Speaker 3 (00:48):
Should be bell.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
We got big stuff coming up on messy big stuff
coming up on a big NFL story. Could see a
trade sooner rather than But you know, you and I
were off last night and we filled it during the day.
And I still can't get over this story a day later,
because I see it and it makes me giggle and
(01:11):
I feel bad and I go, this is the most
bizarre story, and I really I can't get over that
this hasn't gotten way way more attention. Baker Mayfield's a
new starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Not not
that Mayfield's is starting quarter it was him or Kyle
trantk we knew it was Baker Mayfield. However, yesterday news
(01:32):
broke that Baker Mayfield has filed a petition in district
court in Texas requesting information regarding the misappropriation of twelve
million dollars of his by a firm where family members work. Okay,
so he's got a part of the money that he's
made over the course of the NFL career, that's twelve
(01:53):
million dollars was invested somehow used financially in Camwood Kap
Management Group, a group that is managed by his father
and his brother.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
So basically, here's the money, some money that Baker Mayfield
made with an investment company that he has that's led
by his father and his brother. And he's filing papers
because he wants to know what happened to twelve million
of my dollars. It's been a long time coming, he says.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I can't I can't imagine.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Hey, Dad, something we got to talk about Yeah, it's fine.
Now Dad, we're gonna talk about something. Yeah, yea, yeah,
yea yeah yeah. I can't even dad, Dad, I gotta
go through court. What'd you do with my money?
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Dad?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
And bro?
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Dad, Bro? What'd you do? What did you do with
my money? What do you do about? This story?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Is so bizarre and the fact that, as you said, Mayfield,
Sen's a long time coming. I mean, this is money
that his dad and his brother, that he trusted them
with to turn it into more money or at least
not lose. And now he says, I don't know what
happened to this money, and you know, I can't get
a straight answer from them, which is why I gotta
go through the court to figure out what went wrong
(03:01):
with my cash.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
Yeah. No, it's amazing. Right. He filed a suit against
six different defendants, six different companies to provide financial records. Look,
this isn't unlike the Michael Orr case in that you're
just saying, hey, show me the books, show me the
line items, get me some forensic accountants in there, and
(03:25):
let's figure out where the money went in the summary.
The other one obviously has all the permutations and all
the fighting that's gone on in the media and behind
the scenes. This one quote from January twenty eighteen through
the present, more than twelve million dollars transferred from petitioners'
personal accounts and routed through various entities and investments. That's
(03:47):
where it starts to get a little bit loose, right,
various entities. So you know, it's one thing, Hey, I
helped you pay off some debt, and now I'd like
to get my money back. This is twelve million dollars.
Now it's one.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Core, Dad, where's my money?
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Dad?
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Dad?
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Of his NFL earnings to date. And look, maybe you know,
short term pops thought he was giving him a little
bit of a solid, helping him out. Twelve million dollars.
They've been quote deprived of information and documents needed to
analyze whether their assets have been misappropriated unquote. So did
(04:24):
you just make bad investments?
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Right?
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Did you get caught up in a bunch of NFTs
and and and some kind of online grift where someone
said they were a prince and needed some help. I
don't know. But the fact of the matter is Mayfield
and his wife are raising their hand, going, yeah, show
me the money. Where'd it go?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
The money's been misappropriated from column A and been appropriated
into column B.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
I'm sorry, that's good.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I mean, I know it's one thing to show a
bunch of records that you know, you did a half
assed job of being a steward of his money and
you just you know, your fiduciary responsibility of you know,
not losing his ass. Uh, you failed him there. It's
another if you just siphoned it off into other other
things without you know, the disclosures. Nah. Now we got
(05:13):
to start asking. I mean, they have some houses. I mean,
what are they gonna find when they want to finally
trace this cash? What did all that money go?
Speaker 3 (05:21):
See?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
I was because I'm thinking today, like what if my
dad stole my money? Like what if my dad stole
money from me? Like it would take me like eight
seconds to fund. I would jump in his apartment. I'd say, Dad,
where's my money? But I know what you're talking about,
because he would have it like under a magazine or something.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Or like a show in cash.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Yeah, my dad would like he wouldn't really have it
hidden very well. I could I could find in this
apartment very quickly. I know you're talking about dad, where's
my money?
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Now?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Jimmy, I don't know what, Jimmy, I just I just
find hard to believe that you could you can go
to that kind of length allegedly. Uh, hey, I gotta
hide this money from my son. I don't, it's really
it's just the story is just badling And I don't
know why it's not any more attention because it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Well because at this point it's now the all right,
this is part one. The Michael Or case has just
so many other wrinkles to it. It's more salacious. There's
an Oscar winner, there's a movie, there's a book, there's
multiple books. Can you be adopted as an adult? Yes,
yes you can. All of these things that go through
(06:25):
and the bigger thing, you know, even with the Ore
case to tie him together, Jason, if he was under
the conservatorship this entire time, right, they still haven't dissolved it.
That means they were running all of his NFL money too,
So he probably wants to get a good grasp of
what the hell was going on there while he was
at it, and not just whatever.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
I mean.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Look on a relative basis, very small amount would have
been earned from the movie and and he would be residuals. Right,
we're talking about his NFL monies as well. That would
have still been under the care of the two wies.
Same thing with Mayfield here, He's like, all right, there's
a quarter of my money pre test ax that I
now would like to uh to find out. And you say, well,
(07:05):
how does this happen? Well, if you're still living well
and still going through your paces. I know it sounds insane,
but you can push it off that it's something you're
not paying attention to on a daily basis. And you
know you also had your dad in charge of it,
so you trusted he wouldn't absconde with it.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
I'm absconding with all that gun.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
See you later, I allegedly allegedly allegedly allegedly allegedly.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
I mean, you siphon it off a little bit at
a time. What's hanging on the wall allegedly allegedly allegedly,
I mean, but that's the thing now. The paper trail
in all all forms is absolutely fascinating.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Twitter, and how about a fresco Mike gets swollen down
the Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harman
Lott allegedly allegedly from the tireq dot Com Studios too.

headline tonight, Like I said, we have a lot to
get to tonight. I don't know if this is because
the team had been playing so badly, or if it's
because a guy that we love hit three home runs.
But the Yankees are front page news tonight because Aaron
(08:33):
Judge hit three home runs and the Yankees break a
nine game losing streak nine games on the same day
that Yankee general manager Brian Cashman calls this season a disaster, says,
the Yankee season right now is a disaster, and everybody's
accountable when it comes to finding out who's responsible.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
It's just, you know, it's been a disaster this season,
and yeah, it's definitely a shock. And certainly I don't
think anybody the fence from our player group, from our
coaches or manager, or even outside the organization saw would
have predicted this.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
I mean, just think about this.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
The Mets have a better percentage chance to make the
playoffs right now than the Yankees do. The Mets have
a better percentage chance than the Yankees do. This is outstanding, Jason.
How is zero better than zero? A one point three
is better than point three. It's a whole one percent better.
It's a whole one percent better, man, It's all about
error better. That's happening. Man's uh, look, we told you
(09:37):
what's gonna happen. And we talked to John Paul Morosei
early in the show and he says, ah, he's pretty
He seems to think that that Brian Cashman's going to
keep his job.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Not happening.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Not have The Yankees need a complete and total overhaul
because Brian Cashman's the guy that needs to be replaced
so you can loosen things up again. Cashman won't sign
the big players like the Yankees used to. He won't
trade prospect like he used to being able to get
proven players to come in that can succeed for the Yankees.
He's not taking advantage of what the Yankees have that's
(10:08):
an advantage over everybody else in Major League Baseball, no
matter who they have in the in their farm system.
Every other team thinks they're more valuable than every other team.
Yankees and the Dodgers have farm system players that everybody
thinks they're better than our guys. They do it right,
the Dodgers especially, but the Yankees for a long time.
And Brian Cash, I mean, he's driven to the middle.
(10:29):
He's afraid to make a move now because he doesn't
want to get second guest or have some sort of
resume that the team can point to. And Steinbrenner can say, well,
you did this, this, this, and this, and this trade
didn't work out, and you trade away this player.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
And he was good.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Oh, we have to replace you. But it's time.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
The Yankees aren't trending upward. This is not a quick fix.
When you finish last, you don't go from last place
to first place in Major League Baseball. You just don't
do it. It's too difficult. You can do it in
the NFL. You go from five to twelve to the
super Bowl. It happens because that's the way the league is.
Ajor League Baseball it's not that way. And you're looking
at what kind of process going to be to go
from last place to be able to bring in what
(11:07):
you need, which is you need more hitters, you need
starting pitching, you need bullpen, yank, you need everything. There's
nothing they don't need. They need to figure out a
new way to look at things and to make this
team unrecognizable from what it looks at right now. And
that's why offseason it's gonna be a new GM, it's
gonna be a new manager, and it's gonna be a
lot of new players, and they're gonna eat some cash.
(11:28):
They're gonna move some guys. They're seeing that Steve Cohen
was able to do it. They'll eat cash on Stanton.
Maybe they'll lead some cash on Garrett Cole and bring
in some prospects or other players and turn Garrett Cole
from one great starter into two okay starters. Whatever it's
going to be, there's gonna be all kinds of new
for the Yankees next year. Front office, manager, players, they
(11:48):
will and they should be unrecognizable from the team they
are right now, because this is not a team that
suddenly you can say, hey, we'll have a bounce back year,
and no, this is not a bounce back team.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
This is not all all we got.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
Yes, and you know, yes, I had.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Some injured players everybody's got injured players, but no one's
injured so much that, Oh, if they all come back,
we're gonna be in first place. No, not happening. You
are now behind every other team in the American League East.
You are not as good as the young Orioles. Tampa
Bay is there every year. Toronto is getting better and better.
They're a young team every year. Even the Red Sox.
You thought at least be better than the Red Sox. Nope,
(12:21):
that's not gonna happen this year. Red Sox are better
than you are. Yeah, this is complete. Let's start over
with a new strategy, new philosophy, and let's go spend
some money.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
No, I appreciate you, and I like that you're going
down that road. Would you believe they are fifty million
dollars over the luxury tax threshold?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
And if they get rid of gin Carlo Stanton, they
are five hundred million dollars under the step.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
In fact, they're not paying anything out.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Who the hell is taking that contract. Let's let's just
be real here. As we go through, you have three
guys make it over thirty million, Stanton at thirty two,
Judge at forty, Coal at thirty six from our good
friends at Spoke Track. You took a shot my guy,
Carlos Rodon. He can't stay healthy, He's not been good.
He's making twenty two million dollars. You got a couple
of guys at fifteen trying to resurrect the great DJ Lemayhew,
(13:11):
former batting champion, and then you drop off precipitously from there.
I get it, but it's not like they're they're not
spending money. And this is a blip in what is
normally a ninety to one hundred win team. Right, this
is everything that could go wrong did and in the
year where you had struggles, because remember they were over
(13:31):
five hundred for a very long time, and then you
have this recent skid.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Alice smoking mirrors. They were lucky to I can't believe that.
But all of a sudden, the Orioles are good. All
of a sudden, everybody's good.
Speaker 7 (13:42):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
But that's what I'm.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Saying is the world went topsy turvy on you all
of a sudden. This division to suddenly, you know, just
abandon all hope. He who enter here, I don't know
that I go to that route. And it's not like
Big Stein's coming back from the grave to suddenly have
a giant checkbook to say, all right, sign another couple
three hundred million dollar guys. No, you've already done that.
(14:05):
You paid your own guys, and now you have to
sit and try to figure it out or see if
you can find some sucker to pawn them off. Hey,
you just gonna take some of those cans you have
senerations away.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
You have to see that.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Okay, I gotta take a page from the Mets and
Steve Cohen who says I'll eat this money and spend
a lot more money. Because if Steve Cohen has the money,
you know the Yankees have the money, all right, So
it's okay, what can we do to move on from stay?
If we eat all of this money or or half
of it or whatever it is, can we move on?
Can we move on from Garrett Cole? And then instead
of giving one guy three hundred million, you give a
few guys fifty to seventy five hundred. You gotta go
(14:39):
use what is at your disposal. For the Yankees, it's
always been money. It's always been spending and going out.
If you spend over, you spend over. Right, That's how
it works. The Mets saw this didn't work, but they're
still gonna spend money because this is how we're gonna
We got to use the resources available to us. We
gotta use this because you can't do this in Kansas City. Yeah,
but against that's a new guy with a shiny new toy.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Let's see a and once he got some years under
his fingernails. Right now, he's still in the honeymoon face.
Gonna keeps it ten years. I bet you he's a
different guy.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Oh after three World Series, sure, you know, maybe he'll
back it off a little bit. Look happen right after
watching the Braves win three more? Hey, look, eventually Dodgers
a few more. Eventually, all these Braves players are gonna say,
I'm holding out. I'm not reporting for five million dollars
when I'm an MVP.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
I know I signed that contract, but you're not gonna
pay me five million dollars this year. I want way
more than that. The Braves are gonna have their problem
at some point. It's kids coming for them too. Twitter
and out about a Fresca X. At how about a
Fresca X. I'd swollen home. Jason is with Mike Harmon

Yankees in the spring. All New Yankees coming up next,
(15:46):

Speaker 3 (16:13):
Congratulations with the Yankees. They win tonight.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
Hooray. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
You know.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
I talked to my dad before he came in and
I said, what's going on. He goes, I'm watching the
Yankees just there winning for once. I go, boy, if
they lost tonight, be the longest losing streak since nineteen thirteen.
He goes, just got to get just clean house, just
fire everybody. Steinbrenner should fire himself, everybody should be new.
Everybody knew. And I'm like, I agree. I'm with you, Dad,
(16:43):
I'm with you.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
I'm with you.
Speaker 7 (16:45):
I know.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yankee fans. Look, Yankees and met fans are the same.
It's either everything is the greatest it can be, or
it's the worst it can be. But I'm with them. Yes,
wholesale changes all the way through, like like a hockey
team changing lines. Everybody knew was coming in, all the
new players we can get on the Yankees, new manager,
new GM knew everything, new way of doing things, new
new way to do saber metrics. Everything's got to be new, new, new,
(17:07):
new new new.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
Well, I'll make you feel better though, you know, thinking
about what your guy spent for his franchise. Steinbreder bought
the Yankees for eight million dollars way back in the day.
So there you go.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Yeah, I know, I know.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And every time I hear that stuff, I go, oh, Man,
to be able to have that kind of money that long.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
A time ime value of money back long ago, invest
that extra dollar today, people.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
I'll tell you, you know, it's funny you said that our
next door neighbors for the longest time were original owners
on the on the block where this where the houses
were built, like the whole block went up in nineteen
fifty one, and they were original owners. My my neighbor
is she's ninety five, and she's doing great, and you know,
we see her all the time. And and I remember
when we moved in and I said, oh, you guys
(17:52):
have been here since the block began. Yeah, he goes,
I don't want to tell you what I paid for
my house. And I go because the house right now
is worth like probably almost two million dollars, because it's
just it's la it's it's the it's a big house.
It's probably about two thousand square feet. And I said, oh,
I said, I said, yeah, I guess I don't want
to tell you, all right, what did you pay for it?
Tell me, goes, I paid six thousand dollars for this
house in.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Nineteen fifty one.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
I was going to guess ten.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Oh my god, he goes. Yeah, my mortgage payment was
thirty dollars a month, he goes. And there were months
where where you know, I we had trouble making it.
I didn't know we were gonna make it that month
of going thirty dollars a month, three mortgage favorite thirty dollars.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
I mean, that's a bag of McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
True, it is, well, no, no.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Wait a quarter, it's sandwich.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
That's two and a half orders at McDonald's. That's two
and a half orders. Because we go for Pam and
I and Zoe. It's now instead of the three of
us getting out with about twenty bucks, that's like thirty
five dollars. Yeah, tell you man in that. People think inflation.
These prices are never coming back. We're just used to
them now, and oh I'm inflation. Well we'll take the
price down. We'll take the prices down. No, that's not
coming back. The prices are gonna be. We're just used
(18:57):
to them now. It's okay. We will willing them down
if we absolutely have to. If we notice that we're
not making any money and people are running away from
our product, we will bring those prices down. But what
restaurant have you gone to where the prices have come
back down?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
None? None.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I get they had to raise prices during the pandemic,
and I understand that, right, Okay, I get it supporting
small business, local business. I like supporting chains as well
because I like eating certain places. But now here are
we're out of the pandemic. It's it's it's the end
of twenty twenty three and the prices are still jacked
up to you know twice?
Speaker 3 (19:30):
What the what?
Speaker 1 (19:31):
What the some of the some of the food was
before and it's not coming back down. We're never getting down.
It's just are you used to this money enough? Are
you used to the extra amount you are paying for food,
for services, for something else. If you are, we're keeping
it here. If we notice that you're really not okay,
then then we'll then we'll react. But if we don't
have to react, we're not bringing those prices down. There's
(19:51):
gonna be no hey.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
Soft demand elasticity.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Hey, we're saying we.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Feel I don't know that that's a thing, but I'm
with you. There's no there's no company's gonna have a
message go on, Hey, we hear feel that. You know,
we've been making a lot of money the last few years,
over and over with some money that maybe it should
be a little bit too much. So we're gonna take
these prices down about thirty five percent. No, no, nobody's
doing that. Nobody's doing that. We're just waiting until we
get used to this money and stop complaining and think
(20:17):
about something else. And he's just gonna stay this much.
Speaker 4 (20:19):
It's gonna stay at Jason. The basic premise of price
elasticity in a marketplace is if we raise, say your
cost of a burger buy a dollar if we normally
sell a thousand of them, will we lose a significant number?
What kind?
Speaker 3 (20:35):
What?
Speaker 4 (20:36):
What's the reaction to the price increase of dollars?
Speaker 5 (20:39):
So his burger's two dollars?
Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yeah, you know exactly does It's not like your both
buy it?
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Is it? You know?
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Because of what we spend to market it, are we
at the same level? Do we sell more all of
those things?
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Right?
Speaker 4 (20:54):
It's why when people complain about Disneyland or the price
of concert tickets or whatever, it's like, if if nobody
was going, the prices would come down, we'd have more
groupons for hey, pick this concert for twenty bucks. That
was when you know, you can go to a show
and there's not a lot of demand for sales. But
(21:14):
since we're at multi billion served at your favorite fast
food establishment, doesn't matter, jack it up.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
So price elasticity has nothing to do with the more
burgers I eat, the more elastic my pants need to
be because my waistcots bigger.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
That's not definition two.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Okay, that's what that's the second one. If I want
to okay, don't need an elastic man, that's that's that's there,
you go. That would be my what's your superpower? I
eat as much food as I can and you see
my stomach expand and boy I'll finish.
Speaker 5 (21:43):
Wasn't that fat bastard?
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (21:45):
Yeah, well that's also what's his name back in the
day in the hot dog eating Kobeyashi, right, because he
doesn't have the fat bands, yes, stomach, he.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Would get distended and yeah, get my billet.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
That's a that's a good reference though, U.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
I mean, now you gott explain to the millennials what
Austin Powers is because because they don't know, really, they
don't know Austin Powers.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
They don't know as the guys who talk about eighties
music all.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Night eighties music and you can listen to anywhere. They
don't play the Austin Powers movies on TV.
Speaker 5 (22:13):
I think millennials would know Austin Powers.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Maybe not gen Z though, No, no, no, no, that's what
you gotta worry about now.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
No, well, Jen, No, gen Z doesn't even know what
Saturday Night Live is and it's still on the air.
I just forget about that Twitter. Now about a Fresco
Mike hat swollen down the Jason Smith Show.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
With my best friend Mike Carmon.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Now there's big quarterback news today, You're gonna bring you
a little bit of forty nine Ers head coach Kyle Shanahan,
who met the media today following reports that Rock Perty
is the number one quarterback that's expected, nobody's surprised. Sam
Darnold is the number two quarterback and now Trey Lance
is in limbo and they are wondering how to prom
(22:53):
three with Trey Lance. Could it be a trade, could
it be something else. Here's Niners head coach Kyle Shanahan
with what has happened and what is next now for
a guy they thought was going to be their franchise quarterback.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Do you have any expectations one way or the other
whether he'll be here when you guys be a member
of the forty nine Ers, when you guys put the Steelers.
Speaker 9 (23:12):
I'm really hoping. So, I mean, this isn't a thing
that we're giving up on Trey. This is more of
how Brock played in his seven games, and that was
decided before this season started.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Well for one second, right, Oh, I hope he's still here,
But this is not an indictment of how he's played. Wait,
you can't you can't say you hope he's still gonna
be there when he could? Are you sure by the
beginning of the season, and then say, but this is
not an indictment on how he's played, But we hope
he's still here because we're trying to.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Trade the guy. I mean, come on, man, go on,
go on, can give me something, Kyle Damn slops.
Speaker 9 (23:43):
People looked good, but we do have to make a
decision here, and you only get so many reps at it,
and we feel, you know, starting about ten days ago,
Sam really separated himself and we got to keep it
real in that way. But I feel very, very fortunate
to have both of them here. I really hope when
it's said and done, that all three of these guys
are here. And you never know when that's gonna come up.
(24:05):
We needed four guys last year. Doesn't happen much. But
if we can have Trey as an option here, I
would feel extremely happy about that. I think the other
quarterbacks in our room would, and I think our team would.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Trays a wait, it's not for one second. Wait, I
really hope to have all three guys here. Wait, are
other guys? Is Rock Perty not going to be there?
Sam Darnold? What other guys are going to be there, Kyle,
I don't understand who are you saying? Who's not there?
Who's not gonna be there? You gonna trade? All three guys?
Are all three of those guys gonna go? And Tom
Brady's gonna come in?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Like what what do you? What do you mean?
Speaker 5 (24:34):
Suddenly you hope all three guys are there?
Speaker 10 (24:36):
What a tap?
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Brandon Allen is one a bloodless He is the last
man standing.
Speaker 5 (24:43):
He also said he wishes he had Joe Montana and
Steve jon This is true.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
This is like that scene from Chicago Ladies and Gentlemen
a tap dance. Let me figure my way around it.
We have more from Kyle Shanahan. Let's listen to more
of the Niners head coach.
Speaker 9 (24:57):
One of the better people I've been around, and I
do think he's gonna have a lot of success in
this league. It's been a tough road for him because
he the times he has gotten an opportunity, he ended
up getting hurt and missed that window. And now he's
sending this position. And we'll always try to do right
for Trey. If there's a better situation that his heart's
in and something like that, we're going to make sure
(25:18):
not to do something that hurts him in that way.
So that's stuff that I talked to him about this morning.
That's stuff I'll talk to him about tonight and continue
to talk to him about. But Trey knows how I
feel about him, and I mean, I hope he ends
up being able to be here, and that's the best
thing for him. But we got to see what is
the best thing from now until then.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
So the best thing is going to be in a
third string quarterback on a team that you have no
chance of his sending the starting job. I mean, like
this is the Niners have just I feel like this
entire time with Trey Lance, they have wanted to ignore
strong decisions They could have moved on from him at
any time over the course of the past year and
a half. The guy's never been healthy enough to be
(25:58):
on the field, and when he did get a chance
to play, he didn't distinguish himself enough. But they're so
afraid to do anything, they're gonna wind up now dumping
him for a fifth round pick, a conditional fifth round
pick that moves to a sixth round pick if he
doesn't make the roster, or because another team that's gonna
trade for him, is gonna be a team that sees
him as a curiosity because there'll be in interested teams.
(26:19):
Hey fifth sixth, seventh round conditional sixth round pick for him. Yeah, sure,
you know I could see teams doing that one hundred percent.
I even know some teams off the top of my
head that would go in for Trey Lance thinking a
change of senior will do it. But they had so
many chances, and they were so afraid, they were so
afraid to move on from Jimmy Garoppolo and give Trey
Lance a chance. Then they were afraid to move on
(26:40):
from Trey Lance when they're not gonna allow him to play,
and they luck into it with brock Perty Suddenly here's
a guy who was the last pick of the draft.
It's like they don't deserve that quarterback success. They've tried
and they have butchered everything they have done. But now
there's gets so lucky on a guy who probably would
have been in the Super Bowl last year if he
didn't get hurt in the NFC Championship game. And now
(27:00):
they're gonna be the overwhelming favorites in the NFC because
they got lucky with this guy and all they did
was just misappropriate and get scared of making big, bold
decisions that you have to make with your quarterback. And
now it's still gonna work out for them. It's like,
so the Niners don't deserve that they did deserve to
be able to have. Hey, we have this great quarterback,
but we have brock Purdy going in. Who does happen
(27:20):
to be mister irrelevant? We're not paying him any money
and he could be just as good as anybody else
in the NFC.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
No, no, no, But buried in there was the truth.
Whenever he did get the opportunity, he couldn't stay on
the field. Everybody wants to make fun of Jimmy Garoppolo.
Trey Lance is right there with him. He had his chances,
he couldn't stay on the field. So what do you
do next? Man up? And that guy took it and
he ran with it, and brock Purdy did enough to
where he said, all right, we've got a roster. And
(27:47):
that's the other thing, going back to the forty nine ers,
they were drafting from a position of luxury. Obviously, Jimmy
Garoppolo's injury history and how many games you're gonna get
in a given year, Sure you might as well roll
the old D and D sided die to see what
we come up with. But in the end, the guy's
a winner, and you watched him win when he was
on the field, So it wasn't like you were saying, hey,
(28:10):
Trey Lance is gonna come in and immediately supplant him
after a very limited college experience unless he was just
the wonder kid, right, if he was Nate the Great
on the field instead of you know, working up a whiteboard. Yeah,
there you go, Nerd ten lasso side.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
I didn't say wonder kid. I think you said wonder kid.
I didn't say wonder kid.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
But the idea being that you had a guy who
was a project, and I think we all agreed when
they made the trade to go get him, and you're
operating from a position of if he grows great, we
decided he was a big enough talent to swing for
the fences at the number three pick and give up
what they did in the end, it's now going to
(28:52):
be dissected forever. If here's the players you could have had,
here's what you did. Did he get a fair chance? Yeah? Again,
he got hurt multiple times, and there's only so many
reps you're gonna get when you're on a team that's
expected to win. This wasn't the Jets when they drafted
Zach Wilson. Sorry, friendly fire, but I gotta do it.
Or you know, hey, here's QB one Andy Dalton. Well yeah,
(29:15):
only on social media, and here's Justin Field's coming to
take over. You had a team ready to win. It's
not gonna be hey, you know, let the kid take
his lumps along here because we think, you know, we
can absorb it. No, no, no, you needed someone who
was competent and ready to go as an NFL quarterback.
Now I look at the Vikings right now, your former
(29:36):
hero Nick Mullins is their backup behind Kirk Cousins. Bunny.
So I mean there's one spot, considering it's likely they
want to get out from Cousins after this year anyway.
But you know, for Tran Lance, victim of circumstance, you
ended up going to a good team. Not often are
you drafted that high with a team that doesn't need
you to play today. And then add all the extra
(29:58):
REPSI you don't get as a number one, you're in
this unenviable place in your NFL career. Hopefully there's another shot,
another coach who says, I'm the smartest guy in the
room and I can fix you, and maybe we get
to see what kind of career he could have. But
as it stands, forty nine ers is not that place.
It's all about rock party and Sam Sam Sam.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
And unlike Coldplay TJ, there is no chance to fix
you here in San Francisco.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Let's find out what's trending right now in the wide
world of sports. From Brian Fenley, b F the Scientist.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
What do you got fat?
Speaker 10 (30:31):
I can't wait to coldplay reggae?
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Right?
Speaker 10 (30:33):
I think that's yes, they are reggae, Yes, yes.
Speaker 7 (30:35):
Yeah, for sure. Oh, by the way, there's a ton
of Major League Baseball games. One is still going on
and it would be an Anaheim bottom of the ninth Angels.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
As you said, baseball games.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Wow, oh wow, Fa, Finley just got that.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Finley just got wait for it.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Wait, I was.
Speaker 10 (30:55):
Expecting the chase it or Mike to say that. I
said something wow.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
I said wow right away, I got it.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
You waited ten more seconds and said wow, Now I
get it.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
I said, I'd see.
Speaker 7 (31:08):
So, I don't know what we'd call it. Then, if
it's not a baseball game, should we.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
Start all the game that matters?
Speaker 7 (31:16):
Well, that is a good point. But if you think
about it, Fenley's.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Got everything planned out a certain order. Frostburg, don't ask
them to go. It's temporaneous. It's not gonna work.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
No. See, what you guys need to realize is that
everything I do is spontaneous. Here there are some that
basically have it, like Jason and Mike, Like you guys
are in the studio. Yeah, but but basically you and
Mike read off a teleprompter for all four hours of
your show. Sure, so basically you script everything.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Right now, look look at me in the eye.
Speaker 5 (31:45):
Give me baseball without looking at the screen.
Speaker 10 (31:48):
You want me to give you all the coorse.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
No, don't look down like you don't know. I look
look at me, Look at me.
Speaker 5 (31:53):
I'll give you all the scores from memory.
Speaker 7 (31:55):
Go all right, you're resting snugly between his legs. I'm
looking at you right now. Yeah, you see this eye,
let's it to it.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Oh you just looked to the side.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
I just saw my.
Speaker 10 (32:03):
Laptop down, body bag vomiting.
Speaker 7 (32:06):
Right here we go laptop Yeah, Yankees and a nine
game losing streak nine to one win against the Nationals.
Aaron Judge had three home runs. Do you see I'm
not looking at anything as of doing this. The Dodgers
game was suspended due to weather issues in the third
in Cleveland.
Speaker 10 (32:23):
They were up three to one.
Speaker 7 (32:24):
They're going to finish up that game against the Guardians
at twelve ten tomorrow afternoon East Coast time.
Speaker 5 (32:29):
How many hits from Mookie bets.
Speaker 10 (32:32):
Two?
Speaker 3 (32:34):
You just looked down.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
I did not look down.
Speaker 7 (32:39):
You guys are ridiculous. Give me some credit, or credit
is Cardinals pirates. We'll just score Cardinals pirates. It was
five four six four, Okay, I was within a run
tig from a game that matters Cubs Tigers. That one
was five four six four, Brewers Twins, Brewers twins. That
(33:00):
is four three eight seven Brewers win, White Sox Mariners.
You should know this when you led with this. Yeah,
that's FI four, that's FY four.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Fine.
Speaker 5 (33:08):
Are you just gonna say five to four for every game?
Wait for to be right on it?
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Is that what you're gonna do?
Speaker 7 (33:12):
No, but you mentioned a couple of these games that
I would not be following the script of journalistic integrity,
because that's what we do here, guys, Jason and Mike
in the newsroom by mentioning some of these games where
the teams are both under five hundred, which is why
I would not mention the Mets in their game because
who cares. But yes, your point about the White Sox
(33:35):
it matters because they won five to four against the Mariners.
Because as set it back to you, Jason, Mike Seattle
had it eight game winning streak snapped, and guess what,
I did not look to see that it was an
eight game winning streak. It is, So do I get
like something like a party favor or.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
You get a break?
Speaker 7 (33:57):
You get a break, you lose.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
As my old manager in the supermarket, Louis Romaniano used
to tell me, I say, hey, can I take my break? Louis,
he would say, your break is that you get to
work here. I'm like, oh, okay, so your break is
that you get to still work here.
Speaker 5 (34:12):
I thought he told you to leave the watermelons alone.
You say your break is that you're working here, kid.
Speaker 10 (34:16):
Okay, what did your Boston Blockbusters say?
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (34:19):
They love me at Blockbuster because I knew everything about
movies and everything.
Speaker 10 (34:23):
Everything because that's all you did.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
Yeah, that's me. That was me. My movie education was complete.
Speaker 4 (34:29):
You're jealous he knew the proper slide over baby time
in a movie. I mean, come on, that's not mad.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Sure. Red Sox beat the Astros. What was the score?
Speaker 7 (34:36):
Red Socks beat the Astros eight to six, No, seven five.
It was a two run differential.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
I knew.
Speaker 7 (34:44):
Hey, hey, wait, guess what the hard one here in
ten innings and Adam Duvall I'm not looking at anything,
had a three run home run in the top.
Speaker 10 (34:53):
Of the tenth.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
Okay, thank you, all right, we got it.
Speaker 10 (34:56):
I recover.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
No, okay, you gotta get the scores right. But that's okay, No,
it's fine.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Coming up next, we get to double down on a
big NFL bull prediction we made a few days ago,
because it's happening.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Sports Radio, The Jason Smith Show with Mo my best
friend Mike Harmon live from the tirag dot com studios.
Where it's gonna happen. I'll double down, it's gonna happen
by Saturday. Jonathan Taylor will be on a new team
by Saturday. News breaks today the Colts have been receiving
(36:22):
offers for Jonathan Taylor. Remember it was last week where
they we found out that Jim Mersey just didn't really
care if he was alive or dead or Jonathan Taylor
was in the NFL. That upset Jonathan Taylor. Jonathan Taylor
wants out. Colts aren't gonna give you any more money
and on Monday, they agreed to allow him to seek
(36:44):
his own trade, and now six teams have jumped in
saying we're interested in Two of them have exchanged offers
with the Colts. He's gonna be traded by Saturday. Ersay
wants this to happen. Jonathan Taylor wants out. This trade
is going to go down, and maybe sooner than that,
but by Saturday will happen. There's a Tuesday deadline because
(37:05):
that's when they have to make a decision on Taylor
for the beginning of the year. Is he on the
pup list?
Speaker 5 (37:09):
Is he not?
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Roster's got to be down at fifty three. But teams
are gonna make this happen. He will be on a
new team by Saturday because both sides are motivated to
make this deal go. And the Colts made it easy
by saying first round pick or the equivalent. There was
no we want all of this. If you want Jonathan Taylor,
We're not just gonna give him away and all the
blah blah blah blah blah blah. No, they made it
(37:32):
pretty simple. Teams know what they can call with offer wise, Tada,
you got six teams calling, what do you want we
have this pick, we have these couple of picks. This
is going to be done the next couple of days.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
Yeah, I mean I think you have the the Colts.
I don't know how excited they are to get rid
of him at four No, no, no, no. I think he'd
love nothing more than for Jonathan Taylor to read the
room and come back and work for four million dollars
and help Anthony Richardson out. He just doesn't want to
give him any more money.
Speaker 5 (38:01):
Yeah, but that's not happy to do that. That's not
gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (38:04):
So, as I say, he would love for him to
come back, like this is truly one side in terms
of anybody else.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
But so he knows he has to trade him. So
if there's no way he's gonna come back and play,
I want him going. And he did his part by
pushing him out the door, by saying, you don't really
have value with this franchise. So yeah, when there's no
way forward, it's gonna happen. They they're both motivated to
make this trade go down.
Speaker 4 (38:26):
Yeah. The curiosity when it gets down to it for
Taylor is if Ersa did push all the chips to
the center of the table. And say, ah, you know what,
we didn't get anything. He goes all Darryl Morey, what
does Taylor do? Because if you dance around it and
you say, hey, I'm kind of hurt, I'm kinda not right, well,
you're not exactly setting yourself up for a big contract
(38:47):
in the next run. So he's kind of in a
difficult spot from that regard. Now, there's plenty of teams
that are kicking the tires on this. We've seen a
lot that Miami's been pretty aggressive there, and you've got
a couple other teams that are certainly taking a look
see as to what the chart says to make this
(39:08):
make sense. But how many teams are looking at it
going yeah, you know, let's also commit to an extra
twelve or fourteen million dollars right now beyond what we
have to do and make goods here for twenty twenty three.
I don't know that that list is terribly long. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
I think there's teams that would say, Okay, we have
some money left over in our cap for this year,
where either spend it or we don't. So, hey, you're
making four million this year, we'll sweeten it for you,
give you another two or three million this year and
then twelve million or thirteen million for next year, and
right away will guarantee ten million of it. Ah, that,
because that's what it's gonna take. Because Taylor will accept
(39:43):
a trade as long as he's gonna make more money
in the deal. And a team's gonna say, well, it's
worth a fray if we're gonna trade the equivalent of
a first round pick. We want the guy for a
couple of years. So here you go, here's money for
this year, and here's most of your salary guaranteed for
next year. And it's more money now than he's ever
gonna get from the Colts.
Speaker 4 (39:59):
Yeah, I'm curious to see how how much Jim Merse
tries to drag this out.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Not I you're gonna You're gonna wake up and it's
gonna happen. He's gonna be a dolphin, or he's gonna
be a bear, or he's gonna be an eagle, or
he'll be someplace.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
Evidently very aggressive as well. Okay, we need another running back.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
They want forty seven running backs to be able to
play this year.
Speaker 4 (40:20):
Jalen Hurts runs the ball to let's go.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
Coming up next, we had a big story involving the
biggest story of the night.
Speaker 5 (40:27):
