We'll also have shot talk, Rob Gene, we gotta throw
a shop talk in here because you saw something online
(01:29):
right that got you started.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Oh, I saw something online that had me shookth Like
when I saw it, I could not fathom what I
was reading and I had to contact the source for
what we're going to talk about.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Okay, do you got more details on this?
Speaker 2 (01:45):
No?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
They still choosing to be vague, which I think I
can makes it a better topic.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
I do because I think then we both know how
this all went down. So you're a fan of the show,
it involves someone who's on the show, but who's not here,
wink wink. You should know who we're talking about a
little bit on that coming up the last call next
hour as well. So a lot to get you on
this funky flashback Friday, Rob g I do want to
get into something that it's interesting to say the least,
(02:12):
and it's one of those you kind of gotta hmm
this thing right a little bit. You kind of gotta
say the things that make you go home, and that
is the NBA and what we're finding out about now
when it comes to the gambling issue with Malik Beasley.
So you recall we've had conversation about Malik Beasley being
investigated when it came to some gambling. There was some
(02:32):
abnormal bets on Malik Beasley. And then you know what
the internet does. The Internet starts interneting and showing game footage,
just some odd things. Some of the running back some
of them were agregious. I'm not gonna lie. So you
start to see those where he didn't shoot here, or
he didn't get back on defense there, and so the
internet started the worst.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
One where there's like five seconds left in the game
and he gets the inbound sprints down the court and
lays it in and it cuts a endpoint deficit to
eight and the spread was nine, and you're.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Like oh, Rob Ge okay, say it with me. Things
that make you go No, that's right, Mary Man. Now
here's worth interesting for me. So let me just get
the details real quick. Leak Beasley, he's no longer a
target of the federal gambling investigation that's conducted by the
Eastern District of New York. His attorneys told ESPN that today,
(03:25):
so months after the investigation, Malik, he's uncharged and is
not the target of this investigation. So in allegation with
no charge in diaping or conviction should never have the
catastrophic consequence that it has from a leak. It's an
interesting point because you and I were talking earlier how
this all worked out. Him supposed to be a free
agent coming off for a really really good year for
the Pistons might have cost him forty two million dollars,
(03:48):
which forty two million dollars if I didn't do something,
it is crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
We gotta fight.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
We got subscratched, so somebody got to see me out
in the back alley or something. But with that being said,
Rob Gi, it leads to a larger conversation for me
at least, and that is something that I've been looking
at and considering and we've talked about this gambling because
for a multitude of reasons lately when it comes to
the NBA and something don't smell right or sit right
with me with this when you break it down, I
(04:15):
think the NBA, NFL we're seeing it a lot, rob G.
How many MLB conversations have we had with gambling where
pitchers have thrown pitches and they've had some concerns about
those pitches, right, And a lot of this comes with
prop bets and concerns about, well, this pitch is gonna
be over ninety miles or it's gonna be a or
(04:35):
a ball or a strike. In the NBA, well this
guy's gonna you know, shoot or five threes, and there's
concerns about that. Isn't it funny or ironic that on
the exact same day that the NBA cleared Terry Rozier
of gambling violations, you know what they announced on that
same day, Robb G, what's that that Malague Beasley was
under a federal investigation for the same thing. That ain't
(04:57):
no coincidence. That is called damage control, right, Because if
the Terry Rozier is going on and some new facts
about that come out and me, you and Rob Parker
talking about it for another week, two weeks, three weeks,
a month, and you got Malik Beazy going on that
we talked about for another two three months and something
going on, and you got still the Jonte Porter hanging
out over there. Well, that's a lot going on for
(05:20):
one league that is in bed with the fan duels,
the DraftKings and all these sports book that you are
the ones that you can name as well. So the
NBA has been going through this. If you recall the
Tim donahe issue back in two thousand and seven where
he fixed games for the mob then and that scandal
nearly destroyed the league's credibility with a lot of people
(05:41):
because people were saying, well, what's going on? People were saying,
I knew something was fishing in two thousand and two
Game six NBA Western Conference Finals Lakers Kings, So all
these things, does that.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
One totally get him a game? Oh yeah, I don't
caring what Tim Donnie did. We won that game, fair
and square. Okay, that's what we're saying, Rob Da is
what we're saying. Okay, Well, I got a bridge I
want to sell you in Brooklyn too.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But here's the thing. The league got past that. The
league moved on, and I think Robb Gi they don't
want anything else to make us look back in the
rear view mirror, to hop in the dolory and go
back in time and start looking at that donnahye scandal
and start to look at these things and go, something
don't seem right. And now is their concern? When you
got Beasley in the crosshairs of all this, when you
have Terry Rose here in the federal investigation going on,
(06:33):
when we had Johntay Porter last season as well, these
things are happening more and more frequently. And when you
have even Michael Porter junior, John Jay's older brother talking
about how easy it is on the podcast saying, man,
you got guys coming from nothing. Oh yeah, unless say
they're a lower you know, a smaller player not making
a lot of money to a way player like his
(06:53):
brother was, and the homies back home, I ain't got nothing,
and you can say, man, look they got it under that.
I'm gonna play. I'm gonna get five rebounds, I'm gonna
get three or four and my handstring hurts the rest
of this game. Wink wink, you might want to put
a diw on your boy. My back's tighten up. You
might want to put five hundred on your boy. It's
(07:14):
so easy now with these prop bets and the prompt
bets lead for a major concern for the NBA, the NFL,
and MLB, and and we keep having all these conversation investigations,
and I wonder when it's gonna come to a head
where the NBA and all these other leaders are gonna
have to go back to DraftKings FanDuel and be like, Uh,
we're gonna have to figure something out. Either keep doing
(07:36):
what you're doing with or not, but we gotta change
the prop bets or something, or they're just gonna try
to finesse this enough and play magician enough. Rob Ji
to say, look over here, wait, look over here, Terry
just cancer. Okay, well look over here. Belak Be's is
going ha ha, no, no, no, what investigation. I don't
remember what you're talking about, and hope that we forget.
But this game keep happening two three times in the
season because it's gonna make people go, well, what the
(07:58):
heck is really going on? David Sturt, Adam Silver.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Yeah, you know what's funny is, through all of this situation,
you know Terry Rozier, you know Malik Beasley now and
the John Say Porter situation is the only definitive comment
that we've gotten from the NBA and the Players Association
for that matter, is we would like to adjust the
prop bets with our partners so that if you're on
a ten day contract, you're not eligible for a prop bet.
(08:22):
That's the only thing that they've said that, like, Hey,
we are gonna get rid of this, We're gonna get
rid of that, We're gonna institute some kind of governing body. No, no, no,
nothing like that. It's just the ten day guys. That's
what we gotta worry about. And that's what and that's
what's funny about this whole situation is you mentioned the
Michael Porter junior comments on that podcast. It's not quite
(08:44):
as bad as that infamous R. Kelly interview with Touring
Right Tory say you say his name where they ask
him like, are you attracted to teenage girls? And the
obvious answer for our Kelly in that situation was no, absolutely,
not I am not absolutely And instead he says, but
when we say teenage, how old are we talking how
(09:05):
do we like, what are you doing?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
And so for Mike is amazing, like what Blake's three times?
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Like wait what, Like I know, I know R Kelly's
publicist quit right there, Like you know, I'm done. There's
there's nothing for me to do with this. It's a wrap.
And so for Michael Porter exactly, so for Michael Porter
Junior to go on the podcast and and and if
they're going to talk about Johnson the whole situation, all
he had to say is that was a terrible decision
by him. He's learned his lesson. I hope every NBA
(09:35):
player from now on will understand what kind of mistake
it was. And he threw away his career over you know,
five thousand, eight thousand dollars whatever it was.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Instead, he goes, well, you know, it's real easy.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
If we wanted to manipulate the prop bets and if
I got a buddy and I want to make a
couple of racks on it, it's not hard for me
to make it happen. And it's like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
That's not the alley we want you to talk about that.
People go that ain't a bad idea, you know, the
way you made it sound. It does seem more I
think about it.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
But like, but this is and again we're not saying
that the NBA is being nefarious, that this is all
some big cover up, But I'm not saying it's not
a cover up, because this is something that's been going
on now my entire life. Basically, you mentioned you got
the gambling. Now before that, it was the Tim Donnegie situation.
(10:28):
Even somewhere in the middle between the Donnegie and the gambling,
there's an official in the NBA, Scott Foster. You know
what his nickname is.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
The Extender.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
You don't get a nickname like the Extender unless you
got a reputation for finding a way to turn a
four game series into a five game series.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I'm just saying, don't let Chris Paul here.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
And if we want to go back even further, if
you want to go back to the eighties and the
NBA Draft lottery, I don't know about you, but I've
been told a legend leave that the reasoning Patrick Ewing
ended up with the New York Knicks because the envelope
was frozen.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Hey listen, it's hot in the summer, and if I
fill a cold envelope I'm gonna know which one is which.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
It's just the NBA has got this weird history where
they I don't know if it's on purpose. I'm not
gonna say it's on purpose because it's all alleged, but
they traffic in some very suspicious activity.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Well, let's stay in traffic. Let's be all up in
the hole lane. Okay, Lebron James from where Northeast Ohio.
Who happens to get the number one pick? Cleveland? Lebron
goes there, right, Lebron leaves Cleveland. Man, I'm sorry, Cleveland.
(11:49):
I can't believe y'all lost the biggest player in the
league as a shime and all that good stuff for
at least that's a shame. It'd be crazy if we
just happen to give y'all a number one pick. I'm
just saying. I'm just saying, man, I've been here before,
New Orleans.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
I know that Anthony Davis just forced a way out
of town. That's a terrible thing.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
It's it's just happened to be this.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
But you know what, it worked out that you guys
just want the draft lottery to the greatest draft prospect
of the last ten years.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
I Am Williamson just coincid dink quinky dinky man Dallas,
you lost Luca, y'all traded him? Oh man, that's wild.
Well there's another big time college star that everybody loves.
Just be crazy if he just became available. And I
alley you if you just number one pick when you
had a what two chance of getting it. I'm just
(12:37):
saying with my tinfoil illumitum hat on that. Uh, the
NBA does have some suspicious things that coincidentally tend to
happen quite often.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Roger, Yeah, No, why do you think it is the
NBA that this happens to.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
And not you know, actually I actually actually have answer.
I think more than anything, I think you'll feel me
on this. One player can change the n BE, your team,
your organization much easier. Yes, aside from five six quarterbacks
in the NFL, one player doesn't make that much of
a difference. For instance, Let's say, uh, if I took
(13:20):
away Justin Jefferson, the Vikings will be sick. But if
I gave you another, you know, if you're another receiver
step up, you can still compete and have a chance
to win. Now, if I take away Patrick Mahomes, Josh
Allen or Lamar Jackson, we got to know a whole
another conversation. The Cowboys can lose Micah and if they
(13:41):
go on a row, you never know mess around to
be you know, eleven and six sneak in the postseason,
but they could be okay. But if I give you
twenty one year old Lebron, James Derrick, Rose, Kobe Bryant, Shaq,
Steph Curry, you know these young guys that you can
have potentially for seven, eight to twelve years, that can
(14:01):
change the trajectory or franchise forever. Tim Duncan forever, Patrick Ewing.
The Knicks didn't win, but they were always competitive for
ten to fifteen years. And Orlando, you get shat, what
do you do? You go straight to the finals. A
couple of seasons later, Cleve against Lebron. What do they
do go to the finals way before they were supposed
to know? Seven? You know, Steph Curry changed the entire
(14:22):
direction of the franchise. So my point is the NBA,
little things like that can change your franchise for quite
a bit of time versus the NFL, where it's much harder.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Well speaking and changing the direction of a franchise. There's
a franchise in the NFL that would wish that their
star pass rusher would change the speed and is a dometer.
That was a terrible segment, but we'll get into that next.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
It wasn't bad at all. I love it. It's de robz
and for Rob pe kelvin Washington on the fucking flash

Right now, Rob G and I getting ready to talk
about Miles Garrett, who's been having a little bit of
an issue, actually a lot of bit of issue at
this point with the roads. Here's Miles Garrett when he
(17:00):
was impressed about it.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
What is it like to be in that car and
seeing that it's predominant freak up to more.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Than one hundred.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
I do honestly rather talk about football in this team
than anything I'm doing off field, other than the.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Back to school no event that I did the other day.
But I mean, people want to know.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
I want to know about that.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
People want to know a lot of things. Due daggd,
we do want to know. That was a final question,
What does it feel like? That was such a set
up question, right because if you just ask it, maybe
he knows where it's going early He's like, I ain't
trying to hear that. But when you try to find
a way to do like, oh g golly shucks, you know,
I just wish I could ride around like that.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Never gone that fast before, I've never go I haven't had.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
One of some of the cars that you've been able
to drive. You think you might bait him in actually
answer that, and that is absolutely not the case. So, uh,
for context, what the what the reporter was asking there?
Miles Garrett has now been ticketed eight times, Rob Geez
eight times for speeding. And what makes it even more
(18:08):
interesting to me is that somebody will say, all right, well,
that's not that big of a deal, right, I mean,
we all speed. I'll be the first one to say
that I've got speeding tickets, right. But when you start
to add up to eight and not eight in his
life since he was sixteen, you're talking eight since he's
been a Brown, and that's an absurd amount of number.
But also when it starts to affect Rob g to me,
(18:30):
your actual on field play, that's when I really have
an issue because this isn't something where it's all leave
him alone, that's his personal life, blah blah blah. We
can move on. No, he actually had to miss time
on the field because he got into a wreck a
few years back. He got into a car crash that
messed him up, beat him up pretty bad, and he
had to miss a game. So now you're talking about
(18:52):
an habitual issue that is a problem that is affecting
the gameplay. That is affecting me if I'm the Browns
and ownership, and more importantly, just as someone who would
care about your life, if I'm a friend or if
I'm you know, a leader on the team, it's affecting
your health. It could be it could have been dangerous.
You could have not gotten back up from that accident.
Someone could have been killed. How many conversations have me,
(19:13):
you and Rob Parker have had over the last couple
of months about this? Yep, Rashie Rice. Yeah, to be
an example, Uh huh. So this is concerning from the
best player on our team, supposed to be a leader
on our team, and now I got to look at
the team as a whole because you're doing and got
a couple already. He ain't even been there that long.
(19:33):
So what the heck is going on in Cleveland? You
know what? I was just in Cleveland last week or
a week and a half ago, whatever it was, and
I can tell you what. The city is clean, the
downtown is bigger than you think, but ain't nobody there.
And maybe that's the problem. They got these free roads
and people think they are hanging out with fast and
Furious and they't doing it. For the family. What is
going on with Miles Garrett, Rob's family?
Speaker 3 (19:55):
I got family, now you with the nail run of
the mind. First off, of course, it's a safety issue, right,
Like it's one thing like you know around here you
get cot speeding on what eighty five eighty seven. You
don't really have that much open road in LA to
really open it up, right, This dude's hitting one hundred
on the regular, to a point where they got to
ask him, Michael, what does it feel like to go
one hundred miles an hour? Because you do it basically
every week and a half, it feels like you know
(20:16):
all about it, right, So like that's number one. But
number two I think this is a bigger conversation is
this is indicative as to why the Cleveland Brown is
such a dumpster fire and have been. Because you could
point to the quarterback situation, and that's true, right, But
Miles Garrett, in addition to being the best player that
they've had there, you know, basically in my lifetime, he
(20:37):
is supposed to be the leader of the team. And
when the leader of the team is number one, this
reckless off the field and doing something like this repeatedly
over and over.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
It.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
It sets a point to where the leadership is not there.
And this is something that was actually talked about by
the athletics Jason Lloyd back in March when he signed
that big contract. He said in his article quote, It's
well known within the Browns organization, Miles Garrett frequently late
to the facility. He skipped mandatory team activities on multiple occasions,
and normally veterans will police this kind of thing. The
(21:08):
problem is he's the veteran, right, there's no one there
to police him, and in a situation the police exactly
and the situation like this. I'm not saying that this
is the reason it happened, but when you see your
best player, your leader, getting popped for speeding on an
annual basis, I'm not shocked in that Shador Sanders, a young,
impressionable rookie, would get caught doing something similar like that.
(21:32):
That you're setting the tone for the team and the
franchise when your best player keeps doing stuff like this.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You want to know. I know he's been questions about leadership,
question about being lai, question about the tickets and all that.
You want to know how I know how you know?
Because if we were to play that back, and the
first thing he says is, you know, I just want
to talk about my charitable acts. When you start going
to the charrible axe in your charitable foundations, did I
(21:57):
know something up? You know, I just want to talk
about what I mean to the community. Yeah, something up?
You know, so automatically know that. Uh, but yeah, you
bring up. I mean, listen, you're right about he's supposed
to be the face of the franchise because at that time,
up until now and even now, we still don't know
who the face is. As far as a quarterback. You
gotta have him participating in being exactly where he needs
(22:18):
to be. So hopefully, hopefully man on a serious now
and we're joking right now, but on a serious hell tip,
hopefully he'll learn from his lesson Robberie, because that could
have been really bad for him. You know what I mean,
that he could have not gotten up.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
Yeah, he already's already flipped the car.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Once exactly, and he's too big to be flipping cars
around these streets. Facts, way way too big. All right,
on the way we have we're gonna have a conversation
on the other side of the trending with Joel Corey,
former NFL agency BS sports NFL analysts. You're looking forward
to that right now, man, boss. Uh, we we'll already ask.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
You so an.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Uh yes, Vaniana, yes, good job. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 6 (23:09):
Well, we've got a lot of NFL going on right now.
It's Week three of the NFL preseason. Jake Elliott has
hit two field goals for the Eagles, a fifty one
yard field goal and a fifty three yard field goal,
and they're on top of the Jets six zero store
early in the second quarter. Joe Milton with the rushing
touchdown puts Cowboys on the scoreboard against the Falcons seven
zero halfway through the first Late in the first quarter
(23:31):
of Vikings up on the Titans three zero, and the
Bears and the Chiefs just got going in their preseason game.
Earlier today, the Commanders traded running back Brian Robinson Junior
to the San Francisco forty nine ers for a six
round pick in twenty twenty six, and multiple reports that
the Vikings and the Panthers have had trade talks involving
Carolina wide receiver Adam Thielen. In baseball, the Giants are
(23:51):
on top of the Brewers two zero, top of the
second inning. Guardians are edging the Rangers one zero bottom
of the second. Also, Ranger center fielder Evan Carter you
can miss the rest of the regular season with.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
The fractured right wrist.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
The Rays are up on the Cardinals right now, five
to one, bottom of the third, all met so far
against the Braves seven to one. Top of the fourth inning.
Blue Jay is up on the Marlins three to one,
top of the sixth. The Royals have a three to
one lead over the Tigers after five innings. The Orioles
have cut their deficit to one against the Astros. Houston
up four to three, top of the fifth. Red Sox
and Yankees are scoreless, but the fans still got a show.
(24:26):
A squirrel went crazy in the fourth inning at Yankee Stadium,
and obviously it's kind of hard to catch a scroll.
It happened for I saw a whole minute of the
scirrel running around, so I don't know how long it
took for them to actually get the squirrel. So even
though it's a scoreless game, at least the fans got
a little action of some sort.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
The Nationals have tied the game against the Phillies.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
It's three to three.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Bottom of the sixth inning. Back to you guys, thank
you get as much to boosta.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
All right, it's the odd couple. We got Rob g
for Rob Parker kelvin Washington on a funky flashback Friday.
We're joined out by Joel Corey, former NFL Agen CBS
Sports NFL analyst Corey Joel on X and by the way,
if you got AK and E step back. Joy's not cooperating.
Some days your body's just like nope. Thankfully on those
days there's a lead. With just one pill. Lee provides
(25:13):
up to twelve hours of paying relief so you can
keep moving. Use as directed, Joel. What's going on? How
you doing doing great?
Speaker 5 (25:19):
How you guys doing?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
We're doing great, man, thank you for asking. We're doing
better than a Cowboys fan on this here Friday. What
is going on? We got Jerry beefing with agents. We
got Jerry ignoring agents and trying to do back alley
or back of the club deals in Vegas, signing Mike
into some deal on a napkin. What's up, Joel? How
(25:40):
this can't happen right?
Speaker 5 (25:43):
Well, this isn't anything news for Jerry. He's been trying
to circumvent agents for over thirty years when I first
got started. He did that with the client that my
bosses are representing, Jimmy Smith, and that draft ride receivers
(26:07):
weren't teams of waiting to take wide receivers. And what
Jerry did was Jimmy on the phone while they're on
the clock and tell them we're going to take you,
but you have to agree to this particular below market contract.
Jimmy's a little anxious because the draft isn't going the
way we thought. We thought he might be a lad
(26:27):
first round pick instead a second round pick. He agrees
to it. When he cuts to my bosses, they're pretty
upset about it, called Jerry and tell them we don't
have an agreement. You're negotiating of us and a market
contract got done shortly thereafter. So this isn't new for Jerry.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Well, Joe, isn't there protocol I have to imagine this
protocols in place to prevent this kind of thing, Because
if that was the case, then why wouldn't every agent
just contact his player in the locker room, you know,
up in my suite whatever to get a deal done
and cut the agent out. Isn't there something that would
safeguard this.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
Yeah, well it's not. The NFLPA didn't force any type
of safeguards. But you know Jerry is going to do
something like this, so you really make your players aware
that he is going to approach you. And what Micah
should have done is at best, say I think I'm
(27:29):
the best defensive player in the NFL and I should
be paid accordingly, and you work everything else out with
my agent. Don't engage in any back and forth. So
that's where I put a little bit of the blame
on Micah as Bryant had an interesting way of dealing
with that several years ago, from what he said on
(27:51):
a podcast last year that he asked Jerry if Jerry
could cover him on the football field, and he's like, no,
I get the store. Wait and he posed the question
to Jared, and why do you think I would be
able to negotiate with you? And that ended it and
get it to deal with DES's representatives.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I want to ask you this one, Joe switching gears
a little bit here, something we talked about in our
show a handful of weeks ago. But I feel like
I kind of just rolled on and that is the
arbitration rule and I found the NFL was urging team
owners to restrict fully guaranteed contract for quarterbacks after the
Deshaun Watson deal, and we know that it got found
to come out. They had an arbitration about it and
(28:34):
they found inclusion. But you had the NFLPA not even
telling the players for six months until they were kind
of forced to tell them, like, oh, yeah, my bad,
I was meant to tell you that. How big of
a deal is that? And and how big is it
a deal that you have the nfl PA not even
telling the players and kind of having to find this
out on their own and and and when they could
be maybe using that in the favor of the players.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
Oh, it's a huge deal. It was concealed. That's one
of the big reasons why Lloyd Howe is no longer
the executive director. Yeah, I'm sure the agents of quarterbacks
and other high profile players would have loved to have
known that information right after the decision was rendered so
(29:19):
they could try to use it to their advantage and negotiations.
Speaker 6 (29:24):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
I don't know why the NFLPA wouldn't try to weaponize
that against the NFL. But then again, Lloyd how is
the guy that when at first asked about an eighteenth game,
essentially said who loves no football? Who doesn't love more football?
I sure do? When your proper response should be, will
(29:44):
have an eighteenth game over my dead BikeE right right?
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Joe Corey, Formutive AGENCYBS Sports, you're on the odd couple. Well,
speaking of that Dishaun Watson contract, David Willigette represented Deshaun Watson,
also raised Michael Parsons looking at his history, like five
of his biggest clients have all at one point demanded
a trade in order to get the money that they're after,
(30:11):
which to me feels like a new kind of thing
in the NFL. We see this a lot in the NBA,
but this feels like a new development in the NFL.
Could you imagine a situation where this kind of does
become par for the course for the best players, where like, Hey,
if I'm not going to get the money that I'm
asking for, I'm going to demand trade. I'm gonna scrub
all my socials and eventually you're going to give it
to me. Because that's what great players, that's what they get.
Speaker 5 (30:34):
Player empowerment in the NBA is much different than the NFL.
What you see in a contract dispute. Part of the
agent calculus or playbook, it is to demand a trade.
Trey Henderson demanded one early in the offseason, Karen McLaurin
demanded one. Michael Parsons day Quinn said at the time,
(30:59):
with McCall run trading me request, that's just part of
the business. Sir Watson was a little bit different. He
was a little upset about how the head coaching process
took place in how his suggestions were ignored. He was
under contract for four years at the time, and they
(31:20):
mutually agreed that he wouldn't play that year. The Texans
didn't want him around after all the sexual assought allegations
came out. He didn't want to play for them either,
so he was basically on the fifty three man roster
getting paid. They wasted roster spot in him. So that
was a little bit different than the other ones.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
I want to ask you this. You mentioned it earlier
the eighteen games. You kind of were joking, hey, over
my dead body. But is that because it already is
in the air and the NFL is the bohemians and
the king of sports in North America, specifically the States,
is it almost inevitability? Me once it's out there, once
(32:01):
we've talked about it, shows like this converse about it,
it's gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
Yeah, it's going to happen. I'm not sure if it
will be before the end of this collective our agreement,
which runs through the twenty thirty season. The NFL has
the right to opt out of the media rights deals
I think after twenty twenty nine, so they would want
to have the eighteenth game in place by then, but
(32:28):
you're gonna need to negotiate with the players union if
they ever get their act together, to do it sooner
rather than later. One of the things that didn't help
is some of the players came out and said, as
long as the extra game check and a bye week,
I'm okay, No, the eighteenth game should be much more
valuable to the owners than that. Those should be given
(32:52):
that you're gonna get an extra game check and the
bye week, but there should be substantial concessions for that.
I'm not optimistic that the union will get substantial concessions
because anytime there is a workstop it it doesn't matter
what sport. The bees meeting billionaires will outlast him the millionaires.
(33:15):
At least when the NBA has had workstoppages, the players
have more resolved, and we'll take it into the season.
The last time, in twenty eleven, the NFL players caved
before any preseason games were played.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
Well, well, you're gonna have to watch and wait and
see and once, like I said, Joel, once this is
out there, I feel like it's an inevitability. Uh, it's
gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
It's gonna happen, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Yep. And by the way, Joe and Roger they care
about so much about safety, let's just keep adding games,
all right, Joe, thank you so much. Appreciate you man,
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Joe, Thanks y'all, thanks for having me guys.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
No dal have a great weekend, all right, rober g
We got to have an improv to shop Talk.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Right, something was so egregious that happened earlier on Friday
and we had to scrap the whole run down and
put in a shop Talk.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
We had to add it to the show for sure.
You'll hear it. Next, it's the yacup for Rob Parker.

time out for an impromptu shop talk.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
That's right, it is shop talk. You're on the Odd
Couple the same when we talk about something happen outside
of the world of sports, and this week's topic comes
to us courtesy of.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Our very own Rob Parker, because as you know.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
He's been traveling the Parker Thank you traveling the globe
about a week now. We're doing it all next week two.
And as a result, he's been a lot of airports
so earlier on Friday, he was taking a shuttle from
his hotel to the airport to go to his next stop,
and according to Rob here's what he tweeted out.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
I've seen it all.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
The shuttle driver from my hotel just refused my tip
because it wasn't enough. Shaking my head hashtag the shame
of it all. People have asked him how much he gave.
He's leaving that up to your imagination, which I feel
makes us even better.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Oh yeah, but dub your thoughts. First thing I said
on his Instagram rob Gie, I said, well, did the
tip jingle because it sounded like he might've gave him
seventy five cent whatever was in his pocket. He said no,
He said, nobody carries change anymore. But it does make
you wonder with Rob. Rob is the most frugal, cheapest
(36:10):
person and also the biggest spender. I know, it's a
weird complexity. If you ask me the thing, I'll tell
you if he's gonna spend it or not, and it'll
be weird. He'll literally walk out of a store because
the soda went up forty cents from two days ago.
But he'll walk out with a Gucci hat, Gucci hoodie,
and his very expensive car and it won't make any sense.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
The duality of man, the.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Duality of Rob Parker. It kind of reminds you of
that Chris Rock character. And I'm gonna get you, sucker,
how much for one rid? And he complains, how much
a lot? How about you just let me half a rid?
And ultimately at the end he pulls out a lot
of money. You're like, wait a minute, you've been complaining
about the price of ribs. He just pulled out about
a thousand dollars. So that's Rob Parker. I have a
feeling it was probably insultingly low, that it wasn't worth
(37:00):
me say I was carrying all your stuff, took your
luggage out, blah blah whatever. It's just what even just
you you you keep it bro.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
So if you had to guess how much, was it.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Two dollars and the signed a little greater or less
than two or less? Like I think it was two
dollars or less, right, Manzi.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
Even if it was that you don't turn down bills.
I never turn it down to like, even if it
was one dollar.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
That's why there's there's something we don't know here.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
I love Rob, but there's something we don't know.
Speaker 6 (37:28):
Even if it was one dollar, the person takes it
and maybe rolls their eyes, but if it's bills.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
You just take it.
Speaker 7 (37:34):
Well, go ahead, Rob gie, well they under two dollars.
Under two dollars, go ahead, go ahead, doub no, go ahead, Okay.
So my thing is, I, yes, I agree with you guys.
I believe it was two dollars. I'm gonna say it
was a dollar. That's what I think it was.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
But here's where I think this is why I wish
Rob would answer a question. But he's not going to
think he's doing it on purpose. What I really believe
happened is he didn't give it him a dollar or
two singles, right. What I think most likely happened. Rob
gave him a five or a ten and said, hey,
can I get change back? And that's what led to
(38:11):
him saying, you know what, might as well keep it.
I don't need that.
Speaker 1 (38:13):
TI absolutely he gave He gave him a ten and
asked for nine backs, and the person said, I ain't.
Nobody got time for that it's not even worth me
digging through my purse, my this, my that, my wallet,
trying to find a change, you know, kicking up dust
trying to find it. Just here you go, man, I
took you to where you needed to go. Terminal five?
(38:34):
Is that way? Here's bad, here's your luggage. Have a
great day. You tell me you can't break a ten
for me.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
On pat your sixpender on the show? What do you
think Rob? Tip number one and numbers? Do you have
an issue with the guy giving it back? Well, here's
the thing. I ain't passing up no money.
Speaker 8 (38:50):
If I'm getting tip, it doesn't matter if it's a dollar,
fifty cents or ten or ten dollars, I'll be like
money yay.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Number two? What did I think Rob gave I?
Speaker 8 (38:59):
Like here idea of the concept of oh he gave
him a ten just for you know, a dollar back
or whatever. Like I I'll say a dollar fifty. He's
gonna do the Hank Hill thing, like so you can
work fift a dollar fifty dollar fifty so you could
work towards better next time.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
That's funny.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
Yeah, this is Do you think he also got his
bag of clothes in there? Like hey, no, no, no, no,
leave that on the shuttle because I want you to
keep that.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
That might actually be with the person was completely over.
I don't want any tips from you. Matter of fact,
what if that is the tip? So minutes money? What
if that is the tip Roger with six foot four
clothes And it was like hey, and all that said
was odd. Couple this odd. Couple that with Chris Bruceard
and he was like, you can have these marry that
you just bought new furniture.
Speaker 3 (39:43):
What happened you know you got money from out of
your pockets? You just told me about it.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Yeah, oh my gosh, it was. It hurt.
Speaker 7 (39:51):
It hurt, But of anything, I think Rob probably gave
like a dollar two dollars And.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
Would you give it back if someone gave you a dollar.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
Or two dollars? No, no, you wouldn't give it back.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
It's this change thing you said.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
You just wouldn't give back bills.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
You would be annoyed by it, but you wouldn't give
it back.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
Allow it. But Manti recognized him and they were like,
this dude has big money. He's got a national radio show,
he does this, he does that, and this man just
gave me a dollar or two. Man, I'm good, bro,
keep it. You think him on World Stars so much?
Speaker 3 (40:22):
World Star?
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Does that exist? Yes? They're going on Twitter? Oh gosh, no,
I does that exists.
Speaker 6 (40:30):
I think you guys are right that she probably asked
for change, and that's when the person was like, never mind,
you keep it.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Just go ahead, bro, it ain't even working more than
I do. Yeah, I mean, that's that's absolutely what happened.
But maybe we'll get the truth out of him when
he comes back, or maybe somebody oppress him enough on
social media and he'll he'll give it to us. I
think he was mad when I said did a jingle
though the actual tip he would give him sixty five
cents or something like that. I think he was mad.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
You're on the outre leefrom right now?
Speaker 1 (40:55):
Yeah? Oh yeah, that don't bring that up. You might
not be on the show anymore.

CBS Sports NFL analysts gonna join us at the bottom

We'll also have shot talk, Rob Gene, we gotta throw
a shop talk in here because you saw something online
(01:29):
right that got you started.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Oh, I saw something online that had me shookth Like
when I saw it, I could not fathom what I
was reading and I had to contact the source for
what we're going to talk about.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Okay, do you got more details on this?
Speaker 2 (01:45):
No?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
They still choosing to be vague, which I think I
can makes it a better topic.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
I do because I think then we both know how
this all went down. So you're a fan of the show,
it involves someone who's on the show, but who's not here,
wink wink. You should know who we're talking about a
little bit on that coming up the last call next
hour as well. So a lot to get you on
this funky flashback Friday, Rob g I do want to
get into something that it's interesting to say the least,
(02:12):
and it's one of those you kind of gotta hmm
this thing right a little bit. You kind of gotta
say the things that make you go home, and that
is the NBA and what we're finding out about now
when it comes to the gambling issue with Malik Beasley.
So you recall we've had conversation about Malik Beasley being
investigated when it came to some gambling. There was some
(02:32):
abnormal bets on Malik Beasley. And then you know what
the internet does. The Internet starts interneting and showing game footage,
just some odd things. Some of the running back some
of them were agregious. I'm not gonna lie. So you
start to see those where he didn't shoot here, or
he didn't get back on defense there, and so the
internet started the worst.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
One where there's like five seconds left in the game
and he gets the inbound sprints down the court and
lays it in and it cuts a endpoint deficit to
eight and the spread was nine, and you're.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Like oh, Rob Ge okay, say it with me. Things
that make you go No, that's right, Mary Man. Now
here's worth interesting for me. So let me just get
the details real quick. Leak Beasley, he's no longer a
target of the federal gambling investigation that's conducted by the
Eastern District of New York. His attorneys told ESPN that today,
(03:25):
so months after the investigation, Malik, he's uncharged and is
not the target of this investigation. So in allegation with
no charge in diaping or conviction should never have the
catastrophic consequence that it has from a leak. It's an
interesting point because you and I were talking earlier how
this all worked out. Him supposed to be a free
agent coming off for a really really good year for
the Pistons might have cost him forty two million dollars,
(03:48):
which forty two million dollars if I didn't do something,
it is crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
We gotta fight.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
We got subscratched, so somebody got to see me out
in the back alley or something. But with that being said,
Rob Gi, it leads to a larger conversation for me
at least, and that is something that I've been looking
at and considering and we've talked about this gambling because
for a multitude of reasons lately when it comes to
the NBA and something don't smell right or sit right
with me with this when you break it down, I
(04:15):
think the NBA, NFL we're seeing it a lot, rob G.
How many MLB conversations have we had with gambling where
pitchers have thrown pitches and they've had some concerns about
those pitches, right, And a lot of this comes with
prop bets and concerns about, well, this pitch is gonna
be over ninety miles or it's gonna be a or
(04:35):
a ball or a strike. In the NBA, well this
guy's gonna you know, shoot or five threes, and there's
concerns about that. Isn't it funny or ironic that on
the exact same day that the NBA cleared Terry Rozier
of gambling violations, you know what they announced on that
same day, Robb G, what's that that Malague Beasley was
under a federal investigation for the same thing. That ain't
(04:57):
no coincidence. That is called damage control, right, Because if
the Terry Rozier is going on and some new facts
about that come out and me, you and Rob Parker
talking about it for another week, two weeks, three weeks,
a month, and you got Malik Beazy going on that
we talked about for another two three months and something
going on, and you got still the Jonte Porter hanging
out over there. Well, that's a lot going on for
(05:20):
one league that is in bed with the fan duels,
the DraftKings and all these sports book that you are
the ones that you can name as well. So the
NBA has been going through this. If you recall the
Tim donahe issue back in two thousand and seven where
he fixed games for the mob then and that scandal
nearly destroyed the league's credibility with a lot of people
(05:41):
because people were saying, well, what's going on? People were saying,
I knew something was fishing in two thousand and two
Game six NBA Western Conference Finals Lakers Kings, So all
these things, does that.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
One totally get him a game? Oh yeah, I don't
caring what Tim Donnie did. We won that game, fair
and square. Okay, that's what we're saying, Rob Da is
what we're saying. Okay, Well, I got a bridge I
want to sell you in Brooklyn too.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But here's the thing. The league got past that. The
league moved on, and I think Robb Gi they don't
want anything else to make us look back in the
rear view mirror, to hop in the dolory and go
back in time and start looking at that donnahye scandal
and start to look at these things and go, something
don't seem right. And now is their concern? When you
got Beasley in the crosshairs of all this, when you
have Terry Rose here in the federal investigation going on,
(06:33):
when we had Johntay Porter last season as well, these
things are happening more and more frequently. And when you
have even Michael Porter junior, John Jay's older brother talking
about how easy it is on the podcast saying, man,
you got guys coming from nothing. Oh yeah, unless say
they're a lower you know, a smaller player not making
a lot of money to a way player like his
(06:53):
brother was, and the homies back home, I ain't got nothing,
and you can say, man, look they got it under that.
I'm gonna play. I'm gonna get five rebounds, I'm gonna
get three or four and my handstring hurts the rest
of this game. Wink wink, you might want to put
a diw on your boy. My back's tighten up. You
might want to put five hundred on your boy. It's
(07:14):
so easy now with these prop bets and the prompt
bets lead for a major concern for the NBA, the NFL,
and MLB, and and we keep having all these conversation investigations,
and I wonder when it's gonna come to a head
where the NBA and all these other leaders are gonna
have to go back to DraftKings FanDuel and be like, Uh,
we're gonna have to figure something out. Either keep doing
(07:36):
what you're doing with or not, but we gotta change
the prop bets or something, or they're just gonna try
to finesse this enough and play magician enough. Rob Ji
to say, look over here, wait, look over here, Terry
just cancer. Okay, well look over here. Belak Be's is
going ha ha, no, no, no, what investigation. I don't
remember what you're talking about, and hope that we forget.
But this game keep happening two three times in the
season because it's gonna make people go, well, what the
(07:58):
heck is really going on? David Sturt, Adam Silver.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Yeah, you know what's funny is, through all of this situation,
you know Terry Rozier, you know Malik Beasley now and
the John Say Porter situation is the only definitive comment
that we've gotten from the NBA and the Players Association
for that matter, is we would like to adjust the
prop bets with our partners so that if you're on
a ten day contract, you're not eligible for a prop bet.
(08:22):
That's the only thing that they've said that, like, Hey,
we are gonna get rid of this, We're gonna get
rid of that, We're gonna institute some kind of governing body. No, no, no,
nothing like that. It's just the ten day guys. That's
what we gotta worry about. And that's what and that's
what's funny about this whole situation is you mentioned the
Michael Porter junior comments on that podcast. It's not quite
(08:44):
as bad as that infamous R. Kelly interview with Touring
Right Tory say you say his name where they ask
him like, are you attracted to teenage girls? And the
obvious answer for our Kelly in that situation was no, absolutely,
not I am not absolutely And instead he says, but
when we say teenage, how old are we talking how
(09:05):
do we like, what are you doing?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
And so for Mike is amazing, like what Blake's three times?
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Like wait what, Like I know, I know R Kelly's
publicist quit right there, Like you know, I'm done. There's
there's nothing for me to do with this. It's a wrap.
And so for Michael Porter exactly, so for Michael Porter
Junior to go on the podcast and and and if
they're going to talk about Johnson the whole situation, all
he had to say is that was a terrible decision
by him. He's learned his lesson. I hope every NBA
(09:35):
player from now on will understand what kind of mistake
it was. And he threw away his career over you know,
five thousand, eight thousand dollars whatever it was.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Instead, he goes, well, you know, it's real easy.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
If we wanted to manipulate the prop bets and if
I got a buddy and I want to make a
couple of racks on it, it's not hard for me
to make it happen. And it's like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
That's not the alley we want you to talk about that.
People go that ain't a bad idea, you know, the
way you made it sound. It does seem more I
think about it.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
But like, but this is and again we're not saying
that the NBA is being nefarious, that this is all
some big cover up, But I'm not saying it's not
a cover up, because this is something that's been going
on now my entire life. Basically, you mentioned you got
the gambling. Now before that, it was the Tim Donnegie situation.
(10:28):
Even somewhere in the middle between the Donnegie and the gambling,
there's an official in the NBA, Scott Foster. You know
what his nickname is.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
The Extender.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
You don't get a nickname like the Extender unless you
got a reputation for finding a way to turn a
four game series into a five game series.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I'm just saying, don't let Chris Paul here.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
And if we want to go back even further, if
you want to go back to the eighties and the
NBA Draft lottery, I don't know about you, but I've
been told a legend leave that the reasoning Patrick Ewing
ended up with the New York Knicks because the envelope
was frozen.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Hey listen, it's hot in the summer, and if I
fill a cold envelope I'm gonna know which one is which.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
It's just the NBA has got this weird history where
they I don't know if it's on purpose. I'm not
gonna say it's on purpose because it's all alleged, but
they traffic in some very suspicious activity.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Well, let's stay in traffic. Let's be all up in
the hole lane. Okay, Lebron James from where Northeast Ohio.
Who happens to get the number one pick? Cleveland? Lebron
goes there, right, Lebron leaves Cleveland. Man, I'm sorry, Cleveland.
(11:49):
I can't believe y'all lost the biggest player in the
league as a shime and all that good stuff for
at least that's a shame. It'd be crazy if we
just happen to give y'all a number one pick. I'm
just saying. I'm just saying, man, I've been here before,
New Orleans.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
I know that Anthony Davis just forced a way out
of town. That's a terrible thing.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
It's it's just happened to be this.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
But you know what, it worked out that you guys
just want the draft lottery to the greatest draft prospect
of the last ten years.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
I Am Williamson just coincid dink quinky dinky man Dallas,
you lost Luca, y'all traded him? Oh man, that's wild.
Well there's another big time college star that everybody loves.
Just be crazy if he just became available. And I
alley you if you just number one pick when you
had a what two chance of getting it. I'm just
(12:37):
saying with my tinfoil illumitum hat on that. Uh, the
NBA does have some suspicious things that coincidentally tend to
happen quite often.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Roger, Yeah, No, why do you think it is the
NBA that this happens to.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
And not you know, actually I actually actually have answer.
I think more than anything, I think you'll feel me
on this. One player can change the n BE, your team,
your organization much easier. Yes, aside from five six quarterbacks
in the NFL, one player doesn't make that much of
a difference. For instance, Let's say, uh, if I took
(13:20):
away Justin Jefferson, the Vikings will be sick. But if
I gave you another, you know, if you're another receiver
step up, you can still compete and have a chance
to win. Now, if I take away Patrick Mahomes, Josh
Allen or Lamar Jackson, we got to know a whole
another conversation. The Cowboys can lose Micah and if they
(13:41):
go on a row, you never know mess around to
be you know, eleven and six sneak in the postseason,
but they could be okay. But if I give you
twenty one year old Lebron, James Derrick, Rose, Kobe Bryant, Shaq,
Steph Curry, you know these young guys that you can
have potentially for seven, eight to twelve years, that can
(14:01):
change the trajectory or franchise forever. Tim Duncan forever, Patrick Ewing.
The Knicks didn't win, but they were always competitive for
ten to fifteen years. And Orlando, you get shat, what
do you do? You go straight to the finals. A
couple of seasons later, Cleve against Lebron. What do they
do go to the finals way before they were supposed
to know? Seven? You know, Steph Curry changed the entire
(14:22):
direction of the franchise. So my point is the NBA,
little things like that can change your franchise for quite
a bit of time versus the NFL, where it's much harder.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Well speaking and changing the direction of a franchise. There's
a franchise in the NFL that would wish that their
star pass rusher would change the speed and is a dometer.
That was a terrible segment, but we'll get into that next.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
It wasn't bad at all. I love it. It's de robz

Right now, Rob G and I getting ready to talk
about Miles Garrett, who's been having a little bit of
an issue, actually a lot of bit of issue at
this point with the roads. Here's Miles Garrett when he
(17:00):
was impressed about it.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
What is it like to be in that car and
seeing that it's predominant freak up to more.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Than one hundred.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
I do honestly rather talk about football in this team
than anything I'm doing off field, other than the.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Back to school no event that I did the other day.
But I mean, people want to know.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
I want to know about that.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
People want to know a lot of things. Due daggd,
we do want to know. That was a final question,
What does it feel like? That was such a set
up question, right because if you just ask it, maybe
he knows where it's going early He's like, I ain't
trying to hear that. But when you try to find
a way to do like, oh g golly shucks, you know,
I just wish I could ride around like that.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Never gone that fast before, I've never go I haven't had.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
One of some of the cars that you've been able
to drive. You think you might bait him in actually
answer that, and that is absolutely not the case. So, uh,
for context, what the what the reporter was asking there?
Miles Garrett has now been ticketed eight times, Rob Geez
eight times for speeding. And what makes it even more
(18:08):
interesting to me is that somebody will say, all right, well,
that's not that big of a deal, right, I mean,
we all speed. I'll be the first one to say
that I've got speeding tickets, right. But when you start
to add up to eight and not eight in his
life since he was sixteen, you're talking eight since he's
been a Brown, and that's an absurd amount of number.
But also when it starts to affect Rob g to me,
(18:30):
your actual on field play, that's when I really have
an issue because this isn't something where it's all leave
him alone, that's his personal life, blah blah blah. We
can move on. No, he actually had to miss time
on the field because he got into a wreck a
few years back. He got into a car crash that
messed him up, beat him up pretty bad, and he
had to miss a game. So now you're talking about
(18:52):
an habitual issue that is a problem that is affecting
the gameplay. That is affecting me if I'm the Browns
and ownership, and more importantly, just as someone who would
care about your life, if I'm a friend or if
I'm you know, a leader on the team, it's affecting
your health. It could be it could have been dangerous.
You could have not gotten back up from that accident.
Someone could have been killed. How many conversations have me,
(19:13):
you and Rob Parker have had over the last couple
of months about this? Yep, Rashie Rice. Yeah, to be
an example, Uh huh. So this is concerning from the
best player on our team, supposed to be a leader
on our team, and now I got to look at
the team as a whole because you're doing and got
a couple already. He ain't even been there that long.
(19:33):
So what the heck is going on in Cleveland? You
know what? I was just in Cleveland last week or
a week and a half ago, whatever it was, and
I can tell you what. The city is clean, the
downtown is bigger than you think, but ain't nobody there.
And maybe that's the problem. They got these free roads
and people think they are hanging out with fast and
Furious and they't doing it. For the family. What is
going on with Miles Garrett, Rob's family?
Speaker 3 (19:55):
I got family, now you with the nail run of
the mind. First off, of course, it's a safety issue, right,
Like it's one thing like you know around here you
get cot speeding on what eighty five eighty seven. You
don't really have that much open road in LA to
really open it up, right, This dude's hitting one hundred
on the regular, to a point where they got to
ask him, Michael, what does it feel like to go
one hundred miles an hour? Because you do it basically
every week and a half, it feels like you know
(20:16):
all about it, right, So like that's number one. But
number two I think this is a bigger conversation is
this is indicative as to why the Cleveland Brown is
such a dumpster fire and have been. Because you could
point to the quarterback situation, and that's true, right, But
Miles Garrett, in addition to being the best player that
they've had there, you know, basically in my lifetime, he
(20:37):
is supposed to be the leader of the team. And
when the leader of the team is number one, this
reckless off the field and doing something like this repeatedly
over and over.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
It.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
It sets a point to where the leadership is not there.
And this is something that was actually talked about by
the athletics Jason Lloyd back in March when he signed
that big contract. He said in his article quote, It's
well known within the Browns organization, Miles Garrett frequently late
to the facility. He skipped mandatory team activities on multiple occasions,
and normally veterans will police this kind of thing. The
(21:08):
problem is he's the veteran, right, there's no one there
to police him, and in a situation the police exactly
and the situation like this. I'm not saying that this
is the reason it happened, but when you see your
best player, your leader, getting popped for speeding on an
annual basis, I'm not shocked in that Shador Sanders, a young,
impressionable rookie, would get caught doing something similar like that.
(21:32):
That you're setting the tone for the team and the
franchise when your best player keeps doing stuff like this.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You want to know. I know he's been questions about leadership,
question about being lai, question about the tickets and all that.
You want to know how I know how you know?
Because if we were to play that back, and the
first thing he says is, you know, I just want
to talk about my charitable acts. When you start going
to the charrible axe in your charitable foundations, did I
(21:57):
know something up? You know, I just want to talk
about what I mean to the community. Yeah, something up?
You know, so automatically know that. Uh, but yeah, you
bring up. I mean, listen, you're right about he's supposed
to be the face of the franchise because at that time,
up until now and even now, we still don't know
who the face is. As far as a quarterback. You
gotta have him participating in being exactly where he needs
(22:18):
to be. So hopefully, hopefully man on a serious now
and we're joking right now, but on a serious hell tip,
hopefully he'll learn from his lesson Robberie, because that could
have been really bad for him. You know what I mean,
that he could have not gotten up.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
Yeah, he already's already flipped the car.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Once exactly, and he's too big to be flipping cars
around these streets. Facts, way way too big. All right,
on the way we have we're gonna have a conversation
on the other side of the trending with Joel Corey,
former NFL agency BS sports NFL analysts. You're looking forward
to that right now, man, boss. Uh, we we'll already ask.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
You so an.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Uh yes, Vaniana, yes, good job. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 6 (23:09):
Well, we've got a lot of NFL going on right now.
It's Week three of the NFL preseason. Jake Elliott has
hit two field goals for the Eagles, a fifty one
yard field goal and a fifty three yard field goal,
and they're on top of the Jets six zero store
early in the second quarter. Joe Milton with the rushing
touchdown puts Cowboys on the scoreboard against the Falcons seven
zero halfway through the first Late in the first quarter
(23:31):
of Vikings up on the Titans three zero, and the
Bears and the Chiefs just got going in their preseason game.
Earlier today, the Commanders traded running back Brian Robinson Junior
to the San Francisco forty nine ers for a six
round pick in twenty twenty six, and multiple reports that
the Vikings and the Panthers have had trade talks involving
Carolina wide receiver Adam Thielen. In baseball, the Giants are
(23:51):
on top of the Brewers two zero, top of the
second inning. Guardians are edging the Rangers one zero bottom
of the second. Also, Ranger center fielder Evan Carter you
can miss the rest of the regular season with.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
The fractured right wrist.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
The Rays are up on the Cardinals right now, five
to one, bottom of the third, all met so far
against the Braves seven to one. Top of the fourth inning.
Blue Jay is up on the Marlins three to one,
top of the sixth. The Royals have a three to
one lead over the Tigers after five innings. The Orioles
have cut their deficit to one against the Astros. Houston
up four to three, top of the fifth. Red Sox
and Yankees are scoreless, but the fans still got a show.
(24:26):
A squirrel went crazy in the fourth inning at Yankee Stadium,
and obviously it's kind of hard to catch a scroll.
It happened for I saw a whole minute of the
scirrel running around, so I don't know how long it
took for them to actually get the squirrel. So even
though it's a scoreless game, at least the fans got
a little action of some sort.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
The Nationals have tied the game against the Phillies.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
It's three to three.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Bottom of the sixth inning. Back to you guys, thank
you get as much to boosta.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
All right, it's the odd couple. We got Rob g
for Rob Parker kelvin Washington on a funky flashback Friday.
We're joined out by Joel Corey, former NFL Agen CBS
Sports NFL analyst Corey Joel on X and by the way,
if you got AK and E step back. Joy's not cooperating.
Some days your body's just like nope. Thankfully on those
days there's a lead. With just one pill. Lee provides
(25:13):
up to twelve hours of paying relief so you can
keep moving. Use as directed, Joel. What's going on? How
you doing doing great?
Speaker 5 (25:19):
How you guys doing?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
We're doing great, man, thank you for asking. We're doing
better than a Cowboys fan on this here Friday. What
is going on? We got Jerry beefing with agents. We
got Jerry ignoring agents and trying to do back alley
or back of the club deals in Vegas, signing Mike
into some deal on a napkin. What's up, Joel? How
(25:40):
this can't happen right?
Speaker 5 (25:43):
Well, this isn't anything news for Jerry. He's been trying
to circumvent agents for over thirty years when I first
got started. He did that with the client that my
bosses are representing, Jimmy Smith, and that draft ride receivers
(26:07):
weren't teams of waiting to take wide receivers. And what
Jerry did was Jimmy on the phone while they're on
the clock and tell them we're going to take you,
but you have to agree to this particular below market contract.
Jimmy's a little anxious because the draft isn't going the
way we thought. We thought he might be a lad
(26:27):
first round pick instead a second round pick. He agrees
to it. When he cuts to my bosses, they're pretty
upset about it, called Jerry and tell them we don't
have an agreement. You're negotiating of us and a market
contract got done shortly thereafter. So this isn't new for Jerry.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Well, Joe, isn't there protocol I have to imagine this
protocols in place to prevent this kind of thing, Because
if that was the case, then why wouldn't every agent
just contact his player in the locker room, you know,
up in my suite whatever to get a deal done
and cut the agent out. Isn't there something that would
safeguard this.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
Yeah, well it's not. The NFLPA didn't force any type
of safeguards. But you know Jerry is going to do
something like this, so you really make your players aware
that he is going to approach you. And what Micah
should have done is at best, say I think I'm
(27:29):
the best defensive player in the NFL and I should
be paid accordingly, and you work everything else out with
my agent. Don't engage in any back and forth. So
that's where I put a little bit of the blame
on Micah as Bryant had an interesting way of dealing
with that several years ago, from what he said on
(27:51):
a podcast last year that he asked Jerry if Jerry
could cover him on the football field, and he's like, no,
I get the store. Wait and he posed the question
to Jared, and why do you think I would be
able to negotiate with you? And that ended it and
get it to deal with DES's representatives.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I want to ask you this one, Joe switching gears
a little bit here, something we talked about in our
show a handful of weeks ago. But I feel like
I kind of just rolled on and that is the
arbitration rule and I found the NFL was urging team
owners to restrict fully guaranteed contract for quarterbacks after the
Deshaun Watson deal, and we know that it got found
to come out. They had an arbitration about it and
(28:34):
they found inclusion. But you had the NFLPA not even
telling the players for six months until they were kind
of forced to tell them, like, oh, yeah, my bad,
I was meant to tell you that. How big of
a deal is that? And and how big is it
a deal that you have the nfl PA not even
telling the players and kind of having to find this
out on their own and and and when they could
be maybe using that in the favor of the players.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
Oh, it's a huge deal. It was concealed. That's one
of the big reasons why Lloyd Howe is no longer
the executive director. Yeah, I'm sure the agents of quarterbacks
and other high profile players would have loved to have
known that information right after the decision was rendered so
(29:19):
they could try to use it to their advantage and negotiations.
Speaker 6 (29:24):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
I don't know why the NFLPA wouldn't try to weaponize
that against the NFL. But then again, Lloyd how is
the guy that when at first asked about an eighteenth game,
essentially said who loves no football? Who doesn't love more football?
I sure do? When your proper response should be, will
(29:44):
have an eighteenth game over my dead BikeE right right?
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Joe Corey, Formutive AGENCYBS Sports, you're on the odd couple. Well,
speaking of that Dishaun Watson contract, David Willigette represented Deshaun Watson,
also raised Michael Parsons looking at his history, like five
of his biggest clients have all at one point demanded
a trade in order to get the money that they're after,
(30:11):
which to me feels like a new kind of thing
in the NFL. We see this a lot in the NBA,
but this feels like a new development in the NFL.
Could you imagine a situation where this kind of does
become par for the course for the best players, where like, Hey,
if I'm not going to get the money that I'm
asking for, I'm going to demand trade. I'm gonna scrub
all my socials and eventually you're going to give it
to me. Because that's what great players, that's what they get.
Speaker 5 (30:34):
Player empowerment in the NBA is much different than the NFL.
What you see in a contract dispute. Part of the
agent calculus or playbook, it is to demand a trade.
Trey Henderson demanded one early in the offseason, Karen McLaurin
demanded one. Michael Parsons day Quinn said at the time,
(30:59):
with McCall run trading me request, that's just part of
the business. Sir Watson was a little bit different. He
was a little upset about how the head coaching process
took place in how his suggestions were ignored. He was
under contract for four years at the time, and they
(31:20):
mutually agreed that he wouldn't play that year. The Texans
didn't want him around after all the sexual assought allegations
came out. He didn't want to play for them either,
so he was basically on the fifty three man roster
getting paid. They wasted roster spot in him. So that
was a little bit different than the other ones.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
I want to ask you this. You mentioned it earlier
the eighteen games. You kind of were joking, hey, over
my dead body. But is that because it already is
in the air and the NFL is the bohemians and
the king of sports in North America, specifically the States,
is it almost inevitability? Me once it's out there, once
(32:01):
we've talked about it, shows like this converse about it,
it's gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
Yeah, it's going to happen. I'm not sure if it
will be before the end of this collective our agreement,
which runs through the twenty thirty season. The NFL has
the right to opt out of the media rights deals
I think after twenty twenty nine, so they would want
to have the eighteenth game in place by then, but
(32:28):
you're gonna need to negotiate with the players union if
they ever get their act together, to do it sooner
rather than later. One of the things that didn't help
is some of the players came out and said, as
long as the extra game check and a bye week,
I'm okay, No, the eighteenth game should be much more
valuable to the owners than that. Those should be given
(32:52):
that you're gonna get an extra game check and the
bye week, but there should be substantial concessions for that.
I'm not optimistic that the union will get substantial concessions
because anytime there is a workstop it it doesn't matter
what sport. The bees meeting billionaires will outlast him the millionaires.
(33:15):
At least when the NBA has had workstoppages, the players
have more resolved, and we'll take it into the season.
The last time, in twenty eleven, the NFL players caved
before any preseason games were played.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
Well, well, you're gonna have to watch and wait and
see and once, like I said, Joel, once this is
out there, I feel like it's an inevitability. Uh, it's
gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
It's gonna happen, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Yep. And by the way, Joe and Roger they care
about so much about safety, let's just keep adding games,
all right, Joe, thank you so much. Appreciate you man,

Speaker 1 (33:50):
No dal have a great weekend, all right, rober g
We got to have an improv to shop Talk.
Speaker 3 (33:54):

and we had to scrap the whole run down and
put in a shop Talk.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
We had to add it to the show for sure.

time out for an impromptu shop talk.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
That's right, it is shop talk. You're on the Odd
Couple the same when we talk about something happen outside
of the world of sports, and this week's topic comes
to us courtesy of.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Our very own Rob Parker, because as you know.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
He's been traveling the Parker Thank you traveling the globe
about a week now. We're doing it all next week two.
And as a result, he's been a lot of airports
so earlier on Friday, he was taking a shuttle from
his hotel to the airport to go to his next stop,
and according to Rob here's what he tweeted out.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
I've seen it all.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
The shuttle driver from my hotel just refused my tip
because it wasn't enough. Shaking my head hashtag the shame
of it all. People have asked him how much he gave.
He's leaving that up to your imagination, which I feel
makes us even better.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Oh yeah, but dub your thoughts. First thing I said
on his Instagram rob Gie, I said, well, did the
tip jingle because it sounded like he might've gave him
seventy five cent whatever was in his pocket. He said no,
He said, nobody carries change anymore. But it does make
you wonder with Rob. Rob is the most frugal, cheapest
(36:10):
person and also the biggest spender. I know, it's a
weird complexity. If you ask me the thing, I'll tell
you if he's gonna spend it or not, and it'll
be weird. He'll literally walk out of a store because
the soda went up forty cents from two days ago.
But he'll walk out with a Gucci hat, Gucci hoodie,
and his very expensive car and it won't make any sense.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
The duality of man, the.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Duality of Rob Parker. It kind of reminds you of
that Chris Rock character. And I'm gonna get you, sucker,
how much for one rid? And he complains, how much
a lot? How about you just let me half a rid?
And ultimately at the end he pulls out a lot
of money. You're like, wait a minute, you've been complaining
about the price of ribs. He just pulled out about
a thousand dollars. So that's Rob Parker. I have a
feeling it was probably insultingly low, that it wasn't worth
(37:00):
me say I was carrying all your stuff, took your
luggage out, blah blah whatever. It's just what even just
you you you keep it bro.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
So if you had to guess how much, was it.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Two dollars and the signed a little greater or less
than two or less? Like I think it was two
dollars or less, right, Manzi.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
Even if it was that you don't turn down bills.
I never turn it down to like, even if it
was one dollar.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
That's why there's there's something we don't know here.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
I love Rob, but there's something we don't know.
Speaker 6 (37:28):
Even if it was one dollar, the person takes it
and maybe rolls their eyes, but if it's bills.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
You just take it.
Speaker 7 (37:34):
Well, go ahead, Rob gie, well they under two dollars.
Under two dollars, go ahead, go ahead, doub no, go ahead, Okay.
So my thing is, I, yes, I agree with you guys.
I believe it was two dollars. I'm gonna say it
was a dollar. That's what I think it was.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
But here's where I think this is why I wish
Rob would answer a question. But he's not going to
think he's doing it on purpose. What I really believe
happened is he didn't give it him a dollar or
two singles, right. What I think most likely happened. Rob
gave him a five or a ten and said, hey,
can I get change back? And that's what led to
(38:11):
him saying, you know what, might as well keep it.
I don't need that.
Speaker 1 (38:13):
TI absolutely he gave He gave him a ten and
asked for nine backs, and the person said, I ain't.
Nobody got time for that it's not even worth me
digging through my purse, my this, my that, my wallet,
trying to find a change, you know, kicking up dust
trying to find it. Just here you go, man, I
took you to where you needed to go. Terminal five?
(38:34):
Is that way? Here's bad, here's your luggage. Have a
great day. You tell me you can't break a ten
for me.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
On pat your sixpender on the show? What do you
think Rob? Tip number one and numbers? Do you have
an issue with the guy giving it back? Well, here's
the thing. I ain't passing up no money.
Speaker 8 (38:50):
If I'm getting tip, it doesn't matter if it's a dollar,
fifty cents or ten or ten dollars, I'll be like
money yay.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Number two? What did I think Rob gave I?
Speaker 8 (38:59):
Like here idea of the concept of oh he gave
him a ten just for you know, a dollar back
or whatever. Like I I'll say a dollar fifty. He's
gonna do the Hank Hill thing, like so you can
work fift a dollar fifty dollar fifty so you could
work towards better next time.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
That's funny.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
Yeah, this is Do you think he also got his
bag of clothes in there? Like hey, no, no, no, no,
leave that on the shuttle because I want you to
keep that.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
That might actually be with the person was completely over.
I don't want any tips from you. Matter of fact,
what if that is the tip? So minutes money? What
if that is the tip Roger with six foot four
clothes And it was like hey, and all that said
was odd. Couple this odd. Couple that with Chris Bruceard
and he was like, you can have these marry that
you just bought new furniture.
Speaker 3 (39:43):
What happened you know you got money from out of
your pockets? You just told me about it.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Yeah, oh my gosh, it was. It hurt.
Speaker 7 (39:51):
It hurt, But of anything, I think Rob probably gave
like a dollar two dollars And.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
Would you give it back if someone gave you a dollar.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
Or two dollars? No, no, you wouldn't give it back.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
It's this change thing you said.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
You just wouldn't give back bills.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
You would be annoyed by it, but you wouldn't give
it back.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
Allow it. But Manti recognized him and they were like,
this dude has big money. He's got a national radio show,
he does this, he does that, and this man just
gave me a dollar or two. Man, I'm good, bro,
keep it. You think him on World Stars so much?
Speaker 3 (40:22):
World Star?
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Does that exist? Yes? They're going on Twitter? Oh gosh, no,
I does that exists.
Speaker 6 (40:30):
I think you guys are right that she probably asked
for change, and that's when the person was like, never mind,
you keep it.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Just go ahead, bro, it ain't even working more than
I do. Yeah, I mean, that's that's absolutely what happened.
But maybe we'll get the truth out of him when
he comes back, or maybe somebody oppress him enough on
social media and he'll he'll give it to us. I
think he was mad when I said did a jingle
though the actual tip he would give him sixty five
cents or something like that. I think he was mad.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
You're on the outre leefrom right now?
Speaker 1 (40:55):
Yeah? Oh yeah, that don't bring that up. You might
not be on the show anymore.
