Speaker 2 (02:48):
Sticks good man, come on, let's do this.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
It's NBA Playoffs. We'll just start their. Congratulations to the
Boston Celtics who finally didn't play with their food for
the first time about five or six years they did.
You remember the parting Casino where Joe Pashi's got Tony
Doggs's head and the vice and it's like, at some point,
you just gotta you gotta call it all right, you

(03:12):
gotta you gotta make the move. The Celtics had Miami's
heading device, and they just just just everything I.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Socket juice, you know, airs rolling out, you know, just yeah,
it was bad.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, so you just had to move on, you know,
you gotta you gotta take care of business. They're not
gonna talk, you know, they were gonna go down fighting.
But there was no Rogier, there was no Jimmy Butler.
The Celtics didn't have Porzingis, but they were completely outmatched.
And if Miami didn't h threes, they had no shot.
That's the only way they won Game two. To begin with,
Celtics move on. All is good. Clippers, on the other hand.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
So much. You mean Mavericks on on the Mavericks happened
to that other Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Of course. But it's just so it's it's so fun.
And I don't know why it takes such delight in
this when people are just like, nah, but this time
it's different, telling you with the Clippers, it's just like, no, no,
that's it's a different story this time. This time it's
going to be different. We're telling you this is going

(04:16):
to be a whole new Clippers basketball. And they go
out and get stomped by Dallas last night and h
and now the Mavericks are one game away from advancing
to the next round of the playoffs. And the Kawhi
Leonard injury issue is, you know, rearing its ugly head
once again for the La Clippers. That guy just can't
catch a break, man, Yes he can. What's that he gets?

Speaker 2 (04:40):
He gets to chill out and watch the games.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Is that a break?

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Yeah, that is.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
A break from the action, you know, But listen, when
you take a look at that game, there is too
much length, you know, for for the Clippers. You know,
the use of of of Derrick Jones Junior like dj J.

(05:05):
I mean, those those guys they were balling man like,
lively like balling, and they showed their length. And Kyrie
is able to do what Kyrie does. He facilitates so
well and and you have to pay attention to him
because he can drive, penetrate and and force you know,

(05:29):
force the issue in terms of him creating his own opportunities.
And then Luca obviously is a beast as well. So
when you got two two alpha scores and doncic and
and Irvin and then you got to you know, you
got role players that are are flying at the rim.

(05:49):
It's uh, the Mavericks look pretty good. Now, I don't
know how that translates into a series against a better team. Uh,
it looked as though Paul George might become playoff P again,
but that was rented, not bot And so.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
You know this is I will say this, If you
have a bad game in the NBA playoffs the next
forty eight hours until you get an opportunity to get
that taste out of your mouth, that's probably not a
fun place to be on social media. That's just not
a place very good. If you went to Twitter last
night or x whatever the hell you want to call it,

(06:31):
one of the things that you saw trending was pandemic P.
It's like, well, at least he's out there, you know
what I mean?

Speaker 2 (06:44):
That is fair. At least he's out there trying.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
It's all He's get a lot of help. I mean,
Russell Westbrook is he's basically turned into Draymond Green cut
in half to where you like, you're just like he's
going to get into an altercation. But you just cannot
count on him consistently to to do anything as far
as production wise, to help you get back into games
or get back into a series. And it just seems

(07:07):
like the highlight for him this series was, you know,
getting into an altercation or a dust up with Luca,
only to turn around and see PJ. Washington ready to
rock and he decided, yeah, I don't want any part
of that. So, yeah, it's not not a fun place
to be if you're the Clippers. But yeah, the Mavericks
look look pretty good and now they can you know,
ice them out and advance to the next round that

(07:30):
they take air business in the next game.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
So it's it's a wrap for the Clippers. It's it's
an experiment that did not work. I mean, I don't
I don't see how you continue on with with that roster,
but you.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Kind of have to because you got this new stadium and.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
So yeah, I don't know, I don't know about that.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Unless you're, uh, you're planning on getting Michael Cage out
there to uh, you know, to throw down for a
few minutes or what ever. I mean, Blake Griffin just retired,
so maybe you can bring him out of retirement to
play next year.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
So stupid, that's like, that's a they had a potential.
They had a potential big four on that team, not
a big three, a big four. With with obviously Russ
with with Harden with pandemic p damn and and uh

(08:29):
take a break, take a break, Leonard. I mean they
had a potential Big four pandemic. That's crazy, It's so dumb.
It's kind of funny though the pandemic is over, but
clearly not for for Paul George. I just I don't

(08:50):
see how you continue moving forward with with that roster.
It's not going to work. It's just not going to work.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
But it was so much fun when they when they
first arrived, Like I can remember going on the air,
like five minutes after it was announced that Kawhi and
Paul George were coming, and it was like, first of
all Laker fans were distraught, and then you had I
remember Ben Maller came on and he was excited, like
everybody was really fired up about it. And yet here

(09:20):
we are, same old story, year in, year out, and
it's bad luck, injuries at the wrong time, poor play,
getting wiped out by record numbers in a home game.
Now you're facing elimination. Kyrie irving all of a sudden,
to your point, has found it again to where there
was some questions about whether or not he was washed,

(09:42):
and yet here we are and the Clippers are staring
the same fate, squaring the eyes. So that's that's fun.
So if you're a Clipper fan, I think there's a
couple left you know, our condolences, But it appears like
maybe a rap there if you can't get Kawhi back.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
What's not a rap, it's a you got me. He's
already wrapped, right, bubble wrapped.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
All you're going to do if you get him back
is get the pop up, pup, pup, pup, pop up
for for four for four quarters. He's got enough, He
got enough bubble wrap on him. The pop for four quarters.
My gee.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Now we do have somebody who is not going anywhere,
who you can count on in the big game, who
has dealt with dealt with a little bit of injury
issue last year at the start of the season, but
he did figure it out, bounce back, have a decent year,
only to turn into a monster postseason in the NFL playoffs.
And that is Travis Kelce. Travis Kelce gets the new

(10:39):
deal with the Kansas City Chiefs, gets a little bit
of a raise thirty four plus million dollars over the
next couple of years. It's got him locked up until
he's about thirty eight years old, and it looks like
he's going to get an opportunity to retire a Kansas
City chief. Unlike the Clippers, they've got actual Super Bowl rings,
they've got actual World Championship pedigree, and he always shows

(11:01):
up and everything.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
No pandemic there.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
And I'll tell you what, it kind of does tie
in because Taylor Swift's banner was hung up at Staple Center.
I don't believe it's still got transitioned over to the
Crypto dot Com slash net arena, but her banner was
up there at the Staple Center, So you transitioned from
that over to somebody else who's hung up a lot

(11:25):
of banners. Travis Kelcey, he spoke about getting the new
deal done in Kansas City on the New Heights podcast.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
I'm so excited and I'm so thankful to this organization
for getting it done and making me feel appreciated and
compensated the right way. And on top of that, I
got to move the needle for the tight End room.
You know, it's it's everyone else's job to go out
there and keep making that tight end aa V number
go up and up with every single contract that's that

(11:54):
that's better than mine and in the future. And I
can't thank Kansas City enough my agents for keep knocking
on that door to see if anything's available, knowing that
I'm not a guy that sits out. I'm not a
guy that holds out. I'm a guy that loves coming
into the building. And the chiefs know that. So for
them to want to first of all, want to be

(12:15):
able to get this done for me, knowing how much blood, sweat,
and tears I put into this thing for I'm extremely
grateful and extremely thankful for everybody involved. Man, I love
Kansas City for it.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
See more of the story in the biggest game of
the year. Yeah, well, and in the biggest game, in
the biggest game of the year, if you assault your
coach who just had hip surgery, YouTube.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Can get million dollars. You're so stupid. Why do you
guys so much hate in your heart? Let it out.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
I'm just listen. I'm just trying to point out some
facts here, all right. That was that was a play
that happened in the Super Bowl. Andy Reid just had
hip surgery. Guy's got a plastic hip, and Travis Kelsey
assaulted him.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
I mean he felt alive. You know, that's a former
offensive lineman. You know, he made coach read feel like
he was alive, Like he wasn't the coach, he was wanted,
like he was a teammate. You know, That's all that was.
That's all Travis was going for. Listen when I say
he sounded ready, he sounds like he's ready to go
into the booth, like go behind the desk. He sounds good.

(13:16):
You know, one thing about it. You know, I'm in
this nil space and first and foremost again a second
time of saying congratulations to him. He did move the needle.
He did do something great for the position. He's pushed
it forward. But one thing about athletes, we don't do
enough self development as it applies to the way that

(13:39):
we conduct our business and the way we handle things.
Self development. Yeah, and so to be able to conduct
yourself in a way where it's favorable, it's clear, it's
it's it's polished. I mean, Travis Kelsey has has a
way you can hear his established way of communicating and

(14:03):
it's it's it comes across as very polished. So good
for him. I mean, he's done well. As a football player.
He'll continue to do well as a football player. Their
team is loaded. It's so funny, he I say. I
always say, I'm not going to talk about our conversations.
I did talk to coach Pierce yesterday and and one

(14:25):
of the things he was like, man, he was like,
there was just two guys we didn't want Kansas City
to get a hold of. One was Browers and the
other one was Worthy sid Well. No, I said, well,
at least he got one out of the two. But
they got one out of the two as well. So

(14:46):
but I think it's going to be an interesting It's
going to be an interesting season in the AFC. Wes
and Travis Kelsey will be a major part of that
of that interesting. So you know, of course you're going
to compensate him and find a way to compensate him.

(15:06):
And as Q mentioned yesterday, all they really did was
restructure and move his money up. They moved it from
the back to the front, freeze up cap room for
the team. It keeps your your star tight and happy,
It keeps your quarterback happy. He's got his blanket. Linus
has his blanket. So it all you know, it all
worked out.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
You got to go to blanket in the house.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
I don't. I do not have a go to plank
I do have my my most comfortable blankets. It's like
almost like a like a how is it like a
I can't even explain it, but it's it's like it's
like almost like furry on one side, but then like
almost like smooth on the other. It's it's there's like

(15:50):
two or three of them around the house, and whenever
you see him, it's you jump under him. It's like
you feel like a bearer. Like I can only imagine
what a bear feels like when they they put you know,
put this, you know, living on their fur. But yeah, anyway, yeah,
it's it's a really really good one.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Yeah. I got my This might be inappropriate, but I
got my wife a tortilla blanket a few years back,
and my kid has taken that, like he's completely swiped that.
So that's his now.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
And what is a tortilla blanket?

Speaker 1 (16:21):
It looks like a tortilla, but it's a giant blanket,
but it looks like a tortilla. So I mean, look
that listen. That might be offensive to some people.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
I was trying to put it together because I was like,
did I hear him just say tortilla?

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Yeah, not an actual tortilla, you know, just a giant
blanket that looks like a tortilla.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
I think like a big circle.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, it's like a big circle and it looks like
a giant tortilla.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
Because some people might be sitting there like, what is
a tortilla is like a chip? You know, like is
it like a you know, triangle.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
If there's somebody out there that doesn't know what a
tortilla is, you need to get a life.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
And or there's someone out there that doesn't know what
a tortilla is really, oh yeah, yeah, because when you
think of tortilla, you might think of like a like
a case of dia or something like that. And it's
already like in the half moon type of I wouldn't
have known before I got to California.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Well let me tell you something, Sinkle to MYO. Weekend
coming up.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
It's coming up. Yeah, you might drink.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
You better get your I told you were gonna what
did I tell? I told you there's not a shot
in hell you're going to do this two month crap
that you were throwing out. You got Sinkle, Tomyo, you
love servaces and ice cold modello or something like that.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
And I'm looking pretty good, you know, I've I've lost
some serious weight. I'm feeling pretty good. I just don't
want to mess it up. And you know, drinking messes
it up. I don't have that natural vampire skinny jean
like you do. You know what I mean. I have
to I have to really work to keep myself, you know,
going in the opposite direction of weight.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
I think you're kind of a vampire racist. I gotta
be honest with you, Like it's very demeaning the way
you talk about vampire.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Yeah, I don't. I don't have any hate or malice
towards you your people. I just you know your people.
I just let me tell you something. Me and my
friends on the set of Lost Boys take offense to that.
You got to refer to us as you people, by
the way, much better than some of the other shall not.

(18:20):
And by the way, during the break, we'll come up
with the top mount rushmore vampire movies.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Lee, could you get on that too, because Lost Boys
will be on there. What's is it? Twilight? Is that
what you nerds are into?

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Oh? God? That was when they was putting it. It
was gang banging though, like they they was out there
throwing up gang signs like yo yo vampire, V's v's
b you know what I mean, V's up over And they
was like nah dug west side, west side, werewolf baby,
werewolf side, you know what I mean? On the werewolf side,
like they was banging, ye know what I mean? Yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
So, by the way, it's great. Gang Twilight was just
an excuse for a bunch of guys in their early
twenties to our eyeliner and get away with it. That's
all us. A bunch of craw just a bunch of crap.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
Can you bring us back to the Lost Boy movie soundtrack?
I forget the words, but is a pretty cool so.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
Yeah, good good soundtrack there. So we're off and running here.

Speaker 5 (19:55):
Hey, this is Tom Berducci from Fox Sports, MLB Network
and Sports Illustrated.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
And I'm Joe Madden. We're gonna be around to talk
a little bit about managerial decisions and what may have
occurreded to the dugout, maybe the nineteen eighties.

Speaker 5 (20:06):

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Yeah, yeah, huh uh uh. People don't remember this man.
That was a dope movie though. On the slide. It
was like a dope movie. Yeah. Yeah, weren't they on

(20:50):
the beach. Weren't they on the beach when this this
this song came on. I think they were like driving motors,
like dirt bikes on the beach.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
See the problem that they off like take off? Well, yeah,
I kind of crossed the streams because I confused the
Lost Boys gang bangers with the the guys from Karate Kid,
the Cobra con.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
That's a good pool, you know, it's a good pool.
It's the same type of feel. Yeah, but you remember
they started flying.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
Man good songar.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
That joint hard, that joint go right there? I might
go lifted this one today. I might. I might have
to rock that will in his set when when I'm
doing the bench today.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
A way before Keeper Sutherland was doing twenty four, he
was eating somebody's Adams apple on the beach in southern California.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
There they was flying over. They was flying over the pier.
You remember there was flying over to what was it
the Malibu Pier, Santa Monica here, Yeah, there.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
You go the place at every time there's a local
sporting event in LA. When they do a national broadcast,
they show the Santa Monica appears. If it's like right
down the street from downtown, my ass, that's an hour
plus to get there in traffic. Not even close. Lee,
what is the IMDb score on The Lost Boys? We
got a so Lee's efforting that we're going to find

(22:14):
out the IMDb score. I mean, if it's if it's
if it's worse than The bee Keeper whatever crap. You
and Brady were waxing poetically about yesterday, then IMDb and
Rotten Tomatoes and all that should be shut down.

Speaker 6 (22:29):
Well, I do go by the Rotten Tomato scores, not
the uh not the IMDb.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
A lot of people do do IMDb. But here here's
The Lost Boys.

Speaker 6 (22:36):
Seventy seven percent critic, eighty five percent audience solidar.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
That is solid, that's solid. Yeah fresh, This is a
soap movie certified fresh. So lame, it's just so lame,
but yeah, it's a good movie.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
Man. It was like the mom was dating the dad.
The dad was the King Vampire. You no, you were
in the movie, weren't you.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Oh yeah, of course that was one of the stunt doubles.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
And you were you were on a stunt double. You
were younger, like you were just you know you were
a younger vampire.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
Then, like they weren't sure how to act. They were like, listen,
these guys have way too much of a tank. It
was a good gasp, right, Like when they when they
add some of those guys on set, they were like,
these guys have got way too much of a tank.
Can we get Jonas in here? He looks like a
sheet of notebook paper, Like it'll make this work?

Speaker 2 (23:25):
And so yeah, probably you got to bring in some
real vampires, you know, with the actors, otherwise they don't
cap like you know how many vampires were sitting at
home on their vampire couches watching their vampire TV's, Like dang,
they really captured the essence of who we are. Yeah, oh,
there's Jonas right.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Here if you wanted that.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
Now I know why they in the background right there.
Yeah there is.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
And let's just say this, so if any of you
out there are big fans of the movie The Twilight,
you're a candy ass. You need to get on the
real talk and start watching The Lost Boys. If you
want to know who daddy is to Twilight, all right,
if you want to know who yo daddy is, you
watch The Lost Boys. Daddy that's a real vampire movie.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
What you mean, are we done yet?

Speaker 1 (24:13):
We've done? You just didn't read like your fact daddy.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
We'll be done when we say we done.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
You ain't got a job.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
All you do you don't do us just like your daddy.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Um So, coming up here a little over fifteen minutes
from now from the tiraq dot com studios, we are
going to tell you something in sports may have turned
out to be too good to be true. We will
get into the details on that for you again a
little over fifteen minutes from now. Listen, Trey Lance. Yeah,

(24:54):
he's the next in line of a long line of quarterbacks.
Twenty twenty one draft cl So he did waiting. Yeah,
fifth year option was declined by the Cowboys, not a surprise.
Everyone kind of expected that because the Cowboys would have
had to pay him about twenty four million dollars had
they picked it up. And he hasn't really played and
they've got Dak Prescott, so why would they go that direction?
But he now joins Mac Jones, Zach Wilson justin fields.

(25:22):
And what's wild to think about because there's a lot
of you know, all these quarterbacks that just got drafted
and there are some similarities to that draft class in
this draft class in the sense that first three picks
of the draft were quarterbacks, much like it was last
in twenty twenty one. And yet all of those guys
have been traded away for late round draft picks and

(25:44):
fifth year options have not been picked up. And I
look at it and I go, damn. So like all
that time we spent breaking down celebrating the moves quarterbacks
of the future, what a brutal business that those guys
in Trailer Lance's case less than three years later. But
those guys three years later are elsewhere, and their future

(26:07):
is kind of in peril because we have no idea
whether or not they're going to actually get another shot
to really be the guy. Ever again, it's like you're
getting one audition, you bomb the audition and it may
not even be your fault, and the book is written
on your career. That sucks. Man.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
You know, there's a wasteland of us around the entire country.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Man us you went to three provols talking.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
About Yeah, but I was I was supposed to be
a Hall of Famer man, And and you go and
you deal and listen. Part of that is is on
you as a player. Like again, I always say there's
the in spite of type of guys like Barry Sanders
wasn't in spite of you know, God, like you think

(26:53):
of guys like that, Like I'm sure there's a few
more names out there that were in spite of guys.
But for the most part, you gotta have a quarterback.
You gotta have a quarterback. And so if you fall
on this list and you're a quarterback, that's a strike
one against you, like in that wasteland like dang, you

(27:14):
were a quarterback. That means you could have in a
lot of ways dictated you know, some outcomes. But one
thing that I'll say, dysfunction is undefeated. It's undefeated. And listen,
Trey Lance was not a product of dysfunction. Trey Lance

(27:35):
was actually a product of of I don't know. He's
one of those rare cases where I guess circumstance, Circumstances
got a whole got in the way of things for him.
Mister irrelevant turns into super relevant. And who could have
saw that coming. Maybe Kyle Shanahan knew that that's what

(27:57):
he had in brock Purty. I don't know, but it
just circumstances did not play in his favor. It wasn't dysfunction,
but for Zach Wilson and who what was the other name?

Speaker 1 (28:08):
He said, Justin Fields.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
That's that's I mean, Justin mac Jones and Justin Fields
are the most that's that's they're they're victims. Those are victims,
you know, And and that's sad because the circumstances that
surrounded them did not call for success.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
And also on the Trey Lance front, like that's why
I've always been I've always kind of defended Trey Lance
from this standpoint. He never really got an opportunity like
he like the hurt like his his rookie season, he
was put in two games, he started two games because
Jimmy Garoppolo got hurt.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
And he wasn't bad, no, but he got hurt.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
And then the next year he's the starter. Jimmy Garoppolo,
you know, comes back and it's just going to be
the backup to Trey Lance. The first game of the season,
they're playing in a monsoon at Soldier Field in Chicago,
and you've talked about how bad the surface is there
to begin with, there was literally Week one a monsoon

(29:09):
and the Bears beat the forty nine ers ironically against
Justin Fields. But nobody played well in that game. There
was a monsoon, like nobody could anticipate what was going
to happen. Everybody was fumbling the ball. There were drops everywhere.
And then game two at home, he breaks his leg.
Jimmy Garoppolo comes in and the rest is history. Like,
that's not necessarily Trey Lance's fault, but you can't.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
Break your leg.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
I know what's crazy. Like, the craziest thing is when
I say that to like I say that to my kids,
like my own son's, my extended family sons that I
mentor you can't get hurt. The best ability you sit
on the show the other day. The best ability is

(29:54):
what jonas availability. It's availability, so you can't get hurt.
I'm sorry, you can't break your leg. You're not in
a position to break your leg. You get that big
ass contract. You could break your leg. If you play
like Dak Prescott, you could break your leg. You know.
But there's there's there's very few there's very few times

(30:17):
in sport, especially football, where if you're not available, if injury,
injury is the reason why somebody like, oh, the the
honor system of somebody shouldn't be able to take your
job while you're hurt. Bs bs. That happens all the time, Prescott,
it happens all the time. Yeah, And and so don't

(30:40):
get hurt. Don't don't get hurt. And if you get hurt,
then you just have to live with what happens. If
you got hurt, he got hurt at the wrong time
in his career, and and sometimes that dictates the outcome
of of how your career plays out. Sucks, you know, man,

(31:00):
That's just what it happened.

Speaker 1 (31:02):
It's wild to think in any profession, like, I don't
care what you do. If you're listening to this, if
you're on your way to work, you work in an office,
you do construction. Like imagine you got four days on
the job, for your first four days on the job,
and somebody just said no, no, we're not going to
get another chance. And the reason you perform poorly on

(31:22):
those days in the job is because there was weather
issues all like, yeah, and there was a there was
an accident on the on the job site, and.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
I remember I stepped on a nail. I stepped on
a nail. I was doing during construction. When I first
got to college to make my I was making a good,
good wage, two hourly, great wage. And I stepped on
a nail and and it went straight into my foot
and I had to get the technic shots all this stuff.
I couldn't really walk real well. And they replaced me.

(31:56):
Oh it's over, hey, man, they were placed. Listen. They
didn't replace me the next day. They replaced me the
same day.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Yeah, they don't care. List We got a deadline here, buddy.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
They told, They told the football office. They said, yeah,
you know, good kid, good kid, but we're just you know,
we gotta go in a different direction. Viola damn. Yeah.
And that was when I decided on God, this is
a true story. I always looked at football as like

(32:32):
I wanted to make it and I wanted to be
great at playing ball, but I ultimately knew, like when
I got to college, I was looking at some of
the linemen, and I was looking at what's going on
in the weight room and what was going on when
we go on the practice field and Jonas I was like, man,
like I don't know, No, you just don't. I don't
know what this is going to work out? Like this

(32:53):
is different, and you start thinking about, like what would
you do if you don't make it play ball? And
I can remember when I started working construction when by
the time I got to the point of where I
got that nail in my foot, I had come to
the conclusion you had better make it playing football, dude, Like,

(33:14):
no no excuses, no fear ducking, no fear dodging, Because
if this is what I got to do for the
rest of my life till I die, I ain't gonna
live long. I ain't gonna live long being a being
on a construction site doing demolition, ain't gonna work, ain't
gonna ain't gonna happen, So I don't know what's gonna
WHOA like you're having this conversation with yourself. I was

(33:37):
in a chicken coop. We had to do demo on
a chicken coop.

Speaker 1 (33:40):
Oh bro, especially in the summertime.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
It's a beautiful it's a beautiful tennis court. Now I
can say I took took part in like, you know,
like two weeks I was part of I was part
of helping build that place for two weeks. I can
always say I was a part of stepping through you know, chicken.
You know, stuff off and and and breaking down walls
and pulling mesh and all this old.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
Your names in the box score, you go, yeah, like.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
Your lies the exact spot where college football Hall of
Famer got a nail through his foot right here, you know,
if they knew to tell the story. But that's when
I decided you ain't. There ain't no going back, like
straight your whole holding a bottle of rum. I burnt that.

(34:29):
I burnt that ship, Like do another profession my ass.
I started going in that weight room. I was lifting weights.
People be like, man, what was your motivation? What were you? Yeah,
get out there on the field, ball out that isn't
I got to get the helip out of this chicken coop.
And I ain't never trying to go back. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:49):
It's if you need a motivation, go do something you
don't want to do, and that'll tell you exactly what
you want to do. Sometimes that's the easiest answer. It
is two pros and a cup of Joe Fox Sports
Radio LeVar Arrington. Check out the year coming up here

something in the world of sports was too good to
be true. We've got the evidence of that right here

Speaker 2 (36:00):
It's so entertainment. Good thing.

Speaker 4 (36:01):
The guys are here to bring you in case you missed.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
It, and for that we turn it over to our
executive producer Lee.

Speaker 7 (36:10):
Lap Good more than everybody. Go morning, Jonas, Good morning
the bar, Good morning everybody, guys. In case you missed this,
That is right, guys, In case you missed it, Ryan Garci,
Hey guys, Hey Brady Hayley.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
That was not Brady. He's so trained. Hey Brady, case
you missed it.

Speaker 6 (36:33):
Though, Ryan Garcia tested positive for the ped substance austring
the day before and the day of his upset went
over Devin Haney last month. He now has ten days
request that his B sample be tested. His A sample
also screened positive for nineteen or norndosterone, but its presence
is unconfirmed at this time.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
So, in other words, the victory like was short lived.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
Well, here's what I would say, though, because this has
happened before, and it's happened before an MMA a bunch
of times to where it could be a contaminated substance.
So maybe he was taking some sort of other substance
or supplement. No, but this this really does happen. I'm
not saying this happens in this case, but this could

(37:18):
be a possibility that when you go to these places
to get your supplements, that something is mixed in the
vat they haven't cleaned it well enough, and it ends
up being contaminated and the supplement he gets is contaminated
with a supplement that is banned or a banned substance.
And that happens a lot, And there's been fighters who
have proven that it happened when they've claimed their innocence.

(37:40):
The problem with this because they've done testing on all
their supplements and they found out They've traced it back
to the lab and found out, Okay, somehow that got
in your supplement, and that's how they're would to prove it.
It's happened a bunch of times.

Speaker 2 (37:53):
Oh well, but it don't sound good, sound like sound
like heyn he's back on the back, on top. I
mean it's he still can't get out from under that
ass whip. Oh no, on top.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
And it doesn't mean that he wouldn't have still won
the fight, but it didn't.

Speaker 2 (38:12):
Win the fight. Yeah, and that fight is God.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
And when you know that, listen, he you know, bet
On himself came in three pounds overweight.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
I say, came in overweight. So you know them PDS
was up in there.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
And he basically hedged his bet. He said, yeah, I
basically give up one point five million to win twelve
million on a bet. I mean he's basically said that.
So when you factor all that in.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
He didn't do himself any favors about acting the way
he's been acting. I'll tell you that it ain't gonna
be no sympathy for him. But oh that's why he
was acting all erraticking, all off and crazy. He's on
that gas.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Yeah, do we change his name to Ryan Gassi?

Speaker 2 (38:48):
You know Ryan Gas?

Speaker 1 (38:51):
We go with that? Should we turn that into a shirt?

Speaker 2 (38:53):
So, yeah, we got pandemic p
