thirty Pacific time. We'll also have shop talk, Rob Gene,
we gotta throw a shop talk in here because you
saw something online right that got you started.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Oh, I saw something online that had me shooketh Like,
when I saw it, I could not fathom what I
was reading and I had to contact the source for
what we're going to talk about.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Okay, do you got more details on this?
Speaker 5 (01:44):
No?
Speaker 4 (01:45):
They still choosing to be vague, which I think I
can makes it a better topic.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
I do because I think then we both know how
this all went down. So you're a fan of the show,
it involves someone who's on the show, but who's not here,
wink wink.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
You should know who we're talking about a little bit
on that.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
So that's up the last call next hour as well,
So a lot to get you on this funky flashback Friday,
Rob g I do want to.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Get into something that it's interesting to say the least,
and it's one of those you kind of gotta hmm
this thing right a little bit. You kind of gotta
say the things that make you go home, and that
is the NBA and what we're finding out about now
when it comes to the gambling issue with Malik Beasley.
So you recall we've had conversation about Malik Beasley being
(02:29):
investigated when it came to some gambling. There was some
abnormal bets on Malik Beasley. And then you know what
the internet does.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
The Internet starts interneting and showing game footagees.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Some odd things, some of them some of them were agreegious.
I'm not gonna lie. So you start to see those
where he didn't shoot here, or he didn't get back
on defense there, and so the internet started the.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Worst one where there's like five seconds left in the
game and he gets the inbound sprints down the court
and lays it in and it cuts a ten point
deficit to eight and the spread was nine, and you're like, oh,
Rob Ge, okay.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Say it with me. Things that make you go. Now
that's my Mary.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Now here's worth interesting for me, So let me just
get the details real quick.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Leak Beasley, he's no longer.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
A target of the federal gambling investigation that's conducted the
Eastern District of New York. His attorneys told ESPN that today,
so months after the investigation, Malik, he's uncharged and is
not the target of this investigation. So in allegation with
no charge in diaping or conviction should never have the
catastrophic consequence that it has from a leak. It's an
(03:36):
interesting point because you and I were talking earlier how
this all worked out. Him supposed to be a free
agent coming off for a really really good year for
the Pistons might have cost him forty two million dollars,
which forty two million dollars if I didn't do something,
it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
We gotta fight.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
We got subscratched, so somebody got to see me out
on the back alley or something. But with that being said,
Rob Gi, it leads to a larger conversation for me
at least, and that is something that I've been looking
at and considering, and we've talked about this gambling because
for a multitude of reasons lately when it comes to
the NBA and something don't smell right or sit right
with me with this when you break it down, I
(04:14):
think the NBA, NFL we're seeing it a lot.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Robb G.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
How many MLB conversations have we had with gambling where
pitchers have thrown pitches and they've had some concerns about
those pitches, right, And a lot of this comes with
prop bets and concerns about, well, this pitch is gonna
be over ninety miles or it's gonna be a or
a ball or a strike. In an NBA well, this
guy's gonna you know, shoot or five threes, and there's
(04:39):
concerns about that. Isn't it funny or ironic that on
the exact same day that the NBA cleared Terry Rozier
of gambling violations, you know what they announced on that
same day, robb G. What's that that Malague Beasley was
under a federal investigation for the same thing.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
That ain't no coincidence.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
That is called damage control, right, Because if the Terry
Rosier is going on and some new facts about that
come out and me, you and Rob Parker talking about
it for another week, two weeks, three weeks, a month,
and you got Malik Bezy going on that we talked
about for another two to three months, and something going on,
and you got still the Jonte Porter hanging out over there.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Well, that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Going on for one league that is in bed with
the fan duels, the draft kings and all these sports
book that you are the ones that you can name
as well.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
So the NBA has been going through this.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
If you recall the Tim Donahe issue back in two
thousand and seven where he fixed games for the Mob
then and that scandal nearly destroyed the league's credibility with
a lot of people because people were saying, well, what's
going on? People were saying, I knew something was fishing
in two thousand and two Game six NBA Western Conference
(05:52):
Finals Lakers Kings, So all these things, does that one.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Totally get him a game? Oh yeah, I don't care
what Tim Donnie did. We won that game fair and square. Okay,
that's what we're saying, Rob is what we're saying. Okay,
Well I got a bridge. I want to sell you
in Brooklyn too. But here's the thing. The league got
past that.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
The league moved on, and I think, rob g, they
don't want anything else to make us look back in
the rear view mirror, to hop in the dolorre and
go back in time and start looking at that Donnahye
scandal and start to look at these things and go,
something don't seem right, And now is their concern? When
you got Beasley in the crosshairs of all this, when
you have Terry Rozier in the federal investigation going on,
(06:32):
When we had Johntay Porter last season as well, these
things are happening more and more frequently. And when you
have even Michael Porter junior, John Jay's older brother talking
about how easy it is on a podcast saying, man,
you got guys coming from nothing. Oh unless say they're
a lower you know, smaller player not making a lot
of money to a way player like his brother was
(06:54):
and the homies back home, I ain't got nothing.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
And you can say, man, look they got it under that.
I'm gonna play.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I'm gonna get five rebounds, I'm gonna get three or four,
and my hamstring hurts the reds of this game. Wink wink,
you might want to put a thou on your boy.
My back's tightened up. You might want to put five
hundred on your boy. It's so easy now with these
prop bets and the prompt bets lead for a major
concern for the NBA and the NFL and MLB, and
and we keep having all these conversation investigations, and I
(07:25):
wonder when it's gonna come to a head where the
NBA and all these other leaders are gonna have to
go back to DraftKings FanDuel and be like, uh, we're
gonna have to figure something out. Either keep doing what
you're doing with or not, but we gotta change the
prop bets or something, or they're just gonna try to
finesse this enough and play magician enough. Rob Gi to say,
look over here, wait, look over here, Terry Richards canceled. Okay,
(07:47):
well look over here. Blik Bes is going ha ha, no, no, no,
what investigation. I don't rember what you're talking about. And
hope that we forget. But this game keep happening two
three times in the season because it's gonna make people go, well,
what the heck is.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Really going on? David stur or Adam.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Yeah, you know what's funny is through all of this situation,
you know Terry Rozier, you know Malik Beasley now and
the John Say Porter situation is the only definitive comment
that we've gotten from the NBA and the Players Association
for that matter, is we would like to adjust the
prop bets with our partners so that if you're on
a ten day contract, you're not eligible for a prop bet.
(08:22):
That's the only thing that they've said that, like, Hey,
we are gonna get rid of this. We're gonna get
rid of that. We're gonna institute some kind of governing body. No, no,
nothing like that. It's just the ten day guys. That's
what we gotta worry about. And that's what and that's
what's funny about this whole situation is you mentioned the
Michael Porter junior comments on that podcast. It's not quite
(08:44):
as bad as that infamous R. Kelly interview with touring
right Tori say you say his name where they ask
him like, are you attracted to teenage girls? And the
obvious answer for our Kelly in that situation was no, absolutely,
not I am not absolutely, And instead he says, but
when we say teenage, how old are we talking?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
How do we like? What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Bro?
Speaker 2 (09:07):
And so for Mike is amazing, Like what Blake's three times?
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Like wait what, like I know, I know R Kelly's
publicist quit right there, Like you know, I'm done. There's
there's nothing for me to do with this. It's a wrap.
And so for Michael Porter exactly, so for Michael Porter
Junior to go on the podcast and and and if
they're going to talk about Johnson the whole situation, all
he has to say is that was a terrible decision
by him. He's learned his lesson. I hope every NBA
(09:35):
player from now on will understand what kind of a
mistake it was. And he threw away his career over
you know, five thousand, eight thousand dollars whatever it was.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Instead, he goes, well, you know, it's real easy.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
If we wanted to manipulate the prop bets, and if
I got a buddy and I want to make a
couple of racks on it, it's.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Not hard for me to make it happen. And it's like,
oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
That's not the alley we want you to talk.
Speaker 6 (10:01):
That ain't a bad idea, you know, the way you
made it sound, it does seem more I think about it,
But this is And again, we're not saying that the
NBA is being nefarious, that this is all some big
cover up, But I'm not saying it's not a cover
up because this is something that's been going.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
On now my entire life. Basically, you mentioned you got
the gambling. Now before that, it was the Tim Donegie situation.
Even somewhere in the middle between the Donnegie and the gambling,
there's an official in the NBA, Scott Foster.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
You know what his nickname is, the Extender.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
You don't get a nickname like the Extender unless you
got a reputation for finding a way to turning a
four game series into a five games.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Here, I'm just saying, don't let Chris Paul here.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
And if we want to go back even further, if
you want to go back to the eighties and the
NBA Draft lottery, I don't know about you, but I've
been told allegedly that the reasoning Patrick Ewing ended up
with the New York Knicks because the envelope was frozen.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Hey listen, it's hot in the summer, and if I
fill a cold envelope, I'm gonna know which one is which.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It's just the NBA has got this weird history where
they I don't know if it's on purpose. I'm not
gonna say it's on purpose because it's all alleged, but
they traffic in some very suspicious activity.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Well, let's stay in traffic. Let's be all up in
the hole lane.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Okay, Lebron James from where Northeast Ohio.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Who happens to get the number one pick? Cleveland?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Lebron goes there, right, Lebron leaves Cleveland. Man, I'm sorry, Cleveland.
I can't believe y'all lost the biggest player in the
league as Shime and all that good stuff. For at least,
that's a shame. It'd be crazy if we just happen
to give y'all a number one pick.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
I'm just saying. I'm just saying, man, I've been here before,
New Orleans. I know that Anthony Davis just forced a
way out of town. That's a terrible thing.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
It's it's just happened to be this.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
But you know what, it worked out that you guys
just want the draft lottery to the greatest draft prospect
of the last ten years.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Im Williamson just coincid, Dick Quinky Dinky man Dallas, you
lost Luca y'all traded him.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Oh man, that's wild.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Well there's another big time college star that everybody loves.
Just be crazy if he just became available. And I
alley you if you just number one pick when you
had a what two chance of getting it. I'm just
saying with my tinfoil illumitum hat on that. Uh, the
NBA does have some suspicious things that coincidentally tend to
(12:48):
happen quite often.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Roger, Yeah, no, why do you think it is the
NBA that this happens to?
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And you know, actually I actually actually have answer. I
think more than anything, I think you'll feel me on this.
One player can change the end, be your team, your
organization much easier. Yes, aside from five to six quarterbacks
in the NFL, one player doesn't make that much of
a difference.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
For instance, let's.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Say, uh, if I took away Justin Jefferson, the Vikings
will be sick. But if I gave you another, you know,
if you're another receiver stepped up, you can still compete
and have a chance to win. Now, if I take
away Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson, we got
to know a whole another conversation.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
The Cowboys can lose Micah and if they go on
a row, you never know.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Mess around to be you know, eleven and six sneak
in the postseason, but they could be okay. But if
I give you twenty one year old Lebron, James Derrick Rose,
Kobe Bryant, Shaq, Steph Curry, you know these young guys
that you can have potentially for seven, eight to twelve years,
that can change the trajectory or franchise forever.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Tim Duncan forever, Patrick Ewing.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
The Knicks didn't win, but they were always competitive for
ten to fifteen years. And Orlando, you get shat, what
do you do? You go straight to the finals? A
couple of seasons later, Cleve against Lebron. What do they
do go to the finals way before they were supposed
to know?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Seven?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
You know, Steph Curry changed the entire direction of the franchise.
So my point is the NBA, little things like that
can change your franchise for quite a bit of time
versus the NFL, where it's much harder.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Well speaking and changing the direction of a franchise. There's
a franchise in the NFL that would wish that their
star pass rusher would change the speed and is a dometer.
That was a terrible segment, but we'll get into that next.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
It wasn't bad at all. I love it.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Joe Corey, former NFL agent, CBS Sports NFL analysts, getting
ready to join us here in about five or six minutes.
Looking forward to that right now, Rob G and I
getting ready to talk about Miles Garrett, who's been having
a little bit of an issue, actually a lot of
bit of issue at this point with the roads. Here's
Miles Garrett when he was impressed about it.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
What is it like to be in that car and
seeing that it's predominant preak up to more than.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
One hundred mile pro I do honestly rather talk about
football on this team than anything I'm doing off field,
other than the back to school no event that I
did the other day. But I mean, people want to know.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
I want to know about that.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
People want to know a lot of things. Daggd. We
do want to know. That was a file question. What
does it feel like?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
That was such a set up question, right because if
you just ask it, maybe he knows where it's going
early He's like, I ain't trying to hear that.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
But when you.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Try to find a way to do like, oh g
golly shucks, you know, I just wish I could ride
around like that.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Never gone that fast before, I've never.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Go I haven't had one of some of the cars
that you've been able to drive. You think you might
bait him in actually answering that, and that is absolutely
not the case. So uh, for context, the what the
reporter was asking there, Miles Garrett has now been ticketed
eight times, Rob just geez eight times for speeding. And
(18:11):
what makes it even more interesting to me is that
somebody will say, all right, well, that's not that big
of a deal, right, I mean, we all speed.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I'll be the first one to say that I've got
speeding tickets, right. But when you.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Start to add up to eight and not eight in
his life since he was sixteen, you're talking eight since
he's been a Brown and that's an absurd amount of number.
But also when it starts to affect Rob g to me,
your actual on field play, that's when I really have
an issue because this isn't something where it's all leave
him alone.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
That's his personal life, blah blah blah. We can move on.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
No, he actually had to miss time on the field
because he got into a wreck a few years back.
He got into a car crash that messed him up,
beat him up pretty bad, and he had to miss
a game. So now you're talking about an habitual issue
that is a problem that is affecting the game play,
that is affecting me. If I'm the Browns and ownership
and more importantly, just as someone who would care about
(19:04):
your life. If I'm a friend or if I'm you know,
a leader on the team. It's affecting your health. It
could be it could have been dangerous. You could have
not gotten back up from that accident. Someone could have
been killed. How many conversations have me, you and Rob
Parker have had over the last couple of months about this, yep,
Rashie Rice.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Yeah, to be an example, Uh huh. So this is
concerning from the best player on our team, supposed to
be a leader on our team, and now I got
to look at the team as a whole because Shadora
and got a couple already. He ain't even been there
that long. So what the heck is going on in Cleveland?
You know what?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I was just in Cleveland last week or a week
and a half ago, whatever it was, and I can
tell you what. The city is clean, the downtown is
bigger than you think. But ain't nobody there. And maybe
that's the problem. They got these free roads and people
think they are hanging out with Fast and Furious and
they're doing it for the family.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
What is going on with Miles Garrett.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
Rob jamily family? You with the nail out of the dead.
First off, of course, it's a safety issue, right, Like
it's one thing like you know around here you get
cot speeding on what eighty five eighty seven. You don't
really have that much open road in LA to really
open it up, right, This dude's hitting one hundred on
the regular, to a point where they got to ask him, Michael,
what does it feel like to go one hundred miles
an hour? Because you do it basically every week and
(20:19):
a half, I feel like you know all about it, right,
So like that's number one. But number two I think
this is a bigger conversation is this is indicative as
to why the Cleveland Browns is such a dumpster fire
and have been. Because you could point to the quarterback situation,
and that's true, right, But Miles Garrett, in addition to
being the best player that they've had there, you know,
(20:40):
basically in my lifetime, he is supposed to be the
leader of the team. And when the leader of the
team is number one, this reckless off the field and
do it something like this repeatedly over and over, it
sets a point to where the leadership is not there.
And this is something that was actually talked about by
the athletics Jason Lloyd back in March when he signed
that contracts. He said in his article quote, It's well
(21:02):
known within the Browns organization, Miles Garrett frequently late to
the facility. He skipped mandatory team activities on multiple occasions,
and normally veterans will police this kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
The problem is.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
He's the veteran, right, there's no one there to police him,
and in a situation.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
To police exactly, and the situation like this.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
I'm not saying that this is the reason it happened,
But when you see your best player, your leader, getting
popped for speeding on an annual basis, I'm not shocked
in that Shador Sanders, a young, impressionable rookie, would get
caught doing something similar like that. That you're setting the
tone for the team and the franchise when your best
player keeps doing stuff like this.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
You want to know ROI.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
I know he's been questions about leadership, question about being
lay question about the.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Tickets and all that. You want to know how I
know how you know?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Because if we were to play that back, and the
first thing he says is, you know, I just want
to talk about my charitable acts when you start going
to the charitable axe in your charitable foundations?
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Did I know something up? You know, I just want
to talk about what I mean to the community. Yeah,
something up?
Speaker 1 (22:07):
You know, so automatically know that. Uh but you yeah,
you bring up I mean, listen, you're right about it.
He's supposed to be the face of the franchise because
at that time, up until now and even now, we
still don't.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Know who the face is. As far as a quarterback.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
You gotta have him participating in being exactly where he
needs to be. So hopefully, hopefully man on a serious
now and we're joking right now, but on a serious
hell tip, hopefully he'll learn from his lesson Robbie, because
that could have been really bad for him. You know
what I mean, that he could have not gotten up. Yeah,
he already he's already flipped the car once exactly. And
he's too big to be flipping cars on these streets. Facts,
(22:40):
way way too big. All right, On the way we have,
we're gonna have a conversation on the other side of
the trending with Joel Corey, former NFL agency, Best Sports
NFL analysts.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
You're looking forward to that right now, man, boss. Uh,
we we'll already ask you so to the antez at.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
S.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Yes see manyana, yes, good job. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 10 (23:13):
Well, we've got a lot of NFL going on right now.
It's Week three of the NFL preseason. Jake Elliott has
hit two field goals for the Eagles, a fifty one
yard field goal and a fifty three yard field goal,
and they're on top of the Jets six zero store
early in the second quarter. Joe Milton with the rushing
touchdown puts Cowboys on the scoreboard against the Falcons seven
zero halfway through the first Late in the first quarter
(23:35):
of Vikings up on the Titans three zero, and the
Bears and the Chiefs just got going in their preseason game.
Earlier today, the Commanders traded running back Brian Robinson Junior
to the San Francisco forty nine ers for a six
round pick in twenty twenty six, and multiple reports that
the Vikings and the Panthers have had trade talks involving
Carolina wide receiver Adam Thielen. In baseball, the Giants are
(23:56):
on top of the Brewers to zero. Top of the
second inning. Guardians are edging the one zero bottom of
the second. Also, Ranger center fielder Evan Carter con miss
the rest of the regular season.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
With the fractured right wrist.
Speaker 10 (24:07):
The Rays are up on the Cardinals right now, five
to one, bottom of the third, all met so far
against the Braves seven to one, top of the fourth inning.
Blue Jay is up on the Marlins three to one,
top of the sixth. The Royals have a three to
one lead over the Tigers after five innings. The Orioles
have cut their deficit to one against the Astros. Houston
up four to three, top of the fifth. Red Sox
and Yankees are scoreless, but the fans still got a show.
(24:31):
A squirrel went crazy in the fourth inning at Yankee Stadium,
and obviously it's kind of hard to catch a scroll.
It happened for I saw a whole minute of the
squirrel running around, so I don't know how long it
took for them to actually get the squirrel. So even
though it's a scoreless game, at least the fans got
a little action of some sort. The Nationals have tied
the game against the Phillies. It's three to three, bottom
of the sixth inning. Back to you guys, thank you
(24:53):
get it out as much too Gusta, all right, it's
the odd couple.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
We got Rob d I for Rob Barker, Kilvill, Washington
on a funky flashback Friday. We're joined now by Joel Corey,
former NFL Agen CBS Sports NFL analyst Corey Joel on
X and by the way, if you got akd E
STEFP back, Joy's not cooperating some days your body's just
like nope. Thankfully on those days there's a lead with
just one pill. Leave provides up to twelve hours of
(25:18):
paying relief so you can keep moving. Use as directed, Joel.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
What's going on? How you doing doing great?
Speaker 1 (25:23):
How you guys doing.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
We're doing great, man, thank you for asking.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
We're doing better than a Cowboys fan on this here Friday.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
What is going on?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
We got Jerry beefing with agents. We got Jerry ignoring
agents and trying to do back alley or back of
the club deals in Vegas, signing Mike into some deal
on the napkin.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
What's up, Joel? How this can't happen right?
Speaker 8 (25:47):
Well, this isn't anything news for Jerry. He's been trying
to circumvent agents for over thirty years. When I first
got started that with the client that my bosses are representing,
Jimmy Smith, and that draft ride receivers weren't. Teams are
(26:12):
waiting to take wide receivers. And what Jerry did was
get Jimmy on the phone while they're on the clock
and tell them we're going to take you, but you
have to agree to this particular below market contract. Jimmy's
a little anxious because the draft isn't going the way
we thought. We thought he might be a lead first
round pick instead of second round pick. He agrees to it.
(26:35):
When he outs to my bosses, they're pretty upset about it.
Called Jerry and tell them we don't have an agreement.
You're negotiating of us and a market contract got done
shortly thereafter. So this isn't new for Jerry.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
Well, Joe, isn't there protocol I have to imagine this
protocols in place to prevent us kind of thing? Because
if that was the case, then why wouldn't every agent
just contact his player in the locker room, you know,
up in my suite whatever to get a deal done
and cut the agent out. Isn't there something that would
safeguard this?
Speaker 8 (27:09):
Yeah, Well it's something the NFLPA didn't force any type
of safeguards, but you know Jerry is going to do
something like this, so you really make your players aware
that he is going to approach you. And what Micah
should have done is at best, say I think I'm
(27:33):
the best defensive player in the NFL and I should
be paid accordingly, and you work everything else out with
my agent. Don't engage in any back and forth. So
that's where I put a little bit of the blame
on Micah as Bryant had an interesting way of dealing
with that several years ago, from what he said on
(27:55):
a podcast last year that he asked Jerry and if
Garry could cover him on the football field, and he's like, no,
I get destroyed, and he posed the question to Jared,
then why do you think I would be able togotiate
with you? And that ended it and get it to
deal with DES's representatives.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I want to ask you this one, Joe switching gears
a little bit here, something we talked about in our
show a handful of weeks ago. But I feel like
I kind of just rolled on and that is the
arbitration rule, and I found the NFL was urging team
owners to restrict fully guaranteed contract for quarterbacks after the
Deshaun Watson deal, and we know that it got found
to come out. They had an arbitration about it and
(28:38):
they found inclusion. But you had the NFLPA not even
telling the players for six months until they were kind
of forced to tell them, like, oh, yeah, my bad,
I was meant to tell you that.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
How big of a deal is that? And how big
is it a.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Deal that you have the NFLPA not even telling the
players and kind of having to find this out on
their own and when they could be maybe using that
in the favor of the players.
Speaker 8 (29:00):
That's a huge deals that it was concealed. That's one
of the big reasons why Lloyd how is no longer
the executive director. Yeah, I'm sure the agents of quarterbacks
and other high profile players would have loved to have
known that information right after the decision was rendered so
(29:23):
they could try to use it to their advantage and negotiations.
Oh I don't know why the nfl PA wouldn't try
to weaponize that against the NFL. But then again, Lloyd
How was the guy that, when at first asked about
an eighteenth game, essentially said who loves no football? Who
doesn't love more football? ID when your proper response should
(29:48):
be will have an eighteenth game over my dead bite?
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Right right?
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Joe Corey, Formulative AGENCYBS Sports, You're on the odd couple. Well,
speaking of that, Deshaun Watson, you know Contra David Willigetev
represented Deshaun Watson, also rids of Michael Parsons. Looking at
his history, like five of his biggest clients have all
at one point demanded a trade in order to get
(30:14):
the money that they're after, which to me feels like
a new kind of thing in the NFL. We've seen
this a lot in the NBA, but this feels like
a new development in the NFL. Could you imagine a
situation where this kind of does become par for the
course for the best players, where it's like, Hey, if
I'm not going to get the money that i'm asking for,
I'm going to demand the trade. I'm gonna scrub all
my socials and eventually you're going to give it to me.
(30:34):
Because that's what great players, that's what they get.
Speaker 8 (30:39):
Player empowerment in the NBA is much different than the NFL.
What you see in a contract dispute, part of the
agent calculus or playbook, it is to demand a trade.
Trey Henderson demanded one early in the offseason. Karen mcclaurin
demanded one. Michaeh Parsons dan quinn said at the time
(31:03):
with mclaurin's trade request, that's just part of the business.
So Watson was a little bit different. He was a
little upset about how the head coaching process took place
in how his suggestions were ignored. He was under contract
for four years at the time, and they mutually agreed
(31:26):
that he wouldn't play that year. The Texans didn't want
him around after all the sexual assought allegations came out.
He didn't want to play for them either, so he
was basically on the fifty three man roster getting paid.
They wasted roster spot in him. So that was a
little bit different than the other ones.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
I want to ask you this.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
You mentioned it earlier the eighteen games. You kind of
were joking, hey, over my dead body. But is that
because it already is in the air and the NFL's
the Bohemian and the king of sports and North America
specifically the States, is it almost an inevitability meeting once
it's out there. Once we've talked about it, shows like
(32:07):
this converse about it, It's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (32:11):
Yeah, it's going to happen. I'm not sure if it
will be before the end of this collective our agreement,
which runs through the twenty thirty season. The NFL has
the right to opt out of the media rights deals
I think after twenty twenty nine, so they would want
to have the eighteenth game in place by then, but
(32:32):
you're gonna need to negotiate with the players union if
they ever get their act together, to do it sooner
rather than later. One of the things that didn't help
is some of the players came out and said, as
long as the extra game check and a bye week,
I'm okay, No, the eighteenth game should be much more
valuable to the owners than that. Those should be given
(32:56):
that you're gonna get an extra game checked and by week,
but there should be substantial concessions for that. I'm not
optimistic that the union will get substantial concessions because anytime
there is a workstop, it doesn't matter what sport, the
bees meeting billionaires will outlast him the millionaires. At least
(33:20):
when the NBA has had work stoppages, the players have
more resolved, and we'll take it into the season. The
last time in twenty eleven, the NFL players caved before
any preseason games are played.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Well, well, you're gonna have to watch and wait and
see and now once, like I said, Joel, once this
is out there, I feel like it's an inevitability.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Uh, it's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (33:41):
It's gonna happen, no doubt.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
And by the way, Joe and Robgy they care about
so much about safety, let's just keep that in games.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
All right, Joe, thank you so much. Appreciate you man,
Thank you Joe.
Speaker 8 (33:52):
Thanks y'all, thanks for having you guys.
Speaker 2 (33:54):

Rob Jada's time now for an impromptu shop talk.
Speaker 4 (35:05):
That's right at his shop talk here on the Ad
Couple the same when we talk about something happen outside
of the world of sports, and this week's topic comes
to us courtesy of our very own Rob Parker, because
as you know, he's been traveling Parker, thank you, traveling
the globe about a week now. We're doing it all
next week two. And as a result, he's been a
lot of airports so earlier on Friday, he was taking
(35:28):
a shuttle from his hotel to the airport to go
to his next stop, and according to Rob, here's what
he tweeted out. I've seen it all. The shuttle driver
from my hotel just refused my tip because it wasn't enough.
Shaking my head hashtag the shame of it all. People
(35:50):
have asked him how much he gave. He's leaving that
up to your imagination, which I feel makes us even better.
Oh yeah, but dub your thoughts.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
First thing I said on his Instagram Rob G I said, well,
did the tip jingle because it sounded like you might
have gave him seventy five cent, fifty cent whatever was
in his pocket. He said no, He said, nobody carries
change anymore. But it does make you wonder With Rob.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Rob is the most frugal, cheapest person and also the
biggest spender. I know, it's a weird complexity.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
If you ask me the thing, I'll tell you if
he's gonna spend it or not, and it'll be weird.
He'll literally walk out of a store because the soda
went up forty cents from two days ago.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
But it'll walk out with.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
A Gucci hat, Gucci hoodie, and his very expensive car
and it won't make any sense. The duality of man,
the duality of Rob Parker. It kind of reminds you
of that Chris Rock character. And I'm gonna get you, sucker,
how much for one rid? And he complains, how much
a lot? How about you just let me eat half
a rid? And ultimately at the end he pulls out
(36:54):
a lot of money. You're like, wait a minute, you've
been complaining about the price of ribs. He just pulled
out about one thousand dollars. So that's Rob Parker. I
have a feeling it was uh, probably insultingly low, that
it wasn't worth me say I was carrying all your stuff,
took your luggage out, blah blah whatever.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
It's just what even just you you you keep it bro.
So if you had to guess how much, was it.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
Two dollars and the signed a little greater or less
than two or less?
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Like I think it was two dollars or less, all right.
Speaker 10 (37:23):
Manzi even if it was that you don't turn down bills.
Speaker 4 (37:27):
I never turn it down to like, even if it.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
Was one dollar.
Speaker 10 (37:30):
That's why there's there's something we don't know here.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
I love Rob, but there's something we don't know.
Speaker 10 (37:34):
Even if it was one dollar, the person takes it
and maybe rolls their eyes, but if it's bills, you.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
Just take it. Well, go ahead, Rob, gie, well they
under two dollars, under two dollars, go.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
Ahead, go ahead, doth no, go ahead, I'm gonna okay.
So my thing is, I yes, I agree with you guys.
I believe it was two dollars. I'm gonna say it
was a dollar. That's what I think it was. But
here's where I think. This is why I wish Rob
would answer a question. But he's not going to think
he's doing it on purpose. What I really believe happened
is he didn't give him a dollar or two singles right.
(38:08):
What I think most likely happened. Rob gave him a
five or a ten and said, hey, can I get
change back? And that's what led to him saying, you
know what, might as well keep it.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
I don't need that to absolutely he gave him a
ten and asked for nine back, and the person said,
I ain't.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
Nobody got time for that. It's not even worth me
digging through my.
Speaker 1 (38:31):
Purse, my this, my that, my wallet trying to find
a change, you know, kicking up dust trying to find it.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
Just here you go, man, I took you to where
you needed to go, Terminal five? Is that way? Here's bad,
here's your luggage. Have a great day. You tell me
you can't break a ten for me?
Speaker 4 (38:46):
On pat you're six spender on the show. What do
you think Rob tip number one and numbers? Do you
have an issue with the guy giving it back?
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Well, here's the thing. I ain't passing up no money.
Speaker 9 (38:56):
If I'm getting tip, it doesn't matter if it's a
dollar fifty cents or ten or ten dollars, I'll be
like money yay.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Number two? What did I think Rob gave I?
Speaker 9 (39:06):
Like your idea of the concept of oh he gave
him a ten just for you know, a dollar back
or whatever, Like I I'll say a dollar fifty. He's
gonna do the Hank Hill thing, like so you can
work a dollar fifty dollar fifty so you could work
towards better next time.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
That's funny. Yeah, this is Do you think.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
He also got his bag of clothes in there? Like hey, no, no, no, no,
leave leave that on the shuttle because I want you
to keep that.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
That might actually be with the person was completely over.
I don't want any tips from you. Matter of fact,
what if that is the tip? So minutes money? What
if that is the tip? Roger with six foot four
clothes And it was like hey, and all it said
was odd. Couple this odd. Couple that with Chris Brussard
and he was like, you can have these marry that.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
You just bought new furniture. What happened? So you know
you got money fun out of your pockets. You just
told me about it.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Yeah, oh my gosh, it was it hurt? It hurt?
But have anything? I think Rob probably gave like a
dollar dollars.
Speaker 4 (40:03):
And would you give it back if someone gave you
a dollar or two dollars?
Speaker 2 (40:06):
No, no, you wouldn't give it back.
Speaker 10 (40:08):
It's this change thing you said. You just wouldn't give
back bills. You would be annoyed by it, but you
wouldn't give it back.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Allow it.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
But Manti recognized him and they were like, this dude
has big money. He's got a national radio show, he
does this, he does that, and this man just gave
me a dollar or two. Man, I'm good bro, keep it.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
You think put him on World Stars? So bad? World Star?
Does that exist? Yes? They're going on Twitter? Oh gosh,
does that exist.
Speaker 10 (40:37):
I think you guys are right that you probably asked
for change, and that's when the person was like, never mind,
you keep it.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
Just go ahead, bro, it ain't even worth more than
I do. Yeah, I mean that. That's that's absolutely what happened.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
But maybe we'll get the truth out of him when
he comes back, or maybe somebody oppress him enough on
social media and he'll give it to us. I think
he was mad when I said did a jingle though
the actual tip he would give him sixty five cents
or something like that.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
I think he was you're on the outs with defrom
right now? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Oh yeah, that don't bring that up. You might not
be on the show anymore. H

Speaker 1 (01:17):
NFL agent, CBS Sports NFL analysts gonna join us at

thirty Pacific time. We'll also have shop talk, Rob Gene,
we gotta throw a shop talk in here because you
saw something online right that got you started.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Oh, I saw something online that had me shooketh Like,
when I saw it, I could not fathom what I
was reading and I had to contact the source for
what we're going to talk about.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Okay, do you got more details on this?
Speaker 5 (01:44):
No?
Speaker 4 (01:45):
They still choosing to be vague, which I think I
can makes it a better topic.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
I do because I think then we both know how
this all went down. So you're a fan of the show,
it involves someone who's on the show, but who's not here,
wink wink.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
You should know who we're talking about a little bit
on that.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
So that's up the last call next hour as well,
So a lot to get you on this funky flashback Friday,
Rob g I do want to.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Get into something that it's interesting to say the least,
and it's one of those you kind of gotta hmm
this thing right a little bit. You kind of gotta
say the things that make you go home, and that
is the NBA and what we're finding out about now
when it comes to the gambling issue with Malik Beasley.
So you recall we've had conversation about Malik Beasley being
(02:29):
investigated when it came to some gambling. There was some
abnormal bets on Malik Beasley. And then you know what
the internet does.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
The Internet starts interneting and showing game footagees.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Some odd things, some of them some of them were agreegious.
I'm not gonna lie. So you start to see those
where he didn't shoot here, or he didn't get back
on defense there, and so the internet started the.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Worst one where there's like five seconds left in the
game and he gets the inbound sprints down the court
and lays it in and it cuts a ten point
deficit to eight and the spread was nine, and you're like, oh,
Rob Ge, okay.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Say it with me. Things that make you go. Now
that's my Mary.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Now here's worth interesting for me, So let me just
get the details real quick.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Leak Beasley, he's no longer.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
A target of the federal gambling investigation that's conducted the
Eastern District of New York. His attorneys told ESPN that today,
so months after the investigation, Malik, he's uncharged and is
not the target of this investigation. So in allegation with
no charge in diaping or conviction should never have the
catastrophic consequence that it has from a leak. It's an
(03:36):
interesting point because you and I were talking earlier how
this all worked out. Him supposed to be a free
agent coming off for a really really good year for
the Pistons might have cost him forty two million dollars,
which forty two million dollars if I didn't do something,
it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
We gotta fight.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
We got subscratched, so somebody got to see me out
on the back alley or something. But with that being said,
Rob Gi, it leads to a larger conversation for me
at least, and that is something that I've been looking
at and considering, and we've talked about this gambling because
for a multitude of reasons lately when it comes to
the NBA and something don't smell right or sit right
with me with this when you break it down, I
(04:14):
think the NBA, NFL we're seeing it a lot.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Robb G.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
How many MLB conversations have we had with gambling where
pitchers have thrown pitches and they've had some concerns about
those pitches, right, And a lot of this comes with
prop bets and concerns about, well, this pitch is gonna
be over ninety miles or it's gonna be a or
a ball or a strike. In an NBA well, this
guy's gonna you know, shoot or five threes, and there's
(04:39):
concerns about that. Isn't it funny or ironic that on
the exact same day that the NBA cleared Terry Rozier
of gambling violations, you know what they announced on that
same day, robb G. What's that that Malague Beasley was
under a federal investigation for the same thing.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
That ain't no coincidence.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
That is called damage control, right, Because if the Terry
Rosier is going on and some new facts about that
come out and me, you and Rob Parker talking about
it for another week, two weeks, three weeks, a month,
and you got Malik Bezy going on that we talked
about for another two to three months, and something going on,
and you got still the Jonte Porter hanging out over there.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Well, that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Going on for one league that is in bed with
the fan duels, the draft kings and all these sports
book that you are the ones that you can name
as well.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
So the NBA has been going through this.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
If you recall the Tim Donahe issue back in two
thousand and seven where he fixed games for the Mob
then and that scandal nearly destroyed the league's credibility with
a lot of people because people were saying, well, what's
going on? People were saying, I knew something was fishing
in two thousand and two Game six NBA Western Conference
(05:52):
Finals Lakers Kings, So all these things, does that one.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Totally get him a game? Oh yeah, I don't care
what Tim Donnie did. We won that game fair and square. Okay,
that's what we're saying, Rob is what we're saying. Okay,
Well I got a bridge. I want to sell you
in Brooklyn too. But here's the thing. The league got
past that.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
The league moved on, and I think, rob g, they
don't want anything else to make us look back in
the rear view mirror, to hop in the dolorre and
go back in time and start looking at that Donnahye
scandal and start to look at these things and go,
something don't seem right, And now is their concern? When
you got Beasley in the crosshairs of all this, when
you have Terry Rozier in the federal investigation going on,
(06:32):
When we had Johntay Porter last season as well, these
things are happening more and more frequently. And when you
have even Michael Porter junior, John Jay's older brother talking
about how easy it is on a podcast saying, man,
you got guys coming from nothing. Oh unless say they're
a lower you know, smaller player not making a lot
of money to a way player like his brother was
(06:54):
and the homies back home, I ain't got nothing.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
And you can say, man, look they got it under that.
I'm gonna play.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I'm gonna get five rebounds, I'm gonna get three or four,
and my hamstring hurts the reds of this game. Wink wink,
you might want to put a thou on your boy.
My back's tightened up. You might want to put five
hundred on your boy. It's so easy now with these
prop bets and the prompt bets lead for a major
concern for the NBA and the NFL and MLB, and
and we keep having all these conversation investigations, and I
(07:25):
wonder when it's gonna come to a head where the
NBA and all these other leaders are gonna have to
go back to DraftKings FanDuel and be like, uh, we're
gonna have to figure something out. Either keep doing what
you're doing with or not, but we gotta change the
prop bets or something, or they're just gonna try to
finesse this enough and play magician enough. Rob Gi to say,
look over here, wait, look over here, Terry Richards canceled. Okay,
(07:47):
well look over here. Blik Bes is going ha ha, no, no, no,
what investigation. I don't rember what you're talking about. And
hope that we forget. But this game keep happening two
three times in the season because it's gonna make people go, well,
what the heck is.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Really going on? David stur or Adam.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Yeah, you know what's funny is through all of this situation,
you know Terry Rozier, you know Malik Beasley now and
the John Say Porter situation is the only definitive comment
that we've gotten from the NBA and the Players Association
for that matter, is we would like to adjust the
prop bets with our partners so that if you're on
a ten day contract, you're not eligible for a prop bet.
(08:22):
That's the only thing that they've said that, like, Hey,
we are gonna get rid of this. We're gonna get
rid of that. We're gonna institute some kind of governing body. No, no,
nothing like that. It's just the ten day guys. That's
what we gotta worry about. And that's what and that's
what's funny about this whole situation is you mentioned the
Michael Porter junior comments on that podcast. It's not quite
(08:44):
as bad as that infamous R. Kelly interview with touring
right Tori say you say his name where they ask
him like, are you attracted to teenage girls? And the
obvious answer for our Kelly in that situation was no, absolutely,
not I am not absolutely, And instead he says, but
when we say teenage, how old are we talking?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
How do we like? What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Bro?
Speaker 2 (09:07):
And so for Mike is amazing, Like what Blake's three times?
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Like wait what, like I know, I know R Kelly's
publicist quit right there, Like you know, I'm done. There's
there's nothing for me to do with this. It's a wrap.
And so for Michael Porter exactly, so for Michael Porter
Junior to go on the podcast and and and if
they're going to talk about Johnson the whole situation, all
he has to say is that was a terrible decision
by him. He's learned his lesson. I hope every NBA
(09:35):
player from now on will understand what kind of a
mistake it was. And he threw away his career over
you know, five thousand, eight thousand dollars whatever it was.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Instead, he goes, well, you know, it's real easy.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
If we wanted to manipulate the prop bets, and if
I got a buddy and I want to make a
couple of racks on it, it's.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Not hard for me to make it happen. And it's like,
oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
That's not the alley we want you to talk.
Speaker 6 (10:01):
That ain't a bad idea, you know, the way you
made it sound, it does seem more I think about it,
But this is And again, we're not saying that the
NBA is being nefarious, that this is all some big
cover up, But I'm not saying it's not a cover
up because this is something that's been going.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
On now my entire life. Basically, you mentioned you got
the gambling. Now before that, it was the Tim Donegie situation.
Even somewhere in the middle between the Donnegie and the gambling,
there's an official in the NBA, Scott Foster.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
You know what his nickname is, the Extender.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
You don't get a nickname like the Extender unless you
got a reputation for finding a way to turning a
four game series into a five games.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Here, I'm just saying, don't let Chris Paul here.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
And if we want to go back even further, if
you want to go back to the eighties and the
NBA Draft lottery, I don't know about you, but I've
been told allegedly that the reasoning Patrick Ewing ended up
with the New York Knicks because the envelope was frozen.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Hey listen, it's hot in the summer, and if I
fill a cold envelope, I'm gonna know which one is which.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It's just the NBA has got this weird history where
they I don't know if it's on purpose. I'm not
gonna say it's on purpose because it's all alleged, but
they traffic in some very suspicious activity.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Well, let's stay in traffic. Let's be all up in
the hole lane.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Okay, Lebron James from where Northeast Ohio.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Who happens to get the number one pick? Cleveland?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Lebron goes there, right, Lebron leaves Cleveland. Man, I'm sorry, Cleveland.
I can't believe y'all lost the biggest player in the
league as Shime and all that good stuff. For at least,
that's a shame. It'd be crazy if we just happen
to give y'all a number one pick.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
I'm just saying. I'm just saying, man, I've been here before,
New Orleans. I know that Anthony Davis just forced a
way out of town. That's a terrible thing.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
It's it's just happened to be this.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
But you know what, it worked out that you guys
just want the draft lottery to the greatest draft prospect
of the last ten years.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Im Williamson just coincid, Dick Quinky Dinky man Dallas, you
lost Luca y'all traded him.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Oh man, that's wild.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Well there's another big time college star that everybody loves.
Just be crazy if he just became available. And I
alley you if you just number one pick when you
had a what two chance of getting it. I'm just
saying with my tinfoil illumitum hat on that. Uh, the
NBA does have some suspicious things that coincidentally tend to
(12:48):
happen quite often.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Roger, Yeah, no, why do you think it is the
NBA that this happens to?
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And you know, actually I actually actually have answer. I
think more than anything, I think you'll feel me on this.
One player can change the end, be your team, your
organization much easier. Yes, aside from five to six quarterbacks
in the NFL, one player doesn't make that much of
a difference.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
For instance, let's.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Say, uh, if I took away Justin Jefferson, the Vikings
will be sick. But if I gave you another, you know,
if you're another receiver stepped up, you can still compete
and have a chance to win. Now, if I take
away Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson, we got
to know a whole another conversation.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
The Cowboys can lose Micah and if they go on
a row, you never know.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Mess around to be you know, eleven and six sneak
in the postseason, but they could be okay. But if
I give you twenty one year old Lebron, James Derrick Rose,
Kobe Bryant, Shaq, Steph Curry, you know these young guys
that you can have potentially for seven, eight to twelve years,
that can change the trajectory or franchise forever.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Tim Duncan forever, Patrick Ewing.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
The Knicks didn't win, but they were always competitive for
ten to fifteen years. And Orlando, you get shat, what
do you do? You go straight to the finals? A
couple of seasons later, Cleve against Lebron. What do they
do go to the finals way before they were supposed
to know?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Seven?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
You know, Steph Curry changed the entire direction of the franchise.
So my point is the NBA, little things like that
can change your franchise for quite a bit of time
versus the NFL, where it's much harder.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Well speaking and changing the direction of a franchise. There's
a franchise in the NFL that would wish that their
star pass rusher would change the speed and is a dometer.
That was a terrible segment, but we'll get into that next.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
It wasn't bad at all. I love it.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Joe Corey, former NFL agent, CBS Sports NFL analysts, getting
ready to join us here in about five or six minutes.
Looking forward to that right now, Rob G and I
getting ready to talk about Miles Garrett, who's been having
a little bit of an issue, actually a lot of
bit of issue at this point with the roads. Here's
Miles Garrett when he was impressed about it.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
What is it like to be in that car and
seeing that it's predominant preak up to more than.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
One hundred mile pro I do honestly rather talk about
football on this team than anything I'm doing off field,
other than the back to school no event that I
did the other day. But I mean, people want to know.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
I want to know about that.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
People want to know a lot of things. Daggd. We
do want to know. That was a file question. What
does it feel like?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
That was such a set up question, right because if
you just ask it, maybe he knows where it's going
early He's like, I ain't trying to hear that.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
But when you.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Try to find a way to do like, oh g
golly shucks, you know, I just wish I could ride
around like that.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Never gone that fast before, I've never.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Go I haven't had one of some of the cars
that you've been able to drive. You think you might
bait him in actually answering that, and that is absolutely
not the case. So uh, for context, the what the
reporter was asking there, Miles Garrett has now been ticketed
eight times, Rob just geez eight times for speeding. And
(18:11):
what makes it even more interesting to me is that
somebody will say, all right, well, that's not that big
of a deal, right, I mean, we all speed.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I'll be the first one to say that I've got
speeding tickets, right. But when you.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Start to add up to eight and not eight in
his life since he was sixteen, you're talking eight since
he's been a Brown and that's an absurd amount of number.
But also when it starts to affect Rob g to me,
your actual on field play, that's when I really have
an issue because this isn't something where it's all leave
him alone.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
That's his personal life, blah blah blah. We can move on.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
No, he actually had to miss time on the field
because he got into a wreck a few years back.
He got into a car crash that messed him up,
beat him up pretty bad, and he had to miss
a game. So now you're talking about an habitual issue
that is a problem that is affecting the game play,
that is affecting me. If I'm the Browns and ownership
and more importantly, just as someone who would care about
(19:04):
your life. If I'm a friend or if I'm you know,
a leader on the team. It's affecting your health. It
could be it could have been dangerous. You could have
not gotten back up from that accident. Someone could have
been killed. How many conversations have me, you and Rob
Parker have had over the last couple of months about this, yep,
Rashie Rice.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Yeah, to be an example, Uh huh. So this is
concerning from the best player on our team, supposed to
be a leader on our team, and now I got
to look at the team as a whole because Shadora
and got a couple already. He ain't even been there
that long. So what the heck is going on in Cleveland?
You know what?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I was just in Cleveland last week or a week
and a half ago, whatever it was, and I can
tell you what. The city is clean, the downtown is
bigger than you think. But ain't nobody there. And maybe
that's the problem. They got these free roads and people
think they are hanging out with Fast and Furious and
they're doing it for the family.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
What is going on with Miles Garrett.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
Rob jamily family? You with the nail out of the dead.
First off, of course, it's a safety issue, right, Like
it's one thing like you know around here you get
cot speeding on what eighty five eighty seven. You don't
really have that much open road in LA to really
open it up, right, This dude's hitting one hundred on
the regular, to a point where they got to ask him, Michael,
what does it feel like to go one hundred miles
an hour? Because you do it basically every week and
(20:19):
a half, I feel like you know all about it, right,
So like that's number one. But number two I think
this is a bigger conversation is this is indicative as
to why the Cleveland Browns is such a dumpster fire
and have been. Because you could point to the quarterback situation,
and that's true, right, But Miles Garrett, in addition to
being the best player that they've had there, you know,
(20:40):
basically in my lifetime, he is supposed to be the
leader of the team. And when the leader of the
team is number one, this reckless off the field and
do it something like this repeatedly over and over, it
sets a point to where the leadership is not there.
And this is something that was actually talked about by
the athletics Jason Lloyd back in March when he signed
that contracts. He said in his article quote, It's well
(21:02):
known within the Browns organization, Miles Garrett frequently late to
the facility. He skipped mandatory team activities on multiple occasions,
and normally veterans will police this kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
The problem is.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
He's the veteran, right, there's no one there to police him,
and in a situation.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
To police exactly, and the situation like this.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
I'm not saying that this is the reason it happened,
But when you see your best player, your leader, getting
popped for speeding on an annual basis, I'm not shocked
in that Shador Sanders, a young, impressionable rookie, would get
caught doing something similar like that. That you're setting the
tone for the team and the franchise when your best
player keeps doing stuff like this.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
You want to know ROI.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
I know he's been questions about leadership, question about being
lay question about the.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Tickets and all that. You want to know how I
know how you know?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Because if we were to play that back, and the
first thing he says is, you know, I just want
to talk about my charitable acts when you start going
to the charitable axe in your charitable foundations?
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Did I know something up? You know, I just want
to talk about what I mean to the community. Yeah,
something up?
Speaker 1 (22:07):
You know, so automatically know that. Uh but you yeah,
you bring up I mean, listen, you're right about it.
He's supposed to be the face of the franchise because
at that time, up until now and even now, we
still don't.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Know who the face is. As far as a quarterback.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
You gotta have him participating in being exactly where he
needs to be. So hopefully, hopefully man on a serious
now and we're joking right now, but on a serious
hell tip, hopefully he'll learn from his lesson Robbie, because
that could have been really bad for him. You know
what I mean, that he could have not gotten up. Yeah,
he already he's already flipped the car once exactly. And
he's too big to be flipping cars on these streets. Facts,
(22:40):
way way too big. All right, On the way we have,
we're gonna have a conversation on the other side of
the trending with Joel Corey, former NFL agency, Best Sports
NFL analysts.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
You're looking forward to that right now, man, boss. Uh,
we we'll already ask you so to the antez at.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
S.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Yes see manyana, yes, good job. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 10 (23:13):
Well, we've got a lot of NFL going on right now.
It's Week three of the NFL preseason. Jake Elliott has
hit two field goals for the Eagles, a fifty one
yard field goal and a fifty three yard field goal,
and they're on top of the Jets six zero store
early in the second quarter. Joe Milton with the rushing
touchdown puts Cowboys on the scoreboard against the Falcons seven
zero halfway through the first Late in the first quarter
(23:35):
of Vikings up on the Titans three zero, and the
Bears and the Chiefs just got going in their preseason game.
Earlier today, the Commanders traded running back Brian Robinson Junior
to the San Francisco forty nine ers for a six
round pick in twenty twenty six, and multiple reports that
the Vikings and the Panthers have had trade talks involving
Carolina wide receiver Adam Thielen. In baseball, the Giants are
(23:56):
on top of the Brewers to zero. Top of the
second inning. Guardians are edging the one zero bottom of
the second. Also, Ranger center fielder Evan Carter con miss
the rest of the regular season.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
With the fractured right wrist.
Speaker 10 (24:07):
The Rays are up on the Cardinals right now, five
to one, bottom of the third, all met so far
against the Braves seven to one, top of the fourth inning.
Blue Jay is up on the Marlins three to one,
top of the sixth. The Royals have a three to
one lead over the Tigers after five innings. The Orioles
have cut their deficit to one against the Astros. Houston
up four to three, top of the fifth. Red Sox
and Yankees are scoreless, but the fans still got a show.
(24:31):
A squirrel went crazy in the fourth inning at Yankee Stadium,
and obviously it's kind of hard to catch a scroll.
It happened for I saw a whole minute of the
squirrel running around, so I don't know how long it
took for them to actually get the squirrel. So even
though it's a scoreless game, at least the fans got
a little action of some sort. The Nationals have tied
the game against the Phillies. It's three to three, bottom
of the sixth inning. Back to you guys, thank you
(24:53):
get it out as much too Gusta, all right, it's
the odd couple.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
We got Rob d I for Rob Barker, Kilvill, Washington
on a funky flashback Friday. We're joined now by Joel Corey,
former NFL Agen CBS Sports NFL analyst Corey Joel on
X and by the way, if you got akd E
STEFP back, Joy's not cooperating some days your body's just
like nope. Thankfully on those days there's a lead with
just one pill. Leave provides up to twelve hours of
(25:18):
paying relief so you can keep moving. Use as directed, Joel.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
What's going on? How you doing doing great?
Speaker 1 (25:23):
How you guys doing.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
We're doing great, man, thank you for asking.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
We're doing better than a Cowboys fan on this here Friday.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
What is going on?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
We got Jerry beefing with agents. We got Jerry ignoring
agents and trying to do back alley or back of
the club deals in Vegas, signing Mike into some deal
on the napkin.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
What's up, Joel? How this can't happen right?
Speaker 8 (25:47):
Well, this isn't anything news for Jerry. He's been trying
to circumvent agents for over thirty years. When I first
got started that with the client that my bosses are representing,
Jimmy Smith, and that draft ride receivers weren't. Teams are
(26:12):
waiting to take wide receivers. And what Jerry did was
get Jimmy on the phone while they're on the clock
and tell them we're going to take you, but you
have to agree to this particular below market contract. Jimmy's
a little anxious because the draft isn't going the way
we thought. We thought he might be a lead first
round pick instead of second round pick. He agrees to it.
(26:35):
When he outs to my bosses, they're pretty upset about it.
Called Jerry and tell them we don't have an agreement.
You're negotiating of us and a market contract got done
shortly thereafter. So this isn't new for Jerry.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
Well, Joe, isn't there protocol I have to imagine this
protocols in place to prevent us kind of thing? Because
if that was the case, then why wouldn't every agent
just contact his player in the locker room, you know,
up in my suite whatever to get a deal done
and cut the agent out. Isn't there something that would
safeguard this?
Speaker 8 (27:09):
Yeah, Well it's something the NFLPA didn't force any type
of safeguards, but you know Jerry is going to do
something like this, so you really make your players aware
that he is going to approach you. And what Micah
should have done is at best, say I think I'm
(27:33):
the best defensive player in the NFL and I should
be paid accordingly, and you work everything else out with
my agent. Don't engage in any back and forth. So
that's where I put a little bit of the blame
on Micah as Bryant had an interesting way of dealing
with that several years ago, from what he said on
(27:55):
a podcast last year that he asked Jerry and if
Garry could cover him on the football field, and he's like, no,
I get destroyed, and he posed the question to Jared,
then why do you think I would be able togotiate
with you? And that ended it and get it to
deal with DES's representatives.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I want to ask you this one, Joe switching gears
a little bit here, something we talked about in our
show a handful of weeks ago. But I feel like
I kind of just rolled on and that is the
arbitration rule, and I found the NFL was urging team
owners to restrict fully guaranteed contract for quarterbacks after the
Deshaun Watson deal, and we know that it got found
to come out. They had an arbitration about it and
(28:38):
they found inclusion. But you had the NFLPA not even
telling the players for six months until they were kind
of forced to tell them, like, oh, yeah, my bad,
I was meant to tell you that.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
How big of a deal is that? And how big
is it a.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Deal that you have the NFLPA not even telling the
players and kind of having to find this out on
their own and when they could be maybe using that
in the favor of the players.
Speaker 8 (29:00):
That's a huge deals that it was concealed. That's one
of the big reasons why Lloyd how is no longer
the executive director. Yeah, I'm sure the agents of quarterbacks
and other high profile players would have loved to have
known that information right after the decision was rendered so
(29:23):
they could try to use it to their advantage and negotiations.
Oh I don't know why the nfl PA wouldn't try
to weaponize that against the NFL. But then again, Lloyd
How was the guy that, when at first asked about
an eighteenth game, essentially said who loves no football? Who
doesn't love more football? ID when your proper response should
(29:48):
be will have an eighteenth game over my dead bite?
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Right right?
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Joe Corey, Formulative AGENCYBS Sports, You're on the odd couple. Well,
speaking of that, Deshaun Watson, you know Contra David Willigetev
represented Deshaun Watson, also rids of Michael Parsons. Looking at
his history, like five of his biggest clients have all
at one point demanded a trade in order to get
(30:14):
the money that they're after, which to me feels like
a new kind of thing in the NFL. We've seen
this a lot in the NBA, but this feels like
a new development in the NFL. Could you imagine a
situation where this kind of does become par for the
course for the best players, where it's like, Hey, if
I'm not going to get the money that i'm asking for,
I'm going to demand the trade. I'm gonna scrub all
my socials and eventually you're going to give it to me.
(30:34):
Because that's what great players, that's what they get.
Speaker 8 (30:39):
Player empowerment in the NBA is much different than the NFL.
What you see in a contract dispute, part of the
agent calculus or playbook, it is to demand a trade.
Trey Henderson demanded one early in the offseason. Karen mcclaurin
demanded one. Michaeh Parsons dan quinn said at the time
(31:03):
with mclaurin's trade request, that's just part of the business.
So Watson was a little bit different. He was a
little upset about how the head coaching process took place
in how his suggestions were ignored. He was under contract
for four years at the time, and they mutually agreed
(31:26):
that he wouldn't play that year. The Texans didn't want
him around after all the sexual assought allegations came out.
He didn't want to play for them either, so he
was basically on the fifty three man roster getting paid.
They wasted roster spot in him. So that was a
little bit different than the other ones.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
I want to ask you this.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
You mentioned it earlier the eighteen games. You kind of
were joking, hey, over my dead body. But is that
because it already is in the air and the NFL's
the Bohemian and the king of sports and North America
specifically the States, is it almost an inevitability meeting once
it's out there. Once we've talked about it, shows like
(32:07):
this converse about it, It's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (32:11):
Yeah, it's going to happen. I'm not sure if it
will be before the end of this collective our agreement,
which runs through the twenty thirty season. The NFL has
the right to opt out of the media rights deals
I think after twenty twenty nine, so they would want
to have the eighteenth game in place by then, but
(32:32):
you're gonna need to negotiate with the players union if
they ever get their act together, to do it sooner
rather than later. One of the things that didn't help
is some of the players came out and said, as
long as the extra game check and a bye week,
I'm okay, No, the eighteenth game should be much more
valuable to the owners than that. Those should be given
(32:56):
that you're gonna get an extra game checked and by week,
but there should be substantial concessions for that. I'm not
optimistic that the union will get substantial concessions because anytime
there is a workstop, it doesn't matter what sport, the
bees meeting billionaires will outlast him the millionaires. At least
(33:20):
when the NBA has had work stoppages, the players have
more resolved, and we'll take it into the season. The
last time in twenty eleven, the NFL players caved before
any preseason games are played.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Well, well, you're gonna have to watch and wait and
see and now once, like I said, Joel, once this
is out there, I feel like it's an inevitability.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Uh, it's gonna happen.
Speaker 8 (33:41):
It's gonna happen, no doubt.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
And by the way, Joe and Robgy they care about
so much about safety, let's just keep that in games.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
All right, Joe, thank you so much. Appreciate you man,
Thank you Joe.
Speaker 8 (33:52):

Rob Jada's time now for an impromptu shop talk.
Speaker 4 (35:05):
That's right at his shop talk here on the Ad
Couple the same when we talk about something happen outside
of the world of sports, and this week's topic comes
to us courtesy of our very own Rob Parker, because
as you know, he's been traveling Parker, thank you, traveling
the globe about a week now. We're doing it all
next week two. And as a result, he's been a
lot of airports so earlier on Friday, he was taking
(35:28):
a shuttle from his hotel to the airport to go
to his next stop, and according to Rob, here's what
he tweeted out. I've seen it all. The shuttle driver
from my hotel just refused my tip because it wasn't enough.
Shaking my head hashtag the shame of it all. People
(35:50):
have asked him how much he gave. He's leaving that
up to your imagination, which I feel makes us even better.
Oh yeah, but dub your thoughts.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
First thing I said on his Instagram Rob G I said, well,
did the tip jingle because it sounded like you might
have gave him seventy five cent, fifty cent whatever was
in his pocket. He said no, He said, nobody carries
change anymore. But it does make you wonder With Rob.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Rob is the most frugal, cheapest person and also the
biggest spender. I know, it's a weird complexity.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
If you ask me the thing, I'll tell you if
he's gonna spend it or not, and it'll be weird.
He'll literally walk out of a store because the soda
went up forty cents from two days ago.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
But it'll walk out with.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
A Gucci hat, Gucci hoodie, and his very expensive car
and it won't make any sense. The duality of man,
the duality of Rob Parker. It kind of reminds you
of that Chris Rock character. And I'm gonna get you, sucker,
how much for one rid? And he complains, how much
a lot? How about you just let me eat half
a rid? And ultimately at the end he pulls out
(36:54):
a lot of money. You're like, wait a minute, you've
been complaining about the price of ribs. He just pulled
out about one thousand dollars. So that's Rob Parker. I
have a feeling it was uh, probably insultingly low, that
it wasn't worth me say I was carrying all your stuff,
took your luggage out, blah blah whatever.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
It's just what even just you you you keep it bro.
So if you had to guess how much, was it.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
Two dollars and the signed a little greater or less
than two or less?
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Like I think it was two dollars or less, all right.
Speaker 10 (37:23):
Manzi even if it was that you don't turn down bills.
Speaker 4 (37:27):
I never turn it down to like, even if it.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
Was one dollar.
Speaker 10 (37:30):
That's why there's there's something we don't know here.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
I love Rob, but there's something we don't know.
Speaker 10 (37:34):
Even if it was one dollar, the person takes it
and maybe rolls their eyes, but if it's bills, you.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
Just take it. Well, go ahead, Rob, gie, well they
under two dollars, under two dollars, go.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
Ahead, go ahead, doth no, go ahead, I'm gonna okay.
So my thing is, I yes, I agree with you guys.
I believe it was two dollars. I'm gonna say it
was a dollar. That's what I think it was. But
here's where I think. This is why I wish Rob
would answer a question. But he's not going to think
he's doing it on purpose. What I really believe happened
is he didn't give him a dollar or two singles right.
(38:08):
What I think most likely happened. Rob gave him a
five or a ten and said, hey, can I get
change back? And that's what led to him saying, you
know what, might as well keep it.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
I don't need that to absolutely he gave him a
ten and asked for nine back, and the person said,
I ain't.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
Nobody got time for that. It's not even worth me
digging through my.
Speaker 1 (38:31):
Purse, my this, my that, my wallet trying to find
a change, you know, kicking up dust trying to find it.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
Just here you go, man, I took you to where
you needed to go, Terminal five? Is that way? Here's bad,
here's your luggage. Have a great day. You tell me
you can't break a ten for me?
Speaker 4 (38:46):
On pat you're six spender on the show. What do
you think Rob tip number one and numbers? Do you
have an issue with the guy giving it back?
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Well, here's the thing. I ain't passing up no money.
Speaker 9 (38:56):
If I'm getting tip, it doesn't matter if it's a
dollar fifty cents or ten or ten dollars, I'll be
like money yay.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Number two? What did I think Rob gave I?
Speaker 9 (39:06):
Like your idea of the concept of oh he gave
him a ten just for you know, a dollar back
or whatever, Like I I'll say a dollar fifty. He's
gonna do the Hank Hill thing, like so you can
work a dollar fifty dollar fifty so you could work
towards better next time.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
That's funny. Yeah, this is Do you think.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
He also got his bag of clothes in there? Like hey, no, no, no, no,
leave leave that on the shuttle because I want you
to keep that.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
That might actually be with the person was completely over.
I don't want any tips from you. Matter of fact,
what if that is the tip? So minutes money? What
if that is the tip? Roger with six foot four
clothes And it was like hey, and all it said
was odd. Couple this odd. Couple that with Chris Brussard
and he was like, you can have these marry that.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
You just bought new furniture. What happened? So you know
you got money fun out of your pockets. You just
told me about it.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Yeah, oh my gosh, it was it hurt? It hurt?
But have anything? I think Rob probably gave like a
dollar dollars.
Speaker 4 (40:03):
And would you give it back if someone gave you
a dollar or two dollars?
Speaker 2 (40:06):
No, no, you wouldn't give it back.
Speaker 10 (40:08):
It's this change thing you said. You just wouldn't give
back bills. You would be annoyed by it, but you
wouldn't give it back.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Allow it.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
But Manti recognized him and they were like, this dude
has big money. He's got a national radio show, he
does this, he does that, and this man just gave
me a dollar or two. Man, I'm good bro, keep it.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
You think put him on World Stars? So bad? World Star?
Does that exist? Yes? They're going on Twitter? Oh gosh,
does that exist.
Speaker 10 (40:37):
I think you guys are right that you probably asked
for change, and that's when the person was like, never mind,
you keep it.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
Just go ahead, bro, it ain't even worth more than
I do. Yeah, I mean that. That's that's absolutely what happened.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
But maybe we'll get the truth out of him when
he comes back, or maybe somebody oppress him enough on
social media and he'll give it to us. I think
he was mad when I said did a jingle though
the actual tip he would give him sixty five cents
or something like that.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
I think he was you're on the outs with defrom
right now? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Oh yeah, that don't bring that up. You might not
be on the show anymore. H
