot that's for sure.
We got some news from the NBA where James Harden
has exercised his player option for next season with the
seventy six ers. But it's not because he wants to
stay in Philadelphia. Matter of fact, the reports are that
he did this for the purpose of facilitating a trade
out of Philadelphia. Sacramento King signed fort Harrison Barnes to
a three year, forty five million dollar contract extension. By
(27:32):
the way, the start of free agency in the NBA
is today at six pm Eastern time. NFL News, Colts
players AAA Rodgers and Rashad Berry and free agent de
Mary's Taylor have been suspended and definitely for placing bets
on NFL games in twenty twenty two. The Colts have
announced that they are releasing Rodgers and Barry. Titans offensive
tackle Nicholas Police Pattie Ferrer six games suspension for betting
on non NFL games while at the team's facility, and
(27:54):
Jaguars starting left tackle Cam Robinson gets a four game
suspension for violating the league's performance enancing drug policy. Now
back to Lamar Arrington and Jonas Knox in the tirect
dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Thanks Eddie, two pros and a cup of Joe here
on Fox Sports Radio. By the way, lead to lap
and I were trying to figure out who won the match.
It was Mahomes and Kelsey, right, they beat uh and
they were the underdogs, weren't they? For you degenerate flunky
gamblers who like betting on exhibition golf tournaments. They beat
Steph Curry and Clay Thompson. How about that. Welcome to June,
(28:25):
Welcome to June for the world of sports that we like.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Bro, you would have thought you would have thought there
was a KC game here.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Oh really?
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Oh yeah, you would have thought they were playing the Raiders.
There was so there were so many Chiefs.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Fans here for a golf game.
Speaker 4 (28:44):
Bro, Chiefs. It was a sea of Rid walking around
the win yesterday.
Speaker 6 (28:50):
No Warriors jerseys.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
I didn't see no Warrior jerseys. I just saw a
whole bunch of Rid. They were walking around like it
was game day on everything.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Well, I mean, in fairness, they've got to do that
because they probably can't afford to go all the way
to Germany because the NFL ripped a home game away
from them and put it overseas.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
So there you go.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
I'm just saying, so they got to go out to
Vegas to watch their their best players play golf against
Steph Curry and Klay Thompson. I wonder if Steph Curry
and Klay Thompson, who played golf all the time, are
going to get ridiculed by other players in the NBA
because they lost. Wonder if that's gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
Well, you did come up short against the better athletes.
You know, there's always the debate as to who's better.
Basketball players are taller, of course, but better athletes. I
would I would debate, Yeah, I would debate it.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
So there you go, we prove that we're better.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Yeah, put that in your pipes and smoke it, you
know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
All right, So it is Two Pros and a Cup
of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio. Coming up, We're
going to tell you why you've got more in common
with an NFL player than you actually realized. That's next.

Speaker 6 (32:00):
D Lot Fellas and Casey miss It. Good morning everybody.
Speaker 8 (32:03):
We had talked yesterday about Travis kelce Travis kelt sees
feature with Vanity Fair Easy for the.
Speaker 6 (32:12):
Jonas, Good morning, LeVar.
Speaker 8 (32:13):
We talked about Travis Kelcey's mixed feelings about possibly being
underpaid by the Kansas City Chiefs. Well in that Vanity
Fair feature, he had also talked about cannabis use in
the league and he estimates about between fifty and eighty
percent of active players use cannabis.
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Does this surprise you?
Speaker 1 (32:31):
How about that, LeVar? How about that you got you guys, that's.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
A high percentage. I will say, that's a high percentage.
Don't do too much, too hot?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
What do you think is more realistic?
Speaker 4 (32:42):
I think he might be right if he went with
fifty eighty percent is too high?
Speaker 1 (32:47):
What was the percentage back when you played? Would you say?
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Probably saying.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
A lot of people want me to say a lot
of people walking around that hippie lettuce, you know, the
hippie left handed cigarette.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
I mean, people smoke, man. Everybody doesn't want to use opioids. Man.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
They use different ways to address their pain.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
You know, self medicate, you smoke weed, don't you well?
Speaker 3 (33:14):
Go ahead and jump.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Yeah, eighty percent seems like that's that's quite that's quite
a lot now. I mean, I guess the follow up
question would be, did he just without knowing it out
several of his teammates because that might be based himself. Yeah,
that might be based on just his own experience in
his locker.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Room and his and his mind. It's eighty percent because
he smoked, Like.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Like what happens to Kansas City? They open up the
locker room, door, like a cloud of wet smoke pops out.
That's a man. What are they doing inside there? Everybody's
half baked? Like I mean, I just wonder if he
maybe outed some people that didn't want to be outed there.
You know, now they're not kind of problem.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
But well, his count, if it's true, he's out at
eighty percent of the NFL.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
And he was also saying that, you know, because the testing,
as long as you stop by July, you're fine. Right,
That's what I found out.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
I'm not going to get into all of those details.
Why not because.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
And that is what Kelsey's so abanity fair article.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
I'm so I'm so shocked that the league hasn't caught
on to the fact, or maybe they are aware of
the fact that they give guys the opportunity to smoke
by doing it the.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Way that they do it.
Speaker 4 (34:35):
It's just it's really like, just don't get in a program.
If you stay out of the program, you can pretty
much do what you want to do. If you're in
the program, you're screwed.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
And so when you when you see why am I
blanket on his name? Josh Gordon, Yeah, Josh Gordon. When
you see how many times he got he got popped.
He just wasn't taking it all the way through.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
This is well, just we It's just we meant more.
It's like a gambling conversation we had. It's just the
weed at the gambling. It just meant more. The we
meant more to Josh Gordon than having a job in
the NFL.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Got to walk that greenwolf, you know, gotta make a dance.
The way this works, we.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
Got to have the funds to get it, though, I
guess I don't know.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Whatever it is?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
What else is?
Speaker 1 (35:23):
What else? We got?
Speaker 8 (35:24):
Lee guys, In case you've missed it, on the show,
we've talked about Ja Morant's you know, recent troubles. He's
claimed that it was a lighter gun, you know, a
flame lighter gun that he was using in that famed video. Well,
in a deposition made to authorities his associate DeVante Pack.
This was a deposition made when a teenager was assaulted
(35:47):
in Ja Morant's house back in twenty twenty two. DeVante
Pack claims that Ja Morant does in fact own a
clock forty, so, you know, just looking out for his buddy.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
There, how about that? Though, Like that's called value in life,
you know, like this weekend, fourth of July, there's a
lot of like, you know, Ribi value packs. You can
buy its supermarkets because it's fourth of July weekend. How
about a value pack you buy a glock forty. It
doubles as a lighter. That's something, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
It's definitely a lighter. It could be a toaster, it whatever.
Speaker 6 (36:23):
It's also a laptop.
Speaker 3 (36:26):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Yeah, it could be a toaster, it could be uh,
it could be uh, you know, an electric chair.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
Different things.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Yeah, some people would say when you use them guns,
you lighten somebody up.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
So it could be a shovel. It's a lighter doubles
as a shovel.
Speaker 4 (36:50):
Some people call it wrench, some people call it hammer.
So I could see how he would say it was
a lighter that you know it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
A real gun.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Hey man, John Moran's got to get better friends. This
is not ideal.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
How about job?
Speaker 4 (37:09):
How about John Moran needs to just do better for himself.
Let's start there. You use self accountability a lot of times,
like this is a pure self accountability situation, and.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
He's missing what is the twenty five games? Little twenty
five games knocked off? Next season for the Memphis Grizzlies.
Speaker 4 (37:30):
But what happens if he does it for a third tap?
Speaker 1 (37:34):
Oh? God, got to be a year, right, I would see.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
I would have thought this one would have been.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Although, although if you do it for a third time,
do you reward the inability to recognize your flaws by saying,
you know what, we'll give you back pay because there's
nothing we can do to help this. You know, I'll
tell you what we'll give We'll give you all the
back pay from the games you were suspended. You clearly
don't get it, and we admire the fact that you
don't get it and inability to get it. And so
(38:02):
maybe Adam Silver just you know, writes him a big
fat paycheck and says, you know what, do what you
gotta do. I respect your hustle, and I respect your
commitment to walking around with hand cannons on video. Maybe
that's what it is. What else, that's what it is?
Speaker 6 (38:16):
Guys? We had mentioned TJ Watt, Well, how about JJ Watt?
Speaker 8 (38:19):
And has just announced that he has signed a multi
year deal with CBS Sports to become a studio analyst.
This will start Week one, twenty twenty three season.
Speaker 4 (38:27):
All right, A little JJ Watt.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Do you prefer LeVar You've obviously done both. I haven't
because nobody invites me to these things. Do you prefer
doing studio analyst work or calling games?
Speaker 4 (38:46):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (38:48):
Calling games was fun.
Speaker 4 (38:50):
I ain't gonna love, but I've historically I do studio,
so I enjoyed studio. I think they're uh h.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Yeah, I feel like I go with studio.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
There's not a lot of defensive players that I can
think of off the top of my head that are
that are color announcers like Adam Archalletta is one of them,
and I know there's some out there, but you know,
it would be nice to get a defensive guy in
the booth, you know, from time to time, I don't know,
it's all offensive players seemingly so good for J. J. Watt,
you know, maybe he'll.

for you yesterday? There pal or what?
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Yes? So I found out what it was. So it's
the adult pool. It's the twenty one in overpool. You
can gamble there and everything. They have the blackjack tables
and everything set up at that pool. So that's what
it is. It's a it's an adult pool, and apparently
they allow you to be an adult.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
So you had no idea when you walked in there
that it.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Was not yesterday, but I mean not the day before,
not the first time I went over there. That's the
first time I've ever experienced anything like that.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
I didn't know that adult pool means you can just
take articles of clothings. I mean just assume, you know,
twenty one and over. I get, but I didn't know.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Was it was.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
It was just they were flying around everywhere. What do
you mean by they hammers? Yeah, hammers in the city, jackhammers,
sledge hammers, little hammers, little rock hammers, like, just hammers everywhere.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
And then uh, you a little pair of boxing gloves
for a necklace in some case.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Box and glove hammers.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Yeah, some flapjacks, leather chaps hammers.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Damn Well, listen, that seems like quite the sight. And look,
God blessed America is fourth July weekend, so this is
that seems appropriate that things are going the way they're
going in Las Vegas. There is some important news that
I did want to pass along. Well, two pieces of
important news that we did want to pass along. First
and foremost, Happy birthday, LeVar Arrington. Happy birthday. Yeah, it's
(03:36):
a big day. Happy Happy twenty fifth to LeVar Arrington,
who's celebrating nicely.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Appreciate that very much.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You got it. That was my that's my first birthday
message to you today. So I didn't leave you one
previously with any inappropriate material on it.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
But clearly you would have got suspended and you would
still be definitely suspended had you messed this one up, right.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
It is true, you.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Know, as Brady Quinn found out so quickly that you
know things can go bad when you mess up a birthday.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
That's try to miss that. Yeah, Brady's still on the show.
I just want to make that clear for everybody that
keeps asking. So Brady is still on the show. So
the first piece of news.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Wait, wait, so you're saying Brady Quinn is still on
the show.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yes, he's still on the show. Yeah. So for the
umpteenth day in a row, we've announced that that people
seem to skip you get fired for for.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Some No, you can't do that, per fect. Everybody's going
to think.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
That, Yeah, that's going to cause a problem.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
He's not been fired, He's he's still he's still around.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
So that's so the first piece of news, Happy birthday,
lebar Arrington.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yes, thank you.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Second piece of second piece of great.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
News here, Yes, Okay, you.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Hammer, it is a football Friday here on two pros
and a cup of Joe, as it always is, even
when there's no football to talk about. We actually do
have football to talk about here because we have some
speculation as to so what are these suspensions going to
(05:11):
look like in the NFL when they start handing out
some of these suspensions for players that you know, wanted
to bet on some games and all that. And we
got our answers yesterday. Isaiah Rodgers. He was the guy,
the kick returner slash defensive back for the Colts who
was trying to supplement his income for them, you know,
basically outlawing the kickoff nowadays. He was betting on Colts games. Apparently,
(05:34):
He's one of the names obviously that we heard about.
He got a year long suspension, so did Rashad Barry
also of the Colts. Demetrius Taylor, who's a free agent,
he was also suspended indefinitely, and then Titans offensive tackle
Nicholas petite Frere was also suspended six games for betting
on other sports in the workplace, so not NFL games.
(05:57):
But as we talked about yesterday, you know, a clear
differentference between betting on NFL games while you're inside the
work facility and not betting on NFL games. And I
don't know if it were some college football or what
he was into, but those are the suspensions handed out yesterday.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
But yeah, and also it also means if you're betting
on NFL, you're you're most likely going to get a
pink slip. If you're not, if you are not a
marquee name. Now I am, I am curious as to
what's going to happen when it's a big name player
that gets caught up, like are they gonna are they
(06:34):
going to release him? Because it sounds as though if that,
if that happens and you get a pink slip for
bet betting on it, or you get a you get
a suspension for betting on the NFL, you're going to
get a pink slip from the team. And and I
would assume they're they're radioactive, so for what it's worth
(06:55):
that they probably those bets may have effectively in their
careers in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah, it's and look, are you ready for some reckless
speculation here? Yes, I think I think there were bigger
names that got popped, And I don't think we'll ever
hear what those names are. The NFL doesn't want any
sort of smoke like that. Again, reckless speculation, But I
(07:24):
don't think the NFL wants the type of smoke where
a marquee player is betting over unders on some of
these games, or coin flip bets for the Super Bowl
or whatever it is. I don't think the NFL wants
any part of that. So let's go ahead, let's get
aggressive on this. Let's kind of announce a bunch of
suspensions all at once and say in a sweeping motion,
(07:46):
one sweeping motion, we've cleaned up the gambling problem in
the league. But much like other parts of sports in
which guys get popped for peds, in those sports, guys
are still getting popped for peds. I think there were
big names involved in this, and I don't think we'll
ever hear what those names are. What do you think
of that?
Speaker 4 (08:05):
I mean, it is reckless, but I don't think. I
don't think that it is inaccurate. You know, it's possible,
it is certainly possible, or it's just certainly possible. Maybe
just just make like Jonas, just maybe I'll start thinking
(08:25):
to myself, it's like Okay, we're sitting there talking about
the whole fall guideal Right, we're joking around.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Now you gotta have a.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Chris Carter conversation, like, have somebody else do it? Yeah,
I would assume the lower cash making guys like these
names that were just read off, they probably don't make
enough where they would actually trust their money in somebody
(08:52):
else's in somebody else's hands, and so they just do
the bet on their own like they don't they don't
have and maybe it isn't even a trusting Maybe it's
just like I'm not even significant or relevant enough to
have to have somebody do it for me. Nobody cares
right now. If you're if you're of of stature and
(09:15):
you're making millions, I would assume you would have somebody
play some bets for you. Yes, And I think that,
and I think that that's where the probably the difference,
the difference in all.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Of this is taking place.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
I think it is just so like you got an
issue of some sort or you're you're a weirdo if
you're even going anywhere near gambling as an active pro
pro football player. Like to me, that's that that has
not been stated, but it should be stated, I just
(09:48):
don't think there should be any any type of excuse
being being tossed out there by any type of player
as it applies to gambling.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Well as far as NFL, don't do it. Yeah, I
was just.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Don't do it, like right, exactly exactly, just.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Don't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Because Albert Breer made the point yesterday if you if
you can't figure out that you're an NFL player and
you can't bet on NFL games at this point, then
you're an idiot, like it just yes, that's really what
it is. There's here's the fascinating part about the Isaiah
Rodgers story. This is really great. All right, So this
is from ESPN. So you remember we talked about this
when it initially came out that they did some you know,
(10:30):
digging on Isaiah Rodgers and they found out he had
placed like one hundred different bets. One of them was
like a thousand dollars bet and there was so he
was like pretty active in comparison to guys like, you know,
maybe Jamison Williams or Calvin Ridley who were doing a
couple of bets here or there. But this, according to ESPN,
a source told ESPN that friends of Isaiah Rodgers, who
were in Florida, encouraged him to place many of the wagers,
(10:53):
the majority of which were in the twenty five to
fifty dollars range. Legal sports betting was not available in
Florida this past football season. The largest wager place through
the account was a one thousand dollars prop bet on
the over under on rushing yards by a Colts running back, which,
by the way, one now for me, the fact that
(11:15):
that bet hit, we should slash the suspension in half,
all right, So I'm thinking half a season because he
did win the bet, But the idea that he thought
it was appropriate to go ahead and gamble on one
of his teammates and how he performs in a game
because his buddies were giving him bad advice the entire time.
I don't know how you defend it. I really, I
(11:39):
don't know how.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
To support your team.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Man, have a teammates, right, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Pete Rose.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Pete Rose will never go into the Hall of Fame
because of the same stuff. Listen, I know that's that's
you know, all right, Reggie Bush, you get his Heisman
trophy back? Whatever, you know. I just you know, rules
are rules. That's the thing. Rule are rules, and if
you break the rules, then you've broken the rules and
you got to live with the consequences of what you did.
(12:09):
And and I just think that it's just very I
think it's very very irresponsible to be And I don't
want to be like a finger pointer. You know, we
all none of us are with without fault. But this
is a very very you can you can avoid this.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
You don't have to be that guy. You don't have
to be that person.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Like if gambling is that important to you, where you're
going to risk it, risk it all for a thousand
dollars bet, then you you know, like nature took its course.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
And who is friends?
Speaker 3 (12:53):
What you wanted?
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Who is friends? Like that that are telling him, like,
hey man, place a few of these bets, just twenty
five or fifty dollars. Don't worry about it. It's not
that big of a deal. Like wait, what it's like
telling somebody, hey man, can you go rob that bank?
If it's under a hundred bucks, They're not going to
sweat you on it.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
It's like it's like if there was this forbidden fruit
on a tree and it was just like hanging on
the tree, right, and it was like man like, you
can have everything you want, you can eat anything you want,
you do anything you want, and all you got to
do is just stay away from that tree and don't
don't eat that that that fruit on that tree.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
You know, that's all right.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
And then for some reason, it's like for some people
when you tell them don't do that, it automatically is
like it's like, you know, you remember when the judge
was tapping on the wall to try to get Roger
Rabbit to start singing. It's just for some strange reason,
(13:53):
some people can't handle it.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
They can't handle it.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
It's like it's why, you know, some women fall for
bad boys. They hear all the rumors. Don't go near him,
don't stay away from him. That's bad news. And for
some reason it just pulls you right in. Can't help it,
you know, and you would know huh yeah, well, listen,
gambling is the bad boy of the NFL, and apparently
these guys could resist you.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Had taken full advantage of that. There we go.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I'm going due, I'm going it is two pros and
a cup of Joe. Here on Fox Sports Radio, He's
LeVar Arrington, I'm Jonas Knox. She can hang out with
us again on the iHeartRadio app. We are gonna have
the usuals coming up later on here on a football Friday,
We're gonna have another edition of In case you missed it.
Speaking of gambling, we got some over unders all right,
nobody's gonna talk in a hypocritical way on this show
about gambling like us when we do over Unders coming
(14:40):
up an hour two. We got you into you out.
It's all yours again, a three hour extravaganza on a
Friday morning. But we do have ourselves a very bold statement,
a bold statement from one of the best players in
the NFL, and you'll hear it next.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Up of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Arrington and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern, three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio.
He's LeVar Arrington, I'm Jonas Knox coming up in about
twenty minutes from now from the Tyraq dot Com studios.
If you've ever wanted to be an NFL player, We've
got good news because apparently you're a lot closer and
have a lot more in common with them than you realize.
So we'll give you the details on that again coming
up twenty minutes from now here on FSR. So, LeVar
(15:32):
we were talking. We were talking yesterday, LeVar and I
about Defensive Player of the Year and Micah Parsons being
in the running. Michaeh Parsons will be in the running
for a Defensive Player of the Year for what the
next decade. Probably that's the way this is. Feels like
it's going. With Mecca.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Days healthy, he will be in the running. It keeps
the right coaching staff. Like I said, it's very important
to have the right schemes and be used the right
way in order to have the opportunity for your still
sets and your talents to be on display.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
The right way.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
So he's clearly had that in dan Quinn and so
for the foreseeable future, unless dan Quinn goes somewhere else,
I don't think that we have any reason to look
at Michael Parson and his his productions you know that
that are going to take place and not feel confident
(16:36):
that he will impact games in a way where it
leads to him being you know up for Defensive.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Player of the Year.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
So it's all about continuity, you know, if Mike has
got the continuity.
Speaker 4 (16:47):
And I think it's all of it, it's all of it.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Yeah, I think it's all of it. I know where
you're going with this, though.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
He's not going to win Defensive Player of the Year.
I mean that according to Chris Jones of the Kansas
City Chiefs. Chris Jones says he's going to win Defensive
Player of the Year. And Chris Jones has got a
way to go if you believe the odds courtesy of
our friends at DraftKings, Michael Parsons obviously the favorite, followed
by Miles Garrett, who's a little over seven to one.
(17:17):
Then we've got TJ. Watt, Nick Bosa, Max Crosby, Sauce Gardner,
Hassan Reddick, and then Chris Jones. So look, I don't
know that I don't know if Miles Garrett's a great player.
I don't know that I would put, you know, Miles
Garrett necessarily up towards that list Chris Jones would make
some sense, but the fact that he called his shot
(17:40):
leads me to believe that it's going to be anybody,
but Chris Jones. That's what it feels like.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
That's pretty that's pretty funny. Jones is.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Impactful, and there's a reason that thing.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
In the running.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
You know, he's got Patrick Mahomes, so you've got a
high power generally going to keep a team playing from behind,
and defensive players have better games when their teams are winning,
like when the team is in the league. Defensive players
just have better they have better opportunities. So, you know,
(18:24):
I don't know what that means for Miles Garrett. I
don't know what that means for for any of these
other guys, but I know for Chris Jones he's going
to benefit from that.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Do you think the fact that he's on achieves teams
that's recognized by their offense hurts him, because I think
it does. I don't think people and Chris Jones was
fantastic last year. I don't think people when they think
about Kansas City think about one of the best interior linemen,
especially outside of Aaron Donald, in the entire sport. I
think they think Mahomes, Kelsey, Andy Reid. The fact that
(18:57):
he's not an offensive player, I wonder if that goes
against him.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
They didn't give they didn't give it. They didn't give
Eric b enemy any credit. So the enemy I ain't
get no credit. But why would Chris Jones get into credit?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Yeah, it's true, that is true. I mean Harrison Bucker
won the Super Bowl for him with a kick, and
I don't think anybody was talking about Harrison Bucker afterwards.
Uh you know, so yeah, that does seem like but
it's just it is. It is interesting to see when
we're handing out awards, like sometimes you're just in a
(19:35):
spot to where look if people are thinking about your
team or your franchise in one regard and they look
it's like TJ. Watt being up high on a top
the list. That makes some sense to me because I
don't think anybody thinks about the Pittsburgh Steelers and they
think man Canny Pickett and that offense are gonna roll.
But TJ. Watt could have himself a monster year and
(19:56):
it would not be surprising to see him get a
little bit of love for that award card. Same with TJ.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Watt. Just get it. I think you did it this
past season.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
He got it into twenty twenty one. Nick Bosa is
the reigning defensive Player of the Year.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Nick Bosa.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Yeah, it's going to be hard to get it off
of guys like what and Bosa. I think just for
the simple fact that there, I think defensive Player of
the Year is being measured by ridiculous stats of game changers.
(20:33):
So if you're not getting a ridiculous amount of past
defensed balls and interceptions, interceptions for touchdowns, if you're not
doing like some ad Redon Sanders type stuff in the secondary,
you can forget being in the conversation. If you're an
(20:55):
interior lineman and you're not getting massive numbers of sacks,
you can forget it. If you're a defensive end, if
you're not getting massive numbers of sacks, you can forget it.
And so to me, I think that has that has become,
(21:18):
that has become what the defensive Player of the Year
award what it is. Unless you get like a Luke
Keigley or Patrick Willis and they're Ray Lewis, where they're
making a million tackles and they're making tackles for losses,
they're winning games with interceptions, they're winning games with tackles.
(21:41):
You're not going to see a linebacker get defensive Player
of the Year. Unless they're rushing. If they're rushing the passer,
they probably have a very good opportunity, but they don't
have as good an opportunity because they're not rushing like a.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Defensive end Wood get it in. So it's just it's complex. Yeah,
I got him though.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Yeah, that's what That's what was my point, Like, they've
got to if he's gonna get it, if they're gonna rush,
if you have n't rushed the passer, and I don't
know why they wouldn't. I mean, he's got you know,
thirteen sacks of year's first two years, thirteen and a
half last year, I believe, so he's I mean, he's
already shown that that's a skill set that he's got
that a lot of players don't the idea that they wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
But how many more sacks would he have?
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, I mean if they if.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
They were rushing him more right.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yes, Yeah. And if you go back through the history
of the award, like so obviously Nick Bosa won last year,
it was TJ. Watt before that, and then he had
Aaron Donald Stefan Gilmour won it in twenty nineteen, so
that was a defensive back and then you've got Aaron Donald,
Khalil Mack, JJ Watt, and you've got to go back
a full decade before another linebacker got it outside of TJ.
(22:53):
Watt in Luke Keigley. So it does feel like TJ.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Watt.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
He's not a linebacker, he's listed as one, like as
far as I know.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
But he's a defensive end.
Speaker 4 (23:06):
Yeah, he's a He's a three four linebacker, which is
basically in essence, it's a stand up defensive end.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Yeah, that's you grew up on three four linebackers. Look
at his Bray Steelers.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I did.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
I certainly did. If you look at if you look
at his stat line, the one stat line that you
will see that jumps out at you is his sack total.
If you look at his brother when JJ Watt won it,
if you look at his stat line, it's going to
be his sack total that jumps out at you. It's
like you get X amount of sacks you put yourself
(23:40):
in the conversation of being the defensive player of the year.
You look at Aaron Donald's sack stats during the year
that he where Aaron Donald literally was wrecking wrecking games
like he was just wrecking games. But if you look
at his sack total, you're gonna sit there and you're
gonna unders saying why he was the defensive Player of
(24:02):
the Year. It's all about getting to the quarterback.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
He had twenty and a half sacks as an interior lineman.
That's insane. He almost broke the sack record as an
interior lineman Aaron Donald, and he did it in sixteen games.
He didn't have the extra seventeenth game to do it.
Twenty and a half sacks. There you go, he's got
Aaron Donald's got.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Over That's how people are being weight.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
He's got over one hundred se He's got one hundred
and three sacks in his career as an interior lineman.
What the f man and an undersized quote unquote interior lineman.
Out of the four to one two, yes he is.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Under sacks, he is, yeah, out of four to one two.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
So yeah, So that is Chris Jones has got a
little bit of a hill to climb. He's going to
be a Defensive Player of the Year, especially if Micaeh
Parson gets after it and rushes the quarterback. Could be
a problem for Chris Jones there to win that award.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Despite what says again, stop names too. It's the Bosas,
It's the I mean, you could see a re emergence
of Khalil Mack.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
It's the TJ.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Watt like it's there are players that are you know,
look for Sasce Gardner to be in in the running
for it this year, like he may have a great
year because Aaron Rodgers may give him the opportunity to
make big plays because they may be playing from you know,
having a lead. So there's going to be opportunities for guys.
(25:30):
There are a lot of names out there, but you
can put Chris Chris, Chris Jones in that in that name,
in that group of names, because he is he's that talented.
He brings that to the table and he's got a quarterback,
he's got an offense. So the opportunity, the opportunity is there.
But there are a lot of able bodies that will
(25:53):
be vying for that that MVP position.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
It's two Pros and a Cup of Joe here on

(26:19):
and I'm sorry up, Can I you can I ask
you a question?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Yes, of course you can ask me a question.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Mount Rushmore favorite Steelers linebackers of all time.
Speaker 5 (26:31):
I think I'd have to go I put I put
T J. Watt in there. I guess you'd man. Great,
it's a quick question. Greg Lloyd probably would be in there. Uh,
I probably have to put James Harrison in there.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Kevin Green.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
No, I don't think i'd go Kevin Green. I'd probably
have to throw Lambert in there. Okay, that's leaving awesome,
good good Jack.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Ham, now that you put it that way. Yeah, it's
really kind of insulting to make them Mount Rushmore because
they had so many great lineback That's a tough one. Yeah,
well listen, you get another great one now. Eddie got
TJ one.
Speaker 5 (27:10):
I enjoy watching him play an awful lot that's for sure.
We got some news from the NBA where James Harden
has exercised his player option for next season with the
seventy six ers. But it's not because he wants to
stay in Philadelphia. Matter of fact, the reports are that
he did this for the purpose of facilitating a trade
out of Philadelphia. Sacramento King signed fort Harrison Barnes to
a three year, forty five million dollar contract extension. By
(27:32):
the way, the start of free agency in the NBA
is today at six pm Eastern time. NFL News, Colts
players AAA Rodgers and Rashad Berry and free agent de
Mary's Taylor have been suspended and definitely for placing bets
on NFL games in twenty twenty two. The Colts have
announced that they are releasing Rodgers and Barry. Titans offensive
tackle Nicholas Police Pattie Ferrer six games suspension for betting
on non NFL games while at the team's facility, and
(27:54):
Jaguars starting left tackle Cam Robinson gets a four game
suspension for violating the league's performance enancing drug policy. Now
back to Lamar Arrington and Jonas Knox in the tirect
dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Thanks Eddie, two pros and a cup of Joe here
on Fox Sports Radio. By the way, lead to lap
and I were trying to figure out who won the match.
It was Mahomes and Kelsey, right, they beat uh and
they were the underdogs, weren't they? For you degenerate flunky
gamblers who like betting on exhibition golf tournaments. They beat
Steph Curry and Clay Thompson. How about that. Welcome to June,
(28:25):
Welcome to June for the world of sports that we like.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Bro, you would have thought you would have thought there
was a KC game here.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Oh really?
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Oh yeah, you would have thought they were playing the Raiders.
There was so there were so many Chiefs.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Fans here for a golf game.
Speaker 4 (28:44):
Bro, Chiefs. It was a sea of Rid walking around
the win yesterday.
Speaker 6 (28:50):
No Warriors jerseys.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
I didn't see no Warrior jerseys. I just saw a
whole bunch of Rid. They were walking around like it
was game day on everything.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Well, I mean, in fairness, they've got to do that
because they probably can't afford to go all the way
to Germany because the NFL ripped a home game away
from them and put it overseas.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
So there you go.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
I'm just saying, so they got to go out to
Vegas to watch their their best players play golf against
Steph Curry and Klay Thompson. I wonder if Steph Curry
and Klay Thompson, who played golf all the time, are
going to get ridiculed by other players in the NBA
because they lost. Wonder if that's gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
Well, you did come up short against the better athletes.
You know, there's always the debate as to who's better.
Basketball players are taller, of course, but better athletes. I
would I would debate, Yeah, I would debate it.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
So there you go, we prove that we're better.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Yeah, put that in your pipes and smoke it, you
know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
All right, So it is Two Pros and a Cup

Speaker 8 (32:03):
We had talked yesterday about Travis kelce Travis kelt sees
feature with Vanity Fair Easy for the.
Speaker 6 (32:12):
Jonas, Good morning, LeVar.
Speaker 8 (32:13):
We talked about Travis Kelcey's mixed feelings about possibly being
underpaid by the Kansas City Chiefs. Well in that Vanity
Fair feature, he had also talked about cannabis use in
the league and he estimates about between fifty and eighty
percent of active players use cannabis.
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Does this surprise you?
Speaker 1 (32:31):
How about that, LeVar? How about that you got you guys, that's.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
A high percentage. I will say, that's a high percentage.
Don't do too much, too hot?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
What do you think is more realistic?
Speaker 4 (32:42):
I think he might be right if he went with
fifty eighty percent is too high?
Speaker 1 (32:47):
What was the percentage back when you played? Would you say?
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Probably saying.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
A lot of people want me to say a lot
of people walking around that hippie lettuce, you know, the
hippie left handed cigarette.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
I mean, people smoke, man. Everybody doesn't want to use opioids. Man.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
They use different ways to address their pain.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
You know, self medicate, you smoke weed, don't you well?
Speaker 3 (33:14):
Go ahead and jump.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Yeah, eighty percent seems like that's that's quite that's quite
a lot now. I mean, I guess the follow up
question would be, did he just without knowing it out
several of his teammates because that might be based himself. Yeah,
that might be based on just his own experience in
his locker.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Room and his and his mind. It's eighty percent because
he smoked, Like.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Like what happens to Kansas City? They open up the
locker room, door, like a cloud of wet smoke pops out.
That's a man. What are they doing inside there? Everybody's
half baked? Like I mean, I just wonder if he
maybe outed some people that didn't want to be outed there.
You know, now they're not kind of problem.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
But well, his count, if it's true, he's out at
eighty percent of the NFL.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
And he was also saying that, you know, because the testing,
as long as you stop by July, you're fine. Right,
That's what I found out.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
I'm not going to get into all of those details.
Why not because.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
And that is what Kelsey's so abanity fair article.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
I'm so I'm so shocked that the league hasn't caught
on to the fact, or maybe they are aware of
the fact that they give guys the opportunity to smoke
by doing it the.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Way that they do it.
Speaker 4 (34:35):
It's just it's really like, just don't get in a program.
If you stay out of the program, you can pretty
much do what you want to do. If you're in
the program, you're screwed.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
And so when you when you see why am I
blanket on his name? Josh Gordon, Yeah, Josh Gordon. When
you see how many times he got he got popped.
He just wasn't taking it all the way through.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
This is well, just we It's just we meant more.
It's like a gambling conversation we had. It's just the
weed at the gambling. It just meant more. The we
meant more to Josh Gordon than having a job in
the NFL.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Got to walk that greenwolf, you know, gotta make a dance.
The way this works, we.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
Got to have the funds to get it, though, I
guess I don't know.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Whatever it is?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
What else is?
Speaker 1 (35:23):
What else? We got?
Speaker 8 (35:24):
Lee guys, In case you've missed it, on the show,
we've talked about Ja Morant's you know, recent troubles. He's
claimed that it was a lighter gun, you know, a
flame lighter gun that he was using in that famed video. Well,
in a deposition made to authorities his associate DeVante Pack.
This was a deposition made when a teenager was assaulted
(35:47):
in Ja Morant's house back in twenty twenty two. DeVante
Pack claims that Ja Morant does in fact own a
clock forty, so, you know, just looking out for his buddy.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
There, how about that? Though, Like that's called value in life,
you know, like this weekend, fourth of July, there's a
lot of like, you know, Ribi value packs. You can
buy its supermarkets because it's fourth of July weekend. How
about a value pack you buy a glock forty. It
doubles as a lighter. That's something, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
It's definitely a lighter. It could be a toaster, it whatever.
Speaker 6 (36:23):
It's also a laptop.
Speaker 3 (36:26):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Yeah, it could be a toaster, it could be uh,
it could be uh, you know, an electric chair.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
Different things.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Yeah, some people would say when you use them guns,
you lighten somebody up.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
So it could be a shovel. It's a lighter doubles
as a shovel.
Speaker 4 (36:50):
Some people call it wrench, some people call it hammer.
So I could see how he would say it was
a lighter that you know it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
A real gun.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Hey man, John Moran's got to get better friends. This
is not ideal.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
How about job?
Speaker 4 (37:09):
How about John Moran needs to just do better for himself.
Let's start there. You use self accountability a lot of times,
like this is a pure self accountability situation, and.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
He's missing what is the twenty five games? Little twenty
five games knocked off? Next season for the Memphis Grizzlies.
Speaker 4 (37:30):
But what happens if he does it for a third tap?
Speaker 1 (37:34):
Oh? God, got to be a year, right, I would see.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
I would have thought this one would have been.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Although, although if you do it for a third time,
do you reward the inability to recognize your flaws by saying,
you know what, we'll give you back pay because there's
nothing we can do to help this. You know, I'll
tell you what we'll give We'll give you all the
back pay from the games you were suspended. You clearly
don't get it, and we admire the fact that you
don't get it and inability to get it. And so
(38:02):
maybe Adam Silver just you know, writes him a big
fat paycheck and says, you know what, do what you
gotta do. I respect your hustle, and I respect your
commitment to walking around with hand cannons on video. Maybe
that's what it is. What else, that's what it is?
Speaker 6 (38:16):
Guys? We had mentioned TJ Watt, Well, how about JJ Watt?
Speaker 8 (38:19):
And has just announced that he has signed a multi
year deal with CBS Sports to become a studio analyst.
This will start Week one, twenty twenty three season.
Speaker 4 (38:27):
All right, A little JJ Watt.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Do you prefer LeVar You've obviously done both. I haven't
because nobody invites me to these things. Do you prefer
doing studio analyst work or calling games?
Speaker 4 (38:46):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (38:48):
Calling games was fun.
Speaker 4 (38:50):
I ain't gonna love, but I've historically I do studio,
so I enjoyed studio. I think they're uh h.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Yeah, I feel like I go with studio.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
There's not a lot of defensive players that I can
think of off the top of my head that are
that are color announcers like Adam Archalletta is one of them,
and I know there's some out there, but you know,
it would be nice to get a defensive guy in
the booth, you know, from time to time, I don't know,
it's all offensive players seemingly so good for J. J. Watt,
you know, maybe he'll.
