| 0:00.0 | All right. We're going to get to the wings at 3 o'clock, not because I want to, but because we have to, and I have a question for Kenny. |
| 0:05.5 | It'll be simple. Hey, Kenny, how about those phones? Okay, you don't, you're not hallucinating people. I know normally the lines are full. We can't take your call currently. why I don't know I don't care anymore so we'll get some text but we are talking about the |
| 0:22.0 | Ragnow thing and again I understand both sides of why I don't know I don't care anymore so we'll get some texts but we are talking about the |
| 0:22.0 | rag now thing and again I understand both sides of it the lines have done this before it doesn't make |
| 0:27.5 | it right they did it to Barry they did it to Calvin they're doing it to rag now they want to |
| 0:31.7 | they want part of a signing bonus money back I think it's just it's it's small-timey but is it they're right to do it yes it is I just think it's just, it's small-timey. But is it their right to do it? Yes, it is. I just think |
| 0:41.5 | it's crap. And again, players are only Jason Kelsey. Now again, if I had enough of |
| 0:46.2 | to Kelsey brothers, yes, but he dropped a bomb on the lions. I'm not going to read all 8,000 words. |
| 0:52.7 | Alex Anzolone, am I happy he's gone? Yeah, it was time. But he was a team leader. And guess what? He's shredding the team. It's not a good look. That's all. Now, does everyone feel that way? No. But it's just not something I'm going to yell about. I think you put it best. You go to the bar, you buy a drink. It's $9.50. |
| 1:11.5 | You hand the guy a 10 and you sit there and demand your two quarters back. That's what the $3 million is in today's NFL salary cap world. It's 1% of the cap. If they needed the $3 million to sign someone, which, who are we kidding? They don't sign anyone. But if they needed the $3 million, when you restructured Gough's deal, you don't leave $13 million in the register. You leave $10. It was right there for you. It's small time. But it's a policy they have. That's the problem. Right. But you also, and it's more policy than being practical. And that's why I'm like, this is a bad look. |
| 1:44.6 | You're doing this because it's been done this way, but then you want to tell people you're |
| 1:49.7 | not the same lions. |
| 1:51.1 | Well, actually, you kind of are because you're doing things the way that you have because |
| 1:54.9 | this is simply, you went to battle for us. |
| 1:58.7 | You played so many times injured for us. |
| 2:01.3 | Just think of it as a reward. We appreciate your service. Keep the money. Right. And here's a Honolulu Blue Jacket for, you know, alumni day. But they don't do that. Right. Now, if I'm Ragnow, does that affect? Again, if he's in his feelings about it, I leave that then. I mean, that's why Calvin was like, you want me to come back and do what? |
| 2:19.1 | Yeah, good luck with that. |
| 2:20.8 | Kenny, to, Again, if he's in his feelings about it, I leave that. I mean, that's why Calvin was like, you want me to come back and do what? |
| 2:19.1 | Yeah, good luck with that. |
| 2:20.8 | Kenny, what's going on? |
| 2:22.7 | No, text to communications. |
| 2:24.5 | I could not disagree with everybody more. |
