Hello Beautiful! The. Ah,

0:05

For the soccer tournament that's got a

0:07

this morning on this girl carried on

0:09

your A on a wins this point.

0:11

Source Now. I.

0:15

Can't get it and See has made

0:17

it's debut this morning against the Reggae

0:19

Rovers in this beautiful city of carry

0:21

North Carolina. Now listen, there is a

0:23

chance that I'm feeling some pools in

0:26

the hamstrings, the groins, the hip flexor,

0:28

what I believe I even strained an

0:30

achilles out there this morning and as

0:32

our team lost in devastating fashion four

0:34

to one. although I made a saw

0:37

the net a little bit, I didn't

0:39

catch the ball, actually had to chase

0:41

a guy down and almost pooped in

0:43

the middle of my debut. Com

0:45

K Fantasy Team will figure it out

0:48

and they will get things done it

0:50

before our next game this evening at

0:52

seven Pm against Natty Se. Until then

0:54

what we doing? A show live here

0:56

from a stage that we set up

0:58

right next to one of the showcase

1:00

fields and I'm not alone. you know

1:02

know I have a incredible group with

1:04

me. The Toxic Table is your app

1:06

passing corner and that I said. Now.

1:33

There is a minute ago. Tractor

1:37

Gonna rob. A

1:39

Very able to hear that I don't have. You're

1:41

able to hear that through the to the or

1:43

through the internet. i

1:45

didn't see it but the biggest voc employing

1:48

you never just were seemingly that is watchers

1:50

happen here in carry north carolina obviously lot

1:52

of military gear in north carolina which i

1:54

don't appreciate the hell out of and also

1:56

a crowd that has gathered sitting on a

1:58

hill you guys are Thank

2:01

you for coming out. We did

2:03

not expect anybody to be here, so we

2:06

do not have a camera shooting that way.

2:08

We certainly have to kick that in the

2:10

Hawksnest, ladies and gentlemen. A man who's a

2:12

college football national champion, a Super Bowl champion,

2:14

a Ryder Cup champion, and a guy who's

2:16

first place soccer there. Hey,

2:18

Jay. Hey, Jay. Hey, Jay.

2:21

Hey, Jay. So, it's nice up here, man. I

2:23

like the Hawksnest. It's usually a tone situation, but

2:25

I'll take it. That will be tone situation, but

2:27

tone is back in Indianapolis, Indiana, just in case

2:29

we were not able to get live from this

2:31

particular spot in beautiful, very North Carolina.

2:34

Now, there was a little bit of a

2:36

situation yesterday where I took a shot at a guy who works here.

2:38

Sure. Mr. Crotz. Now,

2:41

I believe there was a potential miscommunication, it

2:43

turns out, and Crotz is a good guy.

2:45

Crotz is a good guy. The maintenance team

2:48

here has been fantastic to carry North Carolina

2:50

people, but the city that are in this,

2:52

and also the TST people who have tried

2:54

to make this as efficient as

2:56

possible has helped us out immensely. We are lucky

2:58

to be here, pumped to be here, thankful to

3:00

be here in carry North Carolina. They got, like,

3:03

putting greens for fields. It

3:06

is maybe the most gorgeous sports complex I've been to.

3:08

We're lucky to be here, thankful to be here. It's

3:10

not just us, though. No, no, no. There

3:13

is a premier, um,

3:15

there is a lead,

3:17

right below the Premier

3:19

League, uh, an

3:22

England team owner here whose

3:25

team is represented in TST

3:27

fighting for a million dollar

3:29

prize. He actually played this morning,

3:32

almost scored a goal. Whoa, yeah. Almost

3:34

scored a goal. Had a save by a

3:36

goalie. His team lost 72, but

3:38

he showed up in a big way. Ladies

3:40

and gentlemen, JJ Wall. Can everybody hear me? All

3:42

right, there we go. I'm

3:46

thrown off by AJ in the DJ booth up in the

3:48

corner here, spinning one's up. Let's

3:52

not talk about what age seven to three.

3:55

First of all, seven to three. Okay, we

3:57

got three goals more than you guys scored.

4:02

But I have to echo your sentiments. North

4:05

Carolina is a beautiful place. Beautiful

4:09

place. These fields are impeccable. A lot of fields

4:11

too. So touche to everybody here in Cary, North

4:13

Carolina. A phenomenal setup here. Could you imagine if

4:16

the NFL owners were able to put this type

4:18

of grass in it? Could you imagine? It must

4:20

be so expensive that these guys are doing it

4:22

here because there's a hundred fields of beautiful grass.

4:24

It actually made me feel younger, feel faster. Now

4:26

I grew up playing soccer so I had a

4:28

little bit of nostalgia when I was on the

4:30

field. I was running at one point and I

4:32

was like, oh shit, yeah, still got it. And

4:35

then a Jamaican guy actually put his

4:37

shoulder through my chest into my jaw.

4:40

And I was like, oh, I didn't know we were

4:42

still, I didn't know we did that. I completely forgot

4:44

that we did that in this particular sport. You didn't

4:46

have any of that because you didn't grow up playing

4:48

soccer. I grew up in a similar but different atmosphere

4:50

with youth hockey. So tournaments, this whole vibe that we've

4:52

had with our squad, I mean we have a team

4:54

hotel, we did a little activity last night, a little

4:56

golf simulator and dinner to get us together. And

4:59

then today you know you're arriving and warming

5:01

up with your squad. Like I feel like

5:03

I'm on a fifth grade youth football

5:06

team right now and it's fun. Like it's like

5:08

we're at a tournament. It's cool. Exactly how I

5:10

feel. Legitimately exactly how I feel. Got a chance

5:12

to hang out with the boys this morning. Met

5:14

them last night. We got in late because there

5:16

was a holding pattern. I guess North Carolina is,

5:18

you know, it's beautiful. They're able

5:20

to have this type of grass. I think that it

5:22

does rain. I think when it

5:24

rains it comes. We're just circling the city for

5:26

an hour and fifteen minutes. We missed the training

5:28

session last night with the boys but everybody on

5:30

our team has that feeling. I feel so bad

5:32

for you in that tiny little plane that you

5:35

were on. I mean I know you fly around

5:37

in that tiny little thing or back

5:39

in coach. I know I'm sure it's tough

5:41

in coach when you're circling for an hour.

5:43

Did your caviar get warm? Okay.

5:48

Actually the snackies weren't great. No. Too

5:51

many veggie straws. I wasn't part of

5:53

the conversation. It was. You smashed them.

5:56

We had veggie straws though. Yeah too many of

5:58

them though. introduce the veggie

6:00

straws of my son. Big fan of him. Big fan of

6:02

veggie straws. Oh, my daughter loves the veggie straws. Big fan

6:04

of veggie straws. Oh yeah. Before we get

6:06

to the big news. Don't say that word. Don't you

6:09

say that word. Don't say this. There's

6:11

already enough people doing it. Come on. Don't you

6:13

say that word. Stop it. Especially in Cary, North

6:15

Carolina. This place is gorgeous. Before

6:17

we get to the big news in the NBA, which is, it's

6:19

corrupt. Uh-huh. Oh no. I

6:22

mean, I've been playing soccer all morning. What happened? Me

6:24

too. Literally just came through. Conman,

6:27

what's happening in the NBA? Yeah, so

6:29

John T. Porter allegedly is now being

6:31

accused by federal prosecutors that he

6:34

was in fact throwing games on purpose because

6:36

he had so much gambling debt with his

6:38

co-contributors that they were basically like, hey, I'm

6:40

going to need you to go out and miss 18

6:42

threes tonight and then we will all make $100,000. So

6:45

that's what they're saying now. And then there's also a

6:47

Rico report that he sent a text on April

6:49

4th like, hey, this may be a Rico thing.

6:52

That's kind of very new. Don't know much

6:54

about that. But allegedly now, yes, he is

6:57

being accused of... Freaking games? On purpose. And

7:00

that's... Can't have that in sports enough. Sports gambling

7:02

obviously is going to be very prevalent in sports

7:04

for a long time because there's a lot of

7:06

money in it and nobody's winning. The gambling companies

7:08

are definitely winning just like the casinos have

7:10

those big ass balls. They are doing... They're

7:13

going to win. So it's going to be involved in

7:15

sports, especially as it continues to get more regulated and

7:17

legalized and everything like that. The biggest nightmare of every

7:19

human is your cooking games. Yeah.

7:22

You can't be cooking. And with the NBA, they already have

7:24

Tim Donaghy. And imagine if one of your guys was out

7:27

here trying to miss. That's what John T. Porter

7:29

was doing, allegedly. And they pulled up a clip from him back

7:31

in the day. He's trying to

7:33

miss this three-clearly. He banks it home.

7:35

He throws this son of a bitch

7:37

through the backboard. Oh, and he goes in. He

7:40

comes in. And allegedly to

7:42

show him... What's the case? What's the

7:44

case? Well, he's about to get his

7:46

arms broken. Yeah, that's crazy. That's crazy.

7:49

That's old school. That's not what I think would still be

7:51

happening. But obviously, this is going to be pushing the spotlight

7:53

in a big, big way. Because we've seen

7:55

this type of thing in the past in movies as well.

7:58

Yeah, I can't love it. But I mean, the reality... The

8:00

reality is we have a Paul Crew in the

8:02

NBA. Adam Sandler, everybody knows,

8:04

longest yard, former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback,

8:06

shaving points, goes to federal prison

8:08

in Texas. And they

8:11

darn near shot him in the head later on

8:13

in the movie when he was playing. So, I mean, it's

8:15

not good for the NBA. It's not good for sports as

8:17

a whole. Never thought I'd see today

8:19

we'd have another Paul Crew in

8:21

professional sports, but here we are. And the reality

8:24

is there's no escaping it. That's not like Ryan

8:26

McGee there. Obviously North Carolina legends. It's tough not

8:28

to when you get down here. You know,

8:30

you kind of just throw the hills. Exactly, it wouldn't.

8:32

You're driving around, you see Bo Daniels. You know, you

8:34

see his brother. There's Bo Daniels on every corner. It's

8:36

hard not to kind of just pay homage to McGee.

8:39

So I may, you know, kind of slip in and

8:41

out of this all day today. We'll see. I'm having

8:43

a great time in North Carolina. Can we break down

8:45

the logistics of that? So obviously

8:48

there's got to be bets on him missing certain

8:50

amounts of points or scoring under certain amount of

8:52

points. It was threes made was a big one.

8:54

Would that not be the single most obvious thing

8:56

if all of a sudden a bunch of money's

8:58

coming in on this guy and then he's missing

9:01

the shots. I mean, like, I

9:03

feel like there's gotta be, we're gonna do it.

9:05

I don't want to just update you on this

9:07

story as you're talking, because you're making great points.

9:09

It actually came out that DraftKings reported like

9:12

an abnormality with one of the bets because it

9:14

was the biggest winner of any bet that they

9:16

had for the entire week. And it was like

9:18

under one and a half threes or something like

9:20

that. And then there was a game where he

9:22

went in there and then he came out early,

9:24

left the game early, didn't even play it. And

9:26

it was like four points or something. So

9:29

he like got sick or something. I mean,

9:31

I think if you're gonna do it, man, like

9:33

let's sit down and think about it. Like, I

9:35

feel like you could come up with a better

9:37

plan. Yeah, yeah. What would you plan? What would

9:39

you plan? I don't know, but it wouldn't be

9:41

a bet. But now $50,000 on me to shoot

9:43

less than five threes and then all of a

9:45

sudden I go out there, I chuck up bricks

9:47

like, yeah. Oh, wow. AJ. We've

9:50

never had a thousand dollars on JJ Watts to miss

9:52

a sack before. And wow, a thousand dollars came in

9:54

this morning and he just whiffed. Crazy.

9:57

It was 40. That's

10:00

the NBA. They make a lot

10:02

of money. A lot of money. Who

10:04

does it owe money to? Who does it owe to

10:06

DraftKings or to Old School Bookies? Is that who he

10:08

owes money to? Yeah.

10:10

And so federal prosecutors found the first

10:12

Nazi NBA? Who's punching them?

10:14

Yeah, not me. That was me. That

10:17

was bad. That was bad radio. Sorry, bad

10:19

TV. What handled that? Yes, I agree. Bad

10:22

TV, JJ. Who did the NBA name? Do

10:24

you know about it or who knew about

10:26

it first? The prosecutors or the NBA? DraftKings

10:28

was the first report. That whole thing Pat

10:30

just said about how the biggest prop out of the

10:32

night out of nowhere was John T. Porter under like

10:34

four and a half points or five points or whatever.

10:36

And then from there it kind of trickled on. But

10:38

I think it did start with DraftKings. But he's not

10:40

punching his own DraftKings ticket. No, it was through

10:42

a guy. It was through the... That's why you

10:45

get caught up because you had a third party

10:47

in there. Yeah, those are the contributors that they're

10:49

saying that were telling him, hey, you need to

10:51

do this because you are down a shit ton

10:53

of money. That was probably an off-site book like

10:55

Shohei Otan. This fascinates me. This is really fascinating.

10:57

Yeah, it's crazy because literally every building you walk

10:59

into as a sport, I don't know what you

11:01

guys having to Burnley stable here. You know, because everybody's

11:03

got a stable pretty much in the players village. Sure.

11:09

There's what it's called. Everybody has a stable. We

11:11

have a picture of Pete Rose right up there

11:13

when everybody walks in and it says, don't be

11:15

Pete Rose of the soccer tournament. A million bucks.

11:17

Somebody can get a little nosy. Oh yeah. You

11:20

know, potentially doing some things. But anytime this happens,

11:22

people bring up great Cincinnati red Pete Rose, AJ.

11:24

And I know that breaks your heart obviously because

11:26

you love the way that guy could swing a

11:28

bat. But there's a difference between

11:31

betting like

11:33

boxers betting on themselves. Yep. That's

11:36

fine. I think that's completely fine. For sure. Double

11:39

the purse. Yeah. It's one on one.

11:41

You're doubling the purse here. You're in a great good area.

11:43

Ron Garcia. Yeah. You do

11:45

what you got to do. But Pete

11:48

Rose is pumped that John Day is doing this. Oh yeah. Pete

11:50

Rose is like, I didn't do that. Pete had the comment, what? I

11:52

just need an interpreter when the whole show. He

11:55

continues to be thrust into the spotlight again

11:57

and again throughout this whole process. the

12:00

hole what are we doing? Oh Pete, yeah, let Pete in.

12:02

Holy shit, one

12:04

of GORE! It's a soccer

12:06

tournament! Oh, our team

12:08

is close. To be clear, we have no

12:10

idea who scored on what team or how they did

12:13

it, but it is a lot to

12:15

find that they did what they did. Absolutely. Is

12:17

it not, Todd? Yeah, I mean, 2-2, 13 minutes

12:19

left, you know, I believe one of these teams

12:21

is Sergio Aguero. Yeah, he's, uh-huh. There's a lot

12:23

of small humans on that field. JJ,

12:25

how'd you feel about that? How'd you, because my team's

12:27

big, have you seen my team? Yeah, your team is

12:30

huge. My team is very big, and I don't know

12:32

if that's good or bad as we've been. Oh, I'm

12:34

gonna, the results not great, because

12:36

I'm also large and we had better. I know, I

12:38

know, I'm saying, jeez, calm down. Well, you said

12:40

it earlier, now you're running your mouth, you don't think

12:42

Conk A-fast, he's gonna figure it out? Tony Miola's giving

12:44

a fucking speech right now. I hope so, I've been

12:46

watching film with Rovers, and I asked you guys for

12:49

tips on what happened, and you were like, I don't

12:51

know, they scored the first goal, or it was, where's

12:53

Gumpy? Gumpy was like, they scored the first goal and

12:55

got away from us. Like, that doesn't

12:57

help me tonight. They counted us. Obviously, I'm not sure. Why'd

13:00

you guys do so? Counter attack. They

13:02

kind of, they got the

13:04

plays. They know where to go. I was

13:06

watching our team, and it was like a synchronized

13:08

swimming routine, as they were all kind of finding

13:10

our spot. In our team, we had five guys

13:12

on the field, supposed to have six, we had

13:15

five guys on the multi-time. Shut up. Wait, what

13:17

happened? We had seven guys on the field, one

13:19

time, yellow court, somebody got a damn yellow court.

13:21

Yeah. I'm telling you, it was Kegos, JJ. It

13:23

was Kegos, Tony Miola's not figuring out. He does.

13:25

Tony Miola was worried about the World Series, College

13:27

World Series, that Oklahoma State team, his boa plays

13:30

on. Yep. His boa plays on the Oklahoma State

13:32

baseball team. They just lost to Florida. No, they

13:34

didn't make it. Why

13:36

you keep talking shit for Tony Miola? I didn't

13:38

know. You just said his boys playing in the

13:40

College World Series. I said Omaha. That's

13:43

why I literally said Omaha. Might as well call me

13:45

Peyton Manning. Oh, I get

13:47

it. That's pretty good. Production. Jay, you almost scored today,

13:50

right? I did. We have the footage.

13:52

We have the footage closed. Roll it. Roll

13:54

it. You can talk over it. You think you had it?

13:56

Like honestly, it'd feel great to score out here. I was,

13:58

I could not tell you how. I was

14:00

at this moment. All right, which one are you

14:02

JJ? I'm the big one. Okay. Nothing like everybody

14:05

else a sitter Oh my god.

14:07

Oh, no Great thing. I thought

14:09

first time seeing that I did not get to see

14:11

it because I was playing as well And then all

14:13

the videos were we getting uploaded late look at that's

14:15

a real opportunity. Yes. Is that foot to post? No

14:17

Yeah, yeah, he's unbelievable safe. Yeah, suck his foot out

14:20

the last second I mean my eyes did you touch

14:22

it? Did you leave yourself or was that no? I

14:24

had it was one right there. You touch that. Oh,

14:26

did I I don't know I blacked out very pick

14:28

I got so excited cherry pick. Yeah, we're going No,

14:31

that's actually part of the plan. I know that's what I

14:33

mean. There's no all sides. Yeah, there's no outside So you

14:35

can't hang out in the box, which is a some sort

14:38

of like three second rule I can't hang on the box.

14:40

You can't be in there for longer than I don't know

14:42

what the second away But the reggae rivers were cheating and

14:44

doing along. I don't think that's a rule it is cuz

14:46

it's coach Gomp was living Coach Gompin coach meola got into

14:48

a full fight with the ref. Yeah, I

14:51

don't think that's I

14:53

was hanging out in the box, right? Well,

14:55

that's your JJ Coach

14:57

meola saying hey, what are you talking about boy? I

14:59

mean you say it's a delay and then that guy's

15:01

not in there. Oh, you guys were actually getting into

15:03

it Oh, yeah, I'm gonna win anytime Anytime

15:06

there's a ref They're

15:09

gonna hear from me. Yeah, I get it normally, you

15:11

know Don't worry about actually talked to the refs that

15:13

called our game earlier as they walked out here I

15:15

said, I think you boys did okay.

15:18

Yeah, I think your boys. I

15:20

think boys handle yourself Well, I said nobody's gonna

15:22

live off a missed goal more than me I

15:24

will play that goal for years to come good

15:26

run just to prove that I almost could play

15:28

soccer It was a great play. Thank you. I

15:30

also wiped out the keeper at one point I

15:33

don't know if we have footage of that, but

15:35

we went up for a header each of us

15:37

and what the guys did his own I

15:39

respect it. Let's get a little bit more

15:41

information on this NBA scandal that is rocking

15:43

the entire sports world Hell

15:46

yeah, ladies and gentlemen senior insider for

15:48

the NBA at the athletic The

15:52

stadium fandal TV, but

15:54

he's a wildly handsome individual

16:00

Can you hear me? Yeah, can you hear me?

16:02

Can you hear me? Did you hear the pop? People just

16:04

made noise for you, Sean. You got a little pop. Yeah,

16:06

I'll take it. I'll take it. I'll take

16:08

it. Give me the love. Give me the

16:10

love. Are you guys having soccer? This is the TBT for soccer.

16:12

Is that where you guys are at? That is the exact thing

16:14

what it is. Yeah,

16:17

TBT started the basketball tournament where they

16:19

put up a million for like teams

16:21

that were put together. And then the

16:23

soccer dudes from New York saw it

16:25

and they presented a pitch

16:27

basically saying soccer would be able to do this great, teamed

16:29

up with the TBT. So now they have

16:32

this every year. This one is a festival

16:34

dude. It is huge Sean. It really is. I'm

16:36

seeing JJ up there. I think I might have

16:38

to go with JJ. Well,

16:41

you didn't see the results from this morning. Sean, shut

16:43

up. I was about to say you

16:45

are. I was about to agree with Pat that you're

16:47

a pretty good looking human being. I'll give you that.

16:49

Yeah, he's super handsome. He always has

16:51

like the perfect camera angle too. Yeah, the

16:53

lighting is phenomenal wherever you are. We've

16:56

come a long way. We've come a long way. I

16:58

was in the cave four years ago. Yeah, but the

17:00

angle was always good. My mom's spaceship. And the beer

17:03

you came up with. All right, let's

17:05

talk about what kitchen. Okay. Shout

17:07

out to your mom's kitchen and lunch. As we know,

17:09

you have a deep history with all that. Let's talk

17:11

about the NBA. You guys are trying to ruin sports.

17:13

Holy shit. Another goal for a team. Sorry Sean. Magic

17:15

just happened. Electricity just happened. A goal

17:17

was scored. And then just he just did a

17:19

lot more goals than an actual soccer, which is

17:22

good. The

17:28

NBA is trying to ruin the sports world right

17:30

now. We got players just gambling on themselves, getting

17:32

into debt, almost losing arms. What the hell is

17:34

going on with John T. Porter

17:36

and the entire situation there? And what is that?

17:38

I'm silver saying to the rest of the league.

17:40

I assume there's some sort of mandatory meetings happening

17:43

right now for everybody. There's

17:45

always mandatory meetings when it comes to this issue.

17:47

When it comes to sports

17:49

betting, when you're a player, I mean,

17:51

you're just not, you're just not allowed

17:53

to bet on NBA games. WNBA games.

17:55

G League games. If you're an NBA

17:57

player or G League player or WNBA.

18:00

And to me the messaging that Adam

18:02

Silver got across when John T. Porter got

18:04

suspended for life He got banned for life

18:06

We talked about this a while ago and

18:09

that was the message the only message that

18:11

really truly need to be delivered where if

18:13

you Get caught if you're part of these

18:15

things Transgression that is the

18:18

law that is what that is gonna

18:20

happen And I think that was the

18:22

strongest healthy we've seen across pro sports

18:24

in the NFL I know you know

18:26

guys get suspended you I mean specifically

18:28

what 12 games 14

18:30

games and a lot of them get their

18:32

suspensions reduced six games four games So

18:35

it's a little bit less strict for sure in the

18:37

NFL where you saw Adam Silver come out and

18:39

and right within a few weeks of

18:42

that investigation Giving out a

18:44

lifetime ban to John T. Porter. So that's

18:46

the only message I saw what

18:48

what came out believed in the DOJ

18:50

and in the federal investigations

18:53

about Potential

18:55

person that was it's such an intermediary

18:57

for John T. Porter in the scandal

18:59

getting arrested I think it was with $80,000

19:01

in checks Trying

19:05

to plead. Oh, yeah, you're trying to get the hell out of the

19:07

country It's straight

19:09

out of a movie. Maybe there will be a movie about

19:11

this one day I mean there probably should be but we

19:14

haven't seen a Suspension the the way

19:16

that we saw with John T. Porter and to

19:18

me they can have as many meetings as they

19:20

want the nvpa Can have as many

19:23

meetings they want with the players and obviously this

19:25

issue being a heightened one across

19:27

because of the sports gaming but This

19:30

the lifetime ban with all the message that

19:32

yeah, I can't ruin sports. Let's tighten up.

19:34

Yeah, okay We can't have it. We can't

19:36

have guys Missing three-point shots on purpose so

19:39

that somebody else can win a bunch of

19:41

money because then people are gonna think immediately

19:43

Oh, they're not just missing three point shots

19:45

It's everything like everything that's going

19:47

on is all of a sudden a work You

19:49

know people are so think it is it's a

19:51

full-on war that can happen You know, like they

19:53

already had to battle that Tim Donohue shit. That

19:56

was big. You know, everybody just immediate was like

19:59

That's what it is And then all the other refs that

20:01

are good refs are like, no, no, no, it's not. And the

20:03

NBA has fought that, fought that, fought that, fought that, fought that.

20:05

I feel like, oh yeah, they just signed a $78 million. Another

20:09

goal has been scored for the same team that has scored

20:11

all the goals before. They

20:13

just signed a $78 billion deal, licensing

20:16

deal with ESPN, Amazon

20:18

and NBC. Goodbye Turner.

20:20

We got one more year inside the NBA. Charles

20:22

Barkley and the boys got to figure that whole

20:25

thing out. But it's like, it's a credibility issue

20:27

potentially at some point for all sports. And obviously

20:29

in this case, NBA. Well, integrity has been

20:31

the biggest thing that was in the statement

20:33

that Adam Silver made clear when they suspended

20:35

Gautier Porter for life. But I mean, think

20:38

about in the NFL, what Calvin Ridley was

20:40

suspended a season, I think. So there's a

20:43

stark difference when you think about how the NBA

20:45

and what they handed out in that situation compared

20:47

to what we've seen in the NFL. But

20:50

yeah, I mean, there's there's a no tolerance policy. Adam

20:52

Silver has made that clear. There's

20:54

there's a clear separation. When

20:56

you're an NBA player, W.M. player, Julie, for

20:58

you're not betting on those games. You literally

21:00

not allow all athletes to get caught. You're

21:03

done. All athletes know that it's legitimate. Like

21:05

you're kind of taught that at the very

21:07

beginning. So this dude probably has a massive

21:09

gambling addiction for sure. That

21:11

is certainly part of the problem, which, you know, hopefully

21:13

gets help. But also like, buddy, come on, you would

21:16

have been great whenever you retired. You were learned even

21:18

more about the baseball player guy goes over 25 on

21:20

bets on teams that he was

21:22

a part of. That was yesterday. That

21:25

was yesterday's news. And then now it's like better

21:27

prosecutors say this guy was, yep, certainly trying to

21:29

miss threes. $80,000 in checks. We

21:33

need to add to Australia. That's straight out

21:35

of a movie. Pat, we need a movie.

21:37

You might have to. You might have. No,

21:39

no, no, no. I am not a movie

21:41

maker. I'm sure somebody would do a great

21:43

job. Probably this guy. JJ Watt has a

21:45

question for you, Sean, who you were trying

21:47

to suck up to earlier today. Yes, obviously.

21:50

We did. What's up, JJ? I'm so cute,

21:52

John. You get it. All right. Okay,

21:54

John. John, let him ask the question.

21:56

Sean, we've been here at a soccer

21:59

tournament. So obviously. We're not completely in

22:01

the know I do follow up on my

22:03

fellow JJ's. Where do we stand JJ? Redick

22:05

Lakers? What's what's the deal? Yeah,

22:08

I had a story yesterday in the

22:11

athletic. I reported and you know, what's

22:13

big actually said this I think on May 24th I

22:15

said this a week and a half ago on JJ

22:19

Reddick Was a part one or

22:21

four the Lakers head coach Obviously the

22:24

biggest job when you think

22:26

about right we're definitely in the with the

22:28

Lakers one of the top jobs And pro

22:30

sports when the highest profile job in pro

22:32

sports, especially in the NBA But the

22:35

Lakers have been going through their coaching search It's

22:37

really been focused over the last couple weeks on

22:39

JJ Reddick and James Barrego for what I'm told

22:41

But I reported yesterday athletic the

22:44

Lakers have been zeroing in on JJ Reddick

22:46

as the front runner For the

22:48

job and the police around the NBA has been

22:50

at least in the last few days in

22:52

the last week that any Any

22:54

announcement anything will come after the finals

22:56

need obviously a color commentator For

22:59

the NBA finals But

23:01

he was the first coach to meet face to

23:03

face with the Lakers. They've had other meetings as

23:05

well James Barrego has been the other

23:07

person that that has met with them person

23:10

multiple times Telegans associated coach someone

23:12

that Anthony Davis for his part

23:16

Is fond of has a report a

23:18

report with and they kind of overlapped

23:20

in New Orleans over a decade ago And I think

23:22

his break has been a part of this search and

23:25

it's still I think going to be a part of

23:27

this search But from what I'm told

23:29

what I've reported what I said a week

23:31

and a half ago this time I just put

23:33

it in print but JJ Reddick has has emerged

23:35

himself as Uh, you know

23:38

the front runner for this job. Imagine

23:40

if he got the job kept the

23:42

podcast going. Oh coach player podcast. Whoa

23:45

With LeBron, that would be wild. Do you think it

23:47

was an entire year long? Interview that's

23:49

why they did that podcast the podcast was the

23:51

interview like some inception like yeah, but they're saying

23:54

LeBron has no say in anything Okay, yeah, he

23:56

actually said JJ what are you running? Yeah in

23:58

this particular What are

24:00

you? Okay! Ted, I will say the Lakers

24:02

have been really infatuated with JJ Redick. They

24:04

view him- They cut to the podcast? When

24:07

you're hiring- I mean, that might have

24:09

played a part. I'm not- No shit!

24:11

To say- To say you're not evaluating

24:13

his IQ and how he speaks and-

24:16

Listen, JJ does a great- I mean, just

24:18

following his career from a media perspective, obviously

24:21

he's- A lot of respect for what he's

24:23

built and what he's done. But when you

24:25

see someone speak the way he does, has

24:27

the relationship with the players, you know, you're

24:29

gonna take notes. And this is not the

24:31

only job JJ Redick has interviewed for, has

24:34

been in place for. He interviewed for the Charlotte

24:36

Hornets job before they went and hired

24:38

Charles Lee. And he was a prominent part of

24:41

that coaching search as well. And he's been making

24:43

it clear over the last year that

24:45

he wants to coach. And he wants to

24:47

coach bad. He said it publicly, privately as

24:49

well. And for JJ Redick, you think about

24:51

this Lakers job, it's high profile. You have

24:53

LeBron James, you have Anthony Davis, and you

24:56

have a supporting cast that's in flux. We

24:58

don't know who's gonna be back, what the

25:00

group is exactly gonna look like. So exactly

25:02

when he takes over, how involved he's gonna

25:04

be, you know, if he does get the

25:06

job, that's gonna be very interesting to see too.

25:08

Because game start of the NBA Finals, I think it's

25:10

June 23rd. So there's a way

25:12

away- We got time here. Yeah, that thing's gonna start

25:15

for a while, either. I mean, it's been a couple

25:17

of long days. You know, hiring a coach the week

25:19

of the NBA draft or the week of Ph.D. There's

25:22

gonna be a lot in the Lakers offices coming

25:25

up over the next few weeks. Hey, that was good journalism,

25:27

JJ. That was a good question. Look what we got. We

25:29

got a full thing. You know, JJ Redick went to Duke.

25:31

I haven't seen a single person wearing any Duke stuff around

25:33

here. Hey, haters. So

25:36

people like wonder like, oh, big people are

25:38

hated nationally. It's like, nope, they're hating Leslie, too.

25:40

Yeah, I think they are hated. I've

25:43

seen a lot of cold stuff, which does look a

25:45

little Duke-like. Yeah, when you look at it. Yeah, I

25:47

do appreciate the Colts fans that are here. But

25:49

I've seen- they said this is NC State country.

25:52

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

26:00

Wolfpack game door head coach of the wolfpack my D

26:02

coordinator in college Tony Gibson defensive coordinator for the wolfpack

26:04

guy who recruited me to West Virginia, I mean, it's

26:06

like a meeting of the power look at that They've

26:08

been there a long time to the culture said it

26:10

like why not why not NC State? Condomans

26:12

got a question for you Shawn's as we get distracted

26:15

and beautiful care you're been a carry North Carolina Shawn's

26:18

I've never been that I've been to Charlotte. I've

26:20

been to Charlotte. I can't I Can't

26:26

say I've been Apple Hill You

26:28

know, okay, I've never been a Chapel Hill. That's

26:30

all my bucket list Thank you. That's right. Just

26:32

during me the carry North Carolina has the greatest

26:34

grass that I've ever seen in my entire life

26:37

It feels like you're running on a foam pad

26:39

out there. It is beautiful. Good time, man Yes,

26:41

I have to ask you a team USA beat

26:43

some other shitty country at basketball by 55 points

26:48

98 98 points. Oh, yeah, they only scored 58 points.

26:51

They won by 90 plus points 98

26:54

points. I think I think it was one fifty six. I have 54 Part

26:57

no one the other way 154 to 50 Yeah,

27:01

believe USA we beat beliefs by 98. I think

27:03

yeah No,

27:06

it's real basketball Gold

27:09

medal basketball clearly you don't know You 18

27:13

yeah the u18 team is this kid

27:15

just the next Edie at Purdue and is

27:18

the future bright because it does seem

27:20

as though the NBA draft

27:22

is Possibly the worst group

27:24

or crop of hyped-up athletes that we've

27:26

had in the NBA question time. Thanks

27:30

I mean to us days always, you know the

27:32

way that they're developing the players you you 16

27:34

you 17 you 18 I'm

27:36

not surprised to see this and in

27:38

BC this summer the team that we're

27:41

gonna see at the Olympics Representing

27:44

the 2024 Paris Olympics. We've

27:47

been talking about it for months now. It's

27:49

a star-studded group LeBron James Steph

27:51

Curry Kevin Durant Anthony

27:54

Edwards I read

27:56

I mean it's how Burton

27:58

shout out Indiana Anthony Davis,

28:01

Bam out of bio, Luca

28:03

Garza, this group. How does that team

28:05

lose? Like, a donor fan. Our

28:08

U18's won by a... Kevin Brand had said it

28:10

publicly, they're trying to win like this. We

28:14

just saw their win by 90 points,

28:16

that's what they're trying to do at the Olympics

28:18

this summer. So, I'm not surprised by

28:21

this, I wonder if it's some foreshadowing for what this

28:23

team USA, the Olympic team is going to try to

28:25

accomplish. What an ass beating. Awesome. Could you imagine going

28:27

back to Belize and just dribbling a basketball? Are you

28:29

allowed back? I

28:32

might quit up on Belize at that point, you have

28:34

to have a mercy rule at that point, right? They

28:37

scored 54, so they did understand the game. You

28:41

know, like they knew ball in

28:43

who, you know? How to get

28:45

points. Normally in those high school

28:47

games, or lower level college games,

28:49

when a team wins by 100, that

28:51

team doesn't actually know the sport, they're just kind of rolling it

28:54

out there to do their thing. Once again, not the winning team's

28:56

fault. No. At

28:58

all. Never is. Have to kill him. But

29:00

this, they scored 54, I didn't expect that. That's like

29:02

a little bit of a bucket getter somewhere over there.

29:04

Yeah, a little bit of a high outstanding offense, and

29:06

then obviously when we got this string bean that's going

29:08

to Purdue, just, you know, eating glass, I mean... He's

29:12

the next 80 I heard, he's going to be gnawing

29:14

on the Iowa Hawkeyes. Uh oh. I

29:17

doubt it, I mean he's going to have to probably gain

29:19

about 85 to 100 pounds before he really wants to, you

29:21

know, get ready for that physical Big 10 basketball. But hey,

29:23

we got another guy. The USA's got another guy, so that's

29:25

what I'm excited for. But let's pump the brakes on, hey,

29:28

he's about to run the Big 10 this time. Yeah,

29:30

okay, okay. AJ has a question

29:32

for you, Sean. Hey, Sean, who is actually our

29:34

competition this year in the Olympics? Do

29:36

we have any team that can't compete? And how are we

29:38

going to like, how are we going to massage the egos

29:41

of everybody when it comes to playing time and starting and

29:43

all that? I know that's always a thing when it comes

29:45

to these so-called dream teams. Yeah,

29:47

two teams right off the top of my head

29:49

are France. I think Spain,

29:52

you can never count out. Spain is

29:54

always rock solid, always has guys, has

29:56

veterans. But France is one that

29:58

I'm very interested in. You have

30:01

Mick Pizzou, you have Rudy Gobert,

30:03

you have Victor Wamaniamo, Victor Wamaniamo

30:05

being on that Olympic team. That

30:08

team to me has some potential to

30:10

be scary. Canada as

30:12

well. Don't sleep on Canada. Oh, Canada. Don't

30:15

sleep on them. Chegils Alexander,

30:18

Jamal Murray potentially, Andrew Wiggins

30:20

potentially. They've got some

30:22

bodies there in Canada. We saw

30:24

what Chegils Alexander did this season.

30:26

Jamal Murray to me, he's never

30:28

been an All-Star. Never been an

30:30

All-NBA player. But there's not a better

30:33

player when the lights are on bright.

30:36

He's one of the best ones when it comes to

30:38

playoff time, when it comes to meaningful moments. So

30:40

I'm very curious about that Canadian national team along

30:42

with France. I think those two are the ones

30:45

that I got my eye on. Spain is always

30:47

solid. And as far as egos, AJ,

30:49

you're definitely right because Anthony Edwards, I've said

30:51

this already, but like Anthony Edwards is not

30:54

going to the USA basketball team just to

30:56

sit on the bench or to be the

30:58

sixth man. He's going to USA training

31:00

camp to win a starting spot and be

31:02

a starter on the national team. I

31:06

can't wait to see if Anthony Edwards is able to be

31:08

our starter. We would like him to represent the United States

31:10

of America out there. We better win by 90 now that

31:12

I know it's possible in modern day, even if a team

31:14

scores 54. Hey man. Sean, while

31:16

you were talking, you have no idea. There's a little bit

31:18

of a, a little bit of a do out here.

31:20

I'm a little scuffle. I keep getting excited that

31:22

they're chanting for me and cheering for me. But

31:24

I know it's a fight. These goals. It was

31:27

a fight. These goals that are being scored, fights.

31:29

I don't know what's going on. Sean's one guy

31:31

went down. He was in a heap

31:33

of pain. I mean, you never know what's real at

31:35

these things. I was better. It's really hard. We

31:37

don't cheer for injuries now. We never would, but

31:40

there was a full on benches

31:42

almost cleared. Just a few moments. We almost had

31:44

some real good TV. Yeah. I

31:46

just want to know how come we didn't get, we got a

31:48

yellow card. We had seven on a field. These guys had 10

31:50

guys on the field ready to fight each other. Why are we,

31:52

we get attacked here. Kind of just letting them do whatever the

31:55

hell they want. It has to be masked. It seems like the

31:57

other team didn't want to fight like you guys did. Okay. You

31:59

see what I'm saying? We was a little bit of

32:01

a anyway. What's next for you Shawn's what news

32:03

should we know about? Well,

32:06

I'm gonna be in Boston for the

32:08

NBA finals. That's next tomorrow. That's my

32:10

night tomorrow game one Game

32:13

two is Sunday then the series goes

32:15

to Dallas. I'm excited for the finals

32:17

Like I think Boston has been the

32:19

primitive favorite. They're the ones who have

32:21

the champer bus expectations right now They

32:24

know Al Horford said it after they swept Indiana

32:26

the players know it whether they want to say

32:28

probably what they wanted to know Privately, this

32:30

is the championship for bus season for the South. They've

32:32

been primed. They've been pressed over getting ready It

32:35

really feels like it's their time. The only problem

32:37

is you have Dallas in their way You

32:40

have Luca Doncic who's arguably the best player

32:42

in the league yet Kyrie Irving who is

32:44

is finally playing At that

32:47

place that we saw him in Cleveland where he's comfortable.

32:49

He's happy. He's healthy He's

32:52

in it like this team the camaraderie the

32:54

chemistry that this Mavericks team has I

32:57

think you can make a case that they're the they're

32:59

the closest team going in the league right now

33:01

And it's no secret that the relationship

33:03

between Kyrie Irving and Luca Doncic has played

33:05

a big part in that They've become like

33:07

brothers and shout out Kyrie Irving. I reported

33:09

yesterday His first signature

33:11

athlete for his answer shoe deal is

33:14

his dad Drederick Irving. So pretty cool

33:16

story first player people sport What's the

33:18

name of it? And uh, and uh,

33:20

what is he started a company? Anta

33:23

is a Chinese sportswear company. Whoa

33:26

They're named so mostly shoes. Clay

33:28

Thompson is the player that they endorse

33:31

as well. All right, I read No,

33:34

he's got a bunch of Purple

33:37

yellow blue Okay,

33:39

they're gonna be great shoes. I assume his

33:42

dad's gonna hoop with him The

33:44

Drederick Irving's one ones will hit

33:46

footlocker stores in September. So Yeah,

33:50

I'm buying those yeah, I know where they're

33:52

made but a lot of other stuff is too and

33:54

I'm gonna put them on Yeah, still use my iPhone

33:56

and I'm going to have I'm though. There's

33:58

a lot of things. I mean There's a scarf falling

34:00

off the front of the desk. Yeah, at Gaffer State, we

34:02

kinda knew it wasn't gonna hold. Yeah, I would've, I would've

34:05

big-ass both of them. If we're having

34:07

a conversation we just had. Yo, BC, who do you have?

34:09

Who do you have in the finals, Boston? Okay.

34:12

BC, come on, BC. Who do you, who

34:14

you got? All right, Sean, we ask you

34:16

the question, Sean. Also, it should be interesting,

34:18

Sean, because a little bit of drama surrounding

34:20

you guys, I believe it was your co-host,

34:22

Chandler Parsons, basically said like, hey, Chris asked

34:24

for Zingus, and Luke and Dontchits do not

34:26

like each other. Luke and Dontchits came out

34:29

and said like that, bullshit. I've talked to him

34:31

twice in my life, so is it kinda awkward on set

34:33

right now? Is that kinda changing how you guys are gonna

34:35

cover the finals? Yeah, and did you retweet that when Chandler

34:37

Parsons was like, yeah, this is a matter of fact, and

34:39

did you jump in? Absolutely,

34:42

no issues on either side. Luke

34:44

and Dontchits can obviously say whatever

34:46

he wants to say, can respond

34:48

exactly how he wants to respond.

34:50

Chandler Parsons obviously is entitled to

34:53

his own thoughts and his own

34:55

reporting. It's true, it's true, it's

34:57

true. Really

34:59

deep ties to Dallas, I will

35:02

say. But on the

35:04

running back set, there is not any

35:06

tension there. It's like, we know it's

35:08

a fun and loose environment. Hell yeah,

35:10

that's a good sense. And I

35:13

think, you know, the one thing is, Luke and

35:15

Dontchits and Chris Dontchits and Chris Dontchits have been

35:17

very vocal publicly, at least Chris Dontchits and Zingus

35:19

have, that it just did not work out from

35:22

a fit perspective. And from

35:24

a basalt perspective, clearly didn't work. I think it

35:26

was out for Zingus even said it yesterday, it

35:28

just didn't work when he was there. And that's

35:30

not to say that Luke and Dontchits

35:32

had anything personally, like he genuinely still

35:34

doesn't like it. I'm sure now they

35:36

haven't been teammates in the year. Dappy,

35:38

char her up. I'm sure they're cool

35:40

now. Yeah, obviously. We appreciate you, Sean,

35:43

doing all the journalism that we can't

35:45

do. Next time you're gonna have to

35:47

get down here to Cary, North Carolina, enjoy this with us. I'm

35:50

down, and honestly, we should just play. Why don't

35:52

we just get in there? Why don't we do

35:54

our own turn? We are a basketball talker at

35:57

the Thunderdome. We should do a tournament, a three-on-three

35:59

tournament at the Thunderdome. Oh, you're right. Maybe

36:01

with salaries with honor. You good? Maybe

36:04

some play basketball. I'm sure you're good.

36:06

Shumps. I'm not I'm sure

36:08

we're in the studio putting up some J's

36:10

I had a couple air balls If

36:14

you live in a painting that's on everyone move the

36:16

stick still has the workshop of all time All

36:19

right, we appreciate you. Ladies and gentlemen, also I Good

36:25

journalism bias. I feel like we really got things

36:27

accomplished. What do we learn? Uh, yeah, Adam silver

36:29

wasn't happy with that John $80,000

36:33

in checks and different than Ridley though. It really

36:35

is really wasn't betting on he wasn't throwing games

36:37

and he was I are Yeah, he

36:40

wasn't betting against his own team or throwing games that

36:42

would affect the rest of the day I didn't see

36:44

him kind of take a shot at the NFL and

36:46

he's like in the NBA We don't mess around apples

36:48

to apple. It didn't take that shot. You're right Yeah,

36:50

but I agree like if you're betting on your team

36:52

to win I mean what it's very not gonna obviously

36:54

how do you screw that I can't do any of

36:56

it But it's very different if someone is throwing a

36:58

game versus betting on some other team or your team

37:00

to win. Yeah JJ I don't know if we got a chance

37:03

to chat with you about this. So Isaiah

37:05

was an Isaiah for the coat. Yeah, yeah,

37:07

they Rogers was betting on the Colts right

37:09

while playing for the court Right not I

37:11

are on the team betting on the course

37:14

He gets a your suspension picked off the

37:17

Colts like explosive for us good player very

37:19

bummed out about it Yeah, and

37:21

as soon as it got brought up I'm like we

37:23

need to know if he's betting on the Colts or

37:25

against the Colts Yeah, like I think there's a lot

37:27

there's a chance that like, you know, some of these

37:29

people are like This son of a

37:32

bitch bet on his own team and it's like

37:34

yet for it or against it Yeah information that

37:36

I think should in deserves to kind of get

37:38

brought up. Yeah, you can't bet period I get

37:40

it. No, nothing should be a promise for all

37:42

of it But if you're betting

37:44

on your own team, what are you gonna do run

37:46

harder like tackle more? Yeah, no shit That's what you're trying

37:49

to do the whole time. Yeah, if you're betting against

37:51

team, we should know that Now speaking

37:53

of teams and stuff you want to get in I do

37:55

I'm hot That

37:59

was also kind of the people's right was like

38:01

hey you won't let me get in but I

38:03

wasn't I was betting on the red the way

38:06

because they were so good I mean I'm not

38:08

trying to

38:11

put the shorts I gotta wear something home I mean you got

38:13

38:30

this look

38:47

it's recovery okay so now that we're doing

38:49

Kevin Hart shit here okay

38:51

I would like to do a quick

38:54

interview with you how do you feel at the face

38:56

of the city of Houston and Houston

38:58

Texans more specifically that CJ

39:00

Stroud is just out here

39:03

on a chitty chatter tour sawing

39:05

down there all their quarterbacks on the team

39:07

talking is shit dumping on the cold you

39:09

guys we want by the way I love

39:12

CJ Stroud I think we all love CJ

39:14

Stroud but there's a lot of people saying

39:16

CJ Stroud's doing a lot of talking right

39:18

now how do you feel about this and

39:20

what are your thoughts on the entire thing

39:23

I don't mind it as long as you back it up that's

39:25

how it always goes sports are backing it up I mean talking

39:28

on the colds he beat the colds so we

39:30

won the division we beat the colds you

39:32

guys are a lot of chirping you win

39:34

one hundred hundred say it yeah so but

39:37

I mean I think that's competitors

39:40

especially once you start to I mean I've

39:42

been in that situation before you know during

39:44

my career you put yourself out there a

39:46

lot you're welcoming feedback onto yourself then

39:48

you have to go out there and perform and sometimes

39:51

it makes you perform even better your

39:54

toes aren't really gold Wisconsin Lake this

39:56

is nothing You're

40:00

like a super cold top dog. I love that.

40:02

That's my favorite boy. I'm in trouble right now

40:05

Bottom half of my legs right now are feeling

40:07

like that kingly thing like whenever your leg falls

40:09

asleep Oh, yeah, I feel like I'm getting stabbed

40:11

right now in the goddamn foot How are they

40:13

after the game like immediately after the game? Are

40:16

you are you walking around cramping or the dogs

40:18

were good the feet were good the legs felt

40:20

good I sat down up in the team corral

40:22

the players village. Yep top to get

40:24

back up. How many minutes did you play? I think

40:26

five same here. So I was talking to my wife.

40:28

She's she's flying in today They start

40:30

up tomorrow, but I was talking to her and

40:32

I was like man. I'm so tired I'm so

40:34

sore like and I told myself well Yeah, you

40:36

just played a soccer game, and then I told

40:39

myself well. No I played five minutes, and I

40:41

was dead gas Yeah,

40:44

that's on grass We

40:47

warmed up hard. I'm gonna say that going

40:49

into the second game I will not be

40:51

warming up nearly as hard as I'm warmed

40:53

up for the first I'm gonna be doing

40:55

intermittent here. You know here because of

40:57

what was happening there better for the life You were

41:00

talking shit during the warm-up you were saying uh listen

41:02

what this guy says he comes up to me He

41:04

goes our team's doing a Premier League warm-up. So oh

41:07

That's for me. You know what our team was doing Jumping

41:10

Jack. No, we're chilling because we knew we

41:12

had another 30 minutes on the field to do a one There's

41:16

a lot of war on top. I didn't want to lose my stuff

41:18

You think you used to text in stock this year you think you

41:20

know you think they're able to back it up after doing what? CJ

41:23

shots doing a lot of talking obviously he has a lot

41:25

of confidence to me kill Ryan's another year as a head

41:27

coach Hey, you tip me over in this barrel. I will

41:29

lose my shit. We got some I'm in

41:31

a real vulnerable position We

41:34

got mixing down there. We made a lot of moves

41:36

like are you projecting like this the greatest here in

41:38

the history of Houston, Texas? I

41:41

mean I think when you look at the roster construction

41:43

when you look at the meet going what he was

41:45

able to do last year In his first year, and

41:47

then you give him another full offseason with this group

41:49

and the people they've added to it I

41:51

think that the expectations are very

41:54

very high for this group Then

41:57

you're gonna. I also got how difficult the NFL is. Why are you doing all

41:59

the bullshit? like you're gonna play maybe not play

42:02

I mean I answered one question about it as

42:04

my charity softball yeah but I think this would

42:06

be the last year yeah it's

42:09

the truth so you're definitely what no I

42:11

didn't say that I just said I'm this

42:13

is the last I also don't know if

42:15

that's like I I'm training I'm training I

42:17

right now I train I wait four days

42:20

a week and cardio three three days a

42:22

week are you still doing the exact same

42:24

football workout I'm not doing the exact

42:26

same but I've realized it's been very very hard for

42:28

me let it go so it is very similar yes

42:30

my workouts are extremely similar I'm just trying to

42:32

figure out how to how to let

42:35

it let it go and how to transition into like

42:37

I've told you before I want to walk

42:40

into a room and know I can beat the

42:42

shit out of anybody in that room I don't

42:44

want to let that go how do you feel

42:46

right now it with my legs in a barrel

42:49

not great you are so big and the only

42:51

issue with all the hype and expectation for the

42:53

Houston Texans is there's one team that's still playing

42:55

football yeah well the Packers a lot of people

42:57

actually they're saying hey Packers

43:00

Texans suitable but does that worry you

43:02

because going into last year it was

43:05

like hey the Texans are gonna think this year it's gonna take them

43:07

a couple more years before they actually get

43:09

ready and now like the expectations going in it kind

43:12

of is Super Bowl bus I mean not a Super

43:14

Bowl or bust down the Houston you heard it I

43:17

think I personally think knowing D'Amico and

43:19

knowing him so well he is the

43:21

perfect person to handle a situation like

43:23

that because of how even keel and

43:26

calm he is I do

43:28

think they obviously have a bunch of young guys on that team they do

43:30

have a lot of young guys so but

43:32

a guy like D'Amico really does help level that

43:35

out and keep those guys in check because expectations

43:37

are very real thing and they can see the

43:39

locker all right you did hard knocks yep

43:42

okay you were a young lad that one

43:44

yeah we don't have to do the whole

43:46

song and dance right now we won't we

43:48

could okay this

43:51

is like 15 degrees cold yeah

43:53

40 10 toes down 40 percent I

43:55

22 will

44:02

power of fame game yeah you

44:05

hated your hard knocks experience because the Chicago Bears

44:07

have it this year yeah Chicago Bears have the

44:09

hard knocks a lot of rookies obviously Caleb Williams

44:11

a lot of hype is that something you think

44:13

is feasible to win with because I believe the

44:15

hard knocks curse is very real very rare the

44:17

mid-season hard knocks curse is still real and I

44:20

would assume the offseason one because it's the New

44:22

York Giants is gonna be viewed as one that's

44:24

potentially a curse as well you were a part

44:26

of it you became a superstar nothing oh yeah

44:28

you sleep in a quiver with a release so

44:30

cool you became an absolute superstar through that whole thing

44:32

but a lot of people just suck afterwards do you

44:34

think that is true or no I'll tell you the

44:37

hundred percent honest truth about hard knocks in my opinion

44:39

I've done it twice I did the training camp one

44:41

I did the in season one that's right the the

44:43

people who run hard knocks the camera people everybody they

44:45

do a fantastic job and they try as hard as

44:48

humanly possible to stay out of the way great people

44:50

there is no denying whatsoever that

44:52

there is a level of distraction that comes

44:54

with it everybody no matter who you are

44:56

when there's a camera and a boom or

44:58

a camera in the corner of every meeting room

45:01

all the time you are going to act a

45:03

little different no matter what no matter how hard

45:05

you try to act normal no hard and especially

45:08

when you have a full team in

45:10

training camp of guys trying to make the team

45:12

guys trying to make a name for themselves people

45:14

start to act a little different and you make

45:16

a bad play and you wonder oh shit is

45:18

that gonna be on hard knocks and now on

45:20

the next rep you might not try that move

45:22

or you might not try to improve yourself because

45:24

you just want to look good on hard knocks

45:27

and you don't want to have a bad rep on hard knocks yeah

45:29

you don't want to get exposed to ever so you're not

45:31

willing to probably not willing to try and push yourself

45:33

to the limits and I do think that's a small

45:35

factor in it is everybody wants to look good and

45:37

you're scared of looking bad yeah and I think at

45:39

training camp you're trying to find like kinship to camaraderie

45:41

yeah you're trying to figure out who's gonna be your

45:43

friend who's not gonna be your friend how we're gonna

45:46

get along what's the culture of this team gonna be

45:48

and if everybody's just being a fake ass version of

45:50

himself it's hard to find and then all of a

45:52

sudden you watch that first episode come out because it

45:54

comes out weekly by weekly which is incredible by the

45:56

way by those people but you

45:58

watch that first episode somebody's And

46:00

all of a sudden now that guy's got a few

46:02

more people talking to him at the dinner table the

46:04

next day You know like all of a sudden to

46:07

gravitate and towards trying to get some camera time I

46:09

mean, I think it's a really cool tool because we

46:11

learn about people trying to do some camera. Yeah Yeah,

46:13

I mean like you got the you got the undrafted

46:15

guys superstar It's been sitting by himself before the first

46:17

episode comes out all of a sudden now He's the

46:19

fan favorite and there's a couple more people having lunch

46:21

with you know, whoever he may be Yeah, we don't

46:23

want that guy on our team. Go ahead AJ Find

46:27

any coaches or front office or anyone else

46:29

like non players do what they act in differently

46:31

I would imagine as a coach you could look at as

46:33

a there's a lot of pressure on me that my message

46:35

like if I'm Addressing the team all of this is gonna

46:37

be analyzed by people. Yeah. No, I agree with that I

46:40

mean, obviously the coach being miked up all the time is

46:42

team messages, you know your team meetings and things like that

46:44

being I'll say this for myself. I

46:46

have one speech out there that I I sound like an

46:49

idiot like I hate it I'm just like I hate it That

46:54

part of me was like, you know, this speech is gonna

46:56

be on the internet and I hate that like I wish

46:58

I would have Just been my normal self What'd

47:01

you say it was the one where I was like

47:03

we're like we're a bunch of good-ass dudes But I'm

47:05

on the field. We have to be like badasses. Like

47:08

it was just it was stupid Yeah, when was it

47:10

right before the game? No, it was like after a

47:12

practice and we had a shitty practice So I was

47:14

trying to be motivational. It was it was every time

47:16

I'm sent it. I'm like Yeah,

47:19

like it just cringed at yourself I am so

47:21

uncomfortable. The Cardinals one was sweet on the sideline.

47:23

Maybe we're just better Yeah, the

47:25

Cardinals won the Cardinals when I had a much

47:27

better experience because a I learned from my first

47:29

experience B It was during the season And

47:32

I'm forever grateful for the Cardinals one because that

47:34

was the last stretch of my career and I

47:36

now have my son On you know, I now

47:38

have my last game on film I have my

47:40

last meetings on film and the video you watch

47:42

in the video that I made a tribute to

47:44

like that one actually Was incredible

47:47

That's why I say the people of hard knocks are

47:49

so good is because they're the same people that did

47:51

my last one and They made

47:53

sure they gave me every single piece of footage that

47:55

I now can show my son someday and that's really

47:57

quick question What was the reaction of the boys when

47:59

you gave? the good dudes bad guys it's

48:01

not great I mean yeah like especially looking

48:03

back now I'm like wow yeah that's no

48:06

wonder they weren't riled up after that one

48:08

you shithead anybody afterwards in the locker room

48:10

go probably not to me

48:12

but yeah probably behind like not to you

48:14

know I see that oh yeah they probably

48:17

that needs to immediately happen afterwards the echo

48:19

there's a bunch of little huddles here this

48:21

is hashtag United making their way on to

48:23

the pitch good luck out there boys good

48:26

luck out there boy good kids boy that's

48:28

good kid for hashtag United hashtag swagged

48:30

out tiger stripe where's hashtag United

48:32

from I was wondering that earlier

48:35

the internet okay I just want

48:37

to AI guys out there the pound but it doesn't feel

48:40

like how many good soccer players are here what's the deal

48:42

why is everybody so good how are you able to do

48:44

what you just did to I don't think I broke my

48:46

toe oh no is that on

48:48

that oh no we're good we're good I just I

48:50

realized you need to move a shot there hey oh

48:52

yeah I can stay down I got no choice OTAs

48:54

are currently happening right now were

48:57

you big OTA give it all you got

48:59

guy or yeah yeah yeah

49:02

I'm a big believer in you have to play

49:04

football to be better at football so I really

49:06

like not not the early portion I don't love

49:08

the workout portion because I like doing my own

49:10

workouts but the football portion I do believe it's

49:12

very important what was your percentage you missed because

49:15

you see Lamar Jackson just messed out on seven

49:17

hundred and fifty thousand dollars because he he's not

49:19

gonna be able to make it to 80% attendance

49:22

for offseason workouts now obviously that's a big number

49:25

San Jose thousands a lot of you got a

49:27

hundred six million guaranteed so everything's

49:29

in yeah in perspective and in

49:31

comparison of it all but did you

49:33

ever have any of those in yours

49:36

I assume you know no I generally

49:38

unless I was injured I was there because I also

49:40

my brother and I talked about it all the time

49:42

I mean you obviously are those are your guys like

49:44

the guys are gonna be out there practicing especially the

49:47

football portion playing football I like to be out there

49:49

and I like to try and work on my craft

49:51

to better my craft so I enjoyed

49:53

it Houston was very very hot during

49:55

OTA time very humid here The

50:00

cloud cover is nice. It

50:02

is. Well, they say it might be a big time rainstorm. What

50:06

do you think on the OTA possibly moving?

50:08

I'm curious to hear more players

50:10

thoughts on it because the public

50:12

sentiment that I've seen so far differs from my

50:14

personal thoughts. Okay, so Darius hates it. AJ I

50:16

think hates it as well. I

50:18

think there's been multiple people that have said they hate it.

50:20

Aaron Rodgers though, after he went

50:22

back to back during the COVID years, he actually

50:25

calls himself the COVID King or COVID MVP. Obviously

50:28

that is how he would describe that situation. And

50:30

there's a lot of other stuff that could go into it. They

50:32

started their ramp up here during COVID into the

50:34

season. And he said it was the best his

50:36

arm had felt because of there wasn't the whole

50:38

thing. So I think there's maybe some positions that

50:40

are like cool with it. But it sounds

50:43

like a lot of other positions that are actual

50:45

out there don't love everything about it. Yeah,

50:47

my thoughts are I don't like

50:49

the breakup how it is right now because I believe

50:52

guys go back home after the season. They start working

50:54

out with their own trainer. And then they're called back

50:56

into these workouts that are completely different with them, whatever

50:58

they've been doing. Then you play a little

51:00

bit of football and you take another break. Now, do

51:02

you keep doing the workouts you've been doing? Do you

51:04

go back to your trainer back home? Some guys go

51:06

on vacation and then you go right into training camp,

51:09

which right now, if you look at

51:11

it, I was talking to my homes that his

51:13

charity golf outing, I think he reports on like

51:15

July 16th or something for what? For

51:17

training camp today in his first year. That's

51:21

what I'm saying. I think that was it. Somebody

51:23

correct me if I'm wrong. But and then their first

51:25

game is like September 8th or 10th. Yeah, I

51:28

mean, that is a long time to

51:30

play football. No, that's what's wild to me. I

51:33

was like, are you guys in? He's like, no, we're just I have

51:35

to go back then. It's crazy to me

51:37

how long of a warm

51:39

up like a ramp up that is that already is the

51:41

ramp up. Now you want to add it's got to go

51:43

even earlier than that. You would imagine I know the whole

51:45

thing game is on August, August, like first. Yeah, for a

51:47

second. Yeah, those guys got to be what four weeks before

51:50

that. Yeah. That is the worst. Yeah.

51:55

If we're going to eliminate anything, let's eliminate the whole

51:57

thing. Let's put on like a

51:59

spectacle. Let's do fireworks, let's do entrances for

52:01

the Hall of Famers. Well, just preseason in general,

52:03

right? Like that's... Roger Goodell's gonna call for it.

52:05

How do you feel about preseason maybe getting run

52:08

out of town? Now there are people that are

52:10

going about for the undrafted guys, the seventh round

52:12

guys that use preseason games as an opportunity to

52:14

live their dream, JJ. Just like you were

52:16

able to do. For how many years? Damn.

52:20

Well, you got booed on Draft Night. Sure did.

52:22

But I agree. That's the biggest argument hands down

52:24

for preseason games is the undrafted guys, the young

52:26

guys trying to get a shot. But you take

52:28

it down to two, you let those guys play.

52:31

I mean, truthfully, some teams don't even have their

52:33

starters play at all anymore. Now,

52:35

do I think you do a fair trade one for

52:37

one, one preseason game for an 18th game? No.

52:40

Roger said that on our show. I mean, that's two.

52:42

He was like, yeah. That's nowhere near. You know, you

52:44

get rid of one game that is good for a

52:47

billion or two for us and then... Yep. Yeah,

52:50

we'll get rid of the $100,000. No problem at all. I

52:52

mean, there's many thoughts that I have on what you

52:54

should negotiate with and how you should do it. Oh,

52:57

you hate the NFLPA. I got a lot of questions as

52:59

well with the way they handle business, but that's on

53:02

cover for another day. See, I don't hate the NFLPA

53:04

at all. I think they're in a very difficult position

53:06

because of how large the player pool is, because how

53:08

the average career is three and a half years. So

53:10

I was a young guy once too. I didn't care

53:13

about that new CBA. I was like, just sign it

53:15

so I can play. We were locked out. I said,

53:17

just sign it so I can play. Now looking back,

53:20

I wish I had the knowledge and the experience

53:22

that I had to be like, no, you need

53:24

to be a collective group to make changes happen.

53:27

It's like everybody's opinion matters. Is there any way

53:29

for them to win either? No,

53:31

the only power players have is to sit out and strike. That's

53:33

the only power that you have. But you're never going to get

53:35

that out there because of the average career being three and

53:41

a half years. Yeah, there's so much. Yeah.

53:44

So I get it. I completely understand it. And like when

53:46

I was near the end of my career and we're on

53:48

some of those calls and I'm talking to the young guys,

53:50

they say, you've already done it. You've

53:52

made your money. You've had your fun.

53:55

Let us have ours. And I completely

53:57

understand that sediment because why should they trust me in that?

54:00

The group of us older guys is like if you

54:02

could only see into the future and look back now

54:04

like if you just took a second now and made

54:06

that change. But it's tough. Those

54:09

guys don't know. Why don't you handle the business?

54:11

JJ like to run Burnley. How are we? So

54:13

what is going on? What is going on with

54:15

Burnley? What do we got going on? We're

54:18

currently in the managerial search right now.

54:20

We're going through the process. You're interviewing

54:22

Gump? Yeah, Gump should be over time.

54:25

I have the short list and I have not seen Gump's

54:27

name on it. It could be an oversight. Who put the

54:29

list together? You said you've seen it. Of course you're the

54:31

owner. Do it perfect. Send it over. Send

54:34

over all the names. I have interviews are upcoming. Interviews are

54:36

upcoming. There's a process going through right now. I'll be in

54:38

the later stages. the job done?

54:40

A couple of the guys are here. A couple of the guys

54:42

are here. Yeah. A couple of the guys

54:44

are here. A couple of the guys are here. Where? Yes.

54:47

Where? Where? I

54:50

don't know. I think he's here tonight. Do you have

54:52

enough people on your team? You

55:02

just talked about how everybody has an

55:04

opinion and everything like that. I

55:06

think we're going to have to have a conversation with Concafe

55:08

about everybody having an opinion. See, that's what I told you

55:10

was going to happen, man. He said that immediately. JJ walks

55:12

up to our team, sees how many guys there are and

55:14

how good everybody is. He goes, you guys have issues. Everybody's

55:16

going to want to be able to feel. Literally

55:18

said that. That was the first thing out of

55:20

your mouth. I'm like, nah. That's why the morale is high. We

55:22

lose 4-1. Turns out all of a

55:24

sudden there's potential conversation. What were they saying? I

55:27

didn't overhear any of it, but I did hear a lot

55:29

of people potentially saying other people was worried to

55:31

play. I can tell. You got so many good

55:34

guys out there and there's 20 guys

55:36

on that team and there's only 20 minutes in the

55:39

game or in each half. It's hard to split that

55:41

up. I mean the thought was you can't have too

55:43

many good players. It seems

55:45

as though now. There's only seven on the

55:47

field, right? Yeah. Oh, yeah. One's

55:49

a keeper, so it's six. You got way too many. Way too

55:52

many. But they're good guys. So what are you going to do

55:54

tonight? Have you guys talked about your strategy for this evening? You'll

55:57

get into the later stages of the coach's interview for Burn.

56:00

I'll be in the later stages of the strategy conversation They

56:04

are at the hotel right now trying to figure it out. I

56:06

have been told I assume that Time

56:08

you'll allow this thing along. Yeah. Oh, yeah

56:10

speed better speak up to yes speed Speed

56:12

seemed to be a little bit more like

56:14

hey you guys speed needs ball. Yeah get

56:16

in the game speed That's something I'm trying

56:19

to tell our guys we got to shoot

56:21

the budget put the ball on the net

56:23

Tom Proven Yeah, always shoot it fire. Oh

56:25

fire away, man We

56:27

tried that today our goalie fired one up to me and I tried

56:29

to head it in that was the goal Yeah,

56:31

Kong Kefa had just put pressure the goal is

56:33

ready to always scored our goalie wasn't really goalie

56:36

though He's playing goalie target time his name's Steph.

56:38

He's a dog. He's a dog. He's our guy

56:40

He's got this mallet in a cannon in our

56:42

say like goalie. I mean he's awesome We're getting

56:44

out of here for first hour our two will

56:46

be on the other side. We can't be I

56:48

hear you Give me that absolute

56:52

five That's

56:54

the name of our team Kong Kefa SC We

56:56

are 0 and 1 currently in the soccer tournament

56:59

you lost to the reggae rovers this morning 4

57:02

to 1 it was 1 nothing and then

57:04

it became 3 nothing quick Then we got

57:06

into target scoring time which is electrifying. We

57:08

score a goal. It's 3-1. Yeah We

57:11

have an opportunity to be knocking on the door. It's

57:13

3-2. We don't we miss that they end up scoring

57:16

for one We lose another game tonight at 7 legs

57:18

feel okay life is good We are lucky

57:20

as hell to be in this city of

57:23

Kerry, North Carolina The toxic table

57:25

is here at Boston Connor and that's I

57:27

Schmidt gone, man Not a bad city here

57:29

in Kerry, North Carolina Not bad at all

57:31

and you know time mentioned there are bowjangles

57:33

everywhere We unfortunately didn't get some yesterday, but

57:35

we did visit a wonderful sheets that got

57:37

the job done on our trip home But

57:39

I mean it is nice to be out

57:41

here and Gopi said it. It

57:44

is a beautiful pitch truly beautiful You guys are

57:46

playing under the lights last night I'm excited to

57:48

see that tonight a nice little night game feels

57:50

a little different when the lights come on I

57:53

think we're in the actual stadium. I think oh

57:55

here we go. Yeah, now we're talking against Maddie

57:57

that man up in the Hawks That's is a

57:59

college financial champion, a Super Bowl

58:01

champion, the all-time leading tackle for the

58:04

Green Day Packers, AJ Hawker. Hawker, how

58:06

you doing? Is this your first soccer

58:08

tournament? Well, wait a minute. Hey,

58:11

crowd, there's Kevin. There we go. And they are saying

58:13

a name and they are mentioning proud. It is AJ

58:15

Hawker. AJ, you do a lot of soccer tournaments? No,

58:17

I have not. My daughter used to play soccer. She

58:19

does not anymore. She's in lacrosse. So my

58:22

first time in a long time at one of these things, but can

58:25

we grow this grass in the north? Could

58:27

we grow this grass in Indiana? What is

58:29

required? Yeah, what is this bent grass? What is

58:31

it? Bermuda? What do we call it? And I

58:34

know we've made quite, I love grass. People

58:36

know it. Sure. Smoke it, run on it, live

58:39

it. Grass is good. Grass

58:41

is a good thing. There is shit

58:43

and crop grass though. Oh yeah, outside the Thunderdome.

58:45

And then there is bingo. And then it was

58:47

like I was swinging with a weighted bat. Then

58:49

I got down to this grass and it's like

58:52

the best grass of all time. Exactly. If this

58:54

grass is available anywhere, they need

58:56

to be getting indoor stadiums in the NFL. You

58:58

need to be somehow figuring out how

59:00

do we, I mean, there was a guy, I'm not

59:03

going to say his actual name because who knows

59:05

what he's currently doing in college. I walked into

59:07

his house. I had no idea the false wall

59:09

on the other side. He had a full greenery.

59:11

So that was growing marijuana behind this wall. He

59:13

had the lighting and the electrics and the water

59:15

and the heat and the temperature and the humidity

59:17

and everything like figured out this kids in college.

59:20

You're telling me that these NFL teams couldn't

59:22

figure out the lighting and the grass and

59:24

the heating and the watering to have that

59:26

field in everything. People are sliding. It's not

59:28

even getting dug up at all. You're pulling

59:30

on it. You're moving on. It rained just yesterday. Massive

59:33

death. We were circling the area because this is the

59:35

greatest grass I've ever seen in my entire life. They

59:37

have to be able to figure it out to put

59:39

it in something. I feel like in AJ, I know

59:41

this is like we're going on

59:43

and on and on and on and on and on

59:45

and on and on about

59:48

this grass. But like playing a lot of different

59:50

sports that involve grass,

59:52

soccer, football, college,

59:55

NFL, as a youth, as a

59:57

youth, as I traveled around youth.

1:00:00

First shoot, maybe the greatest grass I've ever

1:00:02

seen in any sport. Better than golf course

1:00:04

grass as well. Yeah, okay, even golfing, yeah.

1:00:06

This is better grass than golfing. It's soft.

1:00:08

First thing I said when I walked down

1:00:11

these steps, I was like, geez, look at

1:00:13

these fields. This is perfect. I almost thought

1:00:15

for a second this was turf. It wasn't

1:00:17

even reef. But Penn State, actually,

1:00:19

that's a school that's somewhat in the north that

1:00:21

always had great, great grass. It was much different

1:00:23

than everywhere I was. They would

1:00:25

live and die for that. You know what they're doing.

1:00:28

They would walk right off of bridge

1:00:31

if they were told to. So

1:00:33

you don't think some people are told to make sure this grass

1:00:35

is the best they will do? That's

1:00:37

that loyalty that Penn State people have. Get you

1:00:40

into trouble some. This grass needs to be everywhere

1:00:42

time. Yeah, I agree. You know, it's one of

1:00:44

those things where the pitch

1:00:46

is just so beautiful and they also,

1:00:48

like Tottenham, the blueprints are out there.

1:00:50

So it's not like we have to

1:00:52

figure out, there are stadiums in the

1:00:54

world that have this kind of grass

1:00:56

that also do concerts and all that

1:00:58

other bullshit that NFL owners definitely want to

1:01:00

do. Like, yeah, sure, is it

1:01:03

expensive? But can you imagine if this grass was

1:01:05

in every stadium in the NFL? We'd never hear

1:01:07

any one bitch again. There'd be no... Well, there

1:01:09

was a big packers were pushing a big initiative.

1:01:11

It was the Green Bay Packers. Well, you know,

1:01:14

yeah, they had the Helix. No,

1:01:16

no, Bob Tiaras. Well, yeah. He was Green

1:01:18

Bay Packers legend. Yeah, for sure. And

1:01:21

I don't know what he's doing right now. But you know what?

1:01:24

If every NFL team actually did have grass, he might be

1:01:26

signed with the team. I don't think he currently is. But

1:01:28

yeah, that was a big thing. I mean, when the

1:01:30

Packers went and played the Giants in London, they

1:01:33

had to strip, like, the seam and the turf

1:01:35

right down the entire field. And I was like,

1:01:37

okay, well, we can't be doing this because we

1:01:39

see the pitch, you know, for the Premier League

1:01:42

when Tottenham is out here and when Arsenal is

1:01:44

playing and all these other teams, like, it's

1:01:47

doable. Okay, so maybe it's time we just get it done

1:01:49

because this grass is beautiful. They got it figured out here

1:01:51

in Cara, North Carolina. They do. They

1:01:53

figured out how about Jordan Love so quickly up

1:01:55

there. I know you're the all time leading

1:01:57

factor for the Green Bay Packers tie. You're an owner of the Green

1:01:59

Bay Packers. Jordan loves making some comments about

1:02:01

how he feels about the culture in the locker room. I

1:02:03

believe we have a video of it? Yep.

1:02:06

Perfect. I think last year it started off

1:02:08

and we came a lot closer. Just because

1:02:10

the university was. We went on a

1:02:12

season and we're making a run at the end there,

1:02:14

but coming into OT. There's

1:02:16

been so much energy in the building. Since

1:02:19

I've been here, I feel like the closest to

1:02:21

each other. And very often to see

1:02:23

the guys going out there. And

1:02:25

what we're talking about before is just having a fight here

1:02:27

right now. And it's been very cool. We

1:02:30

should still make a relationship and be closer to the

1:02:32

guys. And if you walk down to work, you can

1:02:34

see where they're going. So I think this team is

1:02:36

an awesome spot. He's

1:02:58

been there now. It makes sense because

1:03:01

as Jordan Love got drafted and Aaron

1:03:04

is kind of the order that near the end of

1:03:06

his career. It's green bay factor. They were certainly transitioning.

1:03:08

Sure. This is a little floor. You're the truth there.

1:03:10

The old guard was kind of getting, I don't want

1:03:12

to say run on it down, but certainly cut off

1:03:14

the team. And they just posted

1:03:16

a picture. I think it was Cobb,

1:03:18

Davante Adams. I think Bocciari still vacationing

1:03:20

together like that run. Mike McCarthy

1:03:22

era into that was long and very close. AJ, you

1:03:24

were a part of that. That was like a family,

1:03:26

right? That team was like an actual family. That's why

1:03:28

he has had so much success up there.

1:03:31

Absolutely. Closest thing that you can get

1:03:33

to like a college atmosphere was definitely there. My time in

1:03:35

green bay. So then that particular

1:03:37

team starts kind of getting phased out. Quarterback also

1:03:39

kind of getting forced out. That's the main thing.

1:03:41

Once the quarterback gets phased out, that's when it

1:03:43

gets weird. And you can

1:03:45

have a franchise that's just looking for leadership, looking

1:03:48

for something because you've been thinking about it. You

1:03:50

trusting Aaron. Every game I went into, we all

1:03:52

100% expected and thought we were going

1:03:54

to win because of Aaron. And there was a young

1:03:57

generation that was getting introduced to, oh, this is going

1:03:59

to be Jordan Lovesdale. some point. Aaron certainly go

1:04:01

we all have respect for him but there's

1:04:03

probably a little bit of this now it's

1:04:05

fully LeFlore fully Jordan love fully good to

1:04:07

come in fully a young nucleus that is

1:04:10

coming together and playing great ball already if

1:04:12

I was a Green Bay Packers fan and

1:04:15

I became one there for a couple

1:04:17

years sure six the midnight box City I could not

1:04:19

be more happy with everything I'm hearing even whenever he

1:04:21

got named the starter and everybody in the lock room

1:04:23

was coming out of nowhere saying this is the guy

1:04:25

yeah this is the guy it's felt like this thing's

1:04:27

day one seemingly with Jordan and now you guys got

1:04:29

another ten years of great quarterback love yeah hopefully

1:04:31

I mean obviously they said that they want to get

1:04:34

his contract done before training camp starts so that's kind

1:04:36

of the next how come it works for them huh

1:04:39

partner should they have the right system I mean

1:04:42

I don't know the grading system they've used is

1:04:44

going back how long how come it always works

1:04:46

like a family business in there basically did

1:04:48

you see who the Colts signed oh yeah we

1:04:50

want to Matt Ryan Phillip Rivers yeah Ryan Carson

1:04:53

wins I mean we were just searching

1:04:55

searching searching search we had a paid Manning

1:04:57

and Andrew luck okay we rolled the dice we

1:05:00

hit seven we got paid

1:05:02

uh-huh and obviously Andrew luck

1:05:04

retires because the injuries are also a fact he's

1:05:06

one of the smartest humans on earth and we

1:05:09

get into the roll the dice who's your quarterback

1:05:11

sweepstakes it's a long winding road to hell if

1:05:13

you have no idea who your quarterback is and

1:05:15

you guys literally go from Brett fart I don't

1:05:17

know how he's doing everything else yeah I think

1:05:19

good go football player they're gonna football I can

1:05:21

really spend a little really space especially for the

1:05:23

Packers yeah that's no alleged about it no no

1:05:26

there's no allegedly about it you threw that thing

1:05:28

a country mom that guy could spend in the

1:05:30

country in his genes in the muddy could spend

1:05:32

it let alone that's right in the NFL but

1:05:34

then you go to Aaron Rodgers who sits for

1:05:36

three think about Aaron Rodgers sitting for three years

1:05:38

in the modern day no way no no way

1:05:40

with that especially when you know AJ used to

1:05:42

talk talked about like when they would

1:05:44

see him in camp and stuff and he playing with the

1:05:46

scout team it was kind of like the Mahomes stuff where

1:05:49

it's like everyone else on the team seeing what he's doing

1:05:51

and it's like all right how much longer

1:05:53

is this guy can we go without like we have

1:05:55

to let this guy play he's that talented he's that

1:05:57

good but same deal just like nope here

1:06:00

he's still the guy like we kind of need to

1:06:02

just wait and it wasn't exactly like that with Jordan

1:06:04

Love and I in terms of the

1:06:06

Packers as a whole obviously the guys they're

1:06:08

drafting have immense talent you know Rogers a

1:06:10

lot of people saying hey he should have

1:06:12

been the first overall pick he falls in

1:06:14

you know after Alex Smith goes one same

1:06:16

with Jordan Love but there's just something to

1:06:19

being okay with pissing off your entire fan

1:06:21

base because that's what they did when they

1:06:23

drafted Rogers when they had Favre oh yeah

1:06:25

you had a reaction when they drafted Jordan

1:06:27

Love again and and you understand it because

1:06:29

they're the success they're having with two NFC championships

1:06:31

back-to-back it's like hey we just maybe need another

1:06:33

piece kind of get over the hump get over

1:06:35

the Super Bowl but they're okay with pissing off

1:06:38

all the fans and then you have like very

1:06:40

few teams have the opportunity where you have a

1:06:42

Hall of Fame quarterback in place and

1:06:44

you're the guy you draft gets to learn for three

1:06:47

years under that guy who and he already has a

1:06:49

little bit of skill so then the same thing happens

1:06:51

with Rogers I mean we remember what Jordan Love looked

1:06:53

like when those videos first came out all you're missing

1:06:55

a net Connor exactly insane I was starting to grab

1:06:58

you piss off Aaron you don't get better to

1:07:00

maybe get past the NFC championship and a guy

1:07:02

can't hit a 10 by 10 net exactly and then

1:07:04

he was hard not to say that thought it was

1:07:06

a very hard but then he's hit for three years

1:07:09

and then he has the year he had last year

1:07:11

and everyone's saying like yeah not only does he

1:07:13

have a massive ability but it was because he

1:07:15

got to sit behind a Hall of Fame quarterback and

1:07:17

learn from and I just in

1:07:19

the NFL today like teams obviously want to do that

1:07:21

but how many teams really have the patience to be

1:07:24

okay with doing that yeah

1:07:26

to be clear I

1:07:28

would not have been able to do it loudly I would

1:07:30

not have been able to be a GM to do it

1:07:32

because right there we get the NFC championship I won't get

1:07:34

to I won't win super hello and super bowl now we

1:07:37

got a thing for four years down the road oh you're

1:07:39

stupid and then they do it that's like this panic this

1:07:42

panic thing everybody's reaction

1:07:44

including my first 24 hours

1:07:46

is like this is the dumbest team

1:07:48

of all time so stupid it's gonna end up working

1:07:50

out for you think and they're gonna take a victory

1:07:53

life is Kirk gonna win MVP tears in a row

1:07:55

yeah move on no but Kirk wasn't even there yet

1:07:57

doesn't even know people in a living room in the

1:07:59

training room in the chef anywhere, doesn't know

1:08:01

really anything down there in Atlanta, just moving

1:08:03

back into a house down there. I mean,

1:08:05

there's a lot different from him and

1:08:08

Aaron Rodgers, but it's like, Pennis gets time to develop

1:08:10

and grow, and he ends up becoming a guy. It's

1:08:12

like, they will be able to take a victory lap

1:08:14

for the rest of their lives, no matter what you

1:08:16

thought on draft night or 24 hours afterwards. For sure.

1:08:18

But even like the luck situation when you're on the

1:08:20

team, like, let's say Peyton breaks his arm, as opposed

1:08:22

to like having the issues with the neck, and

1:08:25

you guys go 1 and 15 or whatever

1:08:27

and still get the first overall pick. Do

1:08:29

you think Ursay's still drafting luck if

1:08:32

Peyton has an injury like that, where he like breaks

1:08:34

an ankle, breaks a leg, breaks an arm, and it's

1:08:36

not like a neck type issue where, hey, we don't

1:08:38

know if he's going to be the same guy moving

1:08:40

forward? I don't think so. I think he's probably straight

1:08:43

out of there. Wouldn't everybody worry about the nerve like

1:08:45

regenerating that so he could throw and hold a ball?

1:08:47

That's the biggest reason I think that probably put it

1:08:49

over the top for Jim Arcek. And it was also

1:08:51

during the lockout, I think. Yeah, one of the only

1:08:53

quarterbacks to have that injury, right? Isn't that not really

1:08:55

a quarterback injury? Final fusion or whatever. Yeah, I don't

1:08:57

remember exactly what it was. I just remember walking into

1:08:59

training camp that year, and I guess I

1:09:02

had not been in contact with a lot of people. And

1:09:05

I was summoned to the training room, summoned

1:09:08

to the training room, and I go

1:09:10

down there, and they're like, he's in the back

1:09:12

or whatever. I'm like, all right, cool, cool, first day of training camp.

1:09:14

I open it up. Wire's just out

1:09:16

of pain. Just, he's attached to

1:09:18

every single stim that we have.

1:09:20

Aaron Burrill's in there. I'm

1:09:23

like, oh, yeah, okay, what do we got going? Because

1:09:25

it was real secretive going into the season and whether

1:09:27

or not his neck was okay. And they were like,

1:09:29

ahh, and I think we got one here. And then

1:09:32

all of a sudden, he misses that entire year. Then we

1:09:34

go to the lockout. He has to go over to Europe

1:09:36

to get some neck stuff. He has to get some other

1:09:38

spine stuff here. And then he can't feel his finger. Lockout,

1:09:40

you can't have conversation with anybody, right? That's front office one

1:09:42

a lot of times. And he was owed like $30 million

1:09:45

a week later. So Jim

1:09:47

Ercey's sitting there with a vape and whatever. Just

1:09:49

going like, what do we do? He

1:09:51

got Andrew Luck sitting right there, too.

1:09:54

That's a tough decision. I'm thankful they

1:09:56

did it. Tough decisions was something that

1:09:58

Bill Belichick was able to do. for

1:10:00

a long time Julian Edelman on his podcast

1:10:02

games with named Talked to Matt like Matt

1:10:05

like chit chat about Bill Belichick's obsession with

1:10:07

getting it right and learning from what you

1:10:09

did in the past Let's

1:10:11

say we're playing the Jets and

1:10:14

it's it's it's Monday afternoon So

1:10:17

we're playing a divisional game, right? It's

1:10:19

we're coming off a loss on the road and

1:10:23

You know, we were happy we have a

1:10:25

two key players on defensive wind down He'll

1:10:27

go back in his notes and do keyword

1:10:30

search or something and he'll find a scenario

1:10:32

that it mimics that almost to a T

1:10:34

And then he'll look and see how did I address the

1:10:36

team? Did I go hard on that? I take it easy

1:10:38

on them Did I push him and how hard did I

1:10:41

push him then we practice a certain way? What was the

1:10:43

outcome? How did it come out all

1:10:45

that stuff gets analyzed man? That's

1:10:47

the craziness in the complexity

1:10:49

that a lot of people don't realize I don't

1:10:51

know how much that weighs in his

1:10:53

success or whatever else, but that's who we hey, how

1:10:55

about the delivery? So there are a lot of different

1:10:57

things there and notes and also being able to coach

1:11:00

long enough that you have a scenario from

1:11:02

your past That

1:11:04

equals what played a divisional opponent. We lost on the

1:11:07

road on Monday night We

1:11:10

have a team that is below 500 the next week. How did it what

1:11:12

was my message? Let

1:11:14

me just type in some shit here finds it bang That's

1:11:17

what we go to build Bellatrix a genius and he's proving it with more and more stories.

1:11:19

We hear a yeah Imagine

1:11:21

like the discipline it must take for building so at the end of

1:11:23

every day if he type it up notes I'm

1:11:27

saying remember chef's or journals every single thought

1:11:29

you think it could be like Recording

1:11:31

on a little recorder and someone transcribes it for

1:11:33

him Is that ever possible because bills not only

1:11:35

like the note-taking thing I mentioned this

1:11:37

to you earlier You would think

1:11:39

all bills old-school is bright He's like journals and

1:11:41

journals of handwritten stuff But no like he's on

1:11:44

his computer so he can go back and efficiently

1:11:46

look and find these situations that have Scrolling through

1:11:48

15 bins of old

1:11:50

binders that he had how many times

1:11:52

I think I've been around bill now

1:11:54

five times He had

1:11:56

that computer with him every every time yep

1:11:58

that day of the

1:12:00

draft the night before the draft there's only

1:12:02

one thing we're really carrying in there that

1:12:04

computer I couldn't even fathom what is inside

1:12:06

of that computer the amount of football knowledge

1:12:08

that is in that computer notes I meant

1:12:10

the first time we chitchatted about doing draft

1:12:13

and getting to know each other was in

1:12:15

Chicago in the back room he literally we

1:12:17

started watching film on this thing and we

1:12:19

just started rolling I mean we went through

1:12:21

like 45 guys just film film

1:12:23

film look at this it's just going

1:12:25

through it loves ball there's no

1:12:27

way he's not back on a sideline even

1:12:30

even if he has the greatest fall on TV in

1:12:32

history well that's what's absurd is that the fact that

1:12:34

you're hearing all these stories about this guy and that

1:12:36

he doesn't have a job wanted one if you have

1:12:39

wanted a job like obviously we love Rahim Morris on

1:12:41

the record Rahim Morris we we think he'll do very

1:12:43

well on Atlanta and granted that's the only team Bill

1:12:45

looked out but imagine hearing this as a front office

1:12:47

as a team like Atlanta who has won a Super

1:12:50

Bowl in forever if not ever and then you still

1:12:52

don't hire the guy I think there's a chance he's

1:12:54

the smartest person on the world or in the world

1:12:56

excuse me on the world yeah it's good for a

1:12:59

pro we have both either way we joke about

1:13:01

Terrence Howard but he actually Bill Belichick might be

1:13:03

the smartest guy I don't joke if he if

1:13:05

he were of course I agree with you but

1:13:07

if he was you don't understand what the hemoglobin

1:13:10

is doing right next to the metal and the

1:13:12

hydrogen you need to explain it to me I

1:13:14

don't know carbon and hydrogen are at the same

1:13:16

wave outer he's gonna remake Saturn without gravity how

1:13:19

come nobody's come out and said he's completely wrong

1:13:21

that's that's what I'm saying because they're and how

1:13:23

come I've been lied to he's been lying

1:13:26

to you I sat through science classes the opposite

1:13:28

shit that I heard from Terrence Howard I know

1:13:30

that I don't know what they said but I

1:13:32

do know it was not what they're a new

1:13:34

periodic table don't we well it's actually it's actually

1:13:36

the old that's that he's going all the way

1:13:39

back lady ridgeway right yeah wavelength and it's

1:13:41

actually thought flower lights to the surface exactly

1:13:43

you're right so Belichick the fact that now

1:13:45

he's the Croatian president is only ever yeah

1:13:47

he became the Prime Minister of Croatia won

1:13:50

the election after he's been congratulations that's crazy

1:13:52

do you run a campaign was it on

1:13:54

our show now he was just on the ballot and

1:13:56

everyone was like holy shit bill ball you're going to ballot

1:13:58

I'm voting for him but like He's on

1:14:00

a victory lap tour now enjoying his life I think

1:14:02

he's going and doing things probably that he couldn't do

1:14:04

for 49 years as a head coach or a coaching

1:14:06

in the NFL but it's like The

1:14:11

ability to adapt to players when you're

1:14:13

coaching them to the style of football

1:14:16

and then also to adapt Technologically, whatever

1:14:18

how you'd go about doing what you do A lot of people

1:14:20

would think that bill would be way too stubborn like he's way

1:14:22

too stubborn He's stuck in his ways. This what he's gonna do.

1:14:24

Remember? That's what people are saying why they didn't want to give

1:14:27

him a job He's got me up his ways anything. I think

1:14:29

instead he's like if this will make me better quicker

1:14:31

I will do whatever the hell you need for that Big

1:14:34

time goal Wow big time goal. I

1:14:36

believe it's a little hard one other

1:14:39

half of the field Oh Lee got

1:14:41

caught sleeping. Yeah keeps Any

1:14:44

bicycle kick goes yet? There

1:14:47

was a free kick from inter Milan. I believe

1:14:49

that was nasty like JJ almost had a bike,

1:14:51

right? He almost had a bicycle kick. I think

1:14:53

JJ almost took somebody's head off I think he

1:14:55

did it. Yeah, he yelled at some some poor

1:14:57

heckler on the way into that. Yeah, I caught

1:14:59

him on that I saw yeah, that was me.

1:15:01

What was the deal with that? Well, he was

1:15:03

in his he was in his zone You know,

1:15:05

he was in his job There's

1:15:07

some other stuff going on around the NFL our

1:15:10

favorite coach for the Philadelphia Eagles is talking

1:15:12

more shit Listen to Nick Sirianni address, you

1:15:14

know the chitter chatter in the NFC You

1:15:18

know sometimes you see Giants fans around here is

1:15:20

with the you know being so close And

1:15:23

you know, they give me a good

1:15:25

like a go Giants and then that

1:15:27

I'd typically let it go But if

1:15:29

the guy gets me good enough, I'll

1:15:31

probably usually say, you know, that's best

1:15:33

player. Okay Sirianni's talking he's

1:15:35

doing a press conference about his shit talking happening

1:15:37

in the streets of Philadelphia Which is another reason

1:15:39

why I love Nick Sirianni. I think we all

1:15:41

do but the Philadelphia Eagles gonna be able to

1:15:43

get back Interesting, you know,

1:15:46

especially with the loss of Jason Kelsey How will

1:15:48

that go but I do appreciate the fact that

1:15:50

adding Saquon Barkley is something that is not on

1:15:52

Sirianni's mind Just on the field, but also like

1:15:54

division rival. Yeah, we just took literally the only

1:15:56

guy that sells any ticket for you He's on

1:15:58

our team now. Holy shit him like 10 million

1:16:00

bucks or whatever it is, he opens things up

1:16:03

drastically you would assume for Coach Sirianni. We need

1:16:05

the Eagles to get back to because the difference

1:16:07

that we were like the Sirianni that we saw,

1:16:09

I can't remember if it was like the Chiefs

1:16:11

game, whatever, yeah, when he's going into the tunnel

1:16:13

and he's talking shit to every single fan that's

1:16:15

looking at him. That guy, whenever

1:16:18

that was week six, week seven, when it was

1:16:20

before the Eagles were, you know, went on their freefall

1:16:22

to the guy we saw at the end of the

1:16:24

season when they were starting to say like, Oh, hey,

1:16:26

there's a chance Sirianni is gonna get fired with the

1:16:28

coordinators and everything like the NFL is

1:16:31

just better when Sirianni can be out

1:16:33

there talking shit, pissing everybody off. So

1:16:35

I'm really open that Adam, Saquon, Barkley,

1:16:37

not only frees things up for Jalen

1:16:39

Hurts a little bit, because I think

1:16:41

they missed Miles Sanders last year, but

1:16:44

just the Eagles in general, like we

1:16:46

need them to be good. Because

1:16:48

the NFL is just better when Sirianni can kind

1:16:50

of cook and talk his shit. And you mentioned

1:16:52

there with Big Dom, I mean, that's, that's obviously

1:16:54

a massive piece to the entire thing. Big Dom

1:16:57

not being able to be on a sideline to

1:16:59

kind of wrangle Nick Sirianni. I'm surprised

1:17:01

we'll see him at press conferences, because there's a chance

1:17:03

that Nick Sirianni is just going to go full promo

1:17:05

every single time. I wonder how hard that is for

1:17:07

him to fight AJ. I want

1:17:09

to see I mean, I assume Sirianni is the same way

1:17:11

all the time, 24 hours a day with

1:17:14

his family, whatever it may be. But I

1:17:16

think Sirianni is kind of like a guy, you know,

1:17:18

when you have a player that when they're feeling themselves,

1:17:20

they're playing well, they're kind of bouncing around the court

1:17:22

or the field wherever they may be, whatever the sport

1:17:24

is, and they're enjoying themselves and having fun talking. But

1:17:26

then when that guy kind of has a rough day,

1:17:28

they're down the dump, they're not talking, they're not doing

1:17:30

a thing. And the coach has to say like, hey, we

1:17:32

need you. I need you the way you are. Like you

1:17:34

play best when you're out there and you're talking, you're letting

1:17:36

everybody know. And I think that's what Nick Sirianni is. Man,

1:17:38

it's a lot easier to talk shit when

1:17:41

you're winning. It's really tough when you're losing, isn't it?

1:17:43

Like you lose the game. Conor McGregor is the best

1:17:45

at it though, right? Okay, so what's going on? Good

1:17:47

transition there. He canceled a press conference yesterday. Yeah, and

1:17:49

I'm looking good. You have C303. Obviously,

1:17:52

this has taken forever to kind

1:17:54

of make this Chandler Conor McGregor fight happen

1:17:56

and become official. And Chandler has been waiting

1:17:58

since they do the... tough enough

1:18:00

the Fighter

1:18:02

which is on the season 60 or whatever

1:18:04

congratulations to them, but they've been waiting a

1:18:06

long long time Obviously Conor McGregor does that

1:18:08

movie where he's getting Oscar naught? Yeah, I

1:18:11

wouldn't go that far. I think he's getting

1:18:13

Austin odd. Yeah, I mean Oh, baby, I

1:18:15

don't think so that listen. I love Roadhouse

1:18:17

love Dylan Hall Love

1:18:19

Conor McGregor that movie absolutely suck. No, I heard

1:18:21

it was good. I don't see it. Okay. There

1:18:23

you go Yeah, it was not

1:18:25

good. So I was just told that it's corners cheeks

1:18:27

the entire first 30 seconds Lot

1:18:29

of McGregor's butt cheeks in there So every time I

1:18:31

would go to started on my thumb was the corners

1:18:34

cheeks right now It was just not a time where

1:18:36

I want to see his cheeks So I did not

1:18:38

get to watch it But I assume I will at

1:18:40

some point and I will enjoy it Conor McGregor Obviously

1:18:42

watch a documentary notorious from where he was to where

1:18:44

he became just basically calling his shot and working his

1:18:46

dick off and monitoring Or filming it

1:18:49

all that was a great documentary and obviously he

1:18:51

is box office sells out everywhere So him finally

1:18:53

getting back into octon to take on a guy

1:18:55

that they've been talking about for years Is he

1:18:57

gonna fight Michael Chandler and Michael Chandler's guy who

1:18:59

will just go in there and you punch in

1:19:01

the face? Oh, yeah, Michael Chandler wants to be

1:19:03

electrifying in the ring. It's like this is a

1:19:05

perfect fight and Chandler knew that that's why I

1:19:07

called Them out after his last fight or whatever.

1:19:09

It's like Connor coming back for somebody It might

1:19:12

as well be me we're all jacked up then

1:19:14

all of a sudden yesterday UFC 303 press conference

1:19:16

gets canceled like hours Beforehand and now everybody's starting

1:19:18

to wonder everything Ariel. Hawani allegedly was gonna have

1:19:20

an update today at 1 o'clock Well, obviously keep

1:19:22

the eyes peeled. Yeah, I just feel bad for

1:19:24

Chandler cuz this fight's not happened It's just not

1:19:26

happening now Chandler is wasted two years of his

1:19:28

of his life Just basically waiting for McGregor to

1:19:30

get ready and although wait

1:19:32

a second. Wait a second Okay,

1:19:34

Ariel. Hawani has reported that Great

1:19:37

positivity that Connor will fight at UFC 303. Okay,

1:19:39

he's what? Ariel

1:19:42

Hawaii said great positive now he

1:19:44

plugged in And you know, Hawani

1:19:46

is pretty plugged in with the Connor McGregor camp He

1:19:49

actually soon as the press conference got canceled He came

1:19:51

out and said this isn't corner everybody's calling him a

1:19:53

back out and everything It's not a Connor

1:19:55

McGregor thing. He knows it's bad for business. I hope that's

1:19:57

the case. I think there was also some people hot pops

1:20:00

Sausage that maybe just got injured in camp and

1:20:02

normally we would not hear about it We got

1:20:04

to stay up for so long, but since a

1:20:06

press conference was happening on the same exact day

1:20:08

It was like yeah, we get to make it

1:20:10

we gotta get some scans for something I'm hoping

1:20:12

that's the case as opposed to him saying what

1:20:15

the hell am I doing this for I got

1:20:17

a yacht I got hundreds of millions the black

1:20:19

forgin over there is doing fantastic. What's the whiskey?

1:20:21

The proper 12. The proper 12. He was talking

1:20:23

shit on Guinness last week He was

1:20:25

like if you want to drink Guinness go ahead remember

1:20:27

what they did to Ireland They were a bunch of

1:20:30

spies. He said that they were spies for

1:20:32

England like Arthur Dennis had to turn around

1:20:34

the the harp on the logo to face

1:20:36

in as opposed to out because he was

1:20:38

Alleged like that's what part of McGregor was

1:20:40

posted. That's not so I think he's trying

1:20:42

to really go for it all business-wise I'm

1:20:44

seemingly having success. I hope it wasn't a

1:20:48

Yeah, you know they can't train his heart and when

1:20:50

you're waking up and sat in sheets It's like you're

1:20:52

waking up on a yacht in satin sheets with other

1:20:54

businesses boom and it's easy to be like Yeah, I

1:20:56

won't go get punched in her face. I hope that's

1:20:59

not the case. I hope that's not it He's already

1:21:01

like it established himself already Hall of Famer. Yeah, consider

1:21:03

to go double champ I mean, there's like so many

1:21:05

things that can go to mine for him being like,

1:21:07

you know what? I don't want to do it anymore.

1:21:09

I hope that's not there's part of that But I

1:21:11

think also like anything we know about these UFC fighters

1:21:14

like he's wired differently Like you think you know Chandler's

1:21:16

been talking a bunch of shit to him You think

1:21:18

he doesn't and he's been away for a while Like

1:21:20

you think he doesn't want to get back into the

1:21:22

octagon and kind of remind everyone like hey When

1:21:25

I'm at the top of my game like I'm

1:21:27

I'm the I don't know Well,

1:21:29

I know think about that. How long ago? What when was

1:21:32

Connor Connor in his prime like there's a lot of

1:21:34

you try like five five years That's why I you

1:21:36

know everything maybe longer like recency bias now Like there's

1:21:38

a lot of people a lot of people were around

1:21:40

that don't know that Connor but to that point Don't

1:21:42

you think that's why he would want to get back?

1:21:45

But if he comes back in it's the main event at

1:21:47

UFC 303 Like you the UFC's never

1:21:49

been hotter than it is right now Like if

1:21:51

he goes in there and has a crazy

1:21:54

highlight reel knockout of Michael Chandler like that's

1:21:56

what everybody's talking about I'm a Gregor again,

1:21:58

and then we're argued looking You know

1:22:00

to the next super fight when he's gonna be

1:22:02

main event. Yeah I love what you're saying about

1:22:05

having to prove and wanting to feel that again

1:22:07

And I hope that's the case for Connor who's

1:22:09

allegedly always training like even when he's on his

1:22:11

yachts. He's got super nice gyms He's training. He's

1:22:13

always fighting. Yeah, he's got Fight,

1:22:16

you know I mean he needs one two

1:22:18

three times. He needs you out there and

1:22:20

fight that whole thing My hammies

1:22:22

are locking up right now. Yeah, I get

1:22:24

just from one five minute sesh of soccer

1:22:26

in the morning What if he isn't

1:22:28

a machine, you know, what if he is a possible guys

1:22:30

a movie star and what if there's a chance

1:22:32

and it's Not a Connor McGregor thing at all.

1:22:34

But what if he is in training like realizing

1:22:36

maybe I don't maybe it's not the same Maybe

1:22:38

for whatever reason what maybe I'm not moving as

1:22:40

quick because if you lose the Michael Chandler I

1:22:44

mean that would dog doubt. Yeah, that would be a

1:22:46

massive Massive not saying any

1:22:48

of this is real but whenever something gets canceled

1:22:50

you automatically have to speculate everything Well, especially if

1:22:52

he if he's looking at like the style of

1:22:54

fighter He's like, hey, you know, I like obviously

1:22:56

Chandler will stand and bang with people But he's

1:22:59

also a wrestler like it's kind of thinking like no Do

1:23:01

I do I really want to take the next eight

1:23:03

weeks or he's in the middle of it right now? But like this training

1:23:05

camp and like I'm gonna be Grappling and

1:23:07

like is that the fight I do I really want

1:23:09

to get prepared go out there and then have it

1:23:11

potentially be like I get the best of him on

1:23:13

his feet and then he just takes takes me down

1:23:16

and grinds me out that way like I

1:23:18

Don't want to get grinded out right in front of everybody

1:23:21

Yeah, especially Who's

1:23:24

uh-oh Habib. Yeah,

1:23:26

hobby. I remember those fights. Oh, yeah,

1:23:29

Habib would just like a monster. Yeah,

1:23:31

like a boa constrict Yeah talking shit, right

1:23:33

while while wrestling them laying on them. Yeah,

1:23:35

just a no. Yeah, is that right? And

1:23:37

then they're down Somebody

1:23:39

mentioned it we need to

1:23:41

get Dagestan on our side. Oh, yeah now

1:23:44

I don't know how that would work and

1:23:46

I'm not necessarily sure What

1:23:48

international relations are with whom sheriff

1:23:50

believe they are loyal to one

1:23:52

country We need to figure out

1:23:55

how to get them on our side. Mm-hmm. Who's that?

1:23:58

I believe it is a pro-russian. Yeah, mother Russia

1:24:00

unfortunately well they're in the

1:24:02

middle of some stuff right now now might be

1:24:04

a time because Russia is distracted to get in

1:24:06

there and win over the Dagestan kind of look

1:24:08

over here we need them on our side they

1:24:11

are all dogs oh yeah all of them are

1:24:13

dogs wrestling bears like if you get to the

1:24:15

UFC during this era congratulations who do you get

1:24:17

to fight Dagestan who's actually

1:24:19

been wrestling bears and swimming up Creek

1:24:21

and frozen rivers yeah that is and

1:24:23

they got

1:24:26

his bullet obviously pulling for him at all that's a triple

1:24:28

threat as we continue to talk about sports we don't

1:24:30

know a lot a lot about let's go to

1:24:32

baseball one of the hundo boys you see it

1:24:34

oh yeah Jerry Jones one of the hundo boys

1:24:37

make Shohei with Tony look like a dumb dumb

1:24:39

time yeah absolutely I mean we've said it listen

1:24:41

Paul schemes getting all headlines you got

1:24:43

two guys in your starting rotation throwing just premium

1:24:45

gas diesel hundred and one miles an hour came

1:24:47

him I mean the Pirates it again you got

1:24:49

two guys at the top of your rotation who

1:24:51

are like this if you just get a little

1:24:54

bit of run support just a little bit of

1:24:56

run support you have other people chip in a

1:24:58

little bit like this is a team that can

1:25:00

make the playoffs and it's a team that a

1:25:02

lot of people wouldn't want to see in the

1:25:04

playoffs because they I mean as exciting and as

1:25:06

good of a one-two punch in their rotation as

1:25:08

anyone in baseball right now so I do wonder

1:25:10

from watching this and shout out to Jerry Jones

1:25:13

he's got good vibes does good did they sell

1:25:15

a Japanese ad because Shohei with Tony was coming

1:25:17

it's it's possible I know a lot of

1:25:20

the board in the stadiums now or are

1:25:22

digital so they'll just pop in like where

1:25:24

you pause oh okay like that is that

1:25:26

always at PMC Park in Pittsburgh I guess

1:25:29

the genius move if there's a company to

1:25:31

just buying advertising right behind Shohei Oh Tani from

1:25:33

Japan that feels like a brilliant move because all

1:25:35

these clips go to Japan I assume oh they

1:25:37

do the monkey thing we're like the hockey boards

1:25:40

on the broadcasts are different than what it is

1:25:42

actually inside the arena so the hockey boards are

1:25:44

like naturally one color right you're able to paint

1:25:46

over it I do wonder if now baseball is

1:25:48

doing that but that's good business right there oh

1:25:51

yeah for sure to Shohei Oh Tani obviously but

1:25:53

how's Shota doing he's been

1:25:55

roughed up big time in his last few starts I think

1:25:57

he's gonna our fault he gave up I want to say

1:25:59

nine runs in his first seven starts

1:26:01

and I think he's given up like 12 in

1:26:03

his last two. Alright let's get back to some

1:26:05

football talk. Two has lost too much weight people

1:26:08

hate it. Here's Jalen Waddle chit chatting about two

1:26:10

of being super skinny now. You

1:26:12

know I told him I miss chubby to him man. I

1:26:15

miss chubby to him man. I didn't

1:26:17

like him when I seen him. I told him I'm not f***

1:26:20

with him. I'll

1:26:22

tell him straight up. I'm not f*** with him.

1:26:24

He's the more exciting man. Yeah

1:26:26

I'm not. Yeah

1:26:28

f*** hair twisting.

1:26:31

I'm not. I'm

1:26:33

loving it though. He's looking good. It's gonna good and I

1:26:36

got to throw one of my lozies off here so he's looking

1:26:38

good. So that's now Jalen and

1:26:40

two of both going like whole new

1:26:43

tooling issue. What did Tyreke say?

1:26:45

Tyreke said uh. I thought he was on. He

1:26:47

said is this guy on his zempic? He was

1:26:50

at a Pro Bowl fat as shit. Yeah and

1:26:52

all of a sudden he's super remember he's got

1:26:54

great jawline right now. Yep. His hair kind of

1:26:56

froed up a little bit. New tat, whole new

1:26:58

arms had it up. Super thin more agile. AJ

1:27:01

they're saying he's gonna extend plays and make the

1:27:03

Miami Dolphins offense even more lethal. Skinny to it.

1:27:05

I guess have we heard from Tua yet? I'd

1:27:07

like to know if he had a plan going

1:27:09

into this off season like hey this is what

1:27:12

I'm gonna do. I'm gonna lose 10-15 pounds or

1:27:14

whatever it may be but you know the first time he

1:27:16

comes out of a game injured if he

1:27:18

does I hope I don't wish anyone to get hurt

1:27:20

but if he's limping ever once that's the first thing

1:27:22

you say oh maybe he needs to put that weight

1:27:24

back on. I can't wait

1:27:26

to see how Tua handles the weight

1:27:28

loss and also how he continues to

1:27:30

evolve his look. Yeah. Uso's

1:27:32

look cool all the time. They do.

1:27:35

They literally look cool all the time.

1:27:37

All shapes, all sizes, Uso's look cool

1:27:39

all the time. Tua now

1:27:41

getting jocked, double tat, hair's growing out

1:27:43

long. I think we have a chance to maybe

1:27:46

have coolest looking guy to ever play quarterback ahead.

1:27:49

Not right now obviously. Okay. And I guess what a

1:27:51

lot of people are saying. I think that's what Jaylen's

1:27:53

saying too. Jaylen's like hey when he get there he

1:27:55

brings in a beard into this entire equation. That's the

1:27:57

thing. He needs to grow the beard back because his

1:27:59

beard I mean. Like you mentioned it the

1:28:01

Uso's they're always it's so lined up It

1:28:03

looks so good every time Roman Reigns all

1:28:05

you know the Uso brothers all the guys

1:28:07

in the WWE Their

1:28:09

beards are phenomenal. Okay, two it needs to

1:28:11

get the it just looks weird. It just

1:28:14

looks weird You you have that type of

1:28:16

hair nice, you know tight beard with it

1:28:18

as well. We are talking coolest looking QB

1:28:21

ever We have some big-time NFL news potential

1:28:23

friend of yours Corey Lindsley has been released

1:28:26

from the Chargers new

1:28:29

regime Jim Harbaugh loves

1:28:31

offensive line thought there was maybe a

1:28:33

chance that you would still in keep

1:28:35

the vet around Who's getting paid very

1:28:37

well to be the center for the

1:28:39

Chargers? He he was released

1:28:42

and now they're talking about retirement and all

1:28:44

the records are coming 1572

1:28:48

straight pass block snaps without allowing a sack

1:28:50

obviously Aaron loves this guy I assume everybody in Green

1:28:52

Bay does AJ What are your thoughts on Corey and

1:28:55

the potential end of the road here which goes back

1:28:57

to the conversation? About Jordan

1:28:59

loves saying hey It feels like our locker

1:29:01

rooms tighter than it's ever been because this is

1:29:04

like their team now Yeah, that previous team

1:29:06

is seemingly, you know, yeah, the light at

1:29:08

the end of the tunnel is some kind

1:29:10

of there for everybody AJ Yeah,

1:29:12

I mean, I don't know if anyone like box yard

1:29:14

might have been the last of that kind of era

1:29:16

I think in Green Bay him and and Mason Crosby

1:29:18

and they're not there anymore. But yeah

1:29:20

Corey Lindsay. He is Such

1:29:23

a unique weird awesome dude

1:29:25

like I mean But what are those like

1:29:27

weird watch his weird movies super intelligent like

1:29:29

you if you would you say Corey? Hey, tell me

1:29:31

what's going on Israel Palestine. What's happened? He'll legit could

1:29:33

tell you for 20 minutes He'll go back to two

1:29:36

three thousand years ago. I mean start watching more

1:29:38

film. Yeah, that's a hard one I'm saying football

1:29:41

wise to like he or I don't want to

1:29:43

hear Corey's like weird genius And and one of

1:29:45

those like country strong kids at the same time.

1:29:47

So great combination for a center. Hey Corey Congratulations

1:29:50

if it is it if not, can we

1:29:52

do about 190 pounds right now? Where you

1:29:54

heading? Oh, he really he's already on his

1:29:56

transition Super super lean. What if he was

1:29:58

talking about like and Howard and Jim Harbaugh

1:30:01

heard of me. I would like to ask Corey, hey

1:30:03

what do you think about this whole Tarrant Howard situation?

1:30:05

Does he have, he'd give you a 40 minute thing

1:30:07

on every single thing? When did you see him? He's

1:30:09

195 pounds. The Derby. Okay, so

1:30:12

that could have been some news. Hey Corey Lindley,

1:30:14

center guy who is one of the most world

1:30:16

renowned tough guys. He's now 185 pounds. He's not

1:30:18

180 but I don't know what he is. But

1:30:20

he's not very, very playing with you. Well congratulations

1:30:23

Corey. It sounds like we don't

1:30:25

know though. He had a lot of heart, he

1:30:27

had a heart situation. He had some scary stuff.

1:30:29

Yeah he's been pretty, he's missed a lot

1:30:31

of games like the last two years and I know

1:30:33

they were talking retirement might be right around the corner.

1:30:36

You talking about being super smart. Yesterday

1:30:38

as soon as we got here I

1:30:40

ran into a 22 year old named Austin.

1:30:44

And Austin was a guy who

1:30:47

was able to fool any

1:30:49

day of the week that any date in

1:30:52

the history of the world was. So

1:30:55

I don't know Austin completely but his

1:30:57

dad comes over to me and says say a date

1:30:59

in history and I say

1:31:01

May 2nd, 1987. That's

1:31:03

my birthday. This guy, his

1:31:05

eyes actually start like it's a filing

1:31:07

cabinet. Okay, filing cabinet through it and

1:31:09

he goes it was a Saturday. So

1:31:12

then his dad pulls out, phone and he goes what day

1:31:14

of the week was May 2nd, 1987. He

1:31:16

was like Saturday. I'm like holy shit

1:31:18

is this, am I getting worked right now? So

1:31:21

I go December 25th, 2024. Try

1:31:23

to fuck him a little bit. Because it's not in

1:31:26

the history, it's future. He

1:31:28

said any day in history and Austin,

1:31:30

same exact move, the eyes and

1:31:33

he goes it's a Wednesday. I'm like damn right

1:31:35

there's NFL football on Austin. Let's never ever forget it.

1:31:37

He was maybe the smart, like in that particular

1:31:39

world of talent. I've never seen anything like that. Just

1:31:41

the history of the world. Now I assume there's like

1:31:43

square roots and all these things that you could

1:31:45

potentially dive in through or there's some sort of theory.

1:31:48

That was as soon as we landed at the

1:31:50

airport waiting for autograph. I was

1:31:52

there 25 minutes asking dates to figure it out, trying

1:31:54

to catch them. Was right every time. There's people with

1:31:56

super brains out there. I've

1:31:58

heard some different people. have stuff like that

1:32:01

or they have like crazy weird memories they

1:32:03

can remember all kind of numbers and equations

1:32:05

and all that yeah safe

1:32:07

to say I don't have any of that in my

1:32:09

brain no question I did say that we need to

1:32:11

get him to a blackjack table yeah we need to

1:32:13

get him to a black any other cool like tricks

1:32:16

like that that he could do or is it always

1:32:18

just a history con man we just kind of hammered

1:32:20

we kind of hammered the date history kind of hammered

1:32:22

date and history and he nailed 100% absolutely who are

1:32:24

the two sock teams that are playing right now we

1:32:27

got hashtag United take it on another

1:32:29

team I don't know if you remember here

1:32:32

what's the score what half is it it

1:32:34

is one nothing the home team is the

1:32:37

second half with 1640 left the clock kicks

1:32:39

away yeah quick how does Cincinnati score seven

1:32:41

goals on JJ's team that's a lot counter

1:32:44

attack he said yeah they countered the shit

1:32:46

I mean that means like what happened to

1:32:48

us so we were down

1:32:50

one nothing okay so we came

1:32:52

out with an idea okay we're gonna press a little

1:32:54

bit because they can just sit back park the bus

1:32:57

you heard dumpy talk about a cage so we're gonna

1:32:59

that creates a cage affair yeah because it just

1:33:01

gets sticky in the back so we

1:33:03

attack and then you give away

1:33:05

a ball you got four people up all of a sudden

1:33:07

they're coming back the other way and you only got two

1:33:09

people so they countered the shit out of us back-to-back well

1:33:11

I mean that was like it was one nothing that was

1:33:13

three nothing in a matter of a minute

1:33:15

and a half oh wait you're going to a

1:33:18

big part of it to up around the 50

1:33:20

yard line whatever you call it in soccer so

1:33:22

if he gets caught like you're done there's no

1:33:24

goal this is a brilliant concept it's awesome they

1:33:26

didn't say brilliant the whole tournament is awesome yeah

1:33:28

like even the whole entire like what's the word

1:33:31

I'm looking for all the fields you have

1:33:33

complex I didn't expect it to have like

1:33:35

well you know who it is who's that

1:33:37

cross yeah I'm still out on

1:33:39

cross but now process a lot on his plate

1:33:41

yeah no I heard I heard cross I

1:33:43

got the big process a great handshake good accent

1:33:46

brought on a crew with him named hunter and he was

1:33:48

like oh my friend Santa clip

1:33:50

obviously heard like you say

1:33:52

I'm like cross I woke up this morning the only

1:33:54

problems I heard were from a guy named cross literally

1:33:56

now obviously every other problem I had to in my

1:33:58

life at that exact time was But

1:34:00

anything that was happening down here for months of

1:34:03

planning was like cross one, let us do this

1:34:05

cross one, let us do that cross one, let

1:34:07

us do that cross one, let us do that

1:34:09

Cross one's like that's not true at all. This

1:34:11

conversation's together for a couple weeks. I'm like, I'll

1:34:13

cross that This is one of those shooting before

1:34:16

aiming. Sure. Shooting before aiming type situation and I

1:34:18

certainly do apologize about that I don't know if

1:34:20

you've seen this, the Utah Jazz have debuted brand

1:34:22

new uniform. What? Ryan Smith is in his creative

1:34:24

bag out there in Utah. The Mormons refused to

1:34:26

use the name soakers or earthquakeers on anything Which

1:34:29

none of us makes sense. Bullshit. None of

1:34:31

us fully innocent. Look at the new kit.

1:34:33

Nice. Utah Jazz got a hockey team in

1:34:35

town Now they're starting to take over. Ryan

1:34:37

Smith knows it all. Ryan Smith big time

1:34:39

new school which will be creative with students

1:34:41

and stuff I feel like you're gonna

1:34:43

have new kits probably every single year. The new kits

1:34:45

aren't always a home run though, Convent. No, no, those

1:34:47

ones are kind of awesome Because it's almost a hat

1:34:49

tip to the old ones like to bring them back

1:34:52

to mountains It's not like the one on the right

1:34:54

side here in the middle with the jazz logo They

1:34:56

went to that and then just did like the

1:34:58

yellow neon letters Like that wasn't really what the

1:35:01

Utah Jazz at least we knew all about him

1:35:03

with John Stockton dribbling up to the top of

1:35:05

his head But these are unbelievable. Need more of

1:35:07

the throw. What'd you say John Stockton dribbled to

1:35:09

the top of his head? We're staying there playing

1:35:11

lesser basketball back in the... Hey, look,

1:35:14

I'm a huge stockin guy. I love the

1:35:16

way he plays ball. Love all of his

1:35:18

assistant skills. I also love his views on a lot

1:35:20

of things Oh, crazy,

1:35:22

right? Got into hot water with the

1:35:24

Gonzaga team when he got banned with

1:35:26

season tickets But again John Stockton is

1:35:28

a one-of-one human being and those jerseys

1:35:30

also are regarded as one of the

1:35:33

best sets of jerseys in NBA history

1:35:35

Big news in the NFL contract extensions

1:35:37

for the general manager and the head

1:35:39

coach of the Cleveland Browns Wow Andrew

1:35:43

Barry friend of mine obviously a guy that we hoped

1:35:45

would become the youngest general manager in the history of

1:35:47

the NFL and take the Indianapolis Coach job Instead

1:35:50

we didn't even interview him then a couple years later.

1:35:52

He goes to Cleveland. Everybody says who's this? Well, he

1:35:54

played at Harvard He's a football guy. He knows the

1:35:56

locker room and he's a genius now. He did have

1:35:58

to pay $230

1:36:01

million guaranteed to a quarterback that we don't know if

1:36:03

he's ever gonna get back to the form of being

1:36:05

a 230 million dollar quarterback

1:36:07

But he ends the fancy big brain seemingly

1:36:09

having Cleveland rowing in the right direction the

1:36:11

dog pounds pumped about this AJ Do you

1:36:13

know do you have a nice nice set

1:36:15

of the pulse of the dog pound on

1:36:17

it? If the fancy and

1:36:20

Andrew Barry are be loved by the Browns

1:36:22

fans face. I live in Ohio So I'm

1:36:24

around a decent amount of Browns fans it

1:36:26

I think people like to fancy as long as you win They

1:36:29

don't if you don't lie, I'm out. They don't

1:36:31

win But then they hate like every year

1:36:33

we're talking or we're hearing from Browns fans

1:36:35

basically saying like hey this guy sucks Okay,

1:36:37

like they lose a game in in October

1:36:39

and everyone's done with to fancy And I

1:36:41
