Speaker 2 (01:53):
You're good Air Guitars. That's so chaotic music right there, Bro.
I mean your music selection tells me all I need
to know about the interview.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Bro.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
Hey man, I would never want to cross you to
the point of where the interview comes out. Man, that's
all I'm gonna say. Seven dust Man, that's some different type,
that's some different type of energy that's going to hit
the surface.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Man, I don't want any parts of that. Dude. I
think he'd be surprised if you saw the band photo.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
I think they captured you think. I think they captured
the essence of who you are and me myself and Irene.
Like when like that moment where he goes from being
the normal dude to the other dude, like when he
changes alter egos or whatever, changes personalities. That's you, bro,
that that music starts to play, there's a different you

(02:43):
that comes about.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't want to deal with him.
Well yeah, I mean it's just, uh, I think you'd
be surprised.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Man, you're sending it to me. Yeah, I'm sure you
look like a devil worshipper man. Not exactly the case. No, No,
it's the opposite direction. Yeah, it's it's not it's not
at all what you think it is. There's no way
we could go in a different direction, the other direction

(03:13):
than what the music that you be having playing.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
The band seven Dust and I have sent you the
band photo and I haven't gotten it. It's uh, you
will get it. It is not what you think it is.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
That is definitely not your band. But I am the
lead singer.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
I know this band. Yeah, that's yeah, I know that
it's a great band. Man seven Dust, Yeah. Jean Witherspoon,
I believe is the lead Singer's.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
So you're talking about so down low. So so you're
saying like it's a down low boy you can sing, Yeah,
that's that's a good band, Southern rock. But so you
had to have a black man for the southern rock
to leitmate.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
They're from Georgia. I don't know what to okay, just curious.
You can't make this up Georgia, just curious. So I
got it so from from that, which, by the way,
you don't have noticed. I saw an interview with kind
of in that genre of the late nineties. I saw
an interview with Wes Borland, who's the guitarist for Limp Biscuit,

(04:21):
and he said they are the biggest now that they've
ever been. All of these bands and acts from like
twenty five thirty years ago.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Or touring have heard Limp Biscuit in the wow. Well,
I say, like all the name I hadn't even heard.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
But all of these acts have now started to tour
again and they're selling out arenas all over the world.
There and making a fortune, because that's really the only
way you can really make money. That was by touring
coop you know what I'm talking about. I saw Limp
Biscuit for the first time like two years ago. Really awesome.

(04:57):
It was so.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Badass, Like that's crazy years ago, Like he was relevant
two years ago.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
It's like they're looking around going, yeah, we don't know
what happened, even said the interviews, I don't know why.
He's all just all of a sudden, which just became
nostalgia and for you know, nostalgia's pop back up and.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
People, which is relevant to our first topic because he's nostalgic.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
He sure. And that's somebody is the one and only
Lebron James. Yeah, that's right, Lebron James Stalgia. Yeah, the
the pride of Akron, Ohio, who was moved around in
all sorts of different places all throughout the last twenty

(05:42):
plus years. Two different places, well Cleveland, yes, Miami, right,
Cleveland Lake.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yeah, well two so let me say two different places
outside of Cleveland, So Miami, l A. So three three
teams altogether, I.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Mean, you know, and and by the way, Lebron James
and uh, you know, Brady Quinn, who supports and uh
and pounds the drum for Ohio. It should be pointed out,
Lebron James grew up in Ohio. Cowboy fan, Yankee fan.
That is very true, so true. For all the grief
that I get, for all the grief that I get,

(06:24):
that's a guy in your own backyard that cheering for
the Yankees and cheering for the Cowboys.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
I just want to it is interesting you bring us
up only because of your fandom for the Penguins, the Celtics,
the Chicago the Chicago Bears, for a guy who never
grew up anywhere other than California. So I'm not sure
why you are pointing. You know, you're you're putting Lebron
James and across.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Much like my radio partners, I'm a hore and a half.
Anybody can get it.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
Anybody anybody Well, now I know why would get that
explicit show.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
That's what we're talking about, Say Farmer, do we really
do we really? We'll talk parent We'll talk to the
break Wow where a rap album from the nineties time,
whatever happened to rap? How's that doing?

Speaker 4 (07:14):
To the top tank just saying it feels like forel
something changed recently and all of a sudden, there's there's
no more rap music at the top of the charts.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Well, there's really no more rap music, so the genre
has changed now.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Rich Paul was talking with Max Kellerman on their podcast
about the because there's people are waiting around going, hey man,
what's what's going on here? Are we going to get
this done? When's he going to make his choice? When's
he going to make his decision. The Miami Heat actually
had a little bit of an issue to where somebody
on their social media team or you know, their streaming

(07:51):
team accidentally sent out a link to a Lebron James
presser set for July twenty seventh. The Heat had to
come out publicly and say, well, no, that was a mistake.
That was they were just in preparation in case Lebron
does join the Heat, and it was a mistake and
it went out whatever that means. But Rich Paul, his agent,

(08:12):
was talking with Max Kellerman and the discussion became what's
taken so long? And the teams that they've heard of
heard from that want to know is there anything they
can do to try and move this over the goal line.
The Commissioner of the league is saying, hey, you do
have Just as you've mentioned, Rich, this enormous influence on
our TV schedule.

Speaker 5 (08:31):
There are people waiting you.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Isn't there is a case there that he does need to.

Speaker 6 (08:35):
I saw Adam in New York and we discussed it,
and like I said, it's still his choice.

Speaker 5 (08:41):
So if he doesn't really know, he can't rush it.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
So right now hes aware of this that he's not
there yet, and we're not going to be rushed.

Speaker 5 (08:48):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 6 (08:49):
I don't want to sit here and sound I just
say we're not going.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
To be rushed. That's totally fair for you to.

Speaker 6 (08:55):
It is his choice to make, and when he makes
the choice, he's making. There's been several people to call
and say, hey, Rich, is there anything more.

Speaker 5 (09:03):
We should be doing, we could be doing.

Speaker 6 (09:05):
And my answer is no, we don't need you to
go above and beyond about anything. We understand it. It's
clear all the messages have been saying they.

Speaker 5 (09:15):
Want to send me floor tickets.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
I can see what I have influence. We get it.

Speaker 6 (09:19):
And and and again there's there's roster spots that's not feeled.
If they want to feel their roster spots, we're not saying,
don't fill your roster spots.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
So uh, that is the the very latest as they
take their time and to milk this for all it's worth.
Lebron James's final free agency decision of his career.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
So what do you guys think he's contemplated right now?
Hounds like Miami. I just don't think that gets them
there though not.

Speaker 4 (09:49):
Not so much where, but like, like, like what's making
the decision for him?

Speaker 1 (09:57):
I think that he's I think he probably has a
at least an idea. It's you know, one or two teams.
It's Miami or Cleveland most likely. And I don't know
that this is necessarily a family decision. I still think
he's a little bit shook by the fact that the

(10:17):
Lakers decided we're going in another direction and you can
go figure this thing out on your own. I think
I think his expectation was that, of course they would
want me back, of course we would do this again.
For For all everything we've heard he likes La, he doesn't,
you know, That's why this story came out. Stay in
La traveled a Golden State back and forth for games

(10:39):
up in the Bay Area. I think that he's, you know,
maybe that's why he's acting out and doing, you know,
whatever he's doing publicly and behaving the way that he's behaving.
I think he's trying to sort of gather himself because
I don't think that he really wanted this to be
the direction he was taking this offseason.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Lebron has always been a leader. So taking the reframe
of of how I took it in context of the question,
I would say a say, a voice, some autonomy within
the organization and the team that he goes and plays for.

(11:19):
I think that that would be a driving force because
I would ultimately think that the team he chooses in
his mind, he believes what he brings to the table
mentally and experience wise would most likely be a major
factor and a difference for that team's level of success.

(11:40):
So I think his motivation would be I'm going somewhere
where my voice is respected, where me being here is respected,
and I'm able to have a say, Which there's that's
I would assume that's only going to be a small
amount of teams that would be available to him where
he just come in and have the Lebron Lebron presence.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yeah, does that makes sense? Yeah, No, it definitely makes sense. Yeah, Brady,
there could be some other stuff.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Yeah, yeah, I just I don't went too deep.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Oh gosh, I guess I'll go that far. Whoa, Okay,
all right, wow, No, I guess.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
I guess My point is this is is you've been
in the You've been in this game for so long
that at this juncture, is it just about winning championships?
If that's the case, you know, there's probably two, maybe
three teams you're looking at right now that you would
be contemplating between and some of the and some of

(12:49):
the pieces with Cleveland have you've been there, You've won
championships there. So I do wonder what the attraction is
to both those spots. Is it the familiarity? Is it
the fact that you feel like what they have on
the roster, and that's that gives you comfort in being
able to make it through? The East is the East
and I'm not having it to the West, which I

(13:10):
think we'd both agree when we're talking about this initially.

Speaker 5 (13:15):
You know, san Antonio is one of those teams.

Speaker 4 (13:16):
Okay, See, he's one of those teams that they might
look at them and maybe they're not even in the conversation,
but they're definitely gonna be tough to have to beat
to get through. So is you looking at the east
thing and this is the easier path, or does he
look at someplace like Golden State like you're saying, Jonas,
and maybe he wants to stay in la and commute
however that would work, but also there's something that could

(13:38):
be refreshing, something that.

Speaker 5 (13:39):
Would be you know, new and different.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
But to the LaVar's point, I mean, he just you know,
I wonder how deeply he's getting into this situation.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
You know, it's definitely starting to bubble up. Oh gosh,
all right, Yeah, I just don't think that.

Speaker 5 (13:57):
Yeah, how's that, LeVar for for a segment.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
I don't mean it was unexpected.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
I will not go back to my.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
I will not go back to my my thread of
our conversation for the rest of the show. Well, I'm
just I'm just into the show, you know, just say yes, man, what.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
I just uh?

Speaker 5 (14:22):
I mean, which which team is the crown jewel of
all these.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
I don't, I don't. I don't think. I don't think
Miami or Cleveland. He's winning a title, so I don't,
you know, I still think closer to Miami. Yeah, I
do I do as well too. There is a chance
that he could get it, but there cland but you know,
maybe they're he's chasing something different in Miami. I don't know,

(14:49):
like that's you know, that's also there's also that stuff
that could be.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Uh and he is at the tail end of his career,
you know.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
One last yes, so he's not gonna you know.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
You're not gonna mess around with it, you know what
I mean, He's not gonna walk through the back door
and just you know, all of a sudden, you know,
vault the heat to a title contender.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
I just think that there's there's other things that that
may may influence his decision.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
I just don't it's coming to the back door, even
like the way he wants to do it, because it
feels like he's being more you know, front facing though, I.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Mean either works, but what what don't you know? I
don't know what you mean. But I do hear that
that the seafood salad.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
In Miami is pretty dog all good, yes, specialized in
crab claws.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Do you guys think, uh, do you guys think that
he wanted crazy? Do you guys think that he wanted
to be a free agent? This offseason.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Huh, Well, I mean because he still has a kid
in school, is what you're saying.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Well, I think that he's going to have to.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Like, is the family traveling with him or aren't they
like staying put because one is in school.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
Maybe I think that this was the first time in
his career that somebody told him we're moving on, dude,
we're going in another direction. We're going to hand the
keys to the franchise over to somebody else. How how
many years has he been playing? Twenty nine something like that?
Long time?

Speaker 2 (16:38):
I mean, if at this point in your career somebody
said they're moving on from you and you're still a
top ten player considered in the league, I wouldn't take
too much offense to that, Especially after I just carried
Gasses in in the playoffs.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
I wouldn't take too much offense to it. I just wouldn't. Also,
do you think that he's like what would be Rich
Paul's talking about, he's going to take his time, going
to take his time, But they're all about you know,
the buzz, the marketing, the you know the promotion of
this whole thing. I think he's really taking his time. Well,
but training camp starts what this weekend? Right? Okay, So

(17:19):
once the NFLS gets here and training camp's going on,
I feel like this maybe should have all been handled
and sorted out, you know, earlier, because I don't I
don't think it's going to have the impact that maybe
they think it's going to. It's not going to be.
I don't think they're looking for an impact. I think
really no, they're always looking for I think he's looking
for it too. He's already impactful. He saw those pictures.

(17:41):
Always go for an impact. So I mean, if you're gonna,
you know, land on something, land on Plymouth rocks. Yeah.
So the chase is on man and uh and now
everybody's trying to figure out whether or not. Uh where
did that come from? Where?

Speaker 5 (17:58):
I feel like I feel like the old LeVar would
have really dug into this.

Speaker 4 (18:02):
I would have been I don't feel like you're as invested. Nope,
I don't. I don't feel like you're as I don't know,
plugged in, Nope. To this is as much as I
thought you'd be. I ain't touching it.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
Broke, I've broken bad habits, y'all touched though, y'all trying
to set me.

Speaker 4 (18:21):
Up and I'm not going I set you up. This
is this conversation is completely about Lebron. I'm not really
sure how what that has to do with you.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
I wish everybody out here could know what what dirty
scumbags you guys are.

Speaker 5 (18:35):
Gosh, you know what in the world.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Yeah, I mean that's how we got that explicit.

Speaker 4 (18:41):
Only first off, let me let everyone else goes out
there know all right, don't lower your standards, all right,
that's the one thing. Just because you get older, just
get more tired, your testosterone starts to go and all
that stuff. Go ahead and grab yourself some M drive
and driver, Right, that's why who I started my That's
part of my daily routine every morning.

Speaker 5 (18:57):

Speaker 1 (19:07):
It can help you. You're gonna need that M draft. Well,
I mean, why cover up anything at that point? You
know what? I mean, what are you accomplishing there? Well?
What are we doing?

Speaker 2 (19:20):
That could be considered to be a valid question ask
but needs clearing up.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
By the way, if Lebron James does make any sort
of a decision on this show, we will have uh,
we will get to play our our breaking news sounder.
But we didn't play our Watch twenty twenty six imaging,
which I don't know if they took it off my board.
Really well, we'll get it for you, Jonas. Why was
that explicit too? Did you see the face Lorena made

(19:49):
at you? Wow?

Speaker 5 (19:51):
Well watch.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
He will not be rushed. Wait Lolrenda, I didn't, did
I I'm not trying to, you know, act like I'm
impressed with somebody else's voiceover work. You're still the number one.
I don't want you to think that, Oh my gosh,
you hit it right on the head. Okay, you know
I don't like other females on this show. No, no, no,

(20:17):
I'm just saying, you know, I feel like you would
have done a better job. Of course, let's her Brady's
drop less her Brady's drop twins. Whens, See how quick
she got to that? Well? That want to keep on

(22:22):
right now, it is time for the tire Rack Play
of the Day. First pitch flies it to straightaway center field.
He'll on his horse on the warning track at the wall.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
Goodbye, Max Monsey into the trees in center field to
flip the scoreboard.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
That called. Courtesy of the Blowtorch AM five seventy LA
Sports Dodgers Radio Network. That is your tire Rack Play
the Day. For over forty years, Tirerack's been helping customers
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
Shipped fast and freeback by free Road, has a protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire rack
dot Com. The way tire buying should.

Speaker 5 (22:58):
Be you can have big Cubs win last night interesting.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
Okay, hard to pick a highlight, and then eleven and
to two win, you know, bounce back from crushing defeat
the night before, and then just put it on him.

Speaker 5 (23:10):
Oh just workman like you know, uh munch, pale hard hat.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Yeah, I get it.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
And your truck and that truck doesn't need to make
a fuss. That's the Nissan Frontier built for the work week,
you know that we're talking about, and ready to load
up that tailgate on the weekend. Get you a twenty
twenty six Nissan Frontier.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
I mean, you know it is going to create a
little bit of an awkward situation. The Cubs have the
most walk off wins of anybody in Major League Baseball,
and if they get another one, because they've done it
all year, I mean, it's gonna vault itself to a
probable play of the day candidate and then Patty's gonna
get popped. So I don't know what to tell you,

(23:49):
Like this is just the way he's going to get popped.
The way this works out here, I mean that was
implemented yesterday. That was a new uh pause, a new
fine so as it should, all right, so we've talked
a lot about.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
You watching you by Patty. Should be a fine, should
be a fine?

Speaker 1 (24:07):
Wait? What what we talked about Miami? The first segment
with the Miami Heat, Uh, you know, in the running
apparently for Lebron James. Apparently they are they're one of
all the stops. Yeah, and the Miami Dolphins are also

(24:31):
apparently pulling out all the stops. Jordan Brooks, linebacker for
the Dolphins, very good line brown linebackers. What gets a
three year point three extensions thirty five million dollars guaranteed,
And so the Miami Dolphins get another deal done this offseason,

(24:54):
which is kind of interesting considering I think a lot
of people just assume that this is a team that's
playing for the future. Yet they're paying guys this offseason.
They did it with Devon h Chan and they've done
it now with Jordan Brooks the linebacker there, and so
maybe they see an opportunity I don't know, or maybe

(25:15):
they're just building blocks for the future and they want
to make sure they keep these guys in the building. Cute.

Speaker 4 (25:20):
I mean, they also gave Milik Willis forty five million guaranteed,
so it's not like they're not spending money and trying
to build their roster with some I would say cornerstone
pieces to move forward with.

Speaker 5 (25:31):
Now, Milik will still prove himself that.

Speaker 4 (25:34):
He can be that guy. But I look at and
just say I don't I don't necessarily agree with Pete
that they'll be as bad as he's saying they're going
to be. I think oftentimes we get enamored with veterans
and we look at them differently from the outside than
maybe other teams are are looking at the situation. The Dolphins,

(25:58):
no doubt, are in a spot where they've got a
lot of young pieces on their roster. They're trying to
sort out and figure out who's gonna be some guys
moving forward. But they've identify a handful of guys that
will be the future of this team and will be
a part of the team in the years to come.
So I look at it and just say it's definitely

(26:18):
a rebuild. But I wouldn't be surprised that they were
a bit more competitive then maybe people are giving them
credit for. On the outside. I think there's a lot
of unknowns too. I mean, like, what's this offense gonna
look like with Milik Willis you know, is he is
he gonna be a guy who's you know, running half

(26:39):
the time throwing. I mean, there's a lot of question
marks around how you're gonna be about preparing for it.
So I'm not saying they're gonna be a playoff team.
I'm not saying they're gonna be a winning team. I
don't know that they're gonna be last in the league,
and I think they could find themselves in much more
competitive situations.

Speaker 5 (26:54):
I'll put it this one.

Speaker 4 (26:55):
I don't thin they're gonna give up what' seventy or
whether they gave up because that's a Baltimore year ago?

Speaker 5 (27:00):
Is that like three years ago?

Speaker 1 (27:03):
No, wasn't it? Didn't they score seventy on Denver?

Speaker 5 (27:06):
Was that what it was?

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Yeah? Because Okay, I don't think.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
I don't think they're gonna do that either either way.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
Either way, all I was saying is I think there'll
be a bit more competitive in a lot of tight
games this year, and.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
We'll see how the chips fall.

Speaker 2 (27:21):
I like Jordan Brooks. I like his game, high moder guy,
multi multi dimensional player. You can get get productive reps
out of him in the passing game, and you go
also get him in the run game, and you can
also get him in the pass rush game, so he
can play every down you can. You can move him

(27:42):
from inside to out, he can cover in space. He's
been a good player for for the Dolphins, and you know,
I like the signing. You know, obviously he comes across
as a leader. He is LB, but he comes across
as a leader. It looks like he's like well respected.
So maybe it seems like they're trying to figure out
a way to build the culture or maybe build on

(28:05):
the culture. Maybe they may have felt that they were
starting to build. I'm not sure which one one it is,
but I think it's a golden opportunity. Right if you're
a Miami Dolphin, you got to look at it from
the standpoint of where this team is right now. You
get a new coach, you get a new start, You're
getting a new quarterback. He's a quarterback that's probably going

(28:27):
to be super motivated to play very well and is
probably looking at himself as an underdog. I mean, it
could be the perfect storm for this situation. You know,
you look at the Dolphins, they are going to be
considered to be an underdog and as a team, this
year and probably in most of the games that they

(28:48):
play in. So if I'm these guys like, Okay, you
scored a nice contract, like get it in. If I'm
a league Willis, I'm getting it in. They like the
whole to rekill thing. Who has an opportunity to step
up and step in and be the face of our
receiving corps. There's just so many opportunities, and I think

(29:10):
sometimes we get a little bit removed from looking at
it from that perspective, and and sometimes the unknowns are,
you know, are the biggest things that that you need.
I mean, look at look at the New England Patriots.
It was kind of an unknown offseason and there were
a lot of moves that that Mike Mike Vrabel made,
a lot of new players came in, a lot of

(29:33):
different things that were done through free agency, and he
was able to build a group that that were able
to come together and make it all the way to
the Super Bowl. So I wouldn't count them out. They
they probably I mean, they have a plan and it
seems like they're probably trying to execute it the best
that they can. So I'm not saying that they're going

(29:53):
to be this this world beating team.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
But I'm just saying it.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Is pretty cool to watch a team that that has
so many question marks that are hanging over them. Because
they're pros that are in that locker room. Somebody has
the opportunity to step up and deliver what the goods
are for this team.

Speaker 1 (30:10):
Their win total on DraftKings just four and a half.
So if they lose very much believed. So if they
lose twelve games, they've overachieved. That's a bad football team, man,
Like that's they're just they're not good. No, they're not.
But like I said, I think they'll be fine. I
mean the Seattle Seahawks.

Speaker 4 (30:28):
Before twenty twenty five, did they open up like sixty
to one long shots to win the Super Bowl.

Speaker 5 (30:32):
Yes, I'm sure Miami's worse than that.

Speaker 4 (30:35):
I'm just saying I don't. It was a young team
that was able to kind of again put it together.
And this team's not going to be them again. They're
not gonna be a super Bowl winning team, playoff team,
but I'm not sure they're gonna be as bad as
Pete's laying it out to be.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
You think they're they're drafting a quarterback next year.

Speaker 5 (30:56):
I think it'd be hard not to. It'd be hard
not to for a number of teams.

Speaker 4 (31:01):
I mean, Arizona is right now in a contract negotiation
with Jacoby Brissette as they can't agree upon his value,
and part of that is because they're gonna go into
the season most likely with him with the full expectation
and intention to draft one next year. Miami's in a
similar boat, even given what Malik bools they gave him.

(31:21):
You know, he's gonna have to have an unbelievable year.
I mean, he's gonna have to have a Pro Bowl
caliber year in order to I mean even make them
second guess about taking one. I just I keep going
back to this, there will be so many guys. Just
there's gonna be so many prospects. And I know I've
sent stuff to you guys too about other people now
starting to catch on to this and say the same thing.

(31:43):
I'd like to plan my flag as saying again, like
there's twelve to thirteen guys that I will be evaluating
every single week that will legitimately be looked at his
potential first round prospects. It's just it's gonna be that
big of a class. And this isn't like last year.

(32:04):
This isn't like you know, years before. There's there's a
lot of guys who are very capable of being potential
franchise quarterbacks in the NFL or being looked at as that.
And if that's the case, that's just two teams we
named that, doesn't I mean like the Jets probably would
be in that conversation. You can go on down the
line for a lot of other teams. There's gonna be
teams that might have a guy and might be saying,

(32:27):
all right, well, you know, like very similar with the
Rams of this past year and taking Ty Simpson, our
guys getting up there in age, so I got to
look at someone else. I mean, the Pittsburgh just drafted
quarterbacks the last two years. I think they'd still potentially
take one with where Rodger's at in his career.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
That's why it feels different than in the year's past,
where there's one guy that stands out above everybody else
and it's like, well, you know, who's gonna suck for luck?
Like who's going to be, you know, the one to
grab that once in a generation quarterback? And I almost
wonder if maybe teams it feels like the way that
you lay it out. Just be in the top ten
or twelve in the draft like you don't like. It's

(33:03):
not no longer a race to who can be the
worst team or try and tank towards the end to
get the number one pick. If you can be in
the top ten to twelve, you're most likely going to
be able to get a franchise quarterback, right. I mean,
that's that's what it feels like. So maybe Miami's looking
at this going, yeah, maybe we win a few more games,
which some of our fan base might say, well, we
need a quarterback of the future. But if we've got

(33:25):
a foundational pieces to bring in some guy, if we're
picking eighth or ninth because we overachieved, then you know
we're still in a good spot moving forward, right with
whoever we can land so fun times Well, who knows,
maybe Lebron will be there to take in some Dolphin
games this upcoming season. We'll see. It is two Pros

(33:46):
and a Cup of Joe. Here on Fox Sports Radio,

Speaker 3 (34:53):
Sometimes you can't get to everything in the world of
sports or entertainment. Good thing the guys are here to
bring you.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
In case you missed it, guys. In case you missed this, uh,
the attorney for the woman who was suing Puka Nakua
the Rams, released a photo showing what is alleged to
be a bite mark on her shoulder from a New
Year's Eve incident.

Speaker 5 (35:19):
A legend.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
It's either that or she swam with sharks, but it's
it's not great. And I look, I know that he
you know, went to rehab and whatnot, and you know
he's trying to trying to get things together, but not
a great look. And I can't imagine, uh, this is
going to uh going to land well publicly. It got

(35:45):
out yesterday and it's a that that's a real, real
bite mark. I mean it's a real one. Marv Albert
would be uh proud of them. I don't know. I
hope not, but you know, who knows. Maybe it was
the booze. I just know this. I've been blasted many

(36:07):
times in my life. I've never thought to bite somebody
in that manner and and nearly break skin with full
fledged with full fledged teeth imprints there. But this is why.
And this is a great, a great thing. If you

(36:28):
are somebody who is in the veneer business, because you
get yourself a pair of veneers. You're not biting into
anything because them bad boys are gonna break. You can't
bite into a carrot, you can't bite into an apple.
Everything's got to be chewed on the side of either
either portion of your mouth. So pooka, yeah, you can't
get none of that stuff. You know, you gotta be careful.
You can't. You can't have the wings. You know, you

(36:50):
can't bite into wings if you got veneers. So pooka,
get some veneers and and get with it, man, so
you can stop biting human beings when you're out celebrating
New Year's Eve. It's wrong with you, man, What do
you mean? Listen, everybody wants to swim in the problem pool.
I'm trying to find solutions. As I always say, don't

(37:15):
swim with problems, snorkel with solutions, all right, And I'm
trying to help this guy out here. Get some porcelain
teeth and stop biting people. What what don't swim with
problems like that? Just thought of it? Just now, what

(37:37):
if they were, Someone's gonna take a bite out of it?
What a weirdo? Pukaku is a weirdo.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
So I mean if that really is real, like, if
that is a real real like, there is a real problem.
It's a weird if that is truly indeed a real
photo of whoever, if that's who can to coo with that?

Speaker 1 (38:09):
Did that? There's something really wrong? By the way, how
drunk do you have to be to confuse somebody's shoulder
with a boil and bite mouthpiece? I mean, is it that?

Speaker 4 (38:22):
I mean it was there confusion or was he just like,
you know, the dig my teeth into that?

Speaker 1 (38:28):
I mean, but he really some people.

Speaker 4 (38:32):
Some people appreciate a nice back my tisimus dor sigh.

Speaker 5 (38:37):
You know something, I'll make a bite of that.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
He just got his teeth clean.

Speaker 2 (38:42):
You could tell by the little the little like little
lines and where the small teeth are like they scraped them.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
They scraped his teeth.

Speaker 5 (38:50):
It was like he bit and held it for a while.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
Bro, he bit. It's like a cat and picking up
their uh, one of their babies.

Speaker 5 (38:59):
It was like she went in to get an impression
for a retainer.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
Yes, yes, that's an impression and.

Speaker 5 (39:05):
Turn back like they could make him a set of invisil.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
Line yes, and use her back as a carrying case. Now,
if negotiations for a long term extension. Get get dicey
with the rams. They just.

Speaker 5 (39:21):
That'll be the clause.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
Hey, buddy, here's why you're getting twenty million less guaranteed.
Just slide it right across the table. That's put a clause.
You know, they know he's a bier. Now you just
write that into the contract.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
Like, look sir, you're gonna give you the money, but
if you bite again, this all goes away. It's gonna
like it's gonna avoid all guarantees in your contract.

Speaker 5 (39:41):
We know you've got a problem here, pal.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
I mean, shouldn't this really raised flags? Like, what's what's theause?

Speaker 4 (39:52):
Yes, is maybe it's a vampire, maybe jonas all.

Speaker 1 (39:58):
We could use some Polynesians in our face.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
That's the worst clause than Kyler Murray clause for the
video games or a bite clause.

Speaker 2 (40:04):
Oh, fighting clause would be way worse. Yeah, I think, yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
How many other.

Speaker 4 (40:11):
Dudes are looking at him though, and they're like, yeah, yeah,
I like to do that to a little bit.

Speaker 5 (40:15):
You know, I could see it.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
Most of these dudes these days are in the video
games like they're really into it.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
Kyler was years ahead of his time. Man, all these
twitch streamers I.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
Don't know, man, There's always been dudes that's into their
video games. I used to get into fights with my
roommate in college because.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
Of video games.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Like we had one TV and when we would leave
study hall, we would actually race to the room because
whoever got the TV got to use the TV.

Speaker 1 (40:44):
And then did the person who lost bite somebody or
was that not part of the equation.

Speaker 2 (40:49):
But we got into some thumps, man, and real classic
thumps up in that room over him playing that video game.

Speaker 1 (40:55):
Have you got some bitten another human being or even
thought to do it? Yes, I might have been an
ankle before. What do you say, Claretta A.
