Tuesday and Monday and Tuesday will be the couple.
Speaker 4 (01:10):

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Place, but that's good. It's nice to be wanting.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
I like it.
Speaker 5 (01:16):

have no doubt listening to us.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
Somewhere where have mozzarella bites at McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
That's it. Yeah, so there we go, We get it,
get it you. I was gonna put one of those
Apple the tracker thing, get an air tag on him,
and then we could just kind of follow him through
the streets see how many McDonald's he runs into over
the course of time. But I thought that might have
been a little excessive.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Especially too without without his permission. Also maybe a little illegal.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But he's my best friend. Have you not heard the promos?
Come on, you make it great? I would have said
I was looking out for his safety. He's a man
of high importance and we needed him back stateside to
watch the Jets meltdown because America wanted to do it
with him.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Oh man, I hope the clip of Aaron Rodgers saying
I can't wait to play with DeVante Adams again.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Has has has crossed the pond?
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Oh down there, I made sure it did. If it hadn't,
oh it did earlier today. Now, whether he has actually
read the message and processed it and everything else, I
don't know. But he probably did a happy dance if
he did, and he probably went into another McDonald's. It's
how you celebrate big things. We've got Shay, We've got
(03:10):

I'm unras Saint Brown Superstar Fantasy Legend already one hundred
(03:55):
and nineteen catches for fifteen hundred and fifteen yards and
twenty twenty three craziness. And then he was on the
serious new series that just dropped on Netflix. They had
their red carpet event receiver. So last year we got Quarterback,
We got to learn, and people decided they liked the
plaid shirts laid out for Kirk Cousins and his weird
(04:16):
trophy room like he was Harry Potter hiding under the stairs, and.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
I'm not gonna lie that may be like Kirk Cousins less.
So you went, you went on. I went the other way.
I was, I was, I was ambiblent on Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
And then when I saw him strap that thing onto
his head and the fact that his wife picks out
all of his clothes.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Come on, man, what's going on?
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Don't you aspire to a space where you don't care
about that to the level of, yeah, you can do that.
I'll worry about the quote important things.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
I mean, I guess, so maybe be better at the
important things than Kirk.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
He's done okay for himself, the greatest businessman in all history.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
He's a legend at Wells Fargo. That's that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
And then we can always try to assess blame, right,
the blame pie as to Kirk Cousins when we get
towards postseasons and stuff. Although he did a good job
shirtless with the chains on, cheering his team on when
they got to QBE seven or whatever the hell it
was the end of last year. But say Brown talking
about you know injuries, right, he had his toe injury,
(05:19):
had battled through. But then he said, you know I've
had a hit pointer before I thought it was a
hit pointer. Maybe it's a little bruise, Like wow, it's
still hurting. And then he gets this oblique injury that
he evidently ripped off the bone and then still proceeded
to play and rack up one hundred and nineteen catches
for fifteen hundred fifteen yards. Now, there's a promo that plays,
(05:41):
you know, for our show here Jason and I, where
I've got a line where I've threw out. Pettiness knows
no tax bracket. Pettiness knows no boundaries for i'man ross
aining Brown. There's a guy like he still recites the
receivers ahead of him whenever it prompted. Here's the sixteen
guys boom.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
I think he said he does it.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
He said he does it before every practice, which at
this point you should probably be able to do it
by memory.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Well when he got to the bag and everything else.
But you know, you keep that list there that you're
staring at all. Right, let's hear it direct from his.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Mouth, and I can barely.
Speaker 6 (06:19):
I mean, I'm running, but the pain is like out
of ten as I got eight or nine, and so
I'm like it's too late for me not to play
the game. Plans in painkillers is something that I really
don't like to take unless.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Unless the Packers.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
How's that unless? Well so, yeah, so he plays through
this injury monster season, but just well well known for
the fact that he still thinks of those gms, thinks
of those receivers that played. Again, going back to the
Anthony Edwards conversation, Jalen Brown, whatever else, whatever's going to
(06:59):
motivate you to that next level of greatness. And I
don't care if you're an accountant or whatever else. You know,
you're a salesperson. You want to win that quarterly award.
Might just be a toaster, might just be you get
a little extra padding on the expense account the next
time you travel.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
When you spread that grape jelly over, that tells you
know you earned it.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
But that's it exactly right, I mean, And maybe it's
on a fancy your knife because you've gone up in
tax bracket, right and I'm on Ross Saint Brown certainly.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Has gone up in tax pri absolutely.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
So you know a guy that's earned it. But you know,
this is just one of those stories because we talk
about it all the time in sports across across the
span right. Hockey guys get their reverence for what they
pay play through all the time. Basketball guys, we joke
about hang nails, We joke about now maybe you tweak gagel. No, no,
you played yesterday, but it's the back to back, so
(07:50):
we know you're not gonna go. Load management is literally
a four letter word right when we get load going
out and you can decide load and where you want
to go with that. But you know, we talked about
Joel embiid last hour sixty five games and that threshold
and wanting to get there and people were still playing it.
It's too it's too much, like you're missing twenty percent
(08:12):
of the year. Now, if you guys were dumb enough
and not to go too far on a tangent, but
you're dumb enough to tie all NBA voting to max contracts,
that's just a bad job by your union.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
We've seen a couple bad That.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
One's just a joke beyond jokes as far as I'm you.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
Were saying, you don't want to go too far into it.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
But the NBA this offseason has shown like if Dylen
Brown has any beef, it should be with him and
his players because he's a president of a great Williams
vice president. How did they let this second and first
apron thing go into play.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Unbelievable, an actual hard cap that restricts draft picks and
what you can do with your roster. Absolutely, It's like
I was like.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You because I mean, obviously when it broke at first,
I'm okay, second apron, Okay, this is going to be impactful.
Then you see it in practice and it's like, oh,
my goodness, who negotiated this? It can't be the guys
like because now because now you know the real reality
is now because there's been like that max. Right, Guys
like like a Lebron for example, especially in Cleveland, would
(09:14):
have made way more than the MAX if they had
the opportunity to command what the word sure, But what
happened in the NBA is the floor was raised for
what a MAX contract was.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Now that's over with. That's over with. You gonna have
a whole bunch of like the brandon Ingram's of the world.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
The reason is not that he can't play anymore's nobody
wants to pay him what he's.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Exactly right.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
I saw that that's what his expectation was report earlier
this week. It's like, yeah, hence the crickets, uh coming
out of New Orleans. But yeah, it's it's funny that
the process, you know, and lebron you know, lauded for
the fact that he signed for a little bit under
the max that he could have because it kept them
(10:00):
forty five thousand dollars short of that second apron.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
So they can make approximately what move because.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
What is that? I mean, that's that's a ball boys
sellary right exactly today. And then you know, you could
go conspiracy theory by the guaranteed money that Bronni got
if you want to talk about you know, you know,
circling around the cap and whatever else.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Right, it's all it's all going through the same house.
No exactly how fast do you think Bronnie James moves out?
I mean, I assume he lived on campus at USC.
I don't wonder I would.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
Stay at the house.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
I think I stay at the house.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Why not.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Bank my money?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (10:40):
People looking after me? Whoever? The chef is right, it's
part of the million that lebron was spending on his body.
Bronnie was getting part of that, right, And I don't
think Bronnie's gonna suddenly stop chipping out cash for that.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
Well, I mean, if Bronnie's going to spend a million
on the body, he's only have a million.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Left over for the whole Wow.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Just well, he doesn't need the doesn't need the aw
some man's supposed to eat on a million dollars. But yeah,
I mean it doesn't need quite the maintenance of the
old man. But yeah, it's it's an interesting conversation. I'd
stay home at least for a little while.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
I would live at home right now if I could.
Did you save all the money?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Now? That would that would not end well for me,
I feel you at all. So I'm having some flashbacks.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Sometimes better to just pay the rent and have the privacy.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Yeah, that's it. Rent is due, no question about it.
But yeah, just to finish the point, right, as we
come back to the aman Ross Saint Brown, you know,
revealing of this oblique injury is you recognize and the
guys you talk to around the studios here, right that
had played in the league, and you won't believe what
this guy went through or what I had to do
(11:54):
to get back on the field. But it's always kind
of muting because in the NFL, like we we don't.
We don't have an expectation that, you know, there's that
sanctity like we know guys are getting shot up with
vitamin T and whatever else to get out there, shoot
it up.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
There's an X deal with it later.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
There's an expectation that you are at some point in
the season you will get hurt.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
That you're kind of messed up to something great. Now,
this is maybe a little more extreme. I think we
would expect, right, I mean when we go down the road,
you know, I always want the Drew Brees commentary as
he's retired and he goes, yeah, if I could, if
my shoulder hadn't gone, I could so play. Well, yeah,
your arm was toast, but but you did everything you
(12:38):
could maintenance wise to drag that out as long as
you could. And how many guys you know, immediately it's like, well,
now it's a badge of honor. They're holding up like
their Wilt Chamberlain with the number of surgeries they've had
in their post career. I'm at nineteen, how about you.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
Yeah, Now the football is well, I have a cousin
who's really good at baseball, right and really wants to
play football. I told my aunt put receiver on and
then remind him that he doesn't have this world class
medical team around him to keep him on the field.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Like, go play basket if you want.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
To be basketball baseball. Yeah, I mean go figure it out,
figure out where your skill set is, and fast track
at as best you can. You'll come out probably a
bit better off. On the other side. He's Martin Wise.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yee.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Welcome back in Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith Show with
Me Mike Carmon No Jason tonight Martin weiss In Instead
at Martin weiss we were shied for using the toaster
analogy twice. I said it was meaningful and purposeful repetition
that I don't think toasters get the proper run anymore.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
I mean, let's be honest, how else are you supposed
to heat up a slice of bread?
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Especially now? I mean, they got larger places where you
can create, like your own little pita pockets and all
of those kind of things. Sandwiches. You know you want
a nice grilled cheese, you can do it in some
of these new fangled toasters.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Man.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
I mean getting after it, the technology, the technological advancement,
something to really be proud of it.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
There's no question about it. Hey. Shortly after the show,
the podcast goes up. If you missed any of today's program,
be sure to check out the podcast and search Fox
Sports Radio wherever you get your audio, download it, follow rate,
review it, search Fox Sports Radio where you get your podcasts.
You'll see this episode the Jason Smith Show with Me,
Mike Harmon, Martin weiss In for Jason. That'll be in
(17:03):
big bold letters and it'll be posted by Shay right
after we get out the air, he will include my
name in that or I will find him. I went
on Liam Neeson on him right there.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
I will find you, and I will find you.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Look, you do your show in Detroit each day, six
weeks in, staring at walls, monologue today, all of those
kind of things, and you celebrate all the good. I mean,
I'm sure you did a lot of positivity about Kaid
Cunningham's new Yeah, I mean, I mean, you gotta pay somebody,
I guess.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
Not to do Detroit radio. But I think like the
combination of Kaid Cunningham and JB.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
Bickerstaff, I don't think it's out of the question to
think that that is a good pairing. And silly me,
I think when you have a good pairing, you should
probably try to keep it together.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Especially when you've watched pretty much everything else kind of
tumble around. They will be battling the bulls for the
tanking towards Cooper flag.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
Though I'm not sure if the pisses they're taking in
the same way that I mean, well.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
They's taking and there's just being bad. Yeah, I don't
think I'll say it for you.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
They're gonna be bad, you know, they're gonna be bad,
but I think that they I mean, yeah, I think
the pisses have not won over twenty four games, and
I think the.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Last five years.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Yeah, it's not good for anybody.
Speaker 5 (18:17):
Well, I mean, and picking fifth over and over and
over again. If you're betting on Detroit to get lotter
relocked and I got beachfront property in Idaho or.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
That, they'll figure out how to use said fifth pick
right most years.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
We'll see what Ron Holland the second has to do.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
There, you go, let's get after it all right. So
we got the final numbers today though, from the twenty
twenty four NFL Draft held in Detroit. Dan Wetzel on
Twitter with this one w E tz e L seven
hundred and seventy five thousand attendants. Now we knew that
was up, but here's how it breaks down. Fifty states,
(18:54):
twenty countries. Thirty percent of fans traveled more than one
hundred miles. That's so nearly two hundred and fifty thousand people.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
That's so insane to me.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Wait, you're gonna like this number even better. Two hundred
and thirteen point six million dollars in economic impact, including
one hundred and sixty one point three million from visitors. Well,
that's a lot of merged from Detroit people.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Though, Well, I'll be honest, you know, Detroit has not
necessarily been a vacation hotspot. Beautiful to beautiful town, beautiful
surrounding area. Jim Price the Late Tiger's color color brock Ass.
You just say it's a nice area Detroit. But uh yeah,
I was shocked to see that many people in the
(19:41):
downtown Detroit that I knew when I was in high school.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
It's like, Wow, things sure have changed.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
You can't clean things up for events. Maybe some of
it has staying power, certainly.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
I mean it's it's like radically since you know, the
last fifteen years or so. The idea that you would
be whole the NFL draft of campus Marshes fifteen years ago,
I think would have been a fever dream, not like
off pipe dream, but something where you.
Speaker 4 (20:08):
Would have to go and check the Purson's sleep and
say are you okay.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Like you have to do in La quite often time
as we go, obligatory nod to where we are in
this town, where we are, and then for big events
the streets miraculous will get cleaned for about six weeks.
The award season and all of that kind of stuff,
and then you see it go back over and the
problems that you tried to just put a little bit
(20:34):
of paint on just re emerge. But I think back
to Chicago and where I went to high school. Right
there was literally a housing project right across the street
that they eventually raised because the property was that of
the school, and they were expanding to the point where
it's like, right now, we're at an impass And eventually
they found passage and homes and moved folks out of there.
(20:55):
But now it's like a giant damn college campus. So
I went to sant Ignation.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Oh I know a ton of people that went to
sant Ignatius.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
So I'm the Chicago one. A lot of people in Ohio,
the Ohio version of it. Well, but if you don't
much posts from.
Speaker 5 (21:09):
This, loyal to Chicago because I went to all half
of them went to the University of Michigan.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
See there you go, I know a ton of people.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
All the two girls from Chicago when I was life
freshman year, they were either from Sandagnacius or Whitney Young.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Welcome?
Speaker 3 (21:24):
The more you know there you go walk the hallways.
I've talked about it. You know, you've got a couple
of class pictures. You'll go take people on the tour
and they'll say, hey, dad, why is that guy's picture
blacked out? Like we really want to go down this path?
All right, I'll tell you what he did to get
blacked out of the class picture. Life lessons as you
(21:45):
walk the hallways of sating Nacius. But yeah, tremendous economic impact.
We know, the draft has just gotten immense, and you
basically have a bidding war to try to host it
each and every year. I liked it when it was
at Radio City Music Hall, nice and contained and you know,
but as we know, traditions kind of a dirty word anymore,
and a lot of a lot of sporting things. But
(22:06):
you also have to you take it on the road
and engage the fans and if you can get that
kind of economic impact, and each of these cities and
the fan base is excited. Right. We saw in Tennessee,
saw it in Chicago, Now you see it in Detroit.
With these kind of numbers, I mean, how big do
you get do we get to a million in one
of these spots?
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Well, I just pray standing nations, pray for us. I
just pray there you go, that we don't expand to
four days.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
See every part of correspondence I get is ended with
remember sand ignacious in your will, call this number for
estate planning to include sant ignacious.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
This the case is going down.
Speaker 5 (22:44):
But I just hope, like and I get that the
three day thing, now that you're the draft is on
the move often is it's in a different city every year.
I get how the three day weekend kind of inflates
those chnumbers even more. But selfishly, as somebody who watches
this stuff or at least use to watch this stuff
with you know, baited preapht to see who's going to
(23:06):
be picked first, and then I can't got to make
sure I'm not looking at Twitter so Mike Silver doesn't
ruin the picks for me, and all this just a
three day draft is just simply too long, Like the
first and second round should be the first second, third
round should be one day four to seven, and fourth
math four, five, six and seven the next day and
then let's call it a day, let's call it a desk,
(23:27):
call it a weekend, wrap it up, and let's everybody
give draft grades out.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Well, but it's funny, right, and so let's extend it
over to the wonderful world of the NBA. Always on
one day this year, I planned my vacation. I'll be
here for the draft. Lo and behold, let's have Browny Day,
Let's have a second day.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
I just I think that's gotta be a one time thing.
It's gotta be.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
You know how salty I was for that, Like with
the amount of jabbering we'd done about the draft and
a couple of the principles right when we start talking
about Castle and eat and some of those guys where
they're gonna go and how but how much air was
in the balloon for Brownie James? And I was like, dude,
I'll help me out a flight out out of the
country when that he gets picked. And then it was
(24:13):
in the afternoon.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Wasn't even in the evening going up against murder?
Speaker 3 (24:16):
She wrote murder, She wrote, still gets after it, full
line of toys. There's such a demand for Angela Lansbury Finelio,
leave it on TV. Now there's a couple of the
cable channels. You got that, You've got, Quincy m E,
you got, you know, Jack Klugman as the forensic examiner.
(24:38):
Well there, yeah, all those guys you start rolling in.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
I'm not Perry Mason, but not that that the HBO
Perry Mason talking.

A black and white. Yeah, that's usually out at like midnight.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
You know.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
The guy run into that proceed this show, Rob Parker.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
They love Perry Mason so much then when they lost,
they called the station to complain.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
Yeah, I've known him for a while. Two Detroiters, not
native sons of Detroit, but two adopted son.

Eurosccer final is Sunday three pm Eastern Time and the
Copa America Final Sunday night, both on Fox TV. That
Copa America Final from Miami, Argentina against Columbia. Of course,
Argentina rank number one in the world. Colombia is unbeaten
in its last twenty eight games over the last two
and a half years.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Back to you, something's gotta give, Steve, and it'll happen
on Fox coming up abound ten minutes. We'll tell you
the economics. You want to go to that game, be
prepared to pay, but you're gonna get one hell of
a concert at halftime as opposed to a long conversation
with grand Hill like we got last night.
Speaker 8 (29:11):
He kind of stayed into the third court. It just
kept going, stayed at the table.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
It was the longest halftime I've ever seen.
Speaker 8 (29:17):
He is like that basketball. He picks the team. So
I don't recall Jerry Colangelo staying on the broadcast that long.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
I'm just saying, how about when they showed I think
he was sitting next to coach k They didn't even
put a lower third with name on.
Speaker 8 (29:30):
That's right, Like it wasn't even in the picture. Yeah, no,
that was ridiculous. That's the guy that kind of started
things with asking people to give a commitment to USA basketball,
And frankly, look how we've been overall for a few
decades now since the dream tam.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, so I would have been in studio, so I
didn't get the verbal So maybe he got the verbal
nod and acknowledge that doubt him. But we got no graphic.
So like I made mention of us, Oh there's Colangelo
and coach k but I didn't even think about it. Yeah,
no graphic, no love, No, hey, this is his resume
and what he's doing for the world.
Speaker 8 (30:01):
Yeah, like there's a reason why he's sitting at a
USA basketball game.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
You want to get selfie with Baraco.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Who dude?
Speaker 4 (30:09):
Stali and Barack Obama again for the third time.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
There were some people taking pictures of the pictures being
taken in the first row there it's.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
You know, inception. They're ready for the next Christopher Nolan.
It was not a dream though, no question about it.
Thanks Steve, appreciate you. Steve Desager at the news desk,
Mike Harman, Martin Weiss with you at Martin Weis where
you find him on Twitter. Find me over at Swollen
Dome and we'll get into the Copa America final, because yeah,
something's got to give on the playing surface. But also
(30:37):
something's going to give if you want to. We're talking
about tourism dollars. Yeah, be prepared to pay by a
thirty to one shot for the American Century Championship this weekend.
That's Aaron Rodgers. I would say, at least right now,
the odds are longer for the dream that he has
for his future in the NFL.
Speaker 5 (30:56):
Well, he's going to utilize the Bunte Adams good, the
New Raiders offense.
Speaker 4 (31:01):
I love Luke Getzi.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
He's a fantastic coach. Awesome, I love I can't wait
to play with him outside of again again.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Now.
Speaker 5 (31:09):
I think there's several questions here, but I think the
number one is did anybody give Aaron Rodgers an Ayahuaska
check prior to the tournament?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Is that illegal? As if you're just there as a celebrity.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
I'm just saying he he just may have forgotten. I mean,
he's barely played for the Jets. No, I may have forgotten.
The sole scenario.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Everybody got there four snaps and he did run out
with the flag. That's what people responded to news of
Quad Leonard leaving Team USA was the picture of Aaron
Rodgers with the flag. We barely knew.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Ye you know, I remember sitting there watching that game, thinking, No,
nine eleven Truther, Aaron Rodgers is running out here on
nine to eleven with the American flag.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
What can go wrong?
Speaker 8 (31:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (31:59):
And then Sharon pam four snaps in Achilles, give me that.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
I was like, we had uh stakes.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
I watched my man Smith crumble in the seat next
to me.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
Oh he had to be sick. Oh he had been sick.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Yeah he still is all these months later. Uh, you
know he The off field stuff is a whole other
thing with Aaron Rodgers, but certainly anticipating uh somewhat healthy returns.
I'm skeptical when you've got that kind of injury at forty,
but hey, we'll see, aren't. But like the two guys right,
(32:37):
and go back to Captain Kirk again, pay a lot
of money they drafted panics. Fine, but it's the all right,
we're gonna push it all in on you to the
tune of this amount of guaranteed money and then we
roll up. Now, both guys like Kirk would move a bit,
but more pocket just throw it downfield. With Rogers, a
(32:57):
lot of it is improv improv and getting out to
the edge, getting your receivers a little extra time, especially
those old packer guys that you know, nepotism is alive
and well getting them their checks yeh last year and
they can only play just like the coordinator really only
works with Aaron Rodgers. I think we've seen enough test
cases to realize that that is true. Right, Hackett works
(33:19):
with Aaron Rodgers. But I love this, continued Dellians Right.
DeVante Adams and all his media earlier this week of
oh yeah, Aaron keeps telling him to come to the
Jets and then he's out at the American Center. He's like,
oh yeah, I can't wait to play with him again.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
You know it, Just dude, how much do you think,
if at all, Devonte Adams regrets, like not trying to
stick it out in Green Bay?
Speaker 3 (33:43):
I mean, well based on the money, because he went
deep into that and of what they were offering him.
Like we talk about disrespect, I mean, I don't know
what if there's a stronger word than insult and disrespect
in our English language without a bunch of exploitives attached. Sure,
because they were talking, you know, ah you had whatever,
just seventeen million dollars. But you see, guys, doubling that.
Speaker 5 (34:04):
Well, you know, I think I'm further ahead in the
Netflix show receiver than you are.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
Okay, but I'm not spoiling.
Speaker 5 (34:10):
Anything when I tell you the only times that DeVante
Adams smiles is when he's a with his kids and wife,
and then like right around when Antonio Piers got the job,
and then after that. I mean it is his very
dissatisfied with his professional.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
I can understand where that is. Right. Look, you're gonna
get targets and some numbers by default quality quantity, and
in the end, it's all about winning, right, right, and
the experience. And he can try to talk up Aid
and O'Connell and Gardner Minshew till he's blue in the face, right.
He stated his preference for O'Connell to be the guy,
(34:49):
although kind of tepidly. But you know what, you don't
have an a guy, right, You got a guy that
you're hoping becomes a guy. And Gardner can give you
two or three games where he plays with that beautiful
hair on fire and then he becomes Gardner Minshew again.
Speaker 5 (35:04):
I mean, hey, you had the Colts one bad pass
away from the from the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
The only problem is he was the guy who threw
the back. That's sure, yeah yeah, but he is. I
mean he is a quintessential backup quarterback gardener is.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Yep, break glass in case of emergency. He can get
us a month and then you really hope that your
training staff and the football gods smile upon you get
well soon. Exactly all to get your cards and letters out,
no question about it. He's Martin Weiss and for Jason Smith.
Here from the tire rack dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios.
I'm Mike Carmon. Thanks for being with us this evening.
(35:38):
Coming up next, we'll give you the dollars and cents
and that headliner for Copa America the final on Fox.
You'll get to view it from the comfort of your
own home. But if you want to go to the show,
what's it cost psychologically and monetarily, we'll tell you next.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven
pm Pacific.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Welcome back in Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith Show with me,
Mike Carmon, Martin Weis and for Jason Smith this evening
at Martin Weiss where you find him in the Twitter verse.
Now as we get ready the summer of soccer. Now,
I know, we still got a lot of Olympic of
stuff to go on and all the events that people
(36:23):
will be thrilled for a couple of weeks and you'll
pay attention to sports that for four years you have
no idea who any of these people are. And then
they give you the reminder, hey, this person meddled here,
and then they play a little vignette where there's a
violin in the background and tell you about something that
tragic that happened to them.
Speaker 4 (36:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (36:42):
I always say the Olympics are sports for people who
don't watch sports.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
You know.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
It's like when you're sitting there watching you know, competitive
archery and you're just rooting for the flag.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
You know that's oh, oh I remember this guy.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Yeah, but it's it's kind of cool.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
Now I'm not out on it.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
I just you know, I just know that that's It's
the other there's like the human interest story.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
It's like I imagine, Okay.
Speaker 5 (37:07):
So if the SP's are the awards show for people
who don't watch you know, the regular award shows, like
for people who only watch sports, that's kind of like
what the Olympics are to me.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
For regular sports.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
Oh okay, because it's like you know, you know, because
we get the best of all worlds, because we get
the reality TV show mixed They're in sure, because we
get backgrounds from the different countries.
Speaker 4 (37:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
Hey, here's someone expecting to be on the on the
metal stand from insert country here and their backstory and
and trials leading up to to this moment.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:38):
But my my main thing is I'll be watching the
swimming and I'll be watching the basketball. But to that point,
I will not watch another swim meet unless it is
something like I know someone involved in it until what
la the next Olympics.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
To the Olympics, Yeah, to the next one. Yeah. So
that's kind of where we're at in the process. Right.
We've already uh, the Women's Soccer League on hiatus. You've
got the WNBA a couple more games and then that'll happen.
Speaker 8 (38:07):
Al Right.
Speaker 3 (38:07):
We had another double double from Angel Reese a little
bit earlier. I just like, I like how people try
to parse out, well, is a double double then still
ten rebounds? Just get over yourselves. Let's not make this
harder than it has to be.
Speaker 7 (38:21):
She's missing.
Speaker 5 (38:21):
She's rebounding her own shots, So should she not rebound
her own shots?
Speaker 3 (38:26):
I don't though, don't take the next possession, right, it's wrong. Hey,
I missed the shot, all right, You're not playing horse,
You're still playing basketball, all right. When you want to
guess what the get in for Argentina and Columbia is
a game that'll be televised on Fox, rolling you out there.
This is gonna be live from the hard Rock Stadium
(38:46):
in Miami, Florida.
Speaker 5 (38:49):
I will go with I mean when I talk about
a shot in the dark, this is as dark of
a shot that could possibly be.
Speaker 4 (38:56):
I have no I'll say two hundred and seventy five dollars.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
Anybody want to guess in there, Shay Alex.
Speaker 4 (39:04):
I'll go like three eighty three. Eighty three eighty is
kind of crazy.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Well, I'm not even including service fees. That's a whole
other problem here.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Would you say, Martin? I said two seventy five.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
I'd say it's probably close around shoot right now, maybe
four point fifty. On stub Hub right now, there are
four hundred and forty eight tickets available, which means people
are holding their.
Speaker 4 (39:30):
Tickets, people are buying.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Yeah, one thousand. I was off by one seven hundred
seventy two dollars to sit in Section three point fifteen,
Row fifteen.
Speaker 5 (39:42):
I could not imagine paying one thousand dollars for anything
that I wasn't there for at least a couple days.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
Oh and then you're going down to Miami.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
But that's not included in the price.
Speaker 3 (39:53):
It's like two hours that might be the best two
hours of your life.
Speaker 5 (39:57):
I've had over one thousand dollars I need, like with
the umbrellas in it somewhere up again.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
It goes to the value proposition of of these of
sporting events, Like it's something that I'd be ashamed to
tell you some of what I've paid to go to
sporting events and and things, uh and concerts and whatever
else you know, based on that because it is only
a couple hours.
Speaker 5 (40:21):
But you know that's but sometimes you got it well,
I don't know, this doesn't feel to be like it's
a once in a lifetime moment they have.
Speaker 4 (40:27):
You could go see another soccer game.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
No, but what if you're you know, just loving messy
and you want to go see Argentina in a final?
Speaker 4 (40:35):
Doesn't he play at uh?
Speaker 3 (40:38):
Sometimes he plays?
Speaker 4 (40:41):
He does.
Speaker 3 (40:42):
That's but that's if you're in Miami, because on the
road maybe a dicey proposition.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
I mean, I gotta go to Miami to go to
see the bad management. They can't be talking.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
Well, this game is still gonna get played that you know.
But now now we're thinking of little Johnny. You know
if if he comes, if Miami comes to your town
and Messi doesn't play, and you forked over for the
secondary market.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
I'd be ready to sue.
Speaker 3 (41:08):
I just kind of laugh at it that you're you
you paid for the laundry, and you're hoping that Messi shows.
Kind of like when Lebron doesn't play and everybody gets
all all upset of stuff. It's like you knew the risk.
I do wonder how.
Speaker 5 (41:22):
The new TV deal will impact this type of stuff
because how many times did you watch tn T and
it's like we have the Celtics versus the Pacers, but
Jason Tatum, Dalen Brown and Tyre's Halliburton and Miles Turner
all will be sitting on the bench.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Well they all got to talking to you. Remember they
had that month on on ABC where Warriors sat down,
Spurs sat down, Lebron sat down, like week after week. Uh,
you just had a bunch of guys not on display.
I once had a mini part of a Lakers season
ticket package. Mm hm towards the end of Kobe's run.
(41:56):
Guess how many games I saw Kobe play?
Speaker 4 (41:58):
How many you row? Ouch?
Speaker 3 (42:01):
He's mart Weiss, I'm by Carmen coming up next. We
turned our attention back into the world of basketball.

Speaker 5 (01:58):
Somewhere where have mozzarella bites at McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
That's it. Yeah, so there we go, We get it,
get it you. I was gonna put one of those
Apple the tracker thing, get an air tag on him,
and then we could just kind of follow him through
the streets see how many McDonald's he runs into over
the course of time. But I thought that might have
been a little excessive.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Especially too without without his permission. Also maybe a little illegal.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But he's my best friend. Have you not heard the promos?
Come on, you make it great? I would have said
I was looking out for his safety. He's a man
of high importance and we needed him back stateside to
watch the Jets meltdown because America wanted to do it
with him.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Oh man, I hope the clip of Aaron Rodgers saying
I can't wait to play with DeVante Adams again.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Has has has crossed the pond?
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Oh down there, I made sure it did. If it hadn't,
oh it did earlier today. Now, whether he has actually
read the message and processed it and everything else, I
don't know. But he probably did a happy dance if
he did, and he probably went into another McDonald's. It's
how you celebrate big things. We've got Shay, We've got

I'm unras Saint Brown Superstar Fantasy Legend already one hundred
(03:55):
and nineteen catches for fifteen hundred and fifteen yards and
twenty twenty three craziness. And then he was on the
serious new series that just dropped on Netflix. They had
their red carpet event receiver. So last year we got Quarterback,
We got to learn, and people decided they liked the
plaid shirts laid out for Kirk Cousins and his weird
(04:16):
trophy room like he was Harry Potter hiding under the stairs, and.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
I'm not gonna lie that may be like Kirk Cousins less.
So you went, you went on. I went the other way.
I was, I was, I was ambiblent on Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
And then when I saw him strap that thing onto
his head and the fact that his wife picks out
all of his clothes.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Come on, man, what's going on?
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Don't you aspire to a space where you don't care
about that to the level of, yeah, you can do that.
I'll worry about the quote important things.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
I mean, I guess, so maybe be better at the
important things than Kirk.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
He's done okay for himself, the greatest businessman in all history.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
He's a legend at Wells Fargo. That's that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
And then we can always try to assess blame, right,
the blame pie as to Kirk Cousins when we get
towards postseasons and stuff. Although he did a good job
shirtless with the chains on, cheering his team on when
they got to QBE seven or whatever the hell it
was the end of last year. But say Brown talking
about you know injuries, right, he had his toe injury,
(05:19):
had battled through. But then he said, you know I've
had a hit pointer before I thought it was a
hit pointer. Maybe it's a little bruise, Like wow, it's
still hurting. And then he gets this oblique injury that
he evidently ripped off the bone and then still proceeded
to play and rack up one hundred and nineteen catches
for fifteen hundred fifteen yards. Now, there's a promo that plays,
(05:41):
you know, for our show here Jason and I, where
I've got a line where I've threw out. Pettiness knows
no tax bracket. Pettiness knows no boundaries for i'man ross
aining Brown. There's a guy like he still recites the
receivers ahead of him whenever it prompted. Here's the sixteen
guys boom.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
I think he said he does it.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
He said he does it before every practice, which at
this point you should probably be able to do it
by memory.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Well when he got to the bag and everything else.
But you know, you keep that list there that you're
staring at all. Right, let's hear it direct from his.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Mouth, and I can barely.
Speaker 6 (06:19):
I mean, I'm running, but the pain is like out
of ten as I got eight or nine, and so
I'm like it's too late for me not to play
the game. Plans in painkillers is something that I really
don't like to take unless.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Unless the Packers.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
How's that unless? Well so, yeah, so he plays through
this injury monster season, but just well well known for
the fact that he still thinks of those gms, thinks
of those receivers that played. Again, going back to the
Anthony Edwards conversation, Jalen Brown, whatever else, whatever's going to
(06:59):
motivate you to that next level of greatness. And I
don't care if you're an accountant or whatever else. You know,
you're a salesperson. You want to win that quarterly award.
Might just be a toaster, might just be you get
a little extra padding on the expense account the next
time you travel.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
When you spread that grape jelly over, that tells you
know you earned it.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
But that's it exactly right, I mean, And maybe it's
on a fancy your knife because you've gone up in
tax bracket, right and I'm on Ross Saint Brown certainly.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Has gone up in tax pri absolutely.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
So you know a guy that's earned it. But you know,
this is just one of those stories because we talk
about it all the time in sports across across the
span right. Hockey guys get their reverence for what they
pay play through all the time. Basketball guys, we joke
about hang nails, We joke about now maybe you tweak gagel. No, no,
you played yesterday, but it's the back to back, so
(07:50):
we know you're not gonna go. Load management is literally
a four letter word right when we get load going
out and you can decide load and where you want
to go with that. But you know, we talked about
Joel embiid last hour sixty five games and that threshold
and wanting to get there and people were still playing it.
It's too it's too much, like you're missing twenty percent
(08:12):
of the year. Now, if you guys were dumb enough
and not to go too far on a tangent, but
you're dumb enough to tie all NBA voting to max contracts,
that's just a bad job by your union.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
We've seen a couple bad That.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
One's just a joke beyond jokes as far as I'm you.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
Were saying, you don't want to go too far into it.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
But the NBA this offseason has shown like if Dylen
Brown has any beef, it should be with him and
his players because he's a president of a great Williams
vice president. How did they let this second and first
apron thing go into play.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Unbelievable, an actual hard cap that restricts draft picks and
what you can do with your roster. Absolutely, It's like
I was like.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You because I mean, obviously when it broke at first,
I'm okay, second apron, Okay, this is going to be impactful.
Then you see it in practice and it's like, oh,
my goodness, who negotiated this? It can't be the guys
like because now because now you know the real reality
is now because there's been like that max. Right, Guys
like like a Lebron for example, especially in Cleveland, would
(09:14):
have made way more than the MAX if they had
the opportunity to command what the word sure, But what
happened in the NBA is the floor was raised for
what a MAX contract was.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Now that's over with. That's over with. You gonna have
a whole bunch of like the brandon Ingram's of the world.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
The reason is not that he can't play anymore's nobody
wants to pay him what he's.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Exactly right.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
I saw that that's what his expectation was report earlier
this week. It's like, yeah, hence the crickets, uh coming
out of New Orleans. But yeah, it's it's funny that
the process, you know, and lebron you know, lauded for
the fact that he signed for a little bit under
the max that he could have because it kept them
(10:00):
forty five thousand dollars short of that second apron.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
So they can make approximately what move because.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
What is that? I mean, that's that's a ball boys
sellary right exactly today. And then you know, you could
go conspiracy theory by the guaranteed money that Bronni got
if you want to talk about you know, you know,
circling around the cap and whatever else.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Right, it's all it's all going through the same house.
No exactly how fast do you think Bronnie James moves out?
I mean, I assume he lived on campus at USC.
I don't wonder I would.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
Stay at the house.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
I think I stay at the house.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Why not.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Bank my money?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (10:40):
People looking after me? Whoever? The chef is right, it's
part of the million that lebron was spending on his body.
Bronnie was getting part of that, right, And I don't
think Bronnie's gonna suddenly stop chipping out cash for that.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
Well, I mean, if Bronnie's going to spend a million
on the body, he's only have a million.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Left over for the whole Wow.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Just well, he doesn't need the doesn't need the aw
some man's supposed to eat on a million dollars. But yeah,
I mean it doesn't need quite the maintenance of the
old man. But yeah, it's it's an interesting conversation. I'd
stay home at least for a little while.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
I would live at home right now if I could.
Did you save all the money?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Now? That would that would not end well for me,
I feel you at all. So I'm having some flashbacks.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Sometimes better to just pay the rent and have the privacy.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Yeah, that's it. Rent is due, no question about it.
But yeah, just to finish the point, right, as we
come back to the aman Ross Saint Brown, you know,
revealing of this oblique injury is you recognize and the
guys you talk to around the studios here, right that
had played in the league, and you won't believe what
this guy went through or what I had to do
(11:54):
to get back on the field. But it's always kind
of muting because in the NFL, like we we don't.
We don't have an expectation that, you know, there's that
sanctity like we know guys are getting shot up with
vitamin T and whatever else to get out there, shoot
it up.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
There's an X deal with it later.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
There's an expectation that you are at some point in
the season you will get hurt.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
That you're kind of messed up to something great. Now,
this is maybe a little more extreme. I think we
would expect, right, I mean when we go down the road,
you know, I always want the Drew Brees commentary as
he's retired and he goes, yeah, if I could, if
my shoulder hadn't gone, I could so play. Well, yeah,
your arm was toast, but but you did everything you
(12:38):
could maintenance wise to drag that out as long as
you could. And how many guys you know, immediately it's like, well,
now it's a badge of honor. They're holding up like
their Wilt Chamberlain with the number of surgeries they've had
in their post career. I'm at nineteen, how about you.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
Yeah, Now the football is well, I have a cousin
who's really good at baseball, right and really wants to
play football. I told my aunt put receiver on and
then remind him that he doesn't have this world class
medical team around him to keep him on the field.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Like, go play basket if you want.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
To be basketball baseball. Yeah, I mean go figure it out,
figure out where your skill set is, and fast track
at as best you can. You'll come out probably a
bit better off. On the other side. He's Martin Wise.

Yee.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Welcome back in Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith Show with
Me Mike Carmon No Jason tonight Martin weiss In Instead
at Martin weiss we were shied for using the toaster
analogy twice. I said it was meaningful and purposeful repetition
that I don't think toasters get the proper run anymore.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
I mean, let's be honest, how else are you supposed
to heat up a slice of bread?
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Especially now? I mean, they got larger places where you
can create, like your own little pita pockets and all
of those kind of things. Sandwiches. You know you want
a nice grilled cheese, you can do it in some
of these new fangled toasters.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Man.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
I mean getting after it, the technology, the technological advancement,
something to really be proud of it.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
There's no question about it. Hey. Shortly after the show,
the podcast goes up. If you missed any of today's program,
be sure to check out the podcast and search Fox
Sports Radio wherever you get your audio, download it, follow rate,

You'll see this episode the Jason Smith Show with Me,
Mike Harmon, Martin weiss In for Jason. That'll be in
(17:03):
big bold letters and it'll be posted by Shay right
after we get out the air, he will include my
name in that or I will find him. I went
on Liam Neeson on him right there.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
I will find you, and I will find you.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Look, you do your show in Detroit each day, six
weeks in, staring at walls, monologue today, all of those
kind of things, and you celebrate all the good. I mean,
I'm sure you did a lot of positivity about Kaid
Cunningham's new Yeah, I mean, I mean, you gotta pay somebody,
I guess.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
Not to do Detroit radio. But I think like the
combination of Kaid Cunningham and JB.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
Bickerstaff, I don't think it's out of the question to
think that that is a good pairing. And silly me,
I think when you have a good pairing, you should
probably try to keep it together.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Especially when you've watched pretty much everything else kind of
tumble around. They will be battling the bulls for the
tanking towards Cooper flag.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
Though I'm not sure if the pisses they're taking in
the same way that I mean, well.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
They's taking and there's just being bad. Yeah, I don't
think I'll say it for you.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
They're gonna be bad, you know, they're gonna be bad,
but I think that they I mean, yeah, I think
the pisses have not won over twenty four games, and
I think the.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Last five years.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Yeah, it's not good for anybody.
Speaker 5 (18:17):
Well, I mean, and picking fifth over and over and
over again. If you're betting on Detroit to get lotter
relocked and I got beachfront property in Idaho or.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
That, they'll figure out how to use said fifth pick
right most years.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
We'll see what Ron Holland the second has to do.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
There, you go, let's get after it all right. So
we got the final numbers today though, from the twenty
twenty four NFL Draft held in Detroit. Dan Wetzel on
Twitter with this one w E tz e L seven
hundred and seventy five thousand attendants. Now we knew that
was up, but here's how it breaks down. Fifty states,
(18:54):
twenty countries. Thirty percent of fans traveled more than one
hundred miles. That's so nearly two hundred and fifty thousand people.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
That's so insane to me.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Wait, you're gonna like this number even better. Two hundred
and thirteen point six million dollars in economic impact, including
one hundred and sixty one point three million from visitors. Well,
that's a lot of merged from Detroit people.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Though, Well, I'll be honest, you know, Detroit has not
necessarily been a vacation hotspot. Beautiful to beautiful town, beautiful
surrounding area. Jim Price the Late Tiger's color color brock Ass.
You just say it's a nice area Detroit. But uh yeah,
I was shocked to see that many people in the
(19:41):
downtown Detroit that I knew when I was in high school.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
It's like, Wow, things sure have changed.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
You can't clean things up for events. Maybe some of
it has staying power, certainly.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
I mean it's it's like radically since you know, the
last fifteen years or so. The idea that you would
be whole the NFL draft of campus Marshes fifteen years ago,
I think would have been a fever dream, not like
off pipe dream, but something where you.
Speaker 4 (20:08):
Would have to go and check the Purson's sleep and
say are you okay.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Like you have to do in La quite often time
as we go, obligatory nod to where we are in
this town, where we are, and then for big events
the streets miraculous will get cleaned for about six weeks.
The award season and all of that kind of stuff,
and then you see it go back over and the
problems that you tried to just put a little bit
(20:34):
of paint on just re emerge. But I think back
to Chicago and where I went to high school. Right
there was literally a housing project right across the street
that they eventually raised because the property was that of
the school, and they were expanding to the point where
it's like, right now, we're at an impass And eventually
they found passage and homes and moved folks out of there.
(20:55):
But now it's like a giant damn college campus. So
I went to sant Ignation.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Oh I know a ton of people that went to
sant Ignatius.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
So I'm the Chicago one. A lot of people in Ohio,
the Ohio version of it. Well, but if you don't
much posts from.
Speaker 5 (21:09):
This, loyal to Chicago because I went to all half
of them went to the University of Michigan.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
See there you go, I know a ton of people.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
All the two girls from Chicago when I was life
freshman year, they were either from Sandagnacius or Whitney Young.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Welcome?
Speaker 3 (21:24):
The more you know there you go walk the hallways.
I've talked about it. You know, you've got a couple
of class pictures. You'll go take people on the tour
and they'll say, hey, dad, why is that guy's picture
blacked out? Like we really want to go down this path?
All right, I'll tell you what he did to get
blacked out of the class picture. Life lessons as you
(21:45):
walk the hallways of sating Nacius. But yeah, tremendous economic impact.
We know, the draft has just gotten immense, and you
basically have a bidding war to try to host it
each and every year. I liked it when it was
at Radio City Music Hall, nice and contained and you know,
but as we know, traditions kind of a dirty word anymore,
and a lot of a lot of sporting things. But
(22:06):
you also have to you take it on the road
and engage the fans and if you can get that
kind of economic impact, and each of these cities and
the fan base is excited. Right. We saw in Tennessee,
saw it in Chicago, Now you see it in Detroit.
With these kind of numbers, I mean, how big do
you get do we get to a million in one
of these spots?
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Well, I just pray standing nations, pray for us. I
just pray there you go, that we don't expand to
four days.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
See every part of correspondence I get is ended with
remember sand ignacious in your will, call this number for
estate planning to include sant ignacious.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
This the case is going down.
Speaker 5 (22:44):
But I just hope, like and I get that the
three day thing, now that you're the draft is on
the move often is it's in a different city every year.
I get how the three day weekend kind of inflates
those chnumbers even more. But selfishly, as somebody who watches
this stuff or at least use to watch this stuff
with you know, baited preapht to see who's going to
(23:06):
be picked first, and then I can't got to make
sure I'm not looking at Twitter so Mike Silver doesn't
ruin the picks for me, and all this just a
three day draft is just simply too long, Like the
first and second round should be the first second, third
round should be one day four to seven, and fourth
math four, five, six and seven the next day and
then let's call it a day, let's call it a desk,
(23:27):
call it a weekend, wrap it up, and let's everybody
give draft grades out.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Well, but it's funny, right, and so let's extend it
over to the wonderful world of the NBA. Always on
one day this year, I planned my vacation. I'll be
here for the draft. Lo and behold, let's have Browny Day,
Let's have a second day.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
I just I think that's gotta be a one time thing.
It's gotta be.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
You know how salty I was for that, Like with
the amount of jabbering we'd done about the draft and
a couple of the principles right when we start talking
about Castle and eat and some of those guys where
they're gonna go and how but how much air was
in the balloon for Brownie James? And I was like, dude,
I'll help me out a flight out out of the
country when that he gets picked. And then it was
(24:13):
in the afternoon.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Wasn't even in the evening going up against murder?
Speaker 3 (24:16):
She wrote murder, She wrote, still gets after it, full
line of toys. There's such a demand for Angela Lansbury Finelio,
leave it on TV. Now there's a couple of the
cable channels. You got that, You've got, Quincy m E,
you got, you know, Jack Klugman as the forensic examiner.
(24:38):
Well there, yeah, all those guys you start rolling in.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
I'm not Perry Mason, but not that that the HBO
Perry Mason talking.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
A black and white. Yeah, that's usually out at like midnight.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
You know.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
The guy run into that proceed this show, Rob Parker.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
They love Perry Mason so much then when they lost,
they called the station to complain.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
Yeah, I've known him for a while. Two Detroiters, not
native sons of Detroit, but two adopted son.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Adopted sons of Detroit. I like that. We're here at
the Tirak dot com Fox Sports Radio Studios. As we
continue here, we will get stick with the the NFL.
Few more stories that are circulating, including a quarterback who
wants to reunion. Reunions are so nice. See we're talking

we'll do it next as we continue up to Jason

Argentina rank number one in the world. Colombia is unbeaten
in its last twenty eight games over the last two
and a half years.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Back to you, something's gotta give, Steve, and it'll happen
on Fox coming up abound ten minutes. We'll tell you
the economics. You want to go to that game, be
prepared to pay, but you're gonna get one hell of
a concert at halftime as opposed to a long conversation
with grand Hill like we got last night.
Speaker 8 (29:11):
He kind of stayed into the third court. It just
kept going, stayed at the table.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
It was the longest halftime I've ever seen.
Speaker 8 (29:17):
He is like that basketball. He picks the team. So
I don't recall Jerry Colangelo staying on the broadcast that long.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
I'm just saying, how about when they showed I think
he was sitting next to coach k They didn't even
put a lower third with name on.
Speaker 8 (29:30):
That's right, Like it wasn't even in the picture. Yeah, no,
that was ridiculous. That's the guy that kind of started
things with asking people to give a commitment to USA basketball,
And frankly, look how we've been overall for a few
decades now since the dream tam.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, so I would have been in studio, so I
didn't get the verbal So maybe he got the verbal
nod and acknowledge that doubt him. But we got no graphic.
So like I made mention of us, Oh there's Colangelo
and coach k but I didn't even think about it. Yeah,
no graphic, no love, No, hey, this is his resume
and what he's doing for the world.
Speaker 8 (30:01):
Yeah, like there's a reason why he's sitting at a
USA basketball game.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
You want to get selfie with Baraco.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Who dude?
Speaker 4 (30:09):
Stali and Barack Obama again for the third time.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
There were some people taking pictures of the pictures being
taken in the first row there it's.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
You know, inception. They're ready for the next Christopher Nolan.
It was not a dream though, no question about it.
Thanks Steve, appreciate you. Steve Desager at the news desk,
Mike Harman, Martin Weiss with you at Martin Weis where
you find him on Twitter. Find me over at Swollen
Dome and we'll get into the Copa America final, because yeah,
something's got to give on the playing surface. But also
(30:37):
something's going to give if you want to. We're talking
about tourism dollars. Yeah, be prepared to pay by a
thirty to one shot for the American Century Championship this weekend.
That's Aaron Rodgers. I would say, at least right now,
the odds are longer for the dream that he has
for his future in the NFL.
Speaker 5 (30:56):
Well, he's going to utilize the Bunte Adams good, the
New Raiders offense.
Speaker 4 (31:01):
I love Luke Getzi.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
He's a fantastic coach. Awesome, I love I can't wait
to play with him outside of again again.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Now.
Speaker 5 (31:09):
I think there's several questions here, but I think the
number one is did anybody give Aaron Rodgers an Ayahuaska
check prior to the tournament?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Is that illegal? As if you're just there as a celebrity.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
I'm just saying he he just may have forgotten. I mean,
he's barely played for the Jets. No, I may have forgotten.
The sole scenario.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Everybody got there four snaps and he did run out
with the flag. That's what people responded to news of
Quad Leonard leaving Team USA was the picture of Aaron
Rodgers with the flag. We barely knew.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Ye you know, I remember sitting there watching that game, thinking, No,
nine eleven Truther, Aaron Rodgers is running out here on
nine to eleven with the American flag.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
What can go wrong?
Speaker 8 (31:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (31:59):
And then Sharon pam four snaps in Achilles, give me that.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
I was like, we had uh stakes.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
I watched my man Smith crumble in the seat next
to me.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
Oh he had to be sick. Oh he had been sick.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Yeah he still is all these months later. Uh, you
know he The off field stuff is a whole other
thing with Aaron Rodgers, but certainly anticipating uh somewhat healthy returns.
I'm skeptical when you've got that kind of injury at forty,
but hey, we'll see, aren't. But like the two guys right,
(32:37):
and go back to Captain Kirk again, pay a lot
of money they drafted panics. Fine, but it's the all right,
we're gonna push it all in on you to the
tune of this amount of guaranteed money and then we
roll up. Now, both guys like Kirk would move a bit,
but more pocket just throw it downfield. With Rogers, a
(32:57):
lot of it is improv improv and getting out to
the edge, getting your receivers a little extra time, especially
those old packer guys that you know, nepotism is alive
and well getting them their checks yeh last year and
they can only play just like the coordinator really only
works with Aaron Rodgers. I think we've seen enough test
cases to realize that that is true. Right, Hackett works
(33:19):
with Aaron Rodgers. But I love this, continued Dellians Right.
DeVante Adams and all his media earlier this week of
oh yeah, Aaron keeps telling him to come to the
Jets and then he's out at the American Center. He's like,
oh yeah, I can't wait to play with him again.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
You know it, Just dude, how much do you think,
if at all, Devonte Adams regrets, like not trying to
stick it out in Green Bay?
Speaker 3 (33:43):
I mean, well based on the money, because he went
deep into that and of what they were offering him.
Like we talk about disrespect, I mean, I don't know
what if there's a stronger word than insult and disrespect
in our English language without a bunch of exploitives attached. Sure,
because they were talking, you know, ah you had whatever,
just seventeen million dollars. But you see, guys, doubling that.
Speaker 5 (34:04):
Well, you know, I think I'm further ahead in the
Netflix show receiver than you are.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
Okay, but I'm not spoiling.
Speaker 5 (34:10):
Anything when I tell you the only times that DeVante
Adams smiles is when he's a with his kids and wife,
and then like right around when Antonio Piers got the job,
and then after that. I mean it is his very
dissatisfied with his professional.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
I can understand where that is. Right. Look, you're gonna
get targets and some numbers by default quality quantity, and
in the end, it's all about winning, right, right, and
the experience. And he can try to talk up Aid
and O'Connell and Gardner Minshew till he's blue in the face, right.
He stated his preference for O'Connell to be the guy,
(34:49):
although kind of tepidly. But you know what, you don't
have an a guy, right, You got a guy that
you're hoping becomes a guy. And Gardner can give you
two or three games where he plays with that beautiful
hair on fire and then he becomes Gardner Minshew again.
Speaker 5 (35:04):
I mean, hey, you had the Colts one bad pass
away from the from the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
The only problem is he was the guy who threw
the back. That's sure, yeah yeah, but he is. I
mean he is a quintessential backup quarterback gardener is.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Yep, break glass in case of emergency. He can get
us a month and then you really hope that your
training staff and the football gods smile upon you get
well soon. Exactly all to get your cards and letters out,
no question about it. He's Martin Weiss and for Jason Smith.
Here from the tire rack dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith

pm Pacific.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Welcome back in Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith Show with me,
Mike Carmon, Martin Weis and for Jason Smith this evening
at Martin Weiss where you find him in the Twitter verse.
Now as we get ready the summer of soccer. Now,
I know, we still got a lot of Olympic of
stuff to go on and all the events that people
(36:23):
will be thrilled for a couple of weeks and you'll
pay attention to sports that for four years you have
no idea who any of these people are. And then
they give you the reminder, hey, this person meddled here,
and then they play a little vignette where there's a
violin in the background and tell you about something that
tragic that happened to them.
Speaker 4 (36:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (36:42):
I always say the Olympics are sports for people who
don't watch sports.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
You know.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
It's like when you're sitting there watching you know, competitive
archery and you're just rooting for the flag.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
You know that's oh, oh I remember this guy.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Yeah, but it's it's kind of cool.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
Now I'm not out on it.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
I just you know, I just know that that's It's
the other there's like the human interest story.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
It's like I imagine, Okay.
Speaker 5 (37:07):
So if the SP's are the awards show for people
who don't watch you know, the regular award shows, like
for people who only watch sports, that's kind of like
what the Olympics are to me.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
For regular sports.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
Oh okay, because it's like you know, you know, because
we get the best of all worlds, because we get
the reality TV show mixed They're in sure, because we
get backgrounds from the different countries.
Speaker 4 (37:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
Hey, here's someone expecting to be on the on the
metal stand from insert country here and their backstory and
and trials leading up to to this moment.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:38):
But my my main thing is I'll be watching the
swimming and I'll be watching the basketball. But to that point,
I will not watch another swim meet unless it is
something like I know someone involved in it until what
la the next Olympics.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
To the Olympics, Yeah, to the next one. Yeah. So
that's kind of where we're at in the process. Right.
We've already uh, the Women's Soccer League on hiatus. You've
got the WNBA a couple more games and then that'll happen.
Speaker 8 (38:07):
Al Right.
Speaker 3 (38:07):
We had another double double from Angel Reese a little
bit earlier. I just like, I like how people try
to parse out, well, is a double double then still
ten rebounds? Just get over yourselves. Let's not make this
harder than it has to be.
Speaker 7 (38:21):
She's missing.
Speaker 5 (38:21):
She's rebounding her own shots, So should she not rebound
her own shots?
Speaker 3 (38:26):
I don't though, don't take the next possession, right, it's wrong. Hey,
I missed the shot, all right, You're not playing horse,
You're still playing basketball, all right. When you want to
guess what the get in for Argentina and Columbia is
a game that'll be televised on Fox, rolling you out there.
This is gonna be live from the hard Rock Stadium
(38:46):
in Miami, Florida.
Speaker 5 (38:49):
I will go with I mean when I talk about
a shot in the dark, this is as dark of
a shot that could possibly be.
Speaker 4 (38:56):
I have no I'll say two hundred and seventy five dollars.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
Anybody want to guess in there, Shay Alex.
Speaker 4 (39:04):
I'll go like three eighty three. Eighty three eighty is
kind of crazy.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Well, I'm not even including service fees. That's a whole
other problem here.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Would you say, Martin? I said two seventy five.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
I'd say it's probably close around shoot right now, maybe
four point fifty. On stub Hub right now, there are
four hundred and forty eight tickets available, which means people
are holding their.
Speaker 4 (39:30):
Tickets, people are buying.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Yeah, one thousand. I was off by one seven hundred
seventy two dollars to sit in Section three point fifteen,
Row fifteen.
Speaker 5 (39:42):
I could not imagine paying one thousand dollars for anything
that I wasn't there for at least a couple days.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
Oh and then you're going down to Miami.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
But that's not included in the price.
Speaker 3 (39:53):
It's like two hours that might be the best two
hours of your life.
Speaker 5 (39:57):
I've had over one thousand dollars I need, like with
the umbrellas in it somewhere up again.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
It goes to the value proposition of of these of
sporting events, Like it's something that I'd be ashamed to
tell you some of what I've paid to go to
sporting events and and things, uh and concerts and whatever
else you know, based on that because it is only
a couple hours.
Speaker 5 (40:21):
But you know that's but sometimes you got it well,
I don't know, this doesn't feel to be like it's
a once in a lifetime moment they have.
Speaker 4 (40:27):
You could go see another soccer game.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
No, but what if you're you know, just loving messy
and you want to go see Argentina in a final?
Speaker 4 (40:35):
Doesn't he play at uh?
Speaker 3 (40:38):
Sometimes he plays?
Speaker 4 (40:41):
He does.
Speaker 3 (40:42):
That's but that's if you're in Miami, because on the
road maybe a dicey proposition.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
I mean, I gotta go to Miami to go to
see the bad management. They can't be talking.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
Well, this game is still gonna get played that you know.
But now now we're thinking of little Johnny. You know
if if he comes, if Miami comes to your town
and Messi doesn't play, and you forked over for the
secondary market.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
I'd be ready to sue.
Speaker 3 (41:08):
I just kind of laugh at it that you're you
you paid for the laundry, and you're hoping that Messi shows.
Kind of like when Lebron doesn't play and everybody gets
all all upset of stuff. It's like you knew the risk.
I do wonder how.
Speaker 5 (41:22):
The new TV deal will impact this type of stuff
because how many times did you watch tn T and
it's like we have the Celtics versus the Pacers, but
Jason Tatum, Dalen Brown and Tyre's Halliburton and Miles Turner
all will be sitting on the bench.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Well they all got to talking to you. Remember they
had that month on on ABC where Warriors sat down,
Spurs sat down, Lebron sat down, like week after week. Uh,
you just had a bunch of guys not on display.
I once had a mini part of a Lakers season
ticket package. Mm hm towards the end of Kobe's run.
(41:56):
Guess how many games I saw Kobe play?
Speaker 4 (41:58):
How many you row? Ouch?
Speaker 3 (42:01):
He's mart Weiss, I'm by Carmen coming up next. We
turned our attention back into the world of basketball.
