Final hour, Felger and Mass will just reset it to two quick things and then go back to your phones.

The first is a little intel we got on Jimmy Garoppola, or at least Jimmy Stewart did in his phone, that basically in a nutshell that Jimmy Garoppolo was negotiating with the Patriots prior to the draft to facilitate a trade and Jimmy Garoppel would not take a pay cut to return to New England.

In fact, he's not taking a pay cut anywhere.

He does not want to take a pay cut from his $25 million salary, even though it's not guaranteed.

And San Fran can cut him next week or a week before the season and pay him not a dime.

At this time, Jimmy is not willing to renegotiate his contract down for you or apparently

anyone, but most notably you.

In fact, Jimmy Stewart came to learn that the Patriots were offering him 16 for next year,

down from 25, which I, by the way, think is a totally reasonable offer. I think that's what Jimmy Garoppel should be at. When Jimmy asked us, he set us up off the air. It was very late in the show yesterday. That's why we didn't get to it yesterday. But he said to us off the air in our headset, what's a fair price for Garoppel this year? And I said 10 to 15. And I said 15. He came in my little studio here, so I was only off by a mill. Yeah.

Fitzpatrick and Andy Dalton signed for 10 million. Okay. And I think Jimmy Garoppel is above those guys. But, you know, a questionable starter, right? Diminishing asset because of the injuries, if nothing else. Sure. A bridge starter, a holdover veteran, like that kind of guy. So call it 15.

Good good. right like a diminishing asset because of the injuries if nothing else sure a bridge starter uh holdover veteran like that kind of guy so called 15 good good guess murray the pat's offered 16 and he

rejected it and that blew up the trade that's what we have been led to believe so you could have

had garoppolo not mac jones meaning the new tom brady uh if jimby g Grop was willing to play ball in his contract,

which he wasn't.

So that's one item. Did you have a thought before I go on the next thing? No, no, no. Keep going. So the other one was the events of the Tom Wilson thing, which is not really a local story, but it's just interesting. Tom Wilson does not get punished, really. got a $5,000 fine for ragdolling a couple New York Rangers and a scrum next to the net.

Both skill guys, little guys, at least Antares. get punished, really. You got a $5,000 fine for ragdolling a couple New York Rangers and a scrum next to the
