[Assistant] Bad looking tattoo on, I mean bad in a good way, like the Vikings wore in the show Vikings. I, I, I would have to use my veto for that. Oh come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If- if Adam's ever applying for a real job, I'm just gonna send the cl- all the clips of this show to his employer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In terms of, oh yeaah, Cronky's bad, in terms of like just sheer incompetence though, like Dan Snyder's a bad owner, but because he's a bad person as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've never been so jealous of not being part of something, uh, since doing YouTube. I saw you guys all playing flag football together. I was like, man, I want to be there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It almost happened with Steve Young in the USFL. They tried to give him a 40 million dollar contract that would be paid in an annuity and he would still be making that same, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yearly paycheck, I think it would have ended in 2020.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The year that the check's mailed a little late, like it gets to the mailbox and it's not there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why I said it's a good punishment because the viewers for the first time are really going to suffer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, your face the whole time, Scooter, was, uh. We were all just laughing and then I ran downstairs and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tom was laughing, Tree got the fire, Adam I wasn't paying attention to, and Scooter I could just tell was genuinely a little horrified.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and even, even my nuggets, you know, like Jamal Murray gets hurt before the postseason.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we're done, let's go offline. In the, uh, the Raiders, uh, new, newly built club in their stadium for an entire year. That's what we do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Raiders in-zone club, we have to stay in there for, whoever stays the longest wins, uh, Mark Davis' not billion dollars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here you go, Scooter. Cowboys were fined $100,000 and Mike McCarthy $50,000.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Viking Tattoo. Viking Tattoo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, maybe he has to paint a portrait of, of, of someone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want him to paint the portrait through the duration of next week's episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's see here. Who? Yeah. Oh. Hmm. Let me see if I can find.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's a super ripped dude that we could get a photo of him shirtless that would be like a thorn in Adam's side as a Giants fan?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's good sports here on YouTube. I think, oh yea, I did a NFC North power ranking today. I probably won't get another video up until Monday because I'm trying to enjoy a little bit of July. I'm sorry, who was number one?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The ode to Dave Gettleman. When the day turns to night,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you had the number two pick. Drafting a back eh? Who's generally out sick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's been a rough four years not sniffing the playoffs at all, but only if Evan Ingram could catch the damn bowl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, Gettleman, oh, Gettleman, what moves do you have in store? Drafting offense when we need defense, and then the team not be able to score. For this is the year Daniel Jones has to show his stuff. As for you, Dave, it's put up or shut up. So, Gettleman, Gettleman, Tony or not Tony?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's good. Somebody wants the-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The person is on, off, off your stream and your reaction and just let them know you're recording. And I think that's, you're in Denver, that's a, it's a two party state or one party state, whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First of all, what bad is going to happen in a 90 minute session? They're not going to tell you to do a high colonic or something. A what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't understand what he's saying to the Packers by holding out, right? Like, if he wants to win a Super Bowl with the Packers, don't you think he should be there working with the guys at the minicamp? Like, either that or he is just based like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is he trying to prove by not showing up? Either he doesn't like doing the workouts, but you would think, is there any other big name quarterback that's not in camp that's holding out? No, Tom Brady's in his mandatory mini camp, isn't he?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so Tom Brady is out trying to win a Super Bowl next year. Aaron Rodgers has got beef. It's like he's giving his wife the silent treatment, knowing that they're gonna get back together again afterwards. He's just being really petty to me, is, is like what he's doing, and it's just-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some of these owners, like, I mean, when they buy into the league, they take a huge risk, okay? I mean, it's one thing to buy a franchise or buy something at McDonald's that's, you know, a couple bucks, or write a five billion dollar check to get in on the NFL. People tend to forget.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In terms of defense, for sure. I don't think the NFL is constructed in the way like basketball, you know, you have three players out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like KD, um, Harden and Kyrie, they took the nets which were hot garbage and are making them into almost a slam dunk lock to win the NBA championship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I used to think the other way. I used to be like, ah, wherever you get drafted, you play until I heard Bill Curry, uh, say, you know, what's wrong with a guy in America wanting to go work in a town?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? Like, you're, you're allowed to want to, like, if you grew up into, like, I don't blame Tavares, John Tavares, for playing for the Maple Leafs. Like, he grew up as a Maple Leafs fan. Like, I don't fault the players for wanting that. Uhm, I just, I just, I just had a thought though that,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, to get LeBron to play with Brawny. Like that would be just so fitting for that to happen. 4D chess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't care about anything. When we're like, we need to convert this fourth and ten, we're down seven points. I don't care what your mental state is, Daniel Jones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, well, I, you know, I think we can talk about that a little bit more, but my big thing with this whole trade brings up something even bigger than the actual trade, which is philosophical discussion for us in the chat to determine what is better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taking an established player or a draft pick?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is my, that has been on my mind for a while here. Like what would you rather have? What would you, what would you rather have your team do? Is take a high, like first or second round pick or take a proven talent? To me, it depends on the team. It depends on the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I'm just saying, I would love to have a wing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think anything is off limits or anything is on limits, no cussing, uh, just, if, how about, what happens if you decline to answer the question though? Like if you, then I guess you have to do the dare? Is that how that works?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know what Tom's punishment is going to be. He's going to have to do a rap song.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My thing is, is like, I wanna hear Tom rap, like, really badly, cause he claims that he can rap, and, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you hear the, can you hear the beat through the speaker?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I don't know why my audio, I guess that's tough for, okay, but. That's okay, we'll set it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's true. It takes all, why does it take all day to buy a car? It literally takes like, like you could walk in, decide to buy a car and it'll take 10 years before you're out of there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A wrap? Yes, the 3 minute wrap, plus using Head & Shoulders for a month, plus product placement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beef jerky in there. So you guys are saying I click it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oooooh! Woah! Scooter by the mansion!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which house has the best internet on the block? I'll take it sir.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whose body is that? I was gonna say you put this up on Mother's Day. Yep. To turn on your mom. To turn on your mom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's funny about this is, uh, John Elway is not the Broncos' GM anymore, so he really...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But also, Broncos fans, even if Aaron Rodgers is playing for the Broncos,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're always still, just a little part of us is always thinking about John Elway. No matter who our quarterback is, we're always dreaming just a little.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you don't, you get in trouble. You get in trouble. Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you're saying the Raiders, that's a game that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You think the giant should win, but you're mostly scared they're gonna choke. Yes. In horrific fashion to the raiders. Got it. That's fair. That's fair.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're gonna be like, aww, you just got the staph infection.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, week one is Daniel Jones versus either Aaron Rodgers but probably Drew Locke. So it's Daniel Jones who Giants fans don't know if he's the future versus Drew Locke and Broncos fans don't know if he's the future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both of us are gonna walk away from that game, Adam, like, oh shoot, we have a long season ahead of us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because if I'm going to give the Giants credit for one thing, I think their defense started to come together. I think Joe Judge has something going on that side of the ball. They played against Tampa really well last year in prime time. They gave Tom Brady more


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think the Giants defense might be good. I'm scared Drew Locke will look really bad against him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or, I'm scared for an even worse scenario, where it's week one, and week one is the hardest week to read any team because crazy things happen, and I'm scared Drew Locke and Daniel Jones are both gonna go off. 400 yards passing from both guys, just an air attack, Adam and I are gonna be pumped, like, oh, our team's coming together!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then it's all gonna be a facade and then we're gonna get shot up here and then slowly through the course of the season, we're gonna come to terms with reality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Loser has to get a tattoo of the opposing team's logo on their face.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Week one, Broncos win that game 35 to 3. Uhm, Daniel Jones rushes for


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 283 yards but fails to score a touchdown every time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aaron Rodgers, I would just refer to my penis as the gold package.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think might have happened last year without the preseason. Uh, I felt like we saw a bunch more injuries in September.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if it had anything to do with the preseason, but I think there might be something for at least having two games for starters to kind of just get their bodies right and their bodies used to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I think four games was overkill because for the most part there were maybe some guys on team rosters who earned their roster spot in that last game. But I feel like most coaching staffs know which guys they're going to keep by that third game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yea, adding, adding the 17th game, I hate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought I would hate the wild card thing, but honestly it, uh, I enjoyed the extra football when it was there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though it felt like more work. That's the only way I look at this now. It's like an extra game of the season. I'm like, that's more work for me. Extra playoff game. That's more work for me. So, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm selfish with it. I'm like, I just want to work less. I don't want the Super Bowl to be middle of February, ruining when they're going to start XFL football.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're pushing the XFL back, and that's a real shame.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I pulled the schedule up from my friends over at DNVR Broncos here in Denver. Uh, you don't spell it that way, so don't get tricked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We got, uh, Broncos have the luxury of a great, easy start to the season. We get the Giants, the Jags, and the Jets. That's two rookie quarterbacks versus a guy who plays like a rookie as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, I think like if the Broncos are gonna be good, they need to start the season with at least...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least the ability to win two games, because Vic Fangio has yet to get a win in the month of September, so I would like to see that change this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody's rooting for Gardner. Like, he's the guy I was really hoping the Broncos would make a play for, that I thought was realistic. Like, Deshaun Watson was a dream, and then that got messy. Aaron Rodgers was a dream.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and honestly, this was a point I brought up in a video yesterday that I thought was a good point. Like, having Tebow on your roster is a good thing. Because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's going to take all the attention away. So Trevor Lawrence could play like garbage and nobody's going to notice if Tebow was in the game. If Tebow catches one pass, everybody's going to be talking about Tebow in the locker room. Trevor Lawrence is going to get a free pass because Tebow is going to suck all of the attention like a magnet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He takes a lot of pressure off of Lawrence. The real question here, we're all talking about Tebow Kenny Ketch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if Tebo's just an amazing blocking tight end? Can Tim Tebo block? Have we, has anybody brought that up?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just throwing it out there. The Broncos, the Broncos almost signed him, uhm, but the 49ers wouldn't pay, uh, the, uh, much, enough of the salary that Elway wanted at the time. I would have loved to have Kaepernick. Would I want Colin Kaepernick now from a pure football perspective? Probably not, but like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's just because like Tebow, he hasn't played for a long time. You could argue maybe Colin would be better than Drew Locke, but at this point,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, like, out of all the positions, if you're out of the game, and I'm not saying it's fair to Kaepernick, but being out of the game as a quarterback for as long as he has been, that's really hard to pick back up. Uhm, but, that's, it's such like a,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right away when the Broncos needed quarterback. Like if you, if there's one year after...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He got screwed out of the league? Yes, give me him because I think he's ready to play. Now it's been, it's like what, 40 years now? My big concern would be just not playing that position, the quarterback position.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Four years. Well, I don't think he'd be better than Teddy Bridgewater. Like, Teddy's a good quarterback. He didn't play great for the Panthers. We learned he doesn't like the way they practice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but, uh, like, I think Teddy on a good team is a very good quarterback, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll lose to Fitzmagic, we'll definitely beat the Cowboys, then we'll lose to the Eagles, and that's gonna hurt the Cowboys even more somehow. Then we get a bi-week. Here's where I'm worried, like, we have...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless we get Aaron Rodgers, then we go 14 and 2.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I see Dallas having the 11th easiest schedule here. What the heck was I looking at then?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The all time passing yards record.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let it marry. Okay. Here's Barry Sanders' stats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Barry Sanders is the greatest athlete who has ever lived based on the fact that he looks good on the line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Week 13, Broncos at Chiefs. Okay, okay. Now you're like, oh wait, the Broncos haven't beat the Chiefs in like four straight seasons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, guess what? Aaron Rodgers is the Denver Broncos quarterback. He beats the Chiefs for the first time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In four years for the Broncos, the Broncos at that point are 13 and 0.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By week 18, when the Broncos play the Chiefs again, he doesn't even have to play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That will change because we will get flexed back into Monday night when Aaron Rogers joins our team!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's true. Check it out. That's true. Mister Brandon Perna.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can find me at That's Good Sports. Don't know, I'm doing some sort of video tomorrow about NFL news.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hopefully something good happens because my script right now is pretty... I'm reaching. I am reaching for a lot of news stories. Did you get any donos buddy? I got...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you guys are telling me to push the clip first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could be better, if I didn't look like an... IDIOT!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I, I, I lost, like Tom, the week before, the Patreon super chats. I mean, just the super chats. And I have, I had to buy this Patrick Mahomes headpiece.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which, there, I didn't even know existed. Uh, I didn't even know how to search for it, but I was just like, Mahomes, hair, head, hat. Amazon. Boom. 20 of them pop up. I'm like, oh shoot, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, so yeaah, here I am, Patrick Mahomes, biggest, uh, support, I mean, I am Mahomes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many, how many fouls did Anthony Davis get that were not worthy of being called?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why does Tom get to drink? And how come I wasn't notified to have some whiskey here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What, what kind of guy does, what does bat barn seem like?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's weird behavior. He is like a guru.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Honestly, I'm, I'm back at the point where I'm ready for, uh, Tim Tebow season at quarterback. Uh, I think I could, I would accept that as a Broncos fan. Um, Tebow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interestingly, once lost three straight games to get into the playoffs. So if the NFL can figure out how to get more teams who lose three straight and then into the playoffs and then beat the Steelers, beat the Steelers like he did,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That would be an interesting scenario I'm open to. I just put a video up today about Tim Tebow. Another guy getting a ton of hate. I feel like for no real reason. He's getting a chance to play tight end. A third string tight end maybe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you can have somebody, some guy on your roster that you don't even have to play and he's going to get people to the game, like to me, that's a genius move by the Jacksonville. Like, hey, people love him, especially here in Jacksonville. Maybe we can get him a pass, a game, two passes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, he's three years older than Taysom Hill and I think he can actually be used like Taysom Hill right now. And to Dez Bryant's defense, to Dez Bryant's defense, a third of his catches for the Ravens last year, one third of his catches were touchdowns. So I get, he was, he had six catches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two TDs, so maybe Dez Bryant, uh, one of the disgruntled players who actually has something to be upset about because I think...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I think today I talked about this in the episode, it's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Restructured Matt Ryan, but his cap hit for next season is now $48 million.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, if they cut him, it's like 40 million in dead money. So, and they also don't have enough money to pay their rookies they just drafted. And that's like the real reason they have to move Julio is because they don't have enough money set aside to pay the cheapest players on the roster. So, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To me, Thomas is the real winner here because he got to get out of town when the work was about to get really, really hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the Texan stabbed Tyrod Taylor in the lungs with a needle, Jack Easterbee's gonna try to heal him with holy water, and it's going to be very bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Jags have the most cap space right now. I want to just go to Jacksonville, Julio.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The titans don't have a lot of cap space, the packers don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Patriots, Chargers, Colts. Those are the top three with cap space of teams that he's been linked to. So, I'd bet on those three based on the fact that they can afford him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thirteen touchdowns in three games by...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You should go watch my Tim Tebow episode that I put up today where I defend Tim Tebow when nobody else had the balls to do it themselves. Wow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I stood up for a man who needs nobody to stand up for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, just wondering. That's fair. That's fair. That's fair. That's fair. That's fair. And then the most rewarding, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Little blue steel right there. Hmm. If you didn't have a beard, I would, uh, I would, I would probably do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that's fair. I think that's fair. Maybe even a little purple. But I think you dressing up as Guy Fieri would be perfect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that's why the frosting is gonna hurt. You might have to do some tutorials there, buddy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm actually working on why these college football programs are so bad now, and I might need you, Scooter, to tell me why Florida is so bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look at all these programs. Texas is bad. Florida State is a joke. Miami's trash. LSU is trash. Florida's trash. Uh, USC is trash. Nebraska trash. All these teams were great 15 years ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, probably in a week, so, I'll hook you up. You know, you only need a minute.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I also cry because he's engaged, and it's not to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Evan McPherson, uh, he's the top kicker coming out of this year's draft. And I think, uh, listen, the 49ers didn't trade up to get no chump. So, uh, I think they get the best kicker coming out of college. Uh, but honestly, Justin Fields. Yeah. I think that that's going to be the guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so uhm, you know, it's a love-hate relationship, and it's a pun too. So when the Packers drafted Jordan Love, uh, last year, you know, if there was any video that I thought would hit a million firsts, it wasn't gonna be the two-minute reaction, uh, to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What fans get really hung up on is the fact that like, oh my god, if we drafted...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, Patrick Queen's not supposed to be on Scotty Miller, so that's one. Uh, and then two, if Aaron Rodgers balls out again, the Packers aren't gonna move on from him, and they still have Jordan Love waiting in the wings. If Jordan Love, like, goes God mode, and Rodgers, like, falls off, then guess what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have a great quarterback sitting behind him. So like, I don't know why this is a constant, constant media story that comes upon my feet at least once a week. And I'm just so, so tired of it. But you see like Jordan Love like throw in practice once and he missed the hoop and it's like, well,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Packers don't know what they're doing and it's just, it's very frustrating. Like, you look at the Bears. Like, what the hell are the Bears doing? They have no quarterback right now. Like, we're in the best spot possible. Like, we have too many quarterbacks on the roster. Like, I don't think it's a problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what's a great show? The Leftovers. Only three seasons. Great show though on HBO. Check it out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fine aroma just, mm, to inhale it is just ecstasy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, no, like I'm cool with rocking with the current MVP of the league, you know, in case the, the rookie doesn't know how to play just yet. Like no, I'm, I'm okay. Yeah, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, no, I had it, uh, I absolutely agree with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of my students, since I'm doing online teaching, they took Conor McGregor getting knocked out and photoshopped Aaron Rodgers' face on it after the NFC Championship game, and that has been their profile picture that I stare at every single day since January.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I, I, I teach 17 and 18 year olds, so I feel like I, there's no way on God's green earth I can say that this is safe, so I'm just gonna say not safe and please never talk to me again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, in this past mock from last week and also in this one, I think that they just stay and pick pits. Uhm, I think again, like if they're able to trade to like a QB needy team and just get like a ridiculous haul, that works out for them too, because like Perna said, like they need a defense. I mean, they already have a bunch of weapons on their offense, but I mean, I think-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think you, you know, if you get a running back in like the second round, like you're, you're, you're cooking with gas. So I think, um, you pick pits unless you are blown away by an offer and that's the only way I can see you trading out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, then I take the three first round. I mean, it depends on where they are, you know, like it depends on what team it is. Like if it's, I don't know, like if it's the Steelers, let's just say, like who decide to do it, like they're usually are picking leader. So then I would say no, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I, I think if you have a team that's like within the top 15, who's willing to throw three first round picks to you, hell yeah, hell yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But didn't you just say that there's no one safe? Cause like again, like you, we were talking about Kyle Pitts, but if like Kyle Pitts like got forbidden, like gets injured like his first season, then like, would you rather have the three firsts or that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think with the draft, I feel like it's, you get as many opportunities to try and hit on a player. Cause like every single team has like scouting departments, you know, they do all the research and what have you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I feel like at times, it's a crapshoot, right? In which you're just like, I hope this works out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like, if we, if everyone knew where they were gonna be drafted, I mean like Richard Sherman would be drafted in the first, Aaron Jones would be drafted in the first, Tom Brady would be drafted in the first. So I think it's a matter of like, if you have a, I don't understand what you're saying, Five, but I feel like if you have a ton of picks, it just increases the potential slash possibility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, the, yeah, five. Like that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about like, you get three first round picks for your one first round pick. I think that that, for me, I think that that makes a lot of sense. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, who's 2500 yards still? I mean, like, through toys like 26 TDs, I think it was like 11 picks or something like that. But, I mean, the guy can still play, and if he has weapons around him, like, that's why I'm saying, like, I think they're in a win-win situation. Either some team, like, overspends, like, the Broncos or something, and it's like, here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's everything. And they're like, cool. And I get to pick within the top 10. Or they get Kyle Pitts and their offenses even better. You know, and that's an amazing target for an aging QB.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's lower on the list, but I think he's top 10.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then I think you go, after that though, I think you go Mack Jones and then maybe Trey Lance. Like that's how I think they're projecting it. But I mean, Mack Jones is the one season, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe someone trades up into the end of the first, maybe like pull a Teddy Bridgewater and like grab him like with a 30 second pick or something, but I would say day two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's honestly like that's, I, I do want to do a video about it one day, but like that is one of my favorite like what if scenarios. You take all these quarterbacks who like burnt out or fizzled out, like how many of them burnt out because they were on terrible teams, right? Like if they were put in a situation where they like stand behind somebody or like behind a well coached team, like RG3.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if like Washington doesn't send them out there to die? You know what I mean? Those are like really interesting scenarios to me because it goes to show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like, if you have an Aaron Rodgers, right? If Aaron Rodgers goes one and goes to the 49ers, you know, and Alex Smith sits behind Brett Favre, you know, what do those careers look like? I think it's, that's always fascinating and why I always advocate for sitting, because at least they have like the best opportunity to succeed and aren't thrown right into the fire. And you turn to Andrew Luck, who gets the crap beaten out of him behind no offensive line for years. You know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, he might suck! Yeah, he might suck, but like, it's like a jo- like, so Josh Rosen, for example, right? So like, he's the most recent one. And I'm not saying Josh Rosen is good by any stretch of the imagination, but what I'm saying is like, he went to the Cardinals who gave him, we're like, alright, we're done with you, then he went to the Dolphins for a hot second, then we're done with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I'm wondering like if you sat him for like two to three years and like sat him behind a good quarterback or a well coached team, does he turn into a different player? And I think that's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like, I don't follow baseball at all, but like, I heard about that, and then I saw the whole thing with the Mets guy leaning into the pitch, and like, it just seemed asinine to me that like, you could challenge if he got hit by it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Brandon Perna's hatred for Tom Brady is honestly something that I marvel at. And to see him stewing in a Tom Brady jersey will just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think your fans also vote and you are incredibly, incredibly explicit in your criticism as to why you would not like to see this person on the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Somebody from, uh, my Patreon said, never stop messing up the intro. Oh, it's great. It's fantastic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw that Dwayne posted that he is, was not missing his tooth on Instagram.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, he said, well he said he still has all of his teeth. So maybe it was just part of a tooth. Maybe that's what he was saying, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like there's some research that still needs to be done in this whole situation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't the Steelers work out Paxton Lynch at some point? It was there last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know like the backstory there, uh, but she...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She started a fire at his house, his mansion in Atlanta.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, I think she just got probation for it. Didn't ruin his career per se, but that was a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, one day we'll have to break down the differences between the nuance brought to the Wildflower character by Scooter and by Tom. I think there are some, some artistic choices here that are happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, first thing I saw today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want a one word answer from each of you. Starting with Adam, then going to Scooter, then urinating tree, then Tom. Impressed or not impressed? Adam, go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Adam and Tom are onto something here. I dug a little bit into the story, apparently.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yes, one part of Tom Brady's mind is like, I can sell this as a marketing product on TB12. If I win another Super Bowl without an MCL, then I'm gonna make, uh, buku bucks. I'll use my million dollar PPP loan and, uh, not get the surgery. And then...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remembered a little fact that I point out on the end of my podcast. And that's John Elway played his entire career without an ACL. So until Tom Brady does that, I refuse to be impressed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Second. Stat. I got here. If anybody knows the answer, chime in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which NFL quarterback is the all time leader with wild card wins?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, good try, wild scooter. Good try.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The answer is Joe Flacco. With five wild card wins!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you guys' guests, Merino, Favre, Breeze, Rivers, Rogers, and Russell Wilson all have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the Packers aren't gonna trade him until like a few games into the season, so it's gonna take a little bit for him to get going, then he's gonna barely sneak him in there, and then he's gonna take him all the way to the Super Bowl. Okay, here's a question for Tom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] AJ Hawk spent the week with Aaron Rodgers. Great segue here, guys. Uh, AJ Hawk says he believes Rodgers is coming back to the Packers, that he's gonna retire a Packer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Eh, Tom, why should we trust AJ Hawk? Why is he just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why would he not just be saying this because there's nothing to talk about right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, here's a guy. Can you grow a solid beard, Adam?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Players coming in from 10 to 6, Stefan Diggs, Miles Garrett, Jalen Ramsey, Travis Kelsey, Derrick Henry. Tell me which one of these players is underrated and why it's Derrick Henry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All these guys are great. This is, this is solid by any means. Okay, Travis Kelsey, I hate to admit it, but he's really good. I see it way too frequently as a Broncos fan. Jalen Ramsey really-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bounce back last year, had a tremendous season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Derrick Henry rushed for 2,000 yards and they put him at 6? Like, he does something that only, what, 5 or 6 other running backs have done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ever? I just feel like he should be top three. I think he's that important to the Titans. Well, if you think so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just, eh, eh, eh, don't get me wrong, spot six, that's great, but I saw him there, I think he is second or third best player in the league, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, you're thinking of when Homer Simpson stole the pig that was the mascot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the only news that's coming out about them, you're saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I honestly want another announcer who's offended by everything players do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, that's more interesting to me. Like, Joe Buck's like sorta hip now, like, people like him, he's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's in on the joke now, like I want guys who get just really upset for no reason because it's far more entertaining that way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was uh, I was technically at Super Bowl 50, uhm. You were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was supposed to get into the game, uh, I did not, and I watched it in a Binnegan's parking lot tent that I had to pay $110 alone, uh, alone with a bunch of strangers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, eating crappy Bennegan's appetizers. I did get four beers included. You could pay 100.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then I rushed back, got into the stadium after the game, only to edit a bunch of videos for Vic Lombardi, Denver's finest sports anchor. And then we went to the Broncos party afterwards, where I talked to Danny Trevathan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Saw Demarius Thomas in an all white suit, getting ready to go out and party. Uh, Wade Phillips was there. That was cool, but the best game I was at was when the Broncos that same season beat the Patriots.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Sunday night football, in the snow, overtime, CJ Anderson, game winning touchdown. It was freezing cold, like, and that was a, it was a horrible day, like my grandma fell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Broke her hip, she was in the hospital, we were in the hospital all day, and then we just went to the game, it was like, we were, I was just freezing, the whole time I was just miserable, then it looked like the Patriots were gonna win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Brock Osweiler, Brock Lobster, Brock Tober, leads the Broncos back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To a glorious victory, and that, like, that stadium was probably the most...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To climb up an entire pre-lubed pole.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What? What were Cleveland like after the Cavs won? Did they get crazy? I can't remember. Was that bad? Was that a bad celebration?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's too many old people, retired people in Phoenix.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I need to start because I think, uh, the reason people don't believe in climate change is because of people like Wildscooter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ryan M, I'm laughing at your comment. I'm not gonna post it, but I'm laughing at it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're like, we might do like a road trip to Pennsylvania, you know, like that might be nice for a couple days, maybe it re-sparks the magic. Yeah, no, it's, uh, it's also very strange for me, um, to be here. Like it's very weird. This is my first time back in three years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the amount of pictures that I've taken with people is, is insane. Like it's a very humbling experience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tom catches a ball like everyone does. Cause there's thousands of people that show up to watch practice. And like, it's, it's wild.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In terms of like Cobb for example, like he literally can like look at Cobb a certain way and Cobb's like, I know exactly what to do because they've been doing it for so long.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, no, there's death there. I mean, they could get one in like the late rounds, but I wouldn't be surprised at that. But I mean, they got Kurt Benkert right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who is like sitting and dude, he's, he's, he's a whole vibe. I love Kurt Benkert. Big Kurt Benkert fan. Love the dude. Everyone is. Like this whole city loves Kurt Benkert. Like he is like made for Green Bay, Wisconsin. So uhm, yeaah. I mean like he could like hang around and then maybe we bring in a vet, you know, if, if love struggles maybe a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It could be, and again, I've said this numerous times and I want to say like, I'm here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go! Wait, is this live on my Twitch too? Oh, I mean. Yea, it should be. It's live on my Twitch! We are live? Oh! We are out here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What up though? Listen, I'm excited to be here. This is the future. Okay, we are excited you're here. Greatness is about to occur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What the heck, chat? Are you guys trying to get this drop? Have you guys gotten this drop right now? I don't know what's going on. I keep getting timed out. Let me know. You let me know. And some of your cards as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so, if you're new, you have no idea what's going on, you're hearing about these NFTs, let's break it down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] NFTs stand for non-fungible tokens. What does that mean? It doesn't matter. All you need to know is that these are the future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of trading cards, okay. You had the Pokemon cards, right? Everyone's going ham for Pokemon cards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're just in the early wave right now. So if you want to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Educate yourself because it's coming and it's coming fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We got a request, they say, uh, we gotta get Chiseled Adonis in here. Who should be our first guest? Guys, we're trying to put this thing together, we're working to put this thing together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ideally, we have a new guest rotating every week. So let us know, who would you like to see come on the show?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I think we're gonna pivot now and I think we should all just go through and say what our team has done in free agency if we agree what they're doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, excellent. Let us know. Is this a roast or toast? Leave a comment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is an interactive show, okay. It's not just us talking. We are interacting. Roast or toast, Mitch Strabisky to the both. What do we got, Chad?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who was the backup quarterback before Trubisky? Like who was the backup?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think we all need, since we have an odd number, I think we all need to be in agreement or like come to a conclusion. Are we roasting this or are we toasting this? What's the vote at right now?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we're gonna give the first roaster toast. We are toasting Mitch Trubisky going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's next for the Roaster Toast? What do we have next on the agenda?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what? I'm going to go in with the grassy posse on this one. I'm going to have to roast this. I don't want Patrick Peterson in the NFC, okay? He's in the NFC. We got to deal with him eventually somewhere. I'm roasting this. 10 million for one year? Shout out to Patrick Peterson for acquiring the bag though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so now, I think we're, is this the final one? Roast or toast? We're doing three?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you imagine how, uh, what's the quarterback, Joe, Joe Burrow? Like Joe Burrow is like, bruh, what? I get here and now the best receiver the year after I get here is leaving. We're off to a great start.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are we roasting or are we toasting A.J. Tree? What are we doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did we, uhm, get that good sports? Did we get your roast or toes? What are you feeling?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] AJ Green, roasting or toasting, that good sports, what are we doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we got two rows, one toast from five points, change of scenery. Tom, what are we doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, well it doesn't even matter what I say because the roasts have it right now. I would have joined with five points though, the freedom. Let that, let that boy go home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the roast, we are roasting the retirement home. That is the Arizona Cardinals. Wise words of urinating tree. I can sort of get behind that only because Emmett Smith.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Cameron Newton's career, he will be playing with some weapons. Okay, he spent his whole career in Carolina.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kinda hard cause it's not apple to apple, like I gifted some.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know that I ever bought bubbleyup, like I just feel like it just shows up in random places at my house, like hardened after four years. I found it behind the couch or something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe what we would like to see happen, maybe what we will never know will happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] NFL free agency, Green Bay Packers, to the people who don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's stay on that. Let's stay on that. What are your thoughts on this potentially being the last season for Aaron Rodgers?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is there any player specifically by name you want to see in the Packers uniform?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why not? Here we go. GM Tom Packers fans in the chat. Let us know. Would you hire Tom to be GM?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, Mitchell Swartz. Let's move on. That's good sports. We're staying in the AFC. Broncos. I don't


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yo, you gotta let me know what the Broncos have been doing, cause I have not been reading up on anything with the Broncos. What, is Drew Lock still listening to hip hop music? What's, what's happening over there? Take us through the signings, the people who've left, what's happening?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Broncos fans, there you have it straight from the source. That good sports. Gardner-Menshu for the win. We're moving on to five points. We're moving on to the NFC East.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Season starts right now with the roster you have. What's the record going to be for the Giants? Are they making the playoffs?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The GM, you can sign one person. Who would it be? Who is dramatically improving the Giants by this player signing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, you already know, okay, it's coming to Texas, the Dallas Cowboys, we're staying in the NFC East, I'm a Cowboys fan, look at the star, you see the star, you see it, you see it. What have we done, what are we doing, where are we going, what are our needs, what are we, let's start.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's fine. That is fine. You already know, chat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a good deal. Why? Because when these new quarterbacks start signing their deals, they will be for way more money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a dope, that's an upgrade for me. Do some research if you disagree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly, and I think it's going to be one of those injuries where it comes back stronger. You know, like, it'll be harder, harder to break a second time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, the time we do, do something in free agency, uh, we overpay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So a lot of times we literally do nothing in free agency and this year it's looking like more of the same. Our needs are apparent. Cornerback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Defense was hot garbage last year. Offense the same, but that's to be expected when QB1 goes down. We need depth on the O line. And I think we'll get some of that in the draft.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unfortunately, we've let people go like Blake Bell. Third string tight end. Pushed to second string tight end when there was an injury to Blake Jarwin. He's gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Brent Urban. We just signed Brent Urban today. Uh, I think he's from the Bears. Apparently the Bears loved him. Quality rotational piece. That'll be great for our defense. Building that lineup again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yesterday we signed Tai Nasiki. I think that's how you pronounce it. No idea. Line depth. Crucial. What scares me the most is that we have released


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cheeto, quality cornerback, we just couldn't keep him. We don't have the cap space to keep Cheeto. So he went off, he's gone, but we did retain our slot cornerback, Jordan Lewis, who I think will be one of the best slot cornerbacks in the league this year. Now, what do we need?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because we need someone, not since Roy Williams has the Cowboys had an enforcer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hear your argument, right? I hear that. Defense wins championships. Why didn't the defense win the championships when Jameis Winston was the quarterback?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now they have Finch Magic. Now Washington, no, no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just name me five players on Washington. Five players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who has a better roster, talent-wise? Not execution, talent-wise. Cowboys or Washington? In the chat? Let's just say it. Let's just say it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't trust your check. You have a biased audience! And so do you guys! What the?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, let's do this! I think this is good, this is good. So every...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every, uh, session we do like this, we should have a question that we all tweet out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, well let's use the hashtag clickbaitsports. Get it going like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, where is this tweet? Oh, I'll post it in all your chats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first real episode of Clickbait Sports. We will get better. We will learn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is just the beginning, okay. We're gonna see what we can do. We're gonna see how we can make this more professional as we go along. More professional.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, oh, let's do this too as a sign off. Everyone, let's go around and say, what are we working on next? What video are we working on next? Where can they find us? Uh, let's just start. Five points.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's good sports. Now that your idea has been stolen, what are you working on?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's your channel? Where can people find you? When can they expect this next video?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tree. What? What's coming up next?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So for those unfamiliar, Tom also does videos similarly to me, where he will play a lot of different teams, not just one team. So definitely check out that content. All 32 teams, yeaah. Yeaah, so he makes videos for all teams. Uh, I'm Scooter McGruder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a ton of March Madness videos on the way, right? The tournament's starting. I'll be doing all the rounds for that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When everything finally settles, I'll be making an NFL free agency video. And depending on my voice and how things go, we're going to be doing a WandaVision reaction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And potentially a Snyder Cut reaction. We'll see. We'll see how much time that takes. You can find me on YouTube at Scooter Magruder. And actually, directly following this, I will be streaming on my Twitch. Wow. Right now, twitch.tv slash Scooter Magruder. We're going to continue going, doing some Little Nightmares gameplay. If you want to join in, happy to have you. But guys! We did it! We did it!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before I end the broadcast? Let us know, uh, how did we do? Chat on a scale of 10, rank us. Where are we? What was this episode? I give it about like an 8.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll see you guys on Twitch who are still here, and until next, what is it, what's today?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Peace out boys. Peace out. And as always, good luck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will say that Yanis right now is better than LeBron, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] LeBron to me, uh, getting a little long in the tooth as a certain old guy I am, uh, I understand what it's like to get old and just be decrepit and your back or your side just hurt for no reason. Like you just sleep wrong and you wake up and you're like, oh, what the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What the fuck is going on with my shoulder? But no, Yanis is the best player in the NBA and that is not recency bias. He's complete, he can score, he can pass, he can play defense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is a monster. He is unguardable. That's another thing. And that's the way LeBron was in his peak. Uh, Yanis is only 26 years old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, no, Yanis skipped college. He did not go to college. He was drafted straight out of Greece. Yes, he did go to college, Michael Jordan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he played three years and he won a national championship. Well, Michael Jordan's rise to his greatness was very similar to Giannis' rise to now the greatest player in the NBA has ever seen because he has one championship and that's it. That's all he needed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, so, uh, I think, honestly, Yanis will be the greatest person ever to live. To live.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, here's the thing, like, there are so many, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Idiots out there. Let's just call them idiots that buy into, uh, stupid things. I want to show you guys this clip, right? And then I want to show you the guys the comments.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Underneath it. And this will absolutely blow your mind. Okay, hold on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a clip of Ichiro Suzuki here, hold on. You guys ready? Yeah, I'm ready.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's, yeaah, I was there too. So, uh, that's just how, uhm, life works, uh, by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, how many Stuns fans were actually in the arena?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So one thing I want to ask the group, uh, what is the loudest, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Expunging big words out of my mouth. No, I'm just saying, what is the loudest experience? Bengal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is the loudest in your memory that you've ever heard?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mine was actually at a soccer game. I saw the U.S. play Portugal at RFK Stadium and the U.S. scored a goal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was literally like I was screaming out of the top of my lungs, but it was worthless because everyone else was screaming and I thought that my ear drones were going to pop. It was that loud. It was a record crowd for RFKers, like 59,000 people. And, uh, yeah, I, I felt my insides, um, shake. Vibrate. Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did more Hail Marys that year than a criminal and confession, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a lot of time, by the way. Just FYI.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is in, uh, like, he's in the Yellowstone, he's in Yellowstone. Yeaah, he's in Jellystone, and he's having a, a Picnic basket.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh wow. Someone's really going hard at Perna right there. I hope you're having a wonderful time, Scooter. And, uh, you're having a great time looking at cacti and things like that. Let's give Scooter the back location.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, when they went with the peripherals and all that, it got, it got a little crazy, like cause you'd have this fake board that you would like stand on and try to do Tony hogs. But then now it's come back to where it should be, which is just doing crazy types of sequential tricks where you're just rail sliding all around the board, but it's good stuff. Good stuff. Oh yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, personally, I like the track and field. I usually pay attention to that the most.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I just like the hurdles because I know that if I ever tried to run the hurdles, it would be very comical. It'd be like, you know how in the comics when someone steps on a rake and it hits them in the face? That would be me trying to run the hurdles. Like I would try to jump over and then just, you know, probably, um, uh, manscape myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I always watch the Olympic. First of all, Bingle, I would, I would, uh, back you up on that Oscar Pistorius. He was a real winner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jason Witten, to me, is my most hated player. Like, whenever the Cowboys needed a first down, and it could be like third and 18, he would get exactly 19 yards, and I'd be like, son of a bi- on a bubble script, like some type of underneath route, I'd be like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta cover Jason Witten, him and Cole Beasley too. It's like, can you not just hit Cole Beasley at the line? Okay. Just shove him down, knock him off his route, but then he'd always get open and catch a first down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm having cowboys, uh, trauma. Flashbacks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good thing Scooter's not here to dunk on me. What do you do in the Kraken, Adam?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, tree mercil- mercifully made it through his segment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why I actually put together notes. So the NHL held an expansion draft


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yesterday or last night, and uh, the big understory here is that ESPN is taking over the NHL's broadcasting rights and this is like their first event since the 90s when Gary Thorne was calling games and they used to have the little puck tracker on there, you guys remember that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So everyone knew who was getting picked ahead of time. And so like, uh, uh, just a worthless surprise party where everyone has found out that the party's happening and everyone sort of half-heartedly jumps out and goes, surprise. They were announcing picks that everyone knew.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Would you just shut up and let me watch, let me take in the movie by myself, okay? They're trying not to spoil it, but they spoil it for you. Yes, yeah, because they want to show you that they know, right? They're like, now why would he do that right there? And you're just like, because I don't fucking know, I'm watching the movie, right? I'll watch it again if it was good enough for me to watch it. So, you notice he-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why aren't the pigeons going in the air in a beautiful mind when the little girl is running around, hmm? You didn't notice that, did you? Spoilers. Anyways, uhm, yeaah. Spoiler alert.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Gary, here are the shit show things that happened. Gary Betman called it, so the arena in Seattle is called Climate Pledge Arena. Gary Betman called it Climate Change Arena.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, it's, it's a, it's an apparition in the middle of the Seattle desert out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You walk in and just all types of carbon monoxide is in there and you just get dizzy and you're just like, oh, climate change arena. It's terrible. Uh, someone called the Carolina Hurricanes the Carolina Panthers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then subsequently both Twitters changed their logos. The Panthers changed theirs to the Carolina, uh, Hurricanes logo, but in the Panthers colors. And then the Hurricanes changed their logo to the Panthers, but that sketched out drawing of the Panthers as their logo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, uh, Gary Payton, so this was my favorite part, uh, Gary Payton and Sean Kemp ex-Seattle Sonics players were asked to introduce the pick from the Colorado Avalanche, and clearly,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Sean Kemp had not researched how to pronounce, uh, the young man's name, which is fine because-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have horrendous names like Canta Niemie or, and, uh, Pear Juice or Thomas Placanets, which is not spelled that way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For me, as I am, I have mispronounced things horribly, uh, on my channel, and I don't claim to be a pronunciation expert, but that was pretty bad. You also had Marshawn Lynch announcing a player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, he was just like, whoever this guy is. I was disappointed that he said he wasn't there, so he won't get fined. Uh, that was a little...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that we have, uh, did not, uh, control themselves. They're just like Adam Schefter every time a little piece of information about, uh, Aaron Rodgers comes across his desk. He was like, tweet now! And this guy, Frank Cervelli, basically leaked all the pics by one o'clock. Now, Tree, were there any trades today?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think even in Seattle, I don't think they have enough weed in Seattle to pull that off. Like, they would need to get high as hell. And then uhm. I think that's like a great way to just launder a ton of money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's funny is Gordie Howe, who a lot of people argue was better than Wayne Gretzky, uh, that's, that's the ultimate debate is, you know, Gordie Howe being the goat over Gretzky, which to me is not, not really an argument.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, Gordie Howe played into his 60's and if you think LeBron James is just waiting to play with Brawny James, Gordie Howe played with his kids out there. He had like two of his sons and he played for what, the Hartford Whalers or something like that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get, uh, Gretzky to come back. Now, Bengal, I want to ask you, who is your favorite hockey player?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you name one active hockey player?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seattle's uniforms are kind of fire. I actually want, uh, a Kraken jersey. I want, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tom, you already took off your, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was a lot like football, except there's no hitting at all. It's just, but it's basically the same game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like this question here, this super chat from the Ramers line, by the way, and this is good because Bengal's here. Thoughts on OU in Texas might join, that they might join the SEC, and you as a Longhorn alum, I believe, Bengal, or at least


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I, I, I speculated that it's just a leverage thing, that there's some type of negotiation going on and they're leaking this information to, uh, just, uh, get a bigger piece of the pie. Because really, uhm, I mean, what was it, a couple years ago, Texas threatened to just leave and, and completely break up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the big 12 and for some reason, you know, like they made all these concessions or like, all right, you can have your own, you can have your own TV network. You can do all these things that make you the superlative schools in the conference. So I think something's going on behind the scenes that is, uh, making them, uh, Adam Schefter this up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My big question with that is where do your hands go? They like disappear into your body like a turtle retracting its head. Like your hands just absolutely disappear. Like especially your left one, it's just gone. I don't... Do you have hands? Cause I haven't seen them here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's pretty on brand for him, right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think forcing people to do something is the way to go, but this sets a horrible precedent, right? Like I think you're gonna see players


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Either bullying other ones to get the vaccine or faking results or signing, you know, teams signing guys off the streets or a lot of pressure from the players to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I honestly, yeaah, I think that there will be no missed games. I think, I don't see why you wouldn't get vaccinated. I mean, you're gonna be involved. Like, I mean, come on, we made it through last year without the vaccine existing and there were no cancelled games. The percentages are in favor of every game going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On, this seems like unnecessary posturing by the NFL, uh, but it's, it, it is bad and, and, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like yeaah, I think if they had had this information, somebody...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People would have opted out. Uhm, more people would have. I agree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, I mean, there could be a consideration for cutting someone that just doesn't want to get vaccinated. Absolutely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, the hair's pretty, you gotta admit, but I'm always jealous of anyone with hair, so I'm just gonna go with that. And, uh, Chase Young. What do you mean, is the painting done?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I did not touch it up because I'm finished with it. Like, I can't stand looking at it anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, you can, you can actually do StreamYard on your phone, you should do it during the fucking show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fair enough. Order the, order the, I, I think that the helmet is a little excessive though. It is summertime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you agreed to it. You did not use your veto. We'll see you next week. See you guys!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're gonna have to jog a 5k in that fucking thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am working on the never-ending search for better quarterback statistics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And happy Friday! Thank you for watching The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show on WKYC Channel 3. You get the OG 3 today. I'm Jay Crawford. Coming up in the next 30 minutes, everything you need to know about the Cavaliers and the Magic opening round series that tips tomorrow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think particularly in the East because only four games were, there was a four game spread between the two and the eight that we know of that's never happened in the NBA. So as far as I'm concerned, you could throw these teams in a hopper and just start pulling them out of hats. I wouldn't be surprised of anything in the first round of the East unless the Celtics lose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you've got to win this round. Last year, remember, they came in as the four, lost to the five Knicks. This time it's the Orlando Magic. And I think Mikey, to me, the biggest X factor in this series is the health of one Donovan Mitchell. And you have some information on at least where he thinks he is coming


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll give him 90%. I think they could still beat the magic if he was 90%.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be perfectly honest, having dealt with knee issues my whole life, they don't completely just evaporate in a week. They don't. What you need with his injury is rest. And he has that between his last game and his next game will be more than a week. But I think he may have 100% for game one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then, and there's never back to backs in the playoffs, but then two days later on Monday, he might be 95% and so on. So, but I think they can still win the series if he's still


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is always the discussion for every series and every sport where you play series. Which game is most important? And there's only one answer to that, and that's the next one. But, now I'll go against what I just said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this particular series, all of the pressure is on the Cavs. They're the higher seed, they've got the better roster, they've got more experienced players. This Magic team is a bunch of kids with zero playoff experience. So I think...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The one thing that will be detrimental to the Cavaliers is if they lose one of the first two and go back to Orlando with Orlando having home court. That would be disastrous. They've got to start two up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, gotta hold serve for sure. Alright, now Darius Garland is another guy that we've talked about throughout this season as being a real, like, he's kind of a mystery player. He hasn't had the year that we thought he would. In fact, I think many would say he took a step back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He says, and read this quote, Mikey, I thought this was interesting because their M.O. last year in the playoffs was, they cowered. They got pushed around and they disappeared. What's he saying about the playoffs going into


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I always say that a lot of times I can't hear what you're saying because your actions drown them out. And in this case, it was, I was 100% in line with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have such a bad taste in my mouth for two things that happened in the last two weeks of the season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One thing that I would say the Magic are better at the Cavs. The Cavs have a better roster. They have more experience. Maybe head coach. You know, maybe Orlando. I might give Orlando a slight edge over at head coach, but experience, leadership, uh, roster, home court.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree. I think there's no excuses for the Cavs to lose this series. If they lose this series, there will be folks cleaning out their office in independence. That's correct. Oh yeaah. I can't imagine that there


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, yeaah. That's to be determined, but I think we can say, definitively, if you flame out two years in a row, that's not going to be a good one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so that would be their advantage. And the playoff, the playoff's defense is very important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, let's talk Browns and everybody wants to know, I love that you're going to basically cut out the drama of the regular season for us because in the open, G-Boy said, I'm going to tell you if the Browns are going to make the playoffs. And that's great news because you can, you can put my mind at ease. These are the odds as offered by FanDuel. They're plus 146 to make the postseason.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What, this is going to be a gauntlet in the AFC. We know that. There are 8 to 10 teams that you could say are playoff caliber teams here. No doubt. Do they make the playoffs?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree with you Bull on the AFC North. Just in that division.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are four teams that you would make a strong case can be in the playoffs. No doubt. And that's just that division. Then you start looking around, Houston is so much better. They, they beat the Browns in the playoffs last year. And then you got the Chiefs, you've got the Dolphins, we haven't talked about them, the Bills, what are they gonna look like? Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just because of the division alone, the fact that we're in a division where we already know six games are gonna be against playoff caliber teams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would think that it's slightly more likely that the Browns miss the playoffs than make the playoffs. Last year, if you ask why did they make the playoffs? Well, I would say because of Joe Flacco. He's gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this year you're gonna say, well for them to make the playoffs, what has to happen? Deshaun Watson has to be Houston Deshaun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of all the teams in this part of the offseason, obviously we haven't seen the draft yet, but of all the teams that we talked about, I think the team whose stock


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the team whose stock rose the most, it's the Chargers. I think that Harbaugh is that much of a difference maker, and I think the pieces have been there, they just had terrible coaching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terrible coaching. I do like the Charger stock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were high already. Yeah, they were high already. Alright, we're taking a break. You've got a hundred poker chips. We're going to give you three elements of the 24 Cleveland Guardians. How many of those 100 poker chips are you betting on the three elements that we're going to give you? That's after the break. Stay with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we welcome you back to the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show. Thanks for spending time with us on this Friday afternoon. If you like the WKYC version, check us out on YouTube. Just search Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show. We do two hours live every day, Monday through Friday, 11 to 1. We have a lot of fun too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, welcome to the UCSS Poker Table. Here's the way this game's gonna work. We each have 100 poker chips.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna bet on three trends that the Guardians have set so far this year. Here they are. The Guardians hot hitting. Their shaky starting pitching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they're bullpen brilliance. How many of the 100 chips are you going to push into the middle of the table that these three trends continue?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like you, I have full faith in the bullpen. Watching yesterday's ninth inning, I've never been a comfortable fan in the ninth inning. If you look at the relievers in Indian's history, even when we had Jose Mesa. Oh my god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he was effective, but it was what I call nerve-wracking effective.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chris Perez, all of them through the years, Doug Jones, these guys would come on and they would pour gas on the flame. And even if they got, you know, then they would sometimes get out and make the save, but it was always an adventure. Yesterday for the first time in my fandom as, as a Cleveland guardians Indians fan, I was able to say,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've got this. No shot. I have so much faith and confidence in Klase, not just his results, but his stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, we turned everything into an 8-in-in game. Yeah. And so I'm going 50 chips in on the bullpen. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm 30 chips in on the offense continuing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tend to feel pretty comfortable about it, but it's a small sample size. When we talked about this on the YouTube show today, when you pivot at a point and it's not a gradual change, this organization went from playing don't swing and miss last year to swing away guys, back on your heels and let it fly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they've had great success with it so far. I'm concerned that they can carry that out all the way. So I'll give them 30 and the starting pitching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't believe I'm there, but I'm only putting 20 chips in on the starting pitching, um, remaining shaky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that the, and this is wild, but I think it's gonna end up being the Achilles heel of this team. And that hasn't been the case in a very long time. I'm scared to death of Tristan McKenzie. His velocity being down frightens me, and I know typically the velocity comes from the shoulder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it also can come from the mind. If you're not pitching freely and you're not completely


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Injured the elbow even more, and I'm holding my breath that he finishes the season, but I don't have hopes that he will.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, I think we're all pretty close on that. One way or another, they've got the best record tie with the Yankees for the best record in the American League and barely behind the Braves for the best record in all of baseball. That makes it fun. We're taking a break. NBA playoffs are on the plate when we come back. We're picking all eight opening round series.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta tell you, of all of the series I picked, I gave this one more second thought than any of the other ones. Because I just hate kicking dirt on LeBron. I know who he is and what he does, but this Denver team is phenomenal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that's great. Alright, enjoy the playoffs. Game one of the Cavs and the Magic is tomorrow at one o'clock. Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse will be back on Monday to recap all of it. Have a great, great weekend. Thanks for watching the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Content that is nothing but Cleveland based. I'm Jay Crawford coming up in the next 30 minutes. Does the pitch clock in baseball have anything to do with the incredible increase in elbow injuries amongst pitchers? We'll get into that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we do. Uh, and by the way, I love that you said hi to grandma. Is that because she doesn't watch it when it's streamed, but she can watch when it's on channel three? Bingo. Yeah, that's what I thought. Shout out to you, grandma. Okay, uh, this is gonna be talked about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Moving forward, uh, as we continue to see more and more injuries amongst pitchers. Obviously, Shane Bieber tearing up his elbow. He'll need Tommy John surgery. Last year, he also had a sore elbow. So did Tristan McKenzie. The number of players that have suffered arm injuries, particularly elbow, is through the roof.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do we think that the pitch clock has anything to do with that? The fact that the pitchers are just working on a much faster basis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's an interesting question. I wish I had a definitive answer. I don't know that anybody does. But I will say this. Imagine you're standing in front of a heavy bag.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you punch it as hard as you can. And I don't mean just like a six inch jab, I mean you pull back and you punch it as hard as you can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I tell you now, do that 100 times and just rest 15 seconds between each punch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now you do get the inning breaks where you're sitting down, but even if it's 15 times, 6 times in a row.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you punch it 15 times, 20 times, then you sit down for 10 minutes, then you come up and you do it again. At some point, fatigue is going to become a factor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, because then it becomes the control and the experiment. One of the things that I think is contributing, two things, in the last


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Five to ten years, spin rate has become a buzzword in baseball. A buzz term. Everybody's counting rotation. And guys are doing whatever they can to increase their spin rate. Well, how do you spin a baseball? When you apply pressure to one side at the delivery point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To apply pressure on one side, you're turning your arm to do that. Where, what is affected most by the turning of your wrist? Your elbow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Such a commodity in baseball. It used to be that if guys were considered fireballers, that they were in the low nineties. If you were in the mid to high nineties, you were Nolan Ryan. You were a freak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not anymore. If you don't throw low 90s now, good luck. You better have three A-plus pitches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Greg Maddox never would have been scouted today because he just didn't throw that way. And he said often times after his career, I could have thrown hard if I wanted to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But pitching isn't about throwing hard. It's about hitting spots and ball shape. What you do with the baseball. So I just think that the game has moved on to velocity is key and that's why we're seeing more injuries. Guys are trying to throw high nineties and we're seeing more injuries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You absolutely cannot. And uhm, it's right now, it's a sign of the times. We're seeing a lot of injuries and somebody's gonna have to do a deep dive and figure out exactly why these injuries are happening, but they're definitely happening at an increased rate. Alright.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's talk about the right field position for the Cleveland Guardians.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It wasn't long ago we thought, well that's Oscar Gonzalez and it's gonna be Oscar Gonzalez for 10 years. Wow. And he flamed out last year, uhm, and he didn't last for the Guardians and now


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kinda like Will Brennan, but they're also trying to see if Ramon Laureano can take that position. And also Estefan Florio, who is highly regarded in this organization as a guy who's next.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But none of them are having great success. Will Brennan has so far had the most opportunity and he's put up the best numbers. But what do you think the guardians need to do at right field right now?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's also an opportunity. They've got some guys down in the minor leagues that they think will be major league ready very soon. They're going to keep a close eye on a couple of those guys to see what they're doing in AAA and in AA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that always is a possibility, bringing someone up. But it's interesting, the word platoon,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To Steven Vogt is a bad word. He doesn't like it. Uhm, he, what he loves doing is getting guys at bats, and I think he's done a great job of doing that so far. He's playing three different right fielders, but I believe


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Brennan has played in the most games, 10 or 11. He has more hits than the other two combined. And he has more hits, but he also has more at-bats considerably.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, these guys are getting at bats, and that's good that he's been able to do that. To your point, and it's a good one, when the losses start piling up,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there's a lack of production from that slot in the lineup. It's going to become more of an issue. Right now, they're getting by with it. They're winning. But they're going into a series tonight with the Yankees.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's gonna be a much different test than they've had so far. Even with Seattle and Minnesota, they're not the Yankees. So let's see what happens over the next couple of weeks. But I agree with you. I think by the all-star break, whether it's by trade or calling someone up, they've got to do something with that position and they've got to get some regular production out of right field.

[Assistant] Alright, let's turn pages and talk about the Cleveland Browns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every team has to have unsung heroes. And I think there are a lot of guys on this team that are underrated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who is the most underrated member of this Cleveland Browns team?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So for me, I've got somebody, I'm surprised one of you guys didn't have him. I'm going with Dewan Jones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think this guy is gonna be a plug and play bookend, whether it's right tackle or left tackle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the next 10 years, his size is absolutely astounding. Like, he's just, and all these guys are big, so for him to tower over other guys?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is shocking that he's that much bigger, but he is and he really had a learning curve last year for sure and things didn't start well for him. Remember his first practice he was vomiting on the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there were folks that were saying this guy's not taking it seriously. He didn't show up ready to go. He came from a blue chip program. He should have been ready. Uh, but he did nothing but impress me when he was on the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And whether or not it's switching him to become the left tackle, if Jed Wills doesn't get an extension, it doesn't work out after this year, or he's just a stalwart and a mainstay at the right tackle, I love this kid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, again, if you draft a guy in the fourth round and you have him for ten years, now that's a big projection, but that's a hit. Emerson was a big hit too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. But, and I like your, I like J. Okay. I think all three of these guys are underrated and it's good news that the Browns have a lot of stars and they also have a lot of guys that could be in that underrated category.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's how I would classify Ethan Poach, because I think now Poach is just kind of a guy that we all know is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I would say about him is, I would put him with Amari Cooper in the category of best deal in this 10 years history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because Amari Cooper, we just fleeced Dallas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we picked up Pochich, who was a free agent, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nick Harris went down, so we just picked him up as a, well, he's gonna have to be the guy that slides in there, but he's done a terrific job. Alright, we're taking our first break. When we come back to Cleveland Cavaliers, we have two games left in the regular season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They have a huge one tonight against the Indiana Pacers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's huge because they could see them in the playoff. So, do you go all in to win, or do you hold your hand for a future series? That's next.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right after the first of the year when they went on that 18 and two run one of the best stretches of 20 games in Cleveland Cavaliers basketball history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And where they are now, which is fighting for a playoff spot. They know they're gonna make the playoffs, but they could be as far down as a 7, which means they would have to win a play-in game to get a first round series. They could also finish as high as a 2. That's how tight things are in the East. They play the Pacers tonight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Big because there's a real possibility they end up seeing the Pacers in the first round of the playoffs. How do you approach it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I agree with that 100%. They don't have the luxury of doing that. This team is taking a major step back from last year. And in the NBA, it's all about progression. Two years ago, they made the play-in, they lost. So they didn't really technically get a playoff series. Last year, they made the playoffs, they were a four seed after winning 52 games, and they got bounced.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By a Knicks team that was just better prepared for the playoffs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, if you want to continue that progression, this year means to stay up at that clock, you gotta win the first round series, and you gotta compete in the second round series. So this nonsense of like, well, we're not gonna show them what we do. Guess what? What do they do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think they know. So win the game, play this game like it is a playoff game. And here's why. You also want to send a message to the Pacers. You want to win by 25 points so they know what's coming for them if they do see us in the playoffs. If they, if they


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mess around and lose this game and end up in the 5, 6, 7, 8.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's gonna be a rough offseason at the cast facility. I don't know how these guys can survive the offseason. JB and even go up to Kobe. I don't know how they survive the offseason if it's another one and done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The other thing we mentioned, the changes could happen in both the coach and the general manager. Donovan Mitchell's watching all this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if they end up playing team and lose, I don't see any chance that he wants to come back to this next year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What a fall. It's like we Philadelphia Eagles ourselves. This is what the Eagles did in their regular season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One stuff's up. Alright, we're taking a break. When we come back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The league has approved a third helmet beginning in the 2025 season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We like to consider ourselves on the Elvin Cleveland sports show at the Uniform Police. We talk about uniforms all the time and the sheriff of the Uniform Police is G. And unfortunately, he did not participate in this exercise because he didn't want to be ridiculed. But he is going to show us what


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bull decided for a third alternative helmet. Because remember, last year they added the white.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the alternative. So what is your third alternative helmet?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I thought you were gonna go with? All the helmets should have dreads tied to the back of the helmet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That would be cool. Alright, here's mine. I also went with brown, but I'm gonna stick closer to tradition. And I want the brown helmet, but I want the orange and white stripe. And also, I'm just now thinking about this, but I'm gonna throw this out there. In the 60s, the browns put their numbers.

[Assistant] Diabetes is a long-term medical condition where the body cannot produce enough insulin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes people who have diabetes may have a diabetic emergency where their blood sugar becomes either too high or too low.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both conditions are potentially serious and may need treatment in hospital.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It may be caused by a person with diabetes who has not had the correct dose of medication.
