| 0:00.0 | There you go. There you go. Nailed. The nothing personal word of the day that I've been waiting |
| 0:11.3 | for. Nailed. As in he got nailed. Who am I talking about on a random Friday in the middle |
| 0:21.3 | of August 2020? There's a player for the Seattle Seahawks who was just waived as in released |
| 0:30.9 | yesterday. His name is Kima Sivaran, but who cares? He was waived. He's a rookie cornerback |
| 0:37.7 | who cares? He was waived because earlier this week he got caught sneaking a woman into |
| 0:48.9 | the Seahawks bubble team hotel. So the Seahawks catch him, sneaking someone in. They then |
| 0:59.0 | release him. And here's the best part of the story before we talk about what happened |
| 1:05.1 | and what I would do in that situation. He dressed her up in Seahawks garb trying to |
| 1:15.3 | pass this campy truco. I'm not going with this. I changed my mind. I'm not going with the fact that |
| 1:22.6 | there are reports that this player tried to pass off this woman as a player for the Seahawks by putting |

| 1:54.1 | had snuck in someone into the bubble? Would he get released? Or did they just release him because |
| 1:59.5 | he's stunk? I told you you guys know that it's a tough position. If you're going to be consistent, |
| 2:04.7 | if you're going to catch someone, you've got to punish them as though they were the starter or |
| 2:08.7 | whether they are the 50th man on your roster. But is he the only person who has snuck someone into |
| 2:15.9 | a team hotel in the NFL? Of course not. He's just the first person who has gotten caught so far. |
| 2:23.5 | So here's how the conversation must have gone when they call them into the office. Because you can |
| 2:29.0 | deny that you've got side beef coming into the bubble all you want and players will deny that |
| 2:35.8 | left, right and center. But with all of the cameras now, it's really much harder to deny when they've |
| 2:43.3 | got a camera not just of this woman coming into the hotel but coming off the elevator going down |
