WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:04.080 All right, good afternoon, welcome in. And I'm sure within 2 00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:06.519 the first half of a second you were able to 3 00:00:06.639 --> 00:00:10.480 determine that this doesn't sound normal, and it doesn't because 4 00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:13.439 we're not connected the way that we would typically connect 5 00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:16.320 to you know, do this show. But here's what I'm 6 00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:19.280 gonna tell you. I believe in the power of positivity. 7 00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:21.879 How about you, Austin, do you believe as well? 8 00:00:22.039 --> 00:00:26.239 That's all I'm about is positiveness. It's Thursday, Okay, good right, 9 00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:27.160 So it's Thursday. 10 00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:30.239 R Yeah, okay, it's Thursday. It's draft day. We're gonna 11 00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:33.719 have fun on the show today. It's gonna be great. However, 12 00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:39.479 I've had to connect remotely for just just because today, 13 00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:41.600 and usually that's never a problem. Ever, i mean that's 14 00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:45.600 usually not something that you would maybe even notice unless 15 00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:48.280 I brought it up. I'm sure you notice now because 16 00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:51.280 you know it actually probably doesn't sound terrible, but it 17 00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:53.840 also doesn't sound as if, you know, yeah, it also 18 00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:55.560 probably doesn't sound like I'm you know, in a studio, 19 00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:59.560 which is not great. I mean, we could get by 20 00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:01.240 with this, we're not going to We're going to believe 21 00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:03.679 in the power positivity in that we're going to get 22 00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:07.319 this thing situated, and everything's going to be you know, aokay. 23 00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:10.000 I mean, that's what I'm telling myself, and I'm going 24 00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:12.959 to try to be optimistic. So I was trying to 25 00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:17.319 figure out the connection situation, and it stumped me. I'm 26 00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:20.920 usually pretty savvy when it comes to I mean, like 27 00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:24.799 technical stuff, really just kind of figuring stuff out through 28 00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:27.640 trial and error, having to teach myself how to do 29 00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:30.000 a lot of things over the years, I've just you know, 30 00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:32.719 that's kind of how I usually don't if I really 31 00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:35.159 can't figure something out, I'll ask for somebody, but usually 32 00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:37.799 I mess with it long enough to where I figure 33 00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:40.480 it out on my own. But I sat here for 34 00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:43.719 about fifteen minutes, and I don't know what the issue is. 35 00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:45.760 And again, none of you care or would even know 36 00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:49.159 what type of stuff we use to get connected and 37 00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.319 all that. So I just I was very confident that 38 00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:54.400 at the buzzer meaning three o'clock, I was going to 39 00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:57.359 be aokay, And I really embraced the challenge because for 40 00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.519 some reason, I'm thinking, Okay, everything says we're good, Why 41 00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:02.439 is it not? You know, why is it not working? 42 00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:05.840 And you know, I wasn't able to figure out so 43 00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:08.800 I'm stumped. But again, we'll try to get it figured out. 44 00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:11.719 But did you try turning it off and then turning 45 00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:15.000 it back on? Seems to be the universal fix. 46 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:18.280 Brother a lot of power down, power up, a lot 47 00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:22.280 of it, and unfortunately there was h And I mean, 48 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.199 I I can't think of a comparison. I'm sure there are. 49 00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:28.039 I mean maybe maybe you're maybe you're thinking of one 50 00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:30.680 right now, meaning if you're listening and you know what 51 00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:34.319 I'm talking about to where there's nothing that indicates that 52 00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:37.159 things are not work are not supposed to be working. 53 00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:38.719 And I'm not talking about like connecting to you know, 54 00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:40.639 to do a lot of radio show, but just anything 55 00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:43.719 like technical like you know, let's just say you're in 56 00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:46.439 your car and for some reason, you have no you 57 00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:49.520 have no error messages, you have no alarms going off, 58 00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:53.159 nothing looks off, but your you know, your car will 59 00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.319 like start, but it won't move, Like I don't even 60 00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:57.240 know if that's the thing. I don't know much about cars, 61 00:02:57.520 --> 00:02:59.360 But like that's what's really got me stumped, because I 62 00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:02.879 would have made I would have made arrangements much sooner 63 00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:04.879 to try to get somebody to assist me. But here's 64 00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:08.000 what here's what happened. It's my arrogance or maybe my 65 00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:11.039 confidence and wanting to, you know, be stubborn and try to, 66 00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:12.479 you know, say no, I don't need help. I'll figure 67 00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:14.560 it out. Because it did like the challenge. But after 68 00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:16.439 about twenty minutes I probably should have realized, you know 69 00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:19.520 what you should call, you know, those that actually do this. 70 00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:23.520 So everything looks as if it should be working, but 71 00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:25.960 for some reason it's not. And that's that's why we 72 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:28.400 are starting the show with me talking to you on 73 00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:32.199 the phone. But again, it's old school, right, it is 74 00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:33.879 old school, but I'm gonna I'm gonna believe it will 75 00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:36.159 get it figured out before before too long. But as 76 00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:37.879 you could expect, we'll talk a lot about the NFL 77 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:41.080 Draft because you know, it's draft day and I I've 78 00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:43.439 always been a big nerd for the draft, not just 79 00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:46.520 the NFL obviously the NBA draft. I don't get into 80 00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:49.199 Major League Baseball's draft because I don't mean, don't they 81 00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:55.400 have like eighty seven rounds? Yeah it's high school kids? Yeah, yeah, 82 00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:57.919 I mean that that's me. I actually think that's one 83 00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:01.919 of the issues for baseball, meaning that they you know, 84 00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.879 they they don't like you have these guys who typically 85 00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:09.159 would go through this car wash, as they say, with 86 00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:12.199 all this promotion marketing, because these guys are the new 87 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:16.000 potential stars of a league. And when you when you 88 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:19.120 have guys drafted, you know, at any point in baseball, 89 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:22.120 you don't see them in the league. You know that 90 00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:23.920 they're being drafted in as far as like you know, 91 00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:26.920 the real the big leagues until they're three four years 92 00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:30.040 in sometimes. So that's my explanation as to why I 93 00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:33.240 just don't I can't get into the baseball draft. But NFL, NBA, 94 00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:35.720 I mean, drafts are fun in general. I mean, today, 95 00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:38.120 Austin and I are gonna draft. We're gonna have a 96 00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:41.959 five round fast food item draft, meaning we're gonna go 97 00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:44.160 round for round and you know, he might take the 98 00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:46.439 quarter pounder, he might take the beef and scheddar. I 99 00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:50.680 might take the you know, take the the Gordida crunch, 100 00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:53.000 if that's even the thing anymore. So don't you don't. 101 00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:55.759 I won't. I'll leave it for you actually, just so 102 00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:57.160 you know that's not going to be on my on 103 00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:00.279 my board. But anyways, draft, the whole concept of of 104 00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:02.600 a draft is interesting, and that's why, honestly, when it 105 00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:05.639 comes to content on social media, podcast that kind of 106 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:08.560 stuff like you oftentimes see. In fact, there's a there's 107 00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.839 a podcast I believe within like the Barstool Network that 108 00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:14.720 they just do snake drafts on different random stuff, like 109 00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:16.720 we did one on Valentine's Day, Austin and I did. 110 00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:20.399 It was for rom coms, and you know, that stuff's fun. 111 00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:22.920 I think it's one of those things that, like, more 112 00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:25.839 often than not, most people will have an opinion on 113 00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:29.279 said subject that you're drafting, because, you know, regardless of 114 00:05:29.279 --> 00:05:32.519 your rooting interests, regardless of like which team you're a 115 00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:35.040 fan of, even like regardless if you're even like a 116 00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:37.199 big sports fan. Like, it's such a broad thing that 117 00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:39.600 a lot of people have some opinions on. So anyways, 118 00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:41.759 we will do that a little bit later on. But 119 00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:44.600 also what I love about the draft is just I guess, 120 00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:48.240 the kid and me thinking about what it would be 121 00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:50.920 like to, you know, hear your name called and get 122 00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:54.839 drafted into you know, the NBA, the NFL, whatever whatever 123 00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.160 the sport is that you choose to you know, pursue. 124 00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:00.399 And you know, I did have the realization pretty pretty 125 00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:02.360 early in life that that was not realistic for me. 126 00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:04.519 You know there was not going to be a scenario 127 00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:07.480 where I walk across the stage and shake the commissioner's 128 00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:09.720 hand as I'm being drafted, because you know, I was 129 00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:13.160 I was pretty realistic about, you know, my upside. But 130 00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:16.959 I'm sitting here thinking today, imagine being one of these, 131 00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:18.920 one of these guys that you know, like you're there, 132 00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.920 like you're going to be drafted like the like, I'm 133 00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:25.879 sure there's a lot to balance, But what I was 134 00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:27.920 thinking about today is I try to put myself in 135 00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:31.480 the shoes of these you know, twenty two twenty one 136 00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:35.360 year old dudes who clearly have already been famous, have 137 00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:38.480 probably now with nil, already made a lot of money, right, 138 00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:41.079 so like, you know, this is this is certainly a 139 00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:43.680 big deal to them, but you know, they're already pretty 140 00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:47.199 well established. And I just wonder if do you still 141 00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:49.680 have that feel like are these guys thinking about when 142 00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:51.399 they were throwing it across, you know, throwing it in 143 00:06:51.439 --> 00:06:54.600 the backyard or playing little league football, about how one 144 00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:58.120 day they hope to have this happen because it be 145 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:01.160 such a special moment. I mean, you know, and I 146 00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:03.839 also think that if you're somebody like I don't know, 147 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:06.079 should or Sanders and maybe he's not the best person 148 00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:07.879 to bring up, but he's the only he's the most 149 00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.199 talked about person in this draft on draft day, and 150 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:13.279 it's really not even close. I mean I haven't done 151 00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:16.279 a full audit to see who, in fact is, you know, 152 00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:19.959 being talked about more because there's so much talk about 153 00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:22.480 the NFL in general, especially the NFL Draft when you 154 00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:25.360 get to draft day, but we know the number one pick. 155 00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:27.920 I mean, we know who it's gonna be Cam Wore, 156 00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:30.759 and we know that right after him, it's probably gonna 157 00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:34.000 be Travis Hunter, and we don't really know where should 158 00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:36.199 or Sanders is going to be taken. And I think 159 00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.959 that's probably a factor in sort of the intrigue. But 160 00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:41.639 as much as I have been you know, anti Sanders family, 161 00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:44.279 I think they're I mean to me there there. I mean, 162 00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:47.439 it's you know a lot of people talk about Stephen A. 163 00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:51.240 Smith and LeVar Ball in that realm of like you know, 164 00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:52.959 and I shouldn't say a lot of people I do, 165 00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:54.360 and I think others see it the same way, like 166 00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:57.079 they're characters, they're entertainers, like I don't. I don't really 167 00:07:57.079 --> 00:07:59.120 take a lot of what they say serious. I kind 168 00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:02.120 of look at Dion's the same way, although he is, 169 00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:05.759 you know, legitimately a football coach at a Big twelve 170 00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:08.120 school and you know is a former you know, it's 171 00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:12.600 a legendary athlete himself. So you know, I don't know, 172 00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:15.920 I just part of me says that that in a way, like, 173 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.600 regardless of what happens tonight, Deon Sanders and his son, 174 00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:21.240 they're winning like it. I mean, since Dion got to 175 00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:24.240 Colorado Austin, has he not been one of the most 176 00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:28.360 or maybe the most talked about person in college football? 177 00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.399 And it has not been based off results. I mean, 178 00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:34.159 maybe they were talked about a lot early on because 179 00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:36.200 you know, they were terrible and he got off to 180 00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:38.480 a terrible start, and then last year they clearly took 181 00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:42.080 a big step forward. But like, regardless of what happens tonight, 182 00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:43.759 where you know, if he you know, he's probably gonna 183 00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:45.600 get drafted in the first round tonight, but even he doesn't, 184 00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:48.519 like he's gonna be talked about in a way that like, 185 00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:51.080 I just don't think you're gonna hear as much about 186 00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:53.399 anybody else. And it's not because everybody's gonna say that 187 00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:56.080 he's gonna be a huge bust or they're gonna say, hey, 188 00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:58.799 whoever passed on him and let him get later on 189 00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:01.519 and you know, later later picks that are going to 190 00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:04.039 regret it. But I don't know. I just when I 191 00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:06.039 think of, Okay, here we go, it's a night's NFL draft, 192 00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:09.360 It's night one. I mean, the buzz name is shad 193 00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:11.320 Or Sanders and he may be awful. I mean, it 194 00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:13.320 may be great. You just don't know. But I just 195 00:09:13.720 --> 00:09:16.960 I can't think of anything in sports in recent years, 196 00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:19.279 let's go back, you know, two and a half three years. 197 00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:23.799 I just can't think of anything similar to what Dion 198 00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:27.519 Sanders Prime has done as far as just entering this 199 00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:31.480 world and regardless of what the results are. He's always 200 00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:34.279 talked about he's like Lebron in the NBA, He's like 201 00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:38.480 the Cowboys in the NFL. And I guess today was 202 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:40.879 a day of me just accepting that. Like regardless, I 203 00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:43.360 think my hope was that you know, he would be 204 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:45.440 humbled and they would, you know, they would realize that, 205 00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:47.799 you know, he's maybe not the worst coach in the world. 206 00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:50.039 But like all this was just publicity of his pr 207 00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.320 It was it was you know, it was more more 208 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:54.559 of a TMZ kind of thing than it was like, hey, 209 00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:57.080 let's go hire this football coach because he's gonna get 210 00:09:57.120 --> 00:09:58.840 us competing at a really really high level. And to 211 00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.039 be fair, they are an better spot now than they 212 00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.440 were before him, and he did have a big bounce 213 00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:05.519 back year in year two. But really, you know, as 214 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:08.600 far as accomplishments, nothing substantial. And it would be easier 215 00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:09.759 for me to say, you know what, a lot of 216 00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:12.519 credit is due, a lot of credit is deserved because 217 00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:15.159 they were what three and nine in year one and 218 00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:18.120 now you know they're I don't know what their record was, 219 00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:19.720 but you know they were competitive at the top of 220 00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:22.240 the Big twelve. And oh that's true. But I don't 221 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:26.000 even like think to like acknowledge that one because yes, 222 00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:29.919 I'm probably a hater. Two Also because they act as 223 00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.600 if they've already won national championships, right, they act as 224 00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:35.399 if like no matter what happens, if they get blown 225 00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:38.159 out by anybody, like they just carry themselves as if 226 00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.919 they have a trophy case full of national titles. And 227 00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:42.679 that's just you know, so when you do something that 228 00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:45.440 is better than being terrible and clearly taking this step forward, 229 00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:47.559 like because of how you carry yourself and because of 230 00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:50.039 the hype that you generate. I mean, and again maybe 231 00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:51.759 it's not their fault, right, clearly they're good at it. 232 00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:53.440 They generate a lot of high But let's not be 233 00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:56.240 let's not let's not lie to each other here. Even 234 00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:59.120 if you are somebody that is very po Deon Sanders 235 00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:00.960 and you just you know, you want him to be successful. 236 00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.600 You think he's you know, he's he's he's edgy compared 237 00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:06.240 to what we typically see from coaches and all that 238 00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:10.879 kind of stuff. You know, it's not a surprise, and 239 00:11:10.919 --> 00:11:14.000 it's not it's not, you know, a coincidence that the 240 00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:17.320 majority of people who don't like Colorado or maybe just 241 00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:20.240 our big Deon Sanders fans like we we And I 242 00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:22.440 say we because I know I'm not alone. We enjoy 243 00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:25.519 seeing them loose and you know, talk to big talk, 244 00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:28.559 walk the big walk, and then you know, don't back 245 00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:30.840 it up. But I think two things I just have 246 00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:34.480 to accept. One, no matter what happens, the days of 247 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:38.679 like Dion Sanders and his his his kids not being 248 00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:40.639 talked about at a high level. Really just I don't 249 00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:42.759 know when that's gonna happen, because I don't see any 250 00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:45.720 I don't see Deon leaving Colorado anytime soon. And even 251 00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.480 if Shadoor isn't great right out of the gate or 252 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:51.080 doesn't start early, like he's gonna be somebody people talk 253 00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:53.039 about from this trap more than anything. So I just 254 00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:55.440 got to accept that. And also they're good at what 255 00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:58.559 they do, meaning they want people to talk about them. 256 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:02.200 Like all Deon Sanders got the Colorado job, yes, because yeah, 257 00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:04.399 he was impressive at Jackson State, but like that wasn't 258 00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:07.279 a typical move, right, Like he didn't. I mean, he 259 00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:10.200 had really no previous head coaching experience at all before 260 00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:12.759 he got the Jackson State job. He's literally used every 261 00:12:14.159 --> 00:12:17.320 every step he's made as a coach, specifically, is all 262 00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:19.799 based off of what he did as a player many 263 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:22.240 many many years ago. And it's not just because he 264 00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:23.600 was a great player, because he was. 265 00:12:23.639 --> 00:12:23.919 He was. 266 00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:26.720 He was sensational, I mean he was, I mean, he was, 267 00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:28.799 he was, he was. I mean, I don't know if 268 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:30.360 I'd call him a legend, but not far from it 269 00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:34.000 if he's not one. But yet, even like where he 270 00:12:34.080 --> 00:12:36.600 is as a coach is not because of his playing career. 271 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:39.559 It's because of his personality. It's because it like maybe 272 00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:42.320 what Dion is best at you know, and he's great 273 00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:44.639 at football. Clearly he was also great at baseball. How 274 00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:47.559 many people can do that? Alsin, we talked about thirty 275 00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:49.960 for thirties yesterday. Did you ever watch the one about Dion? 276 00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:51.360 Uh? 277 00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:51.480 No? 278 00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:53.960 I remember it, though I probably can't remember too much 279 00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:55.200 about it. 280 00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:56.960 The only the only reason I'm bringing up is because 281 00:12:57.159 --> 00:13:00.559 it took me watching that to realize that Dion wasn't 282 00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:03.039 just somebody who was great at football and then got 283 00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:05.879 a chance to play baseball. Was good at baseball like 284 00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:08.240 he was good at it. So so bring all this 285 00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:10.320 up to say he was great. Yet I feel like 286 00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:13.720 every bit of Dion, as far as today, it's all 287 00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.279 about not production, And again he had production. He's a 288 00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:18.279 better player, and he will be a better player than 289 00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:20.600 his kids ever will be. I believe that. Maybe they'll 290 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:24.519 prove me wrong. But he's his personality, his charisma, his 291 00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:28.279 you know, whatever whatever words you want to use to 292 00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:30.519 to to to add him up, to build up to 293 00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.440 the word that is character slash charisma. He has that, 294 00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:36.639 and you know, I guess I just have to accept it. 295 00:13:36.759 --> 00:13:38.159 And I don't, you know, part of me says, well, 296 00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:39.720 that's just where we are. In sports, right, it's way 297 00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.480 more about drama and stories, like you know, stories that 298 00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:46.279 are in the drama world, controversy, that kind of stuff. 299 00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:48.960 Clearly that's going to generate more attention than really anything, 300 00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:53.000 and that's not new. But I mean, I also he's 301 00:13:53.039 --> 00:13:55.919 there's not many people that could that could keep their 302 00:13:56.000 --> 00:13:59.320 name out there regardless of what's going on, than than 303 00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:02.360 Deon Sanders. And I mean maybe his maybe his kid 304 00:14:02.440 --> 00:14:04.039 is a great quarterback when it's all said and done. 305 00:14:04.519 --> 00:14:06.919 And I look foolish for thinking that he you know, 306 00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:09.399 he's to me, he's a huge risk right now to 307 00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:12.960 draft early on here probably gonna happen regardless. But like 308 00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:16.639 if Deon Sanders' son was not named Shoud or Sanders 309 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:19.639 and he was shit or Coffee and he you know, 310 00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:25.000 played at FAU, was decent, played at Colorado and you know, 311 00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:28.279 had some exciting plays, but really it would have been 312 00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.639 about Travis Hunter because obviously he's the elite player like 313 00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:34.960 the Sanders, like Deon Sanders has has has put him 314 00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:38.360 his son in this position, and you know, credit to 315 00:14:38.440 --> 00:14:40.159 him because you know, if I was a dad, maybe 316 00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:41.799 I'd be doing the same thing. So am I wrong? 317 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:41.960 Though? 318 00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:44.159 I mean, you follow the NFL honestly more than I do. 319 00:14:44.240 --> 00:14:46.639 Austin isn't should or Sanders the most talked about name 320 00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:47.639 right now, and it's not close. 321 00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:51.279 Yeah, and you you just mentioned something that just hit me. 322 00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.279 They the Sanders family is basically here to stay uh 323 00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:58.360 for for at least the time being, and they've elevated 324 00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:01.039 up to I mean, if they're not talking about Lebron 325 00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:05.320 or the Cowboys or insert New York team here, then 326 00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:08.000 it's Deion Sanders. And this year's draft is going to 327 00:15:08.039 --> 00:15:10.440 be shadoor. And I don't know if you would even 328 00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:13.399 I actually told you a couple of months ago. I 329 00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:15.279 was afraid that this would probably turn into like an 330 00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:19.120 Eli Manning situation. See, I thought that they would get 331 00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:22.679 so heavily involved, and because he was trending towards being 332 00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:24.799 the best quarterback the number one overall pick, and of 333 00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:29.080 course things happen. Obviously, cam Ward is the runaway favorite 334 00:15:29.080 --> 00:15:31.039 for it right now, but I thought he would just 335 00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:33.120 be in line to go to uh who has a 336 00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:36.559 number one pick? It's the Giants, right or the Titans. 337 00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:38.639 Number one overall pick? Is the Titan is a Titan 338 00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:39.519 taking Ward? 339 00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:41.600 Okay, See, like when it was going to be Like 340 00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:44.639 in the Giants discussion when the season was was going on, 341 00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:47.320 I told you, I said, I would be afraid that 342 00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:49.919 there might be some drama caused by them during the draft. 343 00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:52.480 It doesn't seem too far fetched for him. But no, no, 344 00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:55.799 you're right. They've entered a level to where they're they're 345 00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:58.519 not gonna there. No one's going to not talk about 346 00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:01.639 him because they are polarizing, and whether how you feel 347 00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:04.039 about him, they do make headlines. And whoever whoever does 348 00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:07.440 get Shador, they're also gonna have You're right, it's gonna 349 00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:09.919 keep following them. There's gonna be more following on them, 350 00:16:09.960 --> 00:16:14.799 and Chador's journey throughout the league, everything that he does 351 00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:18.240 in training camp, if somebody happens to come over and 352 00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:20.320 get ahead of him on the death chart, that's gonna 353 00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:22.519 be have more eyes on it. So, yeah, there's a 354 00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:23.279 lot you're right. 355 00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:25.279 Yeah, I mean, and it's you know, and there's other 356 00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:27.120 things we'll get into when it comes to today's draft. 357 00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:29.960 I think the story of the I think it's the 358 00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:34.200 GM of the Yeah, the GM of the New York Giants. 359 00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:38.879 He's a teenager and on Instagram he posted what appeared 360 00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:42.279 to be a legitimate cinematic video that the giants had 361 00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:44.679 already pre put together because they know they are taking 362 00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:48.360 Jackson Dart, which I mean, isn't that an old time 363 00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:50.600 Like I mean, that's like something you'd see in a 364 00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:54.399 movie that's about the draft. Yeah, Like GM's son leaks 365 00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:57.320 pick with social media because this kid, he's seventeen, I think, 366 00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:00.240 and he's already he's already gone to being tried it 367 00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:03.600 on Instagram. Now as if like uh oh he realized 368 00:17:03.600 --> 00:17:06.720 that he he you know, he probably had it on 369 00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:08.960 his story. He probably had a few hundred followers from 370 00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:10.599 kids that he knows from high school. And all it 371 00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:13.039 took was one person to realize I think, you know, 372 00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:15.440 I think this this kid's just let us know that 373 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.359 they're gonna do. And here's the thing, if they if 374 00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:21.160 they draft him, I mean, everybody's gonna know that that's 375 00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:22.480 what it was, right, Like it won't you know? And 376 00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:25.319 again if I guess there's no real harm in it. 377 00:17:25.359 --> 00:17:27.200 But again there's there's also some really good stories that 378 00:17:27.240 --> 00:17:28.480 come from the draft. I don't know if we're gonna 379 00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:31.039 get what we had many many years ago. Laramie Tunsel 380 00:17:31.279 --> 00:17:35.319 with the grass mask, the bong mask like that, that's 381 00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:37.119 an all timer. Like the NFL Draft has given us 382 00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:39.319 some great stories, and we'll see what we end up 383 00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:41.400 getting tonight. I'm I'm certainly excited for the draft, but 384 00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:44.200 we'll also continue to talk about some other things. I Uh, 385 00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:46.119 we had somebody ask yesterday and I kind of I 386 00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:48.039 kind of laughed it off a little bit, like, well, yeah, 387 00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:51.880 you know, maybe maybe Louisville gets involved with Travis Perry 388 00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:54.519 because you know, he's a really good shooter and Pat 389 00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:56.960 Kelsey really values that. But I thought, you know, they've 390 00:17:56.960 --> 00:18:00.400 already got many guards this year. He would never and 391 00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:01.960 who knows what the kid wants to do. But again, 392 00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:06.079 what I'm getting at is I shouldn't say I was 393 00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:08.200 wrong because I didn't really make a full prediction. But 394 00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:10.039 Louisville is one of the schools that has reached out, 395 00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:12.200 and I don't know if they're seriously in the mix, 396 00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:14.559 but wouldn't that be something. And I actually have a 397 00:18:14.599 --> 00:18:17.279 thought about Travis Perry that I can't believe I didn't 398 00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:19.240 think of yesterday when somebody asked me that question. But 399 00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:22.039 we can certainly get into that, and more importantly, what 400 00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:23.279 we're going to do is figure out how the hell 401 00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:25.440
