Speaker 1: What headd and y'all welcome in our number three of OTB. Here.
On this Wednesday, Martite twenty twenty five, some NFL news
breaking just a little bit of go the Minnesota Vikings
saying that they have fielded multiple calls for trades for
JJ McCarthy. They have denied them all that they are
moving forward with McCarthy as their quarterback. Yes, they want
to bring an event, but they are not pursuing Aaron Rodgers.
So I don't know how much we've kept you up
to date here with all the current dynamics, but basically
everything left to be decided with the quarterback situation was
in a holding pattern as Aaron Rodgers had the Vikings
number one on his wish list and was waiting to
hear back whether or not the Vikings wanted to work
with him. It has appeared that they have now said no,
which I mean, surely now this Aaron will make a choice,
stop the the the Brett Farv dragging of the feet,
and surely that choice will be Pittsburgh. Right did anybody disagree?
Speaker 2: I don't. I think that this is a disaster waiting
to happen for him in Pittsburgh because he clearly doesn't
want to be there, but I think that's where he's.
Speaker 3: Going to go well side, aside from him not wanting
to be there, like it's just going to be a disaster.
Look at the Jets last season.
Speaker 1: So I'm so I'm taking a bit of a different
tact here. I don't think it's disaster now. I think
he has pissed some people off with him not maybe
being as like I think there are going to be
Pittsburgh fans and well even players have felt like he
should have jumped at Pittsburgh. I mean there's some very
interesting Cam Hayward audio where Cam Hayward's on his podcast
and his coast his joke with him like hey man,
like you gotta get out of the NL bag, you
gotta go recruit Aaron Rodgers and and Cam was basically like,
I ain't doing any of that crap, Like either you
want to be a Steeler you don't. It's that simple.
That's the pitch. So like, yes, there there are gonna
be Steeers that are rub the wrong wave. Eventually it's
up at Pittsburg. Words I think you will, But I
do think it's a very good marriage. I think statistically
he was not bad at all last year. Statistically, he
was much better than Russell Wilson. And I think the
problem with the Jets was, well the Jets, whereas the
Steelers are well the Steelers, so like you know, they're
gonna win nine to ten games off the bat. And
then if you add Aaron Rodgers over Russell Wilson, I
think you're actually getting better at that position.
Speaker 2: Now you have DK Metcalf. That's actually it's weird. That's
actually the exact reason I don't think it's going to work.
There's a reason Rogers didn't want to go there, and
it has nothing to do with the roster. Look who
they have Dk Metcalf at George Pickens. You got Pat
Fryarmouth who's a solid tight end. If you get a
good offensive line in front of you, you'll have a
defense to help you out. Like you have everything a
quarterback could want, and you still did not want to
go there. I also don't think him and Mike Tomlin
are going to jail.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 2: Rogers is h I want to do it my own
way guy, and Tomlin's kind of an older school guy,
a little bit of a harder nos coach. I don't
think that's going to work at all. And then look like,
let's be honest, like Aaron Rodgers, great player at one
point in his career, but Aaron Rodgers has kind of
blamed everybody else for his own shortcomings.
Speaker 1: He couldn't win at.
Speaker 2: Green Bay Force his way out, I'm hand picking everybody
I want to play with me on the Jets. That
doesn't happen, Well, clearly it's not me. They fire Robert
sala You were worse without Robert Salad than you were
with him. Can't win with the Jets, Well that's fine.
I'm gonna move on somewhere else I can win. Like,
look in the mirror a little bit.
Speaker 1: To be fair, we have learned on the solid front
though that actually Sawi got fired for wanting to keep.
Speaker 2: No I know, I know, but what I'm saying is
like it didn't matter who the coach was, Like we
can blame the Jets all we want, but like Rogers
was still an issue there and can't win there, I'm
gonna move on to somewhere else. It's just kind of
a pattern.
Speaker 1: And no, stats don't tell the whole story, but I mean,
damn near four thousand yards and twenty eight tons.
Speaker 2: No, he wouldn't as bad as we make him out
to be, for sure. It's just we're winning close games.
Was the big problem. Zach Wilson had a better winning
percentage with the Jets than Aaron Rodgers. You think about
that for a second. Yes, that's very fine.
Speaker 1: But it's a Jets. You know, it's the Jets and
this is the Steelers. In theory, it should be much
better even if Aaron Rodgers still sucks. I don't know.
I think I think it makes the most sense. I
think in a playoff game, you probably feel pretty good
about Rogers being your guy. But but but maybe he is. Washington.
I'm just guilty of falling forward again, Jake, even we did.
Speaker 4: If Yeah, sorry flying out talking business in the whole way.
If I was choosing between Rogers and Wilson, I'm going
Aaron Rodgers. I do think there's more left there. You're
still talking about an elit arm talent. You're talking about
somebody that has has been through the fray, and I
know Russell Wilson has as well. But Russell Wilson's skill
set has quickly declined, yea, certainly compared to Aaron Rodgers.
So if you're not going to go young, if you're
not going to bring in somebody else, if you're not
going to resign justin fields which they didn't. I think
there's more life to Aaron Rodgers right now than Russell Wilson,
And certainly with the receivers that you went and got.
I think an elite arm talent liking Aaron Rodgers down
the field, DK metcalf the you know, the receiver room
looks completely different. Now I'm going Aaron Rodgers of a
Russell Wilson.
Speaker 1: Uh. The other part of this and and so we're
in agreement with Jack there, Jake. The other part of
this though is, let's say, and maybe Rogers doesn't want
to go there because the style of offense kind of
your point like those be my concerns would be like
kind of style of offense. And then Aaron has become
such a me guy. Can he will he buy into
the Steeler culture? And that's what's kind of I don't
know if you'd call it a self fulfilling prophecy. I
don't know if ironic is technically being used correctly here,
but my instinct is to call it a bit ironic
that in his actions right now, Aaron Rodgers is reinforcing
the biggest critique of him, which is just that that
he's all about Aaron Rodgers in the Ultimate team Sport
and this whole debacle again is just reinforcing and strengthening
to anybody who holds that opinion. So those are my concerns.
But here's the deal for the Steelers. So that's from
Rogers perspective. If the Steelers don't get Aaron Rodgers, well
then who's left? Yeah, are you rolling with Mason Rudolph?
Because that's not good.
Speaker 4: You would you would have to go like a Jamis went,
like Jamis Wentson type, you know what I'm yeah, New
York right right, somebody's got starting experience. It's been up,
it's been down, hasn't been consistent, but you you would
have to go get somebody that has at least a
pulse for Derek Carr.
Speaker 1: Yeah, still too much dead money on the books, yeah,
I mean, but but who is that out there nowadays?
Speaker 4: Though?
Speaker 1: Or nowadays? I mean at this point in the process, Taylor,
who's still left?
Speaker 2: I mean, not much like we we kind of named it, right.
I don't know if Jamis was officially signed with the Giants.
I mean I think that, but I mean it's basically
Rogers Russell Wilson, who you clearly don't want Jamis. I mean,
that's kind of your top three guys right now. I
mean it's not there's there's not a ton of proven name.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, where did they just bring Minshew into? Is
it Miami?
Speaker 2: No, he's mahomes Is back up.
Speaker 1: They brought him in for the vibe, brought him in
and just make the look I mean, because I mean
Jimmy g Re signed with l A.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the guys that we're talking about, uh, you know,
Mac Jones went to San Francisco, Joshua Dobbs went to
New England, went to Baltimore Ravens. Jacoby Brissett went to
the Cardinals, Minshew went to the Chiefs. Let's see, Heineken
went back to the Chargers, Marcus Mariota went back to
the Commanders, Daniel Jones went to the Colts.
Speaker 1: So so you really have I mean, the Steelers almost
have to be all in on Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, or
it's Mason.
Speaker 4: Rudolph kind of minus the kind of I think you.
Speaker 2: Beg Wilson to come back.
Speaker 4: Let's see who so you have.
Speaker 1: All right, here's well, that's true. You still here's.
Speaker 4: Here's the list of here's the list of quarterbacks. And
I'm only going to say the ones that I think
everybody would at least recognize their name. So we mentioned
Aaron Rodgers. You have Trey Lance, You have Drew Locke,
you have Joe Flacco. Jameis Winston's not official yet, so
you do have Jameis Winston, Carson Wentz, case Keenum, Uh
Easton Stick Western Branch, Josh Johnson, Teddy Bridge Water, Russell Wilson,
Tyler Huntley, Jeff Driscoll, Sam Ellinger.
Speaker 1: Uh, Sam Ellinger, I saw a landra perkup? Just now?
Where's uh Sam algersil Elite?
Speaker 4: Yeah, they've been back up in Indie.
Speaker 1: Damn okay, Sam?
Speaker 4: Good on you broby Trey Lance number what three pick
overall traded like an entire draft basically for him, which,
by the way, I appreciate the night still reference.
Speaker 1: Are the are the well, I mean, I think of
you every time we do it.
Speaker 4: Yes, I love it.
Speaker 1: Are the Niners finally paying for their Trey Lance sins
because that team has completely fallen apart?
Speaker 2: Well, you're you're paying for you don't have a quarterback
on a seventh round rookie deal anymore.
Speaker 4: That for sure. But also what Teba was talking about,
they would have had like four more players or yi
deals if they wouldn't have.
Speaker 1: And instead now they've basically had all their vets be like, nah,
we're done.
Speaker 5: Deal.
Speaker 1: The rest actively wanted to keep. Apparently, like Sala was,
Kasala's in Tampan again now right crazy he went back.
Apparently Sala was like begging green Law to stay and
being like, come on, man, let's finish when we were
so close a few years and he said, nahus So there's.
Speaker 2: A rumor that Brandon and you could be on the
trade block again.
Speaker 4: I'm over his story, Like, yeah, he's making thirty million
dollars a year and you're you're not that guy.
Speaker 2: No, he's not a he's not a player.
Speaker 4: You're not thirty million dollars per year. Ago he's making
over thirty million.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was That was a bad signing.
Speaker 4: It was damn So if you're the Steelers, you don't
sign Aaron Rodgers, I think you immediately go to the
Joe Flacco, Jamis Winston, Carson Wentz.
Speaker 1: There is no way Joe Flacco has still played.
Speaker 4: Football seventeen years. He was my draft class he played
with the Colts.
Speaker 1: Was last year, the year where he came off the
couch or was held two years ago.
Speaker 2: They went with the playoffs.
Speaker 4: Say yeah, I will never forget my first time meeting to.
Speaker 1: Probably like he's really well dressed like me.
Speaker 4: Well, I told you the story before he replaced Matt
Ryan at the Senior Bowl. He came in he had
a sweater vest on on hard tuck hard tuck into
some khaki pants, hell penny loafers, no socks.
Speaker 1: Replacing Matt Ryan with Joe Flacco is the whitest thing
I've ever heard in my life. I mean that is
just like, yeah, stereotypical white bro and it's like that
is sweater vest into sweater vest right there.
Speaker 4: Matt had a little bit more juice than Joe, but yeah,
you're not totally off on that.
Speaker 1: He's in the chat. I have as many playoff wins
as Derek Carr Is.
Speaker 4: Trey Lance one of the top five worst picks of
all time. It has to be him for what you
traded for and then what you got out of it.
Speaker 2: So it's funny you you brought this up.
Speaker 1: I mean yes for what you because what you gave
up for him when you absolutely did not have to
at all, know is what is so extreme there.
Speaker 2: What's what's funny now is Jake just mentioned mac Jones
is now there is the backup. If you remember when
they traded that pick to get up to three, everybody
thought they were getting mac Jones and not Trey Lance.
Now Mac Jones is there.
Speaker 4: He sucks too, not great mccorky.
Speaker 2: Trey Lance though, like if you'll remember, that was the
his last year in college was twenty twenty when they
canceled everything. So North Dakota State had like that one
showcase game literally just to put him out there and
let him play. He'd like one touchdown, three picks. He
wasn't He wasn't even good in that one game.
Speaker 1: They looked that was a Josh Allen. But you know,
they went with it's Anthony richards an idea. They tried
to go with the guy who had the the physical superpower.
You know, I know he doesn't have the tape, but
look at the body. I know he's a bad boy,
but I can fix him. Josh Allen is going to
cause and it's not just him you've seen him before.
It he's such a prime example of this. He's going
to cause so many bad draft picks thanks to what
he did because his college tape and career was god awful.
Speaker 2: Well remember that's like Cleveland even stayed away from Josh
Allen because there were so many people that's like, hey,
Cleveland's gonna good draft Josh Allen, and they're like, no,
we that's.
Speaker 1: An interesting hypothet. Yeah, is Josh Allen Josh Allen if
he goes to Cleveland. You know what I'm saying, a
lot of people, what does he suck?
Speaker 2: It's hard to say, because like he had a ton
I mean, outside of the dig years, he had in
a ton of help with him in Buffalo anyways.
Speaker 1: Always, I mean I would think he would be good
no matter what. But it's just the power of the
ability of Cleveland to just take quarterbacks and dismantle them
molecule by molecule.
Speaker 2: Is being a tougher division is a big thing. I mean,
it would be Alan Lamar Burrow all in the same division.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Trey Lance for his career, has played in twelve games,
completed fifty six percent of his passes, barely over one
thousand yards only seven yards per attempt, five touchdowns, four interceptions,
number three overall.
Speaker 1: Pick Oh that's crazy brouh. Yeah, and now San Fran
feels like they're done. They're done right at the time too,
when they're gonna have to pay rock party weird weird time,
how quickly the inking company? Right? So John Lynn took
him like a genius one day and now looking just
like you blew it.
Speaker 4: You run up and if you had one super Bowl
title in that run, then it's worth it. They didn't
finish it. They got close, got there a couple of times.
Speaker 1: He's so so so close.
Speaker 4: I couldn't finish it though, And so you know it
was the juice juice worth the squeeze. They didn't juice back.
Speaker 1: What oh yeah, yeah, I saw that. I saw that.
So they haven't completely lost themselves quite yet. Yeah, Elandra,
are you good to get Margarita's to Are you sure? Okay? Yeah?
I know you're powering through it. I'm proud of you,
but it seems like your health is deteriorating. Now we'll
get a time we can do the time stuff affair.
All right, So there's a little NFL talk. Look at
us guys, look at us. A little NFL talk, Uh,
when we get back, maybe more NFL talk. We still
have an NFL Story of the Day day that we
have to get to and Taylor is linked one of
the more wild stories that you will hear. Keep it
locked here on Off.
Speaker 4: The bench, Off the bench, Welcome back to more sports talk.
Speaker 2: What's some other stuff mixed in Off the bench with
Hester and.
Speaker 4: T Bomb Huh?
Speaker 1: Welcome back to o TV, t Bablandra, Jake and Tay
hanging out the day. Have anybody having a great day here?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Tybe, what do you want to talk about?
Speaker 3: You sounded like an auctioneer.
Speaker 1: That's what I was going for, but then I ran
out of stuff talking about Jameson's Tennessee and is inevinsible
after all? Yeah, she missed it. Tennessee losing a midweek
game last night. I've always said, if you lose a
midweek gave me suck, and so Tennessee sucks and Texas
sucks now. So get ready, guys, sweep incoming in Austin
for the Tigers this week, and they're going to sweep
them dirty as horns down, having long horns.
Speaker 4: I'm just glad we have a coach that realizes midweek
games do matter?
Speaker 1: How about.
Speaker 4: Lay a game? And like mid week game, I'm like,
just put on the uniform. Were their umpires, were their
fans in the scores kept?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 4: Yeah, there was a winner and there was a loser.
Speaker 3: Yeah, didn't count for the record.
Speaker 1: Shout out UTSA and shout out East Tennessee State.
Speaker 4: Oh, let's go Peter Burns UTSA.
Speaker 3: Did he play golf there?
Speaker 4: Meet me?
Speaker 2: Who was the U? Is it the Frank Wilson that
was there?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was the head coach. Well, and how.
Speaker 4: Could you forget about Marcus Stavenport.
Speaker 1: Incredible UTSA d Drudger Marchin, Marcus Eavenport Yeah, uh, who's
still in the league? Actually sold you?
Speaker 4: Okay, you get a first round pick next to your name,
you get seventeen chances?
Speaker 1: How about that U T and U T both going down? Yeah?
I know that's that's been the funny meme that's been
making the rounds this free agency is uh former first
round Yeah, former first round pick? Might as well say
this dude's ass.
Speaker 2: You know who they're You know Utsa's quarterback is he's
the next great NFL backup?
Speaker 4: Hold on.
Speaker 2: I have no idea Owen McCown, No way, let's go due.
Speaker 6: So he's one of them, uh, Josh McCown son speaking
of all time, Cha team, all time jaw line, Josh
and Luke don't really look like each other.
Speaker 2: No, but Owen looks a lot like But Josh is
the one with the jaw line right.
Speaker 4: Yes. Yeah. Luke played at Louisiana Tech, was with the
Saints for a little bit at the end. Josh was
Cardinals was definitely probably where he had his best run.
And I believe he played at Sam Houston State.
Speaker 1: Josh McCown not to be confused with Cade McNown.
Speaker 4: Can anybody in here tell me where Cad McNown played
college football.
Speaker 1: UCLA?
Speaker 2: No, I can't. It's it's a smaller one.
Speaker 4: You weren't really supposed to guess because you brought him up.
What it was? U c l a, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1: Looked it up right here. I just googled Kate mcdown
like thirty seconds ago before you ask question. Before Hell, No,
I had no idea was it?
Speaker 4: U c l a. Yeah, he's a lefty, got drafted
by the Bears first round.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: I had something to talk about here, and I keep
forgetting what it was. Oh, did y'all see you remember
pretty quick? Did y'all see Danny Stutsman's tattoo? Yeah? Lines
shout out Brian. By the way, Brian Burgess earlier in
the chat said he's been taking linesman, he's feeling the difference.
Did y'all see Stanny Stutsman's Texas tattoo? He got no,
So it's very funny to me. Danny Stutsman, super badass
Oklahoma linebacker.
Speaker 4: Yeah, ran fast combine.
Speaker 1: What do you run?
Speaker 4: It was like four seven four eight? No, no, no, no, no,
he ran fast. I'm gonna look it up because I
want to give him this proper respect.
Speaker 1: But whatever, the dude's an absolute badass. And some time ago,
it could have been years ago, I'm not tell sure
when the social media post was, but he said, woke
up with a strange tattoo and it's a picture and
on his thigh he has the long Horns logo upside down. Yeah,
so he has horns down in his thigh. But what's
weird about that is from his perspective, if it's a
right side up Texas logo. So every time he craps,
every time he cranks hell. Every time he just looks down,
he's seen a correctly uh positioned Texas logo on his leg.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that feels like the definition of rent free felling.
Speaker 2: A quick pack.
Speaker 4: By the way, you're in a four or five to
two three, two thirty three.
Speaker 1: Absolute badass. Yeah, unbelievable bad ass. I don't know, like
I mean, maybe against Texas because if.
Speaker 4: He didn't have like a win, that's that's rent free.
Speaker 2: We know we know he won two years ago when
Gabriel was there.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: True, so he's got at least one win.
Speaker 4: I don't know man three years or four any any
white I don't know. I'm petty. I love the pettiness.
Speaker 1: I love the idea behind it. I just find it
funny that it's like correctly positioned.
Speaker 4: To hit sigh is a weird spot to get it.
I'm gonna be honest with you a little sexual too,
like why not get it somewhere else where you wouldn't
see it, like you said, But I love I love
the pettiness, though.
Speaker 3: Stutsman's the one that like. At SEC Media Days last year,
the Oklahoma Reporter asked Harold Perkins, what do you think
about Danny Stutsman. He's like, I don't know who that is.
Speaker 1: To be fair, uh Stutsman, no way better it's a
linebacker than that was still very funny interaction. We're Perkins
was like, yeah, like, what are you talking about? If
Stutsman was at OU for four years he went to
and two, I.
Speaker 3: Do love that, sure he has he was kiss Yeah.
Speaker 1: Good god. In twenty two, Texas be them forty nine
to zero and then thirty four to three. Last year, invitables, Bro,
what is going on?
Speaker 5: Dude?
Speaker 1: Come on, Naggie, see if you can do something? Even
though technically now do we have to hate Jim since
Oklahoma's Elshu's new rival? No, but ooh you know that's
what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: I mean, the last this guy.
Speaker 3: Rival.
Speaker 1: They're trying to know, they're trying to make them right there.
They're the like you know Texas last game. Yeah, when
they redid everything.
Speaker 4: I like it? Which I like it.
Speaker 2: I think it makes so many more sense in Texas
A and M.
Speaker 4: We've played them in a national We've played them in
a national championship game, in a college football semi final,
so like there's something there.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, gymnastics, come on now, there's only two
the two teams in the country.
Speaker 2: That they've had some baseball battles over the years as well.
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not no it is. It is not
a rival yet, but this has better footing than Texas
A and M did when they tried to force that
text came off though.
Speaker 1: I mean it took a seven over time game.
Speaker 4: It took a seven overtime game for that to happen,
but it did.
Speaker 3: The rivalry A and M and L s U.
Speaker 4: I think it is L s U and Texas to
be the thing that.
Speaker 3: I mean that makes sense to.
Speaker 4: Massive brands in their state in baseball. For sure, they're
you know, they're kind of good in everything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but texts, I mean, I guess well, I mean,
I guess I was gonna.
Speaker 4: More rivals that are more important to them. That's that's
that's the issue with L. She doesn't have a true
L s U does not have a true rival. And
you can tell me what.
Speaker 1: Its pretty close, but they can suck it nervous.
Speaker 4: When I was in school, though, man, it's like nobody
even cared that we're playing. Also doesn't care always exactly
nobody cared.
Speaker 1: You don't like the Magnolia Trophy.
Speaker 4: Florida was our rival for you, it was somebody else, right, Yeah,
for like our fathers, yeah, old Miss our grandfathers. It
was too Lane.
Speaker 1: I hate everybody like Florida to us, but for Florida,
it's Georgia.
Speaker 2: Like nobody, nobody in the SEC considers l SU their
primary rival, no, because like even even old Miss d.
Speaker 4: Yeah Arkansas, Arkansas really wanted us to be their rival,
but she was like, we don't have to.
Speaker 1: No, screw that, dude, that's mine. I'm not one of
the LSU fans and craps in Arkansas.
Speaker 4: That's mine.
Speaker 1: They were good game, dude.
Speaker 2: In twenty eleven, they had that fourteen nothing lead on
y'all in Tiger Stadium. I mean, they were three in
the country.
Speaker 1: Again, there were so many red flags leading up to
that twenty eleven Natty, and it was all the last
games of the season where we would get down, the
offense would be got awful, Tyron would do something and
we would snowball.
Speaker 2: Them with Tyron had the punt return that game. Yeah yeah,
I'll just saying thing.
Speaker 1: We didn't even get a first down in the SEC
Championship in the first half and then Tyron returned upon
and everything else you know, got better. Sorry about it, Petrino,

Speaker 1: Arkansas being ranked number I mean that is crazy about
twenty eleven Arkansas being number three and the last game
of the season is pretty wild.
Speaker 2: They were rolling that year. I mean that was that
was what Tyler Wilson, Joe Adams, Yeah, jerryus Wright was
on that team.
Speaker 1: Is Tyler Wilson still in the NFL?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: No, I mean Jeff Driscoll is still there. Driscoll been
in the league six years? Oh really, some reason I
thought it was way longer. Six years A long time
bo No, No, I know, I know, I just think
of Jeff Driscoll as being older than that. For some reason.
Speaker 4: I think so.
Speaker 1: Alandri you said you watch a deep dive and Blake
Lively and Ryan Reynalds stethn how you hate them both? Yeah?
Speaker 3: They seem like terrible people.
Speaker 1: They've been like the most likable up to this point.
Speaker 3: What did you not see all like the Justin Baldoni
stuff that happened, and then little Blake.
Speaker 1: A little bit, but it was all against Baldoni when
I originally heard about it.
Speaker 2: It's flipped.
Speaker 3: So it's flipped and it actually makes a lot of sense.
Like he they were the ones that were putting out
the stories that he was like being bad on sense
stuff like that. And then if you look more, they
came out, like Justin Baldoni's lawyers came out with like
a bunch of screenshots of text messages between him and
Blake Lively that like she was being inappropriate, not that
she was being inappropriate, but the stuff that she accused
him of of being inappropriate she like. So one of
them was that she felt uncomfortable because he would come
into her trailer while she was breastfeeding or something like that. Right,
but they had like text messages that they release where
she was like I'm pumped or I'm breastfeeding, but come
in or something like that. So like it was she
was manipulating the entire thing to and they did it
for press, like they did it for press for the movie,
not realizing that it actually made it worse and overshadowed
the movie.
Speaker 1: Well, the whole movie too, is about like domestic violence.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also, like the other thing is is that
she was trying to put the attention on her because
she just came out with a hair care line, so
she's like also trying to promote her hair care line
and make it about her and it is Yeah, he is,
I'll give him that. But yeah, so they were at
first it was a civil complaint, but now they're suing,
and I don't think she's gonna win the lawsuit at all.
I think it's gonna be another like Amber Heard situation
where all this stuff comes out and everybody turns on
Blake instead of I'm still I'm.
Speaker 1: Still a little confused in where we landed completely on
the Amberheard. I still see a bit of both, but
it's it mainly people sided against her in the end, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, I didn't really see pretty.
Speaker 1: I feel like recently I've seen some blow but I've
seen some I don't know. I don't know Internet it's weird, man,
and it's weird. All that's I don't know that it
bums me out though, if indeed, I don't know. I
feel we saw like Reynolds and Lively were two of
the most well. Also, all these clip likable people, all these.
Speaker 3: Clips are resurfacing of her doing like media and stuff
like that and doing interviews, and she's actually extremely unlikable.
And I just don't know if I never paid attention
to either of them before. I mean, Ryan Reynolds, I
kind of did, but like Blake Lively, I haven't even
thought about her since Gossip Girls.
Speaker 1: Yeah so Savages, no idea, Savages good movie?
Speaker 3: You never saw it.
Speaker 1: Blake Lively getting dd down by two hotties. Okay, they're
all just like, they're all just so hot, they're just tight,
and they're dealing drugs and banging.
Speaker 3: Sounds right up my alley you, I mean, well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, after your uh comments earlier in your weeks in Pieburn,
I mean, it does kind of feel like you tried
up your alley to be fair.
Speaker 4: I don't know what we have coming back next, but
there is some very very exciting news in American sports.
Y'all might not care about it, but I do. Sounds
like coming up next gets a big deal.

Speaker 4: So we got a video laundre will we good to
sound with this video?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 4: So something that I know I've been asking for when
a lot of people haven't been asking for a long
time in an American sports is fine, here.
Speaker 5: Is motion relegation coming to the US. How do you
implement it? How long does it take?
Speaker 3: Pro rail would absolutely be it.
Speaker 2: It's time for us to be bold and antiasis and
make a move.
Speaker 5: Okay, through roacha releegation.
Speaker 1: We've opened over. It is finally here.
Speaker 4: So college football, no, but in American soccer, so the
USL has been a league and it's kind of been
a Triple A type league. Well in twenty twenty seven,
twenty eight, they're like, hey, we want to go for
the MLS. Yeah, we want to go after them.
Speaker 1: We want to.
Speaker 4: Compete, and they now are going to have three tiers
of America.
Speaker 1: But this isn't the MLS doing promotion relegation.
Speaker 4: No, but the USL has got some teams that you
know sell out, you know, fifteen thou twenty thousand, really
stadiums Yeah, they've got some very popular teams out some
big areas, and in twenty twenty seven to twenty eight
they kind of made announced went a couple of months
ago like hey, we're coming after the MLS. We're like, well, okay,
well that's not going to work. They've already established themselves.
But now with this and three different tiers, they're going
to have like professional sports have promotion relegation.
Speaker 1: So INTERESTI I wonder why the USL and MLS wouldn't work.
I mean, I guess I understand why, because they're separate entities,
but I would assume that the premiere of this would
be them working in concert with one another, where USL
would feed into MLS. But I guess the USL saying no, no,
we're trying to take your girl, not share her. That's
cool though, man, that's cool. I still have I'm still
cynical about it coming to college football eventually or some
bigger leagues where maybe there's more money in play. Nobody
wants to get kicked out. But if we do go
to the dark future of you know, in ten years,
have just like Big ten and SEC, I would love
some sort of promo rally system and play definitely the
most interesting. Go to ktiz widow coverage, kt oz Blinds
dot com, kt o z Blinds dot com and excuse me,
ktz Interiors and outdoor Living as well. Again, some say
otters yes out tier yeah, oh yeah what Uh you
are funny and I accidently say that yesterday those Monday
is a tough day. Interiors and outdoor living. Bottom line is, look, man,
if you wanted some do you wan the craig drapes, shades,
shutters for outside, maybe some drop down a shading for
outside of your kitchen, by your grill, whatever the case
may be. You want to not only improve your home aesthetically,
but functionally as well, save money on your bills. Uh,
you want katy Z Interiors and outdoor Living. Take advantage
Brandon Barton's gonna give you that complimentary estimate, let you
know exactly what your options are and it's any price point,
and then a complimentary insulation as well. Katy Zy Interiors
and Outdoor Living. Uh tyer Ta NFL Story of the
day day.
Speaker 2: You know, sometimes I get accused of being a downer
and bringing up bad situations, But unfortunately, guys, the street
continues of not doing that. The Bengals have obviously signed
Jamar Chase and t Higgins two huge deals. Jamar Chase
over forty million year, t Higgins twenty eight million dollars
a year for a wide.
Speaker 1: Receiver, only first two years guaranteed, but yes, only the
first two.
Speaker 2: Years guaranteed after you know, previously allowing Trey Hendrickson to
seek a trade. It looks like these two are actual
so kind of mending defenses. There are talks of a
contract extension between Trey Hendrickson and Jamarsia and the Cincinnati Bengals.
This heated up yesterday. He has one year remaining on
that current contract, but he says he's looking for an
extension and the Bengals apparently want him back in the building. Now.
As far as trades go, they wanted a first round
plus additional assets for Trey Hendrickson, who only had one
year remaining on his deal. Nobody bid at that quite
as much as the Bengals wanted to. So there's a
chance that the NFL sack leader is back in Cincinnati's
coming off the seventeen and a half sacks. Really good
production in Cincinnati, and there's a chance that the Bengals
defense may not be trash after all, if they can
get back Trey Hendrickson.
Speaker 1: Jake, do you think they pay him more than Max Crossby?
You probably have to, right, and then Age, I don't.
I don't think you're gonna get more than Garrett. But
but yeah, I mean, but why because they'll be like,
he's too back to back defensive player of the year.
Speaker 4: Well, the objects to get to the quarterback, and I
did that more than anybody else.
Speaker 1: No, I agree. But also that Garrett jumped to forty
million and then Jamar just jumped him, which, by the way,
that Garrett jump from Max to Garrett was a twelve
percent jump. So the Bengals, by waiting on Chase literally
cost themselves like an extra five MILLI.
Speaker 4: Oh, I think they cost themselves more by waiting. I mean,
if I'm Trey Hendrickson, though, and back to back seasons,
I've had seventeen and a half sacks. Incredible, I'd be like,
I don't care where this person was selected or what
you think of that person. He might look better in
his uniform, but the stats don't lie. I have seventeen
and a half sacks the last two years in each
of those seasons. Sure, So that's I promise you that's
his agent's mindset. Hedn't. They don't care how good somebody
else looks in a uniform, and they're a good player
and they got more money because they were. At this point,
you know this pick in the draft. If I'm Tree Henderson,
I'm not settling for anything. I'm matching the best edge
rusher at least at least per year.
Speaker 2: Maybe not total, yeah like maybe not maybe not like
number a year.
Speaker 1: So you want so you're you're fighting for forty why not?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not taking I'm not taking a discount because
you know you you have to because I wasn't a
first rounder when I came out, Like I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm guessing he's probably gonna slot in between Miles and Crossby.
I think it'll be Crosby. I think it'll be right
in and Garrett.
Speaker 2: To Jake's point, like they paid Jamar forty million a
year and they're like, okay, half comes off. No, I
know he's coming off the triple Crown year. Okay, Trey
Henderson's the NFL sack leader. That's basically the equivalent. I mean,
you have over thirty two sacks the last two years.
You gave Chase forty million.
Speaker 1: It was a funny way of adding up seventeen and
a half twice over thirty two.
Speaker 4: You listen, you were you were second and twenty three
the only person to beats you with TJ. Watt. Yeah,
your first last year. I just I'm not giving you
any kind of friendly deal. Yeah, it's true. I'm not,
uh like, I don't. I'm probably not gonna get the
years that the other two got, but I'm at least
going to get the average salary.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and a lot of guaranteed money. All right, Trey Hendrickson,
will it be back in Cincy? Will wait and see?
Ask the bench coming up next, top the benk. What's up, y'all?

Speaker 3: Big miscal girl, but I'll drink it. The smokiness of

Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's my whisky wine. Drink whiskey and
Windrin ironic whiskey and uh ask the bench mixed caso
