stat of the day or two. Brought to you by
Pennini America, the official trading cards of the program. World Cup. Yesterday,

(01:28):
Cape Verde tie Spain.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
YEP.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
I didn't know that Cape Verde was in the World Cup.
I didn't know where cape Verde is. I didn't even
know if I'm pronouncing cape Verde or cape Verd or Verd.
But we founded off the coast of Africa, and they
tie Spain, and Spain was the favorite to win. Still
is I believe the favorite to win the World Cup?

(01:54):
And three more ties on Monday France versus Senegal, Iraq
versus Norway, Argentina versus Algeria. Did in Algeria just fire
their coach after they lost their opening match five to one,
I think to Sweden. So I don't know who's coaching Algeria.
But cape Verde, I think there's what how many people

(02:18):
are in Cape Verde.

Speaker 5 (02:21):
It's a little under five hundred thousand, I think. And
for reference, since we're here, Connecticut is about six times
the size of Cape Verdet population wise.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
And Spain has forty eight million, cape Verde has five
hundred thousand. Also, the total value of players on each
team Spain's roster one point two billion, cape Verde fifty
five million, which is a lot more than I thought
it was going to be. This is how it sounded
yesterday on Fox Sports.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
This is a win. Look, they'll celebrated, it's over.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
It is a way in every possible way for cape.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Verdey and their first own in the World Cup game,
A zero zero draw.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
With the Uropa champion Spain.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
It was unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
You know, you just kind of stumble onto a game
and then you're going a match and you're going, all right,
this seems like a cute story, and all of a sudden,
I'm looking up and you know, you're in the eightieth
minute and I go, Spain's in a little bit of
trouble here. Even if you win, you've lost with public
perception of this, it's like, what is wrong with you, guys,

(03:34):
cape Verde. But I think cape Verde has has beaten
some powers before.

Speaker 4 (03:40):
Are you rolling?

Speaker 6 (03:41):
Ls?

Speaker 3 (03:41):
I am Verday?

Speaker 4 (03:44):
Go ahead?

Speaker 3 (03:44):
Third day?

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yeah, it's this might be the only day that cape
Verday has So this is like when you you know,
a sixteen beats a one in March madness, and then
all you care about is, hey, we got a couple
of days for people to find out about UMBC. You know,
you know whoever it might be when you're knocking off

(04:07):
somebody and you go, ohh whoa, I didn't know that
team was even in the tournament, Yes, Dylan.

Speaker 5 (04:12):
Yeah, that's my favorite part about soccer is it's like,
this is the greatest day in our nation's history, like
all had to go.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
We didn't score, but.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
They had one shot on goal. They had one shot
on goal. Spain I think only had eight.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
Yeah, Paul, Cape Verdey is three hundred and fifty miles
west of Senegal, out in the middle of the ocean.
What if you did a thing for tourism at the
airport in Cape Verdem. I'm sure there's a big city
where you sell ties to score right on it.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
Well, I don't know what that kind of weather you
probably don't want to be wearing a tie. I'm guessing
warm there. Cape Verday probably seems a little warm. It's
right on the equator, yes, probably really warm. Yeah, all
right eight seven to seven three DP show email address
DP at Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP show, Yes, Dylan,
Just for those.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
Who are interested, if you had parlayed all four draws yesterday,
which we had talked about doing, didn't do it, ten
bucks would have won you just shy of seven grand?

Speaker 3 (05:11):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Was there somebody who said, you know what, this is
a given, I'm going to bet a million dollars on
Spain to win that match again and I don't even
know what the return would be, probably nominal. But did
somebody do that publicly that they bet, you know whatever,
five hundred thousand dollars on Spain to beat Cape Verenday Pauli.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
There was a couple reports that a person just hours
before the game put one million on Spain to win.
He would have won one million eighty five so basically
eighty five thousand dollars he lost.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
See that they put up a million to win eighty
five thousand?

Speaker 5 (05:51):
Yes, oh yeah, But if you saw eighty five grand
lying on the ground, you'd pick it up too. That's
always people's argument for those like heavy favorite bets where
they're bet, you know, like one thousand dollars to win
on ten bucks.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Yes, like you'd pick up a ten dollar Bill.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
It's like not if I was going to lose a
thousand doing it?

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Oh well, yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
The soccer team of Cape Verdet is nicknamed the tuberoses
azusas the Blue Sharks.

Speaker 6 (06:16):
What that.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
The ego?

Speaker 2 (06:21):
Maybe can you bring back the uh a zail where
they move azalea is?

Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Could they make them sound like the shark like hmm,
we wouldn't get tired of that would wait?

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Yeah, Paul, I can't imagine sports radio in Cape Verdy
this morning does have to be blowing every other story
out of the world.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Oh they got to be. They were dancing in the street,
yes and rightfully? So what great story? Yes, dyling, Yeah,
they're there.

Speaker 5 (06:50):
Keeper got like almost seven million Instagram followers from their
zero zero tie yesterday.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
And he's forty one years of age. Legend, he's the
braun of Cape Verday. He takes a lot of criticism.
Better hair, okay, their goalie. He started the day with
forty five thousand followers on Instagram.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
He has seven million.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
By comparison, Josh Allen of the Bills has two million.
This dude is He's going worldwide right now, Cape Vera Day.
But I think he's forty one years of age. This
might be a part time job for him, Yes, Dylan, Yeah,
I saw he plays in like D two Portugal League.
I think like he's not even in like their like

(07:35):
Premier League conference.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
Whatever it is.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
It's a great story, and the World Cup always delivers
on these stories.

Speaker 7 (07:43):
You know.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
It could be you know, I mentioned Ivory Coast where
you're just watching and you go, I don't know any
of the players, but I'm going to watch. It's almost
like Stanley Cup playoffs where you don't have to be
a fan of either team, but you're going to watch
because of the atmosphere. And once it starts to get
towards seventy eighty minute mark, that's when things really really

(08:05):
get interesting.

Speaker 8 (08:07):
Yes, Marvin, what do you think Spanish sports radio is like,
right now, Barcelona.

Speaker 3 (08:12):
It's Bartholona. Say that one more time. Bartholona.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
Okay, Bthlona.

Speaker 9 (08:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
My son went there and then he came back and
we said, hey, how is Barcelona And he goes, first
of all, it's Bartholona. I go, no, it's not, it's Barcelona.
Well over there, it's Bartholona. They said, well you're not
over there.

Speaker 5 (08:36):
Yes, I actually I studied abroad in Barcelona, and I
didn't even learn that.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
I studied abroad in college. She didn't study me though.
That was the problem. You see what I did with
the Todd's lot here to go? Oh, I get a
bloop for that. What's the poll question today? Then we'll
get into this Soresby. We'll sort out this Soresby stuff.

Speaker 5 (08:58):
Well, we got a couple, dad, Do you want a
Soresby question?

Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yeah? Sure.

Speaker 5 (09:03):
Would you have a problem with your NFL team taking
Brendan Soresby in the supplemental Draft?

Speaker 3 (09:08):
All right, I'll save that.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
Now here's another thing Brendan Sorosby, and we've talked about
this that he had until June twenty second to declare
if he would win the supplemental Draft. I think all
the pressure that was happening, and it was happening in
real time yesterday. So I was getting information from one
of my sources and he said, hey, he's he's going
to go. He's gonna put his name in for the

(09:32):
supplemental Draft. And then all of a sudden the report
came out. You know, I don't do social media, so
I don't put anything out, you know, but I was
giving a heads up and then you know, Pauline and
I were back and forth and I said, no, it's real.
He's going into the supplemental draft. But also here's something
to keep in mind. Soresby will have to address these issues.

(09:55):
He's got to address the gambling issues. Now when is
he going to be able to with the teams? Does
he have a pro day? And here's another thing. Some
things have emerged from all of this that he has
anxiety and panic disorder issues. So he's got to address
a lot of you know things here. And teams have
to absorb all of this. And normally your NFL teams

(10:18):
will spend close to a year vetting out somebody and
they have to now do this in weeks and I
think that'll be a tricky part here of.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
What are you going to give up?

Speaker 2 (10:29):
And by all accounts, second or third round for Brendan
Sorosby also another thing. I mean, he's very talented. I
think he keeps the nil money. There been reports that
he does. I was told yesterday that he doesn't have
to give the money back. I said how much and
they said it's probably five million dollars. But he rushed

(10:51):
for I think eighteen touchdowns maybe the last couple of
years when he was in Cincinnati. So he is a
talented player, but I don't know how you can bring
him in get these interviews. Does he have a pro day?
Does he even when I have a pro Day? But
you got to answer questions with these teams, and I think,

(11:13):
when are you going to be able to do that?
And what are you going to give up? Second round,
third round? Yeah, Paul, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
Last year at Cincinnati, twenty seven touchdowns, five picks, he
ran for six hundred yards six yards of carry. Just
hours before he announced his intentions, the Big Twelve yesterday
filed a lawsuit in the District of Texas Northern District
to declare judgment and relief. Basically, they wanted to be
allowed to enforce their bylaws and if they won that

(11:41):
then they were going to sit him the whole year.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah, I think it was just all right, we'll give
you your money. We can't do this. And their odds
haven't changed, by the way, to win the National Championship.
I think it's plus two thousand to win it all
unchanged from yesterday. They're also still an overwhelming favorite to
win the Big Twelve.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Yeah, Dylan, Yeah, I'd be.

Speaker 5 (12:04):
Curious enough Vegas had sort of factored in that he
was not going to be playing this year, like when
they before he even announced he's going to supplemental draft.
I want like just based on how they priced it,
and it hasn't changed since yesterday. They must have been like,
this probably ain't happening.

Speaker 4 (12:19):
Yeah, pulling, does your source have any details on which
city is going to get the NFL supplemental draft, because
that will be that's to be a part of Kate
Verday supplemental Draft.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
Yeah, the commissioner comes out, you know, people there from
one pick.

Speaker 3 (12:36):
Pittsburgh could do it. They're still the infrastructure, and the.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Cardinals select Brendan Sowersby, goes out and he gets to hug,
take a picture, got a jersey up there. Everybody mel
Kiper discusses Brendan Soorsby, and then everybody goes home. Nothing
to see here. Some success stories from recent supplemental drafts
Josh Gordon, Terrell, Prior, Bernie Kosar, Brian Bosworth, Chris Carter

(13:04):
supplemental drafts and those guys. Bernie Cosar didn't come with baggage.
Bernie wanted to play for the Cleveland Browns. Now, I
don't know how he navigated this ro out smarted people.
It's not like the Boston Celtics drafting Larry Bird a
year before he was going to go in the draft.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
Yeah, Paul.

Speaker 4 (13:23):
According to a couple stories, a Bernie Kosar accelerated his
graduation date so he could lobby and pursue the supplemental draft,
and he won. It was one of those things that
no one expected to happen, according to this story.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Okay, all right, we'll come up with the pole question. Yeah, Dylan,
I was just looking. Josh.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
Gordon's actually been a supplemental draftee twice. In twenty twenty three,
the Seattle Sea Dragon stuck him in the sixth round
of the XFL supplemental Draft.

Speaker 9 (13:52):
Hmm.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
Yeah, so this was yesterday.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
I'm trying to do the timeline when my source said,
spoke with two agents who have talked with source bees
inner circle, and they expect him to go to the draft,
in large part because he doesn't want to cause further
long term damage to himself and this might be just
a clean break and you move on and then somebody's

(14:20):
gonna take him. The question is what do you give
up and how you know, the vetting process I think
is really challenging because let's just say you're taking a talent.
Let's say you're just looking at Cad Klubnik and you're going, Okay,
we need some time. You know, we got to have interviews,
we got to see the medical records. We're gonna look

(14:42):
at tape, We're gonna talk to sources. I mean, there's
a lot that goes into it. But you know, are
you getting access to the medicals? What are you allowed
to ask about the gambling? Are you allowed to I mean,
I don't know. We'll talk to Mike Florio. Can we
talk to the person or people who were at the

(15:03):
rehab facility?

Speaker 3 (15:06):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
We'll take a break here, just getting started, and once
again we say good morning to Cape Verde and also Hilo,
Hawaii very early there, early and often.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
Yes, Paul Dan, I'd been to Helo, Hawaii as an expert.
I was there for my honeymoon. I was on ConA,
but we spent a night in Heilo and lived it up.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
ConA has all the lava, yes.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
Okay, the airport is actually built on lava, old lava.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Not yeah, right, I think we were in Kona and
I think we took one of those helicopter rides.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Yes, and then my son threw up all over the bank.

Speaker 2 (15:47):
That was his verse of lava flow is yeah, all right,
let me take a break.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
We'll talk to Mike Florio. He'll clear this up for us.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
Nick's parade will be Thursday and the Hurricanes will be
on Saturday. France, Senegal, today, Iraq, Norway, Argentina and Algeria.
Did we find out if Algeria fired their coach or
their manager after the I think they lost five to
one to Sweden and I think they.

Speaker 3 (17:30):
They got a new manager. Does that sound right, Dylan?

Speaker 5 (17:34):
Yeah, that's correct after a five to one loss to Chidn.

Speaker 2 (17:39):
Okay, nobody knows Algeria soccer like I do, Yes, Paul.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
I think it's Tunisia fire their head coach or their manager.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
But that's not Algeria.

Speaker 4 (17:49):
I don't know about Algeria. I got Tunisia lost five
to one and their head coach got sacked, as they
say in some sacked.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Okay, did Algeria lose five to one to Sweden or
did Tunisia?

Speaker 3 (18:04):
I got Tunisia. No Sweden yet? All right?

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Uh? When I need to be made smarter about the NFL.
I what, Dylan, Now, I was just gonna say, I
looked at a bad article. It's the headline said Algeria
fires head coach. And then they clicked and it said Tunisia.
Oh okay, all right, never mind. People in Algeria going, wait,

(18:30):
what did he say? Mike Florio Pro Football Talk, And
whenever I need to be made smarter with the NFL,
I always call Mike and Mike joins this. Now, all right, Mike,
how does the supplemental Draft work?

Speaker 11 (18:44):
Well, yeah, Dan, I haven't had one since twenty twenty three,
and I tell them was picked that year. The loteft
was twenty nineteen. And what it is People say the
NFL doesn't have a draft lottery. The supplemental Draft is
basically a lottery. They break the teams into three groups
based on how they finished the prior year. Teams with
six or fewer wins are in one group. Teams with

(19:05):
six and more wins it didn't make the playoffs or
and another playoff teams are in the third that you
awaited lottery to determine priority. And then they basically go
round by round where you have to put in that
you're willing to give up your pick in next year's draft.
If you use, for example, third round pick to get
Brendan Soorsby, you'd lose next year's third round pick. You
bid in advance of the round, and then they see

(19:26):
how many teams put in and the team that is
highest on the priority list gets it.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
Okay, maybe it's too early to handicap what he's worth.
I think he's got first round talent. But what is
somebody willing to give up for Brendan Soorsby in your opinion.

Speaker 11 (19:44):
Well, it's going to be a team by team decision, Dan,
and I think it would be foolish to disregard the
outcry over the past week and just the PRF bunglings
by Texas Tech and the storm of controversy that emerged.
I think going to scare some owners off. This is
a guy who touches the ball on every play. You're
gonna want to be one hundred percent sure you're not

(20:06):
gonna have an archi leister or some other issue. In
this day and age where the NFL is trying very
hard to walk the line between profiting from gambling but
also keeping any scandals from infiltrating the sport. I think
that's going to be a big factor, and you get
limited time to properly scout him. You've got limited time
to get to the bottom of the gambling issue in

(20:27):
any associated diagnoses. I think some teams are just going
to say we're not gonna.

Speaker 6 (20:32):
Do it now.

Speaker 11 (20:32):
You're going to have other teams that, like the Browns frankly,
that look at everything as an analytical exercise and they're
going to try to project with the value of Brendan
Soresby is and who knows what they will do. Their coach,
Todd Munkin, is the only coach who has spoken publicly
about Swersby since all of this first came up.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Any chance the NFL does not let Soorsby into the
supplemental draft or punishes him retroactively once so he gets
into the NFL like Chill prior, and.

Speaker 11 (21:03):
Those are the two big questions Dan. First, will they
accept his application for eligibility. I was looking at the
CBA today. There's enough language in there to let them
basically do whatever they want.

Speaker 9 (21:13):
They could say, for example.

Speaker 11 (21:14):
If they want to that you knew you weren't going
to be eligible for twenty twenty six, you knew what
you had done. You knew which way this was going
to go. You deliberately waited until after the regular draft
and then played your cards and realized it wasn't going
to work, and then you went into the supplemental draft.
I'm not saying they're going to do that, but if
the NFL wants to find a way to keep him out,

(21:35):
they could cobble something together. And then as to the suspension, Yeah,
in twenty eleven, throughout prior to station in the five
game suspension from the NCAAA, he ended the supplemental Draft.
They let him in, but then they suspended him five
games to simulate what college football had done. There are
people around the league who already are concerned that he
may not be allowed to play at all in twenty

(21:55):
twenty six under the same reasoning that the NCAA applied.
But the counter to that is two things. One, he
has violated no NFL policies. He's done nothing wrong as
far as the NFL is concerned. To number two, Kayshawn Boody,
the Patriots receiver, he admitted to a gambling addiction. He
admitted he bet on LSU when he played for LSU
and when his underage betting came to light.

Speaker 9 (22:15):
The NFL didn't do anything.

Speaker 11 (22:17):
Now, he'd already been in the NFL for a year,
but the NFL did nothing to him.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
I couldn't help but notice the lawyer that he hired,
Jeffrey Kessler, who's been a thorn in the side of
the NFL. I think worked for the NFL Players Association,
if I have that right, Mike, Yeah, he's.

Speaker 11 (22:32):
Been a long time advocate on behalf of the players.
He's been one of the instrumental figures in the various
anti trust cases that have basically left the NCAA toothless.
And when that hire was made, that was one of
the first points we made at TFT. And this is
a two pronged hire. This is all right, let's try
to let's try to figure out what's going to happen
with NCAAA eligibility. And if that doesn't work, you've got

(22:55):
a guy who who has been in the in the
mud with the NFL many times, and I'm told he's
already working on the NFL to make sure they don't
throw up roadblocks for Brendan Sooresby.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
Who had a good day yesterday, Mike, a good day.
NCAA Big twelve Texas Tech.

Speaker 11 (23:15):
An existential.

Speaker 9 (23:17):
Look.

Speaker 11 (23:18):
It was a good day for the NCAA. It was
a good day for the Big Twelve. I think what
happened yesterday between the Big Twelve filing its lawsuit against
Texas Tech and the NCAA filing its appeal in the
roling that would have allowed stores me to play this year,
I think he realized I can't take the chance that
I ultimately don't play at all in twenty twenty six.

(23:41):
They put him in checkmate, and the only smart move
at that point was to say, I'm just going to
fold the tents on this when and go to the NFL.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
I don't know access to medical records, Mike. You know
that the gambling part of this. I was also told
that through all of this he had anxiety and panic
disorder issues like I don't know what's fair game here.
If I'm a team that I can ask for and
that they would accommodate.

Speaker 11 (24:09):
Well, you know how this goes, Dan. They get everything.
They get everything. That's why they do the scouting combine.
They go there to poking Proud and find out anything
they can physically and medically about the player and if
there's any resistance in being fully transparent, then they just
won't draft you. And so he's going to have to
be ready to let them ask any and all questions
they want to ask. He's going to have to answer
them persuasively. And that's the kind of thing where I

(24:31):
think owners who are already on the fence, if they
get the impression they're not getting the full story, they're
not going to authorize next year's draft pick on a
guy who may not play for them this year.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
If ever, if you're the NFL and I give you
one question to ask in this situation, what are you asking?

Speaker 11 (24:51):
Wow, that's a good question, which is my way of
buying time. I don't think that there is any one question.
I think you just need to know everything you can
about how he got here and where he is now,
what is his status right now? And you know, any addiction,

(25:13):
any addiction is that you don't just flip the switch.
It's a process, and I would want to have somebody
fully evaluate where he is right now and is he
ready to jump straight into an NFL training camp with
no off season.

Speaker 9 (25:25):
He's going to get.

Speaker 11 (25:26):
Drafted if he does, and he's going to go straight
to training camp. That's a hell of an adjustment for
a guy who's apparently dealing with anxiety and stress and
try to overcome this addiction. So I would just want
to have a very reliable snapshot of what's going on
with him right now.

Speaker 3 (25:40):
Thank you, Mike, uh and I hope you have a
good day.

Speaker 11 (25:43):
You beg you Dan, I'll say you buddy, Mike.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
Florio Pro Football Talk. You can watch the show on
Peacock prior to our show. Mike is a lawyer and
uh always uh always appreciate him joining us at Juicy
on short notice.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:00):
I think what you guys brought up there at the
end is really interesting. A lot of people are skeptical
of Brandon Soresby's addiction to gamling, but if it's true
and diagnosed, it doesn't go away in four weeks, and
that means he would have to enter the league and
that would stay with him, and that's a that's big.

Speaker 9 (26:19):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
I know people think you go to rehab and you're better.
That's not the case. You can maybe control it, manage it,
but it's every.

Speaker 3 (26:28):
Single day, and I think people lose sight of that.

Speaker 2 (26:32):
That, oh, you know what, he went to rehab, he's
okay to play college football or he went to rehab,
he can go in the supplemental draft.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
There's a lot of questions here.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
And if you're gonna have the guy, as Mike said,
he's handling the ball on every snap for your offense.
Is he capable of doing this? He's got the talent.
Everywhere he goes on the road, people are gonna mock him.
You know, how much money do you have on this game?
I mean, this is going to happen. There will be

(27:05):
fan bases who go after him.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, bully.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
If I could ask him one question, or if I
represent the league, I would say, when you were at Indiana,
were you told in advance you can't gamble on sports,
especially your own sport and especially your own team, And
knowing that, why.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
Did you do so?

Speaker 2 (27:27):
I don't I don't know if anybody told him. I
don't know what Indiana knew.

Speaker 4 (27:30):
I think compliance meets with athletes before the year starts
and just walks them through here's things you can't do,
especially betting on sports. My guess is that they have.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
To Well, what did Cincinnati know from Indiana? And what
did Texas Tech know from Cincinnati? That's I mean, there's
so many layers to this you know, did Texas Tech
know that he was betting and they still took him in?
Did Cincinnati know he was betting an Indiana? Did Cincinnati

(28:03):
let this story leak? I think he still went in
their lawsuit of a million dollars nil with Cincinnati and
Rendon Sorsby.

Speaker 5 (28:11):
I don't know if it's been finalized, Yeah, Dylan. Do
we even know how all of this ultimately came to light?
Was that Cincinnati uh self reported after he was departing
or I mean, it seems like because I know he
was betting through I think he's betting himself, but a
lot of it was through friends and stuff like that,
which is much harder to pin down unless you have

(28:32):
some sort of inside information that he'd probably been sitting
on for a while.

Speaker 2 (28:37):
I would I would want to ask. That's why I
asked Mike, who had a good day yesterday? Did the
nc DOUBLEA? Did the big twelve? Sorsby reportedly gets to
keep his nil, which is five million reportedly, and he
gets to go to the supplemental I don't know it
was one of those that all right?

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Who had a good day? Yeah, Pauling.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
There's multiple reports that the NSA was tipped off from
some type of law enforcement entity in April, and when
Soorsby and his people heard about this, they decided to
air quote self report to get ahead of the story.

Speaker 3 (29:16):
Okay, Chris and Syracuse Good morning, Chris, Hey.

Speaker 9 (29:21):
Thanks Dan.

Speaker 7 (29:21):
You have a comment on the Big Twelve. You know,
the Big Twelve flex their muscles canceling games and other
sports versus Texas Tech. And Dan, you've been saying with
Brendan Soorsby, the Big Twelfth conference should be the one
making the decision on should a player or not, And
ultimately they did. Is the Big Twelve board of governors
came out united and said in a statement he should
not be playing, and that really ended up overriding the

(29:44):
judges ruling, at least with Texas Tech as they came
to the Big Twelve and what Mike Florio said corrupt
prior when he went and supplemental draft got a five
game suspension from the NFL for violations a lot less
egregious than Brendan Soorsby.

Speaker 9 (30:00):
I wonder how much of the twenty seven season sores
be you will even be eligible for and if that
effects teams interested in him, I mean, is he worth
the compensation, the potential distraction he may end up in
the UFL.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
Yeah, I mean that going to be a team to
team of you know, do you want to take a
flyer on somebody?

Speaker 12 (30:21):
You know?

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Do the Eagles go hey, you know, bring him in? No,
see what we got? Maybe give up second round pick.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
If I'm the Jets of the Cardinals, I don't do
this because you want to be bad this year so
you can get your quarterback next year, like I got
to have at that position. I can't have question marks
where every night I go to bed, if I'm the
GM and I go kind, I hope I wake up
and I don't have a headline here staring at me.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
Yeah, Dylan, but.

Speaker 5 (30:56):
If you do want to punish him, you should just
have him.

Speaker 3 (30:59):
Go to the Jets. Okay, you forced him to the Jets.
Force him to the Jets, vake him start?

Speaker 2 (31:06):
Uh Kyle in Vegas, Good morning, Kyle, what do you
have for me today?

Speaker 12 (31:11):
Also?

Speaker 6 (31:11):
Dan, Good morning, Bennette. Look you touched on something yesterday.
I'll thought I can get in yesterday and the lines
were so jam packed. Everybody wants to to, you know,
report with the next thing.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (31:22):
So I'm gonna comment from yesterday's topic when you were
talking about people going around, because I'm still hearing it today.
People are calling Jalen Brunson Kobe Is she has the
Mamba mentality, but honestly speaking, the Mumba mentality, the Jordan mentality.
You need three of them, and you need three of
them back to back to back in order to be

(31:42):
called that. But Nick's on the Dynasty. I agree with
you one hundred percent. They have a lot of problems
going forward as far as cap space and resigning people
and getting new talent to come in as well. So
Josh Hart, that's what he said at the very end
of everything might come back on them. And last week
Jalen Brunston with his whole apology OS tour that he's
going around to all the sports media and making people

(32:03):
apologize for, you know, critiquing his game. And what you did,
what you did a couple of years ago is what
you did. What you're doing now is what you're doing now.
So you know, like you said, don't want to come
off as a hater, but I mean, I need you
to get three of them, and I need you to
do it back to back to back.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
Yeah, and I look, I you have to win your
first one if you're gonna have Mamba or Michael Jordan mentality.
All Right, he won his first People are making such
a big deal that years ago, I said, I didn't
think that he was the number one guy, as did
his head coach from Villanova. Jay Wright said that his

(32:47):
own coach said that. So for everybody to bring back
what I said, put it in context of what others
said and what you truly felt. And you wanted Donovan Mitchell,
you got a consolation prize in Jalen Brunson. You wanted

(33:08):
to keep Tibbs, you didn't want Mike Brown.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
We see how this happens. Put it in context. Yes,
I said that.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
Jay Wright echoed the same sentiments yesterday. Okay, enjoy your championship. Okay,
don't be more obnoxious than you already are.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
Enjoy it.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
You earned it, and Jalen Brunson is a great player.
Is this a dynasty? I don't think so, But who cares?
If you want a championship call me in a couple
of years. Okay, yes, Dylan.

Speaker 5 (33:51):
Do you think the Knicks win this title if they
have Donovan Mitchell and not Jailen.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
No, No, Donovan Mitchell was a really good player, and
nick fans wanted Donovan Mitchell. They didn't get him. They
got Jalen Brunson. Jalen Brunson, shut everybody up. But you
don't need to keep receipts. Just do scoreboard.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
That's all. Go to the parade. That's it.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
Oh you didn't think you're right? I didn't and neither
did you.

Speaker 8 (34:28):
Yes, Mark, I'm looking for someone that said I knew
Jalen Brunston would be a top five NBA player and
have a Jordan esque finals performance.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
I'm wait for that.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
Nobody thought this. He was a you know, a great
college player. He was a second round If he was
so great, why did he go in the second round?
Why did Dallas give up on him? Okay, he proved
the dowters.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
Wrong, but there are a lot of downters. Yeah, I do.

Speaker 5 (34:56):
It would be refreshing to see a next fan and
be like, you know what, I'm pleasant surprised by everything
that's happened here. I had no idea it was going
to be there.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
And that's the truth of this, Dylan, That's really the
reality of all of this. Yes, you're pleasantly surprised, maybe
pleasantly shocked, but you won.

Speaker 4 (35:15):
Yes, even after the good year the Knicks had last
year and the good year Brunson had six weeks ago.
I think a Knicks fan would have been surprised if
you told him they're winning the NBA title eight weeks ago.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
Yes, yes, I don't have any bias towards or against
the Knicks or Jalen Brunson. Man, I'm in the storytelling business,
and we got a great story to tell, and it
was unexpected. But most people thought they were going to
win the finals. Yes, Marvin once we got to the finals. Yes,

(35:47):
no one said he wasn't a good player. We just
didn't think he'd be a great player. Yeah, And I
was like, all right, nice signing. Yes he's once again
he proved everybody wrong. Enjoy your parade.

Speaker 8 (36:00):
Okay, no, they can't do there.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
It might be a long time before you have another one.

Speaker 2 (36:05):

Early poll results, Dylan, would.

Speaker 5 (37:24):
You have a problem with your NFL team taking Brendan
Sooresby in the supplemental Draft?

Speaker 3 (37:29):
Sixty percent say yes, Yeah I would too, Yeah I
would too.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
It's it's a tough enough job being the you know,
the face of a franchise, being a you know, high
highly paid player, probably the highest paid on your team,
and can you deal with the pressures that come along
with the most important position in all the sports. It's

(37:55):
tough coming in where you got all your senses and
no rehab and no you know, baggage or anything.

Speaker 3 (38:02):
Yeah, Paulie, I.

Speaker 4 (38:03):
Don't know how this would work. But could Brandon Soresby,
assuming he got his nil money, could he actually sit
out this year and work on himself, meet with teams,
talk to people, just skip this football season and enter
the twenty twenty seven draft and have a better chance.

Speaker 2 (38:19):
I think if you went to the NFL and you said,
what if my client sits out and continues to rehab,
and will you punish him if he's eligible for next
year's draft, like I would want to know, are you
going to have him sit out half the year or
you're going to give him a five game suspension, because

(38:40):
then you might just say, you know what, like the
bullet just do the supplemental draft. You got your money
and il money. Terrence in Texas, Hi, Terrence, Hey.

Speaker 14 (38:51):
Dan, First, I would to apologize. Last week I came
on and I came in a little hot and sending
tech and yeah I was little eat it about it all.
Apologize Also, it's been a rough sports week for me.
Not only am I a Tack fan, I'm also a
Spurs fan.

Speaker 6 (39:06):
So the past seven days.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
Haven't been great for me.

Speaker 6 (39:10):
And you asked my four yo.

Speaker 14 (39:11):
About who had the better week, and I do agree.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
The Big Twelve, you.

Speaker 14 (39:14):
Know, got flex and muscles and really show Tech today.
We're not going to back down on this, but ultimately
I do think Tech will have the better outcome of
being able to get this distraction off the program and
move forward and hopefully still win the Big Twelve and
compete for national championship.

Speaker 7 (39:31):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
Yeah, sorry about your week, and no need to apologize.
You're pumped up about your alma mater. But we we
try to have some common sense in our opinions. Here
we try Andy and Rhode Island. Hi, Andy, what's on
your mind today?

Speaker 13 (39:53):
Jude morning? Dan? What's up? Dan?

Speaker 3 (39:55):
And Dan?

Speaker 13 (39:56):
First off, I have to make a big shout out
to the Cape, Ernie and Ne because we held it
down yesterday. And when I say we, I mean me
because I am a Kate Vernie myself.

Speaker 12 (40:07):
My parents are they were born there. Both of my
oldest sisters they were also born there. I'm the only
American citizen. However, to see them be on a big
stage like that and hold one of the biggest teams
in the world, I feel like we're.

Speaker 13 (40:19):
Playing SD Barcelona, to be honest, because I.

Speaker 9 (40:21):
Feel like every player place for St.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
Barlow.

Speaker 3 (40:24):
Well, Andy, congratulations.

Speaker 12 (40:27):
And thanks to Day.

Speaker 13 (40:28):
And I would like to say also, I don't want
to be the pronunciation police, but I did have to
say that it is pronounced cape bird. It's not bird
a because in Portuguese you would say kabo vis, but
in English is just cape bird. And I did tell
Tyler I couldnot watch the English broadcast because they just
kept butchering cape Bird's name so much that it was

(40:50):
just a business to me. But you know, it's a
great start and to see where they can go. I
feel like Scott's womit because they are great. He that
has put together very well and Coase did a great job.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
All right, Well, Andy, thank you. On the broadcast they
said cape verdey even at the very end the announcers
cape Verde, cape Verd. I would go ver day, but
Cape verd with the tie yesterday, Andy, and Rhode Island,
all right, thank you, Andy. Tim Wagler, he was on

(41:28):
the call for the NBA Finals. Legs will join us.
Mikhale bridges Nick's forward. We'll join us a little bit
later on one hour. In the books, who's going in?
Then the confessional it's Dylan
