Speaker 1 (03:16):
Dollar twelve for a salad mixed?
Speaker 8 (03:18):
Rob?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
That's impressive. That's impressive.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Am I right?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
You can see the brown in the lettuce? No, you
cannot see brown? Would you stop?
Speaker 5 (03:27):
Shade?
Speaker 1 (03:27):
What where's the brown?
Speaker 5 (03:29):
A little bit?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
That's what?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Hey, Shae, that's my hand holding a package. That's the
only brown.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Let me see.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Let me see what you can't see it on your phone.
It's on your phone.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
I can see. Oh shoot, I see me.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Would you stop?
Speaker 9 (03:46):
Let's see Rob, I'll say this. This is actually mineral
base lettuce too. It's butterleaf and red leaf.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Good. Jot's on iceberg. That's right.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
You know he's gonna cherry pick and only get the iceberg.
We know that for sure.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
And here's the other thing too, the expiration on the lettuce.
July twentieth, No, and that's a couple of days.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
Where do you see that? July twentieth it's at the top.
You can't see it, but it's July twenty.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Convenient. We can't see it. No, but it is. I
would tell me about the hamp the.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Look under the reduced I saw seven seventeen, and I
thought that woul look under.
Speaker 10 (04:19):
The reduced see it because I feel like he would
have taken a picture of that, just to prove the point. Yeah,
we go back there, Well, we'll be I'll be FaceTime. No, no, no,
it was the twenty. But my point. Nothing wrong with this, right.
The lettuce is good?
Speaker 6 (04:31):
But okay, but Rob, this is the issue. We're not
necessarily mad at the lettuce blend. Okay, you were eating
meats in mayonnaise and cheat the chicken salad that was
reduced and flown across the country, and hams that were green.
And I come back in the studio, what do you say, Oh,
my stomach hurts.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Did you did you not? I said my stomach. I
didn't say it heard. I just said my stomach.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I was just mister semantics, all right.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
No, Hey, it's a funky flashback Friday. Let's welcome in
the odd couple crew who I never get Mark. I'm
just saying, Alex is our engineer, Shay is our producer
for rob Gez.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Working on it. Work something about the valley. You're from
the valley, Let's find it something for the valley.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Steve the Sagas.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
He'll keep us updated and of course Elijah that is
our social media guru and uh he will keep us
going live all over social media.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Do Doug live. Thank you Bill. Uh. We already know
the t J.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Watt contract right, which was a big one for the Steelers,
and then Kelvin today just thoughts about Micah Parsons and
the Cowboys, and we know what Jerry Jones.
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Can you just so the conversation is a Yard Barker story,
which is really.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Which makes sense because it makes the boy.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Say they didn't break anything in the sense that everybody's
had to hear. We go again, so the thought process
is here we go with TJ. Watt getting that, and
you and I have agreed we're gonna call it a
eight million dollar deal, the one hundred and eight, not
the what they said. The guaranteed portion of it four years,
one hundred and eight forty one mil a year for TJ. Watt,
(06:21):
who obviously we know is amazing, but he is also older,
a half full of years older than Michael Parsons. So
your logic goes to, well, Michael Parson's been just about
as good, just about his prolific a lot younger, and
he's playing in Dallas, so that payday gots to be crazy.
And they're in lies of conversation, Rob, that the Cowboys
(06:41):
done did it again?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
The cowboys? This is the issue.
Speaker 6 (06:46):
The definition Rob of insanity is what doing the same
thing over and over and expecting a different outcome. And
really that's exactly what the Cowboys keep doing. They keep
doing the same thing, playing around and free agency. You
ever had a leak something going on in your house, man,
little we gotta check on this leak. We gotta look
at this leak. And they say it's gonna be about
(07:07):
three hundred dollars. You're like, let me just we'll wait.
We'll wait, all right, You might not want to wait.
Cir could get worse, and you get worse, and they
got to come back, and that three hundred dollars goes
to three thousand dollars. That's what the Dallas Cowboys keep doing.
You know, you've identified your stars, Dak Prescott, CD Lamb
and Michael Parsons pay the men their money, and what
(07:27):
they keep doing is waiting around, trying to find a
better deal, trying to finago. Maybe they'll get a hometown discount,
and they end up getting screwed over to the tune
of sixty million. They gotta pick Dak Prescott, they had
to pay more money for CI have to do that
over again. They wouldn't do that one hundred percent. And
it's not that he's a horrible quarterback. It's just he's
not worth sixty. But when you keep waiting and you
(07:48):
have no more leverage, or you see the other guy
get the bag, and that's what happened with Cede Lamb.
You see other receivers get their money. Then you're forced
to pay CD Lamb a bunch of money.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
You want to set the market, not be not you
know what I mean exactly?
Speaker 5 (08:01):
You want to be early. All right, here's I'm making
it up.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Here's thirty two mil you and then now somebody else
has to go higher than you. You want to set it,
But no, they keep waiting, And I just don't understand
for them to be such a big organization understanding money,
trying to do something different, because again, definition is saying
they're doing the same thing over and you keep doing this,
you keep stubbing your toe, wasting money when you know
you've identified the guys you have to keep because Jerry
(08:25):
Jones ultimately pays these guys.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
So I genuinely don't understand it. I don't get it.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
But it also is the reason why they've been in
perpetually a good team at best, a mid team more
than likely over the last thirty years because of moves
like this. And the common denominator is what rob Jerry Jones,
What you're gonna do? Get rid of the owner?
Speaker 5 (08:45):
He owned it.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, that's why this is not a shocker at all.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
This is Jerry and he has there's a reason that
thirty two years have gone by they haven't even been
to the forget about going to the super Bowl, but
even playing in a conference championship. I mean that is
insane when you really think about the way the NFL
set up, and all he ever does is wait, wait, wait,
(09:12):
and it costs him and I just cannot understand it
or figure it out. But again, it's Jerry, and he's
done this over and over and over again. And you know,
if you're not gonna do it, and I mean.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Pay them, then you should trade them.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
And there was a little talk at one point, right
the Cowboys had more holes in the golf course, so
maybe they were better off and thinking like we could
get a couple of pieces, you know what I mean,
and get this thing righted, so to give ourselves a chance.
Obviously you don't want to give up a player like
Michael Parsons, but you got to give to get sometimes.
And if you're not going to pay them, as soon
as you can pay somebody and you identify them as
(09:50):
somebody who would get that kind of a deal.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
You should just do it early.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Early is always better because even if it's a mistake,
it's lower than waiting.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
It's a lower price than waiting.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
And you've seen enough even though the defense has been awful,
starting with that playoff game last year against Green Bay,
right terrible, and they were terrible to start the to
start the season, the defense, But ultimately.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
You're crazy.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
I think.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
I just think my question is are they waiting? Are
they debating? Do they really want to sign Michael Parsons?
You know he's into the podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I still believe that the best move would be to
trade him. He seems to be into other stuff. The
defense hasn't been that great. You could get a haul
for him. There are plenty of teams that would take him.
If I'm the Cowboys, I think I might entertain that,
and I would, I would, I would move on.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
They're not going anywhere for him. He's the problem is
or he loves them. You and I have sat up
here and talked about how he cutting himself short. Remember,
oh Man, I told him agent on his podcast, I
don't even care if we gotta lose money.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Let's just get the deal done. I want to stay here.
Whoaao what you hired me for? If you're gonna do
all that?
Speaker 6 (11:08):
He's up off the podcast and let the agent agent.
And so he's already said that. I think he's in
love with him. They're in love with him. And here's
the crazy part. I mean, as much as he'd been
in the lexicon for US sports folks now talking about him,
dude is only twenty five years old, which is absolutely insane,
how young he is, how prolific he is. He's twenty
six years old now now he's twenty six. But even
(11:31):
last year Rob he was injured, nicked up banged up,
only plays thirteen games. Dude comes back and gives you
twelve sacks, that's how good he is.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
Two forced fumbles, thirty solo tackles. I mean then.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Numbers of the team. The defense wasn't good.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
True, but you can't let go of a twenty six
year old guy that good. Jerry Jones would never allow
himself to do that because if avi mark but you.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Didn't win, you didn't win with them. So what that means,
you're gonna.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
Go back to two seasons ago when they had a chance,
they had a great record at thirteen and three, they're
gonna look at that and say, when we're fully healthy.
Dak is healthy, Mic is healthy. Skill didn't doing anything
in the playoff. But my point is, don't talk to
me like talk to me like I'm Jerry.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I'm just saying like, unless you really could could store
up a couple other positions, like this team isn't close
and now you're you're what You're in a division with
the Eagles, right, yep uh? And the NFC is not
a pushover. There's a lot of good teams whatnot. Everybody
except the Lions might probably not get I know you
(12:33):
can't have a kid. But you get my point is
they have other issues. Would you agree with that? And
and I know they have some injuries, and you want
to believe in Dak and all that they got to
fix that defense if they really want to have a shot.
And I get it, and I get the Micah Parson.
I know how much talent he has.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It just seems like he's preoccupied with other stuff as well.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
But he still comes to play. And he's too young.
And you know, I'm annoyed with the podcast. You remember
getting them beef with players and Marcus Lawrence when he left,
are talking about other people's salary. He's done a bunch
of goofy stuff that I don't like with these podcasts.
And but now you're looking at a situation, just to
go back to the top of the conversation, where we
know TJ got forty one million annually. Now you're looking
(13:17):
at a situation where again, because they've waited so long,
they might cost themselves where he might make forty five annually.
And you can say, well it's one million, but four
million is huge because that four million can go to
another defensive defensive back. You could have signed that four
million can go get your running backs. You have to
revisit Ezekiel Elliott type situations where you got to spend
a block on the old Ezekiel Elliott. I mean they're
(13:39):
saying that he could get up to anywhere near two
hundred million because of the Micah I mean TJ.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
Watt deal and the Miles Garrett deal.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
You let those two guys get in front, and they're
older than him, so now his agent can really say,
look at those guys, He's about the same talent as
them and they're older than him.
Speaker 5 (13:58):
Pay the man some crazy money.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
So once again, Jarry Jones's fucking himself to me in
a deficit and put himself behind the eight ball where
he's lost money that he could have used to as
your point is, fill these holes and build up a
better team.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
All right, It is the couple.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
And guess what aching knees, stiff, back joints not cooperating.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Some days your body just feels like no way know how.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
And on those days, luckily there's a leave with just
one pill.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
A leave provides up to twelve hours of pain relief
so that you can keep moving. Use as directed we
want to hear from You eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox eight seven seven nine nine, six sixty three
sixty nine, And Michael Parters is the Cowboys?
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Where are you are they? Just?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Why are they procrastinating? Did they see something that maybe
made them pause and hesitate? You know, because otherwise after
his first couple of seasons, you would have thought that
he would have been locked up forever. And for whatever reason,
they're taking their time or or the cowboys uh with
sugar and just crazy and doing the same old stuff.
(15:05):
And this is Jerry and there's nothing new here in
cowboy Land? Where are you on this? Should they have
signed them already? And should they sign them? And should
he make more than TJ?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Watt? Where are You?
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox? It is The
Odd Couple on a funky Flashback Friday, Rob Parker, Kelvin

conversation about what we talked about yesterday once the news
about Kaitlyn Clark came out not gonna play an All
Star game in the three point contest, Well, some things
have changed.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
We'll explain what that is in a moment.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
Right now, we're talking about the Dallas Cowboys waiting to
that one along.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
What's new?
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Par for the course for them, and now they might
have to cash out a whole bunch of money. To
Michael Parsons, I say, it's just the definition of insanity
doing the same thing over expecting difference results. That would
be Jay Jones. Rob pretty much says the same thing.
This is part for the business for them. What's say
you eight seven seven ninety nine one Fox? So we
got all right, let's kick it off. I'm thinking Fred
and Maryland. You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Fred?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Fred? Is that you.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
All right?
Speaker 7 (17:40):
There?
Speaker 8 (17:41):
I'm sorry, I was yeah, I'm sorry, I was viewed
my bad Robins.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
All right, what's what's happening? How are you?
Speaker 8 (17:46):
I'm doing good? Hope y'all doing good too?
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Oh? Good brother.
Speaker 8 (17:50):
I think y'all are slightly incorrect on this. Okay, the
CD lamb, it came out that he wanted to wait
for Justine Jepson to get paid first before he signed
his dual. So that's one that Jerry didn't wait on
because it takes two to tango. So I'm pretty sure
if somebody came, he out of the contract and you're like, nah,
I'm go wait you with such a sign first, and so.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Dak Prestcott was what what it was.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
Back see now, now now we get to what you
write about that that thing when I can't believe they
did it again. He had a no trade calls in
his first contract, idioticy, then you sign him the first
day of the season and give him another no trade case, right,
that's me. I can't back that man for that. And
(18:34):
then the Mica one, that's another one. So you know
he got one. I guess he probably waited on CD two.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
But yeah, see now you say to CD, and I
hear your point, but I argue that that sounds cute.
Until I make you offer, you can't refuse, still knowing
Justin Jefferson is gonna get more money, so meaning if
I can just offer you this and like Rob, what
I were talking about, it's gonna be high, right. These
guys are special talents. But knowing we can set the
market so really is forcing them to go higher. So
(19:02):
to me, if you know he wants to stay here,
you know he wants to have that star and his helmet.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
To me, you can make it happen.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
They just chronically wait until it gets too awkward and
it becomes less advantageous for them.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
No doubt.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I think Jerry has mishandled it and not having a
real front office in GM, you know what I mean, Like.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Like you mean anybody but himself?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Yeah, I mean, it's just he says he's gonna do
it hisself and that's why they have him won.
Speaker 5 (19:26):
And who knows it better than me?
Speaker 6 (19:28):
Rob, That's what he told us, He said, who knows
this position better than me?
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Crazy?
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Daniel in Florida, you're in the odd couple of Fox
Sports Radio. What's up, Daniel, Aby Kelvin?
Speaker 11 (19:38):
Thanks for having me on. Guys, Yes, sir, I just
I agree with Kelvin. I think they definitely should have
paid him early. You know, such a dominant talent like
that coming out of college. Then he you know pretty
much does the same thing at the NFL level. I
feel like that was a no brainer, definitely. You know,
should have set the market waiting for for Miles Garrett
to get paid.
Speaker 12 (19:55):
TJ you get paid.
Speaker 11 (19:57):
I certainly think they should have paid him first.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
You have no problem with where the defense is headed
or was that just injury? Because the defense was awful
in the playoffs and to start the season if you remember,
they were giving up a forty piece Daniel almost every game.
Speaker 8 (20:12):
Absolutely right, I think, uh, you know, the agent kind.
Speaker 7 (20:15):
Of outside line back position.
Speaker 11 (20:17):
Of course, you know they're they're going to do some
kind of pass coverage. But but really, I mean we're
looking at Trayvon dig out with Tony that.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Yeah, they they had a lot of injuries, right They
their star players were out too, So I mean I'll
cut them a those their star.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Players weren't all out in that playoff game against Green Bay.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
Come on, you ain't never gonna let them.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I'm not going I'm not, Daniel. You're you're a fan, right,
you're a Cowboys fan. Do we lose them?
Speaker 7 (20:44):
Fan?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Okayybody, but I'm that playoff game, I mean, I get it.
People are hurt in the NFL. There's no way they
were supposed to get blown out. They got blowed out
at home in a playoff game, and it was no doubt.
Thank you, Daniel, thanks for the support. Michael in Portland.
You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. It's
not dame time anymore. What is it lame time? Important
(21:08):
show us up.
Speaker 12 (21:10):
Thanks for having me back.
Speaker 7 (21:11):
Guys.
Speaker 12 (21:11):
Hey, you're absolutely right, Calvin. They just wait forever. This
is this is definition of insandy. It's crazy, like to me,
you know, CD should have been signed a full year
before that, the same thing. If you're going to keep them,
sign them, you know what I'm saying. They should be
working on dron Bland right now. They should be working
(21:31):
on Kyler Smith right now. And they're gonna let their
contracts get absolutely out of hand as well. I mean,
playoff success.
Speaker 8 (21:40):
They haven't had it, but.
Speaker 12 (21:41):
Neither have the Steelers. I mean, Mike has played four
games and has one sack.
Speaker 8 (21:46):
TJ.
Speaker 12 (21:46):
Watt played four games, had one sack. Cowboys beat the
uh you know, Tom Brady and the Bucks at one year,
zero wins for you know, TJ.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
Watt.
Speaker 12 (21:57):
He gets paid. I mean everybody day. That's how it goes,
so you got to stay ahead of it. Nobody. Everybody
wants to talk about the Cowboys. To me, this is
about well.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
But you got to be a but but.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
But be honest, Michael, the Cowboys, there's no way in
the world that they should be a team that hasn't
been in an NFC championship game in thirty some odd years.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
And that's the argument. That's all right, because.
Speaker 12 (22:21):
Great shots right always they always underperform in the playoffs.
And you heard what LaMarcus are not in the Marcus
Excuse me? Bill Marcus said, you know, yeah, he wanted
that podcast and basically said the pressure got to him.
I don't think him and Michael got along. I think
there was some ship going on there with the excuse me.
Speaker 6 (22:38):
Oh boy, let's you They done got him fired up.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
All right, Let's let's squeeze in one more. How about
is this Dawn from Dallas. You're in the couple of
Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
What's up, Dawn, Robin Calvin, great show, Thank you. I
do know Jerry Jones, I know I know Stephen Jones,
and I think our big mistake is thinking that they
want to win a fourth Super Bowl. All they care
about is keeping the butts in the seats, and they
don't really like. I mean, if they hadn't fired Jimmy Johnson,
(23:10):
they would have probably had five super Bowls in a row.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Probably ego, ego.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
You know how that goes. Man with powerful money, powerful men.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
They want you to know I'm the most powerful on
How dare Jimmy Johnson come over here, getting on a
credit and taking on my shine?
Speaker 5 (23:23):
It says Jared.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
Exactly, And I do believe, No, I actually do believe
he wants to win because I think he's tired of
being the big bad owner of all the owners and
the leader of the owners in the NFL. But other
ones can tell I've been to the Super Bowl, I've
won multiple I've won super Bowl. I want and kind
of have that over his head. I absolutely don't think
he likes guys having.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
That over his head. That dudes, you ain't did nothing
really since Jimmy Johnson.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
Rob, You're right about it's exactly thirty years this year
since they've been in the NFC champions I.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Mean, that's ridiculous, ridiculous even the Lions Championship game.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Sorry, but shoot.
Speaker 6 (23:58):
Man, the Jags, Yeah, to the AFC champions You won't
have six championship against the Patriots.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Yep, it was since then the Jack the.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Pant hasn't been to the Super Bowl. You name a
bad team, they've been there.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
The band.
Speaker 7 (24:13):
You'll laugh at me. But I think the Browns will
get there before the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Wow, you mind?
Speaker 5 (24:18):
If they kept Baker Mayfield, they might have had a shot.
Speaker 7 (24:21):
Crazy.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
I appreciate the call.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
Thank you all right on the way and get a
conversation about the new news that's happened in WNBA.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Maybe I was right, huh, Maybe I was Yeah, No, you.
Speaker 6 (24:32):
Listen, you ain't wrong when you're right right now? Who
we got in there at? Steven Sager?
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Hello, gentlemen, say Steve, let's get to the MLB scoreboard
because things resumed for Major League Baseball today at Wrigley Field, Chicago,
where the Cubs beat Boston ended the Red Sox ten
game winning streak four to one. Say Suzuki a three
run homer in the first. The loss to Lucas Gilito
had been six and one. This year, the Cubs are
first in the NL Central. They were one game over
(25:00):
of the Brewers Milwaukee, which has won seven in row
as one of the late games, starting a series at
Dodger Stadium ten pm Eastern time. Right now, the Angels
are tied one to one at Philadelphia. In the bottom
of the third for Philly, Kyle Schwarber his thirty first
home run of the year, Philadelphia first in the NL
East half game over the Mets. The Mets are in
action and leading one nothing against the Reds. In the
(25:22):
top of the second, Juan Soto with his twenty fourth
homer the Marlins out to a three to nothing lead
on the Royals. Top of the second, All Star Kyle
Stowers with an early home run. Braves lead two to
nothing against the Yankees bottom of the first inning. Yankees
pitcher Max Freed out with a blister, could return next week.
Giants at Blue Jays scoreless in the top of the second.
Padres lead one nothing at Washington top of the fourth,
(25:45):
and the White Sox scored three in the first. They
now lead three to nothing at Pittsburgh bottom of the
third inning. White Sox on the road eleven and thirty six.
Scottie Scheffler leads the open by one stroke after a
second round sixty four. In Northern Ireland, Mats fitz pat
He is from England and Matt Fitzpatricks in second place.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
At this major.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
Rory McElroy is tied for twelve seven shots. Back Packers
wide receiver Christian Watson was placed on the PUP list.
Raiders defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, with a bad foot placed
on the physically unable to perform list. Forty nine Ers
wide receiver Brandon i Yuk is on the pup list,
as is wide receiver Ricky Piersoll. WNBA on All Star
Weekend in Indianapolis. The next IndyCar Race is Sunday on
(26:27):
the streets of Toronto on Fox TV.
Speaker 6 (26:30):
Back to you, all right, Steve, thank you so much.
We are the odd couple. Rod Parker Kevin Washington on
a Fucky Flashback Friday again as DJ Alex on the
Ones and twos providing the sound there. All right, Rob,
we gotta talk about the WNBA All Star Weekend and
All Star Game. We talked about Kaitlin Clark not gonna
participate and the game because of injuries.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
And what did I tell you yesterday?
Speaker 2 (26:53):
They should cancel the WNBA All Star Weekend.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Yes, well, no, you're wrong about but even though they
don't do that, you were right there.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
Listen, the tickets have plummeted. Now they say they're down.
They had to drop.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
The price is dag near fifty percent, around forty something percent, because,
of course, folks, the remaining tickets that were available, people
are like, I ain't going to that, you know, because
she's out. And now they're dropped down about forty eight percent.
So you're looking at what was about one hundred and
twenty one dollars on average now down to sixty.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Four bucks plus you get a bag of reduced lettuce
with the tickets.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
I'm just saying, hey, you better not say that, Rob,
you might mess around and go to the game.
Speaker 7 (27:36):
Now.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
They were attached to the back of the bag of
my salad.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
That's what it was.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Parent tickets. Alex. You know this right now.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
If you go out to your car, Alex, there were
two WNBA All Star Game tickets attached to your windshield.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
You're so nice for that, Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
You know.
Speaker 6 (27:52):
You know what this does though, and it's no news,
I mean in the sense that we've talked about this,
you and I a million times.
Speaker 5 (27:58):
But it just shows how huge she is to a sport.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
And I don't know if there's any other person's been
like Lebron is probably you know, the engine of the NBA,
maybe Patrick Mahomes, the NFL, probably either Judge or show Hey, MLB,
so on and so forth. But if show Hay didn't
play an MLB All Star game, you know what, ticket
prices weren't gonna drop forty eight percent?
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Rob nothing right, same thing if Judge wasn't there.
Speaker 6 (28:24):
If Judges wasn't there, they wouldn't drop Lebron James remember
said no, I'm not playing the night before or whatever.
Guess what tickets would have still been priced what they
were if Steph Curry said I'm not playing this year,
that is a ridiculous. If she ever needed a gauge
a metric, that's insane. One star is out and they
drop almost fifty percent of the place.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
This is what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
If I'm the WNBA, she's not releasing that news and
we're not knowing that she's not gonna play until everybody's
arrived in any of that place. I'm just telling you
you are not gonna know, and you'll find out when
you get to it. She's starting a game, she's a
game time decision. She's not gonna played a three point shot, right,
(29:07):
so we could do that. But she's a game because
she's there. She's supposed to be gonna be there anyway,
so she's a game time decision. She's gonna try to
give it a go. And then people love still buying tickets.
They're still hoping that they're going to that it's gonna
be cool, you know what I mean, and she might
play or whatever there. I would have been sick if
(29:28):
I was a commissioner and I found out that this
was announced.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
We gotta figure out something like, hey, hey, still buy
tickets and she'll give you an autograph and a picture. Something
we're gonna have to do like Chris Brown does that
on his tour. You can come to the concert, but
you can pay another thousand dollars and he has these
ladies will come up there and he'll take a picture,
and literally.
Speaker 5 (29:47):
Rley does whatever they ask.
Speaker 6 (29:48):
So if they're like, you know, squeeze my cheeks and
I don't mean the ones on her face still squeeze,
seeke pick me up?
Speaker 5 (29:54):
He picks them up.
Speaker 6 (29:55):
But he's getting extra money because they're paying a thousand
dollars for a quick meet and Greek for a picture
and then it's the AWNBA.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Hey you get to get.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
A pick with Caitlin in autograph basketball if you still
come by these tickets or something, because that's incredible. And again,
that's a great metric for her team, her agent, her investors,
her whole you know, financial folks around her to say,
we know what we're worth because because think about again,
if Asia Wilson's the best player in the NBA at WNBA,
that's not even debatable.
Speaker 5 (30:23):
She goes out them tickets ain't dropping like that.
Speaker 6 (30:25):
Breonna Stewart goes out them, tickets ain't dropping like that.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
That's a big drop. That's our big drop.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
And rob Patrick Mahomes doesn't play in the Pro Bowl.
Patrick Mahomes doesn't play in the game. The NFL can't
drop it fifty percent. They might cut it five.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
But this is what I was saying, and the reason
I even came up with the whole idea of canceling
everything is it centers around her.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Where's where's the game.
Speaker 5 (30:49):
Of this series? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Exactly right, Yeah, I mean the whole thing was centered
around her, and for her not to be able to
participate is a bummer for the whole and for everybody
everybody else can say, well, there are other stars and
it's not just about her, and that sounds good.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
I'll tell you about the ratings.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
If you're ABC and you're showing that game Saturday night
at eight thirty, are you kidding? They'd rather the right
now at ABC, they're thinking, should we put on the
Ten Commandments of Ben Hur?
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Now?
Speaker 5 (31:20):
That one was funny. I'll give you that. That was funny.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
I mean, what won't you we do that, like, we'll
probably get better ratings for Ben Hur, not not.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Shane's shaking his head. Shane, what are you shaking your
head for? What? Ben her? Oh?
Speaker 5 (31:34):
Okay, y'all gott to relax. Y'all not gonna make it six.
Speaker 13 (31:37):
Years, guys, I'm not even full time yet. Please, I'm
trying to make it.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
I got it. You guys have been here for a while.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
Listen, here's the thing. This is what I said the
other day.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
Rob.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
If you're the WNBA, you're gonna have to do like this.
You're gonna have to say, we know the viewership's gonna
be down, and we know obviously the price is gone
down forty eight.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
Percent, but what they have to master moving forward?
Speaker 6 (31:58):
To me, this was sometimes got to throw you something
you didn't expect, and even in a tough situation, so
you gotta go all right, this was an ideal, But
we have to figure out a way to market our stars.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Right.
Speaker 6 (32:09):
She can't just be the sun in our solar system
and everything goes around her. We have to find ways
to big up Asia, Sabrina, Brianna, Kelsey, Mitchell, whoever else
you want to big up, because this can't be the
case that we only go.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
As Kaitlin Clark. No other business is like that except golf.
Golf was like that.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
They're the tiger Woods there. If Tiger ain't playing well, danked,
wasn't nobody watching. That's what it is. She is a
tiger wooded phenomenon like that where one person can change
the fluctuate and you know the influx of viewers and
prices and all that. That's insane. That's a compliment to her,
without a doubt. All right, shekel city on the way and.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
No, we got games tonight. Baseball is back. We had
no games the last two nights or in the WNBA,
So respectful.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
I don't bet on the w A. I'm not come on,
I'm not.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
I'm being honest, I'm gonna give you WNBA's I mean.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Rob, why do I have season tickets to Sparks on
my car? I know season tickets? What happened? They know
what's going on.
Speaker 5 (33:07):

What is all that? They're so far away, They're in
a truck. They can't hear him.
Speaker 5 (35:50):
They're so far away, and it makes me laugh.

They're like, you know, it's and I'm not saying you
gotta be loud as if it's a you know, some you'
not have to be it's.
Speaker 5 (35:58):
A basketball game, Kevin Harlan or anything. I get. I
get that, but.
Speaker 13 (36:04):
I got something. It's a three day event, it's a
four or five hour event. They're talking for a long time.
They're saving their voice. You know, I feel like you
can't be screaming the entire time. If you want to
be logical about it, we can.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Say that if somebody makes an incredible shot. Or why
wouldn't you scream I'll go crazy.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Go crazy, folks, go crazy.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
That was a hole in one, go.

Seriously, where's HR you need? Well, we know where HR
is the Coldplay cos Oh gosh, I need your thoughts

a CEO at a Coldplay concert. Put him on the Megatron.
They found out he was having an affair with the
lady that he works with. Where to help me out here?
Speaker 6 (37:02):
I was telling you this, Alex. The only thought because
obviously this is blown up, is going crazy. We talked
a little bit about it yesterday. The only thing I'll
add to this is I want to say this now
on record for you, Rob Alex, yourself, Alex Shay Steve.
Remember I said this, They're gonna get a Netflix show
out of this. It's so this they've blown up too
big that now.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
That's the only plot though we already know that the
plot loot.
Speaker 6 (37:27):
The plot is going to be I think everybody, you're no,
it's gonna be what it's going to be, the precursor,
what led to it, and then it's gonna be how
we live through this trauma.
Speaker 5 (37:37):
We were trauma people. It's gonna be.
Speaker 6 (37:42):
No, it's gonna be a reality to show how they
moved forward.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
I don't that's a billionaire. He's gonna move to Italy.
No one's ever going to see him again.
Speaker 10 (37:50):
Oh, you don't know the American way, are you right?
Speaker 6 (37:54):
This is the American way. They're absolutely gonna cash. You
know what, rich people like Shay more money than You're right,
absolutely cashing. Somebody's gonna come give them a bunch of
money to do nothing.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Alex, did you see the Sports center anchors we we

Speaker 1 (38:11):
Yeah, the AM Sports ESPN guys.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
At like four o'clock in the morning, two guys do
the same exact thing with they're cuddling like they're doing

on them.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
You didn't see that a sports I didn't see that.
You saw it you wild.
Speaker 9 (38:26):
I think that's what the actual singer the cole Play
literally said, Oh they're either having.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Chris Martin call.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
But you know why because of the way that they react.
If you were a couple, right and this was cold
you wouldn't have been able. You wouldn't be doing that.
You wouldn't have been hiding and acting like, oh my god.
Speaker 5 (38:43):
We got calling.
Speaker 6 (38:44):
You've said in months, Rob Parker, better than any take, because.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
You know your takes don't be it.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
It was go ask YouTube.
Speaker 5 (38:53):
You said he should have gave it a Heimlich. That
was funny. That's what I would have done, Like that's
that's that's funny.
Speaker 6 (39:01):
Play it off, do something that man duck like my
daughter when I say, who hate the cookies?
Speaker 9 (39:07):
Robbie know it's crazy you you're a billionaire. This guy Ryan,
how are you somebody at work?
Speaker 3 (39:14):
Really?
Speaker 1 (39:15):
And not only that, but you'll know you're out in public,
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
If no one's going to see you or her, I mean,
you don't know who's going to the concert.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
Do you have the do you have the guest list
for the Coldplay concert? Kelvin? Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (39:28):
Like you know it could be your next door neighbor,
it could be your pastor or somebody from the church.
I'm just saying, like, how in the world could you
do that? Thinking too thinking no one's going to see you.
You're not in a private hotel room.
Speaker 5 (39:44):
Tell us how it goes again?
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Right, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (39:45):
When she pulls up first and okay, okay, and then
he got shy out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
No, then you wring the phone and there you okay, okay,
all right, you're.
Speaker 5 (39:56):
Just saying balms and say, hey, you didn't see anything.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
Here's twenty dollars exactly, all right. I just think it
was wild. That was a work event.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
Yeah, I agree, like to be booed up and everybody
knows and you have a Can you imagine a wife
going it's embarrassing to come into that office and no
one had the nerve to pull me aside and say anything.

you doing? What are you doing?
Speaker 6 (40:20):
Listen, We're gonna talk later on about some other stories.
There's a common denominator, Okay, you think too highly just
because you went away for a decade. If you know
what I'm talking about. People, ain't that smarty. I'm just saying,
just me, man. It happens all. Remember Arnold Schwarzenegger, You
remember that Rob. It was like living I love.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
He had a baby Witner, he had a baby Wider
and they were living in the house, and and and
the wife didn't know.
Speaker 5 (40:52):

Speaker 1 (02:46):
You telling me this one green? This is green green
on a not.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Green ham noo okay real quick, and you tell me

But I'm jan these deals, and and when I see
a deal, I'm gonna I'm gonna go for you. Ready,
here it comes. I'm sending you the picture and you

Speaker 1 (03:06):
We got here. Okay, let's see what we got We

Speaker 5 (03:12):
Yeah, we're ready. Were we go?
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Dollar twelve for a salad mixed?
Speaker 8 (03:18):
Rob?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
That's impressive. That's impressive.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Am I right?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
You can see the brown in the lettuce? No, you
cannot see brown? Would you stop?
Speaker 5 (03:27):
Shade?
Speaker 1 (03:27):
What where's the brown?
Speaker 5 (03:29):
A little bit?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
That's what?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Hey, Shae, that's my hand holding a package. That's the
only brown.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Let me see.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Let me see what you can't see it on your phone.
It's on your phone.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
I can see. Oh shoot, I see me.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Would you stop?
Speaker 9 (03:46):
Let's see Rob, I'll say this. This is actually mineral
base lettuce too. It's butterleaf and red leaf.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Good. Jot's on iceberg. That's right.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
You know he's gonna cherry pick and only get the iceberg.
We know that for sure.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
And here's the other thing too, the expiration on the lettuce.
July twentieth, No, and that's a couple of days.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
Where do you see that? July twentieth it's at the top.
You can't see it, but it's July twenty.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Convenient. We can't see it. No, but it is. I
would tell me about the hamp the.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Look under the reduced I saw seven seventeen, and I
thought that woul look under.
Speaker 10 (04:19):
The reduced see it because I feel like he would
have taken a picture of that, just to prove the point. Yeah,
we go back there, Well, we'll be I'll be FaceTime. No, no, no,
it was the twenty. But my point. Nothing wrong with this, right.
The lettuce is good?
Speaker 6 (04:31):
But okay, but Rob, this is the issue. We're not
necessarily mad at the lettuce blend. Okay, you were eating
meats in mayonnaise and cheat the chicken salad that was
reduced and flown across the country, and hams that were green.
And I come back in the studio, what do you say, Oh,
my stomach hurts.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Did you did you not? I said my stomach. I
didn't say it heard. I just said my stomach.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I was just mister semantics, all right.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
No, Hey, it's a funky flashback Friday. Let's welcome in
the odd couple crew who I never get Mark. I'm
just saying, Alex is our engineer, Shay is our producer
for rob Gez.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Working on it. Work something about the valley. You're from
the valley, Let's find it something for the valley.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Steve the Sagas.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
He'll keep us updated and of course Elijah that is
our social media guru and uh he will keep us
going live all over social media.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Do Doug live. Thank you Bill. Uh. We already know
the t J.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Watt contract right, which was a big one for the Steelers,
and then Kelvin today just thoughts about Micah Parsons and
the Cowboys, and we know what Jerry Jones.
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Can you just so the conversation is a Yard Barker story,
which is really.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Which makes sense because it makes the boy.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Say they didn't break anything in the sense that everybody's
had to hear. We go again, so the thought process
is here we go with TJ. Watt getting that, and
you and I have agreed we're gonna call it a
eight million dollar deal, the one hundred and eight, not
the what they said. The guaranteed portion of it four years,
one hundred and eight forty one mil a year for TJ. Watt,
(06:21):
who obviously we know is amazing, but he is also older,
a half full of years older than Michael Parsons. So
your logic goes to, well, Michael Parson's been just about
as good, just about his prolific a lot younger, and
he's playing in Dallas, so that payday gots to be crazy.
And they're in lies of conversation, Rob, that the Cowboys
(06:41):
done did it again?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
The cowboys? This is the issue.
Speaker 6 (06:46):
The definition Rob of insanity is what doing the same
thing over and over and expecting a different outcome. And
really that's exactly what the Cowboys keep doing. They keep
doing the same thing, playing around and free agency. You
ever had a leak something going on in your house, man,
little we gotta check on this leak. We gotta look
at this leak. And they say it's gonna be about
(07:07):
three hundred dollars. You're like, let me just we'll wait.
We'll wait, all right, You might not want to wait.
Cir could get worse, and you get worse, and they
got to come back, and that three hundred dollars goes
to three thousand dollars. That's what the Dallas Cowboys keep doing.
You know, you've identified your stars, Dak Prescott, CD Lamb
and Michael Parsons pay the men their money, and what
(07:27):
they keep doing is waiting around, trying to find a
better deal, trying to finago. Maybe they'll get a hometown discount,
and they end up getting screwed over to the tune
of sixty million. They gotta pick Dak Prescott, they had
to pay more money for CI have to do that
over again. They wouldn't do that one hundred percent. And
it's not that he's a horrible quarterback. It's just he's
not worth sixty. But when you keep waiting and you
(07:48):
have no more leverage, or you see the other guy
get the bag, and that's what happened with Cede Lamb.
You see other receivers get their money. Then you're forced
to pay CD Lamb a bunch of money.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
You want to set the market, not be not you
know what I mean exactly?
Speaker 5 (08:01):
You want to be early. All right, here's I'm making
it up.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Here's thirty two mil you and then now somebody else
has to go higher than you. You want to set it,
But no, they keep waiting, And I just don't understand
for them to be such a big organization understanding money,
trying to do something different, because again, definition is saying
they're doing the same thing over and you keep doing this,
you keep stubbing your toe, wasting money when you know
you've identified the guys you have to keep because Jerry
(08:25):
Jones ultimately pays these guys.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
So I genuinely don't understand it. I don't get it.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
But it also is the reason why they've been in
perpetually a good team at best, a mid team more
than likely over the last thirty years because of moves
like this. And the common denominator is what rob Jerry Jones,
What you're gonna do? Get rid of the owner?
Speaker 5 (08:45):
He owned it.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, that's why this is not a shocker at all.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
This is Jerry and he has there's a reason that
thirty two years have gone by they haven't even been
to the forget about going to the super Bowl, but
even playing in a conference championship. I mean that is
insane when you really think about the way the NFL
set up, and all he ever does is wait, wait, wait,
(09:12):
and it costs him and I just cannot understand it
or figure it out. But again, it's Jerry, and he's
done this over and over and over again. And you know,
if you're not gonna do it, and I mean.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Pay them, then you should trade them.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
And there was a little talk at one point, right
the Cowboys had more holes in the golf course, so
maybe they were better off and thinking like we could
get a couple of pieces, you know what I mean,
and get this thing righted, so to give ourselves a chance.
Obviously you don't want to give up a player like
Michael Parsons, but you got to give to get sometimes.
And if you're not going to pay them, as soon
as you can pay somebody and you identify them as
(09:50):
somebody who would get that kind of a deal.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
You should just do it early.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Early is always better because even if it's a mistake,
it's lower than waiting.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
It's a lower price than waiting.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
And you've seen enough even though the defense has been awful,
starting with that playoff game last year against Green Bay,
right terrible, and they were terrible to start the to
start the season, the defense, But ultimately.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
You're crazy.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
I think.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
I just think my question is are they waiting? Are
they debating? Do they really want to sign Michael Parsons?
You know he's into the podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I still believe that the best move would be to
trade him. He seems to be into other stuff. The
defense hasn't been that great. You could get a haul
for him. There are plenty of teams that would take him.
If I'm the Cowboys, I think I might entertain that,
and I would, I would, I would move on.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
They're not going anywhere for him. He's the problem is
or he loves them. You and I have sat up
here and talked about how he cutting himself short. Remember,
oh Man, I told him agent on his podcast, I
don't even care if we gotta lose money.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Let's just get the deal done. I want to stay here.
Whoaao what you hired me for? If you're gonna do
all that?
Speaker 6 (11:08):
He's up off the podcast and let the agent agent.
And so he's already said that. I think he's in
love with him. They're in love with him. And here's
the crazy part. I mean, as much as he'd been
in the lexicon for US sports folks now talking about him,
dude is only twenty five years old, which is absolutely insane,
how young he is, how prolific he is. He's twenty
six years old now now he's twenty six. But even
(11:31):
last year Rob he was injured, nicked up banged up,
only plays thirteen games. Dude comes back and gives you
twelve sacks, that's how good he is.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
Two forced fumbles, thirty solo tackles. I mean then.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Numbers of the team. The defense wasn't good.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
True, but you can't let go of a twenty six
year old guy that good. Jerry Jones would never allow
himself to do that because if avi mark but you.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Didn't win, you didn't win with them. So what that means,
you're gonna.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
Go back to two seasons ago when they had a chance,
they had a great record at thirteen and three, they're
gonna look at that and say, when we're fully healthy.
Dak is healthy, Mic is healthy. Skill didn't doing anything
in the playoff. But my point is, don't talk to
me like talk to me like I'm Jerry.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I'm just saying like, unless you really could could store
up a couple other positions, like this team isn't close
and now you're you're what You're in a division with
the Eagles, right, yep uh? And the NFC is not
a pushover. There's a lot of good teams whatnot. Everybody
except the Lions might probably not get I know you
(12:33):
can't have a kid. But you get my point is
they have other issues. Would you agree with that? And
and I know they have some injuries, and you want
to believe in Dak and all that they got to
fix that defense if they really want to have a shot.
And I get it, and I get the Micah Parson.
I know how much talent he has.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It just seems like he's preoccupied with other stuff as well.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
But he still comes to play. And he's too young.
And you know, I'm annoyed with the podcast. You remember
getting them beef with players and Marcus Lawrence when he left,
are talking about other people's salary. He's done a bunch
of goofy stuff that I don't like with these podcasts.
And but now you're looking at a situation, just to
go back to the top of the conversation, where we
know TJ got forty one million annually. Now you're looking
(13:17):
at a situation where again, because they've waited so long,
they might cost themselves where he might make forty five annually.
And you can say, well it's one million, but four
million is huge because that four million can go to
another defensive defensive back. You could have signed that four
million can go get your running backs. You have to
revisit Ezekiel Elliott type situations where you got to spend
a block on the old Ezekiel Elliott. I mean they're
(13:39):
saying that he could get up to anywhere near two
hundred million because of the Micah I mean TJ.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
Watt deal and the Miles Garrett deal.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
You let those two guys get in front, and they're
older than him, so now his agent can really say,
look at those guys, He's about the same talent as
them and they're older than him.
Speaker 5 (13:58):
Pay the man some crazy money.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
So once again, Jarry Jones's fucking himself to me in
a deficit and put himself behind the eight ball where
he's lost money that he could have used to as
your point is, fill these holes and build up a
better team.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
All right, It is the couple.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
And guess what aching knees, stiff, back joints not cooperating.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Some days your body just feels like no way know how.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
And on those days, luckily there's a leave with just
one pill.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
A leave provides up to twelve hours of pain relief
so that you can keep moving. Use as directed we
want to hear from You eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox eight seven seven nine nine, six sixty three
sixty nine, And Michael Parters is the Cowboys?
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Where are you are they? Just?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Why are they procrastinating? Did they see something that maybe
made them pause and hesitate? You know, because otherwise after
his first couple of seasons, you would have thought that
he would have been locked up forever. And for whatever reason,
they're taking their time or or the cowboys uh with
sugar and just crazy and doing the same old stuff.
(15:05):
And this is Jerry and there's nothing new here in
cowboy Land? Where are you on this? Should they have
signed them already? And should they sign them? And should
he make more than TJ?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Watt? Where are You?
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox? It is The
Odd Couple on a funky Flashback Friday, Rob Parker, Kelvin

conversation about what we talked about yesterday once the news
about Kaitlyn Clark came out not gonna play an All
Star game in the three point contest, Well, some things
have changed.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
We'll explain what that is in a moment.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
Right now, we're talking about the Dallas Cowboys waiting to
that one along.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
What's new?
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Par for the course for them, and now they might
have to cash out a whole bunch of money. To
Michael Parsons, I say, it's just the definition of insanity
doing the same thing over expecting difference results. That would
be Jay Jones. Rob pretty much says the same thing.
This is part for the business for them. What's say
you eight seven seven ninety nine one Fox? So we
got all right, let's kick it off. I'm thinking Fred
and Maryland. You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Fred?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Fred? Is that you.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
All right?
Speaker 7 (17:40):
There?
Speaker 8 (17:41):
I'm sorry, I was yeah, I'm sorry, I was viewed
my bad Robins.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
All right, what's what's happening? How are you?
Speaker 8 (17:46):
I'm doing good? Hope y'all doing good too?
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Oh? Good brother.
Speaker 8 (17:50):
I think y'all are slightly incorrect on this. Okay, the
CD lamb, it came out that he wanted to wait
for Justine Jepson to get paid first before he signed
his dual. So that's one that Jerry didn't wait on
because it takes two to tango. So I'm pretty sure
if somebody came, he out of the contract and you're like, nah,
I'm go wait you with such a sign first, and so.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Dak Prestcott was what what it was.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
Back see now, now now we get to what you
write about that that thing when I can't believe they
did it again. He had a no trade calls in
his first contract, idioticy, then you sign him the first
day of the season and give him another no trade case, right,
that's me. I can't back that man for that. And
(18:34):
then the Mica one, that's another one. So you know
he got one. I guess he probably waited on CD two.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
But yeah, see now you say to CD, and I
hear your point, but I argue that that sounds cute.
Until I make you offer, you can't refuse, still knowing
Justin Jefferson is gonna get more money, so meaning if
I can just offer you this and like Rob, what
I were talking about, it's gonna be high, right. These
guys are special talents. But knowing we can set the
market so really is forcing them to go higher. So
(19:02):
to me, if you know he wants to stay here,
you know he wants to have that star and his helmet.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
To me, you can make it happen.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
They just chronically wait until it gets too awkward and
it becomes less advantageous for them.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
No doubt.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I think Jerry has mishandled it and not having a
real front office in GM, you know what I mean, Like.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Like you mean anybody but himself?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Yeah, I mean, it's just he says he's gonna do
it hisself and that's why they have him won.
Speaker 5 (19:26):
And who knows it better than me?
Speaker 6 (19:28):
Rob, That's what he told us, He said, who knows
this position better than me?
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Crazy?
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Daniel in Florida, you're in the odd couple of Fox
Sports Radio. What's up, Daniel, Aby Kelvin?
Speaker 11 (19:38):
Thanks for having me on. Guys, Yes, sir, I just
I agree with Kelvin. I think they definitely should have
paid him early. You know, such a dominant talent like
that coming out of college. Then he you know pretty
much does the same thing at the NFL level. I
feel like that was a no brainer, definitely. You know,
should have set the market waiting for for Miles Garrett
to get paid.
Speaker 12 (19:55):
TJ you get paid.
Speaker 11 (19:57):
I certainly think they should have paid him first.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
You have no problem with where the defense is headed
or was that just injury? Because the defense was awful
in the playoffs and to start the season if you remember,
they were giving up a forty piece Daniel almost every game.
Speaker 8 (20:12):
Absolutely right, I think, uh, you know, the agent kind.
Speaker 7 (20:15):
Of outside line back position.
Speaker 11 (20:17):
Of course, you know they're they're going to do some
kind of pass coverage. But but really, I mean we're
looking at Trayvon dig out with Tony that.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Yeah, they they had a lot of injuries, right They
their star players were out too, So I mean I'll
cut them a those their star.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Players weren't all out in that playoff game against Green Bay.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
Come on, you ain't never gonna let them.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I'm not going I'm not, Daniel. You're you're a fan, right,
you're a Cowboys fan. Do we lose them?
Speaker 7 (20:44):
Fan?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Okayybody, but I'm that playoff game, I mean, I get it.
People are hurt in the NFL. There's no way they
were supposed to get blown out. They got blowed out
at home in a playoff game, and it was no doubt.
Thank you, Daniel, thanks for the support. Michael in Portland.
You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. It's
not dame time anymore. What is it lame time? Important
(21:08):
show us up.
Speaker 12 (21:10):
Thanks for having me back.
Speaker 7 (21:11):
Guys.
Speaker 12 (21:11):
Hey, you're absolutely right, Calvin. They just wait forever. This
is this is definition of insandy. It's crazy, like to me,
you know, CD should have been signed a full year
before that, the same thing. If you're going to keep them,
sign them, you know what I'm saying. They should be
working on dron Bland right now. They should be working
(21:31):
on Kyler Smith right now. And they're gonna let their
contracts get absolutely out of hand as well. I mean,
playoff success.
Speaker 8 (21:40):
They haven't had it, but.
Speaker 12 (21:41):
Neither have the Steelers. I mean, Mike has played four
games and has one sack.
Speaker 8 (21:46):
TJ.
Speaker 12 (21:46):
Watt played four games, had one sack. Cowboys beat the
uh you know, Tom Brady and the Bucks at one year,
zero wins for you know, TJ.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
Watt.
Speaker 12 (21:57):
He gets paid. I mean everybody day. That's how it goes,
so you got to stay ahead of it. Nobody. Everybody
wants to talk about the Cowboys. To me, this is
about well.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
But you got to be a but but.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
But be honest, Michael, the Cowboys, there's no way in
the world that they should be a team that hasn't
been in an NFC championship game in thirty some odd years.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
And that's the argument. That's all right, because.
Speaker 12 (22:21):
Great shots right always they always underperform in the playoffs.
And you heard what LaMarcus are not in the Marcus
Excuse me? Bill Marcus said, you know, yeah, he wanted
that podcast and basically said the pressure got to him.
I don't think him and Michael got along. I think
there was some ship going on there with the excuse me.
Speaker 6 (22:38):
Oh boy, let's you They done got him fired up.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
All right, Let's let's squeeze in one more. How about
is this Dawn from Dallas. You're in the couple of
Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
What's up, Dawn, Robin Calvin, great show, Thank you. I
do know Jerry Jones, I know I know Stephen Jones,
and I think our big mistake is thinking that they
want to win a fourth Super Bowl. All they care
about is keeping the butts in the seats, and they
don't really like. I mean, if they hadn't fired Jimmy Johnson,
(23:10):
they would have probably had five super Bowls in a row.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Probably ego, ego.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
You know how that goes. Man with powerful money, powerful men.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
They want you to know I'm the most powerful on
How dare Jimmy Johnson come over here, getting on a
credit and taking on my shine?
Speaker 5 (23:23):
It says Jared.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
Exactly, And I do believe, No, I actually do believe
he wants to win because I think he's tired of
being the big bad owner of all the owners and
the leader of the owners in the NFL. But other
ones can tell I've been to the Super Bowl, I've
won multiple I've won super Bowl. I want and kind
of have that over his head. I absolutely don't think
he likes guys having.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
That over his head. That dudes, you ain't did nothing
really since Jimmy Johnson.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
Rob, You're right about it's exactly thirty years this year
since they've been in the NFC champions I.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Mean, that's ridiculous, ridiculous even the Lions Championship game.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Sorry, but shoot.
Speaker 6 (23:58):
Man, the Jags, Yeah, to the AFC champions You won't
have six championship against the Patriots.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Yep, it was since then the Jack the.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Pant hasn't been to the Super Bowl. You name a
bad team, they've been there.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
The band.
Speaker 7 (24:13):
You'll laugh at me. But I think the Browns will
get there before the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Wow, you mind?
Speaker 5 (24:18):
If they kept Baker Mayfield, they might have had a shot.
Speaker 7 (24:21):
Crazy.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
I appreciate the call.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
Thank you all right on the way and get a
conversation about the new news that's happened in WNBA.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Maybe I was right, huh, Maybe I was Yeah, No, you.
Speaker 6 (24:32):
Listen, you ain't wrong when you're right right now? Who
we got in there at? Steven Sager?
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Hello, gentlemen, say Steve, let's get to the MLB scoreboard
because things resumed for Major League Baseball today at Wrigley Field, Chicago,
where the Cubs beat Boston ended the Red Sox ten
game winning streak four to one. Say Suzuki a three
run homer in the first. The loss to Lucas Gilito
had been six and one. This year, the Cubs are
first in the NL Central. They were one game over
(25:00):
of the Brewers Milwaukee, which has won seven in row
as one of the late games, starting a series at
Dodger Stadium ten pm Eastern time. Right now, the Angels
are tied one to one at Philadelphia. In the bottom
of the third for Philly, Kyle Schwarber his thirty first
home run of the year, Philadelphia first in the NL
East half game over the Mets. The Mets are in
action and leading one nothing against the Reds. In the
(25:22):
top of the second, Juan Soto with his twenty fourth
homer the Marlins out to a three to nothing lead
on the Royals. Top of the second, All Star Kyle
Stowers with an early home run. Braves lead two to
nothing against the Yankees bottom of the first inning. Yankees
pitcher Max Freed out with a blister, could return next week.
Giants at Blue Jays scoreless in the top of the second.
Padres lead one nothing at Washington top of the fourth,
(25:45):
and the White Sox scored three in the first. They
now lead three to nothing at Pittsburgh bottom of the
third inning. White Sox on the road eleven and thirty six.
Scottie Scheffler leads the open by one stroke after a
second round sixty four. In Northern Ireland, Mats fitz pat
He is from England and Matt Fitzpatricks in second place.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
At this major.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
Rory McElroy is tied for twelve seven shots. Back Packers
wide receiver Christian Watson was placed on the PUP list.
Raiders defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, with a bad foot placed
on the physically unable to perform list. Forty nine Ers
wide receiver Brandon i Yuk is on the pup list,
as is wide receiver Ricky Piersoll. WNBA on All Star
Weekend in Indianapolis. The next IndyCar Race is Sunday on
(26:27):
the streets of Toronto on Fox TV.
Speaker 6 (26:30):
Back to you, all right, Steve, thank you so much.
We are the odd couple. Rod Parker Kevin Washington on
a Fucky Flashback Friday again as DJ Alex on the
Ones and twos providing the sound there. All right, Rob,
we gotta talk about the WNBA All Star Weekend and
All Star Game. We talked about Kaitlin Clark not gonna
participate and the game because of injuries.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
And what did I tell you yesterday?
Speaker 2 (26:53):
They should cancel the WNBA All Star Weekend.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Yes, well, no, you're wrong about but even though they
don't do that, you were right there.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
Listen, the tickets have plummeted. Now they say they're down.
They had to drop.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
The price is dag near fifty percent, around forty something percent, because,
of course, folks, the remaining tickets that were available, people
are like, I ain't going to that, you know, because
she's out. And now they're dropped down about forty eight percent.
So you're looking at what was about one hundred and
twenty one dollars on average now down to sixty.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Four bucks plus you get a bag of reduced lettuce
with the tickets.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
I'm just saying, hey, you better not say that, Rob,
you might mess around and go to the game.
Speaker 7 (27:36):
Now.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
They were attached to the back of the bag of
my salad.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
That's what it was.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Parent tickets. Alex. You know this right now.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
If you go out to your car, Alex, there were
two WNBA All Star Game tickets attached to your windshield.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
You're so nice for that, Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
You know.
Speaker 6 (27:52):
You know what this does though, and it's no news,
I mean in the sense that we've talked about this,
you and I a million times.
Speaker 5 (27:58):
But it just shows how huge she is to a sport.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
And I don't know if there's any other person's been
like Lebron is probably you know, the engine of the NBA,
maybe Patrick Mahomes, the NFL, probably either Judge or show Hey, MLB,
so on and so forth. But if show Hay didn't
play an MLB All Star game, you know what, ticket
prices weren't gonna drop forty eight percent?
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Rob nothing right, same thing if Judge wasn't there.
Speaker 6 (28:24):
If Judges wasn't there, they wouldn't drop Lebron James remember
said no, I'm not playing the night before or whatever.
Guess what tickets would have still been priced what they
were if Steph Curry said I'm not playing this year,
that is a ridiculous. If she ever needed a gauge
a metric, that's insane. One star is out and they
drop almost fifty percent of the place.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
This is what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
If I'm the WNBA, she's not releasing that news and
we're not knowing that she's not gonna play until everybody's
arrived in any of that place. I'm just telling you
you are not gonna know, and you'll find out when
you get to it. She's starting a game, she's a
game time decision. She's not gonna played a three point shot, right,
(29:07):
so we could do that. But she's a game because
she's there. She's supposed to be gonna be there anyway,
so she's a game time decision. She's gonna try to
give it a go. And then people love still buying tickets.
They're still hoping that they're going to that it's gonna
be cool, you know what I mean, and she might
play or whatever there. I would have been sick if
(29:28):
I was a commissioner and I found out that this
was announced.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
We gotta figure out something like, hey, hey, still buy
tickets and she'll give you an autograph and a picture. Something
we're gonna have to do like Chris Brown does that
on his tour. You can come to the concert, but
you can pay another thousand dollars and he has these
ladies will come up there and he'll take a picture,
and literally.
Speaker 5 (29:47):
Rley does whatever they ask.
Speaker 6 (29:48):
So if they're like, you know, squeeze my cheeks and
I don't mean the ones on her face still squeeze,
seeke pick me up?
Speaker 5 (29:54):
He picks them up.
Speaker 6 (29:55):
But he's getting extra money because they're paying a thousand
dollars for a quick meet and Greek for a picture
and then it's the AWNBA.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Hey you get to get.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
A pick with Caitlin in autograph basketball if you still
come by these tickets or something, because that's incredible. And again,
that's a great metric for her team, her agent, her investors,
her whole you know, financial folks around her to say,
we know what we're worth because because think about again,
if Asia Wilson's the best player in the NBA at WNBA,
that's not even debatable.
Speaker 5 (30:23):
She goes out them tickets ain't dropping like that.
Speaker 6 (30:25):
Breonna Stewart goes out them, tickets ain't dropping like that.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
That's a big drop. That's our big drop.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
And rob Patrick Mahomes doesn't play in the Pro Bowl.
Patrick Mahomes doesn't play in the game. The NFL can't
drop it fifty percent. They might cut it five.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
But this is what I was saying, and the reason
I even came up with the whole idea of canceling
everything is it centers around her.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Where's where's the game.
Speaker 5 (30:49):
Of this series? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Exactly right, Yeah, I mean the whole thing was centered
around her, and for her not to be able to
participate is a bummer for the whole and for everybody
everybody else can say, well, there are other stars and
it's not just about her, and that sounds good.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
I'll tell you about the ratings.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
If you're ABC and you're showing that game Saturday night
at eight thirty, are you kidding? They'd rather the right
now at ABC, they're thinking, should we put on the
Ten Commandments of Ben Hur?
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Now?
Speaker 5 (31:20):
That one was funny. I'll give you that. That was funny.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
I mean, what won't you we do that, like, we'll
probably get better ratings for Ben Hur, not not.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Shane's shaking his head. Shane, what are you shaking your
head for? What? Ben her? Oh?
Speaker 5 (31:34):
Okay, y'all gott to relax. Y'all not gonna make it six.
Speaker 13 (31:37):
Years, guys, I'm not even full time yet. Please, I'm
trying to make it.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
I got it. You guys have been here for a while.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
Listen, here's the thing. This is what I said the
other day.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
Rob.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
If you're the WNBA, you're gonna have to do like this.
You're gonna have to say, we know the viewership's gonna
be down, and we know obviously the price is gone
down forty eight.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
Percent, but what they have to master moving forward?
Speaker 6 (31:58):
To me, this was sometimes got to throw you something
you didn't expect, and even in a tough situation, so
you gotta go all right, this was an ideal, But
we have to figure out a way to market our stars.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Right.
Speaker 6 (32:09):
She can't just be the sun in our solar system
and everything goes around her. We have to find ways
to big up Asia, Sabrina, Brianna, Kelsey, Mitchell, whoever else
you want to big up, because this can't be the
case that we only go.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
As Kaitlin Clark. No other business is like that except golf.
Golf was like that.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
They're the tiger Woods there. If Tiger ain't playing well, danked,
wasn't nobody watching. That's what it is. She is a
tiger wooded phenomenon like that where one person can change
the fluctuate and you know the influx of viewers and
prices and all that. That's insane. That's a compliment to her,
without a doubt. All right, shekel city on the way and.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
No, we got games tonight. Baseball is back. We had
no games the last two nights or in the WNBA,
So respectful.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
I don't bet on the w A. I'm not come on,
I'm not.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
I'm being honest, I'm gonna give you WNBA's I mean.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Rob, why do I have season tickets to Sparks on
my car? I know season tickets? What happened? They know
what's going on.
Speaker 5 (33:07):

What is all that? They're so far away, They're in
a truck. They can't hear him.
Speaker 5 (35:50):
They're so far away, and it makes me laugh.

They're like, you know, it's and I'm not saying you
gotta be loud as if it's a you know, some you'
not have to be it's.
Speaker 5 (35:58):
A basketball game, Kevin Harlan or anything. I get. I

Speaker 13 (36:04):
I got something. It's a three day event, it's a
four or five hour event. They're talking for a long time.
They're saving their voice. You know, I feel like you

be logical about it, we can.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Say that if somebody makes an incredible shot. Or why
wouldn't you scream I'll go crazy.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Go crazy, folks, go crazy.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
That was a hole in one, go.

a CEO at a Coldplay concert. Put him on the Megatron.
They found out he was having an affair with the
lady that he works with. Where to help me out here?
Speaker 6 (37:02):
I was telling you this, Alex. The only thought because
obviously this is blown up, is going crazy. We talked
a little bit about it yesterday. The only thing I'll
add to this is I want to say this now
on record for you, Rob Alex, yourself, Alex Shay Steve.
Remember I said this, They're gonna get a Netflix show
out of this. It's so this they've blown up too
big that now.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
That's the only plot though we already know that the
plot loot.
Speaker 6 (37:27):
The plot is going to be I think everybody, you're no,
it's gonna be what it's going to be, the precursor,
what led to it, and then it's gonna be how
we live through this trauma.
Speaker 5 (37:37):
We were trauma people. It's gonna be.
Speaker 6 (37:42):
No, it's gonna be a reality to show how they
moved forward.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
I don't that's a billionaire. He's gonna move to Italy.
No one's ever going to see him again.
Speaker 10 (37:50):
Oh, you don't know the American way, are you right?
Speaker 6 (37:54):
This is the American way. They're absolutely gonna cash. You
know what, rich people like Shay more money than You're right,
absolutely cashing. Somebody's gonna come give them a bunch of
money to do nothing.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Alex, did you see the Sports center anchors we we

Speaker 1 (38:08):
Did you see? That's actually fine?
Speaker 5 (38:10):
I didn't see that.
Speaker 1 (38:11):
Yeah, the AM Sports ESPN guys.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
At like four o'clock in the morning, two guys do
the same exact thing with they're cuddling like they're doing

on them.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
You didn't see that a sports I didn't see that.
You saw it you wild.
Speaker 9 (38:26):
I think that's what the actual singer the cole Play
literally said, Oh they're either having.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Chris Martin call.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
But you know why because of the way that they react.
If you were a couple, right and this was cold
you wouldn't have been able. You wouldn't be doing that.
You wouldn't have been hiding and acting like, oh my god.
Speaker 5 (38:43):
We got calling.
Speaker 6 (38:44):
You've said in months, Rob Parker, better than any take, because.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
You know your takes don't be it.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
It was go ask YouTube.
Speaker 5 (38:53):
You said he should have gave it a Heimlich. That
was funny. That's what I would have done, Like that's

Play it off, do something that man duck like my
daughter when I say, who hate the cookies?
Speaker 9 (39:07):
Robbie know it's crazy you you're a billionaire. This guy Ryan,
how are you somebody at work?
Speaker 3 (39:14):
Really?
Speaker 1 (39:15):
And not only that, but you'll know you're out in public,
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
If no one's going to see you or her, I mean,
you don't know who's going to the concert.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
Do you have the do you have the guest list
for the Coldplay concert? Kelvin? Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (39:28):
Like you know it could be your next door neighbor,
it could be your pastor or somebody from the church.
I'm just saying, like, how in the world could you
do that? Thinking too thinking no one's going to see you.
You're not in a private hotel room.
Speaker 5 (39:44):
Tell us how it goes again?
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Right, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (39:45):
When she pulls up first and okay, okay, and then
he got shy out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
No, then you wring the phone and there you okay, okay,
all right, you're.
Speaker 5 (39:56):
