the way tire buying should be. So there was a
lot of movement around the NFL. It felt like, you know,
Kirk Cousins going to Atlanta. You know, no real hard feelings.
There probably some disappointment or some people that say, hey,

(01:45):
look makes some sense financially, we don't want to continue
with Kirk Cousins at that price, but appreciate everything that
you've done for us, and it's all good. And then
you look around and you see another situation like Saquon
Barkley who decided, I'm going to go back to Pencil.
Thank you for my time with the New York Giants,
but I'm gonna go be a Philadelphia Eagle for three
years thirty seven point seven five million. The deal reportedly

(02:09):
could be worth up to forty six points seven to
five million, but he gets twenty six million dollars guaranteed. Now,
let's just hope that this works out better than the
last time they signed a division rival running back In
DeMarco Murray because that didn't last all that long. But nonetheless,
Saquon Barkley is now a member of the Philadelphia Eagles,
and uh not everybody was thrilled with the decision of

(02:31):
Saquon Barkley to go ahead and sign with Philly peez
Tiki Barber, former NFL running back, longtime New York Giant,
he was on wfan and well this sout played out.
Saquan has already taken to Twitter himself to say thank
you to everyone who's shown me love and support over
the past six years.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Forever grateful, excited for the next chapter. Blue heart emoji.
Pe okay, blue heart emoji. I'm looking at he's paid
to us. Now say he's dead because he won't say
they're dead to us. Good luck, you're dead to me. Yeah,
so that's not that agregious. Well, I mean, that's just
kind of like it's unnecessary, unnecessary.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
But let's be real, let's be real. Let's just paint
the picture for your penn stator. All right, he's with
the number two overall pick. He plays out his five years,
they pick up the fifth year option, which look, I
understand that's how it is constructed. In the collective Bargaining
Agreement for rookies. But if this young man was born

(03:30):
twelve years earlier, he would have getting would have been
getting paid because he would have been under a different
structure for the rookie Draft salary pool in regards to
their contracts. So the first issue is it's just it's
a little bit unlucky some of the changes that have
been made to the rookie contracts. But I digress. They

(03:50):
pick up the fifth year option, he plays under it.
Usually a guy of his stature, a guy who's a
Pro Bowl caliber player, He's not gonna play under the
fifth year option.

Speaker 5 (03:58):
They're gonna get him extension. Giants.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
Then he plays under one yeard of the franchise tag. Okay,
so six years he's in the league with this team
and they don't commit to him long term. Reportedly didn't
even make an offer, And you're blaming this young man
for choosing to go somewhere else where they're willing to
give him the offer that he's looking for for his

(04:21):
own financial security. Man, come on, Tiki, he should know
better than anyone else as a running back. Like all
bias aside, this is about a young man trying to
get his financial security. I have no problem with this,
especially considering the fact that the Giants didn't want to
even give them anywhere apparently close to what the Eagles

(04:41):
were willing.

Speaker 5 (04:42):
To give him.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Saquan responded to Tiki Barber because he saw the clip
that made the rounds on social media, and he said, Lol, Yep,
you're the prime example of loyalty to a team. I
got the deal I wanted, secured more guaranteed money, which
wasn't given to me before. So if fans are gonna
hate me for that, so be it. But I never
turned my back my teammates and always had theirs and
then wrote, you've been a hater since I got to

(05:04):
New York and all the dead to me talk don't
smile on my face when you see me.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
So he's just I just think in context, it's getting
blown out of proportion. And and the reason why is
because I'm saying it. You're you're dead to me. It's
it's like that's a New York city like kind of
he Teaki's New York, like New York, New York. It's like, ah,
you did to me, like you know, It's like, no,
it's not the only place, but but putting it in context,

(05:32):
Giants don't like Philly. That's their biggest that's their biggest rival.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Well, and there's probably a backstory and they probably don't
like each other.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
And so he's not going to speculate that that's that's
taking it out of context, keeping it in context and
say you're dead to me, because he wouldn't have said
that if he had gone to any other team other
than Dallas. But Dallas is a close second to Philly
being that is the most intense rivalry between teams in

(06:00):
the NFC East is the Giants and the Eagles. That
is that is a known deal, like it is bad
blood between those two teams. So that's just Tiki like
playing into the the you know, the fan base and
him doing doing media. I mean, it wasn't that all.

Speaker 5 (06:18):
You think you don't think it's real?

Speaker 1 (06:20):
Yeah, I don't think that's real. Like I think took
it for real. I think his response was real. But
but Tiki didn't say that much. It was just like
kind of like a response like dead to me, like yeah,
you're dead to me, or or I forget about it,
like yeah, I think I don't. I don't think it
was egregious.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
I think is bothered that there wasn't something more done
in New York.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yeah, but I think that that's a whole nother we
But that's a whole nother conversation, which I think is
one hundred percent accurate.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
I think he's I think he's really disappointed. I think
he's disappointed both together though.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
I think he's.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Disappointed, and I think his reaction to it is like, man,
don't come at me. All I wanted was to stay
in New York and get something done. I tried, and
I played the game last ye didn't didn't miss a
single day. I got held out and then it turned
into this. And to Brady's point, they didn't even reach
out to like Bacon.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
And you know why he went to Philly, not only
because of the money that by game is because he
gets to he gets to prove to them why they
should have kept him.

Speaker 5 (07:21):
He yes, By the way, Tiki I did.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
It all time record as a New York Giant versus
the Philadelphia Eagles. He was twelve and eight during the
course of his career in the regular season. In fact,
had a nice little streak to beginness career. I don't
think they lost for the first seven seven matchups, maybe
six matchups something like that, but twelve and eight overall
in the regular season, postseason one to one against the Eagles.

(07:45):
So yeah, and actually his his his final postseason game
was a twenty to twenty three loss. Although Tiki played
pretty well, it was pretty pretty pretty good in that game. Away,
I just added little context to it. I do think
you have to lump in the Giants and the Daniel

(08:06):
Jones situation because it did immediately impact him.

Speaker 5 (08:10):
If they didn't play.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
Out the scenario the way they did, if they just
picked up the fifth year option on Daniel Jones, they
wouldn't have been in the predicament of trying to place
the franchise tag on one of the two and give
the other the long term deal for starters. They would
have had a little more cap space because the fifth
year option wasn't going to be as much as what
the tag would have been on Daniel Jones, at least
from a negotiating tactic and standpoint. The other thing is,

(08:34):
as I think they would have said, like, all right,
let's let this thing with Daniel Jones play out another year,
and they would have continued to see that it is
Saquon Barkley, who was the piston, the engine whatever of
the had offense to make it go, and that would
be that I think directly impacted him. I mean, he
thought he was hitting the free age of market last

(08:55):
year when he didn't get the deal he wanted from them.
But Daniel Jones agrees to that deal, which no fault
to him. How could you turn down eighty some million
dollars guaranteed on a four year, hundred and sixty million
dollar deal.

Speaker 5 (09:07):
He's like going to turn that down.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
So he accepts the deal and then Saquon Barkley ends
up getting the tag, So it kind of did directly
impact him. And the frustration of Jones getting injured and
the season going off or not, and that whole scenario.
It's it's hard not to harbor probably some tough emotions
in regards to how he was impacted by.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
It, and he performed this year and stayed help Yeah, yeah,
inspite all this, despite all of those things. So I
get it. I get both sides of it. If you're
a Giants fan, it's like, we didn't do what we
were supposed to do to keep Saquon on the team.
We definitely jacked it up. But then it goes wrong

(09:49):
with a Giants fan when it's like, okay, so you're
going to go to Philly, Like that's it's more it
became I think it becomes more personal when when you
make a decision like that.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
It reportedly was down to three teams for him. It
was Philly, Houston, and Chicago, and he chose Philly, Like
Houston would have been like I would have thought that
that would have been the leading contender. You know, no
state tax, they're on the rise, like it, Like that
seemed like it would have made some sense. But now
he does get that opportunity twice a year to go

(10:22):
stick it to his former team who chose better.

Speaker 5 (10:28):
They should acknowledge.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
We should acknowledge the fact that the AFC South is
the UH, the preferred division when it comes to all
you free agents out there who are looking at cash
in and say state income tax. And for those who
don't know, obviously, the state of Texas doesn't have a
state income tax, nor does Tennessee UH or Jacksonville or

(10:51):
the state of Florida. And the only one you have
to worry about is Indianapolis, which is not too punitive
in the state of Indiana. So that is the preferred
division if you can to save on your money because
for those out there who don't know, eight slash nine
of yourra home games are taxed in your home state,
and then the rest are taxed where you play. So

(11:11):
that's where you get a little extra bump by getting
at least two of those games in a no stadihum
tax state, which I didn't does make.

Speaker 5 (11:18):
A difference for folks out there who are wondering.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
I didn't.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
I never realized that until David Anderson told me. I
was like, were you pissed you got drafted by the Texans?
He goes, well, it was a little annoyed at first
because I you know, I, if you go on draft,
you get to pick to where you want to go.
He goes, But then I learned the business of football
real quick and realize, oh, that's not bad.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Like you end up.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
Saving a lot of money based on where you're playing
and how you have to travel.

Speaker 4 (11:40):
But just do the math on it, Like to look
at Cousins deal. You get one hundred million guarantee. It's
signing right. He says, five percent of that that's the
difference of him signing in the state of Georgia. Ever,
sim signing the Minnesota on average, I mean, I'm not
doing their away games and factoring in that math, but
that's five million bucks on one hundred million dollars, Like
that's sick magnificant saving.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Yes it is, Yes, it is.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
I mean it's probably it's probably enough to have you.
In general, if someone off for you one hundred and
five or someone off of you one hundred, you'd say
I want to take one hundred and five, right, And
that's why, Like, there's a lot that goes into these
decisions with players in regards to Saquon, if it was
anything close to what Devin Singletary got offered, obviously to
sign back in Houston, they clearly got.

Speaker 5 (12:20):
A much better deal in Philly.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
But you'd have to imagine he knew he was gonna
prove you know, I guess promote a little extra I
don't know, resentment towards him or a little extra smoke
with making this decision to play the Giants twice a year.

Speaker 3 (12:35):
Look, he did his part, he did everything did and
they made a decision, and they made that decision last year.

Speaker 5 (12:42):
How much fun is he gonna be in that offense?

Speaker 1 (12:44):
By the way, you think they keep DeAndre swith No,
he's gonego Okay, okay, that was probably a plan B
if the Bears didn't land Saquon.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
But I'll say this too about Saquon. This is the
best offensive line he's played behind. And that's saying something
considering they will not have of Jason Kelcey at center,
but Jurgens will go to center. They just extended Lance
Dickerson and they should be intact the rest of the
way right and obviously have Lane Johnson the right tackle spot,
and I mean a lot at the left tackle spot.
But like this will be the best offensive line he's

(13:15):
played behind. He's got a good play caller. Now they're
in Kellen Moore with Jalen Hurts as a mobile quarterback.
He could be a part of that where he's going
to see a reduced box count because you have a
j Brown and DeVante Smith on the outside and then
Hurts ability to run.

Speaker 5 (13:30):
The only thing that might get frustrating is once they
get in.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
The red zone, when hurt starts pulling that pall and
keeping it and running the end zone.

Speaker 5 (13:37):
That might be the only thing that impacts his stats.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
But this should be a really really good situation for
sakuon Barkley.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
He's from PA. I mean he was born in New York,
but he's from PA.

Speaker 5 (13:48):
Whitehall.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Yeah, so give him.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
Some about about five hours away from thanks Google maps
me talking about that. I didn't even have Wi Fi
here in the studio.

Speaker 5 (13:59):
Just give me.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
I'm a little you know, if you're a Giants fan, like,
you can't be too upset. He did play for Penn State, Yeah,
from PA, you.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
Know, and he could just take like the I Eta,
I'll be the I you know, four seventy six south
of me.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Once again, I did as if I got drafted by
Cleveland and I ended up becoming a free agent and
had the opportunity to sign with Pittsburgh.

Speaker 5 (14:19):
I'm going there.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
In the heart you saw people were getting upset that
Damar Hamlin wanted to finish out his career in Pittsburgh
and Buffalo fans were like getting upset and stuff like that, like, man.

Speaker 5 (14:29):
It's too close in proximity, though.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
I don't care. I'm from there, so you're from there,
s Damar is from from I'm from Columbus.

Speaker 5 (14:38):
Right when I was a free agent. Had Pittsburgh ever
been like, hey, we'd like to epic.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yeah, but you're from Ohio. Like that's if I was
from If I was from Ohio, that's their disrespect.

Speaker 4 (14:48):
It's like, but that being said, like I did like
Michigan when I was in high school. Like I thought
it was like, oh, this would be cool.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
I just would love to have played for my hometown team,
the team that I grew up hairing.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
For me, it's pretty easy, Like it's just under one
hundred and forty miles.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
You could take the guarantee of the Philadelphia I don't
even have a laptop on me today. Yeah, I could
guarantee you he's a fan of the Eagles.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Your laptop got stuck together, house too sticky the keyboard.

Speaker 3 (15:18):
Based on the conversation we were having earlier, possibly message
I said, John Tech, what uh you earlier?

Speaker 1 (15:27):
What you looked at it earlier? You know? Oh that
do with the party favorite hands.

Coming up in about twenty minutes from now from the
Tirak dot com studios, we are going to have another

(18:01):
puts together some very interesting options and questions for us
here on the air. They could be sports, they could
be not sports, and we're going to try and answer
them as honestly as possible.

Speaker 5 (18:10):
That's why Lead had missed today.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
Huh oh yeah, I mean this is a can't miss segment. Yeah,
it's a it's a staple here.

Speaker 5 (18:17):
On the show.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
So that'll be uh, that'll be coming up here at
about twenty minutes from now here on Fox Sports Radio.
So Brady, what is the I mean, listen, you're obviously
close to you. What's the plan in Miami right now
with the Dolphins?

Speaker 1 (18:32):
What do we uh?

Speaker 2 (18:33):
What?

Speaker 3 (18:34):
What are we looking at here? Christian Wilkins is gone.
He goes to the Raiders, which, by the way, apparently
defensive tackles is the position to be this offseason because
guys are getting paid man like, they're getting paid a
ton of cash. So he got paid by the Raiders,
but it's another piece for the Miami Dolphins that is
now gone. Still trying to figure out the Tua contract

(18:54):
situation moving forward, what's gonna happen with that, But it
does feel like there's a lot of change for it
team that was a playoff team a year ago.

Speaker 4 (19:03):
Yeah, so coming into this offseason, the Miami Dolphins, I
don't want to say we're in cap hell, but they
were definitely over the cap. So they've had to make
some restructuring and some tough decisions on guys they either
had to release or couldn't sign to an extension. And
so they've now gotten back under it by almost five million,

(19:25):
So they're in a much better spot now.

Speaker 5 (19:27):
But you know, when you compare them, for.

Speaker 4 (19:29):
Example, to the Los Angeles Chargers, who are the most
over the cap twenty five almost twenty six million over
the cap, the Chargers are actually in a better spot
because they at least they have Justin Herbert under his
second contract. The Dolphins still have to make that decision
with Tua Tongue Bai Lois, so they could play this
thing out and that will help at least in the

(19:50):
short term, but eventually they're going to make a decision
at that position, and so because of that, they've had
to make some really tough decision in regards to everyone Elsebviously,
they moved on from Xavier Howard Christian Wilkins, who just
cashed in with the Las Vegas Raiders. They were not
going to be able to pay him that sort of contract,
even though Stephen Ross does have the financial wherewithal to

(20:12):
do so, they couldn't under the salary cap, which was
gonna be the toughest part. So kudos to Christian Wilkins
for getting that deal. It's gonna be a heck of
a defensive front out there for Antonio Pierce. But that's
the issue right now for Miami is yes, they're under
the cap, but even with being under the cap, they
still have to make a decision on to a and

(20:34):
it's going to be a pretty heavy financial one unless
they let this thing slowly play out, which you know,
again could work, but it only gets pricier as we go.
So so big time cap rastructuring there in Miami. Ano
number of teams too, I mean, LA the Chargers have
about twenty four hours to get this thing back right,
and that could involve outright releases of Joey Bosa, Khalil Mack,

(20:58):
both players obviously with decent cap hits, if they can't
find a trade partner to offset some of that.

Speaker 5 (21:05):
So it's uh, it's a tough.

Speaker 4 (21:07):
Time of year for veterans and that's why you know,
when you look at these contracts and even Christian Wilkins,
which is a great deal because it's really almost three
years in guarantees, which is it's hard to find for
a non quarterback. That's what you're looking at. Just folks,
look at the guaranteed at science. The only thing that matters.
Most of these deals are one two year deals at
most because once these teams don't have any guaranteed money

(21:30):
on the books for the player, they are expendable and
they don't care and they try to do exactly what
Sean Payton tried to do to Russell Wilson last year
during the season, get him to take out injury guarantees,
which to me is a bad precedent to ever said.
But that's the kind of business here, and it's a
cutthroat business, and so for that reason, you got to
be careful about what's reported with a lot of these contracts.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
I don't have much to add on to the contract
defensive gets getting.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
By the way, the four players that left Miami, they've
accumulated I think about one hundred and seventy five million
dollars like Van Ginkel, Wilkins, Howard Big Like it's been
somewhere around that amount of money so far for the
players that have not been able to be signed back
in Miami. So in one way, you're saying, like Chris Career,
great job drafting, because obviously these guys, you know, we're

(22:22):
talented enough to get paid, especially as free agents. But
on the other side of things, you're going stakes, we
couldn't sign them back.

Speaker 5 (22:27):
You know.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
I mean, the good news for Miami is that you're
in the division with New England and they are going
to be.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
Awful next year. Yes, they are.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
They're going to be That's a bad football team next year.
So that is going to be good.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
What the bills?

Speaker 5 (22:39):
The bills hold?

Speaker 1 (22:41):
I'm not buying the Jets. What do you mean? Wow,
I'm leaving them on I'm leaving them in Wow?

Speaker 5 (22:46):
What eight?

Speaker 1 (22:47):
I'm leaving them on al eight man. I will not
pull them off of the off of the Uh what
is that? What's your the shelf? Yeah, well leave them
right there. Looked at the price.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
I know.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
I'm not I'm not baying. I'm not bad for that.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
You don't believe Rogers comes back this year?

Speaker 5 (23:06):
Four million? Right now? No, I ain't pair for that. Yeah,
could be playing left tackle.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
Yeah, nope, He's got released yesterday Nope. By the way,
if you were a somebody who's.

Speaker 4 (23:20):
Satan, give us, give us here, give us your twenty
twenty four the Jets even a playoff team, and you're
in my LeVar Nope.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Wow, wow wow, I told you was we ate that?
Let's say eight to nine games? I said that, yeah,
asked before, can we ate that? Oh it's been faded.
Let me see eight to nine games.

Speaker 3 (23:38):
Let me see if I can get some juicy odds
on the Jets right.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Now making this making the playoffs.

Speaker 5 (23:44):
Let me see here for the drafticks.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
I feel like that should be a Bowld prediction that
they're the playoffs.

Speaker 4 (23:50):
I mean, a healthy Aaron Rodgers back and a Jets
team that's gonna be kind of retooled build up.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
I don't have to make the playoffs odds, but I
do have to win the AFC East at plus.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
Two ninety obviously the Bills of the favorites.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
Yeah, the Bills and then the doll The Dolphins are
sitting at plus one eighty five. I'll say this right now,
the Jets are gonna be better than the Dolphins.

Speaker 5 (24:09):
Next year.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
The Jets will be in third place, the fourth in
that division.

Speaker 4 (24:15):
Wow, LaVar Arrington says the Jets a gonna finish dead last.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
I don't think dead last. I think the Patriots will
finish dead last. But there's always the idea that you'll
get a boom factor from from having a player friendly
coach coaching them in in New England, they might actually
have a well, they don't have a quarterback right now. No,
they don't draft one. Draft one. Yeah, I think they

(24:44):
could mess around and do the same type of thing
that you know that they did in Houston. It's possible
that they could have a boom Sea boom season. I'll
be interesting to see what they do in Houston this year,
if they are actually able to build on that or
if it was just a one year phenomenon. But I mean,

(25:04):
there's nothing that correlates to me that says I should
be confident about the New York Jets. There's nothing. What
about Robert Sala. Robert Sala, I mean I believe in
his his his his healthy skin. I mean, he's got
and he gets a good beard and like like U
City looks like xersees. I mean, I mean, I believe

(25:25):
in that. But he hasn't given me any reason to
believe that he's a dope NFL hit coach.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
I mean they were a competitive team last.

Speaker 5 (25:33):
Year with despite the er. Yeah, there's still competitive at times.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Good.

Speaker 5 (25:39):
I can't believe this is how you're gonna handle this, man.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
I'm sorry, come on, not sorry, sorry, not sorry? Like,
what do we gotta do?

Speaker 3 (25:46):
And by the way, on the Bactieri front, if you're
somebody who's dealt with serious knee injuries, is that the
destination for you and where you'd be playing your home
games on that field? I'm just saying, like, and I'm
asking seriously, I'm asking seriously, are going to join him?

(26:07):
I'm asking seriously do you think do you think that
that's part of the day, that that's part of the
thought process around I don't know, man, that was Wow.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
None of those Wow, none of them.

Speaker 5 (26:24):
But you don't talk about LeVar Wow.

Speaker 1 (26:28):
Flavor Fla, that's Flave, Yeah, leg, now that's Flave. What's
he's been up to? Flavor? You know he's Vegas, right,
he's like a big fan. Didn't he have a didn't

Speaker 3 (26:48):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (26:49):
You might be right. Yeah, I think I saw that somewhere.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah, man, not too long ago. I mean, I'm not sure,
but yeah he was. I believe he was in Vegan.
How old is he? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (27:00):
I was gonna say, like, he's old. How long did
you have a sun plane that old?

Speaker 5 (27:04):
He's probably like Jonas, he's like forty three.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
No way, no way, he's in his sixties, late fifties,
late fifties.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
Flavor flavy, sixty.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
Four years old. He's old. Jeez, he just looks like
I thought it was just he does not look young.
What do you mean he looks the same, but you
don't look young. But he dresses young. Okay, well he
does dressing.

Speaker 5 (27:27):
I do think like him. One of those big clocks
was like that was dope.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
I mean, you know what ever thought to do for? Yeah,
he was a turnsetter, you know, kind of like Big Dom.
Kind of like big Big domin all the T shirts
like twenty twenty it would bro. I don't know how
many he was, but it was a lot. Twenty Yeah,
it was a lot.

Speaker 4 (27:48):
That's an egregious amount of T shirts like that. That
would be like wearing like a twenty pound weight.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
Fest bro, I kid, you not dumb. Used to wear
like it had to be at least six sept like
if I'm being dead on.

Speaker 5 (28:01):
It, five or six, I would say, is I could
believe that.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Twenty Yeah, twenty too many because you.

Speaker 4 (28:07):
Need like you would need like one of them would
have to be like a seven x eight x just
to fit over all the other ones.

Speaker 1 (28:14):
I don't even think he I think he like I
want to say he had him like tucked, mate, I
don't know. That's the that's Rob Parker travel trick he does.
He used to walk around and he was big as
he was already big, so he had on all them
them T shirts. You like, he looking he walking around
looking like yeah.

Speaker 5 (28:35):
This is This is when Jonas tells he's like ridiculous.
I want to go. Yeah, I know, because he doesn't
want to check.

Speaker 4 (28:42):
A bag, right, yeah, so he would No one charges, yeah,
no one charges for like carry on.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
I don't know, man, he flies spirit a lot, Okay,
Like he doesn't.

Speaker 1 (28:50):
Nobody charge. You get a person, you get a personal.

Speaker 4 (28:53):
Spirit does, but you do get to you do get
a personal at him to your point, so you could
still stuff it in a backpack.

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Like if he's traveling and he's going someplace for like
four or five days, he'll just wear a bunch of
layers on top of each other, so he so he
doesn't have to uh to add anything else.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Why are you messing with? He talks about it. He's
proud of it.

Speaker 5 (29:15):
Because this is stick to LeVar.

Speaker 4 (29:19):
He tries to give you all these like little savings,
like ways you can save money on this side as well.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
You know, Jonas is a joner, you know what I mean. So,
and he does that on his shows on weekends, and
he probably doesn't know.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
He'll tell you how, brag how you bought deodorant at
the liquor store, which the markup on.

Speaker 5 (29:37):
A liquor store is ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
I don't know why, because if you're in a liquor
store and you need deodorant, clearly, yeah, they're gonna they're
gonna price gadge you and charge you three x what
it cost them.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
That's why gas stations are right off the freeway. They
know you got there. You're desperate. You got to get
your gas, so they're gonna jack up the prices. You
drive Inland a little bit, you get a cheaper rate.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
You get the gas on Saturdays when you're.

Speaker 5 (30:01):
Damn right.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
It's no good man, I was I gave you such
I've been giving you such great lead ins on the weekend.
I mean, this is awesome lead ins and and this
is the thanks you you get for it? And who
needs enemies?

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Were talking about it? That right there? Sam, you have
a thought on Rob Parker's layering. Rob also says that
he will travel to a place. He'll go to like
a local store.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Buy underwear, undershirts, wear them, and then just leave them
in the hotel. Yeah, that's that's that.

Speaker 5 (30:31):
Which is not a saving of money.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
But I understand what that's that New York stuff. That's
what like dangel to some perfectly good underwearing T shirts. Well,
I'm certain the people who cleaned the room probably maybe
if took them home.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
That's what I always tell him, like, because he'll leave
clothes in the room for the for the people there.
And he said, yeah, I'll leave a note that says
this is for you. I was like, Rob, how many
people cleaning your room are six?

Speaker 2 (30:55):
Four?

Speaker 1 (30:56):
Let me just ask you, like, who do you think that? Well?

Speaker 3 (30:57):
I know they could know somebody who's six true, Okay, man,
Like that's true for you, Rob.

Speaker 5 (31:03):
I mean that doesn't make it an awkward gift. By
the way, too, when by the way, you're about six four.
I saw some underwear that were left in a hotel.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
I watched them one once you know you're you're a
care who gives you your kidney?

Speaker 5 (31:15):
Do you want to know.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Who they are?

Speaker 5 (31:17):
Situations close?

Speaker 1 (31:20):
You're a tall drink, You're a tall drink of water.
Here's some BBDs. I have fun.

Speaker 5 (31:25):
I'd rather be free balling at the where.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
Definitely not using your huge draws. Man, not washed, I
don't care. Just the premise of that is is not okay.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
Like a little about a little over a year ago,
I bought underwear and I remember the guy at the
cash register was like, just so you know, you can't
return these, and I'm like, obviously, yeah, man.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
Got it.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
Yeah, final sales, I know that.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
I mean that was clearly a pickup line for you.

Speaker 3 (31:53):
Well, whatever it is, I'm not I'm not interested in
sharing cross rot with anybody else.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
So you know you can't return these, but you can
return They also ask that you wear before you try on.
No swimsuits. Yeah, for a good reason.

Speaker 5 (32:09):
Well, here's the.

Speaker 4 (32:10):
Thing is, I don't even want to try on a
bathing suit because I assume someone else probably.

Speaker 5 (32:16):
Has or it might have and so I'm like, I
don't even want to know.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
I'm gonna take it home and I'm gonna wash it
and then then I'm gonna wear it.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
I'm not even doing that the premise and you're like,
all right, that'll fit. No, no, right off Amazon, That's correct,
just the premise at this point in life, Like you
don't have to go shop in a a brick and mortar,
the premise of actually putting something on, like swim trunks

(32:43):
in a shop knowing that people shop in this shop.
No way, no, No.

Speaker 5 (32:51):
Online is just aware.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
That's a weird type of feel for me.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
Buying underwear in general, it can be awkward, you know.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
I'm just like, people will judge you on your on
your underwear selection.

Speaker 4 (33:04):
You want to last time I went up to the cashier,
I'm not gonna tell this story so awkward.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
Ad No, because oh was this so I think I
know what this was.

Speaker 5 (33:16):
No, No, I'm not doing it. I'm not I'm pulling
back people.

Speaker 4 (33:24):
It wasn't that the dude goes, oh, because you're a big.

Speaker 5 (33:30):
Boy, so you don't want to double excel. I was like,
I just want to get out of.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Here, and you know you can't return them right exactly.

Speaker 4 (33:41):
I was just like, oh man, I don't I just
want to bother to get out of here.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
You're a big boy, that the director you want to
go with this? Okay, that'd be nine well that be cash,
credit or check?

Speaker 4 (34:01):
Oh man, I think I threw him cash and it
was end up being a tip.

Speaker 5 (34:06):
I'm not even sure how much it was. But how
much is Here's a twenty? Just take it. You need
to get the hell out of here. Then.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
Way to break his heart.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
I'll tell you that right now, because he's probably was
probably now looking for a new job. And if you

I'm flirting with forty at this point, it's someone calls
you a big boy.

Speaker 5 (34:48):
By the way, this.

Speaker 4 (34:49):
Dude may have been younger than me, which made it
even more awkward.

Speaker 5 (34:53):
It's like, what is what is happening here.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
I don't feel comfortable issues. I've never had anybody sit
there and say nothing to be like that. Ever, you
get to look at me like, oh, hey, that's what
comes from brick That's what comes from brick and mortar
shop and black Zilla.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
Hey what did LeVar say yesterday? It's like, oh, you
must be short.

Speaker 4 (35:14):
He's like people or no, who are we talking at
tari kill You must be really short because people be talking.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
Tracks and talking bad to him. Why would be trying
him all the time. I will say this the weirdest
thing ever. And Q, I'm sure you get this. No
matter what sports bar, it's always a sports bar. If
you go to the bar and you're at the sports bar,
at the beginning of the time that you're there, it'll

(35:40):
be like, oh, oh you're LeVar Arrington, dada does it's
great to meet you, this, that, and the other twenty
thirty minutes in without fail, Oh you're not as big
as I thought you were, Like, you're not as big
as in person.

Speaker 5 (35:51):
I never get that.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Okay, here we go. Then we get thirty forty minutes
in to an hour. I could take you like I
use to get that at every single sports bar. I
went to, I could take you a by the time
we got to a certain point in the night, I
could take you.

Speaker 5 (36:08):
That's that's the drink.

Speaker 1 (36:10):
Increasing Yeah, of course, of course most.

Speaker 4 (36:12):
People, and I think it's because when you stand in
a huddle, you're around offensive lineman.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
And they make you look they make me look small.

Speaker 4 (36:19):
And then when they see me, they're like, oh, you're
way bigger than I thought you were.
