A star was born in the NFL. We will get
into it coming up here in just a couple of
moments from now. It's Two Pros Are and a Cup
(00:41):
of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio. It's LaVar Arrington,
It's Brady Quinn, It's Jonas Knox with you here on
fs ARE. It's a football Friday. You can hang out
with us on the I Heart Radio app. You can
find us on hundreds of Fox Sports Radio affiliates soever are. Yeah,
it is Friday. Damn right, I suppose what else was?
It's not football season, but still a football Friday break down,
(01:05):
an NBA game, some fight between the Jazz and the Pacers.
Last night come on, get out of here with that?
Was that? Wasn't that? Two nights ago? Was the last?
Last night Rudy Gobert and um from Texas. No, no, no,
The Rudy Gobert joint was funny. Is all get out man? Like?
(01:25):
You know what I love about moments like that is
it's like it's like in boxing matches, right, you will
see guys box and they go the entire round and
then something happens right after the bell and then you'll
see they got to hold them back and get them
back to the corner. It's like you just had all
these minutes the whooper's ass and you didn't do anything,
(01:48):
and now somebody's got to hold you back from getting
to him. Now, Like Rudy, you grabbed the man shorts.
He didn't like it, He got no call. He roughs
you with the elbow. If you are going to retaliate,
I'm sorry. Maybe I sound maybe barbaric, Maybe I sound
like what what you would call a typical former linebacker,
(02:13):
uh thumper. You gotta whoop his ass. If you're going
to go back at him, body slam him, supplex him,
put one into it like like like straight you know,
rock him in his in his stomach. I ain't gonna say,
punch him in the face or anything like that, but well,
I'm not gonna do I'm not gonna go that far.
But you definitely could have punched him in the stomach
(02:36):
if you didn't think that you were gonna be strong
enough to get the man down. But to go from
it looking like straight beef and straight drama to waltzing
on the NBA court, and then the moment they break
y'all up, it's like, hold me back from him, hold
me back, I'm about the lace him up, hold me back,
don't let me go, because if you let me go,
(02:56):
he's in trouble. Like no, he's not seen. And that's
why Brady made the point a day or two ago
when he said that darn Darren Williams. Yeah, and uh
and Frank or fight. I mean a lot is on
the line here. You got nbavior's NFL with the Darren
Williams and fighters right there. Man, all Frank Gore needs
(03:16):
to do is just tug on Darren Williams shorts and
it's going to create this uproar. Is that? I mean,
that's essentially how Gobert and Miles Turner got into the fight,
right yeah, yeah's faces. I mean if he just walks
over fourth fight tugs on the shorts, it's on like that,
that's all. I mean. Brady tugs on my shorts all
the time. I just tell me, man, I'm married. I've
(03:38):
ever tugged your short time anyway. Um look, look, here's
the thing. Here's the thing, right said terrorists that we're
not going. Hey, look man, this fight with with Williams
and Gore, it's like you're now the the takes have
(04:02):
go way further up because now I'm sitting there at
like Nate Nate Pete and I'm like, come on, man,
like or Nate Robbins, excuse me, like you got like
I understand why basketball players get knocked out. Man, y'all
y'all are some soft serve. He's a dope. I'm sorry
(04:28):
to do it. I was a basketball player at one point.
Maybe that's why I had to go to football because
I was I was okay with fouling out because I
was I was, you know, I just wasn't and I
did punch somebody in the face after a game at
one point two. By the way, I would just say this,
I let's just say this. That is something you always
(04:49):
notice as a football player going and playing basketball. I
grew up playing all three sports. But like you tend
to play more physical, like I box you out like
you're not gonna get a rebound. Defensively, people get like
upset and fired up on hand checking stuff, like they
don't want to be touched. They won't want to be bothered.
It's like, well, don't try to drive to the lane,
(05:11):
like you put your shoulder down and you're gonna try
to drive into me. I'm not gonna move man, Like,
especially in a pickup game where no one's calling charges, like,
don't initiate contact and act like there's not gonna be
contact coming back your way. No one, no one, just
no official or ref out here calling a charge like that.
I've never under Did you ever play at the Wreck
(05:33):
building against your other teammates on the football team. Oh yeah,
I mean we we had college. We used to play.
We had what I'm saying in college. Yeah, we used
to always fight. I got to a fight almost every
time we played at Directory. Like, man, don't put listen,
don't play against the ball. Football players couldn't play with
(05:56):
anyone else because we played so rough, Like if you're
going to the hoop, you're going to the like no
one's calling fouls. You go up to try to dunk it.
Guess what, try dunk on someone. Well, you're gonna get hit,
but you better make sure you jump high enough, like
you better make sure you finish the dunk, otherwise you're
coming down the wrong By the way, how do you
think it went for the first guy who tried Julius
(06:16):
Peppers on a basketball floor? Julius Peppers. I mean, come on,
at some point, somebody must have thought, like, who's this guy.
I'm better I've seen that firsthand. We would train out
in Arizona and there was a like a half core
basketball court, and I was just like, this dude, I
would never ever play a pick up game against only
(06:40):
with and even then I'm passing him the ball like
I'm not, I'm not doing anything because I'm just gonna
keep dribbling pass. We we think, all, right, basketball player
turn football player tight ends. You know, Tony Gonzalez, Jimmy Graham,
those guys. But Julius Peppers was a monster. Peppers was
one football player play basketball. Be clear, those other guys
(07:02):
your name and those were basketball players that played football
and and adapted and adjusted to football. Julius Peppers is
a killer dog. Like you don't. That's not the type
of smoke that you would want to run up on
and get involved in. Like you know what. I can
remember before he came out, he was still in school
and him and Ryan Sims came to my my home
(07:23):
one time, um for a cookout that I had, which
was an epic, amazing cook out. By the way, what
happened it was everything you know. Sons of b stole
my my CD collection though that was the only thing
that happened at that party that I didn't like was
after everybody cleared out my my CD collection, which took
me literally like two years to to accumulate um what
(07:48):
I did, and it was such an amazing collection. But anyway,
the point is is that was the first time I
had met Julius Peppers in person. Like he came through.
He wanted to come hang out, talk to me, you learn,
learn about what what it was gonna be like. So
he's at the crib, we're hanging out and when he
walked in the door, just the first thing I thought
to myself was he scares me, and not not because
(08:14):
he was a scary person, like super dope dude, super
cool dude, real laid back, real chill. But when you
start to look at him, like, yeah, I looked at him,
not like how I looked at Prince. It was different
when I looked at when I looked at Julius Peppers,
I was like, like, you know, because he played we
played similar position. I mean, he was at d N,
(08:35):
but I also played d N. I was a linebacker,
but I also played d N at times. And I'm
looking at him and I'm like at the time, like
a big dude. I'm sitting there thinking like I'm a
big dude. And he came walking in and he dwarfed me,
and and not only did he make me look small,
but then when you look at like the details of
like his his his veins and and how like like
(08:58):
you know, his forearm looked. Then then his shoulder went out,
like his shoulder blades was out there, like you mess
with him. If you mess with him, you're looking for
a paycheck or or a casket one or the two.
You're not looking. That's not a sensible decision. By the way,
he's fifth all time and sacks Julius Peppers. Uh, he's
(09:21):
got the first time you're saying three d pounders didn't
even want to deal with him on the football field day, Like,
just go ahead and you know the quarterback. I don't
want none of that. Forget that man, Um all right? So,
so speaking of stars, um, how do we feel about
Robert Hunt, the offensive lineman for the Miami Dolphins, who,
(09:41):
for some reason, I thought, you know what, maybe that
maybe that screen pass was to me? And then um,
I guess okay, but let me ask you this, because
it's amazing athleticism to see the way and just knowing
where the end zone was and still stretching it. He
probably thought midway through the run, all right, I shouldn't
(10:02):
have this ball. This is a penalty. But since I'm here,
why don't I try and at least make it look
like a touchdown? Seeing how he handled the football, They're
going to find a package for him offensively, right, I mean,
good man. I actually already think, um they do use
him as like an extra tight end from time to time. Um,
(10:23):
So I do think they've got something like that already
in their system. But yeah, now maybe you're thinking more
like the fridge, you know, put him in the backfield,
let him run the football in there with like a
jumbo running backpackage, because let's not forget this is not
a good team of running the football that the Dolphins
didn't really run the football well last night. Robert Hunt
(10:43):
maybe transitioning now to the goal line back for the
Dolphins moving forward. He looked athletic, man, bro He looked
like a lobster trying to hold that football. He wanted it.
See how big his his hands and his fanted that
ball away. It got away. It was like he was
trying to gather up a golf ball. Man. That was crazy, man.
(11:06):
But he was explosive in his movements, I'll tell you that.
And that's just one of those things where you say,
people don't realize how athletic everybody is in the league.
It's like, oh, he's not athletic, or he's not this,
or he's not that. Hey listen, It's like in basketball,
like you don't realize how far that NBA three point
(11:26):
you know line is until you get out there on
the court and it's like, man, like, how do you
even see well enough to shoot the ball through that that?
You know, through the rim? Well, that's like football. You
don't realize how fast the whole thing is. You if
you're ever fortunate enough to stand on the sideline and
watch a game from the sideline, and how fast all
(11:48):
of them are moving. It's it's amazing to see that.
It is such an amazing thing to watch those those
guys move the way that they do. I mean, that's
probably why I love still being a part of the game.
It's the most impressive thing I think about that as
far as football, Like, like in the NFL, the most
impressive thing is seeing three d pound men move the
(12:12):
way they do athletically everything the way they do. Uh.
And honestly, it was like the first thing I think
I noticed, Like as you go up through the ranks,
it's it's not the speed like fast as fast you
see small guys or bigger guys who are pretty fast.
It's the way the big guys and the type of
athletes that they are, like how flexible, how agile they are.
(12:34):
You just don't you don't see that, Like you walk
around the world, you don't see big people like that,
and when you do, they definitely aren't moving like these
guys do. So to your point, man, that is. It's
one of the more impressive things. Man. It's like it
kind of be like it's kind of like when you're
just gonna say, like when you go to the zoo
you see massive animals and you're like you're just in
(12:56):
awe of like how massive and big they are. It's
kind of like that, like like just to give people
like an idea in their head, like when you're looking
at a rhino or you're looking at an elephant, you're like,
oh my god, that's a big creature. That's how you
feel going into the NFL. You see somebody's living in
the line and you're like, that's a massive creature. And Bro,
they move like a panther. Like that's crazy. Yeah, because
(13:21):
they moved slow, Like like I tell you, I'd be
seeing these beers around the crib man, and they moved
so slow. But they walk away slow, they look at
you slow. Everything is just slow and athargic. But they
can really move. When they need to move, they move.
And that's the craziest thing about it, man. Bro. When
(13:44):
we were in when we were in Iowa and I
saw our lineman, I was like goo, googla, moogla. Look,
and then I was on the sideline. Why, I said,
I will come down to come warm up. And then
and then the lineman got closer and closer and closer,
(14:08):
and I was like, holy bleep. And I think I
think that they go out they can't hear me. I
think bigger than when we play, because I feel like
they're everyone's bigger. Man, I think they're bigger. They didn't
look they didn't look like they were. They were avatars, man,
they weren't. They were not of this planet. Like, I
(14:29):
don't think I recall our guy now, Courtney Brown was
an avatar, Like, I ain't gonna lie about that. Courtney
was an avatar. But these linemen were ginormous, man, they
were general and I mean they weren't fat. It wasn't
like ginormously like these big fat boys. I mean they
were like bigger versions of yoked up dudes. Like I
(14:50):
don't know, man, it's it kind of scares me a
little bit. Like now, I asked myself, like do you
ever ask yourself like, how the hell did I fixed
my mind to be on the field with them? Uh? No,
not now, I'll tell you that. Not now some smoke. No,
(15:13):
it's two pros and a cup of Joe's LaVar Arrington,
Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox of the here on Fox Sports Radio.
You can hang out with us as always on the
I Heart Radio app. So coming up next, Um, there
was a decision made in the world of football this week.
It's very puzzling, but it does impact this weekend for
two members of this show. We will get into that
(15:35):
for you next year on Fox Sports Radio. Be sure
to catch live editions of Two Pros and a Cup
of Joe with Brady Quinn, LaVar Arrington and Jonas Knox
weekdays at six am Easter three am Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio. It's Two Pros
and a Cup of Joe here Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington,
(15:55):
Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox here on FS are coming up
in uh less than a minutes from now. There's a
report out there about a potential blockbuster trade that nearly
got done in the NFL. We will have that for
you here less than ten minutes from now on Fox
Sports Radio and and also later on this hour, the
(16:15):
dreaded Double T s here We've got details details on
Russell Wilson's rehab process. This is a good video. It
is man, you talk about going above and beyond man,
that Russell Wilson is something else man, just just a
special guy through and through. So that would be happening
(16:36):
later this sid that music that brought us in sounded
like that Rocky and and and it sounds like, you know,
for Russell Wilson, he's looking to be the Rocky of
NFL football. Yeah, I mean, listen, who wouldn't want to
be the Rocky of of NFL football. I mean, he
doesn't want to lose pace on getting that m VP
Award for the first time. I think I've gotten a vote.
(17:01):
He has yet to jump on that board. Yeah, I
don't think he's ever gotten a vote. It's crazy to
me only because he has played at a really really
high level throughout his career, especially in spurts or or
like half a season. I mean played at a really
high level. You do have to ask yourself for wonder
if he was like with the Rams with Sean McVeigh
(17:24):
and that system, or Bruce Arians the way he likes
to air it out Sean Payton, I mean, wouldn't you
have won one by now? Is it fair to say that?
Let me let me reverse, Let me reverse float at
if Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady were in Seattle, what
(17:44):
they have gotten an m v P award during the
course of their career. I don't know. I mean that
it's so it's such a hard style on which Pete
Carroll wants to play. It's all about the ball, defense,
run the football. He doesn't like to air it out.
I feel like Pete Carroll feels uncomfortable when they're throwing
the football too much. And so it's hard to say
(18:06):
that any quarterback is going to put up the statistical
numbers regardless of who they are, except Lamar maybe because
he runs Yeah because yeah, good point, great point besides him,
So so they wentn't have gotten m vps then. So
so then Russell Wilson's complaints about him being the greatest
and he's unlimited, Um, it kind of is true based
(18:27):
off of the schematics that he's playing in. The toughest
thing about that, though, is you know when when Russell
first got into the league, that's when they had the
best team. That's when the legion of Boom was rolling.
And so usually what coincides with the m v P
as your team has to be in it you have
to be in the hunt for one of the top
teams in the NFL, like we There's been instances of
(18:49):
players who have had finotal seasons. Remember David Johnson had
like that over two thousand scrimmage yard. It was unbelievable season,
right and it filled by the wayside because the Cardinals
were having a bad season. You know, no one even
no one really even talked about it. Yet he was
arguably the best player in the NFL that year. So
that's usually how it works. It's kind of like the Heisman.
(19:10):
You know, we just talked about claud about that, like
it might go to Bryce Young or c J. Stroud,
and you know, are they deserving of it? I mean,
I think Young is. I think he's incredible. But you know,
it also has to do with the fact that their
team's planning for potentially in national championship, Like Kenny Pickett
probably should win it or could win it, but you know,
Pitt's not playing for that national championship. At least it
(19:31):
doesn't look like that's gonna be the case. You mentioned
talking to Joel Clatt. We did talk to Joel Klatt,
you know, who usually has something, uh, he would like
to say about the college football playoff ranking. Is not
a big fan of the process in general. Um, now
Michigan is actually on the road. They're gonna be playing
(19:52):
gud who's that team that they're playing. That's right, that's right. Yeah, yeah,
uh uh uh uh oh yeah yeah. There it is
(20:35):
the pride and joy of the Nitney lion sticks Arrington
serenading you on a Friday. But I love it, man, Like,
that's what makes part of college football what it is like,
the pageantry, the bands, the fight songs and all that.
I have this argument with Pete Prisco, and he's an
Arizona State a lum, and I always exactly that's why
(20:58):
I said him, I go, you didn't go to a
school with a good football program. You don't have a
good fight song, Like there's nothing for you to be
like proud of or excited about. And so that's why
he doesn't understand anytime you talk about the atmosphere in
college being better than that in the NFL. It's more corporate,
little more sterile. But that I mean, I didn't think
(21:20):
about this. LaVar is a grown ass man. He's up
here singing. He's up there singing that. So that's how
much it means to him. Right, and he's nude. He's nude,
that's right. He robed when that came on, and he
does everything. I had like the Valcro outfit on it,
and it immediately what you were, like a Steven Seagal.
(21:45):
It's a regular outfit. It's just it's just got Valcro. Right.
I'm always ready for a Penn State song to come
on naked no better where I am at. Do you
have a g I could picture you wearing? Would like,
you know, since I tell people I'm not a coach,
I'm a since I don't train and teach football, I
(22:08):
train and I teach masters. I teach samurai. So do
you have a gear? A few different uh uh wardrobes
attires that would would fall in line with something like that.
I have hoodies like that, in fact, I think you've
In fact, I had on a shirt a gee like uh,
(22:31):
you know, one of those type combat outfit church yesterday, Jonas.
I don't know if you notice that. Listen, I'm too
busy looking into your eyes. I can't stay I get it,
by the way, with the way that your day started yesterday,
I wasn't trying to judge you on your attire. I
didn't want to go down that. Did you see the
(22:53):
eyes when I came into that that studio. I've known
the bar about three months. I knew he was piste off.
I can tell I just knew, uh that he was
pissed off about what was happening. Now, but at least
you know, I don't lose control. Yeah, I mean some
people lose control when they're as upset as I was
at that moment. Now, you was, I shake stuff off
(23:13):
pretty quickly. Man. You know, I'm used to disappointment. I've
been married, I've had kids. You know, I disappointment. So
you get us man, Happy birthday, Trish's two pros and
a cup of Joe Here on Fox Sports Radio. Now,
(23:34):
Brady quickly, why is Michigan ranked ahead of Michigan State.
I know we talked about a little bit with Joe Clap,
but that is a mystery to a lot of people.
It's because they're trying to forewarn them. You know, It's
like setting a warning shot. You know, they're trying to
let the patch off and organ know like, hey, we're
gonna do this to you too. We haven't done it yet, bef.
We're going to do it to you because I mean,
(23:55):
besides the fact that the two teams played in Michigan
State one, so there's no reason that Michigan State shouldn't
be ranked ahead of Michigan even though they lost last week.
Doesn't matter. What is the difference anyway between what six
and seven whoever they're at? I mean, what's the difference?
What does it matter? Like if you put Michigan at seven,
(24:18):
does it make that game versus Penn State really any different? No,
it's the top ten matchup. Does it make the game
versus Ohio State any different if they're at seven? No? Like,
that's the way. That's what I don't get about whatever
the justification is. And look, I'll be real, I was
at that game and watching the game flow, in particular,
(24:38):
like the David Ojabo sack that was it was it
was ruled that Peyton Thorne, the quarterback, was down. Al
was kind of if he maybe that changes the momentum
in the game because Michigan would have scored. You know,
Thorne fumbled, they recovered the end zone. Who knows what
happens there. If those teams played ten times, Michigan probably
wins six of those. Like I kind of eve that right,
(25:00):
or if they played on neutral field, Michigan probably wins
right there, not in the East Lansing. But that wasn't
what happened. That's not the reality of it. So I
have no idea why it mattered so much of the
advanced analytics for the committee to do this, outside of
signaling to the Oregon in the Pack twelve and basically
every other team for that matter, like, hey, we're not
(25:20):
afraid to jump a team ahead of you just because
they played earlier in their season and you know, and
and someone won. Like we're telling you right now, our
criteria is as such, conference championships, strength, the schedule, and
head to head We're not prioritizing quite as much. And
so those are the things you have to start looking at.
They're already telling you now with their decisions and rationale.
(25:44):
It is two pros and a cup of Joe. Here
Fox Sport Trading Labar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas knocks coming
up next, there was a blockbuster trade on the table
in the NFL. We've got the details for you right
here on Fox Sports Radio. Nolla, Eddie, I'm gonna ask you,
you know, Fresno State, New Mexico. I mean, and listen,
I'm not trying to, you know, say that I have
(26:05):
any interest in this whatsoever. But do you feel like
Fresno State might be twenty four and a half points
better than New Mexico. Yeah? Yeah, I think I think so.
But you know it's funny about that. I would I
told you, we did the game last week and they
did not play well and lost an ugly game at
home to Boise, And I checked my email when I
(26:25):
got home and they were already sending out, Hey, tickets
on sale for New Mexico. And I'm just like, I'm
just like, not not the time, not the time right now. Yeah,
let me let me get over this a little bit
before you try and hit me with the tickets are
on sale for the next game, but they gotta gonna
(26:46):
business disrespected. I didn't feel disrespected that. It was like,
you know, like I'm still piste off, like you may
don't want to ask me for Yeah, you may don't
want to ask me for money right now for these
tickets where they need they need to have like a
different algorithm for that email blast after we lose. Why
(27:09):
do you give it exactly exactly? Listen, uh, Eddie, we
wish you, wish you luck there get after at least
you get an I S sandwich. We'll try tip sandwich
before they get. If it wasn't for that, the day
would have been lost. Save the day, try to save
the day be lost. Uh, it's two pros. That cup
of Joe here Fox Sports Radio coming up in we'll
(27:31):
call it twelve minutes from now. We are going to
have details on Russell Wilson's rehab process. Man Like, if
you thought you were active and you got after it,
you've got nothing on Russ. He's gonna make you feel awful?
Would you hear these details? But a joke, all right? Um,
that's twelve minutes from now. So, according to Jay Glazer,
(27:51):
the Dolphins were willing to trade three first round picks
and two second round picks for Deshaun Watson on the
condition that he settled the twenty two unresolved sexual assault
claims against him. So had he, um, you know, figured
some way to settle, those three ones and two twos
would have gone back to the Houston Texans, Uh, courtesy
(28:15):
the Miami Dolphins there, Brady, So yeah, and that would
that have been how many of their draft picks next year?
Would that have been for Miami? Um, I don't They've
got They've got a lot right next year. I mean
they've got a good amount. I don't know that that
be Oh, you mean for for and the UM, let
me see here. I don't know. I don't know that
(28:35):
we have the details on what years those would be.
UM that That's the only thing I'd be curious because
I feel like, and that's why I kind of threw
Philly out there as a potential suitor, is if you
could essentially take whatever you're gonna offer you're gonna offer Houston,
and you can just mortgage one year of draft picks
and then be able to get a star player like
(28:55):
Deshaun Watson, assuming that either things get settled and now
thing happens with the criminal case so they get dropped,
um or you know, everything's on the up and up,
you're not worried about the off the field issues. If
you could get that talent and only really have that
one year of a draft that ends up, you know,
kind of missing from you, that's not a bad deal.
(29:16):
Like I I think that's that would be one that
would kind of we'd probably look back on and say
that was a hell of a deal for Miami or Philly,
whatever team would have had the draft capital to do that.
But obviously it didn't come to fruition. Now doesn't mean
it won't, you know, once we get to um the
start of the new league year in March. And also
Glazer said, this is on Thursday Night Football on Fox,
(29:37):
that Deshaun Watson tried to settle it to try and
get the deal done. But again this goes back to
the nondisclosure. Yeah, and and Buzzby, you know, saying no,
no, no no, no, no, no, no no no. Now, we're
we're gonna We're gonna take this the long run. So,
I mean, at least the deal with there's two things
that could have been an issue, right, is it's not
(29:58):
a class action where any settlement amount of money is
gonna be the amount and it's distributed evenly a months
the different you know, plaintiffs. I guess in that case
you have twenty two separate suits, and so you might
have some who want this and some who want that,
and you know, so there's there's there's so it's it's
(30:18):
so complicated. That's the tough part about this is you know,
some way we might want more money than others, and
some might not want, you know, everything to be put
out on blasts or be put out publicly, and they,
you know, the NDAs thing can become a really tricky
thing moving forward, for how do Sean's trying to settle
all of this And that's crazy because they have the
right to feel that way, But you have the same
(30:39):
law you're handling it like, I don't know that I
would have wanted to do what they're doing. But again,
this now comes back to the idea of you have
this high profile lawyer that probably has promised to deliver
a high profile settlement or or payout from what's going
to take place, and he knows he can get it
(31:00):
if you look at the man's contracts, if he knows,
knowing the intimacy of all of the details that that
he knows um as the representation of of of his clients,
he knows he's got an idea of what this settlement
is going to look like for each one of the
people that he's representing. But you gotta believe that the
(31:22):
time pulling together all this information for all of these
people and being able to handle all of the questions
and all of the concerns and all of the approaches.
That's going to be time consuming. Like there's going to
be a lot of elements and moving parts to all
of this. Just so people understand soon. I heard the
(31:43):
staff the other day. I'm not sure how accurate is,
but I think like two percent of all civil cases
actually good at court and and they they actually like
go and you'll hear you know that the different litigation
on it. So that's the other thing is like this
is all to me about the timing of it. I
think there was a chance that they could have got
things settled and a trade would occur. Didn't happen. Now
(32:06):
we fast forward to February, and that's really the next
big day because of that deposition and if Deshaun Watson
doesn't want to have to go on the record, doesn't
want to have to say anything under oath, you know,
that's the next date to keep in mind for all
of this, where these get settled, it doesn't go to court.
None of this moves forward, and then Deshaun Watson and
the text and start working on that next team he'll
be playing for. It's a two pros and a cup

he has manners like that. I know he went to
Notre Dame, you know, god like us that went to

How to present yourself, man, it's awesome. Yeah, and Brady
(34:13):
Quinn beyond the big noon kickoff tomorrow from Waco. I mean,
you guys could keep paving this lay. Here's the reality
of it is. I'm not that nice of a human
being because I usually just presented an Eastern Standard time
and make everyone else do the math. So, hey, by
the way, you're gonna have like it was a chip
(34:34):
and Joanna Gaines h and you know, I think they're
big and Waco right from Yeah, fix her upper or whatever?
Are they gonna be on set tomorrow? Exactly? I cannot
divol that, all right, Yeah, you just gotta you just
gotta wonder are they gonna give one of your guests
(34:55):
a stiff arm like LaVar did on national television or
probably that is still one of the hotlights of my life.
By the way, So ladye, if you're out there and
you're listening to this show, thank you for giving me
the hotlight of my life that that outranked with the
birth of my kids, my wedding day, you name it.
(35:17):
That stiff was All right, it is time for something
we do on this show every single day called this
How could you not get to? These stories are the scraps?
And for that we turn it over to lead to Lap,
our executive producer, to find out what the hell we've
(35:39):
missed so far. Ley, you guys, Russell Wilson really wants
you to know how hard he's been rehabbing. He was
out to break records, apparently telling the Seattle Times that
he was working out nineteen to twenty hours a day
to get his finger back to hell. Oh my god,
there's a lot of that's a lot of finger work
or what would you call what you call it? I mean,
you can't say fingering, because that's not exactly what it be.
(36:01):
It's like exercise that's called that's called manly private time
is what it's called. I like I don't on your
finger though, Like it's not like it's like a knee
and ankle, a shoulder, it's your middle finger. Like I
(36:21):
just I mean, by the way, what you're trying to
repair with mallet finger is the extensors. So in reality,
not about conditioning the hand, well, it would be conditioning you.
One of the exercise would be like giving people the
middle finger, like extending to straighten your finger and giving
the middle finger. So he's just flicking people off for
(36:41):
nineteen hours. I mean, I just that's the point, Like
there's no there's no cardio vascular type of like so
to say I'm rehabbing my fingers, Like if you really
stop and think about it, he could have said twenty
four hours. Like I'm a spooner. I love to spoon,
So for the amount of time that I'm unconscious to myself,
(37:03):
my hand is still at work while I'm sleep, you
know what I mean, Like whether I'm I'm touching my spouse,
whether I'm touching a pillow, whatever it is that I'm
I'm I'm using, I'm using my hands door out So
he basically gave you and I'm I'm what is it,
I'm immune I'm I'm immunized. He's giving you, he's giving
(37:27):
you a obvious answer, but it's not so obvious, right.
It's like we use our hands all day. Like, think
about when you don't use your hands during the course
of the day. It's just we're always using our hands.
It's just so dumb. I don't. I don't. I don't understand,
Like why the need to constantly divulge every like I'm
(37:47):
doing this irritates you. Jonas does it because he knows
it irritates you. It's like the people that that post
crap on social media about them working out. It's like, dude,
I don't need to see you. Just go work out.
Shut up. I don't need to see I don't. I
don't want to hear about how long you worked out for.
I don't want to hear about how hard you're rehabing.
(38:08):
Just stop. What are we doing here? I honestly believe this.
I think there's a lot of professional athletes out there, stars,
et cetera, whatever you want to call them, that feel
like if they don't put this content out there, if
they don't make it known, that they will be forgotten.
Like that the only way they stay relevant are they
stay in the limelight, is to continually self produce this
(38:31):
sort of stuff in order to keep the attention or
have people have the ability to look back on their
great feats or what they did during that period of
time when they were, you know, in their fifteen minutes
of fame. If you will, I just what else we
got guys Michigan. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nestle has issued
(38:52):
an official apology after she got too sick and drunk
at the Michigan Michigan State game, where she was seeing
wheeled out in a wheelchair and puking, and she said
she had too bloody Mary's on an empty stomach. That's
a line a half. Just own it, too, bloody Mary's
on an empty stomach and you get wheeled out in
(39:12):
a wheelchair. Give me a break, Yeah, what was in
the bloody mary gas? Come on, man, just own it? Like,
do you know what? Would have gave her more votes
and more supporters if you said, you know what, I
was having a hell of a time at one of
the most historic Paul bunyan Uh rivalries that exist in
(39:35):
all of sports. And you know what, I got carried
away and everybody has been like, oh my gosh, I
love her. I love her. I think I saw her,
so I had I had to leave early. I had
to leave early. Take your handicapped spot. We were we
were being I was being taken with one of our
proachers out early because of our flight, and I swear
(39:56):
to you, we went by and there was like a
bunch of people around a woman who was in a
wheelchair and it looked like she wasn't doing well and
they were trying to figure out to get her out body.
By the way, it isn't a bloody Mary kind of
considered a little bit of breakfast because yeah, it's like soup,
so you can't say it was an empty stomach. You
were drinking soup with alcohol and maybe beer. Yeah, what
(40:18):
a lie? Jesus, what you do see Bigfoot on the
way out to Just to have told the truth, man,

A star was born in the NFL. We will get
into it coming up here in just a couple of
moments from now. It's Two Pros Are and a Cup
(00:41):
of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio. It's LaVar Arrington,
It's Brady Quinn, It's Jonas Knox with you here on
fs ARE. It's a football Friday. You can hang out
with us on the I Heart Radio app. You can
find us on hundreds of Fox Sports Radio affiliates soever are. Yeah,
it is Friday. Damn right, I suppose what else was?
It's not football season, but still a football Friday break down,
(01:05):
an NBA game, some fight between the Jazz and the Pacers.
Last night come on, get out of here with that?
Was that? Wasn't that? Two nights ago? Was the last?
Last night Rudy Gobert and um from Texas. No, no, no,
The Rudy Gobert joint was funny. Is all get out man? Like?
(01:25):
You know what I love about moments like that is
it's like it's like in boxing matches, right, you will
see guys box and they go the entire round and
then something happens right after the bell and then you'll
see they got to hold them back and get them
back to the corner. It's like you just had all
these minutes the whooper's ass and you didn't do anything,
(01:48):
and now somebody's got to hold you back from getting
to him. Now, Like Rudy, you grabbed the man shorts.
He didn't like it, He got no call. He roughs
you with the elbow. If you are going to retaliate,
I'm sorry. Maybe I sound maybe barbaric, Maybe I sound
like what what you would call a typical former linebacker,
(02:13):
uh thumper. You gotta whoop his ass. If you're going
to go back at him, body slam him, supplex him,
put one into it like like like straight you know,
rock him in his in his stomach. I ain't gonna say,
punch him in the face or anything like that, but well,
I'm not gonna do I'm not gonna go that far.
But you definitely could have punched him in the stomach
(02:36):
if you didn't think that you were gonna be strong
enough to get the man down. But to go from
it looking like straight beef and straight drama to waltzing
on the NBA court, and then the moment they break
y'all up, it's like, hold me back from him, hold
me back, I'm about the lace him up, hold me back,
don't let me go, because if you let me go,
(02:56):
he's in trouble. Like no, he's not seen. And that's
why Brady made the point a day or two ago
when he said that darn Darren Williams. Yeah, and uh
and Frank or fight. I mean a lot is on
the line here. You got nbavior's NFL with the Darren
Williams and fighters right there. Man, all Frank Gore needs
(03:16):
to do is just tug on Darren Williams shorts and
it's going to create this uproar. Is that? I mean,
that's essentially how Gobert and Miles Turner got into the fight,
right yeah, yeah's faces. I mean if he just walks
over fourth fight tugs on the shorts, it's on like that,
that's all. I mean. Brady tugs on my shorts all
the time. I just tell me, man, I'm married. I've
(03:38):
ever tugged your short time anyway. Um look, look, here's
the thing. Here's the thing, right said terrorists that we're
not going. Hey, look man, this fight with with Williams
and Gore, it's like you're now the the takes have
(04:02):
go way further up because now I'm sitting there at
like Nate Nate Pete and I'm like, come on, man,
like or Nate Robbins, excuse me, like you got like
I understand why basketball players get knocked out. Man, y'all
y'all are some soft serve. He's a dope. I'm sorry
(04:28):
to do it. I was a basketball player at one point.
Maybe that's why I had to go to football because
I was I was okay with fouling out because I
was I was, you know, I just wasn't and I
did punch somebody in the face after a game at
one point two. By the way, I would just say this,
I let's just say this. That is something you always
(04:49):
notice as a football player going and playing basketball. I
grew up playing all three sports. But like you tend
to play more physical, like I box you out like
you're not gonna get a rebound. Defensively, people get like
upset and fired up on hand checking stuff, like they
don't want to be touched. They won't want to be bothered.
It's like, well, don't try to drive to the lane,
(05:11):
like you put your shoulder down and you're gonna try
to drive into me. I'm not gonna move man, Like,
especially in a pickup game where no one's calling charges, like,
don't initiate contact and act like there's not gonna be
contact coming back your way. No one, no one, just
no official or ref out here calling a charge like that.
I've never under Did you ever play at the Wreck
(05:33):
building against your other teammates on the football team. Oh yeah,
I mean we we had college. We used to play.
We had what I'm saying in college. Yeah, we used
to always fight. I got to a fight almost every
time we played at Directory. Like, man, don't put listen,
don't play against the ball. Football players couldn't play with
(05:56):
anyone else because we played so rough, Like if you're
going to the hoop, you're going to the like no
one's calling fouls. You go up to try to dunk it.
Guess what, try dunk on someone. Well, you're gonna get hit,
but you better make sure you jump high enough, like
you better make sure you finish the dunk, otherwise you're
coming down the wrong By the way, how do you
think it went for the first guy who tried Julius
(06:16):
Peppers on a basketball floor? Julius Peppers. I mean, come on,
at some point, somebody must have thought, like, who's this guy.
I'm better I've seen that firsthand. We would train out
in Arizona and there was a like a half core
basketball court, and I was just like, this dude, I
would never ever play a pick up game against only
(06:40):
with and even then I'm passing him the ball like
I'm not, I'm not doing anything because I'm just gonna
keep dribbling pass. We we think, all, right, basketball player
turn football player tight ends. You know, Tony Gonzalez, Jimmy Graham,
those guys. But Julius Peppers was a monster. Peppers was
one football player play basketball. Be clear, those other guys
(07:02):
your name and those were basketball players that played football
and and adapted and adjusted to football. Julius Peppers is
a killer dog. Like you don't. That's not the type
of smoke that you would want to run up on
and get involved in. Like you know what. I can
remember before he came out, he was still in school
and him and Ryan Sims came to my my home
(07:23):
one time, um for a cookout that I had, which
was an epic, amazing cook out. By the way, what
happened it was everything you know. Sons of b stole
my my CD collection though that was the only thing
that happened at that party that I didn't like was
after everybody cleared out my my CD collection, which took
me literally like two years to to accumulate um what
(07:48):
I did, and it was such an amazing collection. But anyway,
the point is is that was the first time I
had met Julius Peppers in person. Like he came through.
He wanted to come hang out, talk to me, you learn,
learn about what what it was gonna be like. So
he's at the crib, we're hanging out and when he
walked in the door, just the first thing I thought
to myself was he scares me, and not not because
(08:14):
he was a scary person, like super dope dude, super
cool dude, real laid back, real chill. But when you
start to look at him, like, yeah, I looked at him,
not like how I looked at Prince. It was different
when I looked at when I looked at Julius Peppers,
I was like, like, you know, because he played we
played similar position. I mean, he was at d N,
(08:35):
but I also played d N. I was a linebacker,
but I also played d N at times. And I'm
looking at him and I'm like at the time, like
a big dude. I'm sitting there thinking like I'm a
big dude. And he came walking in and he dwarfed me,
and and not only did he make me look small,
but then when you look at like the details of
like his his his veins and and how like like
(08:58):
you know, his forearm looked. Then then his shoulder went out,
like his shoulder blades was out there, like you mess
with him. If you mess with him, you're looking for
a paycheck or or a casket one or the two.
You're not looking. That's not a sensible decision. By the way,
he's fifth all time and sacks Julius Peppers. Uh, he's
(09:21):
got the first time you're saying three d pounders didn't
even want to deal with him on the football field day, Like,
just go ahead and you know the quarterback. I don't
want none of that. Forget that man, Um all right? So,
so speaking of stars, um, how do we feel about
Robert Hunt, the offensive lineman for the Miami Dolphins, who,
(09:41):
for some reason, I thought, you know what, maybe that
maybe that screen pass was to me? And then um,
I guess okay, but let me ask you this, because
it's amazing athleticism to see the way and just knowing
where the end zone was and still stretching it. He
probably thought midway through the run, all right, I shouldn't
(10:02):
have this ball. This is a penalty. But since I'm here,
why don't I try and at least make it look
like a touchdown? Seeing how he handled the football, They're
going to find a package for him offensively, right, I mean,
good man. I actually already think, um they do use
him as like an extra tight end from time to time. Um,
(10:23):
So I do think they've got something like that already
in their system. But yeah, now maybe you're thinking more
like the fridge, you know, put him in the backfield,
let him run the football in there with like a
jumbo running backpackage, because let's not forget this is not
a good team of running the football that the Dolphins
didn't really run the football well last night. Robert Hunt
(10:43):
maybe transitioning now to the goal line back for the
Dolphins moving forward. He looked athletic, man, bro He looked
like a lobster trying to hold that football. He wanted it.
See how big his his hands and his fanted that
ball away. It got away. It was like he was
trying to gather up a golf ball. Man. That was crazy, man.
(11:06):
But he was explosive in his movements, I'll tell you that.
And that's just one of those things where you say,
people don't realize how athletic everybody is in the league.
It's like, oh, he's not athletic, or he's not this,
or he's not that. Hey listen, It's like in basketball,
like you don't realize how far that NBA three point
(11:26):
you know line is until you get out there on
the court and it's like, man, like, how do you
even see well enough to shoot the ball through that that?
You know, through the rim? Well, that's like football. You
don't realize how fast the whole thing is. You if
you're ever fortunate enough to stand on the sideline and
watch a game from the sideline, and how fast all
(11:48):
of them are moving. It's it's amazing to see that.
It is such an amazing thing to watch those those
guys move the way that they do. I mean, that's
probably why I love still being a part of the game.
It's the most impressive thing I think about that as
far as football, Like, like in the NFL, the most
impressive thing is seeing three d pound men move the
(12:12):
way they do athletically everything the way they do. Uh.
And honestly, it was like the first thing I think
I noticed, Like as you go up through the ranks,
it's it's not the speed like fast as fast you
see small guys or bigger guys who are pretty fast.
It's the way the big guys and the type of
athletes that they are, like how flexible, how agile they are.
(12:34):
You just don't you don't see that, Like you walk
around the world, you don't see big people like that,
and when you do, they definitely aren't moving like these
guys do. So to your point, man, that is. It's
one of the more impressive things. Man. It's like it
kind of be like it's kind of like when you're
just gonna say, like when you go to the zoo
you see massive animals and you're like you're just in
(12:56):
awe of like how massive and big they are. It's
kind of like that, like like just to give people
like an idea in their head, like when you're looking
at a rhino or you're looking at an elephant, you're like,
oh my god, that's a big creature. That's how you
feel going into the NFL. You see somebody's living in
the line and you're like, that's a massive creature. And Bro,
they move like a panther. Like that's crazy. Yeah, because
(13:21):
they moved slow, Like like I tell you, I'd be
seeing these beers around the crib man, and they moved
so slow. But they walk away slow, they look at
you slow. Everything is just slow and athargic. But they
can really move. When they need to move, they move.
And that's the craziest thing about it, man. Bro. When
(13:44):
we were in when we were in Iowa and I
saw our lineman, I was like goo, googla, moogla. Look,
and then I was on the sideline. Why, I said,
I will come down to come warm up. And then
and then the lineman got closer and closer and closer,
(14:08):
and I was like, holy bleep. And I think I
think that they go out they can't hear me. I
think bigger than when we play, because I feel like
they're everyone's bigger. Man, I think they're bigger. They didn't
look they didn't look like they were. They were avatars, man,
they weren't. They were not of this planet. Like, I
(14:29):
don't think I recall our guy now, Courtney Brown was
an avatar, Like, I ain't gonna lie about that. Courtney
was an avatar. But these linemen were ginormous, man, they
were general and I mean they weren't fat. It wasn't
like ginormously like these big fat boys. I mean they
were like bigger versions of yoked up dudes. Like I
(14:50):
don't know, man, it's it kind of scares me a
little bit. Like now, I asked myself, like do you
ever ask yourself like, how the hell did I fixed
my mind to be on the field with them? Uh? No,
not now, I'll tell you that. Not now some smoke. No,
(15:13):
it's two pros and a cup of Joe's LaVar Arrington,
Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox of the here on Fox Sports Radio.
You can hang out with us as always on the
I Heart Radio app. So coming up next, Um, there
was a decision made in the world of football this week.
It's very puzzling, but it does impact this weekend for
two members of this show. We will get into that
(15:35):
for you next year on Fox Sports Radio. Be sure
to catch live editions of Two Pros and a Cup
of Joe with Brady Quinn, LaVar Arrington and Jonas Knox
weekdays at six am Easter three am Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio. It's Two Pros
and a Cup of Joe here Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington,
(15:55):
Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox here on FS are coming up
in uh less than a minutes from now. There's a
report out there about a potential blockbuster trade that nearly
got done in the NFL. We will have that for
you here less than ten minutes from now on Fox
Sports Radio and and also later on this hour, the
(16:15):
dreaded Double T s here We've got details details on
Russell Wilson's rehab process. This is a good video. It
is man, you talk about going above and beyond man,
that Russell Wilson is something else man, just just a
special guy through and through. So that would be happening
(16:36):
later this sid that music that brought us in sounded
like that Rocky and and and it sounds like, you know,
for Russell Wilson, he's looking to be the Rocky of
NFL football. Yeah, I mean, listen, who wouldn't want to
be the Rocky of of NFL football. I mean, he
doesn't want to lose pace on getting that m VP
Award for the first time. I think I've gotten a vote.
(17:01):
He has yet to jump on that board. Yeah, I
don't think he's ever gotten a vote. It's crazy to
me only because he has played at a really really
high level throughout his career, especially in spurts or or
like half a season. I mean played at a really
high level. You do have to ask yourself for wonder
if he was like with the Rams with Sean McVeigh
(17:24):
and that system, or Bruce Arians the way he likes
to air it out Sean Payton, I mean, wouldn't you
have won one by now? Is it fair to say that?
Let me let me reverse, Let me reverse float at
if Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady were in Seattle, what
(17:44):
they have gotten an m v P award during the
course of their career. I don't know. I mean that
it's so it's such a hard style on which Pete
Carroll wants to play. It's all about the ball, defense,
run the football. He doesn't like to air it out.
I feel like Pete Carroll feels uncomfortable when they're throwing
the football too much. And so it's hard to say
(18:06):
that any quarterback is going to put up the statistical
numbers regardless of who they are, except Lamar maybe because
he runs Yeah because yeah, good point, great point besides him,
So so they wentn't have gotten m vps then. So
so then Russell Wilson's complaints about him being the greatest
and he's unlimited, Um, it kind of is true based
(18:27):
off of the schematics that he's playing in. The toughest
thing about that, though, is you know when when Russell
first got into the league, that's when they had the
best team. That's when the legion of Boom was rolling.
And so usually what coincides with the m v P
as your team has to be in it you have
to be in the hunt for one of the top
teams in the NFL, like we There's been instances of
(18:49):
players who have had finotal seasons. Remember David Johnson had
like that over two thousand scrimmage yard. It was unbelievable season,
right and it filled by the wayside because the Cardinals
were having a bad season. You know, no one even
no one really even talked about it. Yet he was
arguably the best player in the NFL that year. So
that's usually how it works. It's kind of like the Heisman.
(19:10):
You know, we just talked about claud about that, like
it might go to Bryce Young or c J. Stroud,
and you know, are they deserving of it? I mean,
I think Young is. I think he's incredible. But you know,
it also has to do with the fact that their
team's planning for potentially in national championship, Like Kenny Pickett
probably should win it or could win it, but you know,
Pitt's not playing for that national championship. At least it
(19:31):
doesn't look like that's gonna be the case. You mentioned
talking to Joel Clatt. We did talk to Joel Klatt,
you know, who usually has something, uh, he would like
to say about the college football playoff ranking. Is not
a big fan of the process in general. Um, now
Michigan is actually on the road. They're gonna be playing
(19:52):
gud who's that team that they're playing. That's right, that's right. Yeah, yeah,
uh uh uh uh oh yeah yeah. There it is
(20:35):
the pride and joy of the Nitney lion sticks Arrington
serenading you on a Friday. But I love it, man, Like,
that's what makes part of college football what it is like,
the pageantry, the bands, the fight songs and all that.
I have this argument with Pete Prisco, and he's an
Arizona State a lum, and I always exactly that's why
(20:58):
I said him, I go, you didn't go to a
school with a good football program. You don't have a
good fight song, Like there's nothing for you to be
like proud of or excited about. And so that's why
he doesn't understand anytime you talk about the atmosphere in
college being better than that in the NFL. It's more corporate,
little more sterile. But that I mean, I didn't think
(21:20):
about this. LaVar is a grown ass man. He's up
here singing. He's up there singing that. So that's how
much it means to him. Right, and he's nude. He's nude,
that's right. He robed when that came on, and he
does everything. I had like the Valcro outfit on it,
and it immediately what you were, like a Steven Seagal.
(21:45):
It's a regular outfit. It's just it's just got Valcro. Right.
I'm always ready for a Penn State song to come
on naked no better where I am at. Do you
have a g I could picture you wearing? Would like,
you know, since I tell people I'm not a coach,
I'm a since I don't train and teach football, I
(22:08):
train and I teach masters. I teach samurai. So do
you have a gear? A few different uh uh wardrobes
attires that would would fall in line with something like that.
I have hoodies like that, in fact, I think you've
In fact, I had on a shirt a gee like uh,
(22:31):
you know, one of those type combat outfit church yesterday, Jonas.
I don't know if you notice that. Listen, I'm too
busy looking into your eyes. I can't stay I get it,
by the way, with the way that your day started yesterday,
I wasn't trying to judge you on your attire. I
didn't want to go down that. Did you see the
(22:53):
eyes when I came into that that studio. I've known
the bar about three months. I knew he was piste off.
I can tell I just knew, uh that he was
pissed off about what was happening. Now, but at least
you know, I don't lose control. Yeah, I mean some
people lose control when they're as upset as I was
at that moment. Now, you was, I shake stuff off
(23:13):
pretty quickly. Man. You know, I'm used to disappointment. I've
been married, I've had kids. You know, I disappointment. So
you get us man, Happy birthday, Trish's two pros and
a cup of Joe Here on Fox Sports Radio. Now,
(23:34):
Brady quickly, why is Michigan ranked ahead of Michigan State.
I know we talked about a little bit with Joe Clap,
but that is a mystery to a lot of people.
It's because they're trying to forewarn them. You know, It's
like setting a warning shot. You know, they're trying to
let the patch off and organ know like, hey, we're
gonna do this to you too. We haven't done it yet, bef.
We're going to do it to you because I mean,
(23:55):
besides the fact that the two teams played in Michigan
State one, so there's no reason that Michigan State shouldn't
be ranked ahead of Michigan even though they lost last week.
Doesn't matter. What is the difference anyway between what six
and seven whoever they're at? I mean, what's the difference?
What does it matter? Like if you put Michigan at seven,
(24:18):
does it make that game versus Penn State really any different? No,
it's the top ten matchup. Does it make the game
versus Ohio State any different if they're at seven? No? Like,
that's the way. That's what I don't get about whatever
the justification is. And look, I'll be real, I was
at that game and watching the game flow, in particular,
(24:38):
like the David Ojabo sack that was it was it
was ruled that Peyton Thorne, the quarterback, was down. Al
was kind of if he maybe that changes the momentum
in the game because Michigan would have scored. You know,
Thorne fumbled, they recovered the end zone. Who knows what
happens there. If those teams played ten times, Michigan probably
wins six of those. Like I kind of eve that right,
(25:00):
or if they played on neutral field, Michigan probably wins
right there, not in the East Lansing. But that wasn't
what happened. That's not the reality of it. So I
have no idea why it mattered so much of the
advanced analytics for the committee to do this, outside of
signaling to the Oregon in the Pack twelve and basically
every other team for that matter, like, hey, we're not
(25:20):
afraid to jump a team ahead of you just because
they played earlier in their season and you know, and
and someone won. Like we're telling you right now, our
criteria is as such, conference championships, strength, the schedule, and
head to head We're not prioritizing quite as much. And
so those are the things you have to start looking at.
They're already telling you now with their decisions and rationale.
(25:44):
It is two pros and a cup of Joe. Here
Fox Sport Trading Labar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas knocks coming
up next, there was a blockbuster trade on the table
in the NFL. We've got the details for you right
here on Fox Sports Radio. Nolla, Eddie, I'm gonna ask you,
you know, Fresno State, New Mexico. I mean, and listen,
I'm not trying to, you know, say that I have
(26:05):
any interest in this whatsoever. But do you feel like
Fresno State might be twenty four and a half points
better than New Mexico. Yeah? Yeah, I think I think so.
But you know it's funny about that. I would I
told you, we did the game last week and they
did not play well and lost an ugly game at
home to Boise, And I checked my email when I
(26:25):
got home and they were already sending out, Hey, tickets
on sale for New Mexico. And I'm just like, I'm
just like, not not the time, not the time right now. Yeah,
let me let me get over this a little bit
before you try and hit me with the tickets are
on sale for the next game, but they gotta gonna
(26:46):
business disrespected. I didn't feel disrespected that. It was like,
you know, like I'm still piste off, like you may
don't want to ask me for Yeah, you may don't
want to ask me for money right now for these
tickets where they need they need to have like a
different algorithm for that email blast after we lose. Why
(27:09):
do you give it exactly exactly? Listen, uh, Eddie, we
wish you, wish you luck there get after at least
you get an I S sandwich. We'll try tip sandwich
before they get. If it wasn't for that, the day
would have been lost. Save the day, try to save
the day be lost. Uh, it's two pros. That cup
of Joe here Fox Sports Radio coming up in we'll
(27:31):
call it twelve minutes from now. We are going to
have details on Russell Wilson's rehab process. Man Like, if
you thought you were active and you got after it,
you've got nothing on Russ. He's gonna make you feel awful?
Would you hear these details? But a joke, all right? Um,
that's twelve minutes from now. So, according to Jay Glazer,
(27:51):
the Dolphins were willing to trade three first round picks
and two second round picks for Deshaun Watson on the
condition that he settled the twenty two unresolved sexual assault
claims against him. So had he, um, you know, figured
some way to settle, those three ones and two twos
would have gone back to the Houston Texans, Uh, courtesy
(28:15):
the Miami Dolphins there, Brady, So yeah, and that would
that have been how many of their draft picks next year?
Would that have been for Miami? Um, I don't They've
got They've got a lot right next year. I mean
they've got a good amount. I don't know that that
be Oh, you mean for for and the UM, let
me see here. I don't know. I don't know that
(28:35):
we have the details on what years those would be.
UM that That's the only thing I'd be curious because
I feel like, and that's why I kind of threw
Philly out there as a potential suitor, is if you
could essentially take whatever you're gonna offer you're gonna offer Houston,
and you can just mortgage one year of draft picks
and then be able to get a star player like
(28:55):
Deshaun Watson, assuming that either things get settled and now
thing happens with the criminal case so they get dropped,
um or you know, everything's on the up and up,
you're not worried about the off the field issues. If
you could get that talent and only really have that
one year of a draft that ends up, you know,
kind of missing from you, that's not a bad deal.
(29:16):
Like I I think that's that would be one that
would kind of we'd probably look back on and say
that was a hell of a deal for Miami or Philly,
whatever team would have had the draft capital to do that.
But obviously it didn't come to fruition. Now doesn't mean
it won't, you know, once we get to um the
start of the new league year in March. And also
Glazer said, this is on Thursday Night Football on Fox,
(29:37):
that Deshaun Watson tried to settle it to try and
get the deal done. But again this goes back to
the nondisclosure. Yeah, and and Buzzby, you know, saying no,
no, no no, no, no, no, no no no. Now, we're
we're gonna We're gonna take this the long run. So,
I mean, at least the deal with there's two things
that could have been an issue, right, is it's not
(29:58):
a class action where any settlement amount of money is
gonna be the amount and it's distributed evenly a months
the different you know, plaintiffs. I guess in that case
you have twenty two separate suits, and so you might
have some who want this and some who want that,
and you know, so there's there's there's so it's it's
(30:18):
so complicated. That's the tough part about this is you know,
some way we might want more money than others, and
some might not want, you know, everything to be put
out on blasts or be put out publicly, and they,
you know, the NDAs thing can become a really tricky
thing moving forward, for how do Sean's trying to settle
all of this And that's crazy because they have the
right to feel that way, But you have the same
(30:39):
law you're handling it like, I don't know that I
would have wanted to do what they're doing. But again,
this now comes back to the idea of you have
this high profile lawyer that probably has promised to deliver
a high profile settlement or or payout from what's going
to take place, and he knows he can get it
(31:00):
if you look at the man's contracts, if he knows,
knowing the intimacy of all of the details that that
he knows um as the representation of of of his clients,
he knows he's got an idea of what this settlement
is going to look like for each one of the
people that he's representing. But you gotta believe that the
(31:22):
time pulling together all this information for all of these
people and being able to handle all of the questions
and all of the concerns and all of the approaches.
That's going to be time consuming. Like there's going to
be a lot of elements and moving parts to all
of this. Just so people understand soon. I heard the
(31:43):
staff the other day. I'm not sure how accurate is,
but I think like two percent of all civil cases
actually good at court and and they they actually like
go and you'll hear you know that the different litigation
on it. So that's the other thing is like this
is all to me about the timing of it. I
think there was a chance that they could have got
things settled and a trade would occur. Didn't happen. Now
(32:06):
we fast forward to February, and that's really the next
big day because of that deposition and if Deshaun Watson
doesn't want to have to go on the record, doesn't
want to have to say anything under oath, you know,
that's the next date to keep in mind for all
of this, where these get settled, it doesn't go to court.
None of this moves forward, and then Deshaun Watson and
the text and start working on that next team he'll
be playing for. It's a two pros and a cup
(32:27):

he has manners like that. I know he went to

blue blood universities. We understand the manners of all of this.
How to present yourself, man, it's awesome. Yeah, and Brady
(34:13):
Quinn beyond the big noon kickoff tomorrow from Waco. I mean,
you guys could keep paving this lay. Here's the reality
of it is. I'm not that nice of a human
being because I usually just presented an Eastern Standard time
and make everyone else do the math. So, hey, by
the way, you're gonna have like it was a chip
(34:34):
and Joanna Gaines h and you know, I think they're
big and Waco right from Yeah, fix her upper or whatever?
Are they gonna be on set tomorrow? Exactly? I cannot
divol that, all right, Yeah, you just gotta you just
gotta wonder are they gonna give one of your guests
(34:55):
a stiff arm like LaVar did on national television or
probably that is still one of the hotlights of my life.
By the way, So ladye, if you're out there and
you're listening to this show, thank you for giving me
the hotlight of my life that that outranked with the
birth of my kids, my wedding day, you name it.
(35:17):
That stiff was All right, it is time for something
we do on this show every single day called this
How could you not get to? These stories are the scraps?
And for that we turn it over to lead to Lap,
our executive producer, to find out what the hell we've
(35:39):
missed so far. Ley, you guys, Russell Wilson really wants
you to know how hard he's been rehabbing. He was
out to break records, apparently telling the Seattle Times that
he was working out nineteen to twenty hours a day
to get his finger back to hell. Oh my god,
there's a lot of that's a lot of finger work
or what would you call what you call it? I mean,
you can't say fingering, because that's not exactly what it be.
(36:01):
It's like exercise that's called that's called manly private time
is what it's called. I like I don't on your
finger though, Like it's not like it's like a knee
and ankle, a shoulder, it's your middle finger. Like I
(36:21):
just I mean, by the way, what you're trying to
repair with mallet finger is the extensors. So in reality,
not about conditioning the hand, well, it would be conditioning you.
One of the exercise would be like giving people the
middle finger, like extending to straighten your finger and giving
the middle finger. So he's just flicking people off for
(36:41):
nineteen hours. I mean, I just that's the point, Like
there's no there's no cardio vascular type of like so
to say I'm rehabbing my fingers, Like if you really
stop and think about it, he could have said twenty
four hours. Like I'm a spooner. I love to spoon,
So for the amount of time that I'm unconscious to myself,
(37:03):
my hand is still at work while I'm sleep, you
know what I mean, Like whether I'm I'm touching my spouse,
whether I'm touching a pillow, whatever it is that I'm
I'm I'm using, I'm using my hands door out So
he basically gave you and I'm I'm what is it,
I'm immune I'm I'm immunized. He's giving you, he's giving
(37:27):
you a obvious answer, but it's not so obvious, right.
It's like we use our hands all day. Like, think
about when you don't use your hands during the course
of the day. It's just we're always using our hands.
It's just so dumb. I don't. I don't. I don't understand,
Like why the need to constantly divulge every like I'm
(37:47):
doing this irritates you. Jonas does it because he knows
it irritates you. It's like the people that that post
crap on social media about them working out. It's like, dude,
I don't need to see you. Just go work out.
Shut up. I don't need to see I don't. I
don't want to hear about how long you worked out for.
I don't want to hear about how hard you're rehabing.
(38:08):
Just stop. What are we doing here? I honestly believe this.
I think there's a lot of professional athletes out there, stars,
et cetera, whatever you want to call them, that feel
like if they don't put this content out there, if
they don't make it known, that they will be forgotten.
Like that the only way they stay relevant are they
stay in the limelight, is to continually self produce this
(38:31):
sort of stuff in order to keep the attention or
have people have the ability to look back on their
great feats or what they did during that period of
time when they were, you know, in their fifteen minutes
of fame. If you will, I just what else we
got guys Michigan. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nestle has issued
(38:52):
an official apology after she got too sick and drunk
at the Michigan Michigan State game, where she was seeing
wheeled out in a wheelchair and puking, and she said
she had too bloody Mary's on an empty stomach. That's
a line a half. Just own it, too, bloody Mary's
on an empty stomach and you get wheeled out in
(39:12):
a wheelchair. Give me a break, Yeah, what was in
the bloody mary gas? Come on, man, just own it? Like,
do you know what? Would have gave her more votes
and more supporters if you said, you know what, I
was having a hell of a time at one of
the most historic Paul bunyan Uh rivalries that exist in
(39:35):
all of sports. And you know what, I got carried
away and everybody has been like, oh my gosh, I
love her. I love her. I think I saw her,
so I had I had to leave early. I had
to leave early. Take your handicapped spot. We were we
were being I was being taken with one of our
proachers out early because of our flight, and I swear
(39:56):
to you, we went by and there was like a
bunch of people around a woman who was in a
wheelchair and it looked like she wasn't doing well and
they were trying to figure out to get her out body.
By the way, it isn't a bloody Mary kind of
considered a little bit of breakfast because yeah, it's like soup,
so you can't say it was an empty stomach. You
were drinking soup with alcohol and maybe beer. Yeah, what
(40:18):
a lie? Jesus, what you do see Bigfoot on the
way out to Just to have told the truth, man,
I got faded. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports
