Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to it Broncos Country tonight. But with all Bride,
(00:02):
Dick Ferguson, Grant Smith, Heali, the Knicks absolutely handed it
to the Denver Nuggets one forty five to one eighteen
on their home court, and absolute lamb basting of the
Denver Nuggets, who were nine and seven oge Or Nabi
forty up, the forty Burger Karl Anthony Towell thirty points,
(00:25):
fifteen boards, Chalen Brunson twenty.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Three points, seventeen assists.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Guys like Miles McBride Cameron Payne were getting in on
the action at double figures. It was an absolute beat
down from the Knicks. Who I you know, I think
they're a better basketball team than people think, but they're
not one hundred and forty points against the Denver Nuggets good,
are they?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
No, they're not.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
But sometimes the giving of things comes a lot early
as the Nuggets became the feasts for the New York Knickerbockers.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
And the one thing that kind of got me.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Because I watched the Nuggets sometimes they in their two
three zone and if you have a guard that can
penetrate and get into paint, they kind of collapse.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
And if you were able to kick.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
It out to those your your wing players, and if
those guys can consistently knock down the three point shot,
it puts the Nuggets behind the eight ball. And that's
exactly what the New York Knicks Ashley did because well,
when when you look at the stat lines, the Nuggets
were dominating and assists, fast break points, defensive rebounds. They
(01:31):
shot from thirty percent from three, and they were slow
getting back on defense. I mean, you look at the
number of players in double figures. The Leaks had seven,
the Nuggets had five. And look, let's get credit where
credit is due. Russell Westbrook in four for seven from
three point land and twenty four points. But Ogian Andobi,
(01:53):
I mean, this was a career high for him.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
They could not stop him because I'm.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Sure he's going to find a to try to duplicate
whatever he ate, how he slept, whatever music he listened to,
because that dude could not miss a shot.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
It might have to change his name from Og to
triple Og because he was It was ridiculous, ludicrous. He
was sitting there just did I mean, just put it
to a forty points, just put it to him.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
It was bad.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Brother.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
The Nuggets have got to get more production out of
whoever is going to be filling in for Aaron Gordon Payton.
Watson finished with six points and twenty two minutes, Julius
Strother four points in twenty three minutes. You've got to
get more offensive productivity out of those two players.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah, you definitely have to.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
And if you're coach Malone, you're a little upset about
how your team performed, you know, at home, and sometimes
it's all about energy. Are you able to supply the
energy that's required to go out there and compete? Right?
Sometimes you may not be as talented, or you may
have an off night. But the one thing I always
(02:53):
feel as though you could do. You could always go
out there and give massive energy, and that's something that
we're not doing.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Like, how is it that you were so slow to get.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Back and you give up so many fast breakpoints by
the Knicks.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I mean that's effort, man, That's all that is.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah, it was. It was not great. We got some
some comments after the game.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Oh man, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not flushing.
You don't flush when you get embarrassed. You don't flush
when you gave up one hundred and forty five points.
You don't flush when you didn't play hard, didn't play
with effort, didn't play with physicality. I'm not flushing anything tonight.
We got embarrassed. I mean, what just happened is and
let's be honest, it happened tonight for four quarters. It
(03:39):
happened in the first half against Dallas. So we're sixteen
games in and we're talking about effort, we're talking about toughness,
we're talking about physicality.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Game one in Memphis.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
I mean, this is regardless of who's in, who's out,
you know, who do we want to be as a team?
Speaker 2 (03:56):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (03:57):
So, yeah, leadership would be great, help, this would be great.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Physicality would be great. Playing like you.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
Actually care would be great, and we had We didn't
do that tonight.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Give them credit.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
They're coming off of a bad loss in Utah and
they played like it. They played urgent, physical, desperate, motivated basketball,
And we played like we won a game in La
and like we could just show up tonight.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And when you think you can do.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
That against a good team like that, that's what's going
to happen.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah, this game wasn't even close. Three minutes left to
go in the first quarter and this thing was over.
It was over by the end of the first quarter.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
It was over.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
And yeah, I mean he's got a point. You're talking
about effort this many games into the season, well, sixteen
games into the season, you're talking about effort at this point.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I mean, this is a team that's been to the championship.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
They know what it takes to get there, and you're
talking about effort at this point.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
That to me, that presents a bit of a problem. Man,
We've heard coach Malone make these comments before. I want
to say, well, coach Malone is going on to tirade. No,
he's telling the truth. He's speaking truth to power. And
some of the things that he said. He talked about
how his players performed in comparison to the Knicks players, well,
(05:13):
who came off the loss against Utah, And sometimes, you know,
we all Christians of habit, it's kind of happened to me.
You win the game and then you feel great about yourself.
We saw the same thing happen to to see you
Buffs before they face the Jayhawks, and we saw what
was the end results of that.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
But here's what I do know.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Anytime coach Malone comes out and publicly rips his team,
they often play better the next game.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
And I know.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I've had conversations with some in this market and they
think that maybe that's not the right thing to do
for a coach to rip his players in public in
the media. But once again, I always go back to
what I know, Bill Parcells.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
He didn't care.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
I feel like coach Malone has already talked to these
guys in private. I feel like that there's no way
that he's going to the public with you know, going
to public right with that every if it didn't.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Work talking to you in private, book, they're okay, okay, if.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
You're gonna get out there.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I mean, like you know, sometimes like I'm not a
big fan of.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
That public embarrassment style of leadership, but I mean it's
effective some guys. Some guys are like, man, I like that,
don't you know, and they'll go correct it.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Well, sometimes, man, I think that it's needed, right, Sometimes
it's sometimes public shaming is required, Like I mean, case
for instance, my parents, wherever you act up, that's exactly
where they're going to discipline you. And you thought they
cared about it. Nope, they say, if you're gonna act
up here. We're going to solve if there's alve these
(06:43):
issues right here. I don't care. If it's right in
front of the school with all your classmates watching, they
don't care.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I will rip your pants down on tan your backside.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Well, I don't know about going that far. Ben, that's
a little too.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
That's just me. I'm sorry. That just happened to me too.
It's weird at the time too. I don't know high
school senior in high school.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
No, oh, that would have been hilarious.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
If it was.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
But I mean, it happened to me.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
So sometimes players need that public scolding to let them
know because the one thing goes Malone said in that
bit was he talked about leadership, and you're right, Ben,
he said something to several players on that team. They've
heard this speech before, right, But coach Malone is one
of those coaches. He doesn't care. That's the thing that
(07:33):
makes him who he is. It's the reason why he
surpassed Doug mo as far as being the winnings basketball
coach for the Denver Nuggets. You know, you don't get
to four thirty three by just keeping your hands in
your pocket and go going well, man, we gave it
our best shot and maybe we'll get him tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Hell no, that's not how that happens.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
No, and again I revert to this team has been
to the NBA Championship and won it.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
They know what it takes.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
And I think you know that the effort that you
saw against New York Knicks on your home court the
other day was not that level of effort.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
But once again you said the Nuggets did with a
championship right. Once again going through these cycles of coach
Malone calling them up. Remember in the bubble, Yeah, where
they were down to two teams three to one. He
called them up and they rallied. They finally, after forty
seven years, won Lever of Brian Trophy. But do you
(08:27):
think it is one of those things that we constantly
hear about where teams win a championship and then they kind.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Of pulled back a little. Do you think that's happening
with the Nuggets.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I mean, it could be a fat and happy type situation.
I think part of this is the fact you're missing
Aaron Gordon, who is a large piece of what you do.
I mean, he is your most versatile defender. He is
an animal underneath in terms of rebounding, and he provides
you a physicality that some of these other guys don't.
Peyton Watson will come into his own, but he's no
Aaron Gordon, He's not. And so you know, I think
(08:56):
that there's I think there's a little bit to that.
You know, Christian Brown has has been a pretty good
as a starting guard, but there's.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Been some off nights. There's been some nights and there's been.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Some matchups where especially if you get somebody you talked
about earlier, somebody can cuts the basket.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
You got somebody who cuts the basket and Broad that's
been his liability. You know, if you gotta cutting.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Guard that can get to the hoop, you know they
can drive to the rack, that's been a liability for
him thus far. Strawther, you know, is just a scoring
specialist who has not gotten it going as much as
he needs to. Four points in twenty two minutes is unacceptable.
Four points If you're a scoring specialist, you're a shooter.
Your job is to get out there and score four
points in twenty two minutes fifty one seconds is unacceptable.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
So when you think about it once again, I go
back to the fact that Coast Malone brought brought up leadership.
How much of this is on Jamal Murray and his
leadership and Nicola Jokids.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I mean, I think Nicola is a laid back leader.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I think he's a guy that kind of lets you
be yourself and and and you know that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
But you need somebody who is fiery.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
You need somebody who is going to be that guy,
and you need somebody who's going to hold people accountable.
And I worry Nicola, for all that he does incredibly well,
is not that guy. Maybe that's why Malone has to
go to the public route with this, because he doesn't.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Feel that the senior leadership on this team is.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Able to hold those guys accountable for effort and or
productivity issues that they're not having.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
I like the thing when he talks about leadership, he's
not talking about Nicola. He's not because you know what
Nicola is going to do night in and night out.
Just think about a couple of those games that Nicola
was away from the team due to personal reason, and
Jamal Murray had to step into that row as the
bona Fide meter, and we saw the Nuggets not play
(10:40):
as well. Then we saw the Nuggets come on you
right before Nicola came back, and we saw them win
a game with Nicola in the lineup. But to me,
this is the case where Jamal has to step up
in this moment because we know the NBA season is
a long season.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Guys are gonna get injured.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Luckily and fortunately for the Nuggets, Nikola Yoki hasn't hit
one of those Joel and be kind of injury type
of hurdles knock on wood here. But if that were
to happened, I mean, the heavy bird is gonna fall
on the shoulders of Jamal.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Can't he lead?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Can he be that guy with all the pressure on
him being able to get everyone else involved.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
But here's the other thing, and I listened this earlier.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
The assists see we're used to the ball distribution by
the Denver Nuggets getting everyone else involved. When it shows
us though that the Knicks dominates dominated you and the Cysts,
that means for me, there was more of that ISO basketball.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Right.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
You get trapped in the corner.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Now you got to hoist up a shot with the
shot cut, you know, bailing down.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
So they gotta figure out something.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
The combination of Michael Porter Junior, Peyton Watson and Julia
and Strawther ended with one assist between the three of them,
which means possessions are ending with them when.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
They get the ball.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
And when you look at the Peyton Watson six points,
Strowther four points, that's not a good thing.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Possession shouldn't be ending with you if you're not scoring.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
No, it shouldn't.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
And for me, if I could take a silver lining
out of this game that they lost, it's that you
hope that all of these guys who are getting playing
time that at some point it pays dividends once Aaron
Gordon comes back, because you just can't say, well, we're
(12:23):
gonna look at the season and we'll be much better
once ag comes back. No, we know what the team
is like when Gordon is in the lineup. But the
players who are on the floor right now, they have
to come back and they have to put this game
behind them and show that they can bounce back.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Because they got two road.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Games, one in Utah and one against the Clippers, right
they have to.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
It'll be great if they take both of those games.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Utah will get right game or it should be well, well,
it should be Well, you.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
Mean, I thought the Knicks game was gonna be a
get right game, but that didn't prove to be.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, forty five assists later by the New York next Yeah,
I mean it was they were slinging the ball around
it will a large portion that was jay Len Bronson
and he had seventeen assists in the game.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
He's so good.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
But once again, you gotta think about it, even though
this is kind of early in the NBA season when
he started to look ahead and say, okay, well, as
the season started to join, do down. After all Star,
you're gotta be playing superior guards just like this, and
you just can't allow those guys to kind of dominate.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
And you can always say, well, it's.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Aaron Goin is not there. I don't want to hear
that crack. Someone else got to step up. So someone's
got to defend the other team's best guards, because the
whole idea is that, well, Russell Westbrook is here, maybe
try to give Jamal Murray somewhat of a break, but
he's gonna have to end up being better defensively himself.
Speaker 6 (13:43):
Do you guys want to hear some good news from
an early college basketball season? Game from our very own
Mark Johnson, Yes, I do.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
Down to tawn steps back, Kilder, drible tawaiky Yakamowski down
to seven dries Yakamoskin as one of the hoop off
the window.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
He hit the shot Colorado on top point one.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Zie point nine seconds, trimating Caravan to trigger the ball
in buffs and Amanda Man, they play it out top Diara.
He splits the double team, dribbles out that the might
hatchside down to three fires at three shot walker leave
out tipped in the air.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Hits on about HiT's on a bouts the games sober
down goes number two.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Holl like cow, what a win here in Malley seventy three,
seventy two.
Speaker 7 (14:26):
It's paradise for the buffalos here in the islands.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Right between the art kidding. Mark Johnson of the Call
loved that. Yeah see you Buffs knock it off, you
got of it.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Dan Hurtley was super happy about that. He's uh, he's
having a rough tournament.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Man.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
He had a tobacco against Memphis in their first game
in the Maui Invitational, fell to his knees, got a
technical that cost his team the game, and then they
lost again to the Buffs.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Today was again.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
I mean, emotions are definitely part of the game, and
how many times have we seen coaches getting on players
telling them they have to understand the moment and they
have to control their emotions. But once you see you
see your coach do something like that ends up in
the tech and you lose the game because of that.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
How do you go to the locker room and talk
to your teams afterwards? What do you say to your team?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Saw dudes. Yeah, that's exactly what we have to say
right now. That's not me. That's a loss that I'll
chalk up to myself.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
So no, no, that's some tough guys. If you guys
did what you was supposed to, I would have had
to drop to my knees to get the tech.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Yeah, if you guys had just scored bore, my technical
wouldn't have mattered.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
I think it gets a little more leeway after winning
back to back national championships.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Yeah, but still you gotta take accountability for that. Yeah,
I hinted a rough one. Hey, yeah, look and see you,
Buffs man.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
They dropped off a rough game against Michigan State and
they turn around and beat you con something I don't
think many of us expected here, and then they're playing
here tomorrow night tomorrow during the afternoon here twelve thirty against.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
Either Dayton or Iowa State. I think that game is
still being played tonight.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Okay, well, that's a big game, big win for tag Boyle.
I mean, in fact, you'd be the number two country
team in the country. That's got to be a boost
of confidence for they see you that young CEU A
bus basketball team for sure.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah, I think so it's a shot in the arm
that I think that I think they needed, especially that.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Was a rough game against Michigan State.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
So getting that getting that CEU, I mean, getting that
Yukon win and you can kind of, uh, you feel
like you can kind of hang with anybody at that point.
Getting that kind of win on a neutral court like that,
I think that's I think it'll.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Go a long way.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
We got a break, we come back see NFL six

with that anything further, Let's get into the NFL six.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
What linebacker Drew Sanders is back on the fifty three
man roster in Denver Broncos now.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Sanders was activated from the physically unable to perform list today.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
The twenty twenty three third round pick has spent the
entire season recovering from a torn achilles he suffered this offseason.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Sanders reached the end of his.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Twenty one day practice windows the Broncos had activate him
or shut him down for the season. I mean day
he should be bringing more word about whether he's ready
to resume a role. On game day, Sanders played seventeen games,
made four starts as a rookie, twenty four tackles, a
fumble recovery. In those appearances, Broncos also waved guard to
Calvin Throckmorton.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Was that a surprise to you that they activated Drew Sanders, No, it.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Wasn't, because it was one of those things you felt
as though it was coming after they freed the Ross's
squat after allowing uh, Greg doses give him his walking favors.
So it's been something they've been leading up too. But
he's going to be really important. They are able to get,
(18:04):
you know, Sanders on the field before the season is over,
to just kind of get a better assessment of who
he is going into twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay, Yeah, And for me.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I was like, well, it looked pretty sad at the
edge rush rotation. Maybe they save some of these call
ups as far as the rest of that stuff goes
for some of these other guys in case they o
they're just But now they went ahead and brought him up.
So Drew Sanders on the fifty three two you mentioned
Greg dulcic I mentioned on last night's show that I
thought that he might go to Carolina or New York,
and he did, in fact wind up in New York,
(18:34):
just the other New York as the New York Giants,
who had third waiver claim priority, put a claim in
ahead of the Jets, and the Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Giants put aziz O.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
J lai on the ir Ohja Laiy will have to
miss the next four games. The Giants only have six
games left, so there's likely a chance he's done for
the season. That turns out to be the case, Lauria
might have played final snaps with the Giants the twenty
twenty one second round picks on track for free agency
in twenty twenty five, which Lauriy had twenty eight tel,
six sacks, ten QB hits on a fumble recovery, and
his eleventh appearances this season, the Giants corse claimed Greg
(19:06):
Dulsch off waivers. Dulcich was dropped by the Broncos on Monday.
What do we think about Greg Dulston shows a New
York Giant.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Well, I would tell you more about that once I
see Drew Lott bro pass to Greg.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Dolsons because you're getting ahead of me here, But I
didn't realize that it was. But I know the Vito
has some injuries. He may not play this weekend.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
So for me, I'm rooting for both of these guys
to go out there and perform.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Well. Three Well, I'll since you jumped right to it.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
If Daniel Jones is about the team's money not football,
the other players care about football, not the team's money,
and it has sparked a mini mutiny with multiple players
unwilling to bite their tongues about the decision to sit
Jones or the perceived lack of effort on Sunday. The
lack of efforts shouldn't be surprising if management doesn't care
about put the team in the best position to win.
Watch it the players enter Drew Luck, Tommy DeVito the
(19:57):
injury report for Monday's nonpractice at advance of the thirdsday's game
at Dallas, before showing up as limited today with a write.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
For arm injury.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
The foundation is now in place to play the quarterback
who should have gotten the nod when Daniel Jones was benched.
If the depth chart indeed meant anything, be interesting to
see what other embarrassing loss might mean for the Giants.
Co owner John Mara has said he doesn't anticipate making
any big changes during or after the season. After the
thirty to seven post buy loss to the Buccaneers, becoming
(20:25):
the first team to lose in Dallas this season could
be the final straw.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Playing lock over to Veto. If that happens, might be
the best and only chance to avoid that kind of disaster.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
That could prompt Mara to hit the reset button as
soon as Friday. Should Drew lock up in the quarter there?
Back there all along? Should it be the quarterback there now?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
And are we more.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Excited about a lock the Dulcitch combination as we view
the Broncos New York.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Well, to answer your first question, damn right, Drew likes
to have been been the quarterback. And to answer your
second question, yes, I would love to see a connection one.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Former Bronco to another form of Bronco.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
And wouldn't it be great if those two guys can
go out and really show and display on Thanksgiving? But
they were truly capable of and may not have been
given the time or there was a lack of confidence
on their part that prevented them from being those types
of players. So I vote for every player to be successful,
but especially those who for some reason are not with
(21:24):
their former team, So how can you not root for Drew.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Lock and Greg Dose.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
We were denied at October, but he could have it.
Drew simber to remember there in New York. I'm looking
forward to hopefully seeing Drew Lock strap the backpack on
one more time with the New York Giants.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
It's my quarterback.
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Four.
Speaker 8 (21:42):
Surprised by Shaq Barrett's unretirement, Mike McDaniel says he needs
to talk to Chris Greer pass rusher. Shaq Barrett wants
to emerge from retirement. The Dolphins ultimately will have to
decide whether to put him back on the active roster
or release him from Mark Kelly of the Miami Harold coach.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
McDaniels said Tuesday he was surprised.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
By the news, and I got to talk to GM
Chris's career first, adding he hasn't spoke to Barrett about
his decision to unretire. Will the Dolphins be open to
his return? There's the reason you signed someone, McDaniel said,
I haven't had a chance to think about it. I'll
give a Chris and we'll work through that. There are
a ton of implications to go through that with the
team and roster stuff for starters. They need to make
a roster move to create a spot for Barrett, and
(22:19):
then he'd have to land in a spot on the
depth chart.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Would he be healthy ready to go? Would he need
time to get ready?
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Reinstatement from retirement is an automatic thing, but reinstatement to
the Dolphins is not. Again, I'm gonna have to decide
what to do. Open the door, keep it shut. He'd
then have to pass through waivers. If unclaimed, he'd be
a free agent.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Let him go.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
A nine year veteran, Barrett, of course, has won a
pair of Super Bowls, the Broncos in twenty fifteen the
Bucks in twenty twenty fifty nine career sacks with a
high of nineteen and a half all the way back
in twenty nineteen, Barrett retired on the Dolphins after signing
a one year deal with them prior to the start
of the season, and now has decided he wants back
in as the Miami Dolphins look like they're ramping back
(22:56):
up for a playoff run.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Would you in the locker room once shack Barrett back?
Speaker 4 (23:01):
Yeah, I mean, obviously, you want as many weapons in
your arsenal as you can and just think about it too.
Speaker 6 (23:08):
Now.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
I think in that time that Shack Barrett's signed that
deal with the Dolphins, he lost his young daughter and
the pool listener. So that would have a profound effect
on anyone and make you question how much more time
you need to spend around your family. But if he
wants to get back into football and there's an opportunity
because this allows him to take his mind off it,
I say, Miami Dolphins, if you can create a spot
(23:30):
and he's in shape.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Why not.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
There are a lot of people that were upset that
the Broncos let Shack Barrett walk.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
It couldn't afford him obviously.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
At the time he went to the Bucks, he had
a career year and it seemed to kind of vindicate
them that they let Shack Barrett walk.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Let those people do.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
But he's not been the same since then. Do you
think that Shack Barrett provides that kind of value to Miami,
Well he could well. Once again, you never know.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
What motivates a player, and sometimes spending time away from
the game home with family remotivation. It can not to
say that you don't like the fact of being home,
but you realize how much you missed the game, and
I root for shagging. This is a possibility for him
to get back on the field and actually makes some
real change.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
I am all four Jack Barrett.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Last season sixteen game, sixteen starts for the Tampa Bay
Buccaneers only four and a half sacks. Three sacks in
the year before that twenty twenty one though, he had
a Pro Bowl at a ten sax season, so not
too far removed from top tier productivity.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Who knows, maybe a refocus might give the thirty two
year old something, you know, get back in the game,
as far as that goes.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
Five.
Speaker 8 (24:32):
Baker Mayfield is suing his father's companies for breach of
eleven point seven million dollars settlement agreement.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
When an NFL player strikes it rich comes with a
serious challenge. How do you protect the money that he
has made?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Bucks quarterback Baker Mayfield and trusted twelve million dollars to
investment firms link to his father. Signs of trouble first
emerged back in August of last year, with Mayfield and
his wife Emily, filed a petition seeking information regarding the
possible misappropriation of twelve million.
Speaker 8 (24:59):
The petitioners simply not know if their money has been
properly and competently invested, or if it's been stolen, otherwise misappropriate,
or something in between. The original filely explained the effort
led to a settlement agreement and the amount of eleven
point seven million dollars, but the payments allegedly haven't been made,
so the Mayfields had done the only thing they could
sue for their money. Via Margaret Fleming in Front Office
(25:19):
Sports baker Emily Mayfield file suit last week in Texas
Federal Court for breach of settlement agreement.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
The defendants are Camwood Capital Management Group, Texas Contracting Manufacturing Group,
UNITEC Tool and Machine, Apex Machining, and lore Van Manufacturing.
Mayfield's brother is named in the suit as the director
of Camwood Capital Management Group. Once the PLANEFFS began to
uncover the defendant's misconduct and sought answers to explain the
taking of their assets, the defendants attempted to obscure the
(25:46):
revelant irrelevant information, avoiding PLANEFFS inquiries, and invented fictional explanations
for their abstudents. The nine page complaint alleges the effort
led to an alleged agreement to pay the eleven point
seven the settlement. The first payment, two hundred fifty thousand
was due September thirtieth, it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Made per the lawsuit.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
The lawsuit demands payments of the money plus interest and
attorney's fees for settlement is agreed. Agreement is indeed negotiated,
and it'll be pretty easy to prove its existence.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
This case is a no brainer.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
The biggest hurdle could come from collecting on the judgment
if the money is simply gone. Obviously, the entire situation
stinks and underscores the risks of trusting the wrong people
with the millions that come from NFL player contracts, even
if it is immediate family members.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Trusting with the cash that you've earned, man, this is
always tough and tricky, and this is why my dad
would always tell me that, hey, man, the one group
of people that puts you into poor house the classes
are the ones who are your family members, and you're
so trusting up individuals because when you enter into business contracts,
(26:48):
sometimes there are contracts that are not signed, this kind
of verbal contract between you and your family members. But
this is more of a reason why one should actually
start paying more attention, and as individual who have been
has been burned by family members and friends based on
monetary situations.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
It's always triggered because they said blood is thinking of water.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
But sometimes when you inser those legal tender, those dead presidents,
it sages everything.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Trust me, I know ink is thicker than blood.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Yes, yes, as someone who has done uh, who's done business,
who's done business before.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
That, that is uh, that's exactly exactly what what you want.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
You want an iron clad agreement that's going to have uh,
that's gonna have the ink dry on the paper, delineating
all this kind of stuff out. You definitely do not
want to get into business with uh, with family members
without some kind of iron cloud legal legal framework.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Sick Mike McCarthy responds to Jerry Jones saying it's not
crazy to think you might get a new deal.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has to answer multiple questions about
Mike McCarthy's in season job security this season. On Tuesday,
Jones was asked whether it's crazy to consider McCarthy might
receive a contract extension the end of the season. Jones
said it was quick, not crazy. Later, McCarthy was asked
for his thoughts that the owner didn't rule out the
coaching tenure lasting beyond.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
This season, and he said, why are you laughing crazy?
I mean to more laughter.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
McCarthy is in the final year of a contract, as
the rest of the coaching stab, with all of them
having uncertain futures. McCarthy said, I really haven't talked about
all the year. So I'm definitely not gonna start a
short week in an Apartment Division game. But I'm not
gonna throw away positive vibes either.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Keep them coming. That's all good. It's not something I'm
really focused on.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Cowboys broke their five game losing streaks Sunday to an
upset of the Commanders. They are favored over the Giants
on Thanksgiving Day. I always have games against the Bengals
and Panthers. Remaining wins against the Giants, Bengals, and Panthers,
and gets the Cowboys back to five hundred, which is
why Jones declared that this thing isn't over.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
Well, I'll say this, there are some things that you
can look at if you're Jerry Jones and say, well,
we got Dak was injured. You look at Michael Parson,
he was injured for a significant amount of time, Brandon Cooks,
wide receiver, he was injured, Tallas Smith was injured, Jake Fergus,
and DeMarcus Lawrence. I mean, it's kind of a mass
unit of players, and how can you get a true
(29:02):
I guess he has put your finger on exactly what
this team was capable of with some of the guys
being injured. So it wouldn't be wrong for McCarthy to
come back. And I know most people think that's crazy.
It will be a crazy thing about Jerry Jones, but
more sometimes you gotta stick with guys. You have to
try to work through it and see how it works
out for you and your team. Because if you continue
(29:23):
to cut ties with quarterbacks, cut ties with head coaches,
you're just only hitting the reset button over and over again.
And how many times have we seen this where teams
like the Cleveland Browns keep moving quarterbacks out of the lineup,
getting rid of quarterbacks and then going to try to
get different types of coaches. You never developed any chemistry.
(29:45):
So if this is what Jerry Jones wants to do,
what the hell else does to tell Jerry Jones.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
What to do?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yeah, I mean, Jerry oons the team. He's gonna do
what he wants to do, goes. Mike McCarthy could be
a dead met walking.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
I believe that he is.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
I know that the Cowboys some background work, uh or
you know, going out there and looking at.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
There's some other specifically Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
But I don't believe that that's going to happen simply
because I think, uh, Will McLay, who is basically the you.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Know, the de facto general manager. Jerry Jones is the GM.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
But Will McLay handles all the responsibilities that Jerry doesn't.
You know, I don't think they want to reduce his
footprint on the organization. Will mcclay's been pretty goodt his job.
You know, Steve and Jerry that have kind of been
the vote anchors. And I don't think you want to
bring Bill Belichick in, who's gonna want to clean house
and consolidate power.
Speaker 4 (30:31):
Well, again, if you were to do that, how much
does it change what's happened with the team? Right? And
then you have to ask you so, if you're Jeffy
Jones or in your accountlish fan, if the team was
at full capacity, would the outcome of the season.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Be any different?
Speaker 6 (30:47):
Now?
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Are there subtle changes?
Speaker 4 (30:48):
That Jeffy Jones has to make himself as far as
trying to make this team more competitive.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Yes, they need to go out and get a reliable
running back.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
And it's crazy that they did have an opportunity to
get Derrick Henry, who wanted to be there to come
to Dallas because he has a home and offseason in Dawns,
and that didn't happen. I'm sure after the season that
Jerry Jones is gonna look at it and said, well,
there's some things that we could have done different and
I could have helped out coach McCarthy as well.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Yeah, I do expect Dallas to make a coaching change,
whatever you think of whatever is going on there. I
think they've reached their ceiling with this group and that
coaching staff, and it feels like, you know, maybe resetting.
You've got the players in place, You've got Dak, you've
got Ceedee Lamb in place. You need to do some
other retooling on that offense, specifically with you know, you
mentioned the running back position and in the defense, you're
gonna have to completely turn that over. It was great
(31:37):
when dan Quinn was there and he was masking some
of the vulnerabilities of it, but you can clearly see
you're gonna have to pay Michael Parsons not sure you can.
And the style that they run on defense is not
working with Mike Zimmer there running the defense.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Well. Also remember this that you know one of their
top corners who I think he had like six return
touchdowns on Iron T's last season, he was he has
been out for a success amount of time. So that
affects your defense, and it affects your pass rush.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
And DeMarcus Lawrence and Michael.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Parson wasn't there for a significant amount of time.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
That hurts you as well.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
So try to run it back and look, if Mike
McCarthy is a coach, hey see what happens.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
But we know Darry is really sporadic and anything can happen.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
And it's it's interesting.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
You'll know, Jerry I'll want to make a splashy higher
at the head coach position. If he does, he'll want
to He'll want to do something that that feels like
a big move. He's got that whole, you know, P T.
Barnum kind of thing going on. I am told that
the Deon Sanders stuff is absolute malarkey. That's not a
thing that's being considered on the Dallas side of the
house at all.
Speaker 4 (32:38):
Well, I mean, if I'm Dion, I wouldn't consider it
on his side.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Of the said, I'm not even talking about that.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
I talked to somebody who would know down there in
Dallas and they're like, that has not even been that
has never been discussed, and he's not going to be discussed.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
That is not on our radar.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Shade is going through the Raiders.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Come on, he yeah, come on, we arequare to know,
we're not kidding ourselves.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Does that make him a villain here in Colorado a
little bit?
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Only when he plays the Broncos?
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Okay, just interesting to see what that dynamic is, you know,
winds up being as far as that goes, I'm here
for money, time to talk about that. You listen to
the Broncos country night, but you're not get away.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
M hmmmmmmm hm
Welcome to it Broncos Country tonight. But with all Bride,
(00:02):
Dick Ferguson, Grant Smith, Heali, the Knicks absolutely handed it
to the Denver Nuggets one forty five to one eighteen
on their home court, and absolute lamb basting of the
Denver Nuggets, who were nine and seven oge Or Nabi
forty up, the forty Burger Karl Anthony Towell thirty points,
(00:25):
fifteen boards, Chalen Brunson twenty.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Three points, seventeen assists.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Guys like Miles McBride Cameron Payne were getting in on
the action at double figures. It was an absolute beat
down from the Knicks. Who I you know, I think
they're a better basketball team than people think, but they're
not one hundred and forty points against the Denver Nuggets good,
are they?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
No, they're not.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
But sometimes the giving of things comes a lot early
as the Nuggets became the feasts for the New York Knickerbockers.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
And the one thing that kind of got me.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Because I watched the Nuggets sometimes they in their two
three zone and if you have a guard that can
penetrate and get into paint, they kind of collapse.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
And if you were able to kick.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
It out to those your your wing players, and if
those guys can consistently knock down the three point shot,
it puts the Nuggets behind the eight ball. And that's
exactly what the New York Knicks Ashley did because well,
when when you look at the stat lines, the Nuggets
were dominating and assists, fast break points, defensive rebounds. They
(01:31):
shot from thirty percent from three, and they were slow
getting back on defense. I mean, you look at the
number of players in double figures. The Leaks had seven,
the Nuggets had five. And look, let's get credit where
credit is due. Russell Westbrook in four for seven from
three point land and twenty four points. But Ogian Andobi,
(01:53):
I mean, this was a career high for him.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
They could not stop him because I'm.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Sure he's going to find a to try to duplicate
whatever he ate, how he slept, whatever music he listened to,
because that dude could not miss a shot.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
It might have to change his name from Og to
triple Og because he was It was ridiculous, ludicrous. He
was sitting there just did I mean, just put it
to a forty points, just put it to him.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
It was bad.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Brother.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
The Nuggets have got to get more production out of
whoever is going to be filling in for Aaron Gordon Payton.
Watson finished with six points and twenty two minutes, Julius
Strother four points in twenty three minutes. You've got to
get more offensive productivity out of those two players.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah, you definitely have to.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
And if you're coach Malone, you're a little upset about
how your team performed, you know, at home, and sometimes
it's all about energy. Are you able to supply the
energy that's required to go out there and compete? Right?
Sometimes you may not be as talented, or you may
have an off night. But the one thing I always
(02:53):
feel as though you could do. You could always go
out there and give massive energy, and that's something that
we're not doing.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Like, how is it that you were so slow to get.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Back and you give up so many fast breakpoints by
the Knicks.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I mean that's effort, man, That's all that is.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah, it was. It was not great. We got some
some comments after the game.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Oh man, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not flushing.
You don't flush when you get embarrassed. You don't flush
when you gave up one hundred and forty five points.
You don't flush when you didn't play hard, didn't play
with effort, didn't play with physicality. I'm not flushing anything tonight.
We got embarrassed. I mean, what just happened is and
let's be honest, it happened tonight for four quarters. It
(03:39):
happened in the first half against Dallas. So we're sixteen
games in and we're talking about effort, we're talking about toughness,
we're talking about physicality.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Game one in Memphis.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
I mean, this is regardless of who's in, who's out,
you know, who do we want to be as a team?
Speaker 2 (03:56):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (03:57):
So, yeah, leadership would be great, help, this would be great.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Physicality would be great. Playing like you.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
Actually care would be great, and we had We didn't
do that tonight.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Give them credit.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
They're coming off of a bad loss in Utah and
they played like it. They played urgent, physical, desperate, motivated basketball,
And we played like we won a game in La
and like we could just show up tonight.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And when you think you can do.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
That against a good team like that, that's what's going
to happen.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah, this game wasn't even close. Three minutes left to
go in the first quarter and this thing was over.
It was over by the end of the first quarter.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
It was over.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
And yeah, I mean he's got a point. You're talking
about effort this many games into the season, well, sixteen
games into the season, you're talking about effort at this point.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I mean, this is a team that's been to the championship.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
They know what it takes to get there, and you're
talking about effort at this point.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
That to me, that presents a bit of a problem. Man,
We've heard coach Malone make these comments before. I want
to say, well, coach Malone is going on to tirade. No,
he's telling the truth. He's speaking truth to power. And
some of the things that he said. He talked about
how his players performed in comparison to the Knicks players, well,
(05:13):
who came off the loss against Utah, And sometimes, you know,
we all Christians of habit, it's kind of happened to me.
You win the game and then you feel great about yourself.
We saw the same thing happen to to see you
Buffs before they face the Jayhawks, and we saw what
was the end results of that.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
But here's what I do know.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Anytime coach Malone comes out and publicly rips his team,
they often play better the next game.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
And I know.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I've had conversations with some in this market and they
think that maybe that's not the right thing to do
for a coach to rip his players in public in
the media. But once again, I always go back to
what I know, Bill Parcells.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
He didn't care.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
I feel like coach Malone has already talked to these
guys in private. I feel like that there's no way
that he's going to the public with you know, going
to public right with that every if it didn't.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Work talking to you in private, book, they're okay, okay, if.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
You're gonna get out there.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I mean, like you know, sometimes like I'm not a
big fan of.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
That public embarrassment style of leadership, but I mean it's
effective some guys. Some guys are like, man, I like that,
don't you know, and they'll go correct it.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Well, sometimes, man, I think that it's needed, right, Sometimes
it's sometimes public shaming is required, Like I mean, case
for instance, my parents, wherever you act up, that's exactly
where they're going to discipline you. And you thought they
cared about it. Nope, they say, if you're gonna act
up here. We're going to solve if there's alve these
(06:43):
issues right here. I don't care. If it's right in
front of the school with all your classmates watching, they
don't care.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I will rip your pants down on tan your backside.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Well, I don't know about going that far. Ben, that's
a little too.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
That's just me. I'm sorry. That just happened to me too.
It's weird at the time too. I don't know high
school senior in high school.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
No, oh, that would have been hilarious.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
If it was.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
But I mean, it happened to me.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
So sometimes players need that public scolding to let them
know because the one thing goes Malone said in that
bit was he talked about leadership, and you're right, Ben,
he said something to several players on that team. They've
heard this speech before, right, But coach Malone is one
of those coaches. He doesn't care. That's the thing that
(07:33):
makes him who he is. It's the reason why he
surpassed Doug mo as far as being the winnings basketball
coach for the Denver Nuggets. You know, you don't get
to four thirty three by just keeping your hands in
your pocket and go going well, man, we gave it
our best shot and maybe we'll get him tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Hell no, that's not how that happens.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
No, and again I revert to this team has been
to the NBA Championship and won it.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
They know what it takes.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
And I think you know that the effort that you
saw against New York Knicks on your home court the
other day was not that level of effort.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
But once again you said the Nuggets did with a
championship right. Once again going through these cycles of coach
Malone calling them up. Remember in the bubble, Yeah, where
they were down to two teams three to one. He
called them up and they rallied. They finally, after forty
seven years, won Lever of Brian Trophy. But do you
(08:27):
think it is one of those things that we constantly
hear about where teams win a championship and then they kind.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Of pulled back a little. Do you think that's happening
with the Nuggets.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I mean, it could be a fat and happy type situation.
I think part of this is the fact you're missing
Aaron Gordon, who is a large piece of what you do.
I mean, he is your most versatile defender. He is
an animal underneath in terms of rebounding, and he provides
you a physicality that some of these other guys don't.
Peyton Watson will come into his own, but he's no
Aaron Gordon, He's not. And so you know, I think
(08:56):
that there's I think there's a little bit to that.
You know, Christian Brown has has been a pretty good
as a starting guard, but there's.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Been some off nights. There's been some nights and there's been.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Some matchups where especially if you get somebody you talked
about earlier, somebody can cuts the basket.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
You got somebody who cuts the basket and Broad that's
been his liability. You know, if you gotta cutting.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Guard that can get to the hoop, you know they
can drive to the rack, that's been a liability for
him thus far. Strawther, you know, is just a scoring
specialist who has not gotten it going as much as
he needs to. Four points in twenty two minutes is unacceptable.
Four points If you're a scoring specialist, you're a shooter.
Your job is to get out there and score four
points in twenty two minutes fifty one seconds is unacceptable.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
So when you think about it once again, I go
back to the fact that Coast Malone brought brought up leadership.
How much of this is on Jamal Murray and his
leadership and Nicola Jokids.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I mean, I think Nicola is a laid back leader.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I think he's a guy that kind of lets you
be yourself and and and you know that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
But you need somebody who is fiery.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
You need somebody who is going to be that guy,
and you need somebody who's going to hold people accountable.
And I worry Nicola, for all that he does incredibly well,
is not that guy. Maybe that's why Malone has to
go to the public route with this, because he doesn't.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Feel that the senior leadership on this team is.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Able to hold those guys accountable for effort and or
productivity issues that they're not having.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
I like the thing when he talks about leadership, he's
not talking about Nicola. He's not because you know what
Nicola is going to do night in and night out.
Just think about a couple of those games that Nicola
was away from the team due to personal reason, and
Jamal Murray had to step into that row as the
bona Fide meter, and we saw the Nuggets not play
(10:40):
as well. Then we saw the Nuggets come on you
right before Nicola came back, and we saw them win
a game with Nicola in the lineup. But to me,
this is the case where Jamal has to step up
in this moment because we know the NBA season is
a long season.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Guys are gonna get injured.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Luckily and fortunately for the Nuggets, Nikola Yoki hasn't hit
one of those Joel and be kind of injury type
of hurdles knock on wood here. But if that were
to happened, I mean, the heavy bird is gonna fall
on the shoulders of Jamal.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Can't he lead?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Can he be that guy with all the pressure on
him being able to get everyone else involved.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
But here's the other thing, and I listened this earlier.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
The assists see we're used to the ball distribution by
the Denver Nuggets getting everyone else involved. When it shows
us though that the Knicks dominates dominated you and the Cysts,
that means for me, there was more of that ISO basketball.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Right.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
You get trapped in the corner.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Now you got to hoist up a shot with the
shot cut, you know, bailing down.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
So they gotta figure out something.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
The combination of Michael Porter Junior, Peyton Watson and Julia
and Strawther ended with one assist between the three of them,
which means possessions are ending with them when.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
They get the ball.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
And when you look at the Peyton Watson six points,
Strowther four points, that's not a good thing.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Possession shouldn't be ending with you if you're not scoring.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
No, it shouldn't.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
And for me, if I could take a silver lining
out of this game that they lost, it's that you
hope that all of these guys who are getting playing
time that at some point it pays dividends once Aaron
Gordon comes back, because you just can't say, well, we're
(12:23):
gonna look at the season and we'll be much better
once ag comes back. No, we know what the team
is like when Gordon is in the lineup. But the
players who are on the floor right now, they have
to come back and they have to put this game
behind them and show that they can bounce back.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Because they got two road.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Games, one in Utah and one against the Clippers, right
they have to.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
It'll be great if they take both of those games.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Utah will get right game or it should be well, well,
it should be Well, you.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
Mean, I thought the Knicks game was gonna be a
get right game, but that didn't prove to be.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, forty five assists later by the New York next Yeah,
I mean it was they were slinging the ball around
it will a large portion that was jay Len Bronson
and he had seventeen assists in the game.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
He's so good.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
But once again, you gotta think about it, even though
this is kind of early in the NBA season when
he started to look ahead and say, okay, well, as
the season started to join, do down. After all Star,
you're gotta be playing superior guards just like this, and
you just can't allow those guys to kind of dominate.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
And you can always say, well, it's.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Aaron Goin is not there. I don't want to hear
that crack. Someone else got to step up. So someone's
got to defend the other team's best guards, because the
whole idea is that, well, Russell Westbrook is here, maybe
try to give Jamal Murray somewhat of a break, but
he's gonna have to end up being better defensively himself.
Speaker 6 (13:43):
Do you guys want to hear some good news from
an early college basketball season? Game from our very own
Mark Johnson, Yes, I do.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
Down to tawn steps back, Kilder, drible tawaiky Yakamowski down
to seven dries Yakamoskin as one of the hoop off
the window.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
He hit the shot Colorado on top point one.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Zie point nine seconds, trimating Caravan to trigger the ball
in buffs and Amanda Man, they play it out top Diara.
He splits the double team, dribbles out that the might
hatchside down to three fires at three shot walker leave
out tipped in the air.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Hits on about HiT's on a bouts the games sober
down goes number two.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Holl like cow, what a win here in Malley seventy three,
seventy two.
Speaker 7 (14:26):
It's paradise for the buffalos here in the islands.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Right between the art kidding. Mark Johnson of the Call
loved that. Yeah see you Buffs knock it off, you
got of it.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Dan Hurtley was super happy about that. He's uh, he's
having a rough tournament.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Man.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
He had a tobacco against Memphis in their first game
in the Maui Invitational, fell to his knees, got a
technical that cost his team the game, and then they
lost again to the Buffs.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Today was again.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
I mean, emotions are definitely part of the game, and
how many times have we seen coaches getting on players
telling them they have to understand the moment and they
have to control their emotions. But once you see you
see your coach do something like that ends up in
the tech and you lose the game because of that.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
How do you go to the locker room and talk
to your teams afterwards? What do you say to your team?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Saw dudes. Yeah, that's exactly what we have to say
right now. That's not me. That's a loss that I'll
chalk up to myself.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
So no, no, that's some tough guys. If you guys
did what you was supposed to, I would have had
to drop to my knees to get the tech.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Yeah, if you guys had just scored bore, my technical
wouldn't have mattered.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
I think it gets a little more leeway after winning
back to back national championships.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Yeah, but still you gotta take accountability for that. Yeah,
I hinted a rough one. Hey, yeah, look and see you,
Buffs man.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
They dropped off a rough game against Michigan State and
they turn around and beat you con something I don't
think many of us expected here, and then they're playing
here tomorrow night tomorrow during the afternoon here twelve thirty against.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
Either Dayton or Iowa State. I think that game is
still being played tonight.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Okay, well, that's a big game, big win for tag Boyle.
I mean, in fact, you'd be the number two country
team in the country. That's got to be a boost
of confidence for they see you that young CEU A
bus basketball team for sure.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah, I think so it's a shot in the arm
that I think that I think they needed, especially that.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Was a rough game against Michigan State.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
So getting that getting that CEU, I mean, getting that
Yukon win and you can kind of, uh, you feel
like you can kind of hang with anybody at that point.
Getting that kind of win on a neutral court like that,
I think that's I think it'll.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Go a long way.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
We got a break, we come back see NFL six

Speaker 1 (17:06):
What linebacker Drew Sanders is back on the fifty three
man roster in Denver Broncos now.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Sanders was activated from the physically unable to perform list today.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
The twenty twenty three third round pick has spent the
entire season recovering from a torn achilles he suffered this offseason.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Sanders reached the end of his.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Twenty one day practice windows the Broncos had activate him
or shut him down for the season. I mean day
he should be bringing more word about whether he's ready
to resume a role. On game day, Sanders played seventeen games,
made four starts as a rookie, twenty four tackles, a
fumble recovery. In those appearances, Broncos also waved guard to
Calvin Throckmorton.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Was that a surprise to you that they activated Drew Sanders, No, it.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Wasn't, because it was one of those things you felt
as though it was coming after they freed the Ross's
squat after allowing uh, Greg doses give him his walking favors.
So it's been something they've been leading up too. But
he's going to be really important. They are able to get,
(18:04):
you know, Sanders on the field before the season is over,
to just kind of get a better assessment of who
he is going into twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay, Yeah, And for me.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I was like, well, it looked pretty sad at the
edge rush rotation. Maybe they save some of these call
ups as far as the rest of that stuff goes
for some of these other guys in case they o
they're just But now they went ahead and brought him up.
So Drew Sanders on the fifty three two you mentioned
Greg dulcic I mentioned on last night's show that I
thought that he might go to Carolina or New York,
and he did, in fact wind up in New York,
(18:34):
just the other New York as the New York Giants,
who had third waiver claim priority, put a claim in
ahead of the Jets, and the Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Giants put aziz O.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
J lai on the ir Ohja Laiy will have to
miss the next four games. The Giants only have six
games left, so there's likely a chance he's done for
the season. That turns out to be the case, Lauria
might have played final snaps with the Giants the twenty
twenty one second round picks on track for free agency
in twenty twenty five, which Lauriy had twenty eight tel,
six sacks, ten QB hits on a fumble recovery, and
his eleventh appearances this season, the Giants corse claimed Greg
(19:06):
Dulsch off waivers. Dulcich was dropped by the Broncos on Monday.
What do we think about Greg Dulston shows a New
York Giant.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Well, I would tell you more about that once I
see Drew Lott bro pass to Greg.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Dolsons because you're getting ahead of me here, But I
didn't realize that it was. But I know the Vito
has some injuries. He may not play this weekend.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
So for me, I'm rooting for both of these guys
to go out there and perform.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Well. Three Well, I'll since you jumped right to it.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
If Daniel Jones is about the team's money not football,
the other players care about football, not the team's money,
and it has sparked a mini mutiny with multiple players
unwilling to bite their tongues about the decision to sit
Jones or the perceived lack of effort on Sunday. The
lack of efforts shouldn't be surprising if management doesn't care
about put the team in the best position to win.
Watch it the players enter Drew Luck, Tommy DeVito the
(19:57):
injury report for Monday's nonpractice at advance of the thirdsday's game
at Dallas, before showing up as limited today with a write.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
For arm injury.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
The foundation is now in place to play the quarterback
who should have gotten the nod when Daniel Jones was benched.
If the depth chart indeed meant anything, be interesting to
see what other embarrassing loss might mean for the Giants.
Co owner John Mara has said he doesn't anticipate making
any big changes during or after the season. After the
thirty to seven post buy loss to the Buccaneers, becoming
(20:25):
the first team to lose in Dallas this season could
be the final straw.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Playing lock over to Veto. If that happens, might be
the best and only chance to avoid that kind of disaster.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
That could prompt Mara to hit the reset button as
soon as Friday. Should Drew lock up in the quarter there?
Back there all along? Should it be the quarterback there now?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
And are we more.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Excited about a lock the Dulcitch combination as we view
the Broncos New York.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Well, to answer your first question, damn right, Drew likes
to have been been the quarterback. And to answer your
second question, yes, I would love to see a connection one.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Former Bronco to another form of Bronco.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
And wouldn't it be great if those two guys can
go out and really show and display on Thanksgiving? But
they were truly capable of and may not have been
given the time or there was a lack of confidence
on their part that prevented them from being those types
of players. So I vote for every player to be successful,
but especially those who for some reason are not with
(21:24):
their former team, So how can you not root for Drew.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Lock and Greg Dose.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
We were denied at October, but he could have it.
Drew simber to remember there in New York. I'm looking
forward to hopefully seeing Drew Lock strap the backpack on
one more time with the New York Giants.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
It's my quarterback.
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Four.
Speaker 8 (21:42):
Surprised by Shaq Barrett's unretirement, Mike McDaniel says he needs
to talk to Chris Greer pass rusher. Shaq Barrett wants
to emerge from retirement. The Dolphins ultimately will have to
decide whether to put him back on the active roster
or release him from Mark Kelly of the Miami Harold coach.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
McDaniels said Tuesday he was surprised.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
By the news, and I got to talk to GM
Chris's career first, adding he hasn't spoke to Barrett about
his decision to unretire. Will the Dolphins be open to
his return? There's the reason you signed someone, McDaniel said,
I haven't had a chance to think about it. I'll
give a Chris and we'll work through that. There are
a ton of implications to go through that with the
team and roster stuff for starters. They need to make
a roster move to create a spot for Barrett, and
(22:19):
then he'd have to land in a spot on the
depth chart.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Would he be healthy ready to go? Would he need
time to get ready?
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Reinstatement from retirement is an automatic thing, but reinstatement to
the Dolphins is not. Again, I'm gonna have to decide
what to do. Open the door, keep it shut. He'd
then have to pass through waivers. If unclaimed, he'd be
a free agent.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Let him go.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
A nine year veteran, Barrett, of course, has won a
pair of Super Bowls, the Broncos in twenty fifteen the
Bucks in twenty twenty fifty nine career sacks with a
high of nineteen and a half all the way back
in twenty nineteen, Barrett retired on the Dolphins after signing
a one year deal with them prior to the start
of the season, and now has decided he wants back
in as the Miami Dolphins look like they're ramping back
(22:56):
up for a playoff run.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Would you in the locker room once shack Barrett back?
Speaker 4 (23:01):
Yeah, I mean, obviously, you want as many weapons in
your arsenal as you can and just think about it too.
Speaker 6 (23:08):
Now.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
I think in that time that Shack Barrett's signed that
deal with the Dolphins, he lost his young daughter and
the pool listener. So that would have a profound effect
on anyone and make you question how much more time
you need to spend around your family. But if he
wants to get back into football and there's an opportunity
because this allows him to take his mind off it,
I say, Miami Dolphins, if you can create a spot
(23:30):
and he's in shape.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Why not.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
There are a lot of people that were upset that
the Broncos let Shack Barrett walk.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
It couldn't afford him obviously.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
At the time he went to the Bucks, he had
a career year and it seemed to kind of vindicate
them that they let Shack Barrett walk.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Let those people do.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
But he's not been the same since then. Do you
think that Shack Barrett provides that kind of value to Miami,
Well he could well. Once again, you never know.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
What motivates a player, and sometimes spending time away from
the game home with family remotivation. It can not to
say that you don't like the fact of being home,
but you realize how much you missed the game, and
I root for shagging. This is a possibility for him
to get back on the field and actually makes some
real change.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
I am all four Jack Barrett.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Last season sixteen game, sixteen starts for the Tampa Bay
Buccaneers only four and a half sacks. Three sacks in
the year before that twenty twenty one though, he had
a Pro Bowl at a ten sax season, so not
too far removed from top tier productivity.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Who knows, maybe a refocus might give the thirty two
year old something, you know, get back in the game,
as far as that goes.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
Five.
Speaker 8 (24:32):
Baker Mayfield is suing his father's companies for breach of
eleven point seven million dollars settlement agreement.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
When an NFL player strikes it rich comes with a
serious challenge. How do you protect the money that he
has made?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Bucks quarterback Baker Mayfield and trusted twelve million dollars to
investment firms link to his father. Signs of trouble first
emerged back in August of last year, with Mayfield and
his wife Emily, filed a petition seeking information regarding the
possible misappropriation of twelve million.
Speaker 8 (24:59):
The petitioners simply not know if their money has been
properly and competently invested, or if it's been stolen, otherwise misappropriate,
or something in between. The original filely explained the effort
led to a settlement agreement and the amount of eleven
point seven million dollars, but the payments allegedly haven't been made,
so the Mayfields had done the only thing they could
sue for their money. Via Margaret Fleming in Front Office
(25:19):
Sports baker Emily Mayfield file suit last week in Texas
Federal Court for breach of settlement agreement.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
The defendants are Camwood Capital Management Group, Texas Contracting Manufacturing Group,
UNITEC Tool and Machine, Apex Machining, and lore Van Manufacturing.
Mayfield's brother is named in the suit as the director
of Camwood Capital Management Group. Once the PLANEFFS began to
uncover the defendant's misconduct and sought answers to explain the
taking of their assets, the defendants attempted to obscure the
(25:46):
revelant irrelevant information, avoiding PLANEFFS inquiries, and invented fictional explanations
for their abstudents. The nine page complaint alleges the effort
led to an alleged agreement to pay the eleven point
seven the settlement. The first payment, two hundred fifty thousand
was due September thirtieth, it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Made per the lawsuit.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
The lawsuit demands payments of the money plus interest and
attorney's fees for settlement is agreed. Agreement is indeed negotiated,
and it'll be pretty easy to prove its existence.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
This case is a no brainer.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
The biggest hurdle could come from collecting on the judgment
if the money is simply gone. Obviously, the entire situation
stinks and underscores the risks of trusting the wrong people
with the millions that come from NFL player contracts, even
if it is immediate family members.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Trusting with the cash that you've earned, man, this is
always tough and tricky, and this is why my dad
would always tell me that, hey, man, the one group
of people that puts you into poor house the classes
are the ones who are your family members, and you're
so trusting up individuals because when you enter into business contracts,
(26:48):
sometimes there are contracts that are not signed, this kind
of verbal contract between you and your family members. But
this is more of a reason why one should actually
start paying more attention, and as individual who have been
has been burned by family members and friends based on
monetary situations.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
It's always triggered because they said blood is thinking of water.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
But sometimes when you inser those legal tender, those dead presidents,
it sages everything.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Trust me, I know ink is thicker than blood.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Yes, yes, as someone who has done uh, who's done business,
who's done business before.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
That, that is uh, that's exactly exactly what what you want.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
You want an iron clad agreement that's going to have uh,
that's gonna have the ink dry on the paper, delineating
all this kind of stuff out. You definitely do not
want to get into business with uh, with family members
without some kind of iron cloud legal legal framework.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Sick Mike McCarthy responds to Jerry Jones saying it's not
crazy to think you might get a new deal.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has to answer multiple questions about
Mike McCarthy's in season job security this season. On Tuesday,
Jones was asked whether it's crazy to consider McCarthy might
receive a contract extension the end of the season. Jones
said it was quick, not crazy. Later, McCarthy was asked
for his thoughts that the owner didn't rule out the
coaching tenure lasting beyond.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
This season, and he said, why are you laughing crazy?
I mean to more laughter.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
McCarthy is in the final year of a contract, as
the rest of the coaching stab, with all of them
having uncertain futures. McCarthy said, I really haven't talked about
all the year. So I'm definitely not gonna start a
short week in an Apartment Division game. But I'm not
gonna throw away positive vibes either.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Keep them coming. That's all good. It's not something I'm
really focused on.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Cowboys broke their five game losing streaks Sunday to an
upset of the Commanders. They are favored over the Giants
on Thanksgiving Day. I always have games against the Bengals
and Panthers. Remaining wins against the Giants, Bengals, and Panthers,
and gets the Cowboys back to five hundred, which is
why Jones declared that this thing isn't over.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
Well, I'll say this, there are some things that you
can look at if you're Jerry Jones and say, well,
we got Dak was injured. You look at Michael Parson,
he was injured for a significant amount of time, Brandon Cooks,
wide receiver, he was injured, Tallas Smith was injured, Jake Fergus,
and DeMarcus Lawrence. I mean, it's kind of a mass
unit of players, and how can you get a true
(29:02):
I guess he has put your finger on exactly what
this team was capable of with some of the guys
being injured. So it wouldn't be wrong for McCarthy to
come back. And I know most people think that's crazy.
It will be a crazy thing about Jerry Jones, but
more sometimes you gotta stick with guys. You have to
try to work through it and see how it works
out for you and your team. Because if you continue
(29:23):
to cut ties with quarterbacks, cut ties with head coaches,
you're just only hitting the reset button over and over again.
And how many times have we seen this where teams
like the Cleveland Browns keep moving quarterbacks out of the lineup,
getting rid of quarterbacks and then going to try to
get different types of coaches. You never developed any chemistry.
(29:45):
So if this is what Jerry Jones wants to do,
what the hell else does to tell Jerry Jones.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
What to do?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yeah, I mean, Jerry oons the team. He's gonna do
what he wants to do, goes. Mike McCarthy could be
a dead met walking.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
I believe that he is.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
I know that the Cowboys some background work, uh or
you know, going out there and looking at.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
There's some other specifically Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
But I don't believe that that's going to happen simply
because I think, uh, Will McLay, who is basically the you.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Know, the de facto general manager. Jerry Jones is the GM.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
But Will McLay handles all the responsibilities that Jerry doesn't.
You know, I don't think they want to reduce his
footprint on the organization. Will mcclay's been pretty goodt his job.
You know, Steve and Jerry that have kind of been
the vote anchors. And I don't think you want to
bring Bill Belichick in, who's gonna want to clean house
and consolidate power.
Speaker 4 (30:31):
Well, again, if you were to do that, how much
does it change what's happened with the team? Right? And
then you have to ask you so, if you're Jeffy
Jones or in your accountlish fan, if the team was
at full capacity, would the outcome of the season.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Be any different?
Speaker 6 (30:47):
Now?
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Are there subtle changes?
Speaker 4 (30:48):
That Jeffy Jones has to make himself as far as
trying to make this team more competitive.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Yes, they need to go out and get a reliable
running back.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
And it's crazy that they did have an opportunity to
get Derrick Henry, who wanted to be there to come
to Dallas because he has a home and offseason in Dawns,
and that didn't happen. I'm sure after the season that
Jerry Jones is gonna look at it and said, well,
there's some things that we could have done different and
I could have helped out coach McCarthy as well.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Yeah, I do expect Dallas to make a coaching change,
whatever you think of whatever is going on there. I
think they've reached their ceiling with this group and that
coaching staff, and it feels like, you know, maybe resetting.
You've got the players in place, You've got Dak, you've
got Ceedee Lamb in place. You need to do some
other retooling on that offense, specifically with you know, you
mentioned the running back position and in the defense, you're
gonna have to completely turn that over. It was great
(31:37):
when dan Quinn was there and he was masking some
of the vulnerabilities of it, but you can clearly see
you're gonna have to pay Michael Parsons not sure you can.
And the style that they run on defense is not
working with Mike Zimmer there running the defense.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Well. Also remember this that you know one of their
top corners who I think he had like six return
touchdowns on Iron T's last season, he was he has
been out for a success amount of time. So that
affects your defense, and it affects your pass rush.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
And DeMarcus Lawrence and Michael.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Parson wasn't there for a significant amount of time.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
That hurts you as well.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
So try to run it back and look, if Mike
McCarthy is a coach, hey see what happens.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
But we know Darry is really sporadic and anything can happen.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
And it's it's interesting.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
You'll know, Jerry I'll want to make a splashy higher
at the head coach position. If he does, he'll want
to He'll want to do something that that feels like
a big move. He's got that whole, you know, P T.
Barnum kind of thing going on. I am told that
the Deon Sanders stuff is absolute malarkey. That's not a
thing that's being considered on the Dallas side of the
house at all.
Speaker 4 (32:38):
Well, I mean, if I'm Dion, I wouldn't consider it
on his side.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Of the said, I'm not even talking about that.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
I talked to somebody who would know down there in
Dallas and they're like, that has not even been that
has never been discussed, and he's not going to be discussed.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
That is not on our radar.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Shade is going through the Raiders.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Come on, he yeah, come on, we arequare to know,
we're not kidding ourselves.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Does that make him a villain here in Colorado a
little bit?
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Only when he plays the Broncos?
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Okay, just interesting to see what that dynamic is, you know,
winds up being as far as that goes, I'm here
for money, time to talk about that. You listen to
the Broncos country night, but you're not get away.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
M hmmmmmmm hm
