Speaker 1 (00:04):
Welcome to Good Calls with Dean Blandino, a production of
I Heart Radio. Hey, what's up? Dean Blandino. Welcome to
another episode of Good Calls with Me and Blandino. Today,
as always, Travis Hansen sitting in his backyard, his beautiful
(00:25):
backyard that I've yet to see, Travis, what's up? What's
up here? Man? Can see you not much, Joe, what's
your what's what? What's your background there? It's from the
office and you're at all you're a big office guy. Yeah,
oh you you office guy? For you office guy? Is
that remember? That's where they go. Yeah, this is where
(00:51):
they go and they have they're just talk in front
of the camera, you know, got it. And then and
we've got a friend of the show joining us. Been
on the show before, Scott Tamil. Scott, your background is
much more interesting that that, I believe is the Cisco
video for the Thong song? Is that correct? That is?
(01:12):
That is right? I respect Cisco, I respect his music abilities,
and he's uh, how he brought the thong song back,
how he brought thongs into the mainstream, into the mainstream,
and everybody then started talking about thongs and um for
those of you that don't know this is that this
is the four of us are basically in this Fox
(01:33):
Sports studio. Um pretty much it feels like it feels
like or together a lot during football season where they're
Friday night, all day Saturday, all day Sunday. And this
is this is the dream team. So when you see
me on the air giving some some amazing rules analysis,
this is the team behind me. This these are the
(01:55):
guys behind the guy, and I wouldn't be able to
do my job. I still would be able to do
my job, but it just wouldn't be It's fun. They
they make they make it enjoyable. We have we have
a lot of conversations and we talked about a lot
of things, and so we're gonna jump right into it today.
And uh and obviously look we're not you know, we
(02:16):
don't deal with politics on this show and stuff. But
there's stuff happening in the country right now that you know,
I don't know if in my lifetime and I'm the oldest,
if if I've experienced, um, you know, a combination of
things like this all at once in this country. You
(02:36):
think about the pandemic COVID nineteen and now what what's
happening with the protests obviously stemming from the death and
I'm not look it was a murder on video of
of George Floyd in Minneapolis. UM in terms of you know,
a no on black man getting getting killed by the
(02:57):
police and the protests and the rioting and everything else.
What the hell is going on right now? Like what
what Scott? You're from, You're from Minnesota, You're from what's
happening in Minneapolis? Obviously we see these images around the country.
What's going off? Well, I will you know right away say, um, yeah,
(03:20):
a lot of my friends. I went to school at
the University of Minnesota, so a lot of my friends.
I still have a lot of friends, a lot of
family in the Twin Cities. They live a good number
of them that I've been in touch with the last
few days. They live, you know, a lot of for
lack of better term, where the action is is like
(03:41):
off of Lake Street, which is like a main through
street through most of Minneapolis, and uh, you know they
live like, you know, one block away, two blocks away.
Obviously people probably saw the third Precinct was burned down
and then the the fifth Precinct was a center point
for UM demonstrations on like the following days. And I
(04:06):
have a friend who you know, he just had a kid.
He lived like a block or two away from the
fifth Precincts. So they were like, hey, you know, it's
like they weren't necessarily afraid. Uh. They weren't afraid that
like their house is gonna get burned down or anything,
but that they just were like, you know, if we
need to go because something with the baby, we can't
get trapped here because if there's people in the street
(04:29):
or or if there is a curfew, you know, and
we're not allowed to leave, you know. So uh, you know,
it's been a scary time. Look I get it, and
I get the messaging. I get the exchange of ideas
on social media. I'm really not one for. I don't
I don't like, you know, being a social media activist
and posting something because everybody's posting it and then going
(04:50):
about my business and not really caring. Just I've made
that statement on social media and I've seen, you know,
people doing that. And so one video, this this this
young girl jumps out of her car and this guy
was was boarding up the building whatever business he he had,
he was boarding it up. And she asked him if
he could, if she could take a picture with the
(05:12):
drill like she was doing it, and her friend took
a picture and they were going to post that on Instagram,
like we're helping rebuild the community. And that that bothers me.
But I think the bigger question, and you see this
a lot. There's a lot of people out there. There's
a lot of white people. Look, they're three of us here,
we're white, and we're questioning, Okay, what how can we help?
(05:33):
Like what do we do? Like I see a lot
of white people asking that, and I see a lot
of a lot of black people giving advice on social media.
And I've seen watched a lot of videos and it's like, look,
because the bottom line is this will calm down and
then I'm gonna go I'm gonna go on about my business.
I'm still gonna be white, right, So, so how do
we affect change? Because this has been going on right
(05:56):
for a very long time, and and and we are
talking about you think of names like Emmett Till and
and then I'm gonna Diallo and Eric Garner and Trayvon
Martin and and and George Floyd. I mean this isn't
a new thing, and so is this Is this the
tipping point where we're finally gonna say, we're finally gonna
(06:17):
gonna you know, affect that change in how do we
do it? Like I've listened to a lot of people,
I understand in terms of we've got to we've got
to vote, we've got to get the right people in office.
We've got to we've got to protest, we've got to
petition our local governments and and and affect this change
at the local level and at the state level. Um,
I just you know, it's so hard, it's so it's just,
(06:40):
you know, it's so crazy to think about what's going on.
Um in the middle of a pandemic. It's almost as
if people have kind of not forgotten, but it's kind
of been pushed on the back burner in terms of
COVID with everybody out and the social distancing and we're
all together. Um, it just it just feels surreal at times. Yeah,
(07:02):
as you're watching the news. I was watching the news
last night and Dr Drew's on there saying, are we
going to see a spike now in the in the COVID?
And you hope we don't because these people are out
doing these demonstrations and all the peaceful protests are great,
and and it's sad to see what's lost with the
looters and in them bringing their their their actions into
it and completely going against what the protesters are doing.
(07:25):
And that that's what's sad to me. So so it's
it's interesting to see if we will see a spike
in the COVID and you hope not. Well, the thing
is about, right, the looters. So I live in Santa
Monica World in l A and and someday there was
there was protests in Santa Monica. I live. You guys
have been here. I live, right, I live a couple
of blocks from the beach and a block from the promenade.
(07:46):
The promenade was a key a key point, and there
were there were people looting, and there were people peacefully protesting,
and and so I was out on my balcony just
kind of you know, Sunday evening, sitting out just why
to what was going on. And there were kids, you know, black, white, Hispanic,
you know, all races running past with you know, boxes
(08:09):
of Nike shoes. You know, so maybe the Nike store
got broken into. I haven't been down there that far,
but you know, running by. And then so I kind of,
you know, you watched this happen, you know, in front
of you, and this is the reality of it. And
I went back inside and uh. And then maybe about here,
the lady upstairs from me, um, I live in a
in a you know, in a condo, and the lady
(08:30):
upstairs for me yelling um something. And she has this
nice Hispanic lady that lives above me, and she's yelling
across the street and I can't make out what she's saying.
So I go out and she's yelling at these kids,
and she's saying, go get away from there. I'm gonna
report you. And they had broken into the restaurant across
the street from me, broken the glass glass doors, and
we're in the restaurant. Um, they kind of reacted to her.
(08:53):
They got out of there, they started walking. Their car
was parked right across the street from my building, and
I just went out there and I was looking to
see what was going on, and the one kid was
yelling up at the lady saw me and started yelling
at me. And you know, you know, white people, you
don't know what we go through. And I started to
have a conversation. I tried to say, hey, what are
you guys doing, you know, just to to get get
(09:16):
his thoughts, like what what's happening. Let's talk about this,
like trying to have a conversation, and he started to
open up. Look, I'm angry. I live in the hood.
I come here, I see how you people live. And
it was very like, you know, it makes me. You know,
he was upset and his friends were upset, and so
we're having this conversation and then this other car pulls
(09:36):
up and this guy gets out and I don't know
how he knew we were having a conversation and we're
yelling because he was far away. He just gets out
and looks up and he's like, go back in your house,
F you white person, you f and fascist. And I'm
just like whoa, Like where what is that about. I
was like like, look, no one's talking to you. We're
(09:57):
having a conversation. But I get it, like I get
the anger, I get the frustration. And you can't say,
look when you talk about the violence that erupts when
people are angry and frustrated, think about your own life.
Right emotions Sometimes don't know what they're doing right. Emotions,
don't don't don't don't understand their actions when you're emotional,
(10:19):
as you react, you see people whether it's grief or anger,
and and so you're talking about with the black community, right,
this is hundreds and hundreds of years right of of
of built up frustration and as and you can't just
say this is the thing, Like you can't just say, okay, right,
we're gonna we're end slavery eighteen sixty five Man Space
(10:41):
and proclamation. You're all free, all right, or in the
nineteen sixties the civil rights movement, now you have, you have,
you have the full rights of all Americans. Okay, go
be free. Go like they're starting like we as a
white person, we have a headstart. Well it's a really
it's a reality. I think you're um just to make
(11:02):
sure things are framed in the car, like is that
you know you mentioned there's like famous or infamous incidents,
whether it is this most recent one or you know,
Trey Bonmartness. And it's like when you see this as
a single entity incident, it sticks out for it. It's
(11:24):
like that's how a lot of people consume it. It's like, oh,
this tragic story here, this tragic story here. But to
hear you know, friends of mine speak about this as well,
is that it's like this isn't just a single one.
So this like with um with Floyd, like it's this
(11:45):
is just stacking another on a long legacy, a historical legacy.
And then when it comes to people talking about like
the like if you're trying to delineate between who are
the right protests or is who are the ones who
are looting? Who are like just the thing that I
(12:05):
think we bring up COVID, dude, this is something that
I do think is forgotten a little bit, is that
as we see uh COVID play out over the last
couple of months, the burden of that who are are
you know, who are the burden of who has to
be out like who can't work from home? Is is
(12:28):
lowering some people because they're working those jobs that are
deemed necessary to keep the economy rolling. And I think
the interesting thing about some of these protests are that
they are taking place now in the past, like we're
talking historically, whether it's the n l A Riots, whether
(12:48):
it's well when we're talking about l A, the Watch riots,
but also or also with like um. After MLK Jr.
Was assassinated, there were uh there were it's there were
protests all over America. They were largely contained to areas
that African Americans were allowed to live in. UH. And
(13:09):
and now what you're seeing is, you know, it's in UH,
It's it's in Soho. There are in there in They're
in Santa Monica and they're Beverly Hills. And I think
part of that not too uh confuse these issues, but
it is kind of a culmination of UH. Like you know, UH,
(13:34):
like a pressure building and when it's hops, when it blows.
In this instance, there's more griefences than a narrow issue,
and it always is, but like you see it now.
And I think that's also why people UH in general
are responding a little differently, because I do know because
(13:55):
I had relatives who live in West l A. During
the riots the n l A rights, It's like there
was a very conscious effort by this city to be like, yes,
this is in south Central, Yes this is in k Town,
but we are not letting them march into bevery else.
Yeah we are. It's like we are not letting this
(14:16):
gate west of the four oh five. And now because
these things are happening. I think there's a different urgency,
unfortunate or not not that like when it's in power
broker's backyards, it's a little scarier for them. Then they're
not just like, hey, it's over here. You're making people uncomfortable,
and that's what has to happen. We have to have
(14:38):
uncomfortable totalizations, we have to have uncomfortable situations. And this
is bigger. This is not about I named a couple
of names. This is bigger than those instances because this
is about systemic racism. This is about discrimination that happens.
We don't I don't know what it's like. I'm not black,
I don't know what it's like. I can live my
(15:01):
life unconsciously throughout the day, Right, I can walk into
a store and not have to think about I'm gonna
be approached differently, I'm gonna be looked at differently. Right,
you that I hate? I hate. We have these words,
and we have these very right White privilege, right, Well,
everybody throws around white privilege, and everybody argues the debate
about what is white privilege and all this stuff. People
(15:22):
get offended. White people say, well, I'm not privileged. I
worked I worked it for everything that I have, and
I grew up with nothing. And nobody's saying that you
didn't work hard, and nobody's saying that that you were
given all these things. But but if there is such
a thing as white privilege, I believe that there is.
Whatever you want to call it, it's that it's that
as a white person, as a white man, I was
(15:42):
never held back because of the way I loved my kid.
My skin color didn't hold me back. I wasn't looked
at differently. I wasn't treated differently. I wasn't denied opportunities
because of my skin color. And that's a privilege. Like
I said, I can walk through life unconsciously and not
have to think about things that a black man has
to think about. And that's the reality. And that has
(16:04):
to be frustrating on a daily basis to have those
interactions and to feel like that, and that builds and
builds and builds, And I think you hit the nail
on the head. That's important that these this is different
than Rodney King and Watts and these other these other
you know, protests and riots and things like that, because
they're happening in white people's neighborhoods and they're happening and
(16:26):
it's making people uncomfortable and maybe that's what needs to
happen for real change to happen. And it was really
it was really a perfect storm. I mean, all the
pressure valves were We're tied up, like you couldn't go
to the gym, you couldn't go to church, you couldn't leave,
you know, the quarantine and people were already on edge
and they're just and now it's just like screw it, man,
(16:48):
you know, there's just nothing to relieve a little bit
of the pressure every single day from the think. I
think you're right where this is a there's there's a
lot going on in the country where with COVID, which,
as you said, it's like closed down a lot of things.
(17:09):
And the people who are being you know, who are
shouldering the largest burden our minority communities, ones who can't
afford to be out of work or uh and then
and then uh, that also is because a lot of
them are now also unemployed. There's this large amount of
people that are unemployed. There's a large amount of people
(17:31):
who are they're scared, people are scared, they're angry. It's
it's a bunch of things. And well, it's like the
looters you have, the opportunists is what they're calling themselves.
You know, they're not they're not out there to protest,
they're not about the cause. They're just out there to
try to come up on some money and be able
to sell some some stuff. And and that's that's that's Unfortunately.
I think there's always gonna be people like that. They
(17:51):
We're always gonna have whatever you want to call them,
opportunists and things like that. And I think, I think,
but there's just so much Look the media and then
and ultimately, right, I'm part of the media. Um, we're
all part of the media to some to some extent,
but I feel like there's there's still a lot of
misinformation out there. It's really tough um to understand because
you say, okay, you know, now you hear about right,
(18:15):
there's peaceful protests, and then there's whether it's an all
right group or something that is there to try to
make it look like the protesters are vilent and and
and and and destroying property and looting and doing things
like that. It's so complicated, and ultimately, what we really
need in this country is we need leadership. We need people, um,
(18:38):
with a voice to stand up and and to speak.
We need to educate ourselves, especially for me, like when
i'm you know, i'm you know, as a white man,
and you know, continue to try to educate myself about
whether it's black history, the civil rights movement, things that
you know, talk to my black friends have that those conversations,
and we need to be exposed to that. We also
(18:59):
we need to have compassion and empathy. And it's it's
not These are not easy. You know when when you're
sitting there and I'm having a conversation with my nine
year old because he sees what happened and he's watching
the news, and he asked me about Rodney King, and
he asked me about the riots back then and and
what is police brutality that? And what is you know,
what happened to George Floyd and and why are people
(19:22):
you know, why are people protesting and why are people rioting? Um,
you kind of have to break it down when you
talk to a kid and try to explain to them that, look,
it's it's not you know, there are people that are
peaceful that are protesting, white, black, Hispanic, Asian, whatever it
may be and people are angry, and people are frustrated
because ultimately, um, not everybody in this country is treated
(19:44):
the same. And there are people that have privilege on
one of them and uh, and we kind of gotta
we gotta work through it. We gotta stand up and
and and make make some change. And hopefully, you know,
this is one where we don't we don't find ourselves
every body falling back into their own comfort zone. And
then it takes another you know, another on our man,
(20:06):
you know, being killed, and uh, and the thing is
and look and the other thing is I just want
to say, like police officers have a hard job, all right.
They they deal with stuff on a daily basis that
we don't have to deal with, right that that we
we don't have to have those interactions. They're dealing with people, um,
good people, bad people, people that commit crimes, people that
(20:28):
are you know, and they their job is to keep people,
you know, keep the community safe. So they have a
tough job. And just like anything else, though, you know,
when you watch that video, though it's impossible, it's impossible
to sit there and say that was justified. And that
doesn't mean we can't cast blame on the entire police
community because there are overwhelming number of officers are good
(20:49):
officers that are that are there to help, um, just
like any other group of people, and and they're gonna
be good people and they're gonna be bad people. So um,
it's just we got to continue to educate ourselves and
have those conversations. The hope here is that in this
day and age with everyone using their platforms. Now, in
the nineties, you didn't have the biggest stars going out
and talking about these these hard issues. You didn't have
(21:11):
Michael Jordan's the biggest star in ninety two talking about
the riots. Now you have Lebron James and other athletes
who are who are coming out and standing up for
these these the rights and and and hopefully this opens
those conversations and more powerful people are able to keep
the conversation going and things will get done. Yeah. I think, um,
you know it's important to uh right now listen and acknowledge.
(21:37):
But you know we've said this already, but just you
can't stop there, which is just like wow, that's terrible. Yeah, okay, anyways, right,
and then that's sort thing like that's the thing that
that's what I think that I can acknowledge my white privilege,
and then I can go about just being white and
not worrying about And then I think to like you
were saying, though, it's like with with Travis that you
(22:00):
just said with the athletes and said is like the
important message though, is a lot of times in America
we talk about, you know, the cliche of like lifting
your by your own bootstraps, like hey, I'm going to
work hard, and then you think kind of you hit
a level of like in general, we've measured by uh
(22:20):
economic class, like I made my money, so we look
at pro athletes as that. But the message that they're saying,
which is important too since this is a sports pacat,
you know, we're we're talking about athletes, is we know
even with that status or it's a it's a a
(22:42):
an African American celebrity, it's not necessarily a they're an actor,
they're a you're someone who's still are still black and
you are still viewed with suspicion because we've had uh
NBA players, NFL players who would have had like been
wrongfully arrested, you know, and then you have uh situations
(23:03):
like um, I can't remember his name now, but like yeah, regardless.
It's it's just something where it doesn't it doesn't matter
how much money you make, uh, you will, they will
always feel like they are viewed with sufficient I mean
a great example, although this didn't happen the United States,
(23:24):
I believe it was in France, but when like Oprah Oprah, Yeah,
they were like, they were like, I don't think it's
like the one of the like highest profile women enriched
on people on the planet, and they and they wouldn't
let her into some high end boutique in Yeah because
because of the color of her skin. They're just like, Yeah,
(23:45):
it's crazy. It's arguably one of the like the most
influential women of our society of our lifetime. It's crazy.
How do they I think back? I mean I think back.
I remember one of my friends who lose in Chicago, UM,
who ended up getting a big job making a lot
of money, and he moved to this Lake Forest area
in Illinois, which is near where the Bears train, and
(24:07):
I remember we were all sitting around and he was
talking about the people that lived in his community. And
Michael Jordan had a house there, and there were several
other high profile Bulls Bears, all all black right, and
he was saying, and he was explaining to us, you
know all, you know, to show how high profile and
how high end this neighborhood was. And my other friend
(24:27):
just said, oh, so you live in a black neighborhood,
you know, like like that's that's the the idea that
it doesn't matter what status you make as an athlete.
That and that's why it's important to here that that
there's still you know, there's still discrimination regardless because people
will sit here and say, what do you what do
you have to worry about your Lebron James or or
(24:49):
you know, whoever it is. You don't have to worry
about anything, And the reality is, yeah, they do, and
we don't understand that. And that's the crazy part about
all this. All right, I think we I think we've
I think we've we've hit this. Let's let's take a break.
We come back. We're gonna talk NFL rules changes, and
(25:10):
we're gonna see and get some updates on when we
can see other sports like the NHL, the NBA, majoring baseball.
Return next on Good Calls. All right, we're back on
(25:30):
Good Calls. Let's talk NFL NFL rules changes a little
bit later this year thanks to COVID nineteam. Usually this
would be decided in March. UM lead meeting was pushed back.
UM NFL membership had a virtual meeting last week on Thursday,
(25:55):
and they reviewed UM several rules proposals. Let's go through
what passed. Okay, So they made the automatic review of
all tries regardless of what is ruled and scoring plays
and turnout was that were negated by penalty. They made
that permanent. That was a one year change. Last year
(26:16):
it was part of the p I review proposal. Will
get to p I review in a second UM. So
that's that's a permanent change. All that means is on
any try play, if there's any question, anything that's reviewable,
it would be an automatic review. The replay official would
have to stop the game, the coach can't challenge it.
And then any score that is negated by a penalty,
(26:37):
UM the Chargers score touchdown but there's holding on the
left tackle, anything that would be reviewable because there was
a score during the down, even though it was eventually
negated UM, it would be up to the replay officials,
so the coach doesn't have to challenge. It doesn't happen
very often. UM. So that was the one change that passed.
In terms of replay. They expanded the protection for defer
(27:00):
defenseless player UM to include the the kick returner who
caught the kick, and they extended it to give him
time to protect himself. So in the past punt returner
UM kickoff returner, more punt returner because that's where the
contact is more likely. UH. He was protected up until
he caught the ball. Receiver protected a little bit longer.
(27:20):
Receiver can catch the ball and then has to clearly
establish himself as a runner be able to protect himself. UM.
So they extended that protection that the receiver gets to
the kick returning So now the kick returner, the punt
returner catches it. The moment he catches it, if he's
hit in the head neck area, it would be a
foul for a hit on the defensive player. He actually
has to protect himself. UM. And then the last change
(27:43):
that passed, this was the the Bill Belichick did it
to the Jets, and then and then like Rabel did
it to Bill and this was the the successive fouls
that led the clock UM in the fourth quarter, the
offenses ahead, they're about to punt they take a delay,
a game play clock goes to runs down another twenty
(28:05):
five then they fall start. The league changed the rule
to say that those fouls now UM in the fourth quarter,
the fouls that prevent the snap, the false start, the delay,
game offensive fouls would now the clock would start on
the snap. So you can't you can't, um, you know,
take an additional UM forty seconds in additional seconds off
(28:26):
the clock in those situations. So so those are the
three that passed. Nothing earth shattering there. I don't think
there's anything major there. Um. The one that that that
got tabled, which was the interesting one, which is Travis's
favorite rule change proposal of all time, is the on
side kick alternative. Look he's getting I wish you could
see him now. He just smiled. He hasn't smiled. He
(28:47):
didn't smile once during the civil rights conversation. But now
he's smiling because of his heavy talking. This topic is
great because it's it's it's something that could change the
game and makes things different, makes things chaotic in the
game that that we love, and it gets people just
riled up about, you know, oh, the game can't change that.
(29:07):
The all the the the classic fans don't want to
see any changes, and I think it. I think, can
you lay out exactly what these changes? I can't, Travis, Like,
I didn't hear a word you said because I'm too
busy watching the Yaha take on Me video behind Skydells
has gotten the moving back. That's one of the best
videos of all time. So here's the proposal. And this
(29:30):
was proposed last year, something similar by Denver. Last year,
Philadelphia proposed it. This year, it was kind of dead.
There wasn't a lot of talk about this, and then
a couple of weeks before the meeting, it started to
build some momentum. And that momentum that was momentum that
was really being pushed from the league office, right, and
you had people at the league office higher ups, I'm
(29:50):
not gonna name names, but they really wanted this to pass.
They thought that this would infuse some excitement at the
end of the game. And and honestly, this was when
you talk about what's happening around the NFL. And this
was before, right, this was before the protests and everything.
But obviously COVID nineteen, but you had p I review
Dying a a a really ugly, ugly death Um, you
(30:14):
have the whole minority hiring process system that a lot
of people think is broken, and they really, i think,
felt that this would be a positive coming out of
this meeting to say, hey, look we're being innovative. Um,
we're you know, we're changing the game for the better
and we're gonna make it more exciting. Um. The alternative
is so the rule was basically, anytime during the game,
(30:37):
right a team could elect in lieu of a kickoff,
they could elect a fourth and fifteen and that fourth
and fifteen would be one play from the twenty five
yard line, and if they got a first down, they
would keep the ball and can continue to drive. And
it was just gonna be like a normal play other
than it was gonna be an untimed down. So late
(30:58):
in the game, we're behind, we want to onside kick.
We could choose to go fourth and fifteen and run
one offensive play and if we got first down, the
drive would continue. If we scored a touchdown, Great, we
scored a touchdown. Um, that's the that's the rule. Change it.
It was discussed at length. The language was amended actually
(31:19):
before the meeting because there was some concerns about it
was originally designed to be a time to play, And
what teams thought of is you know, I'm up, I
scored the game winning touchdown, or or I'm still up.
They scored a touchdown the team that it's behind. Um, wait, no,
here's the deal. We scored touchdown to go up. All right,
(31:40):
we take the lead. There's three seconds left, we're gonna
kick off. Instead of a kickoff, I'm gonna run my
fourth and fifteen. I'm gonna take the snap. I'm gonna
roll out to the right, and I'm gonna throw the
ball downfield as far as I can and run out
the clock. I don't even have to worry about a kickoff.
So that concern led them to go with an untimed down. Um,
it was sixteen sixteen in the room, so they did
(32:02):
like a kind of a strong pole and ended up
being sixteen sixteen. You need twenty four to vote yes
in order for the change to pass, So they tabled it.
And when they tabled it, that means that they're going
to try to work it and try to get the
additional eight votes that they need to get this. Do
you know what it was last year when it was
when it was talked about what was sixteen. I don't
(32:23):
think they had. I don't think there was as many
as sixteen might have been twelve with thirteen, yes, is so, Look,
the bottom line is is this is It's an interesting alternative.
I don't hate it. I like anything that's going to
create a more exciting game, gonna allow teams to come back.
I still think it's a fundamental change to the game.
And whenever you're gonna make a fundamental change to the game,
(32:46):
you need to make sure that you fed out the
unintended consequences and you think about all the things that
could happen. This isn't a player's safety change. There's no
data that says fourth and fifteen is more or less,
say than an on site kick, right, They just they
don't have that information. Um and and so this is
strictly trying to make the game more excite exciting. But
(33:09):
I'll ask you, you know, you guys are fans, you
watch enough football. Does the NFL have an excitement problem?
I don't think so, not in not in this instance
for this specific set. Also, I think fourth and fifteen
these days, like, I think that's not that hard to know.
What do we have the percentage of what fourth and
(33:31):
fifth and say, you know fourth and fifteen when we
did it. No, it's less than that. The on side
kick is the onside kick historically is is you know,
somewhere around ten percent maybe twelve success. It dropped well
below that. Inen that's why this these conversations are happening.
Um Now, when you think about the you know, the
(33:54):
first person that brought this up was Greg Shanno when
Greg Shannon was at Rutgers and and his and and
Greg brought this up because of players safety. Again, this
has not been brought up for players safety. And right,
what's that? That was before they changed the rule of
the onside kick where guys can't run up, So they
changed that the current player safety and and that, but
(34:16):
that was from if you remember back in it was
the mid two thousands of Eric Grant, who was who's
a Rutgers player, was paralyzed on a kick return and
making a tackle and was paralyzed and so and so
we started, you know, Greg was the one that really
pushed this idea of this alternative and you know, it
got some attention that it kind of died down. They
(34:36):
made some significant changes to the kickoff on both sides
of the ball and uh, and now we're back. I
don't again. I like the onside kick because the onside
kick was a tactic that teams created within the existing rule. Right,
the existing rule was that the ball was a live
ball once it won ten yards. That was the rule
(34:57):
of the kickoff rule for forever. And so teams came up,
they were creative and they came up with his tactic
within the existing rule. Now you're just creating something artificially
to say, we want to be more exciting. We want
teams to have that opportunity. The other thing is a kickoff.
Right on a kickoff, the kicking team can't recover it
and advanced at fourth and fifteen, you catch a pass,
(35:18):
your god, you got a touchdown. So so we don't
want to make it too easy for teams to come back. Um,
I don't know. I like the oncet kick where it is.
I think it's a it's a very um, it's very
skilled play. Joe being a part time amateur kicker, you
can understand that. And can we read We discussed again
(35:38):
Joe's idea and his his kicking ability that he thinks
he can he's well, we came up with another one.
But Joe thinks he can kick a thirty five yard
field goal. He's just cold, no warm up, He's going
to kick a thirty five yard field And Joe, how
long have we been talking about that? And how since months? Now?
This episode? So thirty seven weeks long time? No, but
(36:07):
long before that we were talking about Dean knows he
knows I could do it. He's just well, Joe, Joe.
A couple of things. Joe, if he were four inches tolder,
he'd be an NFL tight end. And we determined that
if he was a hundred pounds wider, he'd be an
UFC fighter. I've never heard that side of it. That's
we just came up with that one. He would dominate
(36:30):
like the bantam weight or featherweight division. Let me just
let me just explain something to tell you guys, no
matter what I do, Dean has to be on the
opposite side. That's just how he is. He's just like, Oh,
this guy is too confident. I gotta I gotta knock
him down a little bit so he knows I could
kick the field goal. Wait, Travis is so confident, I'm
always busting his jobs. Travis isn't like a like a guy.
(36:54):
Whatever it is, it's just you just have to bust people.
That's your Italian and that's how Italians do. That's how
you guys know love and I appreciate it. Oh absolutely.
If I don't bust your chops, that means I don't
like you. Indifference, Right, what's the opposite of love. It's
not anger, it's indifference. It's like old coaches will tell you,
if I'm not trying to help you, then I've given
up on you. And so I don't know. The criticism
(37:16):
is we never heard that, Dravis. That's the that that
is not a say like you just say ever a coach?
That are you kidding me? Know you think about great
quotes by coaches? What is it again? What's the great quote?
I paraphrase the coaches? So this is maybe more more
high school, not so much for like high elite athletes
(37:36):
want me to continually give you criticism and help you
because that means I still care about you. And that's
the worst quote ever. If you're if you're gonna drop
a quote, it's gotta be like, right, what winning? What
is the the Lombardi quote? Right? Winning? Winning isn't Everything's
the only thing. Yeah right, it's got to be something
(37:57):
like that succinct to the point you just what what
did you just missed the mark? Sorry? I had no
idea all. I just needed you to make fun of
me more. That's all you do. That's how that's how
these are like my children, and they'd be like, oh,
he's not making fun of me. Let me Joe does.
He doesn't care anymore. He doesn't does that when no
(38:18):
thinks I don't care, He'll wear some ridiculous outfits. How
about pants that he knows, he knows I'll make fun
of them. That's and he and he'll walk in and
he'll stand there and wait for me, and I'll be
like what He's like, what what? I'm just standing here
in my leopard pants. I just like to give you
a real quick though. Wouldn't be just about the anti
(38:45):
kick if they do a fourth and fifteen. I feel
like the reason why I said like the percentages might
jump to us because it's like, well, you're probably gonna pass,
so there's now there to be a pass interference. That's
what happens there. What I'm saying of somebody official thinks
he sees a whole that's five yards and an automatic
first down, and now we look at it, there's way
(39:06):
more there's way more opportunity for penalties on a fourth
and fifteen than there are on an on site kit.
And I love like fun ideas, weird ideas, because I
think a lot of all sports get a little bit
too bobbed down in fear of change. But I think
the site kick is good, that it's very rare. It's
(39:30):
like it's it's a desperation move, and it's it's it
should be hard, and yeah, it is hard, and when
it works, it's amazing, and it does happen once in
a while, so it's exciting when it When it works,
all right, let's let's jump. That's NFL rule change is
the other one I want to talk about. That is
the experiment, the sky Judge experiment. Um, they're gonna do
(39:52):
it during the preseason. The way this thing is written
is interesting because it only deals with a couple of things,
and they're all all already reveal bolk possession plays, goal
line plays, boundary plays, issues with the clock, and it's
gonna be the onfield officials have to communicate upstairs to
the replay booth, ask for help and the replay official
(40:13):
has to provide that help before seconds is on the
play clock. So you think about the timing of that
plans play clock, it's reset to forty right, we get
a ruling. By the time we have a ruling and
the officials know what's going on, we maybe at thirty six,
thirty seven seconds, and now you've got twelve seconds to
communicate upstairs to the replay booth and have replay have
(40:35):
definitive video to help you with something. So I get
the idea trying to be efficient, not slowing the game down,
but it's gonna be a challenge. Ultimately, what this is,
what's gonna happen is that's how they write it. In reality,
replay is gonna be the one communicating first. Um, that's
how it works. That's how it happens. They'll call down
to the referee, they'll call down when and every crew
(40:56):
will have that same conversation. Every crew will tell their
replay official when you see something, just tell us, communicate
to us. We're not gonna ask right, tell us if
you see something, say something right there you go. See.
Now that's a set that's a good quote. That's a
saying I could go with that's you see that. You
see that on the subway in New York City all
(41:16):
the time, see something, say something right better than your
other one. If I don't, if I don't pay any
attention to you, I'm not trying to get you better,
and I don't care, and you suck whatever else he
tells you said. All right, so that's that's not about
rule changes. All right, Let's let's take a break and
when we come back, we're going to do the first
(41:37):
Good Calls movie review. Cisco Ebert Tamil Hanson, Madrid of
Latin of Next on Good Calls. All right, We're back
on Good Calls, and I cannot be more excited because
(42:00):
I feel like this is the first time in history
we've known it. You all. I've known Joe for you know,
over ten years. I've known Scott and Travis for the
past what three and a half years working together, and uh,
all three of us i've worked together in the past
two years, and never, not once, have we ever all
(42:23):
seen a movie the same movie. We've never. Never Joe doesn't.
Joe's always like, you got what do you guys have?
Have so much time to watch movies? You know, I'm
out You know, doing my thing and blah blah blah,
and Travis is like, I don't know why, Travis just
the average white guy. I don't know how come you
haven't seen every movie. In some movies like Rocky you've
never seen and Scott and I have pretty much. Scott,
(42:45):
I think it's seen more than me. But I think
Scott and I have pretty much pick up the slack
with movies. But I think Scott saw this movie first
and he months ago. My god, he just when it
came out like the weekend. It's not when came out.
This movie hard, like when I first saw Rocky and
(43:08):
when I was eight years old, I was pushing Rocky
hard that Monday school. I was like, you got to
see this movie. He you don't think he's gonna win?
And he went, or he you know, it's insane. Watch it.
So uncut gems with Adam Sandler Um, Scott went and
stow it, said it was unbelievable, said it was worthy
of Oscar Oscar consideration. Um was nominated, I believe for
(43:32):
some categories. It was not nominated for any category. Not no,
no Academy Award nominations, no no, no, no no no no.
I'm gonna we're gonna talk about Gems. Adam Sandler. We've
all seen the movie, now, Okay, so we know Scott
loves this movie. He was pushing it. He said it
(43:52):
was great. I so I watched it, and here's a
couple of takeaways. Um, I didn't realize I there would
be more sports betting references in the movie. There wasn't
a lot like he was a degenerate. But it's not
like he was. I thought he was gonna be laying
bets all the time. The movie was more about and
(44:14):
this is a spoiler alert if you haven't figured it out,
we're gonna talk about the movie. So if you if
you haven't seen it and you want to watch it,
still listen because we need the listeners, but just kind of,
you know, then come back if they've got we've already
got the movie, the podcast. Go watch the movie, then
come back. It's on Netflix now, Netflix Now. It was
(44:35):
more about It was more about the opals, right, the
uncut Gem, the stone he you know, Okay, Kevin Gardner,
this guy Adam Sandler runs He and I and look,
I used to walk on Street in Manhattan and the
Diamond District every day. My office was right there. The
NFL office is not far. We used to walk down
(44:55):
that block all the time when I took the F train. Um.
So it's the Diamond District. And what it is is
it's a lot of shops you can go get jewelry.
There's a lot of Hasidic Jews that that run those shops.
Adam Sandler this Jewish guy that owns this shop in
on forty seven Street, and it's a you know, it's
a jewelry shop. He works in diamonds and watches and
(45:15):
all the things. He has a guy, Um, this younger
black guy that helps get him celebrity clients, a lot
of athletes. Um. They end up bringing Kevin Garnett into
the shop. Kevin Garnett is looking at some jewelry and um,
Adam Sandler gets this uncut these opals from an Ethiopian mine,
right from an and and it's supposed to be He
(45:37):
thinks it's gonna be worth a million dollars, right, it's
like something like three carrots and whatever it is per carrot,
and he shows Kevin Garnett. Kevin Garnett falls in love
with this stone and basically borrows it. He's in the
middle of the the NBA Eastern Conference Finals against the Sixers.
What what do they have? Like two thousand and eight,
(45:57):
two thousand nine, the year the South twelve, I think, okay,
that's what the date in the movie was. Yet falls
in love with this, with this dot, with this opal
stone and basically takes it. And the whole movie is
about Adam Sandler being a degenerate and trying to you know,
he's he lays these big bets. Um, he owes he
(46:21):
owes his brother in law money, right, that's his brother
in law, Yes, yes, And there's a lot of robbing
Peter to pay Paul, Like there's a bunch of he's
got bets on bets on bets using borrowed money to
front for something else. And the collateral for the for
the uncut gem was was was it the two thousand
South Championship celic KG gave him and he also had
(46:44):
I'm saying there also has the nineteen seventy three Knicks
Championship print. But Adam Sandler's brother it was tiny. Adam
Sandlers brother in law is the worst mob boss of
all time in that movie, like he gets the worst.
He was like tickling him like, oh, yeah, this is
what he It was his it was his goons that
(47:05):
were the ones that were more of of the guys
that were pushing and so the whole movie look the
highlight of the movie for me. I fell in love
with what's her name, Julie Box. I love her, Okay,
I was reading up about her. Born Italian Italian born
in Milan, grew up in came to New York, grew
(47:28):
up in Yorkville. Um, how to make this match happen?
Love love, So if you're listening, I'm single, hopefully you're single.
And I did read that she was separated, uh from currently.
I don't know if they were married or whatever, but
is currently separated. So let's make that happen. Um, I
don't know. I liked the movie. It was very it
(47:50):
was a very difficult movie to watch at times because
there's just it's like, I like, it was just manic
at times, right, the yelling and screaming. They're in the shop,
everybody's screaming and yelling, and I'm like, dude, I'm gonna
lose my mind watching this movie, Like it's making me
uncomfortable with the point of view camera too. In the
(48:11):
movement always just moving around and there is is a
wall of noise. Like my favorite or the perfect example
to me is he's in his office like he's Stanfield's
character is like just bashing everything. He's on the phone
with his doctor. People are yelling at him like he
thinks he might have colon cancer. It's all crazy, yeah,
(48:33):
And I was like stop, I need to hear one
thing over the other. And it was just really just manic.
He He ends up that that was the thing that
where you knew he was in degenerate when he had
the money to pay off his brother in law and
he locks them in the in the space between the
shop and the safety. He's so he can lay the
(48:59):
worst bet in history of the opening tip. So you
don't understand gaming. Okay, would you ever lay a parlay
on a game like that and have the opening tip
be part of it? But I'm not. I don't I
don't understand it. I don't even know if that would
(49:19):
allow you to those types of plays. I mean, I
guess somebody will take it somewhere for sure, thousand dollars.
And it all hinged on KG getting the opening tip start.
He goes, he k wins the tip and he's like
he's yelling at the guy. He's like, that's the one
that mattered. That was were like, yeah, no ship, then
(49:41):
the movie's over if he doesn't win. What did you say?
I've seen a lot of movies about gambling and like,
you know, poker whatever, you that final bet, even though
because knowing it was that ridiculous, but like, I feel
like it's one of the only movies or TV shows,
like any entertainment that's captured that gut heeling of like
(50:04):
you're nervous, total scared but excited about that. Yeah, And
I don't know, and I'm not a big gambler. Like
the biggest bets I do is like I'll do a
hundred dollar like three team parley, but you're like so
nervous and like free half. I just if I'm betting
a hundred and seventy five thousand dollars, I'm not putting
the opening tip on the parlay. Like I can understand. Okay,
(50:28):
you think he and then he basically talks KG. This
is Kevin Garnett, who's one of the best NBA players
of all time, needs Adam Sandler to tell him, nobody
thinks you're good because Vegas only says you're gonna get
eighteen points and seven rebounds and so on. The verge
of Game seven in the Eastern Conference Finals, Adam Sandler
(50:50):
is firing up kJ to have a good game, like
he needed that. It was I liked it. I liked
the movie. I'll watch it again, especially for her. I
it I thought, she um, I thought, you know, I
just felt like his brother in law, he owes him
how much money. They basically kidnap him. They throw him
(51:10):
in a car. They don't even really rough him up.
They strip him down naked and put him in the
trunk of his own car. Wasn't that a funny scene? Now?
But if I'm a mom boss like I'm not, and
this guy's be money, that's the that's like giving him
a nookie him pretty much mom boss out, because it's
like it's thing. He's a thing. He's some sort of
(51:34):
like in between the loan shark type guys. He's something.
And then well, that's why he didn't beat him up though,
that's why he is his brother in law. He's not
he can't like, but why is he why is he
hiring these two idiots? And then the guy they win
the bet he's gonna make a million dollars and they
shoot him. He shoots him. I was like, I was
(51:56):
shocked because he shot him. And I can't believe you
texted that, because I was I was watching the movie
as you were texting and that and then and it
was the worst crime ever. They shoot Adam Sandler, they
shoot the brother in law, and then they start robbing
the place like they're gonna get away with that. There's
cameras everywhere, there's I mean, it was just I liked
(52:21):
the movie. I don't the most unnecessary part of the
movie was the two guys that look like accommodating like
Stephen Wright was smaller and had gray hair like those
two guys hilarious, but I didn't understand the point like
that added so much like adding I was like, wow,
these guys are these guys heels, these guys money kids
(52:45):
was an actual degenerate, but they like they were twins.
It was just very weird. Those had to be real
Diamond District guys, right, They just just all very weird.
I love I love the New York back drop, I
love all of that. I love you know his house
was in Long Island. All of that probably in the
Five Towns, I guarantee, you know they lived Jewish community. Um,
(53:07):
siocet uh all you know, but it's it was so
I thought. I thought his wife was great in it. Uh,
the whole, the whole interaction with the kids was great.
What did you What did you think about the John
Amos Canyon? Did you really? Bizarre? Right? Right? He just
(53:28):
when when he said that, I was like, is he
is he serious that that? John Amos? One of my
favorite shows growing up was Good Times and and Jimmy
Walker and John Amos and and and John Amos. I
loved him as an actor. I loved him on that
show with with um you know who was it was?
(53:49):
It was j J. It was Michael, it was um
who is the sister of Good Times? Um? Oh my god,
why why am I drawing a black? There was Willona?
Willona who was who lived who lived across the hall?
Um the sister. I had such a crush on her.
Oh I'm not sure. I can't think of her name.
Either way, It was just it was very I thought
(54:10):
that was I was just like, oh, what a weird funny.
It was just weird. And then he's like, can my
kids use the bathroom because I think my girlfriends and
and then he's like like no, like I thought there
was I thought the kid was gonna go in. There
was gonna be pictures on the wall. Nothing real quick.
Um My, When I saw the movie in the theater
with my friend, one of my friends, her mom is
(54:33):
a is Jewish from Long Island, she was saying those
family scenes were giving her like PTSD anxiety because it's
like it reminded her of like having to hang out
with that side of the family, how man. And there's
there's a lot of there's a lot of parallels between
a Jewish family and an Italian family. And I was like,
(54:56):
you know, I grew up on Long Island. I grew
up you know I had Jewish friends. Um so I
understand that whole dynamic and it and it brought me
back to that family that manic Like I just imagine
my sister. My mom lives with my sister right now.
They've got three kids and two dogs, and and it's
just when I go over there, it's like uncut gems
all over again. Like I have to like go outside
(55:18):
every half hour just to kind of you don't even smoke,
just to have a cigarette. Right, yeah, I'll just he
was my brother smoke, so yeah, my brother if he
comes over. Well, I think the only the last say
is just like yeah, it isn't so focused on sports. Family.
But I did like, uh, if you are an NBA fan,
(55:39):
there's the you know, there's like the digs at James stolen,
you know, there's the fun selling around the edges that
feels offense was good. That was really good. I was
surprised with that. Yeah, yeah, I mean it helps that
he's playing just like a version of himself. But then
like like Adam Sandler's character was so like he goes
(56:04):
to the show and his girl. He thinks his girl's
hooking up with the weekend, so he attacks what, you know,
his girl that he was cheating on his wife with.
By the way, like his side his side woman. Well
that's the other thing that that didn't make sense. The
brother in law had to have known he was cheating
on his on his sister, so it's like that he
(56:26):
would have already gotten rid of him or treated him
much much worse. But you know, well, I think though
he's married in there, he's he's not Jewish, that's the thing.
But goes in isn't. So it's like that's why that scene. Also,
by the way, I thought jud Hersh had passed away.
So when I saw this movie in the theater and
he said, I'm like, yo, good to see Jed Hirsh.
But you know, he's like jud Hush has a lot
(56:47):
where he's like he comes into my house and says
happy Holidays, like I'm a stranger. It's just it's so funny.
And the only the last thing I'll say is I
thought Garnette bailed out on the on the bid too early,
but he he's Kevin Garnett, and he stopped at one
night when one ten more thousand was was was the limit?
Like he's got that financial advisor, you know, telling you
(57:09):
don't go to an auction with your financial advisor. You
he said, the stone spoke to him. He saw the
flashbacks of his childhood, right, I mean, you did. You
can't put a price on that. And he said what
sailors said it was a million dollars. Now you're gonna
get it for You're gonna get it for two five. Yeah.
And also what he's probably earned, what like a hundred
(57:30):
and eighty million dollars was playing careers NBA. Forget he
came out of high school. I remember he got that
massive contract. Absolutely, if we looked, if we looked at
let's look up, I'm looking at what is Kevin garnett
career earnings? Yeah? All right, So what's so what's the verdict?
How do we rate this the movie? How we close
(57:51):
it and wrap it up? Here? I see career earnings
as three six six million, good gollion and he couldn't
shill out of next a fifty k for the stone
that spoke to him. That is some financial advice. Smart,
that's he's rich. That is some fun. God, you know,
God forbid if I've ever made three six million dollars,
(58:12):
oh my god. And by the way, if you ever
do lay a hundred seventy five dollar bet and a parlay,
I want to be there. Can I please be there?
If you ever lay on a scale on a scale
from let's just do standard scale one to ten, ten
being the best one being the least. Where did you
rat it, Scott? Where do you have? I have it
(58:33):
at a nine and not Okay, that's a high rating
because we're talking about what movies are nines right now?
In life? Well, so I like I thought it was
my second favorite movie of twenty nineteen. Uh, my favorite
movie A high rate. What was the first Parisite, which
was good? We haven't seen, haven't seen? I like Parasite.
(58:57):
I saw it was good? All right? Now was nine?
Is when I think nine? I'm thinking, like you know,
I'm thinking like movies like The Godfather, movies like you know,
you're when you start getting to those nine ten range.
But okay, Travis, Well, when I initially thought seven, when
Scott said nine, I was like, maybe I could lean
towards eight because I really love the pacing of it.
(59:18):
I felt like it was it just like it gave
you a feeling like when you were watching it, like
that's what you want from a movie, you want to
have something. It did not at all, not even anything
like Nights Cruise in Santa Cruising when you were when
you were drop kicking dudes and flip flops. Yeah, coming
into my shop taking my gems. Just it just it
(59:41):
evoked a feeling from you and like you had like
like a different like just I didn't ask, ask the
whole thing. Just give us a number. Yeah, I'm saying
I'm gonna go eight. Eight. Joe i'n go like six
and a half seven. It didn't invoke a feeling in you,
but it wasn't a feeling I was really need you know, No,
you didn't need in anxiety, something something out. What do
(01:00:04):
you think? I liked it? I thought it was above average. Um,
I'm grading it probably on a Harsher scale. I gave
it a I'll give it a six. Wow, I did.
I did like it. I thought, honestly, I like Adam Sandler.
I think he's he's become a really good actor. Beyond
the the you know, the the water Boys and the
(01:00:26):
and and and all those singer and Billy Madison's Um,
I just I kept I just felt like John to
Turo would have been perfect in that role. I just
I just saw John Turo and that I don't know,
just all right, let's up what what joke? I just
thought there was some kind of goofy parts of it,
like the Stone kind of was goofy. They couldn't like
(01:00:49):
the plot and just kind of the writing. But the
acting was fantastic, and yeah, it made you feel all anxious,
but m you know again, and from Joe Madrid, let's
let's go break to blind you know, don't have I
D for beer at seven eleven? Have to ask guy, Dude,
(01:01:11):
you're like thirty five. Oh, that happened to me when um,
when I was like in my thirties and they didn't
I forgot my I D and they wouldn't give me beer,
and I'm I didn't do it. But I'm leaving and
I'm like, should I ask that guy to buy me beer?
Like I thought about it. I was like, I'm gonna
(01:01:32):
go home, get my I D and come back or
should I just ask this guy coming in? And I
just anticipated Hill be like, dude, what your thirty five? Like,
why do you need me? She wouldn't. She wouldn't let
me buy a beer. I was like, listen, I don't
have my idea. I just brought cash. I'm obviously over
twenty one. She's like, I'm sorry, we had issues. I
can't I can't sell it to you if you look
(01:01:52):
under the rule. Yeah, years, but they don't, I mean
they don't, they don't really this. Yeah. So I was
seriously debating, like should I ask this guy? Like could
you imagine if some dude came up to that was
obviously you know, either older than you were the same age,
it was like, hey can you can you buy me
some beer? So yeah, that actually happened. We should just
(01:02:16):
we should stage something like that again and dude and
you you do it again and be like Deean Blandino
asked me to buy him beer? Have you? I had?
This happened a while ago at a few years ago
where I was going to a bar. My old license
had expired, the new one hadn't arrived, and I just
forgot the piece of paper and they're like it says,
(01:02:37):
I'm like tight, but they're like it doesn't matter. We
can't let you when this isn't valid. And I was
It's like you're not scanning anything. It just says that
like yes it's expired, but it expired saying I'm not
under all right, Great, so I just go home? Great, okay?
(01:02:59):
I are anything else to go to the cause? Next week,
next bus, next week we're gonna do We're gonna pick.
We're gonna do numbers one through five. We're gonna pick
the best athlete to where number one through uh five
