See, that's that's a very republican approach to the Why
why is that republican? Because you want to take it.
You wanted to go republican with it. That's what you did.
I'm not direction. You took it to it.

It's different type of DC. That's all. They have security
at the places you're talking about, you know, my my
my DC song I was just listening to. They don't
have security.

Around security of some liquor stores too.

say there? Where you're trying to go with that? That
was very stereotypical.

Minor threat, minor threats not worthy. Bad brains is.

Cool, Jonas, what are you talking about?

Speaker 6 (03:45):
Of course we know genuine is from there.

Speaker 1 (03:47):

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Would just showed me a clip from a genuine performance
where he fell.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Shut it down.

Speaker 7 (03:57):
Yeah, the dude, the dude who was signing you just
like he was.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Like he's okay, and then kept you know, you gonna
keep signing his music, his lyrics while the man is
down on the ground trying to find his A c
L and his M c L. I don't get it.
I don't get it.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
Now. Is it worse than the people that were carrying
the casket as the Paul Bears who fell.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
Through that that's not their fault though, that's not That
was real. That was real.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Bro.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Oh, it made the news out here. It was real.
Can't be real. They all fell in that bad boy.
That was real. That was real. Can't be real. Can't
be real.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Well, and you know there's some j off in the
family who was looking at him going told you should
have cremated him. Try to tell you if we cremated him,
you guys aren't carrying a casket and falling through some
giant hole in the middle of a cemetery.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
That was real.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
And they he did say trouble funk though, right, Yeah,
that is one. You got rare essence, you got the
junk Yard band, then then you can get like there's
there's a group called Experience Unlimited. But then you know,
for me, it's like Chuck Chuck isn't here anymore, but
Chuck Brown is the godfather of Go Go. And then

(05:19):
you got guys like Sugar Beer. Sugar Beer is the
homie shots out to sugar Beerah. I might remember that
song doing the butt. Y'all remember that song doing but
I remember that. Yeah, well I'm married, but maybe some
of the things that we've you know, I don't know.
You know, you never saw school again doing the butt

(05:41):
and you could pull it up. We could come back
to doing the sound. You can. It's simple, It's it's easy.
It's not there's no lee. I don't think we can
for who. I don't think we.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
Can slide here, but not that it's it's it's it's
a clean, easy for who.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
There la it's a clean song. It's a black people's
song clearly. So it sounds like it doesn't sound like
you guys are very cultured.

Speaker 5 (06:07):
You know, well, I don't know about that. I mean,
I think that's open for anyone. It's just you know,
it depends on who's.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
I'm just saying. It just sounds like you guys are
making it like, you know, seem like there's only one
group of people that listen to it. Racist. Yeah, okay,
let's talk some sports. Oh me, I ain't culture. You're
not doing this ship Sudi culture.

Speaker 8 (06:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
Ti raq dot com Studios, t i iraq dot com.
We'll help you get there, an unmatched selection, fast free shipping,
free road has a protection and over ten thousand recommended installers.
Tire rack dot com the way tire buying should be.
We're not talking about ti Raq either. B got good culture,
but this, sir, they don't. Via the New York Post.
This from Aaron Glenn, the brand new head coach of

(06:50):
the New York Jets. It's a process, and I've talked
to our staff about this. I'm not here to talk
about the playoffs. I'm not here to talk about the
Super Bowl when the players get in to me. It's
the process of actually making it. That point. The two
things I want to make sure we do first and
foremost is establish the culture that we've been talking about
and try to create a building environment. So he would

(07:13):
like to establish a culture with the New York Jets.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
And what's the right response, I'll say that, Yeah, that
is if you're going to come out and you're going
to say something that that you know, moves the needle,
moves the dial, that that's what That is the right
thing to say. Now, whether that is doable or not,
I don't know, but that is the right thing to say.

Speaker 5 (07:35):
What makes every coach ever who's taken over a job
talked about implementing their own culture.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
I'm always what you say, Yeah, I mean I don't
I don't know that. I don't know that they say
it in that way, like in the way that he
said it, Like, let's not worry about talking about winning
a Super Bowl or all this stuff. Let's just first
focus in on what the environment of the building is
and what the culture of this team is going to be. Like, Yeah,
coaches do talk about bringing their culture and their brand

(08:05):
of ball, but I just feel like in listening to
what he had to say and reading what he had
to say, No and Aaron Glenn, I felt where he
was coming from. It's the right thing to say, and
it's the right approach to take. Like, this team can
go a lot of different directions from here, and if
they're going to go up, it's got to start with

(08:25):
changing the culture in which the building is currently running under.

Speaker 5 (08:31):
Well, it has to start with the ownership group, though, Like,
you can't change the culture of any organization, of any company,
of anything, right if at the very top they're not
willing to admit you got a problem, Like we've got
a culture issue. And that's part of the issue. If
you look at Woody Johnson and.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
You look at I mean some of the comments he's made.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
Now let Jonas, I'll let you play that out, because
there's some belly slappers, Like there's some laughers in there.
Aaron Glenn's coming from an organization with the Ford Family
that realized we needed to bring some in who could
change up our culture.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Like that's what.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
Detroit was, that's what they had been for so long.
And Aaron Glenn was able to be there and be
a part of a lot of that change and witnessing
a lot of that change and how it works. So
I said when they made the higher at the time,
I was like, this could be the perfect timing for
someone like Aaron Glenn because of his experience and what

(09:31):
he was just leaving. I mean, as much as people
want to look at the New York Jets and try
to call them a laughing stock in some ways for
how they've operated. The Lions weren't too far from that too.
I mean, the Jets have never had an Owen sixteen
oh and seventeen season.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
The Lions have. You know, they've had.

Speaker 5 (09:51):
Dudes run out of the back of the end zone
like three yards deep, not knowing where the hell they're at.
I mean, yes, the Jets have the infants butt fumble,
but it's not I would say that running out of
the back the end zones worse. Something like you have
those low marks that are unforgettable. And that's where you
look at Aaron Glenn and say, Okay, he's been there,
He's witnessed some of those things take place, and now

(10:14):
he's able to say this is how you fix it.
But I mean the whole preaching of culture that it's
no different. Like every coach comes in and tries to
change the culture, tries to implement his own culture. The
reality is he's got to be able to persuade an
influence and make sure ownership understands they have a problem.

(10:37):
There's like loved ones, there's people in our lives, there's
people we know that sometimes you're witnessing something You're like
they have a problem and they don't know it, like
no one's brought it to their attention, or no one's
wanted to bring it to their attention. And they're never
gonna be able to fix what their issue is until
they're able to admit it, until they're able to actually say, like, yeah,
I need to change this in my life. Otherwise I'm
going down a bad path. I'm never going to be

(10:59):
as successful that want to be, or I'm wasting some
of my talent.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Like that's that's the Jets.

Speaker 5 (11:05):
And so hopefully Aaron Glenn can find a way of
influencing what he Johnson understand. Like, if you really want
to change the culture, it starts up top. It starts
with how Woody Johnson does things, and then it goes
on down from there.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Get the hell out of the way. I mean, that's
all you really got to do. He doesn't have to
change who he is, just get the hell out of
the way.

Speaker 5 (11:25):
But maybe maybe there are some changes he needs to make.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
You know what I'm saying. I mean that change could
be just getting getting away. The Lions turn around, do
the job.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
The Lions turnaround started with the front office saying we
need help. And that's when they brought in all those
former players Spielm, Yeah, all those guys, and it was like,
let's repair the relationships we had that had gone sour
with there.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
You say, let's we do those things again. You're you're
talking about like, there's the there's the product on the field,
it's the players, but there's also you know, what Q
is mentioning is the environment that's created by the ownership,
by the decision makers. So to me, it's too separate.

(12:10):
Those are two separate conversations when you're talking about the
culture that's created by the ownership. That if that owner
is around and he's creating an environment that's toxic to
to the workers there, not just the players on the field,
but everybody that's there. That's you're not going to ever

(12:30):
overcome that. You're not. So I'm saying you don't have
to change as a person, because more often than not,
I mean, somebody like what he what he Johnson's probably
way too old to change the essence of who he
is as a person. Just step away. Just the real
the reality of it is is that you just step

(12:51):
away and let them run the business. Don't don't be
standing over top of them. Don't be doing things where
you're undermining and superseding people's authority within the building. Let
them build the culture void of your influence. That's what
I'm saying. Like to me, we could easily say, oh, well,

(13:13):
what he can change and he can be this way,
and he can handle things this way, and if he
changes that and this that, and there's so many what
ifs in that, and he might not even know, Like
he's successful, so he might not even know how to
make those changes. It's like he's gotten to where he
is for a reason. He's able to buy that team

(13:35):
for a reason. Strong chances are he's not going to change.
The owners that we've seen in the past, they don't change.
They lose their teams. That's what they do, where their
teams continue to lose, you know, but they don't change.
So you don't have to change. Just step away, give them.

(13:55):
Aaron Glenn comes in and says that he's basically issuing you,
not anybody else. He's issuing Woody Johnson a direct challenge
and through the media that just step away and allow
for this culture and this environment the building to be

(14:16):
built up the right way. You want to be around
have a different building, have an ownership building, have a
high up corporate entities building. Y'all be over here. You know.
That's one of the things they did in DC. They
separated things, and good for them because you don't need
to have all of that act like they have full access,

(14:38):
but you don't need to be leveraging what you own, like, oh,
I'm going to be constantly around standing over top of
the employees and doing this and doing that. You don't
have to do that. You don't have to do that
because you have authoritative figures that are in place in
each one of the areas. Whether it be the media,
whether it be advertising and se whether it be scouting,

(15:01):
whether it be the players, whether it be the coaches.
You have people who are in charge. Let them do
their jobs. You see it playing out in Dallas every
single year. Every year. It's never gonna change. Jerry Jones,
the Jones family, they're gonna run that team the way
they run their team, that culture, the way it is.

(15:22):
It's never gonna change. While they're in position. That's a
lot of these teams. It's never gonna change. So if
I'm Aaron Glenn, I think he handled it the right way.
By issuing that you know that piece of information so
that Woody Johnson could receive that information know that this

(15:43):
is what it is. And I'm personally challenging you, the owner,
whether it's you changing your ways and being positive in
the environment and not meddling in things and undermining things,
or just get the hell away, whichever one it is,
make that decision so that we can try to start
building the culture of the team.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
And the challenge was accepted by Whatdy Johnson, who spoke
about Justin Fields as quarterback and said, quote, I think
Justin Fields is going to be a total winner for us.
I've been impressed with him since his college days. It
was him or Trevor Lawrence, and I think he's going
to be really good, which is great except for the
fact that if it was him or Trevor Lawrence, why

(16:24):
did they take Zach Wilson over him in the draft
when they.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
Had the chance?

Speaker 4 (16:29):
You know what I mean? Like, Aaron Glenn's got no shot.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
Nobody does.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
We've got twenty five.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
Years of a So that's what the setup of this
segment was for to basically say Glen, he's doomed already.

Speaker 4 (16:41):
Aaron Glenn, Robert Salah.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
All these guys have all had the right thought, like
the right they listen, we're doing it for all the
right reasons, Like there's we go back to this point
like Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick or two of the
greatest coaches of all time, and both of them said, yeah,
we're good here. And that was early before we had
any sort of intel on this. I just have no faith.

(17:06):
And what's most stunning about this whole thing is that
the one guy who was swimming against the notion that
the Jets could figure something out and have a positive
outlook and a positive season.

Speaker 4 (17:17):
With Aaron Rodgers there and all that.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
The one guy who was pounding the table for it's
the Jets, it's the Jets their dysfunction was LeVar Arrington.
And yet what a year later, what now you're saying
there's hope with New York.

Speaker 1 (17:32):
I just say there's hope. I didn't say there's hope.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
What happened?

Speaker 1 (17:37):
What do you mean?

Speaker 4 (17:38):
You?

Speaker 3 (17:38):
You were the one that was most negative about and
Brady and I are like, all right, we want to
smoke of that, Like you can hand that over.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
I'm not gonna smoke when y'all smoking, But do it
on my own Smoky sharing this. You ain't put in
on this man.

Speaker 4 (17:55):
He got no shot.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Man. You could be right, but he's saying the right
things at the end of the day, just like just
like an ownership, like what he Johnson saying out about
Justin Fields gives him the ability to be like, it
wasn't me. This guy was good. I said he was good.
He was good. We saw him on the matt and ratings.
We thought he was good. We think that he should
have a great career for the New York Jets. He didn't.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
It's not my fault. But that's the type of leadership
you want out an owner. That's the leadership you want.
You want the guy who's gonna point the finger and say, hey, man,
I didn't make the pick. Like just even the owner
saying that, Like why are you saying that?

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Stay out of it. Just say the same exact say
the same exact thing your coach is saying, we're gonna
fix this culture. Like I'm all the way in with
Aaron Glenn. He played for this team. I'm all the
way in with what his message is. Say that you're
talking about something Justin Fields should be good for us,
Like he hasn't been good in the league yet, and

(18:53):
neither has Trevor Lawrence. Why is he gonna catch a stretch?

Speaker 4 (18:59):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Are we me in there? You're talking about two dudes.
I haven't taken their team nowhere.

Speaker 9 (19:06):
That's that's not true. They made the playoffs. If you guys,
that's nowhere. If you guys own they went nowhere. If
you guys owned the professional team, would you meddle? I'd
be super positive, okay, but would you like trying? Hey,
what are we doing here? If you own the team?

Speaker 1 (19:24):
No, you hire people to do like I wonder what
he does with you know, the other companies that you
know he's got that gets Johnson and Johnson, right, I
wonder what he does with the Baby oil. Does he
got a situation with did he? I mean what to
soon to? So? Was it too soon for.

Speaker 3 (19:43):
That one of his best customers?

Speaker 1 (19:49):
I mean, you do know Lawrence won that game? Right?
I don't care.

Speaker 5 (19:55):
He's he's Trevor Well. I mean that's not a great
comp Yeah, he hasn't done it. I'm not great comp
in them.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
I'm not They're not their average quarterbacks. To me, one
is average. One is teetering on the the he could
go below the level of average. I'm not I'm not.
I'm not budgeting on that one. I believe that so
far Trevor Lawrence's career has been a disappointment. Sorry, And
and if so, if you're saying, well, you know, it

(20:30):
was between I think he's going to be great here
for us, it was between Trevor Lawrence. And if it
wasn't Trevor Lawrence, it was justin Fields. I'm like, I'm
looking at both of them and it's like, neither one
of them is changing my franchises. You know, their chances
of being an elite franchise, not the guy I'm looking
at today. Sorry, Okay, sorry, if.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
That's the tough The tough part about this conversation is,
you know Dak's only got two playoff wins in his career, right,
Adam to the last all Kirk Cousins has one.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
Adam to the list.

Speaker 5 (21:05):
I'm just I'm saying, if you start going to that
list like Adam to the list, it is an accomplishment.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Though, if you're part of a bag of organization to
get there to actually win one, I'm sympathetic to being
in a horrible situation and Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields
going to Chicago. I understand that I do. But with
that being said, none of those names you just said
fall outside it like I put Dak Prescott and and

(21:33):
freaking Kirk Cousins in and level what they're like cless
celebrities be at the best like flirting with B list. Sorry,
somebody gotta keep it real. I wouldn't even I wouldn't
even mention Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Lamar

(21:54):
Jackson hasn't even done what he needs to do, but
at least he wins league in VPS. He he wins
the league MVPs. Josh Allen hasn't done what he needs
to do, but at least he won a league MVP finally.
And I we're not even gonna go there with Patrick
Mahomes or not. I'm not even gonna go there with
Patrick Mahomes. I look at guys like Justin Fields and

(22:17):
Trevor Lawrence, I wouldn't even begin to put them in
the conversation with the upper echelent quarterbacks that are in
the league right now, They're not even in the same conversation.
So if you're bringing them in to be the starter
of your team, and you already got one as the
starter of your team. And this is where they're at
at this point in their career. Good luck.

Speaker 5 (22:35):
Here's the point that I think makes the most senses.
It's interesting that Woody Johnson talks about these other quarterbacks
in that draft class because he kind of skips over
the fact that he drafted Sack Wilson then. But it's
interesting that he brings them up because they were drafted,
as you pointed out, to dysfunctional organizations, which it wouldn't

(22:58):
have made any difference probably.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
Where those guys went.

Speaker 5 (23:01):
Because they're going to such bad places, they're probably all
going to struggle.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
And that's kind of the delusional part, is to think.

Speaker 5 (23:09):
That like Trevor Lawrence or Justin Fields is going to
come for your your they're gonna fix it. Like that's
that's the wrong way. That's one of the reasons why
a gain. So this is why I go to when
you hear Aaron Glenn say what he's saying, I go, well,
this is the same thing that every coach says. And
the reality is, if he can't convince Woody Johnson that

(23:29):
it's a you problem it's it's your ownership, the way
you run things, your culture, your presence, like it's a
you problem if you can't convince them of that. And
it doesn't sound like Woody Johnson understands that based on
his comments, because he keeps thinking that like, oh, we're
going to wait for Patrick Mahomes to come along, all right,
good luck, I'll see in the next twenty years, thirty

(23:49):
and that guy comes along once in a lifetime. Tom
Brady comes along once in a lifetime.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
By the way, draft for people too, it would not
work period. You don't get that guy there. And and
look maybe maybe maybe not.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
All I'm saying is, and by the way, everyone got
Tom Brady wrong because everyone had a chance of drafting
him for the first six rounds, even the Patriots who
drafted someone before him.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Everyone's to act.

Speaker 5 (24:13):
Like, you know, Scott Puley, and everyone's like, oh, we
figured It's like now you took him in the sixth round.
He was your second pick in that round if you
thought so highly of him wanting to take.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
In the first round. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (24:22):
So the reality is is Woody Johnson still doesn't seem
to understand that it's going to take more than just
bringing in that sort of talent anyway, you know, it's
still a team sports, still a team game, and it's
one of the reasons why I do tend to think that,
like when you're poop pooing Trevor Lawrence. So far, he's
done a lot in an organization that really has not

(24:42):
been good, but he's still.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
These like like the Jets.

Speaker 5 (24:47):
The Jets would have killed to have a you know,
winning season, a playoff run where you actually won a
playoff game, and like with Trevor Lawrence or in that
time sphere, they would have killed to have that.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
That's not the case, obviously not the case. It's sad
that it falls on the players so often, but it
is what it is.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
It's two Pros and a Cup of Joe.

Speaker 3 (25:07):
Here on Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas
Knox with you. Coming up next here, though, you're going
to hear somebody who wants nothing to do with the
media at all whatsoever, and one of us poor bastards
might actually have to depend on them to win an
event over the weekend.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
We'll explain next year on FSR.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Arrington, and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern, three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 4 (25:40):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with
you here. Coming up about fifteen minutes from now here
from the tire rack dot Com Studios, we are going
to have our midweek Awards, the Good, the Bad, and
the uglying. That'll be yours here again fifteen minutes from now.
We're also going to with the Masters here because it
is Masters we which.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Is just a song I played for Masters.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
If they did, would you like it more?

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Yes? Outside the gates they play the song, not inside
the Oh what you're saying, so it's not, well, it's
not the same, A little different. It's not the same,
a little different out of parties.

Speaker 5 (26:16):
Not to say I don't know about political parties. I
would say it's just different.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
Here yea borsa sugary.

Speaker 4 (26:27):
I Uh.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
When I was driving cross country, I saw Augusta like
one hundred miles away or whatever it was, and I
was hungry.

Speaker 4 (26:34):
I was like, hey, you don't want to stop and
get something to.

Speaker 3 (26:36):
Eat, and Augusta looks beautiful on television and uh not
the same Augusta behind the gates. Seemed like that's it's
a whole different.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
Let me ask you this, Is there fry fish and
chicken shops outside of the Gulf Slate? Okay, I'm sure
there's somewhere. Yeah, okay, yes there.

Speaker 4 (26:57):
Okay, we're going to draw names out of a hat.

Speaker 1 (27:00):
I mean, he's a good fried fish, is what I'm saying.
I wouldn't do they put it on the white bread
with hot sauce and the fries that are here, Thank you.
Trying to make sure I'm in the same same. Is
it in a corner corner shop? A corner store?

Speaker 4 (27:18):
Uh huh?

Speaker 1 (27:19):
Okay, all right, okay, I could dig it. I could
dig it.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
Liquor store with bars on the window? Why are you
caught up on liquor stores? And there was why you
caught up?

Speaker 1 (27:32):
Just say just say what you want to say, Jonas, Jonas,
Just say what you want to say. Who was outside
of them bars the liquor store? Who was saying that?
Was anybody saying outside, look you look nervous, good good?
Say what you want to say. Yeah, it wasn't boy.
It was not a lee boy. From the way Jonah's

(27:53):
looking throwing stuff on the ground. He's pointing at me
right now, like you know, they're throwing stuff on the
ground like what like what money?

Speaker 3 (28:01):
Like these like cubes like these white cue little dice dice.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
It was weird. So I mean, Lorena, are you not
going like I would? I would I would hold my
finger on that button and not even remove it. What
this man is doing right now, liquor store with bars
on it. It's a real black guys out front with

(28:26):
said rolling dice and putting money on the ground.

Speaker 4 (28:30):
I never said that.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Oh you didn't.

Speaker 4 (28:32):
Damn you jump to conclusions here.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
A doubt that being said, we are going to a
LeVar refuses to pull the name out of a hat.
He refuses to partake in the master's hat pick them.

Speaker 4 (28:49):
So we've got to figure that out.

Speaker 3 (28:50):
But there's a little bit of a yeah, that's.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
No, you're not leaving me out. I don't. I don't
want to be a part of it. I'd have to be.
I would have to want to be end to be
left out right, But we're still leaving you out. I'll
see what what'll own today man like today.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
What I just wanted to point out that we do
have a little bit of a controversy is the right
term here?

Speaker 1 (29:17):
But Tiger Woods out too.

Speaker 4 (29:20):
I think it's his achilles left him out, but.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yeah, still leaving him out.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
Colin Markawa decided to walk away and not talk to
the media at the Arnold Palmer Invitational a couple of
weeks back, and he blew a three shot lead, just didn't.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
Want to talk.

Speaker 3 (29:40):
Then they wanted to get further comment from him. He
didn't really want to talk, and so there were people
that were asking him, you know, about the situation, and
he just kind of said, listen, if I don't want
to talk, and I don't want to talk, et cetera,
et cetera. Sometimes you know, I don't even talk to
my wife if I'm in his own so on and
so forth. Roy McRoy was asked about it at a
US TO yesterday and defended his fellow golfer.

Speaker 10 (30:03):
Look, every other athlete, whether it be in the NBA, NFL,
they're obligated to speak to you guys after.

Speaker 4 (30:09):
After a game.

Speaker 1 (30:10):
We're not.

Speaker 10 (30:11):
So, you know, whether that's something that the PGA Tour
looks to in terms of putting that into their rules
and regulations.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
But as long as.

Speaker 10 (30:18):
That's not the case, and we have that option to
opt out whenever we want expect guys to do that.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
It's fair.

Speaker 5 (30:25):
No, it's not what you mean, well, it's it's what
he's saying is factually true. You know, there is nothing
within the PGA Tour's handbook that mandates a player talked
to the media. So in reality, there is in the NFL,
in the NBA or Major League Baseball.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
It's collectively bargained. And so that's a little bit of.

Speaker 5 (30:45):
The difference as far as the structure of the PGA
Tour as compared to other leagues who have owners who obviously,
you know, these owners are you know, lining their pockets
with the money from a lot of the TV media
rights deal. So because of that, you know, they are
obviously putting in there the ability for players to have
to speak to the media, and if you don't, you

(31:06):
get fined. That's that's part of the process. Right With
the PGA Tour, it's a little bit different structure. So
it is something they could do in the future, and
I think maybe they will.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
I don't think it's.

Speaker 5 (31:17):
Great for anyone's brand to not be able to talk
to them as the point, you know, and and look,
but that's that's their decision.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
Then that is like, here's the thing is, people can.

Speaker 5 (31:26):
Get on Colin Morikawa for his decision not to talk,
but it's ultimately his decision. He's ultimately the one that
because he chose not to talk, now it becomes a
bigger issue at a major event when you like to
be focusing more just on golf. Now you have to
focus more on the fact that you didn't talk to
the media after a smaller event where things didn't go well.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
Well, Rory jump on the grenade like that though.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
Because Rory has carried the flag for the PGA Tour
for a long time now, he's essentially as Tiger Woods has,
you know, struggle with injuries, and even though he's carried
it for a long time, Rory has been that player
that's stepped up in defense of the PGA Tour, in
particular with the you know, competition against the Live Tour
and guys leaving for the Live Tour. He has been

(32:13):
one of the biggest strongest voices. So that's ultimately why
he was probably asked about it and why he feels
you know, emboldened to speak on it because he really
has been the leader for the PGA tour.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
He came across is very uh upity, like very very yeah,
very very like like overly privileged. He came across to me, Roy.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
Should try carrying a final round at Augusta once. Maybe
he should do wow, because I'll tell you that I'm
sick and tired of drawing his name out of the
hat every year it happens, and the year it happens.

Speaker 5 (32:48):
You know what's crazy about him, though, is if you
guys ever stood out at like a practice range and
watched all the pros hit I mean even Scotti Scheffler,
and then you watch Ry hit a golf ball, you'd
be like, who the hell's that guy? Like he should
crush everyone like he is. You can you can put
him up as far as the talent amongst any of

(33:08):
the greats in their sport.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
He is the guy.

Speaker 5 (33:11):
When you go watch him hit a golf ball or
play golf, you're like, that guy should win like every
single time. It is a little bit like when you
make that comment, it is interesting that he hasn't won
more considering his talent and in comparison to the rest
of the people he's playing against.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
It's absurd because watch him hit a golf ball.

Speaker 4 (33:29):
It's the only thing mission from his Grand Slam.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
Right.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
He's won every other tournament except for the Masters. All right,
so that being called Masters? By the way, what's the
like the history?

Speaker 5 (33:41):
You know, you don't have realized, you know, we can
rely on Groc to give his answer for this, okay,
because like it negates us from having to give our
you know, thought on why that may be the case.

Speaker 4 (33:57):
Masters of the game.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
I'm just jurious.

Speaker 5 (34:01):
The golf tournament is called the Masters because it's founder,
Clifford Roberts, wanted a name that conveyed, actually, we do this, right,
Can we play some Masters music that I.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
Think that makes all the sense? There you go, now
it's official. All right, let me try this again, do
it again.

Speaker 7 (34:15):
The golf tournament is called the Masters because it's founder,
Clifford Roberts, wanted a name that conveyed prestige and distinction,
reflecting the event's focus on showcasing the world's best golfers.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
The tournament, first.

Speaker 8 (34:35):
Held in nineteen thirty four at Augusta National Golf Club,
was initially co conceived by Roberts and legendary amateur golfer
Bobby Jones. They brainstormed several names, including augusta National Invitational Tournament.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
Let go ahead and plow through that question.

Speaker 8 (34:55):
Which was used for the first five years from nineteen
to thirty four to nineteen thirty eight. However, Roberts felt
invitation sounded too modest for the vision of an elite
exclusive event, and it then shifted to the master exclusive to.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
The golfers.

Speaker 3 (35:15):
Oh okay, any restrictions Are there any restrictions historically at
the course?

Speaker 1 (35:22):
I can't speak to that. Oh yeah, ask Rock you
can speak to it. I mean, I'll put it this way.

Speaker 5 (35:29):
As far as the people that I saw when I went,
it's very diverse, very diverse.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Nice. Yeah, I love that. All right, So great job,
by the way, Yeah, very well done, well done, very well.
So we gotta go to break. We are so up
against it. We got to go to break immediately right now.

Speaker 3 (35:53):
At Lea says we should skip the midweek awards and
we should drop them.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
What it's the good, the bad, and the ugly coming
up on your show.

Speaker 3 (36:00):
I know that's at least let's go what that's good, bet,
the good, the bet.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
And next we can do it. After petros we can
draw it names. Yes, let's do it. Let's do it.

Speaker 3 (36:13):
In the fourth out, we'll do it. Then, let's do
fourth try. Give us more time to convince LaVar to
try and pull one out of the hat. I'll pull
one out.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
Yeah.

out to d c pro free. You know, the fan
shots out to the fan. Oh black Betty, ram lamb,

intros that LeVar tried to crap on? No? Whoa Black Betty?
This wasn't one of my intro songs? No, was it?

Speaker 5 (37:47):
It's how drunk you are in no way you forget
some of the songs I've had that you actually like.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
I love this song. Yeah, there you go. That was
my intro for like four weeks. Was it really? I'm
just like, hey, and on you, that's all. It's not
that I don't like what you do. It's just that
it's it's more fun to hate on you. It seems racist,
that's fine, racist prejudice. Maybe my judgment of you. Yeah,

(38:14):
my judgment of Brady Quinn is to pick at you.
It's messed up, man, coming on. You don't want to
know what I think about you?

Speaker 4 (39:06):
All right, lead the lab, who's got what?

Speaker 6 (39:08):
As we do each and every Wednesday, we start with

Speaker 1 (39:10):
Jonas let us know.

Speaker 3 (39:11):
I'd like to give a shout out to somebody here
at the Fox Sports Radio family.

Speaker 4 (39:16):
Chris Plank.

Speaker 3 (39:18):
Back to back NCAA Tournament Fox Sports Radio Bracket Challenge winner,
one of the most difficult.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
Feats to pull off. He managed to do it.

Speaker 3 (39:29):
Congratulations to Plank, good dude, great performance and let's see
if he can go for a three p next year.
That's my good for the week.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
From good to bad? LeVar what was bad this week?
Duke choked it out and an NCAA tournament. Then Houston
choked it out the same way Duke choked it out
to them in the NCAA tournament. That's my bad for
the week, and from bad to worse, Brady.

Speaker 5 (39:52):
What was ugly we mentioned earlier the House nca settlement, Well,
it's not getting ugly, but it could get really ugly
for the nca AS. The US House of Representatives on
Monday basically put introduced a bill that would scrap the
NCAA al together for the American College Sports Association. It
would basically have a commissioner appointed by the President and

(40:13):
a lot of terms that would essentially make it a
professional sports look at this point.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
So it could be getting ugly for the NCAA right now.

Speaker 4 (40:20):
What do you think about that, Lee, I think that's
pretty damn ugly. It's called sticking the landing.

Speaker 1 (40:24):
That's how we do it, getting out on time. That's right.
I looked to my left and saw ugly too.
