[Assistant] The last dragon? Bruce Leroy? Yea, right. You remember the girl?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if you had a, if it was a job that wanted to pay you $350,000 a year, you wouldn't consider it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had a 500 square feet apartment in Santa Clara, California.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, yeaah. No, that's not happening. No, I don't think that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's because you're so used to Cleveland's pizza that is messed with you. Nah, I don't think so. Don't just trash.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well you know the big difference is that you got 85 kids on scholarship, you got 90 men on rosters just trying to make it so that your only way of seeing how they will do in a game is to let them play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's some people that don't do well in practice, but do well in the game. For example, me as a rookie in Seattle, my coach was like, I don't think you gonna make it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, it's a point to plan because every, we've seen that teams come out, obviously every year, every since the preseason has went down to three games or whatever the case may be, we've seen offenses start off very slow in the NFL. I mean, it's like, it takes like three weeks for the offenses to get clicking. And I think that,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's because they're not playing as much in the preseason because everybody, you're trying to make it fair for those guys who are battling for the job. You want them to have the majority of the reps so you can see what it's like, so you can know who you picked to keep on your 53 man roster. You get rid of the preseason game, you can forget about all of that, first of all. But I do believe that the veterans need to play more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just because one person is up. I think y'all are, y'all looking at this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's fine, but the thing about this is, like I said, the reason that training camp is such a touchy thing because you go from not doing, I ain't gonna say you're not doing anything, you're training for six weeks but you're not playing football. The only way to get in the shape, the football shape is to play football. So now you're trying to get your body back to playing football at a rapid pace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's why your injuries are coming to take place. So that's why you see the guys go down. I think the Browns are doing it the best way with this, having this extra week. They spent the whole week just jogging around. Not even running full speed. Jogging routes and stuff like that. And it's helping their bodies get back to what they're used to doing before they go zero to a hundred.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he should play a quarter in the second game and a half in the third and then sit out the fourth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The quarterback now, the quarterback that don't really do that much is gonna get hurt. That's what you think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The referee better get a quick whistle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't even make sense. Joe Burrow got hurt from nobody touching him, rolling out, trying to throw a ball. So what are you going to change?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what are you going to change? What would you have done differently?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the division. So let me talk to you from experience. Okay. Alright, can I go back to my college days? Go ahead. Let me remind you of 2014 of a training camp. What happened?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, the San Francisco 49ers took a quarterback. They traded two first round picks, took a quarterback with the, I think the third pick of the draft. He goes down. They bring in Mr. What is it? What is it called? Irrelevant. Mr. Irrelevant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mr. Irrelevant came in there undefeated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then that'll be that excuse, you know, it'll be that we didn't have Joe stuff and I'm a competitor, I wanna beat you at your best.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It makes you relax. As a fan, if you know you don't have to worry about Joe Burrow and how great he is, you'll be like, I'll take that win. I'll take that win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't do that. Because I just told you, I seen a clip yesterday. Anthony, I think got the clip. We'll play it in a second.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's the easiest throw in the endzone?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was some Dallas Clips and Dak Prescott threw this ball to this, threw a quick slant to the receiver. The receiver bounces off the receivers hand and the DB catches it. And they say, this is the worst throw by Dak Prescott I've seen. And they said that he's going to probably break the interception record or what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So listen, 29 is respectable because at least you're in the top 32. I mean, you gotta think about it. It's 11, 11 on offense, 11 on defense. He's not a starter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How is he the second? The two star linebackers is J.O.K. and Anthony Walker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Anthony Walker goes down. Jacob Phillips goes down. Boom. They put him in the box. He looks like a superstar in the middle of the line back there. And I'm just like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think that, that's what made him get to 29. I mean, obviously, you know, it was just, they gave him a one year deal. Obviously he's coming back off the ACL injury, but he was very productive in there. And that Mike Linebacker position, Anthony Walker is the name that we are comfortable with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's not nothing set in stone. Whoever comes back and plays the best is probably going to be the Mike Linebacker. And like I said, the way he was playing, he was trending in a great direction before he got hurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause this, in Jim Schwartz's defense, which I watched some film on Tuesday night, it's literally almost the same thing as Joe Woods was doing. The defensive tackle's gotta eat up two blocks and keep the linebackers free. If that doesn't happen, it doesn't matter if Ray Lewis is that linebacker, they ain't gonna get off the blocks because they undersized.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I learned from Cam Chancellor, you know, Cam plays in the box, you know, box safeties is essentially linebackers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I was asking Cam, like, you know, what are you reading? You know, like, what's your read? How do you be knowing where the ball is going? And he said that it's like a little triangle that he looks at. So yo, as a safety or as a down safety, yo, yo, initial key is the tight end, right? So he would look at the tight end to the guard to the backfield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cuz if it's a run and it's a pull, obviously the guard's gonna pull and go, you know the flow that way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's all about, in football, it's all about your eyes. If your eyes is in the right spot, it'll take you to where the ball is a lot of the time. A lot of people, you get caught up looking at the wrong thing, you look at the quarterback, you look at this, this tackle, something like that, then now you're messed up. But if your eyes is where you're supposed to be, it'll tell you everything you need to know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's part of film study. Find the guy that's gonna give you a key to tell what's to come of the play. Like that's part of film study.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like Earl would sit there and watch the same play a hundred times and I'd be like, what are you looking at? And he'd be like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That film study is everything in the league, cause it's all above shoulders. Everybody's physically gifted in the league, but what do you see? Your eyes, your mind, can you dictate what's coming? Like that's what makes you, that separates you from being a good player to a great player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know who taught me that? It was a dude that played for the Cleveland Browns that went to Wisconsin to be a coach. His name is Jim Leonard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you be knowin' this? And he saw what he did one day was cause my coach was like a coach of his when he was younger. And he gave his playbook to my coach and said, get this to your players and show them what it takes. If you can see the notes that that dude took for film, I said, oh yea, if this is what you gotta do to be great, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It teaches you how to play. Like I said, Seattle was a lot of the times where I learned we went up against the Chiefs when they had Tyreek Hill. This is, this is prom Tyreek Hill. If you ever watch when Seattle played the Chiefs and they had KJ Wright at linebacker,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Tyreek Hill was at number three and he was on the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] KJ was at line 3, so you count outside, so he's the third receiver close to the tackle, and he's on the ball, so he's on the line of scrimmage. If he was lined up like that against Seattle's defense, because Seattle runs cover 3 all the time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That means he's running the deep over route. And obviously Tyree- Every time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty much. Probably 98% of the time he's running over. So if you watch him, you'll see KJ Wright was the outside linebacker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His responsibility is, he gotta carry Tyree Kill on over. Obviously the speed difference is huge. So what KJ did was,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Instead of playing 5 yards off the ball, he line up 10 yards off the ball, like dang near with the safeties. And he'd play it like that because that was his only chance of beating. And if he gave up a 6 yard run, so be it. But you can't afford to give up this deep shot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I know for, well. You don't know what's in the cards in the picture, right? I do know that. Yeah, I know that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I know he was an all-star, but I don't remember. I'mma go with G. I don't know what years. Alright, G saying true. I don't remember years, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like, and I like the, I like the controllables, only that's the one thing about my trade is that, yeaah, it's just for the year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nooo. When he came back here, what'd he thought? That number six LeBlanc was different. He was the most athletic, gifted dude I ever seen. He embraced that. Yea, but he, I think he,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you ever seen Cam Chance, when I seen Cam Chance for the first time in 2016, he looked like the green thing off Space Jam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, that's interesting that you say that because you know of somebody else that's like that too. His name is Tybus Powell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listen, if y'all, y'all listen, Steve, everybody here is old and you know, they out of their element. They all understand that the biggest fight of the year is happening tomorrow. If you don't watch Bud vs. Errol Spence, I don't know what you doing. You better stay up to midnight to see this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terrence Croft, Terrence, Bud Crawford vs. Errol Spence Jr.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Belts is on the line. Whoever win this is like one of the best fighters in the game. Outside of Javontae Davis because Tank is that dude. So these guys are Welterweights? Yes, Welterweights. Yes. What does that mean? They're both undefeated. One is I think 30, I think Bud might be 39 and 0 and I think Arrow might be 29 and 0. How much they weigh? Like 143.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I don't think Tank went past the sixth round, maybe sixth or seventh round, ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean, what is it about these two fighters and their style, you know, that stands out above the rest of the other boxers?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean, do you think that Floyd messed up things by having the undefeated record and that's why some certain guys duck and dodge other opponents because they want to keep, stay undefeated?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Respecting a person's individuality, letting a person be who they are, you know what I'm saying? I ain't saying I started the whole hippie thing, but I put the idea out there, you know what I'm saying? So, that's where-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Steve gravitates towards counter-cultural conservative figures that have an ability to resonate with middle America.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There certainly was a chemistry and an energy between the two of them where you could see that they were both thinking, this is a person who could get me to the next level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He gave me the bad news very quickly, and I had a delayed response. I couldn't process it at that moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you are seen as the most powerful right of center person in America, or one of the two or three most, you're gonna get called a racist, a sexist, a bigot, a xenophobe, a homophobe, an Islamophobe, and there's not much you can do about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a big victory for our audience because they thought that this was putting the interests of the permanent political class in Washington ahead of the common people throughout the country. That was a significant moment in our development in realizing we can get results.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They wanted to rush this thing through and get it out there, uh, and essentially take a shock and awe approach to changing immigration policy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bannon didn't want other agencies to have a chance to see what was in this executive order and say, whoa, whoa, wait a minute, slow down. This might not be something we want to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He made an insurgent run for student class president when he was a junior. I was very Trump-like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He attacked his opponents for being tools of the administration, establishment people, and he was an outsider.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was aboard the ship when the mission went bad. He blamed Jimmy Carter for this failure, for hurting American prestige.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now they've reached all the way over to the United States, they're coming here, they're killing Americans, uh, he viewed that as a civilizational war.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Miller was this little ideologue. I mean, everybody on the Hill knew who he was because, you know, he was very active and he would blast you in the media. And he would blast reporters with press releases day and night. And a lot of reporters considered this spam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of a sudden, Republicans who thought they wanted to pass this thing were getting phone calls and getting picketed by furious constituents that say, how can you be doing this? You have to stop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Trump was reading and digesting Breitbart News as long ago as 2013, 2014, uh, and internalizing these things, and nobody paid any attention because nobody cared about Donald Trump in politics in 2014.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you look at public opinion polls, the people who voted for Trump think that he's doing just fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is Steve Bannon. That is the effect of Steve Bannon saying


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You, Mr. Trump, are gonna keep your eye on the ball. You're gonna keep saying these things. You're not gonna be swayed by these establishment people in Washington who don't have your own interests at heart.

[Assistant] No Jumper, coolest podcast in the world. Today I'm here with Enzo Amore. Well, formerly known as. Formerly known as. Just Enzo these days. Just Enzo, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're an energy drink kind of guy, you just go in the gas station and just buy them out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This feels so hard to imagine this because from my perspective, like I've watched, you know, documentaries and shit about like what it's like to become a wrestler and it feels like you just have to go through these.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But do you think that you just had the personality, cause like, you know, yea, the physicality of wrestling is a big part of it, I mean, you tell me, but the physicality is important, the body that you have is important or whatever, but were you just like, so funny and charismatic that they just latched onto you right away and they were willing to let you bypass all the normal shit that people go through?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tweet that. They've figured out that people want to see men in spandex small underwear where you can see roughly how big their penis is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe around. I mean, you ever like just hop in the pool and then you get out and like your bathing suit is just like weirdly like shaped to your penis and like you just realize that there's like a grandma and she's looking at the outline of your dick?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But wrestling, are you making enough money that you can just take a $2500 blunt hit?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, definitely. I just don't feel my brain has enough coats. Uhm, but so, you're telling me that this is basically like the-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, but even people who, like, this is basically you saying that you'll never wrestle again because the WWE would frown on you smoking weed so strongly that they would not ever want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Six hundred dollars a week though, so do you, and basically when you sign that contract, you're committing to be on the road. You can't have another job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Definitely, yeaah. Even when I was a wrestling fan, which was largely when I was like 10, 11 years old, but I was always super interested in the characters and the behind the scenes that I didn't really have access to at that time. Like nowadays I feel like fans can kind of like see behind the veil a bit more. So that's like an interesting part about it, but like I was never really


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That intrigued by watching these guys run back and forth and bounce off the ropes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. And it's like such a different age now. But you had a hard time fitting in with the culture of the wrestlers. What is the culture like backstage in those wrestlers, in those locker rooms?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's got a guy? Head on over to Atlan of the plug on Instagram and let's see if we can get her verified because this is Enzo Kalinji's got serious connections. I got a guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's gonna be tremendous. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping, if so, I will get her, her and I will repay you in some absurd way that will seem appropriate in comparison to what you have done. Which I know is very vague.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, connect dots. There might have been a hair in there because I feel like these, these nugs, well I guess they're just all weirdly connected together, yea. If you want to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've humiliated a lot of kids. A lot of kids will come through. I mean, I don't hate them. I just prefer an odd door. Like a fan will come through and they'll try to hand me some like disgusting joint that they rolled. That's like the most horrible looking thing ever. They'll be like, I've been dreaming about smoking with you bro. I look at it. I'm like, yeah, I'm not, I'm not putting that in my mouth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, but okay, so tell me about this though, like, preceding the events that sparked off that would lead to you leaving the WWE, what space were you in in your career? Were you super motivated? Did you think you were going to be doing this for another 10, 20 years? Where was your head at before things started to go bad?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So then, what was the scenario that happened? Is like, what we on the outside heard, well especially from my perspective, since I'm not a big rapper fan, is that Tyler Grosso and Tupor were basically implicated in some kind of like weird scenario where it was alleged that you had taken advantage of a girl while she was fucked up at a party. Is that, is that accurate?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Remember the G Unit Snaker? I scammed him on stealing credit cards back in the day, yea. Blue Yankee Fettit, G Unit Snaker.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You ever think about that? You don't even feel his need to leave it. People who dress really nice, they get a lot of respect, people view them in a certain way. I can't bring myself to do it. I can't bring myself to like put something here. You can't even handle some sleeves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How's that selling your own merch after doing it through WWE for all those years?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I actually knew you were gonna do this before you did it. Yeah, it was bananas. Right. And what'd you do? You like just stood up on a chair and started screaming?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like, well, so how do you feel like the fans that you had from wrestling felt about the music and to what extent do you think that that carried over?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you feel like that was kinda like an accidental thing, that wasn't something like, you didn't have a genius viral marketing strand to your brain at that time? No I did, yea of course, absolutely. It feels like that was like too, like when you say that, it sounds too well put together to be accidental as a marketing device.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He doesn't have a job. Logan Paul? Logan Paul. He might not have a job, but he'd make a lot of money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well they've also both put out music. They've both put out rap records. See what I'm saying bro? A freestyle rap contest would be interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You could both put out diss tracks in the lead up to the wrestling match. That would help with promo and stuff like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You could act like it was organic and like we didn't just plan this out on a podcast in advance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if they have to get drug tested for this fight?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's see what he's got to say here. I don't think I have Logan Paul's number, I think I only have Jake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why would you hook me up with her? So you can shit on her chest, yea. You could do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of parts of America, the Hooters has the hottest girls in town.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To me, that's an argument for why you should have never been kicked out of the WWE as well. There's a precedent that's been set.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was it hard to get them to do the budget for the Gucci? They didn't pay for any of it. You paid for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a serious businessman. Appreciate you, man. Thank you for coming on. Let's do this again sometime soon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're like, I think Jake Paul's like 21. Jake Paul? Jake. I think he's young. 21, 22, something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Great. Sagey Bush, how you doing this morning? Yeah, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's, it's, that's really a tough, you know, McNuggets just told me this morning, I was like, what? What are you like, like who? And earlier than him was talking back and forth, like, Bronnie James and I heard heard it, I'm like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, it's almost like it's impossible. Like you just think, like you said, Jason, like that's LeBron James kid. Like he, you know, obviously, you know, he has the best of world-class staff, nutrition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's that young, he's, he's, he's in a top, peak physical performance, uh, type, top shape, just for that to happen. You know, any, I don't have any children yet, but you know, Jason, you, you do, and that's just, you know, God forbid, you know, thinking about you, you get that kind of news. You, like, you say, what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm kinda, you know, cautiously optimistic like Jason said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I look at it like this. Uhm, you know, I like Jaylen High a little bit, a little bit better because he's faster. Uhm, you know, Brown said, I think the Giants went up and grabbed him two picks before, or it might have been a one pick before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so, you know, they just let it, they let the draft and the board come to them. So, you know, Selman can do some things. I mean, when he's healthy, he's shown that some flashes of a guy that can high point the ball be physical. Uhm, but I do think that we're going to see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think he's gonna have to play, uh, you know, the third round picks, uh, Bell and Schwartz have not had, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, not had the impact that we would have liked to have as, as third round picks. And then you talk about guys like Demetri Felton, who was, you know, Kevin Stefanski early this morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, talked about, you know, Demetrius is, is mainly running as a running back. They're not using him so much as a, as a receiver. So, uhm, you know, you got Harley Jr. and a couple other guys. Uhm, but, you know, and I think Isaiah Weston, the guy they had before who asked him to be, he ended up retiring, uh, because of injury. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, he's going to get an opportunity to play. I'm not sure whether he's going to have a great year. I don't, I wouldn't expect him to come out like a game bus or anything, but I do believe that, you know, he has some skill sets and we'll see if Deshaun Watson, because that's what, well, you got a good quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The quarterback chooses who his guy is, right? If it's third down, I'ma find this dude, I'ma find this guy. And we've yet to see who that guy is, but I'm sure we'll see it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll just take the four touchdowns. Like if you can give me four touchdowns in the red zone, that's what I'm, if you said he can give you four.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you say, Bill can give you four, he can give you four, that's one guy. That's eight touchdowns between the two of them. That's how I look at the second team guys, like, what can I get accumulated from a bunch of these guys that are young guys?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we used to watch the old school browns was we had Jarvis and Odell and we had Baker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of them was like low-key the same height. So Baker either could get the ball knocked down into the line of scrimmage or Jarvis could have 96 people all over him. And it just would seem like their catch radius never gave it any room for error. I like to throw the ball and be like, Oh, he can go get that over here and over here and I'm going to be perfect. But Elijah Moore is kind of sys-stature alarmed me a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But don't him and Tatum play the same position? They just be acting like they don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I went through- But not at 60 million. Yeaah. And, and, okay, well what is Tatum getting then?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know you gotta retain your guys and they don't have any other options, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, it's not like they pay dividends. It's not like Jalen Brown and Tatum have gotten championships. Now they've gotten close, right? They've been to the finals. Uhm, last year everyone would agree it was kind of a disappointment. So even when you give me Prezegas, uh, you give me Jalen Brown and Tatum, I don't know if those three guys are even


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the ballpark of winning the championship. On paper, it looked cool, but what happens if Fersingis gets hurt?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think people expect Philly to take that kind of drop a little bit, and it makes it even more difficult.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For teams like the Cavs, right? Because the Cavs are like, okay, well, Philly's going to take a little step back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't even know if we believe, we never really believed in the Hawks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe we just, we caught the Knicks when we were younger and didn't understand what type of time it was. We think we got better talent than they do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So now it's like, okay, we got Donovan Mitchell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do we, how do we project where we could be next year? Because next year is the pivotal year. And they're thinking like maybe if we keep them around, maybe we can get out of the East and try to make some noise in the Eastern Conference that this movement is shaking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll go back a couple of years later and this just hit me while they were talking about it and you were talking and I was just going through my mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I go back to Toronto a couple years ago when they had Kawhi Leonard, right? They make the deal for Kawhi Leonard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, they know he's going to be a, you know, I think it was a, you know, they know he's going to be... This is last year. Last year. One year rental. One year rental. And...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They go back, they go and win the championship, right? You got Kyle Lowry. Uhm, they just played lights out. He looked like he fit. They loved him there. The crowd was exciting. Everything was beautiful. It was just like, if you want to talk about all the things that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That a player should want, right? They look like they have stability. They look like they got a great fan base. They look like they're a winner. You just beat the Warriors with KD. Granted, they were injured. And guess what? He still left. To me, that set a precedent. Even if Donovan Mitchell and the Cavs win a championship next year, that'd be great. Love it. It's even more likely that he's going to leave. It's true. Because he has a ring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's, he's, he's, his dad works in the front office. He knows how to talk in front of the media.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's not going to give you anything. He's not going to give you a rock the boat and make you think anything. He is very good at his job in terms of he's, he, he does it in a way where he doesn't alienate fans and he can also always say,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're trying to figure out what the meta is, like, okay, what is, like, alright, what's the, like, how does this thing, like, remember back in the day when people would buyouts, not buyouts, but amnesty was out there, and people were just like, alright, you just, a lot of these people that you gave big deals to, you could just say, oh, that doesn't count anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the big thing that I take away from this is, I don't think Donovan Mitchell is going to be here long term. I think a lot of people knew that. But, uhm, if you're the Cavs, you just, you keep them this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You keep them next year, you hope you win a championship in those years, and if you do get to the finals and you do have to let them go or whatever the case may be, at least you went to the finals. Like, you know, you tried it, it didn't work, at least you got there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then you got to tear it down a little bit and try to find out, or hopefully you've got some people that are stepping up that can take that position or you got some guys within that you're developing that could help you out or go get out a free agent, get a free agent that, you know, you may trade for somebody because you do have the cap space once Donovan Mitchell isn't here. So that's the way I look at it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Guardians are the equivalent of a lot of Americans who work paycheck to paycheck. Uhm, they don't do something in their career of choice. It's just a job. But they have kids and they have bills and they gotta keep going to work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so basically you live this existence where...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're just skating through life. You're not really living life to the fullest. You can't go on many vacations. You can't plan anything around your little small paycheck. But at the same time, you can't quit your job because you got a kid. You got, you got responsibilities.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what ends up happening is you, you just existing. You're just there. And that's just the guardians or a team who have no room for error. Like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For them to play well, for them to be in contention, true contention, not making the playoffs and doing something in the wild card or maybe winning the first round game, they need multiple things to happen right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have McKenzie, that's not going to play, uh, rest of the year probably. Beaver, who looks like he's now in his 60s, he looks like he's up out of here. Or most of the season that's meaningful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so now you depend on young pictures and you know what happens with young pictures, but at the same time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you bring up three young pitchers at the same time, same place, same time, now they got them on pitch counts for the year. You better guarantee that they got a total number of pitches Williams, Logan, and Bybee are going to play. And they, I wouldn't even be surprised if they even did make a really a playoff run, that they would still shut those guys down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so you don't have the availability of any veterans. They'll shut, they're going to have to shut down their best players even if they get there and they just don't have a major league. They're not a major league hitting team. The guardians are a


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Triple A style team. Like they, they just don't have power at the places you need to have power. And it's frustrating because you see it in games. The guardians can be ahead the whole game. Playing well, pitching well, everything looks good and all of a sudden because somebody comes up two run, home run, three run, home run, you lose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just difficult for them to consistently sustain wins, put long games together. And I just think that's just part of them being who they are. And this year, uhm, will the people hurt? It's gonna be too hard to call back. Yeah, Earl asked a question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'll tell you what, the quietest cap, Jose Ramirez will be 31.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess my apprehensiveness about the future of the roster is, we've always been able to say, oh, at least we got Jose. We got Jose. At least we got that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's getting older. I mean, at some point in time, do we go back and look at this like, man, we wasted a prime, the prime of his career, and now he might be declining a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's two rare mistakes. One of them they continue to make.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, Oscar Gonzalez played what, 25 games? Something like that? Wasn't a lot, yeaah. And he was buried, he's still buried in the minors. He's an opera, and I'm like Jason, look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what he did. I don't know if he sent a bad email to somebody. I don't know if he ate too many turkey sandwiches in a clubhouse or what happened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't look like they like the guy. They just don't like him. I'm just, like, sometimes, let's be clear, some people don't get along with somebody because there's no reason you have a lack of power in your outfield and this guy was able to give you a sense of power, a young guy with a bat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you don't play him because he's undisciplined at the plate. Well listen, there's a bunch of disciplined guys that still can't hit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Miles straw, that's the next one. Miles straw is the second, it's inexplicable. They are now looking like they're platooning him back and forth where he's not starting every day. But, but they're, and you gave him a contract. You gave him money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought they, I thought they took way too long to bring Bownailer up. Uhm, he was hitting the ball well and he didn't bring him up. Uhm, so for me, there are glaring things that they've done where it just seems like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're really stubborn and they never seem to be a stubborn organization. They always seem to be like level headed and always had a plan to what they was going to do, whether you agree with it or not. But some of the moves this year, it just baffles me as to why you're not moving. These are clear, easy moves. These ain't like three dimensional chess. These is checker moves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd rather play all young dudes. I'd rather play Gavin Williams, Bybee, uh, Allen, uh. Bring up George Valerian. Bring them all up. I'd rather see them than the old dudes. Because at least you could tell, at least I could go to the game and you admit it to me. Well look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What we're trying to do is a youth movement. We're giving our guys opportunities to win positions out here. And at least we'll have some hope like, hey, next year we'll be good. We can see what we're talking about. And I think in a perfect way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what I'm saying is I don't believe that with their young players it's a full punt. I just think their young players might be their best players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, breakout is extreme, like breakout means like to me breakout means like you're a pro bowler, right? Like breakout means like you got a chance to make the pro bowl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I think he'll play better this year. It all depends on, I think he needs a specific, special,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've always said that they had to create a position for him, because I think he struggles a little bit too much in the run game. But I will say this, uh, he will, he will, he will definitely get, um, the benefit of having a wide nine and guys up front. So, um, I think, I don't know if it's breakout, but I think he'll play better than last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They just come out like game busters and they surprise a lot of people because they do have talent. Or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They can come out and still have a lot of talent and lose the first three games and people have a mutiny and we all go crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's Feast of Feminism. Is there any in-between in your opinion about where the Browns could be? I think it's either a great season or a disappointing one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, uh, Ross, we, we, we were gonna talk about this later on in the show, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Given the climate of the running back position, you see a lot of really good backs or at least guys that used to be really good backs. Ezekiel Elliott, Dalvin Cook, Josh Jacobs, a lot of people not getting big contracts. A guy here, Nick Chubb, was I think one of the last guys to get a solid extension.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and, and you hear, you know, Andrew Berry talk about him being a superstar. And the question we're asking is, you know, we're asking the show was whether or not Nick Chubb is the exception to the rule. Are there any exceptions to the rule, uhm, for any running back? So is this just a situation where,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just, it's just part of the business now where you're not going to pay a running back moving forward. Or do you see that, you know, certain people are a little different based on what they give you on the field, off the field and in terms of what they mean to the organization.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In Cleveland, Ohio, it just seems like, uhm, they're, you know, in Ohio, generally, period.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, when are you going to be innovators? When are you going to be on the cutting edge of something? When are you guys going to make decisions where, where you can, you can be looked at as an industry leader? It don't make sense that these other stadiums, that the Bengals, right? The Bengals got a new stadium after us and is about to get another stadium.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How is it possible that that's, that's, you know, here. And then my thing is, I don't care where they put it. If they want to put it downtown, great. Or make it a state of art facility. Make it the best you can make it. Don't slack. You got an opportunity now. You have a runway. You have the money. Jimmy Haslam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do whatever you need to do and pull the strings. You're richer than I don't know how many other owners. You got the bag. You spent two hundred and some nine million dollars on the Milwaukee Bucks. Now look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All we care about here in Cleveland is this. Do right by our franchise. We started here. The Browns are the flagship. Don't get it twisted. We like the Bucks and what they're going to do us do, but when Yanis is finished, they're out of here. Let's be clear about that. There's a ticking time bomb on that too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want to see a retractable stadium. I want to see something where you can draw some concerts. Nowadays live entertainment is a thing to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta get into the live entertainment. Where's the rodeos? Where's the derbies? Where's, where's the rock concerts? It's the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. How do you not have the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame concert series with every great, great rocker here? They just don't market it right. Give me a dome. You got the 400 million or whatever this is gonna cost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's just for the roof. That's just for the roof. But preferably, I would like to see it downtown too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I always wanted to have like a AFC championship game on, on the North Shore. I would love to see that. But if you think you can't get it down there because the politicians ain't gonna work with you and they got not gonna move the airport.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They go put it somewhere else, but it needs to be a brand new facility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's very unpopular if you are running for office to say, I'm going to give all these tax breaks and all this money to a guy that's a billionaire. Cause your constituents and your party's gonna say,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why are we giving this guy tax breaks? Why are we paying for half of it or three quarters of it when he has the money, obviously. So why don't, why doesn't he partner with us and reinvest with us as a city? So it's hard for somebody to get behind that. And what happens is you just put a bunch of proposals out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You say we need to redevelop, but it comes down to, where's the money coming from?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, look man, if I'm the duke of knee-jerk, he's a superintendent of knee-jerk. He gets it, like, his stuff will switch over dinner. Like, Jimmy has something, like, change the jerseys. Jimmy, we can't do that for three years. I said change them. I don't like them. I don't like peas. Like, it's just not gonna work like that. The thing is,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He knows good and well. And I always, always point to this line of demarcation right here. When the Bengals was drafted right along with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the Bengals got the third pick overall, right? I think it was the third pick overall. They were terrible. They won like a two game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then they went to the Super Bowl the next year, all best of all. I was like, you know what, dammit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, they sold us on this three to five year plan every three to five years. And I, the Bengals just went to the Super Bowl with a quarterback with no old line. He just tore his ACL too. Off an ACL injury. And I'm like, so we gotta keep resetting this. And they just, no. At that point, I think it showed people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why is it every single year that other teams are having resurges, like the Dolphins or these other places? And Jimmy Haslam looked at his squad and was like, you know what, you're right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You right, uh, this is it. This is all we got going. Now, God forbid, I hope that Stefanski is here because that means they were successful, they won some games, but I just want people to know


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What we're looking at, if it does not work, it's gonna be some changes. Like Ross said, everybody's gonna get blown out. So I gotta learn to like Stefanski because I do not want to go through that no more. I don't, I don't. And Jimmy Haslam knows good and well that he'll be out of here if they don't, if they don't make the playoffs this year. It is what it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's your barometer, Jason, until we think about it. If you, if you go to that season and you lose to the Bengals, the Steelers, and the Ravens. If you're 1 and 3 at the bye.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is there, is there any, is there any world where you got, where you guys see one or the other making it? Uh, so basically, do you, is there any world where Andrew Berry is still here, but Kevin Stefanski is not?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, so messed up. If Kevin Supanski gets fired, I actually think he'll go somewhere and be a good coordinator. I think he'll be a great head coach. I think he'll go somewhere and if he gets the right quarterback, you'll be like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's almost, it seems like almost like the thing with the, the guys on Belichick staff when he was here in the nineties, where you had all those guys, like, I mean, they had everybody at Kurt Farrant's. Uh, I think, wasn't John Gruden here a little bit? No, he was in Green Bay, but I know obviously, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think he's the understated leader of the team. Uhm, because, you know, like, when you playin' football, you know, I'll give you a quick story. We had, uh, Ryan Hawke, right? So, it's A.J. Hawke's brother, right? He played at Miami, he threw for a bunch of yards, and he transferred to OU, right? So we like, oh, hell yeah!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so when you look at it, you gotta have results first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't be the undisputed leader until you get that fourth quarter comeback. Or when the defense give up a late score and you say, no dog, I got it, right? You need that thing. Remember when Baker Mayfield came in?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it gets to Jets. And it was down a couple touchdowns or whatever. You know, he throws a pass to Jarvis Landry that was a laser. I don't even know how he still caught it. And then they got the Philly throwback special or whatever the case may be. When they came back and won that game,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's when he became the leader. That right there, it was undisputed. Deshaun Watson has to have a signature moment. When you get a signature moment that says, I am here, I have arrived.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fans will get behind you. The team will get behind you. Coaches will get behind you. And the media will actually get behind you too. Because the media is still at this point not even giving him the benefit of the doubt. But when they see it, they'll be like, okay, alright, well, now it's different.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As far as the captain thing, if you're wearing a C, he definitely wants to get the captain. Like I look at pick quarterbacks that were, Matt Ryan was the captain on the Colts. Uh, Carson Wentz, they gave him a captain. I'm like, the quarterback literally has to be the captain. It just is what it is. Like it's just,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, they control too much of the way you play. They got the ball every single play. And it's weird to have a lineman be a captain because linemen don't, they don't affect the game in a way like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, one of the things I keep going back, I just keep going back watching these 80's Browns and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bernie was, was getting taped together and thrown back out there, but one thing he did, they always talked about was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He knows what's going on, he's going to put you in position to play the game, and he led based on all the decisions that, they gave him the full playbook. I'm encouraged more that they said Deshaun Watson said I got access to the full playbook.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically said I'm going to be able to run my thing out here, do my thing. And Jason talked about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Way back in January and February about how it was going to be. But he's going to have access to the whole offense. He got the keys. So one thing I always say is, yeaah, you can try to blame Sufanski because he's the next up on the, on the, on the cut list because that's just the way it works.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if Deshaun is not successful this year, he's going to have to take a large sum of that blame too, because he's going to have the autonomy that I've never seen another quarterback have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, ownership. You like people having skin in the game. You like people taking ownership of it, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, you know, he'll have that ability and we'll see where it goes, but they're there. Earl, what's the internet saying today?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No activity at the airbase. Looks like we don't need to worry about interceptors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And don't forget the PR angle. Nations start playing Frankenstein with their troops, and the public goes nuts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] PMCs on the other hand are off the ethical radar.

[Assistant] In a way, cyborgs are just SOP troops by another name.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bad news, right? We can't find George.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wait, Marshall has the security contract for this base.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why would they have their cyborg set to the same illegal exit code as Desperado? It's evidence against them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think there's any chance he signs an extension there ever. And if it was up to me, I would trade Donovan Mitchell today because I don't think the calves are getting as far as they hope to next year. And I don't think he's going to extend. And I think they'll get a lot more form with two summers left than they will with one summer left. Now I also am fully aware.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can start to figure out exactly the kind of team we want to have around these three guys and put ourselves in as good a position as possible three or four years and out of contend. I understand anybody thinking otherwise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] America's diseased. Rotten to the core. There's no saving it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In my new America, people will die and kill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know, listen, you see, that's the difference. Like, see, if you're boating with black people, we see the clouds coming immediately. You know, you know well enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can, you can do it. Ma'am, I, I shout out to my parents. They try to put me in a good situation to be a well-rounded young man. Gave you swimming lessons? Got me swimming lessons at a very early age. Good. Now what happened was I had an instructor that scarred me for life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The guy, the guy, the guy, he was out, he put, everybody was supposed to put their head underwater. And I'm like, bro, this is the second day. And I was only like five. I'm like, no, this is too accelerated. You're not supposed to see this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was, this was not on a syllabus. This was second week. This was all, this was when we were supposed to eat cookies and take naps. Man, this dude was like, he dunked my head under the water and I think I swallowed the whole pool. I thought it was over. I was going to die. I couldn't breathe. I was like, call my mother.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I, I didn't, I didn't go back, but then eventually, uh, I did learn, um, and then, you know, one of them, I was like, okay, I did learn, I'm cool, because our middle school used to make us go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we would go and they would make us go, but I wasn't no crazy swimmer swimmer. You didn't love it. Didn't love it, but I could, I could float. So one day, I was 11, 12 years old, 11, I was at a picnic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was running. It was, it was raining outside. You know, they were like, guys, we can't get you in the pool. It's raining and my thunderstorm might die. So we was at a baseball picnic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was right before the city championship game. The game before, I had hit a grand slam. And I was like, oh yea, listen, I'm hot right now. Man, it started raining, it cleared up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And my dumb self, they said, guys, you can get in the pool. My mom said, fine. I come running down a grassy road.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And boy my head tipped over and I tripped on something and I didn't know what I tripped on. There was stairs that goes down to the pool. Whatever didn't lead, like where the stairs were, I hit my big toe. And I hit my big toe like right at the base.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I hit my big toe, I tumbled over, spilled over, and my left arm was in the swimming pool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That bears, I said, but that's cool. Bears are like, oh gee, but you're funny. Did I look down?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, yes, we lost to the city championship game. And you did not play? I did not play. I was out eight months. I couldn't play football. I went, I tackled my mother. Uhm, and then I went and got it fixed and then it called me back two days later. I was like, yeah, these regular stitches ain't gonna work. We got to put a steel rod in it. And I cried again. Oh my God. You tackled your mother.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Baby blue and red, man. And you know I'm getting kind of old because when I see that, I'm like, man, I get scared because I think more of a moon plan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dan Pasterini. You'd be like, dang, they play a little different. That's the first team I ever see. I used to ask my dad, I'd say, dad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Houston and Cleveland. No, Cincinnati, that made sense. But then they put the Jaguars in there for a little bit. The Jaguars is an A of C.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We make half summer league trend. Oh, we did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, actually, Andrew Barry is, I think, is doing it the way that pretty much 98% of the teams do it. It's a case by case situation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, the more talented you are, the more leeway and opportunity you're gonna get. Uhm, that's just the way it is with the NFL. Uhm, I think the ship has sailed on a lot of the moral standings and moral standing ground that people have. When you're Andrew Barry, and he's looking at it like this,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one's going to tell him he did a great job and clap it up for him if they go 1-4 out the gate. If they go 1-4 out the gate, he's going to be going with Stefanski. So no one's going to say, hey, you know what, but his record, his record with players, you know what, all his players graduated from college and you know what, you know, hey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't care about that. Eventually, you're going to get fired. You are what your record. You are what the record says you are. So when you look at it, he's like, look, I'm going to take it case by case. Uhm, you know, we'll figure out when we meet that different specific type player, but to be good in the NFL, even Bill Belichick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even Bill Belichick drafted Aaron Hernandez. Correct. Even Bill Belichick took Randy Moss. He brought Ocho Cinco in. He brought, uh, uh, what's his name, uh, Antonio Brown in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wasn't even doing nothing wrong with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When a thing happened with Greg Newsom, with the cars,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, who was with him? Perion Winfrey was with him? And Perion Winfrey? Like to me...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He didn't do anything wrong in that situation, but what that showed me was... He was out. You outside too much. You outside. You just got... There's no way that if I'm on paperwork...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I'm on any sort of paperwork, there was no way, or probation, there was no way I'm in a club at two or three, because guess what? Anything happen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or I come out the club later, somebody said that I said something, even they know what you look like. So for me, I said, oh, he don't get it. He's, he's,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is, this is why I, I, I got in, I got in these little tips on Twitter with people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who don't understand. Take it from me. If there's somebody that knows about being injured as me. If I tell you, I've had all of them. If you, if you line them up, every injury on the body, I got to mark somewhere in my body for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now mind you, they ain't even hit nobody yet. And when we was talking about DeAndre Hopkins, we had so many people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two fastest receivers. Now you got a bunch of guys with the same build. DPJ, Cedric Tillman, Amari Cooper ain't beating nobody in no races like that. Now get right in, Amari Cooper is on a different level, we're not even gonna keep him out of it. But I told people, I said listen, if you


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you lose Amari Cooper, what does your room look like? He just had surgery in the off season. Well, G-boys, you can say that about any team. No, you can't. No, you can't. If the offense lose Tyreek Hill, guess what? They still got Jalen Watto.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are teams with great receivers from top to bottom and I'm looking at the Browns roster and I'm saying listen, we're projecting a lot. The only guy that has a track record of success is Amari Cooper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Elijah Moore, we love him, we think he's gonna be good, but the numbers don't bear it out yet. We look at DPJ, we love him, we like where he came from. Like you say, he got it out the mud in the trenches. We like guys like that. But still, he hasn't put on


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To a level where he's a number one, number two type receiver where he's gonna command coverage being rolled his way. People are not scared when DPJ goes out there. And then you got a bunch of other guys that question marks. David Bell, not very fast, I didn't see much from him last year. Anthony Schwartz, Marquise Goodwin, I love his attitude, love him as a player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I-I-I don't know. I don't feel good about the receiving room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're a six, G. Bush. I'm a six reason I'm a six because we see me. They talk about, oh, you might not know these names. Oh, we do know the names. You might not know the names. I saw him play all last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw David Bell do nothing last year. I've seen Anthony Schwartz do nothing for a couple years. Oh, and Harrison Bryant, you're just a name. I ain't seen nothing either. But Deshaun Watson wasn't throwing the ball. He wasn't throwing a rock to him. That's the thought process. But guess what? That don't make catch faster. The part that kills me with the Cleveland Browns is this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I watch other teams, and those other teams do this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two plays, three plays, score, touchdown, deep threats. They got a different type of offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's true. If I see that man on that bike on that sideline when he come back to Cleveland, you can do whatever they want to in West Virginia, whatever. Y'all playing golf and hanging out good, team building. But if you get back here and I see you on camp contracting over there on the sideline, I'ma be like, whoa, hey, what's going on? What are we doing here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got an issue, I got an issue with it. I had an issue with it. I wasn't even in it. I was in the chat. I looked at it and was like, man. Had you seen it before or no? Nah, like I was, I woke up. I hadn't seen it either. You said you seen my response. Yea, I seen it. I seen your responses. I was like, oh man, what y'all talking about over here? So I got into it late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But my thought process when I saw it was okay, well I expected the first part, but the second part where he says zero shame or he didn't learn, didn't learn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See there's, when you see these people going off in, in, you know, people going off in, in, in,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want my food or I'm not going to wear no mask. You see all these people losing, just losing their mind caught on tape. They gave me a parking ticket. I'm going to just yell at the cops. These people is out here going crazy bro. Calling the cops on people for selling water on the street.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's nice that you wrote this story, and we understand what you were trying to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you're not the story, young man. And you will never be the story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can choose whether or not we click on your story and be outraged. I choose to look at your story and say, it's just another dude trying to get a dollar. At the end of the day, what you're saying does not matter that much in the scheme of things. It's football season. And I've always tried to tell people,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a certain thing, the laws of power are this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes you have to elevate yourself above. And I can understand why Deshaun Watson is mad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because there's this thought process in this country where if you tried once by a group of people and you let go, then the thought process is you gotta prove yourself to each individual person and you gotta prove to them that you're rehabilitated. Well, I'm sorry, bro. Some of these writers need to understand this. He got $238 million. He's going to be rich forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a athlete who has access to a lot of people and women like him. You gotta be good, you gotta be cool with that. Because at the end of the day, that's the reality of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some people that's writing these stories, I don't know whether they feel they, they, they convert your signal enough that one day that they'll, listen, I'm okay with it. I'm not getting 238.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean Jay, he's not getting 238. Earl ain't getting, we, we okay with it. We, we like what we do. But if you're gonna sit up here and write these stories and you gonna virtue signal all the time and, and think you're gonna get people riled up, there's a whole lot of stuff that I'm, I'm, I'm upset about that happens in the news every single day. But then you know what y'all say? They say, gee bud, can't get mad about everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And by the way, and by the way, I think what he's talking about with the thing, and a lot of people at the time didn't want to say this, but it's been proven factual if you look at the court documents and cases. There are people that blatantly lie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The judge has already told three or four of these people, belatedly lied about why they wanted the money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They wanted money and they say, hey, he didn't do nothing to me, but I just wanted the money. Now, when you talk about presenting what you want to present, I think half of what Deshaun Watson is saying is, look, some of them could be credible at the end of the day and we'll go through the litigation on it. But at the end of the day, y'all gotta understand something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They made me, to him, I think they made him. And he feels he was made to apologize and to take


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every single time, for the rest of your life, and even though you know and was never convicted, you gotta wear that. And then every time something happens, they won't let you move on, and they continue to tell you, well how, how remorseful do we want them to look?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, if you throw seven touchdown passes after a game, are y'all gonna still want them to be remorseful? Well, you're laughing on the sideline with your teammates. Yeah, cause I threw seven touchdown passes. Well, I mean, it doesn't look like you're really remorseful. You gotta do something more for me individually. We're not doing that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm confused guys, I saw the, I saw the, I saw the graphic, but then it didn't come back the second time. What graphic?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It hurts. And then Jose had a terrible. Jose was a terrible


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of them starters, Jay, uhm, I've watched their faces, right? I've seen each individual, one of them, Bobby Allen Williams. They'll throw some pitch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And being fascinated, flabbergasted, why, why the batter didn't swing at it. They're like, hold on, what, what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tripway, they swinging at that. They are. Tripway, they, Tripway, they might chase out. It's called hit or discipline. And in major leagues, you either have it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or your Oscar Gonzalez. Yeah, these dudes be having six inches, they'll take that day. It was like, that was a great, it's demoralizing when you throw one of your best pitches, and you used to getting guys swinging at that, or you get, you blowing it past them, and instead of blowing it, they're not spitting on it. Now they're looking at it, nope, I'm gonna go take a deep breath now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jay, I'm looking at, I'm looking at it like this, and this is kind of crazy to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I look at it from a financial, I love marketing. I like what, you know, how teams manufacture money, manufacture, uhm, you know, just getting people interested in their product financially.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the reason I'm so enamored with it is because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is kind of out of nowhere. Like the guardians attendance, 19,000, 18,000. They have a good years, 23, 24,000. But these, I'm watching the games and there's people in the upper deck. It was great. The atmosphere Friday night was


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How, how, like, and this is for a 500 team. If they can consistently keep that many people in there for a 500 team, that means they should have some financial wherewithal to go get a couple players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are those, are those, them sellout seats, is that more, do you, do you see younger adults, younger singles?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are cheap tickets. So, so listen, it's placebo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would have, I would, I would have to go, I would have to just go see it. So you could say you were there. So I could be like, I saw the AFC championship game with the Cleveland Browns versus Kansas City Chiefs. But the game itself, of course.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if you, if I, if I had an opportunity to just, I would get a drone and walk around, because the AFC Championship game is at night, right? They're usually 3.30 and 6.30. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jay, I don't even know, I don't even remember what it feels like to have a home playoff game. I know, I know. Like if I got a home playoff game, like I would be just distraught. Like I wouldn't know what to do. Like I would be like, hey, they're


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was in my, I was in my old house. I was still married. And I remember my ex-wife knew nothing about basketball. I said, listen, I need you to go in there and knit a sweater. Do whatever you need to do. Stay away. Leave me. This back room didn't even have no AC.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jay, it was an old house, no AC. I was back there sitting Indian style, sweating. Man, what you talk about?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just still, I'm still just trying to give these Major League Baseball players bats. I wanna, I wanna, I wanna see how far, I wanna see them hit it out of the stadium.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It had to be 600 feet. I'm going to get one of these. I'm going to get Will Brennan. I'm like listen Will, I need, we going to set you up, we going to go, we going to be on the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't fumble. Don't fumble the bag? Don't fumble. Okay. Let's see what G-Bush gonna do. Let me go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, let's do this. Let's do this. I don't want to do too much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'ma go, I'ma be another wild card. This is another wild card. Now listen, y'all, y'all like athletes. Y'all got some great athletes, but like when I saw this man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Earl is faster than Bob Feller. What are you talking about? No, Bob Feller threw a hundred dollars an hour. Hey, hey, don't disrespect Bob like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean these- Who is it all? When I talk about athletes, I'm thinking about fast, strong, quick, all that. Athletes, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he was a better player than Jackie Robinson. I love the fact that he broke the color Barry and I love all that. I don't know how fast he was though. Barry was fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, I'm just saying, listen, I'm just ready to keep going. I got two more picks. Who's next?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you're right. You're right. He's the only guy on the list that got worse character than Josh Gordon. So like I'm just saying, and Josh Gordon was that deal. I'm just, he can't go to, he can't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the second best running back in Cleveland Brown's history. Now please put my total up there and let me show you how I'm working with this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he wins this poll, this is the last one we ever do. He's not gonna win it. He's not. Gee, you got one more, Gee. Oh, I got one more? I'ma just end it. Listen, cause here's the thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's go right back to the table. My team is an athlete. Look up the word athlete. I got the fastest. I got the strongest. I got the most athletic. Give me Miles Garrett. It's over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These guys got an offensive tackle blocking for him. How's that a, look at, I got, I got the dude that went to Berlin and looked at Hitler in the face like you ain't faster than me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So let me just tell you, the task was athletes, not career paths. I got athletes. London Fletcher, Miles Gaird is better than all your athletes. He lift the most, he jump the highest. Oh my goodness. London Fletcher versus Miles Gaird, stop playing with me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And listen, that one year was higher, that one year was higher than some of y'all's people's even. Josh Cribbs is a nice ball player, but if you talk about Josh Cribbs and Josh Gordon, we know who the better Josh is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love them to death. They're different. They're difference makers. They don't even have kick returns no more. Well they do, they just don't have kick returns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's a hip hop thing? Hip hop is based on...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Current. It's the music of the youth. So that's where the energy comes from. And then after you, you know, you know, you're telling the stories of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, poverty and things that go in the neighborhood, but you know, after a while, those people actually move out of the neighborhood. They became successful. They're good stories. And the culture is done with you. And the culture is like, okay, well, what's the next, what's the next, uh, story? Interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To give you a sample, Michael Jackson was famous from the time he was five to when he died. Yeah, yeah. Multiple eras. Uh, by the way, this is the most impressive thing. People will sing


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Billy Jean beat it all the above and freak out. Michael Jackson has been dead for how many years? Maybe 10? 15? And little kids that have never seen him sing live, never. They still gravitate and understand it. I don't know, it's timeless. And he's the only person I've ever seen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That could have grown foreign men passing out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I heard, I will say this, I saw this, and this is during, I think this is maybe two years ago, and it was the height of, you know, it was the pandemic, people were locked in, and she made, I think she made it a political stance. She was saying something about the administration at the time, and I remember watching her, her parents and her team be like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taylor, you can't, please do not do this. Like this is, this is like, you don't understand. It was like Michael Jordan. Yeah. It was like, you know, you cannot, you cannot say by sneakers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, he's like do not, do you know you're the biggest artist in the world and you just come off pretty nice to everybody. And look, Nicki Minaj ended her career almost, like you couldn't, like you couldn't, can't say nothing against Taylor Swift, she's too nice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The swing I threw on it was the fans and the people love splash moves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They want, they want splash. They want big. Big is better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, the, uh, Donovan Mitchell deal. When, when, now, it started to, to catch the clock a little bit earlier, but it was a big move and it made people say, see, sometimes when you give them a present or a gift, it makes you think that they really love you, right? Like, you could buy somebody


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so what I'm saying is, there's a lot of people who give the guardians the benefit of the doubt, which they do, do a lot with less. But there is a strategic part of the fan base that says, I don't like it. I need you to do more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who do you think, who do you think is the least liked owner in town?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's not even close by the way. And that's, and, and I think that's why they, they shade the guardians because they don't like the owner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who has the most to prove? Uhm, this is, this is, it was kind of tough if you take it without watching out. I'm gonna go with Jedrick Wills.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, there is something to be said when we go back and evaluate, right? If they don't sign Jedrick Wills to another contract and he's not the left tackle of the future, that goes down as a massive whiff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You drafted in them in the top ten, uh, and, and I think more than anybody, Jageret Wills has been handled with kid gloves like I've never seen in my life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we'll, we'll take Miles Garrett to task. We'll talk about Nick Chubb. Can't get his money next year because running backs are diminished. We already know what we say about Deshaun Watson. Like, Donovan Peoples-Jones, we've already told him, you're going to be on another team because you ain't good enough. But when it comes to Judge Rick Wilson, well, hold on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that's another thing, and then he gets the benefit of coming after Joe Thomas a little bit. So you think that you're judging him hard, very harsh, because, hey, he's not Joe Thomas, what are you looking for? Right? So we give him a benefit of doubt a little bit. But to me, that's a top 10 pick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And one of the things that we said, if you want to be a good organization, uh, when Perry, I went free, got in trouble. Somebody said, are you going to bring in a replacement? Are you going to bring in somebody at some point? The replacements have to be the guys you draft.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His instincts coming out of, see that can happen a little bit. Sometimes when you come out of college and you especially come out of a college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, that is, is competitive. Like, steel sharpens steel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you get out of there, and you young, you energetic, and the thing that they always teach you is make plays. You making plays or not, or you just in your gap. We don't need people just in that gap. We need playmakers.

[Assistant] And sometimes you can get into a league or you can get into a place where you start, you know, being under certain coaches and their philosophy change. Well, we're going to give up some of that stuff guys. It's okay. We'll rally and tackle. Nah, we need, we, we paying you like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You the top of the food chain, but really when you look at it, he's getting paid top 3 or 4.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and the production just doesn't seem to be there. Now, we've all, if he had production, we put up with the injury stuff, right? He's like, we always, we see, he gonna miss two, three games a year, but the production has to be there and I hope


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Under Schwartz, he lights that fire to say, come on, Denzel, you're getting paid like an elite playmaker. We need that. You said something there, G, that really, really

[Assistant] I went from playing in Camp McKill, we won two state championships. You're a perfect example of it. I get to OU and the first week I'm playing as a freshman and I look around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we are just getting destroyed. They beat us. I mean, they was beating us 41 to nothing. And I go to the sidelines, and the first thing I did is look at my coaches and be like, oh hell no, this ain't gonna work. This not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because they had that blank stare like we've already punted. We ready to go to on the next week. We're going to burn this tape. Nobody was angry. Nobody was upset. Yeah, that's the culture and it can't McKinley that wouldn't have flow. I mean you one guy makes one bad play. He's on the bench. Like you got, you know, you play with all Americans. You just trying to survive at that point. And then when I went there and saw the difference,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said, oh, this is going to be a problem. And you automatically knew that there was levels to it. And it was the first time when people say they become demoralized, I was shook to the core because I said, you don't put this amount of work in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just to go out there and get beat and hang out. But they had been losing for so many years. The mentality wasn't even, it wasn't even, it was, there was no culture of winning. So I'm afraid when I see stuff like that, you can look at Jeff Okuda. You can look at guys that played in the secondary at Ohio State.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You go from Ohio state where Alabama and Georgia, that's the key in Michigan. We not, we don't respect no Mac teams. We don't respect no Sunbelt teams. And then you get to Cleveland and then you start losing to the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It feels like a bull. And that's why, that's why I've been, I've been pounding the concrete to people to say all the time, well, come on, you know, guys are good, just go ahead and chill. I said, there's no chilling this off season. There's none. You wasted the chill last year. Just done. Like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta think about it, man. We waited through, we waited through 0 and 16, 1 and 15, right? To get Baker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did that to get Nick Chubb. We did that to get Miles Garrett. We did that to get Denzel Ward. Well, let's start to see some fruit. Those picks, those picks are all guys that we drafted from being the terrible, most worst team in the league. Baker's gone. We just talked about Denzel Ward.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the Browns aren't good this year, they're definitely looking to move and say, hey, uh, let's look at what we get for Jalen Ramsey. Can we get off this contract? Miles Garrett is the only person that you have left on your roster that can bring you back any draft capital. They'd probably move him and listen to three or four teams if they wanted to give up number one place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's, there's, there's the best of both worlds. It's the world where, it's heaven and the world where it's hell. Think about this concept.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if the players we do have on the roster are even better than we thought because they had a quarterback?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, he's got everything to prove. And I think one of the main storylines we're going to talk about all, like, now that the season has started, the biggest question is, how much are they going to play in the preseason? Because to me, that's no longer dismissible, right? They literally have to look at


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright guys, I know we don't want to do it with injuries. Andy Reid does it. Andy Reid plays his players. And they cannot afford.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go ahead, G. I, I, I think I, I like it. Uhm, we've done that before. We have? Well, we, I've done that before in my playing career and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, it's different. Like, there's something to be said for you being secluded. So, you know, we, in, in college, we, you got your own apartment and houses. They would take us somewhere far off campus and we, we'd have to basically, like, walk back and forth a long way. We would be having meetings and it would be all away from the normal stuff, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You couldn't have a car, like they take your car keys and you're just there. Like you can't move, you're not going off campus, you can't eat nothing. And what it does, it makes you focus because the only thing that's there


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only voice that's there is the teammate's voice, the coach's voice, and trying to learn stuff. And you're in this silo. And I remember, you know, going to a remote place in high school, like, called Edinburgh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Edinburgh, Pennsylvania is a small little school. We went to a camp and our team in 1997, we won the national championships in 98. They're like, listen, you go to all these nice camps like just go to Ohio State or let's go to like team camps. And they're like, no, we're going to Edinburgh because we had a new coach at the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he was taken over from a coach that won a national championship. That's like a hall of fame coach. So now it's like, well, I got to put my imprint on it. I got to put my stamp on it. And he took us to Edinburgh and it was dry. It was dusty. It was hot. And we're just there with these other teams. And I just remember.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, thinking about, man, the only thing that was mattering at that time, not girlfriends, not nothing, was the fact that you was there trying to figure out how to get through this like, this tough period of time. And what happened was, when we got back and started doing Two Days and stuff,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It gave us this, this little sense of security. You know, bulls talk about their son as being off and doing different things and shooting archers and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He'll come back and he'll have 5, 10 years of experience. He'll feel like, wow, he's kind of mature because it's something to be said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why people go camping and go to retreats is to find that inner thing. So I love it. I love the fact that they're telling those and they're signifying, guys, this is important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you want to be what you want to be, Miles Garrett or Deshaun Washington, you want your career back and Nick Chubb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You want to get into playoffs and Joe Petonio don't be like Joe Thomas. That's what they telling them.
