Speaker 1: Aren't y'all tired? No chemistry over the podcasts, which is
Speaker 1: just right comment we actually got.
Speaker 2: This is the touchdown tangency your week. We spot our
Speaker 2: NFL takes topical tangency and context for the coach cult.
Speaker 2: So tune in, tune in because you never know if
Speaker 2: you're gonna get a make.
Speaker 1: But either way, Away had the touchdown down. What's up,
Speaker 1: good people?
Speaker 2: Touchdowns and tangs Here Hawthorne, California, your NFL spot for
Speaker 2: topical takes tangents for the culture.
Speaker 1: I am P. T.
Speaker 3: Camrio, I'm Kenneth Frankly James Berry.
Speaker 2: And we are on the second take of this. Hopefully
Speaker 2: there's no power issues this time around.
Speaker 1: But football's back.
Speaker 2: Kenny Hall of fameame just passed Bons Chargers. Trey Lance
Speaker 2: went out there and got the start. Harbaugh was firing
Speaker 2: up before the game went out there, made some plays.
Speaker 2: They pretty much dog walked the Lions. Jerry Goff threw
Speaker 2: a pick. Everyone on social media overreacted. Look at golf
Speaker 2: without Ben Johnson, et cetera, et cetera. Antonio Gates made
Speaker 2: his acceptance speech before other guys got in, solling on man,
Speaker 2: how you feeling? How you feeling about football being back.
Speaker 1: I'm happy mostly just for this year.
Speaker 3: Fact of like high school and college are back and
Speaker 3: alight at a certain point, like once you look back
Speaker 3: in high school and realize that's the last time you
Speaker 3: were innocent, You're like, I just want the best for
Speaker 3: these kids. And you know, like with football, injuries are
Speaker 3: gonna happen. Somebody's gonna have the best year of their life,
Speaker 3: somebody's gonna have the worst shit of their life. And
Speaker 3: it's all tied in. We're all living this shit together,
Speaker 3: and you factor, and you know, we're all experiencing football
Speaker 3: in different aspects of our lives. So it ended up
Speaker 3: to be a pretty fun year. I mean, the year's
Speaker 3: almost over already, we're already in August. It's crazy, though,
Speaker 3: do you get the faster than about to go by?
Speaker 3: This shit is crazy. Could have warned us, They could
Speaker 3: have warned us. They told us, But I don't really
Speaker 3: think they warned us. It's more like they just said,
Speaker 3: all right, you'll see when you're older. Hey, that's not
Speaker 3: funny because I see it now that I'm older and
Speaker 3: my back hurts.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Man, Ultimately, it's great that football is back. I wanted
Speaker 2: to go to the Raiders camp this past weekend, but
Speaker 2: had a game, so I didn't make it. But Chargers
Speaker 2: having a bunch of open practices. Rams have had a
Speaker 2: bunch of practices. Cowboys been fucking around and Oxen and heard.
Speaker 2: But yeah, man, it's just all around a good time
Speaker 2: right now, buzz in the air. High schools are starting
Speaker 2: back up, starting to feel like fall.
Speaker 3: Most importantly, how Thorn to Lindale. We'll be playing at
Speaker 3: so far well the first time ever.
Speaker 1: Yeah's cool.
Speaker 3: August August twenty first, I don't give it shit it
Speaker 3: I hope Lindelle don't get blown out. But oh my god,
Speaker 3: oh for people who grew up in the city, I
Speaker 3: might cry that day. I might have figure out how
Speaker 3: to get some media credentials because I gotta be on
Speaker 3: the field interviewing people.
Speaker 1: They gotta have me out there. I was. I was
Speaker 1: there during the history of this rivalry, the heart of it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm excited.
Speaker 3: I'm more excited about college in high school than the
Speaker 3: pros because the NFL is inevitable. I feel like the
Speaker 3: Passing League and Summer League that was just that felt
Speaker 3: like that was forever.
Speaker 1: What do you think about the virtual measurement stiff, like
Speaker 1: the Raiders are gonna somehow get hold. Yeah, but I
Speaker 1: only saw like one clip of it.
Speaker 2: What kind of corantine, But it's too early to tell
Speaker 2: because we just rolling out like this is really the
Speaker 2: test season.
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure.
Speaker 3: Now if they if it goes Haywire gets screwed up
Speaker 3: in a playoff game, Yeah, that can't happen.
Speaker 2: So just petting money, no comment, No, I know you
Speaker 2: probably can't talk about it, but yeah, man, that's the situation.
Speaker 2: NFL offices in New York. Basically some dude who was
Speaker 2: originally from California played high school football basically targeting.
Speaker 1: The I thought it was Santa.
Speaker 3: Clarita something like that, but his coach was like his
Speaker 3: former coaches like the Hills.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so versions pretty much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's targeting in the NFL because he feels like
Speaker 2: he had CT from all his years playing high school
Speaker 2: and youth football.
Speaker 3: Blackstone CEO also got somebody at Blackstone, like I guess,
Speaker 3: like an investment firm that like buys up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 2: This building has some of the top heads funds, financial officers.
Speaker 1: Et cetera. In this office.
Speaker 2: So basically ran up in there, held himself hostage and
Speaker 2: took his own life and four others with him. So
Speaker 2: it's just all around a sad situation. Should really just
Speaker 2: a reminder that in this country, it's like it doesn't
Speaker 2: matter where you go, whether it's school, work or you know,
Speaker 2: anywhere else, concert, movie, et cetera.
Speaker 1: Like some bullshit could happen, some tragedy. It's sad. It sucks. No,
Speaker 1: it sucks for you because you're close to.
Speaker 2: It's nothing new either, so it's just sad. With that
Speaker 2: on a water note, I guess we can turn to
Speaker 2: college football.
Speaker 3: Now before I play another interview? Should I should just wait?
Speaker 1: Ah?
Speaker 3: Like I wait, some things did happen, Like I said,
Speaker 3: at least for high school, Lowndale and Hawthorne High will
Speaker 3: be playing out so far it should be for the
Speaker 3: Mayor's Cup, but who knows. They for some reason Malondock
Speaker 3: gets as well as they discontinuate because Lindel technically was
Speaker 3: never involved with the Mayor's Cup. But it's like, we're
Speaker 3: right there and we were clapping hot thornch cheeks every
Speaker 3: time he played them. Now after I graduated and we left,
Speaker 3: that's a whole different story. But that's gonna be great,
Speaker 3: Like you got the East LA Classic to have more
Speaker 3: local high school teams playing at so far is going
Speaker 3: to be awesome. Truly excited for it.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 3: College football, DJ wing guard per Due offensive lineman who
Speaker 3: I think potentially could be making like upwards of two
Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars in IL money. He sued the n
Speaker 3: double A because they he thought he had actually eligibility
Speaker 3: left and they told him he didn't. So now like
Speaker 3: he's still and he's some One of the reporters asked him, like,
Speaker 3: how acs Lincoln, how is he holding up? And he's
Speaker 3: like it's not good because like this could be the
Speaker 3: end of his college career.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: I think he had like some COVID time like certain
Speaker 3: things where he's legally supposed to have the year, but
Speaker 3: there are provisions and some of the rules that might
Speaker 3: prevent that. And he's supposed to be their starting center
Speaker 3: I think at USC this year.
Speaker 1: So that's kind of up in the air.
Speaker 3: Also, just talks of intense and kind of heat it
Speaker 3: up with more schools, especially the Carolina schools North Carolina,
Speaker 3: all them.
Speaker 1: Potentially leaving to go to the Big Ten.
Speaker 3: That's that's weird, how that like those talks kind of
Speaker 3: heat it up, but we kind of don't stand by,
Speaker 3: so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2: Also, Warrence Taylor being on the sports committee and not
Speaker 2: even knowing why or what.
Speaker 1: We started. Taylor, like, we get it, bro, you ran
Speaker 1: like a four to three.
Speaker 3: You're a fast linebacker, but you got a weird history
Speaker 3: with women.
Speaker 1: Dog.
Speaker 3: I don't care how good of a past rusher you were.
Speaker 3: You got a weird history of women. Little girls like you.
Speaker 3: You're kind of my Carl alone category. Like old heads
Speaker 3: like Launch Taylor. I'm like, you mean a dude that
Speaker 3: keep getting caught with underage girls, and y'all that's your hero,
Speaker 3: that's your friend.
Speaker 2: All right, all right, the old generation hit pedophiles pedophiles
Speaker 2: for a while.
Speaker 3: The old generation were pedophiles. Let's be real, a lot
Speaker 3: of them were pedophile and contone, you didn't maybe you
Speaker 3: didn't fuck a little kid, but you sure did fuck
Speaker 3: some young person's life up. Probably we could have that
Speaker 3: discussion all day. We could just look at the job
Speaker 3: market for young people. We could just look at I
Speaker 3: don't know, the journalism field and all the people who
Speaker 3: ended up leaving it for various reasons. But you know,
Speaker 3: some of these older professors don't have those conversations. You
Speaker 3: just say you're not working hard enough, and it's like
Speaker 3: you wouldn't have made it in today's time period, so
Speaker 3: shut your hats up.
Speaker 1: But that's a whole nother story. Again. I blame all.
Speaker 3: I blame all the boomers and the old people for
Speaker 3: the decayed of society because we were kids, y'all were
Speaker 3: adults when this shit was happening, Which is weird because
Speaker 3: like Triple H and them, funny that not one black
Speaker 3: person there because Lawrence Taylor wasn't in some of those pictures,
Speaker 3: but Triple H who they rein. They re institute at
Speaker 3: the presidential fitness test, which the president himself would fail at.
Speaker 3: And Triple AH can't do it because he did all
Speaker 3: those steroids early in his life, which is probably why
Speaker 3: he had the heart attack to begin with, because he
Speaker 3: was definitely on Gear and other ship because stock Scott
Speaker 3: Steiner infamously said, if getting drug tested, Triple A just
Speaker 3: is getting drug tested with me or just neither others
Speaker 3: is getting drug tested.
Speaker 1: And guess what he got drug tested. That's what Gear does.
Speaker 3: That's ladies and gentlemen, that's why you don't do all
Speaker 3: this weird ship to your body. But somehow Paulovek, who
Speaker 3: had a heart attack and can no longer even wrestle,
Speaker 3: probably can't even like raise his voice too much because
Speaker 3: you know, heart issues. He's gonna somehow make kids healthier again.
Speaker 3: These poor kids, they just just we have the stupidest
Speaker 3: adults in charge. Yeah, that's a real thing. The Presidential
Speaker 3: Fitness Test. They're bringing that back. So I guess start
Speaker 3: CrossFit training your kids or whatever weird shit y'all be
Speaker 3: doing out here.
Speaker 2: Takeaways from media day. You're gonna play some interviews or what?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, sure I will play a little some sung
Speaker 2: Uh it's gone from Big ten. I'm sure my WiFi
Speaker 2: is actually connected. What happened last time? Hey, did you
Speaker 2: turn on the thing? I mean it should be and
Speaker 2: hm I connected out again? Connected to someone's iPhone. I
Speaker 2: connected to my iPad Loki.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So interviewed a lot of all the coaches ship,
Speaker 3: so you just gonna have to play it all right,
Speaker 3: So interviewed a bunch of players and coaches.
Speaker 1: So I'll start with Damn Lanning. There we go. I
Speaker 1: heard something I'm just watching.
Speaker 3: I wasn't knowing I was gonna play I was playing there,
Speaker 3: we got found it. You absolutely deal with in iol
Speaker 3: that's one thing. But you know you just talked about
Speaker 3: got a bunch of guys drafted. All your linebackers you
Speaker 3: got drafted. How hard is it to hold on to
Speaker 3: assistant coaches who are producing those players?
Speaker 1: You know at this level.
Speaker 4: Scottie White was that was somebody that people across the
Speaker 4: street were trying to steal from it. You know, so
Speaker 4: he's a he's a great coach, and he's somebody that
Speaker 4: we have a personal relationship with. I don't think them
Speaker 4: trying to steal him was want of work, but it was,
Speaker 4: you know, like you said, when you when you guys
Speaker 4: are getting drafted, they're try to steal your people in that.
Speaker 4: I'm just glad that's got you. White chose to stay
Speaker 4: in place.
Speaker 1: Coach about all right?
Speaker 3: That was head coach Sean Foster, because you know, he
Speaker 3: had three lots three of his starting linebackers all got
Speaker 3: drafted to the NFL. And he didn't say allegedly pretty
Speaker 3: much said, yeah, USC tried to steal one of my assistants.
Speaker 3: And it's funny, how like the gamesmanship between USC la
Speaker 3: uh kind of keeps going on. So that kind of
Speaker 3: never surprises me, but it definitely is interesting, right, And
Speaker 3: do you still reach out to you know, John fox
Speaker 3: past coaches who have helped you, especially now going into
Speaker 3: your second year.
Speaker 4: Most definitely talked to Foxy, especially last year right before
Speaker 4: I got the job.
Speaker 1: I talked to Kelly Skipper, my running back coach.
Speaker 4: He's Buffalo Bills, he's my writing back coach at u
Speaker 4: c l A. I talked to his dad, Kelly Skipper,
Speaker 4: who's my running back coach in Carolina.
Speaker 1: So not a lot and they're willing to help him.
Speaker 1: They want to see me succeed.
Speaker 3: You still reach out to So that that second part
Speaker 3: of the interview with DaShan Foster, I was just talking
Speaker 3: about him, you know, me asking about his.
Speaker 1: Coaching tree and who who he leans on.
Speaker 3: And you could tell like in year or two, he's
Speaker 3: definitely got more comfortable talking with the media. Immediate day
Speaker 3: he came out and was like, I'm going to reiterate again.
Speaker 1: U c l A is in is in La.
Speaker 3: We are here, we've been here, We're making history, and
Speaker 3: he like he kind of yucked it up. He played up,
Speaker 3: so you know, the the embarrassing sound bite that he
Speaker 3: had last year, So that was that was kind of funny.
Speaker 1: To see him kind of lean into that and uh,
Speaker 1: well yeah, yeah, he said, you know, I just that one.
Speaker 1: I feel like you've grown the most in the song season.
Speaker 1: I'll just say, getting outside of my comfort zone, like
Speaker 1: I was saying, is just.
Speaker 5: Getting outside doing more things with more teammates. And it's
Speaker 5: not just about me laces, getting outside my comfort zone,
Speaker 5: just doing things I don't want to do. I think
Speaker 5: that's where I've grown the most.
Speaker 3: A got like gentry you talked about obviously, fiery athletic,
Speaker 3: can do a lot.
Speaker 1: How have you seen him grown in that leadership role?
Speaker 1: How much? All the linebackers?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's been great to see him take
Speaker 5: over that that role. I mean we have a young
Speaker 5: linebacker next to him, Dad Stevens. Uh, he's been great too,
Speaker 5: So seeing him to compete summer workouts has been crazy.
Speaker 1: So it's just it's been a lot. It's been a lot,
Speaker 1: and I'm glad we had gave you back this year.
Speaker 3: Were you and you know James kind of gone back
Speaker 3: and forth that mental games and practicing and team.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been it's been some battles. I mean day
Speaker 1: is a great quarterback to.
Speaker 5: Look you off his mobile on the run, strong arm,
Speaker 5: great accuracy. So it's been it's been great to go
Speaker 5: up against days every day packers.
Speaker 1: All Right, So Kamaria Ramsey.
Speaker 3: Potential draft pick this year, pretty much he uh, Lincoln
Speaker 3: pretty much like gave him the gave him the job
Speaker 3: of like, hey, I need to be more vocal this year.
Speaker 3: He needs you to talk more, which I mean I've
Speaker 3: been watching the kid play since he's a sophomore in
Speaker 3: high school. Being a vocal I mean, like he said,
Speaker 3: he makes himself physically known on that field. He's knocked
Speaker 3: cut people out, He's made great plays. So I think, yeah,
Speaker 3: he's I think he's just because he's transitioning more into like, Okay,
Speaker 3: you're really going to be the free safety, the quarterback
Speaker 3: of this defense for us. See, that's kind of going
Speaker 3: to be interesting to see how it plays out because
Speaker 3: they have a tough schedule and they're kind of light
Speaker 3: in the linebacking corps outside of Eric Gentry.
Speaker 1: They like Stevens, but like Gentry really is the.
Speaker 3: Guy that Elijah Nwbi's back at linebacker after being a
Speaker 3: defensive end. You have to replace one of your all
Speaker 3: time leading tacklers and players and Jay Higgins, Uh, the
Speaker 3: fact that he's had on that linebacker room that you've.
Speaker 1: Seen this offseason.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Jay is Uh. We just talked about the changes
Speaker 6: in college athletics.
Speaker 1: J Jay is a good a great, great.
Speaker 6: Illustration of you know what I talked about, it's being
Speaker 6: a developmental program and.
Speaker 1: You know, the guy, to me, he's.
Speaker 6: Everything that's great about college athletics. He also played behind
Speaker 6: a really good foot in the linebacker and we were
Speaker 6: all worried a couple of years ago, what are we
Speaker 6: gonna do to replace Jack Campbell? And the answer is
Speaker 6: Jay Higgins, Ja can it Berry?
Speaker 1: Touchdown? The tangents? Coach right? Play like four? You want
Speaker 1: to play another one? Where is that good?
Speaker 2: I don't know you got anything else that jumps out
Speaker 2: of you? You want to play?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Schools state lineman this year and you know.
Speaker 3: He's a Stockton native Front of the Bay and I
Speaker 3: was like, you know, they letting you touch the ox.
Speaker 1: They're letting you touch the ox this year now, And.
Speaker 3: He joked about it him and like Ephesians were like, yeah,
Speaker 3: they let him touch the socks.
Speaker 1: Now. He's a senior. He's in the rotation.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I again, I got a bunch of interviews
Speaker 3: I'm gonna play throughout the season just because you know
Speaker 3: the great stories. I didn't know that Brandon Shaff for example,
Speaker 3: I'll talk to I waft blindman. I didn't know that
Speaker 3: Brandon Sheriff was a high school quarterback. That's crazy and.
Speaker 1: A good one too. Don't know what.
Speaker 2: There's a bunch of weight room records at all right. Well,
Speaker 2: by the way, all right, man, So a lot of
Speaker 2: a lot of contrasts got done. Still some few to go,
Speaker 2: but starting off with today, Zach Steeler with the Dolphins
Speaker 2: agrees to a three year, sec seven million dollar deal.
Speaker 1: Touchdown her turnover, Kinny.
Speaker 3: I'm called a touchdown. It's ironic because what's his face?
Speaker 3: Christian Wilkins literally left the Dolphins because they wouldn't pay him,
Speaker 3: and they end up paying Zach Seeler twice. They paid
Speaker 3: him the year that Wilkins left, and then they just
Speaker 3: paid him again with even more money. Is the tackle
Speaker 3: who had He's a journeyman who had, like I.
Speaker 1: Think he was a fair state.
Speaker 3: He had like ten sacks, tending to have sacks I
Speaker 3: think a couple of years ago. So he's put up
Speaker 3: career numbers in Miami and at least been one of
Speaker 3: the bright spots of that defense, because man, that defense
Speaker 3: is an injury.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna say it's a touchdown too, just because
Speaker 2: they have to pay someone over there.
Speaker 1: So yeah, why not With.
Speaker 3: Mika Fitzpatrick being back, It's kind of weird, but I
Speaker 3: guess I think he'll probably be chilling because they know
Speaker 3: he's in safety.
Speaker 1: Now. It's like, hey, I'm not playing corner, I'm in safety.
Speaker 2: Courtland Sutton got a four year, ninety two million dollar extension.
Speaker 2: Touchdown or turnover touchdown.
Speaker 3: I mean, he's been one of the best receivers in
Speaker 3: recent franchise history and consistent, and I think he's averaged
Speaker 3: like almost sixteen yards of catch for his career. Like
Speaker 3: he's a very productive receiver when healthy.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, he's not gonna win you a
Speaker 2: fantasy championship, but he's good for eighty yards and a touchdown.
Speaker 1: So he'll randomly golf for twenty seven points.
Speaker 2: He's consistent, that's for sure. He's bout next favorite targets.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna say's a touchdown that had to keep him,
Speaker 2: especially Broncos don't usually pay receivers, so him Troy Franklin
Speaker 2: that they get they play off each other.
Speaker 1: Good.
Speaker 2: Uh Sam's speaking of uh Denver also gave Zach Allen
Speaker 2: a four year, seventy million dollar guaranteed extension hundred and
Speaker 2: two million total touchdown or turnover.
Speaker 3: And as a touchdown they pay their guys. They're paying
Speaker 3: their Cornerstone guys.
Speaker 2: Yeah, hopefully he keeps playing like he has the past
Speaker 2: two years and doesn't revert to Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 1: Zach Allen just get lost. I was a young Zach Allen.
Speaker 1: I know, So where college? Did he go to? Iowa?
Speaker 3: Did he go to Boston College? They went to Iowa.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure he went to Boston College.
Speaker 1: Are you sure? Google it? Yeah, Zach Allen went to
Speaker 1: Boston College. Are you ready to go? Why? Dude?
Speaker 3: Logan Logan Ryan or something or Dean Lowry even though
Speaker 3: he got a Northwestern went to Northwestern whatever by uh.
Speaker 1: Next, the uh.
Speaker 2: Colts gave a Bernard Ryman a four year, one hundred
Speaker 2: million dollar extension touchdown or turnover here.
Speaker 3: And that thing was I think it was like eighty minute.
Speaker 3: It might have been eighty or ninety million dollars guaranteed.
Speaker 3: He was like one of the richest contracts ever. I
Speaker 3: think it's the richest contract of all time. The no,
Speaker 3: I think somebody surpassed someone just surpassed it, or wait, no,
Speaker 3: he just surpassed it. Is Rashaun Slater just got a
Speaker 3: deal last week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, when he was the record center at
Speaker 2: one hundred and fourteen million guaranteed, no guaranteed, ninety two million.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would saying like, yeah, I know, somebody got
Speaker 3: ninety two million. I think Raymond got won seventy six guaranteed.
Speaker 1: Or something like that.
Speaker 2: Breeman got sixty million guaranteed. All right, so shut so.
Speaker 2: Rashaun Slater is still the highest of all time, of
Speaker 2: all time ninety two million guaranteed, which is crazy considering
Speaker 2: his injury history. But I mean he's been he's an
Speaker 2: a great player.
Speaker 1: He's an All Pro six foot four left tackle. Yep. Crazy,
Speaker 1: And he.
Speaker 3: Just got divorced from his wife, and his wife was like,
Speaker 3: don't make this about me. He earned that contract. I'm
Speaker 3: just glad the Chargers gave him that ship. After he
Speaker 3: got his divorce was finalized.
Speaker 2: And a Colton Miller got a three year, sixty six
Speaker 2: million dollar extension with the Raiders, forty three.
Speaker 3: And a half million dollars guaranteed. I mean, who else
Speaker 3: were you going to get better? Yeah, so I guess
Speaker 3: you have to pay premium price for of top fifteen.
Speaker 1: I mean talking about later getting ninety million. I don't
Speaker 1: think you're talking Slater was an all pro.
Speaker 2: But I'm just saying you're talking about Slater getting thirty
Speaker 2: million a year. Essentially, that's fine. Cold Miller's only getting
Speaker 2: but barely twenty.
Speaker 1: So I think that's fair. I think that's a good deal. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a fair slot.
Speaker 2: But I mean he's never been a he'll never be
Speaker 2: a player at his position.
Speaker 3: He's always he's never been top five in the top ten,
Speaker 3: so I think he's barely top ten.
Speaker 1: He's like top.
Speaker 2: Twelve either way, either way, a better player there either way.
Speaker 1: His contract has always been a good value.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, he's always got this money for six
Speaker 3: eight to be that agile. Congratulations, man, deserve it. Nobody
Speaker 3: was expecting that for him. He could become something we
Speaker 3: you cannot And I honestly the Raiders got a pretty cheap
Speaker 3: deal on a really good left tackle.
Speaker 1: She falls off the clift and.
Speaker 2: Hell for this is over all right and it already
Speaker 2: forg It's time to get to this ship. Take your
Speaker 2: tangent first up. Christian Wilkins aka foot in boot God
Speaker 2: aka mister knock you out and then kiss you afterwards
Speaker 2: aka Adam Butler's protagonist efteen reason why so yeah.
Speaker 1: Take your tangent.
Speaker 2: Raiders cutting Christian Wilkins a year after making him one
Speaker 2: of the highest paid defensive players, season ended after five
Speaker 2: games due to a foot injury reportedly needed a second surgery.
Speaker 2: Didn't want to get it, got a bunch of second opinions,
Speaker 2: they still didn't want to get it.
Speaker 1: He didn't even get a second opinion.
Speaker 2: And yeah, it turns out he had an HR complain
Speaker 2: about him basically kissing his teammate on the cheek, just
Speaker 2: trying to belittle him. Now everyone's bringing up all these
Speaker 2: ig videos of him doing for shit that Clemson.
Speaker 1: Well, he was always taking his fingers in people's asses
Speaker 1: in the years, ripping balls.
Speaker 3: So yeah, man, which is dirty like line play? You
Speaker 3: don't you don't play with another man's balls. Take your tangent.
Speaker 3: I've had gay height, I've had gay teammates in high
Speaker 3: school and they didn't play that shit, cause it doesn't
Speaker 3: feel good getting your ball squeezed when you're trying to
Speaker 3: hit a down block.
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel good like that. There's a line you
Speaker 1: don't cross.
Speaker 3: And Christian Wilkins has always been an habitual lion stepper
Speaker 3: and been seen as a dirty player by other people
Speaker 3: in the league who played too much. So I just
Speaker 3: it just sucks that that draft class Dexter Lawrence, Christian Wilkins,
Speaker 3: Cleveland Farrell, Devin White, and the Raiders picked all the
Speaker 3: wrong Clemson players. Shoot my bad, Sorry, wrong Tiger. I
Speaker 3: don't refer was it that draft class?
Speaker 1: Was he? Either way, they should have just drafted Dexter.
Speaker 1: Lawns have their time.
Speaker 3: Tanner mused, mister, I got my ankles tooking by Justin Jefferson.
Speaker 3: I run a four to four, but I got like
Speaker 3: seventy eight the corner from there too. Yeah, mister, I
Speaker 3: had to pick six one title game and rolled that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I just think it's crazy because how long
Speaker 2: have we been banging the table for the Raiders to
Speaker 2: get a defensive tackle.
Speaker 1: They finally get one, and he turns.
Speaker 3: Into Javon Walker, even worse worse than Javon Walker even
Speaker 3: worse than that, it's Javon Walker, Lamar Woodley.
Speaker 1: Jack. Now, the Raiders got so many defensive tackles. Shoot,
Speaker 1: you might be on the roster as a defensive tackle.
Speaker 1: I probably am.
Speaker 2: I'm just surprised they haven't signed somebody else with veterans
Speaker 2: starting to experience, just because Pete Harrell usually picks up
Speaker 2: pay a lot of veterans defensive tackles, and those tackles, Oh,
Speaker 2: get rashiem Green. But right now it's just kind of
Speaker 2: a bunch of journeyman, undrafted late round picks.
Speaker 1: Stuff like that. Can anybody play next to Max Crosby?
Speaker 2: And Yeah, I guess we're still hoping Chris, I mean,
Speaker 2: Tyree Wilson turns into something.
Speaker 1: But he gutsually got tack on. Now who knows. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: you gave oh boy all that money. Who broke bust
Speaker 1: his foot? Chris? Hecuts all that money.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're talking about Wilkins potential patriots. They're talking about
Speaker 2: a legal battle over the thirty five million in guaranteed
Speaker 2: money for this year.
Speaker 3: Well, you're gonna have to get another medical thing before
Speaker 3: anybody signs them again.
Speaker 2: So so it's just a mess of a situation something
Speaker 2: the Raiders didn't want to have. After an all around
Speaker 2: positive off season, after getting all that energy in the room,
Speaker 2: it just became, you know, auditioned by subtraction. But still
Speaker 2: you're still defense is still missing a big hole. And
Speaker 2: presumably if everything goes right on the lego, then they
Speaker 2: should have some money and they should trade for one
Speaker 2: of these guys that we're going to talk about is
Speaker 2: available for trade trade.
Speaker 1: Hendrickson been available, so.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, but yeah they should make that trade. But
Speaker 2: if not, there's another person on the the block at
Speaker 2: this point.
Speaker 1: Who just moved to the top of the list.
Speaker 2: Michael Parsons demanded the trade, went on a whole ig
Speaker 2: notes fucking rant about why he doesn't want to be
Speaker 2: a dollas cowboy anymore. All his teammates basically changed their
Speaker 2: profile pictures to him just in solidarity.
Speaker 1: They basically aligned with him.
Speaker 2: Ceede Lamb was like, I mean, Ceedee Lamb's been saying that,
Speaker 2: like pay this.
Speaker 1: Man, Like what are we waiting? Like why? Like what
Speaker 1: are we doing to that? Dude's dick is really big?
Speaker 2: But yeah, man, touchdown and turn balls are so small though,
Speaker 2: and useless. Uh, touchdown and turnover Michael. I mean take
Speaker 2: her tangent Michael Parsons demanding a trade.
Speaker 1: Dude demanding a trade.
Speaker 3: Touchdown for Michael Parsons, turnover for the asshole with a
Speaker 3: really loud motor.
Speaker 1: I mean.
Speaker 3: Jerry has lost yet. I mean history has showed. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you should have not fired Jimmy Johnson. You know you
Speaker 3: probably should have fired Jason Garrett Tuner, whatever. But I
Speaker 3: just think when it comes down to it, you don't
Speaker 3: like Sorry, but Michael Parsons was the first six foot three,
Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty pounds linebacker who was really playing
Speaker 3: middle linebacker and outside linebacker. And you said we're gonna
Speaker 3: use him as a defensive end and he's been everything
Speaker 3: is advertised, Like that doesn't just grow on trees. I
Speaker 3: know all these dns run four threes and four fours now,
Speaker 3: but that dude is different.
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons is a unique animal. He is not you don't.
Speaker 3: You don't find that walking down the street, Like it's
Speaker 3: easier to find the Aaron Donald than it is of
Speaker 3: Michael Parsons. That's how rare Michael Parsons is. And so
Speaker 3: the fact that like Jerry's like this is it's gonna
Speaker 3: blow over. It's like, not everybody is playing with you, man,
Speaker 3: not some people really want their money. And this is
Speaker 3: for the first time since maybe Dion, like Michael Parsons
Speaker 3: can literally just force Jerry's hand.
Speaker 2: Because you know, he's the best DEFs player in the league.
Speaker 2: For me, this just always kind of felt in evitable
Speaker 2: Raiders should just, like ever since, whenever they want, give
Speaker 2: it to him. I felt like this was always going
Speaker 2: to come to a boiling point a trade. Max Crosby
Speaker 2: just just with how Parsons has been so good from
Speaker 2: the jump off, like you mentioned, been able to play
Speaker 2: multiple positions really kind of I mean, he's really the
Speaker 2: face of that team right now. I mean I would
Speaker 2: say even more than CD or DAK for sure, Like
Speaker 2: and the way he's built up his profile and platform
Speaker 2: on the podcast, doing the podcast and the social media.
Speaker 2: It's like, to me, it always felt like this relationship
Speaker 2: was going to kind of ball over. So I don't know,
Speaker 2: it seems like it might be the best interest for
Speaker 2: both teams to kind of go a different way because
Speaker 2: you can get a haul for Michael Parsons right now,
Speaker 2: and also you're still trying to figure out you're trying
Speaker 2: to figure out what the identity to this team is. Like,
Speaker 2: we know CD and Dak are two of your greatst players,
Speaker 2: but Dallas has been good. It's through running the ball,
Speaker 2: and they got some they got some new backs there.
Speaker 2: They got a new coach who's making coaches run gasters
Speaker 2: with the players on some campy shit. But we'll see
Speaker 2: how it goes. But yeah, I don't blame Parsons for
Speaker 2: wanting out. I feel like it was always just inevitable.
Speaker 3: And if you don't want my if you don't want
Speaker 3: my legal counsel in the room with me to negotiate,
Speaker 3: then you're not serious about negotiating that whole old school
Speaker 3: trust me at my word. No, you're a billionaire. I
Speaker 3: don't trust anything you say. You spill blood to get
Speaker 3: this money. You think I'm just gonna sit up here
Speaker 3: and just.
Speaker 1: Be like, yeah, sure, you'll do right by me, like
Speaker 1: you did right by the Marcus ware.
Speaker 3: As Bryant, who already been going at it with NICKI Minaj,
Speaker 3: but mostly like he pretty much threw out a warning
Speaker 3: to Jerry Jones, like keep my name out of your mouth,
Speaker 3: because I stay quiet about a lot of fucked up shit.
Speaker 2: Scary Terry officially requested a trade touchdown or I mean
Speaker 2: take your tangent on that.
Speaker 3: They should have never let it get this far. You
Speaker 3: pay that man the reason why he's approaching thirty and
Speaker 3: play with all these trash ass qbs.
Speaker 1: He would have had better numbers. You gave him a
Speaker 1: great QB one year, and what did you do?
Speaker 3: Almost lead the league evening touchdowns or like thirteen he
Speaker 3: kept them in that game against the Eagles.
Speaker 2: I mean he was basically Yeah, he was basically their
Speaker 2: passing offense last year. So I feel like you have
Speaker 2: to keep him in if you're going to trade him,
Speaker 2: you you got to try.
Speaker 1: To get a receiver back at this point, and you.
Speaker 3: Should have took a receiver in the draft if you
Speaker 3: were just okay with trade, just oh, we don't need
Speaker 3: to Gary Terry.
Speaker 1: So why did you bring in more offensive firepower? Because
Speaker 1: who's the running backs? Unimpressed? Who was the other receiver?
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel Okay?
Speaker 3: So nine games in a hurt AC joint, he's good
Speaker 3: for nine games and an AC joint injury. Boymen hitting
Speaker 3: his elbow so much, I don't know how his fingers
Speaker 3: still work.
Speaker 1: That's what he wears those pads like.
Speaker 3: He was getting fucked up in San Francisco early in
Speaker 3: his career. That's why when he finally got paid, he's like,
Speaker 3: all right, I'll do that little trick, play shit, But like,
Speaker 3: you can't be having me taking fifteen cares a game
Speaker 3: and then get eight catches and you want to pay
Speaker 3: me like ten million a year like a bum.
Speaker 1: But yeah, scary.
Speaker 2: They need to just keep him because he slots there perfectly, and.
Speaker 1: The team that's not gonna pay anybody else.
Speaker 2: They're a team that a lot of people have taken
Speaker 2: a jump and losing him is not going to help
Speaker 2: them do that.
Speaker 1: So just then pay him.
Speaker 3: You literally were one game away from the super Bowl.
Speaker 3: Pay him and stop being stupid.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: Trey Hendrickson ended his holdout, reports, the camp ends the
Speaker 2: fifty K day fines take her Tangent still wants a.
Speaker 1: New deal, still haven't needed up.
Speaker 3: Its technically a hold in yep, and man, yay, they
Speaker 3: will never know peace and.
Speaker 2: They're about to get ricos they get getting on investigating ship.
Speaker 3: But yeah, this is just probably knowledge, Like for sure,
Speaker 3: people mad that why would you let them put that
Speaker 3: in there? That they could find you fifty k a
Speaker 3: day when you're trying to hold out to get paid
Speaker 3: like so that that in itself is a whole mess,
Speaker 3: which will work it tough out.
Speaker 1: I don't really have nothing to say about it. Noah
Speaker 1: Funt joins the Bengals, take your tangent.
Speaker 3: That's a fucking win for Noah fun I mean, the
Speaker 3: first time in his career he's like in a perfect
Speaker 3: situation because Denver, he he was all right for a
Speaker 3: little bit, but it really wasn't the right situation and
Speaker 3: he got traded way too fast.
Speaker 1: And then Seattle they just get another tight end. Though,
Speaker 1: did they get Koseki or someone?
Speaker 3: No, they still have the UCLA tight end. They just
Speaker 3: someone I think they did though they did, But like
Speaker 3: he's a true receiving drip like for five speed, same
Speaker 3: drive fast TJ.
Speaker 2: Hockinson to what I mean, you saw what they did
Speaker 2: at the old Zuma and hated hers the past couple
Speaker 2: of years.
Speaker 3: Signed with the Bengals. They do got Yeah, I was
Speaker 3: thinking about the Broncos. Sorry, but yeah, So with.
Speaker 2: You got two great pass catching tight ends field stretchers.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's presumably if that offense is line.
Speaker 2: And hold up the Bangals basically got an op passing offense.
Speaker 2: They really do, like like they should really go. Like
Speaker 2: if the NFL had a passing league, the Bengals would
Speaker 2: win it decisively.
Speaker 3: Literally t Higgins, Jamar Chase Who's always open.
Speaker 1: When he's fucking Olympic hurdler in the slot. It was
Speaker 1: the Olympic hurdler in the slot. He's a service. Oh,
Speaker 1: Andre got it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, even got the running back court not Brown hands. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's not Sydney. It's a sexual see Chase Chase Brown.
Speaker 3: People love him in fantasy this year. Yeah, I like
Speaker 3: Joe Mixon and finally signed his contract whom Stewart, Yeah,
Speaker 3: finally signed it. They finally he got like an extra
Speaker 3: money up front and he agreed to their language.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be real interesting because like he.
Speaker 3: Was a very raw prospect even though he ran a
Speaker 3: four or five, especially with this Murphy on the other
Speaker 3: side though, So so you got him Mason Murphy and
Speaker 3: then Trey Hendrickson who and may not. That's crazy to
Speaker 3: be that great and they just don't want to pay you,
Speaker 3: Like it's the same thing when they didn't want to
Speaker 3: pay his son Reddick. Yep, they just don't want to
Speaker 3: pay you when it's time to pay you, and it's like,
Speaker 3: how else is.
Speaker 1: He going to get his money?
Speaker 2: Saints son Julian Blackman shout out to Tyler Matthew the
Speaker 2: honey Badger for retiring, but black Men essentially is one
Speaker 2: of the people that slated to replace him.
Speaker 1: So you take your tangent.
Speaker 3: Young talents and safety are the utah, the no ball
Speaker 3: there at these things that he's an all there defensively
Speaker 3: at Saints defense is the front seven. That's when it
Speaker 3: comes down for sure.
Speaker 2: UH Raiders sign Jamal and Adams convert him to linebacker
Speaker 2: full time.
Speaker 1: Take your tangent.
Speaker 3: We went from the slowest linebacking group in the league
Speaker 3: to the fastest.
Speaker 1: It's crazy because had like a four to three, You're
Speaker 1: like a four to three three four. I just want
Speaker 1: to know who wins the race with him and Devin
Speaker 1: White right now.
Speaker 2: I mean I still think they are. They still both
Speaker 2: sub four five. I mean Devin White was put up
Speaker 2: a four to six. Devin White was like a four
Speaker 2: to four one four four flat.
Speaker 3: Jamal Adams was like a four three five for three
Speaker 3: three at his pro day at LSU.
Speaker 1: But LSU has fast pro dase too, but he ran
Speaker 1: in the four.
Speaker 2: Threes Chargers at Nahim Hines take her tangent.
Speaker 3: They needed an extra running back who could play special
Speaker 3: teams and it's trustworthy. I think the last time we
Speaker 3: saw him he got fucked up, right, He toursh cl
Speaker 3: on a skiing accident. He got hurt before then too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was out of the league for like two
Speaker 1: years practically, James Houston, take her tangent to the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: Wasn't he there already? He somewhere else. He was with
Speaker 1: the Lions. I thought he was there.
Speaker 3: He went somewhere else and then went to the Cowboys.
Speaker 3: But I mean, they need all the addressers they can get.
Speaker 3: He's not gonna Michel Parsons. You need all the addressers
Speaker 3: you can get. S They are one of their linemen
Speaker 3: broken broken, broke his neck. He's out for a couple
Speaker 3: of weeks, Which how to fuck you out for a
Speaker 3: couple weeks with a broken neck. The broken neck is
Speaker 3: like the only thing where it's like, and you didn't die.
Speaker 1: I broke my neck. How the fuck are you still existing?
Speaker 2: I'm rooting for dude. We interviewed him a few years
Speaker 2: ago at the Bowl game. So Smith, no James Houston.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, you're right, you're right. Yeah, that's uh
Speaker 2: all right, and uh Dallas is looking at Looe Collins.
Speaker 1: He signed him. They signed him because they were tagic.
Speaker 3: Uh ship, that's that's the way they needed because he's familiar.
Speaker 3: He can play, he can play four out of the
Speaker 3: five positions. Uh, you already lost Guiden.
Speaker 1: He's been trash like the last two years.
Speaker 3: He was on the Bengals. Everybody looks trash on the Bengals.
Speaker 3: Fair enough, you lost Guiden lost the card. He lost
Speaker 3: some other guys. Terrence Steel's hurt. At least he knows
Speaker 3: the system and he knows the program. So and he
Speaker 3: loves dak He loves Dakota. So here you go.
Speaker 1: Petan Ellen visits the Chargers.
Speaker 2: Take your tangent? Did I put this in fair fade? Whatever,
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter, Take your tangent. I would just walking
Speaker 2: there and be like, look you fucking far we fall.
Speaker 2: It's only gone a yere like, I don't know why
Speaker 2: he needs a visit, Just fucking sign him. I'm like,
Speaker 2: we're playing choy here. So you so you need you
Speaker 2: guys need a receiver. He needs a job. Philip Rivers
Speaker 2: is back. Let's just keep your own work. Just keep
Speaker 2: the Kumba moments rolling.
Speaker 1: The hall. You got new.
Speaker 2: Uniforms, chargers trying to pick a charge went back to
Speaker 2: USD for training camp for one.
Speaker 3: Day, which that's definitely they're trying to right their curses
Speaker 3: all they're trying, so so take a while, just just
Speaker 3: get just get.
Speaker 1: Kidding Allen bag. That's not that hard. That makes too
Speaker 1: much sense.
Speaker 3: Bringing Malcolm Floyd if he's not there, that's for personal reasons.
Speaker 1: He's probably like fifty now.
Speaker 3: No, he's just had a fucked up neck and he
Speaker 3: had to retire. Yeah, but he was a baller.
Speaker 1: He's old now, so is LT. But he's younging in LT.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Bro? Are you high right now? No?
Speaker 1: I'm saying Malcolm. Why would they sign Malcolm? No, I
Speaker 1: mean sign him. I mean, like just have him in
Speaker 1: the building. A personality. He's okay, good dudel. It's confused.
Speaker 1: I was like, Bro, what the fuck are you saying?
Speaker 5: No? No, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: I would never Why would I say Malcolm Floyd. That's
Speaker 3: one of the receivers you bring up when people want
Speaker 3: to talk about random receivers. You're like Malcolm Floyd.
Speaker 2: All right, uh, WWE doubling down on Mega and also
Speaker 2: bringing back broadlast name.
Speaker 1: Told you they don't see color. Yeah, you believe them.
Speaker 1: Wrestling is Carnie ship at its core, meaning they will
Speaker 1: lie to you and you them.
Speaker 3: Ship that The Rock came out and said they dispot
Speaker 3: johnsena is roasting Travis Scott in promos. WWE is like
Speaker 3: totally dissociating themselves from Travis Scott altogether. They had a
Speaker 3: blowing up the fut. I don't know what happened. Wrestling
Speaker 3: journals wouldn't say what happened, but some ship fell apart
Speaker 3: and they're not on good terms anymore. That's why when
Speaker 3: Johnsen was cutting this promo before Summer Slam, he took
Speaker 3: a dig at Travis Scott.
Speaker 1: I don't get it, but all right, you gotta watchline.
Speaker 1: It's not a storyline like they don't fuck with him.
Speaker 3: It came out they had to argument Travis Scott's piece
Speaker 3: of ship based on everybody he's ever worked with and
Speaker 3: what pushes he said and how everything's been coming out.
Speaker 1: It's so fact though, So what did he say? You're
Speaker 1: still not saying they didn't.
Speaker 3: They won't say what happened, but sources pretty much like
Speaker 3: they had a fallen out.
Speaker 1: He had to falling out with the execs or whatever.
Speaker 1: They fell out.
Speaker 3: It was fuck you, no, fuck you, but nobody's talking
Speaker 3: about it. But it was just really weird that John
Speaker 3: Cena came on national television and during a promo just
Speaker 3: took a ship on Travis Scott's life. What did he
Speaker 3: say pretty much was like, don't worried.
Speaker 1: I won't.
Speaker 5: You.
Speaker 3: The next time a platinum rapper comes in and fucks
Speaker 3: up your match or bitch slaps you, it'll be me.
Speaker 1: He They pretty much like this Travis Scott. He backhanded
Speaker 1: this Travis Scott, you see injured?
Speaker 3: Well yeah we all know that, but like, no, they
Speaker 3: fell out after the Rock shit, after the Rock came out.
Speaker 3: I was like, my job with that storyline is over.
Speaker 3: And Triple A just like you fuck her. You literally
Speaker 3: wanted Cody to turn heel, which would have fucked up
Speaker 3: on all our business. We have to turn seenor heell
Speaker 3: and instead of you sticking it out with Seea since
Speaker 3: he turned heel, you left him out to dry and
Speaker 3: then seeing it pretty much had to abandon the whole
Speaker 3: heel seen A thing hard?
Speaker 1: Was that so hard to break down?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 1: What did it take you five questions to give that breakdown?
Speaker 1: Because you kept asking me what happened?
Speaker 3: I was like, I don't know what the fuck Travis
Speaker 3: scot and then said personally to where they fell out,
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you nobody did the company fucks with him?
Speaker 1: Now? Got it? All right? That makes a lot more
Speaker 1: sense Because you said it's a word. I was like,
Speaker 1: I gonna go to a w probably. Yeah, he's a whore.
Speaker 1: He's a whore for money. He'll do it crazy. They'll
Speaker 1: do it too crazy, they'll do it all right.
Speaker 2: But yeah, back to the original point, fair feed bringing
Speaker 2: back lessendary and all subjects.
Speaker 3: He literally is in a lawsuit with Janelle Grant forty
Speaker 3: four different times, like Vince mcmanu thatcmailed him to come
Speaker 3: back and resign with the company by having her fuck him.
Speaker 3: And there's whole text messages of like by the time
Speaker 3: I get through it there, you're not gonna be able
Speaker 3: to use her anymore, not even to stick your thinging
Speaker 3: or like it's some graphic text messages like I'm being tame.
Speaker 1: Go read the transcripts. It's pretty fucking dark. It's is
Speaker 1: only a matter of time before Vincent Man comes back.
Speaker 1: Triple H's been standing next to Trump this whole time.
Speaker 1: They just they got a huge pop up brock Lesnar
Speaker 1: coming back, Which why the fuck is brock Lesnar coming back?
Speaker 3: Triple Ah doesn't like there's some things about Triple H.
Speaker 3: People call out the racism. It's like, bro, you've never
Speaker 3: booked anybody to be better than you. Those are facts.
Speaker 1: Look at all the people he buried when.
Speaker 3: He was wrestling. Now that he's in charge of the
Speaker 3: main roster. Kamlo Hayes fucking dead in the water. All
Speaker 3: this black talent that was killing it in the NXT
Speaker 3: because Shawn Michaels knows how to actually push and promote
Speaker 3: black talent Black wrestlers. When they get to the main roster,
Speaker 3: they're just fucking dead in the water, just like uh
Speaker 3: montest Ford and Dawkins with the Street profits dead in
Speaker 3: the water.
Speaker 1: What the fuck is befab doing? Biakable hurt. But it's
Speaker 1: like he just he he has he's he's standing with
Speaker 1: a bunch of dudes who are like fucking Nazis and
Speaker 1: horrible people.
Speaker 3: And fellas, just like Triple ain't standing next to all
Speaker 3: these dudes. It's like, oh, that's who you hang with,
Speaker 3: that's who you do business with. All right, bet we
Speaker 3: get it now. That's why got re signed because the
Speaker 3: w W was made to look really bad because they're like,
Speaker 3: everybody loves Vince. Vince may have been a racist and
Speaker 3: a sexist, but god damnit, he at least gave everybody
Speaker 3: a shot.
Speaker 1: That's sad when you have to defend man.
Speaker 2: Speaking of chaos, ESPN Fox Fox Sports made a bunch
Speaker 2: of fires.
Speaker 1: ESPN made a bunch of fires.
Speaker 2: They parted ways with Shannon Sharp right before his brother
Speaker 2: was inducted into the Hall of Fame. There's rumors saying
Speaker 2: they're gonna let go Kendrick Perkins bunch ship. Uh, they
Speaker 2: got rid of Marcus Morris. Isn't he in an Rico
Speaker 2: with yea? Yeah, basically legal betting around betting wants they
Speaker 2: did was rent out the house allegedly, but we'll see
Speaker 2: what happens.

Speaker 1: so fair fade Shannon Sharp against ESPN. I don't even
Speaker 1: know how much I can say since he's apparently bought. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's wild.
Speaker 2: That's a whole other thing, NFL I was gonna talk
Speaker 2: about in mind, that was an argument.

Speaker 3: people told that man stop working out with these young girls,
Speaker 3: mainly these young white girls.
Speaker 1: The ruin your life in two weekends? And what Cat
Speaker 1: Williams said that, and what.
Speaker 3: Happened to Sean, what happened to Shannon Sharp's life ruined

Speaker 1: like what's that chick that I'm sure he'll be back
Speaker 1: on a Trump cabinet board or some country pumpkin ass
Speaker 1: motherfucker talked all that shit. Look at you now, I
Speaker 1: swear it just gotta be blessing idiots sometimes like just.
Speaker 2: Put me in a position to give they get some
Speaker 2: new people at some light instead of just giving the
Speaker 2: same people more shine, like no one needs more fucking

Speaker 2: Meda comes, clean that up, media comes fan takes, Like,
Speaker 2: let's get some new blood in. Then let's get some
Speaker 2: non athlete, non Bristol dick suckers in the seat.

Speaker 2: I just mean like, I just mean glazy.
Speaker 3: You mentioned ESPN and dick sucking in the same sense
Speaker 3: about sexual assault, the same thing.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like they've been all around. Whatever sexual
Speaker 2: way you want to cut it, it still cuts the
Speaker 2: same way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just wild. Take it. Uh, go ahead, get
Speaker 1: to your rare and what are you gonna say? It's
Speaker 1: been a very interesting week for me. Uh start my
Speaker 1: phone and me I forgot about one more.
Speaker 5: One more.
Speaker 2: John said they want the king's ransom for jamis fair faid.
Speaker 1: They say that.
Speaker 2: They said they won't trade him unless it's for a
Speaker 2: godfather like offer. Take your tadget.
Speaker 1: That's so that's.
Speaker 3: Cash lighting as fun. It's like, don't overvalue me, knowing
Speaker 3: God damn well, that's not my market value, you asshole.
Speaker 3: Now nobody's gonna want me. That's that's like getting a
Speaker 3: girl pregnant you didn't even love, but like at least
Speaker 3: she's a good woman, but now she's a baby mom.
Speaker 2: It's just like really loved me because you're not really
Speaker 2: making me your number one, like you know, your sight
Speaker 2: being ready to grow up. You don't want to let
Speaker 2: him go, so you just do whatever you can to
Speaker 2: pump them up. But really you don't want them to go.
Speaker 2: You just don't want them to you know, that's really
Speaker 2: what it comes down.
Speaker 3: You got comfortable with them needing you and in version
Speaker 3: of that, and that's not fair. That's not a wait
Speaker 3: a allowed to established girls.
Speaker 1: Said you already said Russell is your starter, which means
Speaker 1: fucking mister ole, miss jack and Dark is your number two.
Speaker 2: So trade jamis Yeah, you don't get to hold on
Speaker 2: to him and afford him if you're not gonna if
Speaker 2: you don't have a role for him, what's the point.
Speaker 1: That's foul?
Speaker 3: But hey, work is work, Yeah, back to your ran.
Speaker 3: So so August first mark three years me working the
Speaker 3: NFL network. It's my fourth season, third year. I think,
Speaker 3: what everything that's happened this year? My nephew's birthday parties,
Speaker 3: rather than if you just hit nine months feeling like
Speaker 3: an old man, feeling my mortality and life, how quickly
Speaker 3: can be taken away?
Speaker 1: Thatstuonomi shit was scary. It was really scary. I an't
Speaker 1: a lot.
Speaker 3: It's like the big one, like an eight point eight
Speaker 3: earthquake hit Russia, the sixth strongest earthquake in recorded human history,
Speaker 3: and we've just been about our day like nothing fucking happened.
Speaker 3: Like I don't funk around with water in the ocean.
Speaker 3: That shit scares me. Like you could drown in the
Speaker 3: ocean and no one would ever find your body. That
Speaker 3: is a terrifying reality. And like the fact that we're
Speaker 3: just having earthquakes every day. Yeah, shit worries me. So
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be posting more of my videos and stuff.
Speaker 3: Big tim Media Day, my West Media Day as the
Speaker 3: season goes on. Beat a couple of games too, uh,
Speaker 3: going to a Dodger game Monday night, so that's gonna
Speaker 3: be lit.
Speaker 1: And yeah, just thankful for my family, friends and whatnot.
Speaker 1: And just realized I had a really intense conversation, internal
Speaker 1: conversation with myself, and I'm just giving up ice cream.
Speaker 2: So yeah, there, I'm kind of with you on the
Speaker 2: ice cream. But yeah, man, it's been an interesting couple
Speaker 2: of weeks from me. Last week I finally made it
Speaker 2: to Petco Park, got to go to a Padres game.
Speaker 1: Pet Coo Park, man, real underrated.
Speaker 2: People say it's the best stadium in America, and honestly
Speaker 2: it's it probably is because they got a whole downtown
Speaker 2: area there. Just the whole experience is great. I've heard
Speaker 2: even music festivals are great there, like Peco Park is
Speaker 2: the place to be. Got to go to the Zoo,
Speaker 2: have some beers with my girl. It was nice. And
Speaker 2: then yeah, outside of that, just been continuing to coach.
Speaker 2: We took our first l this week just on little
Speaker 2: stupid execution things, special teams. But yeah, man, you never
Speaker 2: want to You always want to win, but I really
Speaker 2: hate losing. So just gonna get back to the basics
Speaker 2: and keep building from here and our goals are still
Speaker 2: in front of us.
Speaker 1: Yeah man.
Speaker 2: Finally, the fucking ESPN NFL network deal it reportedly closed
Speaker 2: or closing. Just crazy. It took a Trump government for
Speaker 2: them to kind of finally push this deal over. I
Speaker 2: mean they've been talking about this for you know, seven
Speaker 2: to ten years, but really the past two to three
Speaker 2: years it's really heated up.
Speaker 1: And so now we're in this you.
Speaker 2: Know, hyper consolidation fucking time with basically all these billionaires
Speaker 2: in power. So deal makes sense. I mean, I think
Speaker 2: things with the NFL are kind of I think the
Speaker 2: NFL is kind of running out of runway as far
Speaker 2: as just like printing money and not doing anything about
Speaker 2: it being a nonprofit and all that shit. So I
Speaker 2: think people are just kind of tired of seeing that.
Speaker 2: And also they're getting more involved with these private equity
Speaker 2: firms and just really trying to find ways to make
Speaker 2: even more money. So I think that's why they're getting
Speaker 2: rid of these kind of assets that they have content
Speaker 2: with media things like that, just to really focus on
Speaker 2: the real estate business, focus on their key revenue drivers
Speaker 2: rather than kind of like the adjacent.
Speaker 1: Services that support them.
Speaker 2: And for ESPN, I mean, this just continues them kind
Speaker 2: of having first access to everything, and now that they
Speaker 2: won't have to pay extra money to do all these
Speaker 2: documents with the NFL and things of that nature, they
Speaker 2: won't have to pay extra money to build these AI
Speaker 2: programs that can go through all this NFL content and archives.
Speaker 1: So for them, it's really a win.
Speaker 2: And as you can see, I mean, while some of
Speaker 2: these talent decisions aren't directly influenced by this future deal,
Speaker 2: I think they provide some context around it. Like you're
Speaker 2: gonna see some more people get fired because there's just
Speaker 2: gonna be less spots. Hopefully that means, you know, some
Speaker 2: opportunity for some other you know, sports media folks out there.
Speaker 2: But yeah, basically, basically, uh, there's less competition in the field,
Speaker 2: so more competition has to rise.
Speaker 1: And I'll just leave it at that. This is Touchdowns
Speaker 1: and Tangents.
Speaker 2: Touchdowns at tangents dot com, TD's underscore tadgents on Twitter
Speaker 2: and Instagram.
Speaker 1: We are out any
