couple of local football housekeeping items just to get us started here before we get into the audio. So we pitied standout giant Brian Burns yesterday and that awful record he's been subjected to with his time between the Giants and the Panthers. Well, he was named a Pro Bowl starter, whatever that means these days for his work, Pro Bowl games. He's the only one. There's no Jets. So Burns is the lone Giants representative, I would say, a worthy selection. Yes. Meantime.

With the Jets, you did mention

Justin Fields

placed only one. There's no Jets. So Burns is the lone Giants representative, I would say, a worthy selection. Yes. Meantime with the Jets, you did mention Justin Fields placed on IR with that knee soreness that popped up when he lost his starting job back in mid-November. So he's done for the year and could be one and done with the Jets. I know he's got the guaranteed money, but they could spread that out over two years if they want to move on from him. So that obviously was a failed situation as they brought him aboard and it did not quite work out. So we'll see what they choose to do in terms of the cap purposes for 2026 and beyond. Now, back to the Giants. So we had that Mike Kafka behind the scenes audio from in-season hard knocks, whatever it was a week or two ago. There was F-bombing the players? Yeah, it seemed like forced. It didn't come across great. Maybe that's unfair since we don't know the man. Flipside to that, I give you interim defensive coordinator Charlie Bullen, taking some time to acknowledge rookie Abdul Carter in front of his teammates during a defensive team meeting. And I just want to point out Abdul for a second. If Abdul played your ass off the other day.

Played your ass off. in front of his teammates during a defensive team meeting. And I just want to point out that Duel for a second.

A Duel played your ass off the other day.

Played your ass off.

Played your ass off, make game-changing impact plays that you are capable of making

and that we would expect from you.

That's well done.

All right, and I'm proud of that.

But that's what's expected. Now, he wasn't getting the results,

at least statistically earlier in the season, and that led to some of the, you know, the negative

publicity with whatever went down in terms of him attending meetings and being on time, and they

had the short-term in-game benchings and some negative media attention for the rookie, which

was addressed here. There was some public embarrassment that went with that. What I look at as a coach and a man

is how you respond, okay? He reached out to me and said, coach, I'm coming in at 7.30 from

all along. Can we get a plan together? Obviously, the answer is yes, okay? But that was back

against the wall, adversity adversity how do you respond

do you like that this stuff
