| 0:19.0 | Your listening to Fox Sports Radio. I talked about this to start the show, but we got a verdict in the Derek Chauvin case. This is something that would have likely impacted sports in a big way. If the verdict had not been guilty of all of the counts there. |
| 0:42.0 | And I talked about this in the first hour. I did not watch this trial in earnest, right? And so I'm not going to put my lawyer hat on and analyze the individual aspects of the case because I did not watch the prosecution entirely. |
| 1:01.0 | I did not watch the defense attorneys entirely. I did not follow this case in a in a really vigorous or rigorous fashion. And so I think it's unfair if you don't watch everything to come on and have some strong opinion about exactly what was said in the courtroom. This is me speaking as a lawyer, not as a person who is out there just watching the trial. |
| 1:23.0 | But I will say this and I think it's important to say this right off the top. The goal of the American judicial system. And I think I speak for many lawyers out there. |
| 1:33.0 | Hopefully almost all lawyers out there is for the American judicial system to treat everyone the exact same regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, sexuality, any identifying characteristic that often gets becomes a major flashpoint in today's identity politics, |
| 1:49.0 | and I believe that we are every single day, but coming more likely to do that. And I understand that there are a lot of people out there obsessed on social media. |
| 2:03.0 | And they want to tell you that the American judicial system can't be trusted and that juries can't be trusted and that judges can't be trusted and the lawyers can't be trusted. And I'm here to tell you that the reason why the American judicial system is the envy of the entire world is not because we're perfect because we're not because we are created by man and anything that's created by man is going to be imperfect. |
| 2:24.0 | But because we are consistently striving to get better the American judicial system is better now than it was in the 1800s. It's better now than it was in the 1900s. I believe that the American judicial system is getting better at treating everybody the same regardless of their background, which should be the goal of the American judicial system. |
| 2:47.0 | So without diving into all the particulars of the Derek Chauvin case, I do believe that the history of the American judicial system bends towards justice and bends towards righteousness, regardless of your race, your gender, your ethnicity, your religion. |
| 3:05.0 | I will disagree with that as a lawyer, I believe that I have seen the court system and how it works. And I believe that is the case. I am optimistic on the future of the American judicial system, not pessimistic. |
| 3:19.0 | Putting that aside, much less serious news and we have been focusing most of the show on much less serious news. I wanted to hit you with this fact as we finished off the second hour of the program I was talking about wide receivers and the difference between a first and a second round wide receiver in the larger universe of the NFL draft. |
| 3:42.0 | And basically we've reached the era at least over the last five years we have 2014, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 draft six years. Which would you pick? These are the best first round wide receivers Calvin Ridley, DJ Moore, Mike Evans, Amari Cooper, Corey Davis, Brandon Cooks, Marquis Brown, Odell Beckham Jr. |
| 4:05.0 | Those are roughly the eight best wide receivers drafted in the first round, about the second round Devonte Adams, AJ Brown, DK Metcalf, Michael Thomas, Alan Robinson, Debo Samuel, Ju Jusmith Schuster, Jarvis Landry. I don't know about you. |
| 4:22.0 | I'd rather have the second round wide receivers over the last six years of the draft at wide receiver than I would the first rounders. Is that going to be the case this year? I don't know, but I think it's something worth keeping in the back of your mind. |
| 4:38.0 | Chase Devonte Smith and Jalen Waddle seem to be considered to be on a completely different level than every other wide receiver in the NFL, but historically over the last five, six years, you've been just as good trading back and taking wide receivers later in the second round. Then you have been taking them right off the top in the first round. |
| 4:58.0 | All right, we are going to be joined now. I believe we've got them. Dub, do we have them? We got them. Well, we got a time to get into, but I want to start here with you. This Dishon Watson defense. |
| 5:10.0 | You are a Texas train warrior. You're familiar with Rusty Harden, Tony Busby, but even more than that, like the larger than life personas that some of these Texas lawyers can adopt. I think it's fair to say that both of these guys fit that perspective. |
| 5:29.0 | I am just stunned that Dishon Watson's defense seems to be in this case that 22 different women are lying and he didn't do anything remotely inappropriate. |
| 5:43.0 | Are you kind of stunned that he's paying and he's basically calling these women liars, not basically he is, which as you well know, it makes it even harder to maybe one day settle this case because some of these women and their families are going to say, wait a minute. |
| 5:57.0 | Why would we take money from Dishon Watson after he called us liars? Like this thing just keeps getting ratcheted up. It seems like to another level every single week. |
| 6:09.0 | Yes, that certainly poisons the water for any potential settlement, but I've been making it up this clay and their box stand there in a rock in a hard place. |
