Speaker 4 (01:04):
You almost whispered it like you didn't want to say it, but.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Because because you know, I knew what I was doing,
what I was doing, I knew I shouldn't have said it.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I'm the mush I knew I was the mush. Well,

Speaker 6 (02:02):
Hello, you're gonna leave it at that, No background on

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Well, he didn't buy into the Calves winning the series
when they were down oh two, and now it's a
three to two series.
Speaker 7 (02:14):
No, No, did he did he make a promise that
that that he might be help to But it's the
other two people.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
In the room right here. Well, it really was a bit.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
Ab It was a bit because obviously Jonas Knox is
a degenerate better and never never wins, so he doesn't want.
Speaker 8 (02:34):
To get it.
Speaker 7 (02:35):
Would be LeVar like, we got to think of a name,
like right, Like that's true.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Lavarro doesn't bet.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, Loveita sounds like one of my in laws.
Speaker 9 (02:49):
What about this one, Lvarella Lovarella?
Speaker 3 (02:53):
I like that, Yeah, that's interesting.
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Well, you know I'm not taking the bet literally, you know,
because that I don't know.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
Hey, get to the one more game, baby.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
This is what game. This is what Jonas and Q
do to me.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Ab They start cutting me off, and they start double
teaming me, all messing with me.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Jonas told man, I.
Speaker 7 (03:15):
Don't know, man, it sounds like there's a lot on
the line in Cleveland, Ohio tomorrow night.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
Jonas was supposed to do it on a bet that
he made years ago, and that was where the.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Whole bit came from.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
By the way, Tony Romo gets ten million dollars a year,
I'm getting a sex try no, al fort, let me
explain myself. This is this is outrageous, all right, all right,
So years ago, when Brady and I were doing our
Sunday night show, there was a report that when Tony
Romo was going to re up his deal with CBS.
He was going to get over ten million dollars a year,
you know, I think he got eighteen million, and I
thought there was no way anybody was going to give
(03:49):
him that amount of money. So that's why I said
this when the when the topic came up about Tony
Romo and the ten million dollars.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
The difference is Jonas said it and meant it. I
said it joking around based on what what Joanas.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
It when he did it. So but anyway, I did
not believe.
Speaker 8 (04:08):
You're Jonas's character in the question.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Now it is it is.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Called it is called in the character or called into question.
And I did not believe that the Calves would win
this series.
Speaker 9 (04:20):
We should point this out to Jonas on that Sunday
Night show would say some of the most ridiculous things
you've ever heard, because he knew no one, no one
would remember a week later what he had said.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
The prior so hared to there was that too.
Speaker 9 (04:36):
So but he would say things like this and think
no one would ever hold him accountable.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
For advice studio and yank my nipples.
Speaker 8 (04:45):
But if he was right, he could take the victory lap.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, that's right, I did things exactly. That's how we
do it.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Yank your nipples.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Huh. I'm curious when the NFL schedule comes out and
we're like, oh, the a big release date is going
to be Thursday and they'll do the International Games Wednesday. Well,
if that's the case, how can we know so many
of these games already? And just now they're starting to like,
what is the process like when when insiders like yourself
(05:16):
are given the schedule of games to where you can
feel comfortable about releasing that information.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
I mean, I don't like, this isn't like one of
these that I really pursue much, to be honest with you,
you know, I think it's like like I don't really
treat it as new, like quote unquote news, but some
people do, you know, And so you see that out
there and I and look like I think there's like
a big difference between a leak and an announcement.
Speaker 6 (05:43):
Like compare this to the draft, Right.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
The NFL does not want the draft picks getting out
before the commissioner gets to the podium. They flat out
do not want that.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
Right, in this case, they do.
Speaker 7 (05:54):
Want this information out there because they do want it
to be a big deal that the schedule is coming
out this week, and you know, all.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
The different networks have their upfronts this.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
Week, so that's part of it too, and selling all
this stuff to.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Advertisers and all that, and you know, so they want
what the NFL wants is not just people to tune
in at eight o'clock tonight.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
They want people.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Paying attention to them all week, you know.
Speaker 7 (06:20):
And so like that's why that's.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Why I always laugh when I see you know, I
think and.
Speaker 8 (06:25):
I love I love Pat, but like you.
Speaker 7 (06:26):
Know, McAfee headed on his show like schedule leaks, Like
they're not leaks, dude, Like these aren't leaks at all,
Like these are these are coordinator and announcements when something is.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
On the Today Show and you have like you.
Speaker 8 (06:39):
Know, whoever Savannah.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Gotthory reading it as not a leak, that is a
that is an announcement, you know, and that's something in
the NFL wants out there.
Speaker 8 (06:47):
And so you know, I I like, I think that
it's just.
Speaker 7 (06:52):
Sort of a way for them of bringing excitement to
the idea.
Speaker 6 (06:57):
That the season isn't that far off and all of that.
You know, look like I know this like going back.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Like ten to fifteen years, they wanted to try to
create like the different events you know, over the course
of the off season, so everybody's talking football NonStop, right,
and that was like if you guys remember there was
one year where they actually moved the draft into May
and it didn't really work, but they did that because
they wanted to stretch out the amount of time people
(07:24):
were talking football, and so they knew the draft was
a big talker and so like, let's move the draft
into May and maybe that'll work.
Speaker 8 (07:31):
And now it's evolved to the point.
Speaker 7 (07:32):
Where you know, Okay, you got the combine, which is
sort of the introduction to the draft in February, two
weeks after the Super Bowl, you got the free agency.
In March, you had all the rules changes and that
stuff happening. Later that month, you got the Draft, which
kind of encompasses all of April, and then you have
this in May. And so you know, again, like I
think the idea that the greater idea for the for
the NFL was to create discussion around football, you know,
(07:55):
around the clock and around the calendar. And so you know,
they've sort of taken this week and tried to turn
it into a way to get people excited about you
know it's gonna happen in September and October November.
Speaker 9 (08:09):
Can I admit something, I don't really find the whole
schedule releas thing like entertaining at all.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
I mean, we know.
Speaker 9 (08:17):
Who, yeah, teams are playing, you know, yeah, but no,
but I'm saying we know who the teams are playing
at the end of the regular season, like we've known
who they're playing in January, we just don't know when
they're playing them, which, to be quite honestly, it doesn't
matter to me.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
I can probably give you a prediction.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
You know what's interesting? So here I think what's most
interesting in seeing who got screwed, you know what I mean,
like who's got.
Speaker 9 (08:39):
To play like with with what my weeks or like
the string of weeks like it.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
Was going to pull some outrageous travel trick like you remember,
do you guys remember what happened to the Jets a
couple of years ago where they had to play Monday
night in San Francisco, then come home from San Francisco
and you guys know what time you get home if
you're playing in New York right from a San Francisco
Monday night game, then they had to turn around and
(09:04):
play in Tennessee, which isn't that isn't that far away,
but still time zone away the following Sunday, and then
the following Thursday. After that they finally had their home opener.
Speaker 8 (09:16):
And so it's Monday, Sunday, Thursday.
Speaker 6 (09:18):
You know, you have the teams that were playing that
Christmas Wednesday?
Speaker 7 (09:21):
Was that two years ago?
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Now? Yeah? Right?
Speaker 7 (09:23):
Like, so all those teams had to play at the
end of the season Sunday, Saturday Wednesday. There's one team
I know this year that I think we're all going
to be talking about later.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
Today that's going to have to play on six of.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
The seven days the week.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
You know, Oh, can you tell us or no?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Is that z I.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
Can't tell you no, But like I mean, it's it's
six of the seven days of the week, which is
like and there's gonna be some outrageous traveling there too,
you know.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
So it's like.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
I mean, here's the problem with the travel.
Speaker 9 (09:54):
It's like, we know the Rams, we know the Seahawks,
we know like those NFC West teams, did we travel anyway?
And then you you factor in a couple of the things.
So it's just I don't know, I've never.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
Been in Niners.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
For example, the.
Speaker 8 (10:08):
Niners go to Australia and Mexico this year.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
And people are like, well, Mexico, that's not that.
Speaker 8 (10:13):
Big a deal. Well that was supposed to be a
home game, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (10:17):
Like, so so they're losing a home So the Australia
game is a road game, right, Like that's that's a
RAMS home game. But but then they but then they
lose them. They're losing a home game to go to Mexico,
and like that is a game at like at rate,
Like people don't realize the altitude thing there.
Speaker 6 (10:35):
I think it's like it it's it's like three or.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
Four thousand feet higher above sea level than Denver is.
You know, yeah, there's all the complications that like come.
Speaker 8 (10:47):
With playing in Mexico.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
So like like that's always like to me, like that's always.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
The most interesting thing because I do think like, and
you know, I have no way to like quantify this,
but you know, I think if you talk to enough
people like damn these.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
It's seven and fifty feet above sea level by the way.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
Yeah yeah, well yeah, so they I mean like you
look alike a lot of these like a lot of
these teams to tell you the ones that have that
sort of thing like where they're playing constantly Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Sat, all that different stuff. You know, like that takes
a toll on you, you know what I mean, like
that that like and like by the end of the year,
sometimes those teams are worn out, Like the Chiefs have
had to do.
Speaker 8 (11:29):
That two years in a row. And I think of
like that.
Speaker 7 (11:33):
If you talk to Chiefs people off the record, they
will tell you, like, like last year, like a lot
of it caught up with them where they were sort
of a dead ass.
Speaker 6 (11:41):
Team by the end of the year. And I do
think it takes a toll on a.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Team when you know, like again, like you don't want
to be the team that's playing Sunday at one every
week because that probably means you're not very good. But
there is a toll the better teams, you know, have
to pay for for having for being just sort of
you know, shoehorned into all these different broadcast windows.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
AB we were asking the question, was there any connection
or relevance to naming.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
New England in the game.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
You know, it's there a sensational lives factor, is there?
You said, you want people talking, They want people talking
about the NFL. I mean, is there any is there
any type of connection there.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
You want me to put on my my my cynics
at like I can be.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Be please please if you want.
Speaker 6 (12:40):
Me to be the cynic here, Okay, I would tell
you just look at the super.
Speaker 7 (12:45):
Bowl, right And I always tell people like when they
announce the halftime act for the super Bowl or whatever
like that, like whoever that is like all the answer
or stuff they're doing around the super Bowl that ain't
for me or you, you know what I mean, Like
they have us, Like they don't need to worry about
people like me or you tuning into the super Bowl, right,
Like that's not their concern. What gets you from sixty
(13:08):
to seventy million watching or eighty to ninety million watching
or one hundred to one hundred and ten million watching
is like getting the fringe person who could take it
or leave it, you know what I mean, Like the
person who wouldn't normally be watching the game, Like how
do you pull that person in?
Speaker 6 (13:24):
And if you wanted to really be a cynic here.
Speaker 7 (13:27):
And what's the biggest story, Like what's the story that's
captured the attention what's the football story?
Speaker 8 (13:32):
This offseason has captured the attention of the non football fan.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Oh bree saw signing.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
That wasn't that funny? That was not that funny by Jones.
Don't give him the pity.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
I thought that was good.
Speaker 8 (13:50):
I thought that was good.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
No, but but but but, like if I wanted to
be a cynic, like there's going to be like there
might be still some morbid curiosity like oh, like this
is interesting, you.
Speaker 8 (14:01):
Know what I mean?
Speaker 7 (14:03):
And you know, like so.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
That after the Diana Rassini stuff broke is the first
game of the year. That's that's right, that's the word.
Let's let's put it out there and address it the
way that that.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
They were because it's because it can't be the game.
The game was awful in the Super Bowl, right and
I and.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
I would actually argue, I would say, from.
Speaker 7 (14:25):
A football perspective, putting the Bears in that slot might
be more interesting.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 6 (14:30):
You know, because I just think.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
Caleb Williams coming back second like his third year now,
they were really they were an exciting team last year.
Speaker 8 (14:40):
You know, like I I sort of look at the
Bears as I think the Bears are a really interesting team.
Speaker 6 (14:45):
And I think you could make the argument.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
That the Bears, like Bears Seahawks has got as much
or more curb appeal from a football perspective, just football
than than than than Seahawks Patriots would But but.
Speaker 6 (15:00):
You know, like I do think you have that like
a little element.
Speaker 8 (15:02):
So if I'm being.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
Cynical about it, and I'm looking at.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
Like the actions of the league in the past, and
I'm saying, like, okay, like there's a focus on bringing
in like the non football fan or maybe the person
who could take it or leave it, Like maybe that
gives the game a little bit extra juice, you know,
where people.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Are circling back, people who don't pay much attention to
football are circling back at the beginning of the year.
Speaker 7 (15:23):
It's like, oh, yeah, you remember that story back in,
you know, in April, and may like that guy is
coaching in the opener night, you know, and maybe they
tune in and watch.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Albert Brier joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, senior
NFL reporter, lead content strategist at the MMQB. Get him
on x at Albert Breer. So I did want to
ask you about Devon Aitchen and sort of the deal
that he got, because there's been there was some speculation
would he be the next to go because they've traded
away everybody.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
They're clearly in a.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Rebuild, yet they give them a contract like that in Miami.
Do you find that a little confusing If you're planning
a rebuild and that's sort of where they're headed, why
would you invest that much money into a running back?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
I mean, I you know, I I go back and
forth in this because I think, first of all, like
Jale and Waddell have more trade value.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
Right, And like I do think that.
Speaker 8 (16:17):
To a large degree.
Speaker 7 (16:18):
This is a this is a teardown, and I don't think, like,
I don't think I'm treading on any new ground by
saying that they went into the draft with seven picks
in the first three rounds. They're going to be, you know,
I think I think they're gonna be very They're gonna
be very much like you know, building to towards twenty
(16:39):
twenty seven and twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
This year.
Speaker 7 (16:41):
However, they do have a new head coach and Jeff Afflee,
and like they're gonna have to build some belief with
the people in that locker room, you know, And if
Jeff Affley and Johnny Sullivan want to get their their
their program off off on the right foot, they're gonna
have to get guys to buy in.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
And so, like you know, it's going to take having
some players that can make competitive And that's sort of
what I think Malik willis is. I think Devin han
is that way too, and.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
Maybe allowing you to manage games a certain way because
you're not going to be the offense that you were
with Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle over the last few years.
Speaker 8 (17:19):
It's going to allow you to manage.
Speaker 7 (17:20):
Games a different way, play games a certain way, and
just give yourself a chance to be competitive on a
week to week basis. And I say that mostly because
I do know, and you know, Brady and LeVar, you
guys know it's better than me. They're the players in
that locker room don't care about your three year plan
or your four year plan. Like they want to know
what you can do for them right now. And what
they want is a chance to be competitive and a
(17:42):
chance to succeed individually. And you know, so you can't
like strip the team all the way down and just
have nothing for them as far as giving them a
chance to win.
Speaker 6 (17:53):
And I do think a chen gives them a chance
to at least play a certain way and maybe maybe
win a couple of games.
Speaker 8 (17:59):
Say yeah, no.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
I could see that.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
Look, he's twenty four, right, He's a building block not
just for right now but for the future too, So
I could see how that makes a lot of sense.
And honestly, I had the chance to listen to Jeff
Affley at a conference he was speaking at, and one
of the things that he referenced was the way they're
building this roster is similar to his experience being around
(18:22):
Kyle Shanahan in San fran and just the manner of understanding, like, hey,
let's get really young, let's like build this culture of
competitiveness where there's not a lot of guys who are
those like consummate pros or veterans that have been here
that they're spots solidified, Like we want everyone to compete,
everyone to you know, realize there are plenty of jobs
(18:45):
at stake, and that's why they signed a bunch of
undrafted free agents. They drafted a lot of players, and
he's trying to kind of flip the culture there in
that manner, and I think it might work in a
place like Miami where there's a lot of instractions. But
you know, if you're not a paid player, you can't
really feel comfortable enjoying many of those distractions because if
(19:08):
you do, you're either gonna you know, slip up and
not be as good as you can be in some
of those competitions, or you know, you're gonna end up
slipping up where something's gonna happen and they can move
on from.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
You, right, right, And I think San Francisco is like a.
Speaker 7 (19:20):
Good example because of how many guys they hit on
outside of the first round, you know, I mean, people
forget like that first draft. The two first round picks
for John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan that year were Solomon
Thomas and Ruben Foster. I mean one was just a
decent player and he's still kicking around, but decent player
(19:40):
but not worthy of being the third overall pick.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
And the other one was just an abject disaster, right
And but like, you know, doing things that way, they
were able to dig guys out of you know that
dig guys.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
Out of the later rounde of the draft, like George Kittle,
like you know, like like Fred Warner, you know, and yeah,
you had your highly drafted guys like your Nick Fosa's
and you're DeForest Buckner's and your Eric Armstead. But they
obviously have done a phenomenal job, you know, just drafting
and developing and getting guys and you know, outside of
(20:14):
the first round.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
And I could see.
Speaker 7 (20:15):
Where Jeff would would would see that as a model
for what he wants to do in Miami, especially with
the number of draft picks they had this year.
Speaker 9 (20:23):
All right, Albert, I got to ask you something about
the media rights deals because there's a lot.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Of things going around right now.
Speaker 9 (20:28):
I think CBS has already opened up their negotiation window
with the NFL. But you know, Netflix has said that
they don't want a full Slater package. I'm sure because
of their deep pockets, the NFL wasn't the case yet
Netflix is going to do at the NFL Honors show
for them. You know, where do you kind of foresee
this all shaking out? Because it feels like the NFL
(20:50):
wants to hit that twenty five billion a year and
the best way to do it is through media rights
and really with these streaming platforms.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
But we're just not there yet.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (20:59):
I think Netflix is a great example of it, Brady. Like,
I think part of the reason they want to go
to eighteen games obviously is to create more inventory.
Speaker 6 (21:07):
And so like I think, you.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Know, what they were able to do with Netflix is.
Speaker 6 (21:12):
They like, okay, like we're going to sell them like
an event package, right, So they have week.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
One week eighteen Thanksgiving even two on Christmas Day. That's
five games, and like that's going to be how Netflix
is going to brand them, right like that, you know,
we are there, we're event television, you know, and we're
going to hold you know, special event NFL.
Speaker 6 (21:32):
Games on our air, right, And you know, I think.
Speaker 7 (21:35):
The same thing is, you know, true of the international package.
So they want to go to sixteen games, and you know,
I think the way you do that is you say, okay,
like if you're playing an eighteen game season, everybody has
one international game every year, and then you play alternating
nine home.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Games, eight road games, one neutral.
Speaker 7 (21:58):
Site, and then the next year it's eight home games,
one neutral site, nine road games, right, and so then
you can create like your Sunday Morning package that you're
selling that off, you know, And so you know, I
think what they're trying to do now is is create
like different sorts of packages beyond just like what we've
(22:18):
all you know, grown up watching, which is Sunday Sunday afternoon,
Sunday night, Monday night. They created Thursday night, you know,
and then then I think, like you get this event
package with Netflix.
Speaker 8 (22:30):
I think the next one would.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
Be the international package, you know, which would be the
Sunday morning games, you know, at least the ones that
are in Europe. I think, with different time zones and
everything else. You know, like we'll see how all of
that goes.
Speaker 8 (22:41):
But that's how they're growing it. You know.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
It's just you know, they came to this determination Brady,
fifteen twenty years ago, whatever it was, where you know,
we only have so much more room to grow domestically up,
so we need to grow out, and we're growing out
means is growing inventory, is creating new inventory. So that's
been going on for a long time.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
That's two teams in.
Speaker 7 (23:02):
LA, that's you know, going to Europe, that's going to
seventeen games, that's expanding the playoffs. That's creating new inventory
that you can sell. And certainly, you know, what they're
doing with the television packages is the best example of it.
Speaker 2 (23:16):

lead content strategist at the MMQB and a Thursday tradition

Wemby and the Spurs looking to close out the Minnesota
Timberwolves coming up. That'll be tomorrow. So we get a
(27:24):
little double header action in the National Basketball Association. So
we're gonna get a lot on the line as it
pertains to double barrel action or no, no, just doubleheader.
It's unfortunately all right.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
What would differentiate between girl doubleheaders here?
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Well, so double barrel would be if they're simultaneously going
on it's an old uh.
Speaker 9 (27:46):
Yeah, but Monday night football doesn't have them simultaneously going
one starts and the other one starts like yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
But it's a bit of staggers. They're going at the
same time. This one that's not gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Well, technically, if you understand double barrel and the manual has.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Never shot a double barrel shot, and.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
I'm actually just two games. It's two guns put together. Basically,
you're you can pull the trigger and actually only shoot
one side.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Of a double barrel gun. Yeah, I do know that.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Well do you know this, because I'm gonna go ahead
and go out on the lem and say that you don't.
But do you know this? The term double barrel action
is actually baseball term to when the bullpen was getting
up and they needed a righty and a lefty. They
would say double barrel action down to the bullpen, meaning
they got a righty and lefty going at the same time.
(28:38):
You guys are all about guns and violence, I am not,
so it is not a gun reference. It's actually an
old baseball reference trying to put you out a gun game.
It's a gun, bro, it's a gun. How would you
know you haven't shot anything up in years?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Man?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Would you know?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
You can? You can either do them at the same
time or you can do them separately.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Just depends on type. Of action the gun has.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
But with that being said, I don't know what your
reference was, and I'm just going to leave that where
you left it.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
Do you want to.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Pick that up? I missed the rocket launcher just at all, Timer.
I just miss it so much. Do you give the
Minnesota Timberwolves any hope whatsoever in forcing a Game seven?
Because Brady's called that, he said the Calves are closing
it out in six?
Speaker 9 (29:38):
Yeah, do you miss that? In the first segment. Here's
what I said, LeVar, I said, no, if.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
The Calves I didn't want it.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
I did not want Okay, you didn't want it, whatever,
I don't want it.
Speaker 9 (29:49):
If the Calves don't win Game six, they're not winning
in Detroit game seven. I feel like they'll lose momentum
and then goes back to Detroit. It ends in Detroit.
So to me, it's a all in must win.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Let them know. Game six for the Cleveland Cabinet Cavaliers.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
I felt like yesterday was the must win. Honestly, I
felt like whoever pulled out yesterday was going to be
the one who has the obviously the the inside track
of winning the series. I feel like they take the series.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
So wow.
Speaker 5 (30:23):
I think listen, They've they've shown that they can be
resilient Detroit. They've shown that they can bounce back even
in a game where they're they're facing elimination and coming back.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
So I don't count them out. I don't count them out.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
But I do think that yesterday was that was a
demoralizing victory or I should say demoralizing loss for for
the uh for the Pistons. I just don't see how
they bounce back from that. And to answer your question, Jonas,
Minnesota does have the capabilities of forcing it to a
game a game seven. They I believe that they have
(31:07):
played under their level of what they're capable of playing at,
which leaves some room for uh an improvement that could
lead to a win. But ultimately, this, this UH, this
Spurs team is a They're the better team, you know,
and the biggest, the big the biggest mismatch is Rudy
(31:29):
Gobert has been tasked with trying to deal with and
handle Wemby based upon the height, and he can't, he
can't keep up with him. And and that when your
best defender can't keep up with the other team's best
offensive weapon, and and he's pulling you from from out
(31:50):
of the key. It just opens up everything for the
Spurs to be able to run what they want to run.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yeah, because I find myself thinking, you get a really
rough Wenby up and and you know, just get him
to the foul line and then you realize, hey, shoots
eighty two percent there. You can't do that either. You
just there's no answer. They don't have an answer for him,
like whatever they're And Anthony Edwards made mention of it
postgame last game where he's like, yeah, there's just there's
nothing you can do about that. That's you know, you
(32:16):
got to just hope that you can hit enough shots,
keep it close and then and then get clutched down
the stretch should be pointed out here. As it stands
right now, the Spurs a four and a half point
favorite at Minnesota coming up tomorrow. Also, at the time
this show started two hours and forty minutes ago, the
Calves were a four and a half point favorite as
(32:37):
well too. That line has dropped to three.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
And a half, So.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Some big movement there.
Speaker 8 (32:46):
Power.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Yeah, So I'm just letting you know, man, you know,
maybe maybe people are feeling Detroit forcing the game seven
there and keep hope alive.
Speaker 9 (32:55):
Maybe there's some fans who just don't want, you know,
Lavarita to come out.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
I mean tomorrow when.
Speaker 5 (33:07):
This series I'll get a sex change. I knew, I
knew I needed to take the first first segment off.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
Man, I knew.
Speaker 5 (33:18):
I knew Q was going to come in and thick
with it, you know what I mean, lay it on,
super thick. The moment I saw them going to overtime,
I was like, I got to hear cue tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Then I woke up this morning, I was like, oh,
look at that.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Overslept, just didn't want to do it, just didn't want
to deal with it. Just didn't want to deal with it.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
I want to say.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
I went to sleep kind of depressed that I was
going to have to hear all of this mess this morning.
But then I thought to myself, maybe I'm not. Maybe
I wasn't depressed because I'm a Donovan Mitchell fan, like
I am.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Well, so I'm.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
Glad he's doing well, but he lets me down every time,
and and he's not going to disappoint this year. That's
all I'm gonna say. Some Way, somehow, if you trying
to put.
Speaker 4 (34:03):
Your bush on him, are you see what you're trying
to do.
Speaker 5 (34:08):
Okay, if I find my way back to being supportive
of him, he's gonna he's going to know that bus.
Speaker 9 (34:15):
That bus already left. Brother, You're not You're not on
our bus anymore. Right, We're headed back to Cleveland without
you for game six. Okay, you can't hop on now,
all right, we're not selling any fun.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
I would not. I would never go back on what
I say. So I'm a wait, never.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
Never.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
I mean I chose them to lose the the series.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
I'm not talking about I'm talking about getting a sex change.
I'm talking about the series. I mean, for what it's worth.
I mean, I'm like, I'm like Chris, I'm like Bruce.

kids it away.
Speaker 5 (35:01):
You know, he built an empire, and I got enough
money put away. I got on. I got it, I
got it. I got two Arrington mails so I can
keep my part. I held up my end of the bargain.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
To my dad. So we we do have two.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
Arrington's that that had potential to create more Arrington's. And
I have daughters, and my daughters would would do my
fingernails and we would do hair and make up together.
I mean, it would work out if I really wanted
to be that person.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
You're probably a better driver too, So there's that.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
I mean, so you're saying women can't.

Draft, No, I just uh can look that up. Uh

Well, you know I'm not taking the bet literally, you know,
because that I don't know.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
Hey, get to the one more game, baby.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
This is what game. This is what Jonas and Q
do to me.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Ab They start cutting me off, and they start double
teaming me, all messing with me.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Jonas told man, I.
Speaker 7 (03:15):
Don't know, man, it sounds like there's a lot on
the line in Cleveland, Ohio tomorrow night.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
Jonas was supposed to do it on a bet that
he made years ago, and that was where the.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Whole bit came from.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
By the way, Tony Romo gets ten million dollars a year,
I'm getting a sex try no, al fort, let me
explain myself. This is this is outrageous, all right, all right,
So years ago, when Brady and I were doing our
Sunday night show, there was a report that when Tony
Romo was going to re up his deal with CBS.
He was going to get over ten million dollars a year,
you know, I think he got eighteen million, and I
thought there was no way anybody was going to give
(03:49):
him that amount of money. So that's why I said
this when the when the topic came up about Tony
Romo and the ten million dollars.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
The difference is Jonas said it and meant it. I
said it joking around based on what what Joanas.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
It when he did it. So but anyway, I did
not believe.
Speaker 8 (04:08):
You're Jonas's character in the question.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Now it is it is.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Called it is called in the character or called into question.
And I did not believe that the Calves would win
this series.
Speaker 9 (04:20):
We should point this out to Jonas on that Sunday
Night show would say some of the most ridiculous things
you've ever heard, because he knew no one, no one
would remember a week later what he had said.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
The prior so hared to there was that too.
Speaker 9 (04:36):
So but he would say things like this and think
no one would ever hold him accountable.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
For advice studio and yank my nipples.
Speaker 8 (04:45):
But if he was right, he could take the victory lap.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, that's right, I did things exactly. That's how we
do it.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Yank your nipples.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Huh. I'm curious when the NFL schedule comes out and
we're like, oh, the a big release date is going
to be Thursday and they'll do the International Games Wednesday. Well,
if that's the case, how can we know so many
of these games already? And just now they're starting to like,
what is the process like when when insiders like yourself
(05:16):
are given the schedule of games to where you can
feel comfortable about releasing that information.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
I mean, I don't like, this isn't like one of
these that I really pursue much, to be honest with you,
you know, I think it's like like I don't really
treat it as new, like quote unquote news, but some
people do, you know, And so you see that out
there and I and look like I think there's like
a big difference between a leak and an announcement.
Speaker 6 (05:43):
Like compare this to the draft, Right.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
The NFL does not want the draft picks getting out
before the commissioner gets to the podium. They flat out
do not want that.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
Right, in this case, they do.
Speaker 7 (05:54):
Want this information out there because they do want it
to be a big deal that the schedule is coming
out this week, and you know, all.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
The different networks have their upfronts this.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
Week, so that's part of it too, and selling all
this stuff to.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Advertisers and all that, and you know, so they want
what the NFL wants is not just people to tune
in at eight o'clock tonight.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
They want people.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Paying attention to them all week, you know.
Speaker 7 (06:20):
And so like that's why that's.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Why I always laugh when I see you know, I
think and.
Speaker 8 (06:25):
I love I love Pat, but like you.
Speaker 7 (06:26):
Know, McAfee headed on his show like schedule leaks, Like
they're not leaks, dude, Like these aren't leaks at all,
Like these are these are coordinator and announcements when something is.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
On the Today Show and you have like you.
Speaker 8 (06:39):
Know, whoever Savannah.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Gotthory reading it as not a leak, that is a
that is an announcement, you know, and that's something in
the NFL wants out there.
Speaker 8 (06:47):
And so you know, I I like, I think that
it's just.
Speaker 7 (06:52):
Sort of a way for them of bringing excitement to
the idea.
Speaker 6 (06:57):
That the season isn't that far off and all of that.
You know, look like I know this like going back.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Like ten to fifteen years, they wanted to try to
create like the different events you know, over the course
of the off season, so everybody's talking football NonStop, right,
and that was like if you guys remember there was
one year where they actually moved the draft into May
and it didn't really work, but they did that because
they wanted to stretch out the amount of time people
(07:24):
were talking football, and so they knew the draft was
a big talker and so like, let's move the draft
into May and maybe that'll work.
Speaker 8 (07:31):
And now it's evolved to the point.
Speaker 7 (07:32):
Where you know, Okay, you got the combine, which is
sort of the introduction to the draft in February, two
weeks after the Super Bowl, you got the free agency.
In March, you had all the rules changes and that
stuff happening. Later that month, you got the Draft, which
kind of encompasses all of April, and then you have
this in May. And so you know, again, like I
think the idea that the greater idea for the for
the NFL was to create discussion around football, you know,
(07:55):
around the clock and around the calendar. And so you know,
they've sort of taken this week and tried to turn
it into a way to get people excited about you
know it's gonna happen in September and October November.
Speaker 9 (08:09):
Can I admit something, I don't really find the whole
schedule releas thing like entertaining at all.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
I mean, we know.
Speaker 9 (08:17):
Who, yeah, teams are playing, you know, yeah, but no,
but I'm saying we know who the teams are playing
at the end of the regular season, like we've known
who they're playing in January, we just don't know when
they're playing them, which, to be quite honestly, it doesn't
matter to me.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
I can probably give you a prediction.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
You know what's interesting? So here I think what's most
interesting in seeing who got screwed, you know what I mean,
like who's got.
Speaker 9 (08:39):
To play like with with what my weeks or like
the string of weeks like it.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
Was going to pull some outrageous travel trick like you remember,
do you guys remember what happened to the Jets a
couple of years ago where they had to play Monday
night in San Francisco, then come home from San Francisco
and you guys know what time you get home if
you're playing in New York right from a San Francisco
Monday night game, then they had to turn around and
(09:04):
play in Tennessee, which isn't that isn't that far away,
but still time zone away the following Sunday, and then
the following Thursday. After that they finally had their home opener.
Speaker 8 (09:16):
And so it's Monday, Sunday, Thursday.
Speaker 6 (09:18):
You know, you have the teams that were playing that
Christmas Wednesday?
Speaker 7 (09:21):
Was that two years ago?
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Now? Yeah? Right?
Speaker 7 (09:23):
Like, so all those teams had to play at the
end of the season Sunday, Saturday Wednesday. There's one team
I know this year that I think we're all going
to be talking about later.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
Today that's going to have to play on six of.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
The seven days the week.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
You know, Oh, can you tell us or no?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Is that z I.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
Can't tell you no, But like I mean, it's it's
six of the seven days of the week, which is
like and there's gonna be some outrageous traveling there too,
you know.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
So it's like.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
I mean, here's the problem with the travel.
Speaker 9 (09:54):
It's like, we know the Rams, we know the Seahawks,
we know like those NFC West teams, did we travel anyway?
And then you you factor in a couple of the things.
So it's just I don't know, I've never.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
Been in Niners.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
For example, the.
Speaker 8 (10:08):
Niners go to Australia and Mexico this year.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
And people are like, well, Mexico, that's not that.
Speaker 8 (10:13):
Big a deal. Well that was supposed to be a
home game, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (10:17):
Like, so so they're losing a home So the Australia
game is a road game, right, Like that's that's a
RAMS home game. But but then they but then they
lose them. They're losing a home game to go to Mexico,
and like that is a game at like at rate,
Like people don't realize the altitude thing there.
Speaker 6 (10:35):
I think it's like it it's it's like three or.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
Four thousand feet higher above sea level than Denver is.
You know, yeah, there's all the complications that like come.
Speaker 8 (10:47):
With playing in Mexico.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
So like like that's always like to me, like that's always.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
The most interesting thing because I do think like, and
you know, I have no way to like quantify this,
but you know, I think if you talk to enough
people like damn these.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
It's seven and fifty feet above sea level by the way.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
Yeah yeah, well yeah, so they I mean like you
look alike a lot of these like a lot of
these teams to tell you the ones that have that
sort of thing like where they're playing constantly Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Sat, all that different stuff. You know, like that takes
a toll on you, you know what I mean, like
that that like and like by the end of the year,
sometimes those teams are worn out, Like the Chiefs have
had to do.
Speaker 8 (11:29):
That two years in a row. And I think of
like that.
Speaker 7 (11:33):
If you talk to Chiefs people off the record, they
will tell you, like, like last year, like a lot
of it caught up with them where they were sort
of a dead ass.
Speaker 6 (11:41):
Team by the end of the year. And I do
think it takes a toll on a.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Team when you know, like again, like you don't want
to be the team that's playing Sunday at one every
week because that probably means you're not very good. But
there is a toll the better teams, you know, have
to pay for for having for being just sort of
you know, shoehorned into all these different broadcast windows.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
AB we were asking the question, was there any connection
or relevance to naming.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
New England in the game.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
You know, it's there a sensational lives factor, is there?
You said, you want people talking, They want people talking
about the NFL. I mean, is there any is there
any type of connection there.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
You want me to put on my my my cynics
at like I can be.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Be please please if you want.
Speaker 6 (12:40):
Me to be the cynic here, Okay, I would tell
you just look at the super.
Speaker 7 (12:45):
Bowl, right And I always tell people like when they
announce the halftime act for the super Bowl or whatever
like that, like whoever that is like all the answer
or stuff they're doing around the super Bowl that ain't
for me or you, you know what I mean, Like
they have us, Like they don't need to worry about
people like me or you tuning into the super Bowl, right,
Like that's not their concern. What gets you from sixty
(13:08):
to seventy million watching or eighty to ninety million watching
or one hundred to one hundred and ten million watching
is like getting the fringe person who could take it
or leave it, you know what I mean, Like the
person who wouldn't normally be watching the game, Like how
do you pull that person in?
Speaker 6 (13:24):
And if you wanted to really be a cynic here.
Speaker 7 (13:27):
And what's the biggest story, Like what's the story that's
captured the attention what's the football story?
Speaker 8 (13:32):
This offseason has captured the attention of the non football fan.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Oh bree saw signing.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
That wasn't that funny? That was not that funny by Jones.
Don't give him the pity.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
I thought that was good.
Speaker 8 (13:50):
I thought that was good.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
No, but but but but, like if I wanted to
be a cynic, like there's going to be like there
might be still some morbid curiosity like oh, like this
is interesting, you.
Speaker 8 (14:01):
Know what I mean?
Speaker 7 (14:03):
And you know, like so.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
That after the Diana Rassini stuff broke is the first
game of the year. That's that's right, that's the word.
Let's let's put it out there and address it the
way that that.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
They were because it's because it can't be the game.
The game was awful in the Super Bowl, right and
I and.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
I would actually argue, I would say, from.
Speaker 7 (14:25):
A football perspective, putting the Bears in that slot might
be more interesting.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 6 (14:30):
You know, because I just think.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
Caleb Williams coming back second like his third year now,
they were really they were an exciting team last year.
Speaker 8 (14:40):
You know, like I I sort of look at the
Bears as I think the Bears are a really interesting team.
Speaker 6 (14:45):
And I think you could make the argument.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
That the Bears, like Bears Seahawks has got as much
or more curb appeal from a football perspective, just football
than than than than Seahawks Patriots would But but.
Speaker 6 (15:00):
You know, like I do think you have that like
a little element.
Speaker 8 (15:02):
So if I'm being.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
Cynical about it, and I'm looking at.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
Like the actions of the league in the past, and
I'm saying, like, okay, like there's a focus on bringing
in like the non football fan or maybe the person
who could take it or leave it, Like maybe that
gives the game a little bit extra juice, you know,
where people.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Are circling back, people who don't pay much attention to
football are circling back at the beginning of the year.
Speaker 7 (15:23):
It's like, oh, yeah, you remember that story back in,
you know, in April, and may like that guy is
coaching in the opener night, you know, and maybe they
tune in and watch.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Albert Brier joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, senior
NFL reporter, lead content strategist at the MMQB. Get him
on x at Albert Breer. So I did want to
ask you about Devon Aitchen and sort of the deal
that he got, because there's been there was some speculation
would he be the next to go because they've traded
away everybody.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
They're clearly in a.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Rebuild, yet they give them a contract like that in Miami.
Do you find that a little confusing If you're planning
a rebuild and that's sort of where they're headed, why
would you invest that much money into a running back?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
I mean, I you know, I I go back and
forth in this because I think, first of all, like
Jale and Waddell have more trade value.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
Right, And like I do think that.
Speaker 8 (16:17):
To a large degree.
Speaker 7 (16:18):
This is a this is a teardown, and I don't think, like,
I don't think I'm treading on any new ground by
saying that they went into the draft with seven picks
in the first three rounds. They're going to be, you know,
I think I think they're gonna be very They're gonna
be very much like you know, building to towards twenty
(16:39):
twenty seven and twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
This year.
Speaker 7 (16:41):
However, they do have a new head coach and Jeff Afflee,
and like they're gonna have to build some belief with
the people in that locker room, you know, And if
Jeff Affley and Johnny Sullivan want to get their their
their program off off on the right foot, they're gonna
have to get guys to buy in.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
And so, like you know, it's going to take having
some players that can make competitive And that's sort of
what I think Malik willis is. I think Devin han
is that way too, and.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
Maybe allowing you to manage games a certain way because
you're not going to be the offense that you were
with Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle over the last few years.
Speaker 8 (17:19):
It's going to allow you to manage.
Speaker 7 (17:20):
Games a different way, play games a certain way, and
just give yourself a chance to be competitive on a
week to week basis. And I say that mostly because
I do know, and you know, Brady and LeVar, you
guys know it's better than me. They're the players in
that locker room don't care about your three year plan
or your four year plan. Like they want to know
what you can do for them right now. And what
they want is a chance to be competitive and a
(17:42):
chance to succeed individually. And you know, so you can't
like strip the team all the way down and just
have nothing for them as far as giving them a
chance to win.
Speaker 6 (17:53):
And I do think a chen gives them a chance
to at least play a certain way and maybe maybe
win a couple of games.
Speaker 8 (17:59):
Say yeah, no.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
I could see that.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
Look, he's twenty four, right, He's a building block not
just for right now but for the future too, So
I could see how that makes a lot of sense.
And honestly, I had the chance to listen to Jeff
Affley at a conference he was speaking at, and one
of the things that he referenced was the way they're
building this roster is similar to his experience being around
(18:22):
Kyle Shanahan in San fran and just the manner of understanding, like, hey,
let's get really young, let's like build this culture of
competitiveness where there's not a lot of guys who are
those like consummate pros or veterans that have been here
that they're spots solidified, Like we want everyone to compete,
everyone to you know, realize there are plenty of jobs
(18:45):
at stake, and that's why they signed a bunch of
undrafted free agents. They drafted a lot of players, and
he's trying to kind of flip the culture there in
that manner, and I think it might work in a
place like Miami where there's a lot of instractions. But
you know, if you're not a paid player, you can't
really feel comfortable enjoying many of those distractions because if
(19:08):
you do, you're either gonna you know, slip up and
not be as good as you can be in some
of those competitions, or you know, you're gonna end up
slipping up where something's gonna happen and they can move
on from.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
You, right, right, And I think San Francisco is like a.
Speaker 7 (19:20):
Good example because of how many guys they hit on
outside of the first round, you know, I mean, people
forget like that first draft. The two first round picks
for John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan that year were Solomon
Thomas and Ruben Foster. I mean one was just a
decent player and he's still kicking around, but decent player
(19:40):
but not worthy of being the third overall pick.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
And the other one was just an abject disaster, right
And but like, you know, doing things that way, they
were able to dig guys out of you know that
dig guys.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
Out of the later rounde of the draft, like George Kittle,
like you know, like like Fred Warner, you know, and yeah,
you had your highly drafted guys like your Nick Fosa's
and you're DeForest Buckner's and your Eric Armstead. But they
obviously have done a phenomenal job, you know, just drafting
and developing and getting guys and you know, outside of
(20:14):
the first round.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
And I could see.
Speaker 7 (20:15):
Where Jeff would would would see that as a model
for what he wants to do in Miami, especially with
the number of draft picks they had this year.
Speaker 9 (20:23):
All right, Albert, I got to ask you something about
the media rights deals because there's a lot.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Of things going around right now.
Speaker 9 (20:28):
I think CBS has already opened up their negotiation window
with the NFL. But you know, Netflix has said that
they don't want a full Slater package. I'm sure because
of their deep pockets, the NFL wasn't the case yet
Netflix is going to do at the NFL Honors show
for them. You know, where do you kind of foresee
this all shaking out? Because it feels like the NFL
(20:50):
wants to hit that twenty five billion a year and
the best way to do it is through media rights
and really with these streaming platforms.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
But we're just not there yet.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (20:59):
I think Netflix is a great example of it, Brady. Like,
I think part of the reason they want to go
to eighteen games obviously is to create more inventory.
Speaker 6 (21:07):
And so like I think, you.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Know, what they were able to do with Netflix is.
Speaker 6 (21:12):
They like, okay, like we're going to sell them like
an event package, right, So they have week.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
One week eighteen Thanksgiving even two on Christmas Day. That's
five games, and like that's going to be how Netflix
is going to brand them, right like that, you know,
we are there, we're event television, you know, and we're
going to hold you know, special event NFL.
Speaker 6 (21:32):
Games on our air, right, And you know, I think.
Speaker 7 (21:35):
The same thing is, you know, true of the international package.
So they want to go to sixteen games, and you know,
I think the way you do that is you say, okay,
like if you're playing an eighteen game season, everybody has
one international game every year, and then you play alternating
nine home.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Games, eight road games, one neutral.
Speaker 7 (21:58):
Site, and then the next year it's eight home games,
one neutral site, nine road games, right, and so then
you can create like your Sunday Morning package that you're
selling that off, you know, And so you know, I
think what they're trying to do now is is create
like different sorts of packages beyond just like what we've
(22:18):
all you know, grown up watching, which is Sunday Sunday afternoon,
Sunday night, Monday night. They created Thursday night, you know,
and then then I think, like you get this event
package with Netflix.
Speaker 8 (22:30):
I think the next one would.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
Be the international package, you know, which would be the
Sunday morning games, you know, at least the ones that
are in Europe. I think, with different time zones and
everything else. You know, like we'll see how all of
that goes.
Speaker 8 (22:41):
But that's how they're growing it. You know.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
It's just you know, they came to this determination Brady,
fifteen twenty years ago, whatever it was, where you know,
we only have so much more room to grow domestically up,
so we need to grow out, and we're growing out
means is growing inventory, is creating new inventory. So that's
been going on for a long time.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
That's two teams in.
Speaker 7 (23:02):
LA, that's you know, going to Europe, that's going to
seventeen games, that's expanding the playoffs. That's creating new inventory
that you can sell. And certainly, you know, what they're
doing with the television packages is the best example of it.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Get them on x at Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter,
lead content strategist at the MMQB and a Thursday tradition
here on this show. AB always appreciate it. Let's do
it again next week.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
Thanks guys, good luck tomorrow night. LeVar, I'm rooting for you.
Maybe I want to do it.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Thank you, sir.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Go your way, Go Chavs, Baby, go Javs. I've got
two games to work with.
Speaker 9 (23:41):

Speaker 8 (23:47):
Lorette lovarette.
Speaker 2 (23:49):

Wemby and the Spurs looking to close out the Minnesota
Timberwolves coming up. That'll be tomorrow. So we get a
(27:24):
little double header action in the National Basketball Association. So
we're gonna get a lot on the line as it
pertains to double barrel action or no, no, just doubleheader.
It's unfortunately all right.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
What would differentiate between girl doubleheaders here?
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Well, so double barrel would be if they're simultaneously going
on it's an old uh.
Speaker 9 (27:46):
Yeah, but Monday night football doesn't have them simultaneously going
one starts and the other one starts like yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
But it's a bit of staggers. They're going at the
same time. This one that's not gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Well, technically, if you understand double barrel and the manual has.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Never shot a double barrel shot, and.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
I'm actually just two games. It's two guns put together. Basically,
you're you can pull the trigger and actually only shoot
one side.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Of a double barrel gun. Yeah, I do know that.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Well do you know this, because I'm gonna go ahead
and go out on the lem and say that you don't.
But do you know this? The term double barrel action
is actually baseball term to when the bullpen was getting
up and they needed a righty and a lefty. They
would say double barrel action down to the bullpen, meaning
they got a righty and lefty going at the same time.
(28:38):
You guys are all about guns and violence, I am not,
so it is not a gun reference. It's actually an
old baseball reference trying to put you out a gun game.
It's a gun, bro, it's a gun. How would you
know you haven't shot anything up in years?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Man?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Would you know?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
You can? You can either do them at the same
time or you can do them separately.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Just depends on type. Of action the gun has.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
But with that being said, I don't know what your
reference was, and I'm just going to leave that where
you left it.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
Do you want to.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Pick that up? I missed the rocket launcher just at all, Timer.
I just miss it so much. Do you give the
Minnesota Timberwolves any hope whatsoever in forcing a Game seven?
Because Brady's called that, he said the Calves are closing
it out in six?
Speaker 9 (29:38):
Yeah, do you miss that? In the first segment. Here's
what I said, LeVar, I said, no, if.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
The Calves I didn't want it.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
I did not want Okay, you didn't want it, whatever,
I don't want it.
Speaker 9 (29:49):
If the Calves don't win Game six, they're not winning
in Detroit game seven. I feel like they'll lose momentum
and then goes back to Detroit. It ends in Detroit.
So to me, it's a all in must win.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Let them know. Game six for the Cleveland Cabinet Cavaliers.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
I felt like yesterday was the must win. Honestly, I
felt like whoever pulled out yesterday was going to be
the one who has the obviously the the inside track
of winning the series. I feel like they take the series.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
So wow.
Speaker 5 (30:23):
I think listen, They've they've shown that they can be
resilient Detroit. They've shown that they can bounce back even
in a game where they're they're facing elimination and coming back.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
So I don't count them out. I don't count them out.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
But I do think that yesterday was that was a
demoralizing victory or I should say demoralizing loss for for
the uh for the Pistons. I just don't see how
they bounce back from that. And to answer your question, Jonas,
Minnesota does have the capabilities of forcing it to a
game a game seven. They I believe that they have
(31:07):
played under their level of what they're capable of playing at,
which leaves some room for uh an improvement that could
lead to a win. But ultimately, this, this UH, this
Spurs team is a They're the better team, you know,
and the biggest, the big the biggest mismatch is Rudy
(31:29):
Gobert has been tasked with trying to deal with and
handle Wemby based upon the height, and he can't, he
can't keep up with him. And and that when your
best defender can't keep up with the other team's best
offensive weapon, and and he's pulling you from from out
(31:50):
of the key. It just opens up everything for the
Spurs to be able to run what they want to run.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yeah, because I find myself thinking, you get a really
rough Wenby up and and you know, just get him
to the foul line and then you realize, hey, shoots
eighty two percent there. You can't do that either. You
just there's no answer. They don't have an answer for him,
like whatever they're And Anthony Edwards made mention of it
postgame last game where he's like, yeah, there's just there's
nothing you can do about that. That's you know, you
(32:16):
got to just hope that you can hit enough shots,
keep it close and then and then get clutched down
the stretch should be pointed out here. As it stands
right now, the Spurs a four and a half point
favorite at Minnesota coming up tomorrow. Also, at the time
this show started two hours and forty minutes ago, the
Calves were a four and a half point favorite as
(32:37):
well too. That line has dropped to three.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
And a half, So.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Some big movement there.
Speaker 8 (32:46):
Power.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Yeah, So I'm just letting you know, man, you know,
maybe maybe people are feeling Detroit forcing the game seven
there and keep hope alive.
Speaker 9 (32:55):
Maybe there's some fans who just don't want, you know,
Lavarita to come out.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
I mean tomorrow when.
Speaker 5 (33:07):
This series I'll get a sex change. I knew, I
knew I needed to take the first first segment off.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
Man, I knew.
Speaker 5 (33:18):
I knew Q was going to come in and thick
with it, you know what I mean, lay it on,
super thick. The moment I saw them going to overtime,
I was like, I got to hear cue tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Then I woke up this morning, I was like, oh,
look at that.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Overslept, just didn't want to do it, just didn't want
to deal with it. Just didn't want to deal with it.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
I want to say.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
I went to sleep kind of depressed that I was
going to have to hear all of this mess this morning.
But then I thought to myself, maybe I'm not. Maybe
I wasn't depressed because I'm a Donovan Mitchell fan, like
I am.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Well, so I'm.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
Glad he's doing well, but he lets me down every time,
and and he's not going to disappoint this year. That's
all I'm gonna say. Some Way, somehow, if you trying
to put.
Speaker 4 (34:03):
Your bush on him, are you see what you're trying
to do.
Speaker 5 (34:08):
Okay, if I find my way back to being supportive
of him, he's gonna he's going to know that bus.
Speaker 9 (34:15):
That bus already left. Brother, You're not You're not on
our bus anymore. Right, We're headed back to Cleveland without
you for game six. Okay, you can't hop on now,
all right, we're not selling any fun.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
I would not. I would never go back on what
I say. So I'm a wait, never.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
Never.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
I mean I chose them to lose the the series.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
I'm not talking about I'm talking about getting a sex change.
I'm talking about the series. I mean, for what it's worth.
I mean, I'm like, I'm like Chris, I'm like Bruce.

You know, he built an empire, and I got enough
money put away. I got on. I got it, I
got it. I got two Arrington mails so I can
keep my part. I held up my end of the bargain.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
To my dad. So we we do have two.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
Arrington's that that had potential to create more Arrington's. And
I have daughters, and my daughters would would do my
fingernails and we would do hair and make up together.
I mean, it would work out if I really wanted
to be that person.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
You're probably a better driver too, So there's that.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
