York right, little chili out here, and it was wet raining,
like to buy a hat.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Look at my Maryland turping hat, the turps you see it?
Speaker 5 (01:43):
Yeah? Why why?
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Because that was what was available, that was on the
clearance rack.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I always remember every time I'm buying something, if you
see me wearing I'm not sporting it because I love Maryland.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Okay, Well that's we know that. That's why I was like,
that's an interesting choice.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
In New York to Maryland terps hat was on clearance. Okay,
so this hat down in Maryland probably cost you fifteen dollars.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I paid a dollar nine and nine, but I need
you that hat a dollar ninety nine or yeat in
your mind. Let me tell you something, Rob Parker. You
know I ain't bringing it back for this hat in
New York. See gonna be like, what is this a
chasting trash?
Speaker 5 (02:26):
You're gonna throw it away? But I'll tell you what
if nothing else.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I was just having this conversation with somebody and they
were I don't know, somehow you came up and I
was explaining to them. I said, no, no, no, no, no
no no. Yeah, you like a deal. No one likes
a deal more than Rod Parker. No no, no, I said, no, no, no,
you don't understand. No one likes the deal more than
Rod Parker. Uh so, yeah, you one ninety nine four
hat I'm not mad at that. Well, let's talk about
(02:50):
speaking of money. A team that spent way too much
money on somebody. That would be Deshaun Watson and the
Cleveland Browns, and you know you recently had ownership come
out and say, yeah, we might have messed that up.
We might have over you know, dug ourselves in a hole,
bringing him in and put all our eggs in his
basket and it didn't work.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Now we got to dig ourselves out of this hole.
That's what they said.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
With Deshaun Watson, feelings like he has some comeback fuel.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Ryan breaking a little bit down what DeShawn was doing recently.
Speaker 6 (03:17):
Yeah, So this week Deshaun posted a video on Instagram
and there's some music going on in the background. It's
a montage of him working out at the gym, But
during the video, he says, quote, everyone's doubting me. Everyone
don't believe in me. Everyone don't think that I can
get back to where I was. But I know and
I believe the work that I put in, what I
believe in myself, the piece that I've been dealing that
(03:40):
I've been channeling these last couple of months. I know
I'm going to be way better than before.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
So how come ahead that happened? I mean, like, this
is my issue.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
It sounds good, right, And if you got to use
other people to motivate you or that's the reason that
you're gonna play better, I just question it, Like that
shouldn't be the reason they're always gonna be. I don't
care how good you are, right, detractors people who are.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Who doubt you.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Do you know how many people I'm been talking about,
great players, right, who have been doubted their whole careers.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
And you shouldn't have.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
To be motivated by other people because they've watched you
the last few years and you haven't been good, Okay,
Like are they are they saying, oh, he's a fourteenth
going to the Pro Bowl, or it was all Pro
four years in a row, and I still think he's bad.
Is that what they're saying, or they watching you and
your stats and your play and saying this ain't the
(04:41):
guy who was in Houston. He's no good any longer.
I don't it sounds good, Kelvin. Do you use other
people to motivate you? I mean I wouldn't say other people.
I would say scenarios because I'm actually one of the people.
We've talked about this before it I'll give you a
real world example. Some people would go, and this is
(05:01):
your guy. They'll go, Man.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Stephen A Smith. They worth for one hundred million, Man,
Man Wall he doesn't talk with you. I'm the guy
who goes great because he first off, great for him. Secondly,
he just set the bar to me of what is possible.
You get what I mean. So that inspires me. I go,
all right, bet that means that money's out there for
those who us, who do what we do for a living.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
So I get excited about that.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
And also I'm fully aware of what's for me is
for me. I strongly believe that, so I believe there's
more room out there. It doesn't have to be this
one person, you know, blah blah blah, like he got that.
I can't get that. So I don't mind if you
get a little fuel somebody doubt you. Yeah, whatever you
need to get to put a little fuel in your tank.
I understand that. But also you got to deal with reality.
And let's talk a little bit about reality.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Well, but that's that's my point because if that's the case,
then you wouldn't be bad. No one would be bad.
Then if people talking bad, do you understand what I'm saying? Right, No,
nobody would be bad. But that's not the case because
you could say I want to use fuel. We talk
about it all the time. Oh there is bulletin board material.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Oh, there it is.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
You shouldn't have said that about that other team, right, Oh,
it's gonna come back to you know me times the
other team where he said something and and the guy
was right and they won, and nobody went back to say,
you gave them bullet board material only only only once
in a while when it when it backfires. But but
when it doesn't backfire, nobody ever goes write the story.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Am I right?
Speaker 4 (06:28):
And said right?
Speaker 5 (06:29):
Never?
Speaker 7 (06:31):
Not?
Speaker 5 (06:31):
Zero?
Speaker 4 (06:32):
I've never seen that.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
No, you're right, So to me, Deshaun Watson, here's what
you need to do first and foremost. I do think
he's struggling with a little bit of the maybe he'll
get over this next season, But I do think for
the last couple of years Rob obviously there's been injuries,
Obviously there was an eleven game suspension, but I think
he's also struggling with the tiger woods of it all,
(06:55):
the shame of it all, the you know, the you
were superman, literally that's what they were calling him, and
he was right. He was superman. He was this MVP candidate,
was doing it all. The offensive line was terrible, was
running for his life, but he was still putting them
crazy numbers.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
He was doing it all.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
And I think there's an element of the mental aspect
where you feel exposed, you feel seen, you feel shamed,
you feel embarrassed, and you know this, You've been covering
sports for so long. Listen, all of those pros can play.
I don't care what sport, I don't care what position.
That's why they're pros. There's so few in the world
that can do this. But what makes the from solid
to good, from good to great is the consistency. Right,
(07:30):
every guy in the NBA can score forty out the
blue but who can give me twenty six points at night?
Speaker 5 (07:35):
Right, that's the consistency.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
That makes you a really good player at All Star
and Deshaun, some of that is just that little bit
of edge. Some of that is that little bit of
locked in. Some of that is that little bit of
extra confidence or mojo you have, and if that's rocked
or shaken, then I think sometimes you can lose your way,
lose your step. And if the whole world heard about
some freaky stuff allegedly you got to settle out. Of course,
some wild stuff things are going on, issues at home.
(08:00):
That stuff can rock you and affect you, right, because
it's that little bit of thing. Maybe you're not focusing
on the film, little bit of damn attention, I'm not
paying there.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
So I think that played a role in his poor performance.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Obviously, now you're injured, that does not help as well,
But he's also just been struggling. Simply thirty four percent
QBR is crazy, right, nine and ten in the games
that he's played over the last few which is limited games.
Nineteen touchdowns, twelve interceptions not great as well. So I
think sometimes it's okay to say in this season, in
my life, I have to just shut up, improve it silently.
(08:32):
And I think that's okay. And we're all going to
go through that in life at some point, whether it
be in your family, whether it be in your work,
whether it be to yourself, or you can go away.
I gotta silently, go away, shut up and do what
I have to do and silence the critics, silence them
literally while doing it silently, and let the play be
the proof. And so I think that's what he, you know,
I would propose for him, like, just go do the work,
(08:54):
because dude, even if people aren't trying to hate on
you or doubt you, they're literally saying, dude, you've been injured,
you haven't played well. It's not that I'm trying to
pick on you, let alone the personal stuff, the off
the field stuff.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
You've just been injured, you haven't played good.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
So there are some people could just not even be
trying to bring up the past and just say I
haven't seen you play well. And so he has to
go out there and do it and prove it. And
to me, lastly, and if we talked about this a
little bit with joh, I brought it up of how
sometimes you gotta just say I brought this on myself,
you know, the issues, the the you know the drama
(09:26):
I built off the field, and I kind of got
to own this and know that this is a part
of my showing contrition and changing my life. And I
always like to bring up Michael Vick as a perfect
example of that. So that's what I would be proposing.
I just think, at this point, why do you even
have to bring that up? Just just go out and play. Well,
(09:47):
that's it.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
That's the only thing that anybody's gonna care about, not
that you proclaim you're using this fuel of the negativity
and the haters and the doubters. So so can I
go back, can go to a Browns game when the
Browns are zero and six and he's played poorly and ask, uh,
how did that fuel go with the haters and the doubters?
(10:11):
Did that help you at all? I would be considered
a what if I went and asked that question after
he said that's what he was gonna use? I just
I just you go out and you play better. And
then when they ask you what happened, what happened from
last year to this year? You know what happened? I
tightened up some things. I worked harder. I went into
(10:34):
my inner strength and went back to the simple things
that I used to do when I was in Houston
and I was one of the best quarterbacks in the league.
That's the story people want to hear.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Right, Listen, one thing we know, winning cares on and
if he went out there all of a sudden, you know,
who knows what they're gonna do this this season and
as far as draft and what they're gonna do quarterback.
But if he ends up being a starter at some
point and he's out there and he's playing, and let's
say he just even plays eight games because we know
he's dealing with injury, he plays that game, he goes
six and two with you know, fifteen touchdowns and three interceptions. Hey,
(11:08):
Browns fans are gonna be like, you know what, we
all need a second chance, we all need forgive this.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
You know what, I'm loving what the Shawn is doing.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
So go out there, perform play well man, and just
and just shut up and do it in silence, you
know what I mean, And just go do what you
gotta do. Because once he plays better, people forget. That's
one thing I've learned about the NFL. Don't matter what
you do. So drugs did drugs physically? You know, I'm
not promoting this, but people have been physical women. Dante Starwarth,
you know, he's obviously you know he's a tone for it.
(11:36):
But kill someone drug driving. As long as you don't kneel,
stand up for a cause, Colin Kaepernick, anything else is
acceptable in the NFL.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
We already know that. That's always been the hypocrisy of
the NFL.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
That's the one thing you can't do is go kneel
for a cause. Anything else you can be redeemed. It
is pretty much amazing. But this will be interesting. I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Maybe he's right, maybe that's what you need, and maybe
other people are the same way. I just I don't
work on that. I really don't. And I don't expect
everybody to like me. I don't expect everybody to think
I'm the best radio guy, best TV guy, best writer.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
That that just doesn't.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
I do what I do, and I perform, and I
work at my craft, and I work hard every day
at it, and they're great days, some bad days, you
know what I mean. But I'm happy with and I
don't need to justify anything to anybody, matter of fact,
I just got a tweet from somebody with saying, oh
you know, and and the thing that's funny is, you know,
(12:43):
people think because they disagree with your opinion or something
like I'm negative or whatever.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
It's not that.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I'm just my opinion doesn't line up with yours. Do
you understand what I'm saying? That doesn't make it negative.
I'm just I just have a different opinion than you,
so and it's fine. I'm cool with it. I'm not
in this for a personality or popularity contest. But in
Deshawn's case, it ain't the only way you're gonna win
(13:15):
public opinion is to play better, is to return to
what you used to be or closer to that. He's
been awful. Can we say that for the for the
for the owner talking about negative negativity or the haters
or the doubters. The owner said, we swung in miss
big time. I mean, what mind you? He's still on
(13:36):
the team.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
It ain't like he was where They're like, you know,
we made a mistake with a guy who's no longer here.
They're like, hey, we made a mistake, and that we're
staring at the mistake in her eye right now, and
we're still paying this. I think he's still I think
it's forty three million this coming year. And it's like
so it's like still a buck what is it a
buck thirty or something? Still buck seventy old or something? Crazy? Man,
it's still old for this sound.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
That's you know, if I'm the Cleveland Browns, I'd have
to burn down my restaurant and collect the insurance.
Speaker 8 (14:03):
Mondy.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
I'm just saying, yeah, the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
All right, they still got brown underwear for this one.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
Oh, you ain't lying.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
They gonna be like, all right, are they yellow in
the front and brown in the back?
Speaker 5 (14:13):
A Cleveland yellow and browns? Oh Man, all right?
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Eight se seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven, seven

Speaker 3 (14:26):
You like his strategy? Uh, fuel by the haters and
the dowter ors. Is that gonna get his season turned around?

or you pooh pooh it like I do.

Let's go out to Vegas with Joe. Joe, you're on
with the Acab of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (16:05):
Well, thanks much for taking my call, and I'm not
buying one thing.
Speaker 8 (16:10):
That's okay, you.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
Know, unless baby oil right, because.
Speaker 7 (16:19):
You know, when Deshaun Watson was on top of the world,
playing great, he didn't need no whole bunch of negativity.
Speaker 8 (16:25):
Thank you, that great, But when he brought all this
upon himself, all this negativity because of how he was acting.
Speaker 7 (16:34):
Now he doesn't have any choice because now he's brought
all this on him and he hasn't changed his ways internally,
so his performance is lousy. So he's trying to sell
hisself that he.
Speaker 10 (16:45):
Gonna use this negativity to improve his performance. But at
the end of the day, I don't think he's gonna
play any better than he's been for him and you know,
he's cashed in on this contract, but he won't be
cashing in on another one.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
You better believe that, no doubt, Well said spot on,
I'm with you, Come.
Speaker 5 (17:03):
On all right. We appreciate you, Joe.

How you boys doing it?
Speaker 4 (17:14):
We're good?
Speaker 8 (17:16):
All right? So listen Dashaun Watson Man. The way I
see this guy, he's like that dead beat cousin that
barely makes it to the family gathering. You know, at
this point, you got everybody against you. Just just be
you know, be serviceable man, you know, be a game manager.
Don't turn the ball over. Make something happen. Maybe just
(17:39):
maybe we forget about everything that you did. You know,
it'll be tough to forget. You're always gonna carry that
with you. But you know it's Cleveland. Two playoff wins,
one playoff win. Look at Baker Man. We all love Baker.
He turned it around. Maybe maybe then. I'm not saying
he's gonna turn it around the way Baker is, because.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
All I'm saying is is do you really need to
use somebody else? Is negativity? To play better? Is all
I'm saying. Instead of worrying about that, just play better.
I mean to come up with some stuff. Thank you,

good years, and then he had the problem with Houston

it'll find his way after this pension and he got
paid and stopped working. It's basically what it is. And
then you know, you can say the injuries and this

Yeah, which you ain't working. The NFL everybody, like you said,
everybody's your pro athlete. Everybody's there, and if you ain't working,
it's like what Vince Young said back in the day,
he didn't need to study in Texas because he was
the best athlete on the field. Well, there's thirty two
best athletes, you know what I mean in the field
(19:44):
in quarterback. And if you ain't working, guess what, they
ain't gonna sit back and say, oh, we're gonna let
you burn us for you know, three hundred yards a game.

his money and stopped working. Then they say this, Then
they say his eyes, you've.

understand that, right people, Dude, people right now ain't thinking

You be a real judge here, Okay, And I'm not Ryan.
This is like personal math. I'm not texting him about

Speaker 9 (22:43):
I was just asking me about my weekend plan.
Speaker 5 (22:44):
About his weekend to you right now, Ryan, what's going
on to New York?
Speaker 1 (22:49):
But he's got a laptop and ipaded a phone all

I just wanted to know if Alix was gonna watch
this here.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
It's Saturday.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
That's all good, I'm thinking about it.
Speaker 6 (23:02):
Well, I'm glad you need to know that right this
moment and not after this game. Oh but that's okay.
How this game works is Robin Kelvin are going to
be going back and forth. I will give a statement
to fill in the blank.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
Statement.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
Uh, you the listener probably know the answer to this
statement because you are listening to sports talk. You know,
Sports Alex is going to try to guess what the
blank is and Robin Kelvin are going to give him
one word clues to help him find out what that
blank is. So the theme today, of course, the Masters
have begun. So today we're talking about the Masters. And
(23:40):
you know we had Rob go.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
First last week.
Speaker 6 (23:43):

first this week.

Would you see.

I mean, Ryan, you know I entrusted you with my podcast,
and this is the thanks. I guess it's like, you know,

out there in bronosaurs ribs in New York.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Let's do it now.
Speaker 6 (24:08):

paying attention, because this first question or this first statement
could be answered if he has been listening to the updates.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
Yeah all the time.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
All right, okay about that.
Speaker 6 (24:20):

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh Texas, you are the last came on this odd
couple of this TV things on Thursday. Trade What you
got up, man?
Speaker 12 (34:23):
Yeah, a couple of goofball man.
Speaker 8 (34:29):
No, but I wanted to talk to that.
Speaker 9 (34:30):
I didn't get on the second earlier about uh, who
was to blame?
Speaker 8 (34:34):
As far as Luca getting traded. Yes, I honestly still
think it's.
Speaker 11 (34:37):
The owners in the gym, man.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
I mean, you.
Speaker 8 (34:40):
Can't trade it once in a life of a decade player.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Less you can if you don't believe in him or
you you think that you can't give that guy three
hundred and fifty million dollars, Yes you can, that's why
they did it.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
I don't know, man, I don't believe in.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
That because it wasn't it wasn't basketball related. Can you
at least ignow knowledge that nobody in their right mind? Okay,
that's what I'm trying to say to you can't play.
Speaker 8 (35:07):
Did you ever Rob? Did you ever get the source
as far as about what actually did just happen?
Speaker 5 (35:13):
No?
Speaker 1 (35:14):
I mean I've talked to people, but I don't have
any definitive stuff that I can tell you, you know what
I mean, on the radio or whatever, or any kind
of original reporting. I mean, but this is something, uh
that you probably won't hear about for a while or something.
But yeah, we all gonna have to wait till the
documentary comes out. But I will tell you this, uh
tray shout out to trade thanks for the call. I
(35:35):
still believe it comes down the money to me more
than the other stuff. Because if let's just say, for
whatever reason, he already signed a max deal the year
before this new ownership comes or something like that, then
I think they would be all right those things that
we might be. If it's alcohol, if its hookah, if
it's hanging out, they would have stuck with that. I
think this new group just didn't want to pay the man.
They's just like, I don't want to pay them.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
But you can't.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
You can't say that they just didn't want to pay
him for No, I I don't buy that.
Speaker 5 (36:01):
I think that's just what I felt.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
I feel like they didn't want to because again, if
the money was already there, and if it was just
down to the issues, I feel like they would have
been like, all right, well what is he doing right
now putting up how much a game? We might get
to the final? We'll be all right with those issues.
And we see that in sports all the time. Well,
you know, oftentimes teams all right with it as long
as you're performing well. Talent will kind of mask some
(36:23):
other things a lot of times. So but uh, we'll
have to wait and see. And as I just said, man,
there's gonna be some book some documentary or some behind
the you know, we'll finally get the exclusive of what
really happened.
Speaker 5 (36:36):
But it was. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
Going back to his return, I mean, we've seen a
lot of returns. We've seen guys get you know, a
little emotion, a little into it and wave to the
fans and really really gracious he was for like really
going through the emotions. I mean the crime before he
even got up, stood up and just.
Speaker 4 (36:51):
See the Academy Award goes to.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
Call that man Luca Washington, Denzel's non you gotta stop it.
I can't wait, Alex, What do you think is going
to be? That makes Rob cry? What do you think
is would be? Probably his retirement?
Speaker 5 (37:05):
Retirement? Right, absolutely, that's the case.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
If that's the case, we're never gonna get tears in
because he ain't retired.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
Alice, he doesn't know me yet. Tell when it's done,
to do something that is done.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
I'll give you that.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
I will give you that, because he ain't even eating
nothing but baked chicken and lunch beat.
Speaker 4 (37:22):
