Speaker 4: Is someone we know?
Speaker 5: George Washington?
Speaker 3: Michael Jordan?

Speaker 3: Arguably? Do you know how old Michael Jordan is prepared
to feel like the Matt Damon saving Private Ryan Meet
sixty one sixty two? Good guess sod it?
Speaker 5: I was gonna say sick. So it was right in
the middle.
Speaker 3: How convenient? Yeah, sure you were damn sixty two years
old the goat. So now it's time to have the debate.
Is Michael Jordan the Great? No, I'm just kidding. I
just saw a very weird AI video though. If somebody
wishing happy birthday and then say posting this video for
the young bloods that may have not seen the miss
and it's his shot against the jazz, but he missed it. Yeah,
the Jazz are celebrating. He's upset and it looks so real. Yeah,
and this remains the most terrifying part about AI that
the worst it is that it will ever be is
where it's at today, and it's just constantly improved. What
the hell are we gonna do?
Speaker 2: Dude?
Speaker 3: We cannot discern reality from.
Speaker 5: Like I feel like you can tell.
Speaker 3: Exactly for now, you still kind of now, but think
about where it was last year, You about where it
was two years ago.
Speaker 6: I just think that it's going to be like that
uncanny Valley kind of thing where you like, no matter
how good it gets, you can tell something ain't right
about it.
Speaker 3: I hope you're right. I usually am not as right
as me, but I'll give you that. We can lose
her wimby. You know what, let's get into it. Let's
do a little weekend winners.
Speaker 2: That's how win it has done. That's right. We can't
have anyone to freak out out there.
Speaker 3: Okay, he's got a k bark apologer got too far.
I'm by winning. I went here and I win there?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 3: What are you doing what it takes to win a championship?
Speaker 2: Wow?
Speaker 3: Winning? Well? Then I guess there's only one thing left
to do?
Speaker 4: What's that.
Speaker 3: Win the whole thing? Wait? Do we have the PK
supin called we do? Okay?
Speaker 2: Cool?
Speaker 3: Uh let's start there. So we talk about US hockey.
Obviously US hockey a big week in winner. And here
is uh PK subin former hockey great, US great. And
you can hear the emotion. This is off the punk drop.
This is during the first fight. Here's a PK's calling
the radio.
Speaker 4: This is bad blood here man band averon the regular season.
But it's all here.
Speaker 3: It's band Aver. One hundred years of history, folks, one
hundred years of hockey.
Speaker 2: Two nations getting at it too willing come Houns.
Speaker 3: This is USA Canada edn Rtius trained arts and Grand
Cass hits.
Speaker 2: It's a lipsid man okay.
Speaker 3: On the radio, couldn't help himself, dropped a lets F
and go. Also shout out to Shack, who on the
way out of a TNT commercial break this weekend was
like of time, I'm tired whatever we're getting fired anywhere
on the way out. Hell yeah, Shack, do you think man,
we can winner? PK soup and USI.
Speaker 7: All right, well a weekend loser everything. The NBA did
this weekend. Yes, gosh, All Star Weekend used to be
something that I looked forward to.
Speaker 3: Three point contest, dun't contest.
Speaker 7: I mean it was the The game itself was competitive,
and you had legends out there that were like, I
am not going to allow that person to beat me.
Speaker 3: I don't care what we're doing. So certainly here on
the court, this is a great Michael video where they're
all talking about like that that boy and the Lakers, right,
they're talking about Kobe Yeah, where he's like they're talking
about it and they're like, ooh, that guy. That boy,
don't let the game come to him. He takes it
and Michael's like, ah, whatever, you're not about to get
his ass, Like where's that?
Speaker 7: And then, like Michael's last year in the All Star Game,
he hit a shot to go ahead, and then I
believe they to go up and I don't know if
it's two or three, but then Kobe gets fouled and
everybody's trying to tell Kobe, hey, miss the free throw
so Mike can have the game winner and last All
Star game, and Kobe's looking at him like they're crazy,
like what now missing the second of three?
Speaker 3: But he wasn't trying to miss. I mean, he was like,
hell no, I ain't missing these free throws. It's just gone.
I mean the game sucks. Like what I mean, what
now we're doing like three like forty point games or something.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was like three mini tournament, like a three
game mini tournament, and they had three teams and I
don't even know who all was on what team. That's
how much I don't like what he was.
Speaker 3: Just to East West again, we're over complicating it. Just
keep it to East West.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Now it's like shock, yeah, team Chuck. I think Kenny
might have had yeah, like he was the third team.
And then I read I don't know because again I
didn't pay attention to this at all. I couldn't tell
you who was on what team, but I read that
like the third team, like Kenny's team had no actual Well, yeah, they.
Speaker 3: Were the they were made up of the winner of
the Rising Stars Challenge.
Speaker 5: Stupid. That's so dumb.
Speaker 3: Again. Also, they just they just on paper. I feel
like I see how they get here.
Speaker 5: But my but it's the execution of it is not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just play East West again, dude, I
don't know you've been like I credit the NBA trot.
I credited the NBA for trying to figure it out,
but just go back to East West.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Also, Jake, do you agree weekend loser Wimby and CP
three for that skills challenge? Nonsense? Yeah, they tried to
pull a fast one.
Speaker 6: I don't think that like it can it constitutes a
weekend loser. I think that they found a loophole. And
I think that Wimby asked five to six different people
on the court as told by Draymond Green who he
was going up against, and like, fine, if you don't
like it, that's fine. But also like the NBA after
disqualifying them, the sideline or the court side reporter, she
tried to like go interview CP three and Wimby and
at this point, like nobody's taking any of the NBA
All Star Weekend seriously.
Speaker 5: So like if she wants to go interview CP three
and Wimby and be like, Yo, what did y'all do?
Why are y'all disqualify?
Speaker 4: What ever?
Speaker 6: And then the guys like I don't even know who
it was, the guy's telling her like, no, we're not
doing that right now, like denying her and me, and
like Wimby and CP three looked like they were about
to like just do it, and the guys the one
that stopped it.
Speaker 5: And to me, that's the real loser there where like
you're just what are we doing?
Speaker 3: I get Look, I agree with you that that's also losers. Yeah,
and I know you're taking up for your guy, but like,
it was lame to shoot the three.
Speaker 4: Also, there's only ones that like.
Speaker 5: That had high IQ on that court.
Speaker 3: No IQ. I'm not saying they did anything functionally wrong.
What they did was just objectively lame. It looks so stupid.
It did look stupid, and on a weekend in which
the NBA really struggled to look cool, that becomes the
poster child of what are we even doing out here?
Speaker 4: Would did you rather see wenby Bury the three?
Speaker 3: Hell? Yeah?
Speaker 6: So if you're getting timed right, like say we're doing
a timed competition, you're not gonna do what you can
to cut down on the time so that you win.
Speaker 3: No, I know that's what I'm saying again.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I also don't think.
Speaker 5: That that's the biggest thing of the entire weekend.
Speaker 6: We're like, oh that, Like, no, it's like the the
three game mini tournament is the stupidest thing that I've
ever seen. Having a third team with the Rising Stars
is so dumb, Like like.
Speaker 3: Jake said, though, I mean it's everything, Yet Mac McClung
a g leaguer, it all sucks winning the dunk contest.
It's like, and his dunks are awesome, but like what
happened to the Stars?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean well, and somebody mentioned like, as long
as you're going to let Mac McClung in this as
a gen leaguer who objectively is very good at dunking,
what incentive do the Stars have to join?
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Like, so you can get potentially beat by a g leaguer,
People like why would a jamar ran?
Speaker 3: And why not wintube dunkers?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, just bring in the street dunkers.
Speaker 6: Why don't we let I show speed actually run in
the Olympics or something.
Speaker 3: Oh h dude, I show speed. Actually he's actually you
see that was actually crazy. I did actually have Wimby
on my weekend Winter list though, because he brought a
book to read before the game, and Nikola jokicch was like, yeah,
I read for every game, like like ahead in his hand.
Speaker 5: He's like, oh my god, it's such a physical freak.
Speaker 4: I love Nicole.
Speaker 3: I say it's a winter because I too used to
like to read for the games.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's so wholesome. He was just like playing chess
out and like.
Speaker 3: Love Wemby, don't love me to the skills challenge. We
love overall.
Speaker 6: My weekend winter was high Point Baseball. They got these
sick lavender jerseys. I put them in the dock. They
have lavender jerseys and east Us like we did it first,
but east Us are uglier because high Point they had
like a lavender jersey, white pants and they badass.
Speaker 5: ECUs are ugly.
Speaker 3: Uh, they look really pleasant.
Speaker 6: I would love if L s U did an alternate
lavender UNI. I know, I'm I know I'm alone on this,
but I would love it.
Speaker 3: I don't hate it.
Speaker 4: Could you imagine two three pm?
Speaker 3: Can you imagine to sit there?
Speaker 7: Would not show I mean because because of the angry
old men L She's probably not going to wear any
other alternate uniform for like maybe one one a year now.
Speaker 3: So they got their wish.
Speaker 4: That's that's the thing.
Speaker 7: It offended them so much. And the guys that actually
put it on who didn't care, but they were offended. Dude,
you got to give a shout out to to Stevens coach.
Uh the old Virginia picture from back in the day.
Speaker 3: How do you say, shod Virginia picture from back in
the day? Who went roll for?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 3: What do you say? Like? I want like a kool
aid or something I can't remember, dippit dots. Yeah, but
he has really made himself into the kind of voice
or face of college baseball. And it's not just the
sec or ac like. He covers all of it at
all and somehow, which I don't get how he does
it because it's such a broad spectrum. He really does
do a great joy. He just does a fantastic job
of it. Dude, Shout out Stephen Shots.
Speaker 5: He's the best follow on Twitter for college baseball if you.
Speaker 3: Want it, yeah, like, if you want like like the
fun like like I.
Speaker 5: Mean he goes in depth into people's rosters too.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yeah, he highlights fun stuff, all of it.
Speaker 7: Shout out Shock Weekend Winter Yukon women's basketball. They shall
lack South Carolina ending their seventy one game home Windstreet,
good God, and beat them by thirty. And now Yukon
is the actual Vegas favorite to win a national championship.
Now there's a lot of teams that are clustered there
together because there's like five or six that have a
real chance. But by thirty at home, after that team
had won seventy one straight times in that building.
Speaker 3: I've said, look, I've said it upset every years. Now,
it's really hard to win seventy two in a row.
It's it. It just is I don't know, is this
is this uh empire strikes back? Is Gino back? Is Ginot?
Speaker 4: Is he on the dominant?
Speaker 7: Like here's I think the problem is they play in
the Big East, and the Big East is not great,
and so they played this great non conference schedule a
lot of times, but then they go kind of like
Gonzaggi used to in the West Coast Conference. They wouldn't
get challenged and then they'd have to try to restart
the fire. And I think that's why they put a
South Carolina game kind of in the middle of conference
play so they could be tested.
Speaker 3: Well, they certainly went out there and they passed.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think it's more important because like
we're kind of seeing a recipe. Have had to beat
this South Carolina team because if you watch them like,
don't stay no, well, yes, obviously, but a ton of height.
They don't have a lot of shooters on that team,
not like she's had in years past. You get up
on South Carolina early, you can beat them, like. That's
that's what Yukon did. They got up early. South Carolina
had to try to shoot their way out of it,
which they're not comfortable with, and Yukon just extended their lead.
Speaker 3: Wow, South Carolina was three to seventeen for three point
in gymp Your credit, Jamie says, Yukon was thirteen of eighteen.
Speaker 4: Of course, Ukon came out hot and South Carolina could
non match it. They've struggled with the.
Speaker 3: Thirteen of eighteen though. Ssh, hey, do you have that
Frankie Munez video? I can get it, Give me that
because I guess our boy Frankie Munez Malcolm in the
Middle Fame. Of course he races trucks on Uh what
is the NASCAR Truck Series now used to be Bush
back in the day. Yeah, our guy got I think
tenth Yeah, at Daytona which is over the weekend. That's crazy,
you know, that's great.
Speaker 5: It's actually really good.
Speaker 3: Like he's a true professional driver, and you look at
how excited our guy is after the race.
Speaker 8: We finished eleventh. You know, I couldn't last for anything better.
I think this truck was so fast.
Speaker 3: I mean like we were the.
Speaker 8: Second in the second pack. I passed all the second pack,
had a half a straight away to the front pack,
and by myself caught them. So I feel like I
can't wait for Talladega. You know what I mean, because
this truck's good.
Speaker 5: Do you feel you have to justify yourself?
Speaker 3: But I mean all the media, all tension.
Speaker 7: Well, I mean I'm out and finished the race, run
all the labs and have a respectable day.
Speaker 8: Have to be Look, it's one of those like how
I put it, I know I have to prove myself here,
and you know last year I didn't have the opportunity
to do that, and I not that this fully does that. Right,
This is great, This is a step you know, ho
I earned respect. You know, you know I'm in the
forward technical meeting with the other drivers, and you know
I still think they look even though we're you know,
matter of facture teammates, I still don't I think they
know what I can do or not, you know what
I mean? So I want to earn their respect too,
and the only way to do that is to do
it on track, you know what I mean, it happens
like this, and we were smart, you know, I thought
there'd be a lot more Rex early in the race,
you know, so like I started second guessing the decision
of like hanging back as Stone's wrecking, But man, it
worked out.
Speaker 2: I'm happy.
Speaker 3: This was This was great.
Speaker 2: This was awesome.
Speaker 3: There you go, maybe T eleven finish, that was awesome.
I mean you could tell he's just so. It makes
me so happy. Yeah, Like I get goosebumps. You're so
happy because he's so happy. Yeah, And and that's cool
to hear him talk about, you know, earning the respect
of his peers. Because yeah, of course everybody's side eyeing him.
But my man has committed to this lifestyle and I'm
excited to see what he can do with Daga. I mean,
he's been in this game a long time too, though, right, Yeah,
I think he's he's been grinding his way up.
Speaker 4: He actually raced in this last year as well, Like
he didn't he didn't do well, but he was in
it last year's.
Speaker 3: It's the Craftsman truck series, chat Is said, makes more sense.
I thought he did do something there used to be Uh,
I don't know, I went there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, my dad was a really big Rusty Wallace fan.
Speaker 3: I was big Martin Tricks junior fan bag. And they
used to drive the number three Best Pro and it
just looked a lot like I know, I just like
number three reminded me a little man. I loved the
Tide car. The TI car was always tight, big orange,
I mean old picture of like a Marlborough cars. That's
that's that's that's hard to beat the straight up racing reds.
Hell yeah, cowboy killers who drove Champ Trix absolutely drove
the three. No he no, he didn't.
Speaker 4: Trucks drove the one. Three was retired dyl Earnhardt. By
the time, Drux was the best bro, the best one.
Trux was number one when he drove for best Bro. Wow,
you're probably I didn't want to be that guy. Oh
I think you're right, you're right, But damn so, I
just made that all up my head. That's crazy. We
can winner tom Izzo. He passed Bob Knight for the
most wins in Big ten history three hundred and fifty
four passing the three hundred and fifty three for Bob
Knight and anyone who watched Alabama Auburn over the weekend.
That was a phenomenal games, and I Broom proved that
he is one of the best, if not the best,
player in college. I thought the game sucked from Alabama sucked.
Speaker 3: Yeah, some respect. Maybe maybe it's just I'm not a
good I don't.
Speaker 4: I thought it was crazy. Anything you wanted it had.
Speaker 3: There were seven thousand whistles, there were no I don't.
I don't blame action stopped every twenty.
Speaker 4: I don't blame the teams for much as happened. I
mean I shot it well. At times, they went on
the runs you needed to. There were defensive plays like
the other. Both teams looked really good. It was a
for sure one versus two.
Speaker 3: There's a ton of free throws like eighty wasn't there? Yeah?
I felt like it, Yes a lot.
Speaker 4: Also speaking of free throws, Oklahoma when they beat LSHU
this weekend, twenty one twenty one of twenty one from
free throws. Who Texas women's basketball team, I can tell
us you twenty one of twenty one from free throws?
Speaker 6: Tell you when Games Weekend loser, whoever hung Terrence Shannon
Junior jersey at Helois retirement.
Speaker 5: I put it in that. They put it upside down.
I put it in the dock. Yeah, I mean, come on.
Speaker 3: Bro, what are we doing?
Speaker 5: You get one job.
Speaker 3: You can't be up there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you can't do something like that. That's just messed up.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 6: You know, this feels like a deep or like Kurby
R enthusiasm skyah and that.
Speaker 3: Is perfect Lodger. It needs the Yeah, it needs the
curve music. Drug guy.
Speaker 4: Look, he's just standing there looking at it.
Speaker 3: He's like, what.
Speaker 4: He's not They're not clapping, like nobody's excited about this.
Speaker 5: That's crazy.
Speaker 3: Oh man, oh poor fella. Ah whatever, it's funny. It's
more memorable now, right, Like we would have been talking
about Tarn Channon Junior not for that now. You know
he got his jersey retired.
Speaker 7: That was a quick retirement, huh right, he just yeah,
he just finished the last season he played one year there.
Speaker 6: God, can you imagine being the person that was in
charge of that though, and then it like my heart
would have.

We gotta get back on the schedule. We've been a
little hit hit or miss. There may on Mondays. I'm
looking at the group text between my some of my
former wrole player friends, and one of them is complaining
about I don't know where they live. I think Nashville,
but one of them is complaining about the daycare is
trying to charge him forty K for daycare. I'm sorry
a year forty thousand dollars, yes, into which Someboddy Will
says forty K for daycare. They teaching physics and ish.
Speaker 4: Right, I'm thinking about the daycare like the competing one
on Daddy Daycare. Remember when they all show up and
they're wearing.
Speaker 3: Like suits and stuff you've never seen Daddy daycare.
Speaker 4: Oh, you gotta watch it. So I think, well, there's
there's like a super expensive daycare like down the street,
and they're like super strict.
Speaker 5: I don't even think, well, since we.
Speaker 3: Should start toddler training programs charts fifty K for doing
speed drills and stuff.
Speaker 5: Don't think rent for an entire years forty k.
Speaker 3: You want your kid to be fast, Well, you get
what you paid for. Give us fifty k a year.
I don't pay on daycare.
Speaker 7: Good god, man, I barely pay half of that for
four children to wishing to go to school.
Speaker 3: School. Yeah, it's like that's insane. Almost half of that.
See that's that. I mean, that's that Nashville Austin Labs. Man,
my god, that's crazy. You gotta go, you gotta go
bar some money for daycare. I mean, I don't know.
It's funny because you could be you could be like, uh, okay,
like what do they need to do to justify forty k?
Speaker 4: Make sure your kid gets their first nil? Deal on them?
Speaker 8: Right?
Speaker 3: Like, I I'm not even entirely sure. I'm not even
entirely sure what I mean. Obviously everything needs to take
care of, but like, I don't even know that there's
anything that you could do for the mental or physical
development of a child to to make that worth. No,
Is it just a way of weeding out commoners so
you don't have to deal with filth? You like think
you're above it, and you're like, oh, yes, sold, this way,
we'll only have very rich friends in watching. Not unreal.
I guess you don't love your kids enough. Yeah, see exactly,
I'd pay fifty get your true JB true true. No.
Uh like I guess there's nothing wrong, but that's what
you want to do. But damn couple of people saying
how they paid twenty five k a year and it
doesn't even include diapers and food and stuff. Wow my god,
bruh are we in their own business? What I mean?
Speaker 7: I would never to be fair, never want We're not.

Speaker 4: No, we like we like, we like rip ripped it out.
It was hard sitting there like scratching.
Speaker 3: It took. It took a couple of weeks.
Speaker 6: Next Wednesday, LSU will face their first ranked opponent in
Dallas Baptist.
Speaker 3: DBU at Arlington. You know, everybody says l s U's DBU,
but the real DBU. I'm not sure the twentieth people
are talking we have been dB in a minute. True
for you, for sure, very true. Either what Ohio State
or Alabama gets to be DBU now, unfortunately i'd len
Ohio State. Okay, So since we're here, guys, I gotta
think Clemson maybe a top three national championship favorite next year.
Speaker 4: And they got they got pretty good odds.
Speaker 7: Huh, somehow played some of the most freshman snaps in
the country. K Clubnant coming back or still questions that receiver.
Speaker 3: But yeah, but those tresure receivers look prettydamn good against
Texas that last game in the second half. Yeah, they
got a beast lineman or beast d line featuring two
first team All Americans. I forgot they got will help
the pass rush of from Purdue like their first transfer ever. Bruh,
you want to talk about a new LSU line. You
want to talk about getting thrown in the freaking deep end.
You're going to Clemson and you gotta face that D line.
I hate it. I hate it. Guys. Oh man, what
are you doing? Stop? I'm just there and just go
to church. Look, I think it's okay to be scared
this far out and then you then you hype yourself
up and you like, you know, you say fit the
closer you get. But right now, I do not like it.
I do not like this. Sam I am.
Speaker 5: I love a challenge.
Speaker 3: I do too, But would it be so funny if
you're a little old Dabbo after we all talked about
how Clemson was done, can't hack it in the new era,
and little old Dabo gets back to natic. I mean,
in all honesty, again, this team maybe outside of having
like the real great skill positions that they had in
the past. This team does feel the most like a
Clemson championship team that he's had in a long time. Yep,
still don't have excuse. Still gotta go win. Yeah no,
I agree. I agree again, But I'm not picking el shit,
not not just because Clemson. I wouldn't pick them if
they were playing Perdue Fort Wayne, I'm not. I'm not
doing it until they prove they can.
Speaker 7: Right now, as we sit here on February the seventeenth,
Clemson two and a half pore favorite. They have lines,
they have lines.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, over the total over under is fifty six
and a half. Is he under the play? I have
no idea it does. JV. Senior says, I for real
can't imagine a world where we lose to Clemson. But
I also can't imagine a world where we win a
season opener. Quite the conundrum. Yeah, true, true, true. I mean, guys,
it is the most clear example of the price that
has been paid for flying so close to the sun
in twenty nineteen. You have not won a season over
since nineteen. It's pre pandemic, I mean, multiple presents over
half a decade, and this is actually the toughest team
going into it that you're gonna face like again, I
think I think obviously Florida State year two is the
best team that you faced without a doubt in those openers.
But you didn't know what going in like you are
to know how good Clemson's going to be going into
this year. It's actually insane.
Speaker 4: I'd argue this might be l Toshu's best team though,
since the like going into the season opener.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's her maybe so maybe Yeah, You're probably right
on that, de Lebon. I'm still haunted by the Clemson
loss in Lanta and chick Fla Bowl and thirty Yeah,
that thing sucked. You ran ninety something plays to their
like forty five and you lost the game. Looking back
on that game, like watching it was really bad. Jeremy
Hill had a good game, you know, like you mentioned
running all the plays. Those are really talented Clemson team
looking back that it wasn't like DeAndre Hopkins, the.
Speaker 4: DeAndre Hopkins, Sammy Watkins, Martavis Bryant, Taj Boyd at quarterback.
I think Andre Ellington was on the team. He played
in the NFL for number year like that was. That
was a talented Clemson team.
Speaker 3: Bilvis says Teabop fear monger. N LSU fans tails all
the time. Okay, I mean, come on, guys, what when
my sunshine pumper, my fear monger, What the hell are
we talking about? I picked him to win, but for
five years in a row.
Speaker 5: Shut up, and you're not gonna pick him the year
that they are gonna win.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, he said that. I mean we both
said like, no he said that. Leaving Vegas. Yeah we did.
I walked around that pool all saturder and be like,
you can.
Speaker 2: Get me four, but nobody gets me five.
Speaker 3: This is where we draw the line. And then you
lost to a USC team that ended up being dog water.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean so did Mississippi State U c l A.
Wasn't anything to rip. I true? True was the best?
Like that was the only good team?
Speaker 3: Yeah true? You're actually right? Oh God, all right, more,

Speaker 1: Welcome back to the best morning sports show around sorta.
It's off the bench with Hester and T Bob.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna send you this Jake. Actually, I'm gonna drop
it in the doc and Taya. You can just put
this on in the background of the segment. I'm gonna
drop it under NFL Story of the Day. It doesn't
need sound, but it's Lorenzo Neil blocking for Mike Alstott.
Highlights their bucks right Yeah, when they're on Tampa together.
Right now, it is time for a take day NFL story.
Speaker 1: Next time for Daday's NFL Story of the Day Day
your daily dose of NFL news from Taylor Sharp.
Speaker 4: So, I was planning on talking about Travis Hunter, but
Teabob link this Jonathan Martin thing in the chat earlier
and we had no.
Speaker 3: I want to go in depth on it, but I
haven't read the full article yet, So I.
Speaker 4: Have it right here for you. Jonathan Martin. If you
guys remember he was with the Miami Dolphins. This was
back in twenty twelve. He was a second round pick
in twenty thirteen, played just seven games before seeking medical
help for emotional distress.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Martin says.
Speaker 4: Reports soon came out that he had been the victim
of persistent bullying and teasing my Richie incognito, Mike Pouncy,
John Jerry, the fellow O lineman. Yeah, we've heard the
story mainly Incognito. Yes, Incognito was kind of the one
that was highlighted. He was a wringler. He actually got
indefinitely suspended for that season. Yeah, and it also resulted
in the firing of the Dolphins offensive line coach. Well,
Jonathan Martin's got a little bit of explaining to do
because he recently did an interview with ESPN saying he
doesn't believe he was ever bullied. He said that people
had their own read on the situation. He said that,
he said right here, He said, I hadn't even told
my coaches. He said, I mentioned some things to my mother,
and she obviously had her own read on the situation.
But I always pushed back on the notion of bullying.
He said, I hadn't even told my coaches, hadn't told anyone,
and then suddenly it's on ESPN. I never believed for
a second I was being bullied. It's a story I've
been trying to fix for ten years.
Speaker 3: He said something about how he views himself as an
alpha or something.
Speaker 4: That's yeah, and then came out like deering the thing
and well, he never he never played again in the NFL.
Speaker 3: But my question is why then did he go along
for the money?
Speaker 4: He yeah, he went along with it. And Okay, first off,
like this dude's about to get the crapsuit out of
him for sure. I imagine Incognito missed a lot of
game checks being indefinitely suspended.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean is tweeting about you tried to ruin
my life, all this sort of stuff that Aaron was tweeting, like,
you tried to ruin my boys life.
Speaker 4: So if you guys remember, I don't know if you
saw this. About a year ago, messages were leaked between
Incognito and Jonathan Martin kind of about this and like
they were friendly text messages between the two of them, like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, not look like a guy I remember in the
time covering the story and being like this is the
kind of you know, this is the ribbon that goes
on in these situations.
Speaker 4: Incognito suspended for the whole season, the offensive line coach
gets fired. This guy might have to pay a pretty
penny for going along with this for as long as
he did. He said that, uh, he wanted to frame
himself as an alpha like you mentioned in the latest
ESBN interviews, Bro.
Speaker 3: That boat has sailed, Dog, I'm sorry, you know, like,
I don't care. I'm not I'm not like super Annie
Jonathan Martin, but that boat sailed a long time.
Speaker 4: He did go on to say, like, you know, there
were there were comments made by Incognito and others that
could be considered like insensitive. He's like, but it was
nothing more than like, you know, banter. He's like, I
never thought I was being bullied. I'm like, okay, that's fine.
Speaker 3: Well, there was Cognito sort of a viral at the
time where he's saying the end word, not with a
hard R, but he's saying it like publicly. But he's
with the Pouncy Brothers. Yeah, yeah, like it was clearly
accepted within the parameters of their friendship. Not saying you
should or should like I'm not saying that's right, but
it was like it was not anything that was at
the time crazy seeming anybody in a major lock in this.
He didn't.
Speaker 4: He didn't just single out in Cognito, like he mentioned
Pouncy and them saying similar things. So like he says
he wasn't bullied, he never thought he was. Somehow the
story leaked to ESPN. He doesn't know how it happened.
But he just decided to go along with it for
ten years. It Incognito suspended for the rest of the year.
They actually woud up cutting him. He had to go
play for the Raiders, and then the Dolphins offensive line
coach gets fired too.
Speaker 3: This is a classic Javier Cate need it too moment too,
because he's saying what he went alonger for ten years,
but he's been trying to get a change ten years.
Speaker 4: And it's what he said, how hard you tried?
Speaker 3: But s imah so that I would say anyway, there
it is. That's a good story today. Good job when
the Pounty brothers give you the pass. Yeah? True? Anybody again,
those are two bad dudes back in the day. Dude,
good god, they were good at football.
Speaker 4: For what it's worth. Richie Incognito actually posted this week
after this interview came out. He said, look, Jonathan Martin
couldn't cut it in the NFL, so he quit and
his mom blamed me. So Incognito believes kind of like
Martin that like his mom maybe leading the story. He said,
Legacy media pushed this narrative far too long, too bad.
It was all a lie. They lied to protect him
and his money. He quit the team. He had every
right to uh claw back and try to get that money,
but not at the expense of me and others.
