lot of cool things to talk about. Mainly, the big
thing is that I'm back. We're gonna be doing this
podcast again. We're all gonna talk about the Thunder winning
the championships, the Houston Rockets made a big move of
getting Kevin Durant. Does that mean ething for them going forward?

(00:50):
And we'll wrap things up talk a little bit about
the Schadurda Sanders conundrum and some of my thoughts behind it.
So we appreciate y'all pulling up, and also we'll talk
a little bit about the Thunder going before. So hit
us up on the Unfair Fan line four three zero,
nine zero one and nine zero six and let us
know what you think of the show. Give us your

give you some feedback. You might end up on the

(01:11):
show one day, so hit us up four three zero
nine zero one one nine six. Oh man, gotta say,
it feels good to try to bring this back again.
I've been trying to figure out the schedule and the
way of doing this for a while. This one's coming

(01:31):
out a little bit later than it normally would. We'll
probably start going back to a Tuesday and Friday schedule
that we used to do. Really miss those days of
being able to drop this podcast for you also, that
is the plan, and so I'm putting this together a
little bit earlier and want you guys have something here
in the evening to be able to check out and
just remind you of us doing this. Unfair sports man,

(01:53):
I miss doing my full the full plethora of professionals
sorts and college sports and everything or whatnot like that.
It's one of the things I missed the most. Yeah,
I saw a fly trying to fly in front of
my face. But we're gonna get back to it. We're
gonna bring back the show and everything. So of course
today's show, we've got a lot of things to talk about.

(02:14):
We got to talk about the Thunder winning the winning
the NBA Finals. We're gonna talk about the Thunder dynasty,
what that looks like going forward, Houston Rockets making that
Kevin Durant trade on Finals Day, which is kind of
wild to me. I don't think the NFL would have
even allowed that. And then we'll wrap things up, and
I talked about the Shador Sanders situation and how you

(02:37):
may have cost himself QB one but we'll see. But first, Thunder,
as y'all all know, I'm a massive Thunder fan, had
to rock my champ shirt, but I've gotten my final
shirt coming in the mail because I'm excited, man, the
Thunder did something that I have been waiting for them
to do my entire life of fandom with them working
for the organization and all of that, the Thunder are

(02:59):
now champions. And so one thing that excites your boy
about this is this is the Thunder actually have an
opportunity to continue to go forward with being one of
the future dynasties out there, mainly because one the team
is very young, probably the youngest. It's the second youngest

(03:19):
champion in NBA history. I believe the Portland Trail players
as back in the late seventies were younger than them.
And for the Thunder, when you look at this from FanDuel,
you've got players all under contract up until twenty twenty seven,
from SGA to Isaiah Hartstein, you've got Doord Caruso, Jay Dubb,

(03:44):
you know Chet, which we all know that Chet and
Jay Daub will get their extensions because they're value members
of this organization and the way that they're doing things.
But we'll talk dynasty in a moment, but I want
to talk about this gang. Thunder in a way lucked out.
They were playing very sloppy ball. They weren't really playing

(04:07):
the thunder basketball that were used to to start, and
then Tire's Halliburton gets hurt, So shout out to the
Indiana Pacers. They bawled out, they were hooping. That was
a great series just overall, and they exceeded expectations two

(04:28):
years in a row. Like I mean, coming in at
fifty and thirty two. They were the fourth seed. They
weren't supposed to go this far. Then Jason Tatum gets hurt,
which leads to them having the opportunity to do they
ran through and be able to make it to the
finals because everybody expected Boston to go with them being
able to do what they did against New York and everything,
kudos and we commend the Pacers one hundred percent on

(04:51):
their play and then they gave the Thunder everything. That
game one was electric, the game winning by Halliburton. I
know that a lot of the NBA players that consider
him the most overrated, but it's kind of hard to
call this guy overrated when he was bawling, bawling at
the right times. And the bad part is is that

(05:14):
talking to somebody about this tyre's Halliburton would show up
in the fourth quarter when you want players to show up.
But everybody's complaint was that he wasn't showing up in
the first three quarters, right, But then he would end
the fourth quarter with some with some craziness, And I mean,
he had some bad games, so I wouldn't label him
a superstar yet, but I do think he's a star

(05:36):
in this league and he's a start in the making.
I think in time he will. I mean he had
of course, the game Sunday did get cut short because
he you know, looks like he tore his achilles and
he's probably done for the next three hundred and sixty
five days. Like he's probably not gonna play again US
till twenty twenty seven season, and he might not be
the same guy potentially, because achilles always changes a guy's play.

(06:00):
But at the same time, with his game being you know,
mainly on shooting, not really as much driving in my
personal opinion, but a lot of dishing and moving, he
should be able to get close to form at least
eighty ninety percent, especially because he likes to shoot the
ball deep. But I mean, he came in, he gave
you some some big games, especially against the Knicks, and

(06:22):
it was just crazy to see that he was able
to do that. And then of course they knocked off
the Calves, who were the top seed in the East.
They didn't just they they they actually knocked some teams off.
I mean, they beat the Calves and what on? They won?
What's this to start the freaking playoffs? They beat the
Calves at home and in Cleveland twice. They beat the

(06:45):
Knicks in New York twice to start off, like they
let it, They start off winning, and then they did
something said, well, Okay. See they came in and won
the first game against Oka. See, so you've got to
commend what the Pacers did. I mean that's five road
games they would out there, and they took it to
start each series. They they threw haymakers and they let

(07:06):
everybody know, Ay, don't play around with us, We're for real.
And I thought personally that the Thunder should have closed
this out in five if they didn't give up that massively.
The series was done basically, you know, it was done
in five. It was done in six actually, but I
mean five, It would be done in five. They would

(07:27):
have knocked them off, probably lost on the road, you know,
game three, and then close it out. But the Thunder
did not. And so because of that, they ended up
having to take it through seven. But the Thunder had
the opportunity to end this game early. They could have
ended this bad boy extremely early, and the Pacers were

(07:49):
not gonna go away. So commend them, kudos to them
the way they played. But one thing I give you
to the Thunder is, and I think fancy to take
this into perspective, is the Thunder is a very young team. Right,
SHA's twenty six, Chet's what twenty three, twenty four. Let

(08:12):
me look at this, Shay's twenty six, Hardenstein's twenty seven,
so he' still pretty young. Chet's twenty three, My bad,
Chet's twenty three, dub is twenty four. Your big three
is twenty six, twenty four and twenty three. That's huge
for a team that and then lose twenty six. Like

(08:34):
your entire core existence of this team is twenty six
and under. Like I said, these second youngest team in
EMBIA history to win a CHIP and they've still got
them on the contract long term. And so I know
a lot of people had issues with the way check
was playing. There was wondering if Check was ever gonna hit,
you know, if he was gonna hit that that stride
that they was expecting out of him. And to me,

(08:56):
he didn't nothing but improve each year. He's only played
a season and a half. He played eighty two in
twenty three to twenty four because he was out his
first year, and then last season this past season he
only played thirty two. So last season eighty two, this
past season thirty two. He's only played a year and
a half of NBA basketball, especially being hurt his rookie year.

(09:18):
Did y'all expect him to like come in and starting
scoring thirty immediately. Like to me, Check was starting to
show the evolution. Now. He was not great in every game,
like the last two before this finals game and he
had nine to four, Right, he was okay. It didn't
look like he had as much confidence as you'd like.
But hell, he scored twenty points in game three and

(09:40):
he over six from three. Right, he still went out
there and kept putting up shots. He was putting up.
He averaged ten shots a game, I mean nine percent
from the field, fifteen from three. Like the splits and
percentages not the best. But Chet was giving you some ball.
He was hooping, he was trying. That's the thing about it.

(10:01):
And I think what helped out the most was for
me in being okay with how Chet was performing, was
game five. In game seven, Game five, he was not
that good in that game. I mean, nine points, eleven boards, solid,
twenty six percent from the field, not that great. But
this is the thing that was big for me. His
defense was absurd. His defense was recognized. He was altering

(10:23):
shots and he was making players miss. That to me,
is more important than anything else that Chet did on
the court. He defensively stepped up and caused problems. And
that's exactly what you look for from a star player,
from a player that could potentially rise to stardom or
a good role player in general. Is that. But then

(10:46):
Dub like y'all were riding Dub hard all season like
he ain't it, he ain't ready. He averaged twenty three
in these finals, which is up from the rest of
the finals. Right. He had twenty three point three against Memphis.
He was blise against Denver. Shay had to take over
for the most part, and that's okay. He had a

(11:06):
good game thirty two in game three, you know, in
the push with the overtime game, but it's okay, twenty
two against Minnesota. So he showed up there thirty four
in game four, which looked like, oh yeah, that that
that was a game. He saved the thunder. And then
he came out here game five against the Pacers and
drive forty bomb. That's what you needed out of a

(11:27):
player like that. You don't even do it every week,
you don't even do it every game, but you do
need him to do it when it matters most. And
dubbed it that twenty in the in the closeout game
like the Thunder did not shoot that great in the playoffs,
especially in the finals. They were not shooting very good
at all. That just was not the way they were playing.

(11:49):
And it's okay. Why is it okay? Because this Thunder
team they're young, and now they got that experience that
everybody said they had to have in order to be
successful long term. They got it. They quote unquote skipped
the line. They made it. They did the play in
they made it to the second round, they skipped losing

(12:11):
in the conference finals and went on and won a championship.
Not very many teams can say that they did it
like Boston. They went to the finals and lost, right,
They lost multiple times in Eastern Conference finals. They had
to build it up. This Thunder team, for the most part,
built it up similar to the last iteration when they
went in twenty twelve. But if the twenty twelve team
didn't win and then the trades happened and the injuries

(12:32):
happened and they couldn't do anything about it, this team
is built. This team is good till twenty seven. Through
the twenty twenty seven season, it looks like can't beat that, right,
So because of that, now we get to talk about
how the Thunder long term will build themselves into a dynasty.
We'll dig into that. Actually it's going and didn't do

(12:55):
that right now, right after this break. What if I
told you Sam Presty may have the recipe to keep
this Thunder team in the Western Conference finals six of
the next eight years. Would you believe me? Now? You
probably would. Before you wouldn't have because they hadn't got
over the hump. Shout out to Sam Presty and Presty
we trust he finally got himself and his squad over

(13:19):
the hump and they made it happen. Something that you know,
we know that we have been waiting for is finally
Sam Presty getting his chip and he got it. Thunder
got that ring. Now I showed you that graphic before
on FanDuel. Let's look at this the Thunder dynasty right
now and this FanDuel put this up here. He gives
you all the draft picks. So did it all first

(13:41):
round picks they have? They got two first rounds this year,
the Clippers because we've got to swap and then we've
got the Miami Heats first. We got our own first.
The seventy six Ers first and the Jazz first next
year potentially. They all of course got protections, but we'll
see who that goes. And then you got the twenty
seven picks, two of them, a pick in twenty eight

(14:02):
which is Dallas's which is a swap, twenty nine got
our own with the Nuggets, which is also protected, and
then we've got ours twenty thirty, and then of course
a ton of second rounders, eleven first round picks potentially

(14:23):
through twenty thirty. And I'm gonna tell you this, what
they're going to do is they will be kicking probably
some of these draft picks forward. They'll probably use some
of them to trade up. I heard Presty is interested
in someone in the draft. I'm not sure who. But
for this Thunder team, what they're gonna be doing is
they're gonna be doing a lot of shifting in moving.
A lot of you are asking the question of how

(14:44):
they're gonna be able to keep this team together. These
draft picks are gonna allow them to do it. They'll
be able to get cheap labor that they can keep
around for two to three years, and if they feel
like they're a core component of the team to hang
on to them. If not, they're gonna trade them off
and get more assets. Presty has shown us that he
has the ability of building a roster needing to win

(15:04):
in a culture, needing to win in his organization. And
he started it at twenty eight years old. He was
young when he started at Seattle, but his experience over
the last what seventeen years, he has grown and has
shown that he's able to keep this team consistent. I mean,
the team had what three four losing seasons since it's

(15:25):
been here in seventeen years. That's absurd. Thunder fans are spoiled.
Just keep it, keep it real. It's just like they're
OU fans, right, Oklahoma fans, Sooner fans as well as
Thunder fans spoiled because they so used to always consistently
being good, having bad moments. And that rebuilt that he
did with Shay, and he basically gave him the blueprint
and told him what we were gonna do. Shay bought

(15:45):
in and said yeah, I'm here for It led to
him getting what an MVP. You cannot beat that. So
when you look at the Thunder going forward, there's a
lot of key components here that we can expect they're
gonna move a lot of these pieces. They're gonna make
a lot of trades, and they're gonna and there's a

(16:08):
case where Oklahoma City kicks a lot of these draft
picks forward down the line to thirty thirty one, twenty
thirty one, twenty thirty two, and or they could potentially
trade for another player. Now, the big thing is for
Oklahoma City is they don't have the contracts right now
to be able to really trade players off, Like nobody's
making enough to be able to go for a big

(16:29):
name player like I've been hearing Giannis's name for a
while as that's the one that is, Hey, Okhoma City
used to go after him. The struggle and the problem
with that is they don't really have big enough contracts
to make that trade happen. But could they Yes, But
does it make sense? Not so much. I think this
team is good enough of there. Obviously they're good enough

(16:51):
without Yiannis to win more championships.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Now.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
I do expect the Milwaukee Bucks to trade Yiannis because
they don't know if he's gonna stick around, you know,
right when he when his contract is up, Because his
contract he's coming up very soon on his extension and

(17:16):
when we look at the contract here, I mean he
signed that well, that three year, one eighty six he's sitting.
I think it's like a player option at the end
at the twenty seven to twenty eight for the twenty
seven twenty eight season, so he's coming up. I do
believe that they do similar to what Okayse did with Durant,

(17:40):
and I think they riote this all the way out.
I don't see them actually trading him unless they do
like a sign in trade when he hits his player option,
when Milwaukee's gonna have to figure out something to put
some stuff around him. And I don't know if Oklahoma
City is the place for Yonnest. I don't think he
fits what this team is trying.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
To do.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
At all. But I do think that the thunder have
an opportunity to actually build a dynasty. And I only
believe that because of Sam Presty, because Sam Presty has
proven his ability to gather to do the one thing
that actually Boston did this as well. This is something
that Danny Ainge did also at Boston being able to
play in today as well as in the future. Now
for Boston, they were only able to get one ring

(18:23):
out of it so far, and we don't really feel
like Jason Tatum or Jalen Brown are truly superstars. We
think their star players in this league, but we don't
think they're superstars at all in a way I can see,
I would hear the case that one of those two
can end up being a superstar, but Shay's already there. Yeah.

(18:45):
I mean, I know a lot of people hate Sga
because the way he I don't. I like a player
that can find a way to get buckets and his
mid range is stupid good and even whenever he's not
getting fouled like it's funny. I've heard a lot of
talking heads talk about him and the head jerking and whatnot.
I watched the Pacers with the exact same thing throughout

(19:05):
the entire playoffs, and nobody really talked about it. The
only reason why he talk about the SHGA is because
he's dropping thirty and he's consistent when it's thirty. He
had twenty nine to close out game. He's consistently between
twenty eight and thirty two. Go look at his numbers.
One of the most consistent players we've seen in a
long time. It's very impressive that he's able to do that,
but him being the leader and being the superstar of

(19:28):
this team, I think Jaylen Williams can descend himself up
that I don't know about check yet. I'm still I
think Chick's going to be a long term great role
player as a former number two pick. But I do
think that Dubb and Sga is going to be the
duo that should be able to win championships. At least
win two more chips and six six of the next

(19:49):
eight Western Conference finals. Oklahoma City needs to be there.
So for me, as a Thunder fan and a fan
of the NBA Thunder, win more championships cool, but I'm
not concern learned about that no more. We've got the
one that I'm happy about. I can say I've seen
it in my lifetime. I want more. I would love
for us to have a dynasty run like the Warriors,
and truth be told, they could. They set the record

(20:12):
for the largest point differential in NBA history through the
regular season in the playoffs they've done. This is a
historic team, so we got to give them props. And
Sam Presty will have this team continuously competing because with
the picks that they have and the way things are
set up, barring injury, they'll still be able to move
around and be they have the flexibility to get players

(20:33):
if they desperately need them. Shout out to Presty for
doing that. Let me know what y'all think. Hop into comments.
We want to hear all of y'all's thoughts. Let's talk
about the Houston Rockets just made a trade for Kevin
Durant and I and it was crazy of when they

(20:54):
did it. Let's let's talk about it, Raphidus. It's done.
Kevin Durant is headed to the Houston Rockets. Wild right.
I think it's probably the wildest trade. And it's one
of those trades I would not have expected to actually
go down because there were so many variables in my

(21:15):
personal opinion about this trade opportunity, and it's the chances
of this trade happening that made me not believe that
it was gonna be able to go down. But they
did it. The Rockets have got Kevin Durant. The trade
includes Jalen Brown and Dylan Brooks, the number ten pick

(21:39):
for this year's draft, in five second rounders, which is
sounds like a lot but it ain't. But Also, this
makes me think about the Desmond Bane trade that happened
with the Orlando Magic. A lot of people were hammering
the Magic for sending all those picks and stuff over
to Memphis for him, But it sounds like Memphis is

(22:01):
going to leverage that to try to rebuild around John
Morant still and get probably try to get another star
because they need another player that can think somebody's gonna
be able to be healthy in play. But on top
of that, this KD trade, At first, when I looked
at it on the surface, I was it's like, ugh,
this just feels like a bad trade just because of

(22:21):
his age. KD is older. He's what fifty, he's what
thirty seven? He's old like he's getting up there in
age thirty seven in September when he But we know
Kevin Durant's gonna be a walking bucket for the rest
of his career. He should be able to put up
twenty five per game until he retires, probably at forty.
That Achilles man, he had his head, leg injuries, and

(22:42):
he makes you have questions foot, ankle, foot, you know, foot, Achilles.
All of that makes you wonder. But he's still putting
up Buckets. Does this make the Rockets better? I don't know.
While at the same time, the Rockets is still a
very young squad as well. When you look at their roster,

(23:04):
they're still young. They brought back Steven Adams, which is
a fantastic pick up. There's a lot of Sengoon Effan Singoon.
People got a lot of excitement around him. Same thing
with Ree Sheppard. Jabari Smith now is gonna probably see
more game, you know, another top pick. I mean Thomas,
you'll see some more and he was bawling. I like him.
Ken whitmore, she'd see more time as well. There's a
lot about the Rockets to be excited about. For them

(23:26):
in Houston, I just don't know if Kevin Durant truly
makes them better like that. Van Vleid is still you know,
leading the charge. But is this enough to get past
the Thunder. I don't know. Because the Thunder in the West,
they're the power aided number one team right now. There's
nobody else to even point past them. In Minnesota, the

(23:46):
other team, you got a aunt who's being his third
fourth year, he's starting to ascend as one of the superstars.
Let me make this kind of about Antho too. Anthony
Edwards is probably one of my favorite players to watch
outside of my Thunder. He reminds me of NBA Jam
the way he jumps and just flies through the air.

(24:06):
He looks like an NBA Jam player. It's just crazy
his hops and his ability. But the rockets, to me,
on paper look good. But we've seen on paper how
teams look great. Now I need to see it. How

(24:27):
Emai Oduka puts Kevin Durant into this system. That's what
I need to see. I need to see how do
they play him? How do they integrate him with Thompson,
with Shepherd, with Van Vliet, with Sengoon? How is that?
How do they work together? I don't know. I have

(24:49):
those questions. I think the Dylan Brooks move Phoenix is
just in turmoil. They're gonna have to make whole bunch
of trades. They gotta get rid of people, and their
biggest issue is now they took on Jalen Green, which
is crazy to me that his stock is so low.
People do not like Jalen Green. It sounds like no
one really is into him at all. Never I don't know.

(25:14):
I don't get it. But he's also kind of disappeared.
They've been waiting for him to blossom into something and
he hasn't just done it yet. Sons now have him
with Bradley beal to contracts they probably want to get
rid of, and I don't know how they do it,
but I think the Desmond Main trade now with the

(25:34):
news of Tire's Halliburton get hurt, makes that move that
Orlando did a lot smarter. They're now up there in
the East them with the Knicks right, the Pacers will
have to figure it out. They may have to go
after another player with Halliburton being done roughly until mid
to the end of next season. They now the Magic

(25:58):
are now truly a contender. Everybody stays healthy. They'll be young,
but bain Fits feels the need for them. Katie adds
scoring ability, but I don't think he has the defense.
That's where my question comes in. I get why everybody
loves the trade for Houston because he's Kevin Durant and

(26:20):
we know he's gonna be a walking bucket until he
gets forty. But I just don't know if I can
believe in him on this team yet at his age.
I only look at it from age, not skill set
age and age has shown with a lot of these players.
I mean, I got let me see. Let me ask

(26:42):
this question. How many games has Kevin Durant played? How
many seasons has he had where he's played? It's not
every game since he's been in Phoenix. He came in Phoenix,
let me see after his injury, played thirty five games

(27:05):
for the Nets, fifty five the next season, so sharts
to go up. He did play forty seven the year
after in the trade from Brooklyn to Phoenix, play seventy five,
twenty three, twenty four, and then last season sixty two.
Will him playing around sixty games be enough for the Suns?
I mean for the Rockets, Kevin Durant playing sixty games?

(27:27):
Will that be enough? Do they have enough firepower outside
of him for that to be? Okay, it's a possibility,
But I don't know if I am as sold on
this trade as everybody else is yet. I'm gonna have
to I'm gonna have to see it in action. Like
I said, on paper, it looks good. On paper, it

(27:50):
looks great because for the most part, Houston has done
a really good job of spreading out the scoring. They
haven't had anybody really be that alpha Katie's gonna be
that he should be your twenty five to twenty seven
points per game guy, then everybody else can fall in line.
They had seven players in double figures last season, which
is good. And I think Jabari Smith is now ready

(28:11):
to make the jump. Same thing with the mean Thomas Thompson.
With the mean Thompson as well as Jabari Smith making
that jump, Houston should have a chance if they can
find a way to integrate Kevin Durrett and I think
Uducka can do it. But again, I gotta see it.
We'll see what it looks like. All right, let's talk
about this Shador Sanders speeding incident and why he might

(28:36):
have cast himself the starting job in Cleveland. But I
wanted to start off with this. I was listening to
Bamani Jones on Friday, and he has similar sentiments as me.
He's one of my favorite talking heads because he gives
you some to think about. And I'm gonna play what
he said and I'm explaining to you why that jumped
out to me and some of the other stuff in

(28:58):
the notes that should do or needs to do better about.
So let's jump into this real quick here. What Bamani
had to say, and then we're going to dive in
top notes.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
You get caught going seventy and a fifty five. That
could happen to the best of us, play us up
to you go on one oh one and a sixty five.
We're talking about something entirely. This is what I would
say if I knew him. I don't have that many
things that I look back on from when I was
younger and just be like, man, you was tripping. I

(29:30):
don't have that many of it. But I used to
drive really fast. I can think about some of those times,
and I can actually get a little bit emotional because
it was so stupid, how much I was putting my
actual life in danger. If I were Dion or anybody
else that's around him, my thing wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Have ben ainymen, everybody speeds every now and then. It
ain't that big a deal. No, bro, this a big deal.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
It's not a big deal that requires me to moralize
or to wag my finger at you.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
It's to let you know that Henry rudds that could
be you man. To me, that's what jumps out. This
is more of a human situation, and I know that
Chadour is a showed at the beginning of the video.
He's here. He needs to prove himself for home, not

(30:17):
everybody else. And the unfortunate thing is is that he's
not proving himself in a very good position. And this
is why it's not in a good position. Yes, as
Bo said, some of you will say, well, I've spared
before and everything. That's cool and all. Yes, you also
aren't the face of a franchise or potential face or
the potential QB one, which makes you, in theory, the
CEO of the organization. You're the dude everybody's gonna look

(30:39):
at for all types of accountability. Now, we know Chadur's
infamous for showing up early, being prepared for stuff, so
I don't since this was a situation where he just
you know, was speaking because he's trying to hear it.
Get to work. Nah. This is him just out there
having fun as a young kid. That's cool enough. Problem
with that is this is not the first time he
was cited with a speeding ticket. The first time he

(31:01):
got one is for ninety something. Now this one was
one hundred and one and a sixty five be keeping
a buck. The boy has spent a few times in
his life, especially driving the highways. I have hit some
of these highways and you know, sixty five maybe seventy
enough cone up to about one hundred and something, but
then I immediately sow down. I don't drive that speed.
The entire time problem for shaduor has probably did something

(31:21):
similar and got caught doing it. But the worst part
about this and why this imagery is bad for him
is because it's the second time. He also missed the
court date for the first one. That right there is
the most damning thing of this entire piece. And as
Bo mentioned in that clip that I wanted you all
to hear, the Henry Reil situation is serious. Now. Granted

(31:42):
I don't don't since and looking through it all that
Shadur was under the influence in any capacity. I don't
even think he gets under the influence like that. It
was more so him out there just trying to have
a little fun. Problem is that Henry rail situation did happen,
and he recently was talking about and apologized to the family,
and it sounds like the background he came from he
had to fight a lot of demons to get out

(32:04):
of that situation. And so it sucks in overall that
that situation happened, and he relates his paying for it.
He is in jail, he is dealing with the consequences
of his actions. For Shaduur, the biggest problem here is
he missed a court date. And he also plays for

(32:25):
organizations gone through forty quarterbacks in their twenty six year
second existence. Since nineteen ninety nine, Cleveland Browns have had
forty quarterbacks and the ones you all remember the most
Johnny Manziel, Baker, Mayfield, Shaun Watson. Seems that all of
them had something going on from either college or in
the pros. Cleveland is infamous for this. This is what

(32:47):
they do, and that's the bad part for Shaduur. His
goal is to help reshape the image of the Cleveland
Browns and those actions just now may have caused him
the opportunity of being the number one QB on the squad. Granted,
there is a chance that he can get he can
fix this and be QB one and be just fine.

(33:10):
But the problem still lies that he put himself in
a situation where everybody's gonna be judging him harshly. He
did it, That is all on him. One hundred percent,
and so there's no sugar coating any of this. There's
no getting past nothing. He put himself in a situation.
Now there is a path for redemption for Schador in

(33:31):
all of this, and his path for redemption is he's
gonna have to put his head down and show that
he deserves to be your top quarterback and he has
to put himself in a situation where he's more of
a CEO. This is how he does it. Dudes got
bred just naturally, He's raised with it. He's Dion Sanders' son.
So he's got that hire driver no more driving. I

(33:54):
understand that you enjoy your exotic cars and all of
that and being no, can't do it no more. You
need to take rep ponsibility because the good thing for
you is ESPN Cleveland has been showing a QB tracker
thing that they've been putting up every single week from
the camps and stuff. And guess who has been leading
the way? You got it, Special Door. He has been
seeming like the best quarterback out there. And because he's

(34:18):
been seeming like the best quarterback out there, you're seeing
him be the face that everybody's pushing to be QB one.
Everybody's pushing for it, but he's gonna have to do
what he needs to do to not screw that up.
That's where the problem lies is the optics are more
important today than actual actions, especially when you're that polarizing

(34:40):
as a person. Everybody's got them jokes off. They're reminding
everybody or where he dropped. You know, he you know
he was going one hundred and one to sixty one.
I mean he also went one hundred and forty four
in the twenty when he was supposed to be twenty five.
Hauha ha Hall. You're seeing all of that, and as
that is unfortunately the response you're gonna get. Everyone wants
to find a reason to knock your door down. And
so the only way she is gonna get out of

(35:01):
this is he's gonna have to prove everybody wrong and
himself right. He needs to prove that he is a
good guy, that he is able to make good decisions,
he is able to be accountable, he's able to go
out and win. He's gonna have to do that. That
is all on his back going forward, and so for Colorado,

(35:22):
they're gonna have to deon. Sander's got to do what
he needs to do to make sure that his boy
is good. And Colorado's gonna hear a lot about this.
I mean, you know, the Buffs have been hearing about
the fact that they've retired as Jersey and everybody's been
talking smack about that. They're still gonna reflect back on
the Buffs and they've got to do what they need
to do internally there to make sure that there is
no other situations where people can try to come after

(35:44):
the Sanders family, because they're going to they're the most
polarizing family. I mean, you see multiple channels talking about them. Heck,
I got one because I've been a big fan of
Deon Sanders since I was a kid. So for them,
it's gonna be about cleaning up images and making sure
that Colorado stays up and at a positive look, and
for sure door in order for him to help the

(36:06):
school and help his dad and help the Sanders name
and anybody that comes behind him, he's gonna have to
fix some stuff about himself to make sure that the
Cleveland Browns can't go back or fans in general and
the media can't point back to where they took Johnny Monzel.
They took Deshaun Watson, they took Baker Mayfield. All of
them did stuff. Now Baker has gone a great job
of going to Tampa Bay completely cleaning up his own image.

(36:28):
He did it. He's showing his dad he's a leader,
shows that he can do things right. And he's just
buckled down and say, you know what, I'm gonna focus
on doing all the stuff that I'm really good at
as a person and making sure no one has those
bad things to say about me like I did when
I was in college. That's what you're gonna have to do.
She's you really gonna do something similar. De Shaan Watson's
lost cause nothing to clean up. Once his contract's done,
that dude's gone. Anybody gonna touch him again. And you

(36:50):
saw Manziel didn't last very long. But Cleveland has been
the place that all of these dudes end up at.
They're willing to take the polarizing name and the polarizing
skill set to continue to I guess shine the brand up.
But what's gonna have to happen force your door. It's
going to clean it up. If he cleans it up,

(37:11):
I promise you he's got the skills set to do it.
But he's gonna have to be the one that says,
you know what, this looks terrible because the speeding thing,
I'll say that happens. The missing a court date, that
is poor, poor reflection of character for him, very poor,

(37:32):
especially after the situation with Shiloh. You don't do that.
You don't do that. Don't miss your court dates. Honestly,
don't put you up in the situation. So my plea
is for him to put his head down and continue
to play ball like he's been. He'n't even be driving
no more for a while. Unless you're driving around the corner,
stay off the highway, stay out of the opportunities to speed.

(37:54):
Go buy yourself a cheaper car to where you don't
even feel like you want to speed. But you got
to take responsibility, and the most important responsibility for you, dude,
is keep your name out of the out of police reports.
That's how you do it. Don't know what y'all think.
Hop into comments. I want to hear y'all's thoughts. All right,

(38:17):
thank y'all for pulling up. Man, it's been a bit stuff.
Actually took time to put this together. Hopefully y'all enjoyed
not only the talking as well as the video content.
Check it out on YouTube if you're listening. If you're watching,
you can also listen to it in podcast versions. Just
search Unfair Sports with Jay. I've been wanting to do
this again for a while, but we will. I'll be

(38:40):
back my goals twice a week and I'm gonna try
to say it's consistent to it as possible. So for Mike,
Bob and Wendy, thank you so much for doing what
you do best in the background. And uh yeah, we'll
have something out at the end of this week. We'll
chop it up with each and every one of you
very soon.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
Peace.
