| 0:00.0 | This was the headline in yesterday's Athletic, the look at why and how the Eagles fell apart so quickly. |
| 0:09.0 | 4,312 words. If you read every one of them, I'll send you a T-shirt. As I said last night, |
| 0:16.1 | my guess is far fewer than 4,312 people read all 4,312 words. I don't want to get into a rant here about |
| 0:22.9 | these long reads, but folks, nobody reads all of them. No one is reading all of them. Not even the |
| 0:27.9 | mothers of the writers are reading every single word. I don't know why there's all the fluff and all |
| 0:33.7 | the filler and why it has to be this grandiose sweeping thing to get people to take it |
| 0:38.9 | seriously. We take it seriously based on what's in it, not how many words are in it. Am I wrong, Chris? No, I mean, listen, I'm with you. I mean, it's just, didn't you just write a book, though? Didn't you just do something like that where you're talking about it? That's different. Okay. |
| 0:52.1 | I'm not, yeah, yeah, I did two actually during the pandemic, but that's different okay i'm not yeah yeah i i did two actually during the |

| 1:07.7 | this is the common reaction the human reaction there is part of me that is still human. You read the first five or six paragraphs, and then you start scroll, |
| 1:14.5 | scroll, scroll, scroll, looking for something. Well, you stop with that. Scroll, scroll, scroll, |
| 1:19.0 | and stuff jumps out. Quarterback of the future. Can, listen, all right, thank you. So, |
| 1:26.7 | they're trying to figure out what went wrong with the Eagles. |
| 1:29.8 | Yes. |
| 1:30.5 | And like anything else, when dysfunction descends on a team, the fingerprints are from everyone. |
| 1:37.0 | It isn't just one person that all of a sudden went haywire and everybody else sat back and said, |
| 1:42.9 | gee, I wonder what's going on. |
| 1:44.9 | Everyone's involved. |
| 1:46.1 | Everyone's to blame. |
| 1:47.7 | And if you read all of it or some of it like I did, you'll come to the conclusion that everyone's to blame. |
| 1:52.2 | But one of the big takeaways is they never really treated Doug Peterson reportedly with respect. |
