Hour 2 - Scottie Pippen Has Beef with Michael Jordan + Former NFL Executive of the Year Randy Mueller

Published May 27, 2023, 2:13 AM

FOX Sports Radio Weekend host Ephraim Salaam is in for Rob, and he and Chris explain why they believe it’s clear that Scottie Pippen’s critiques of Michael Jordan as a player stem from a personal vendetta with his former teammate and tell us why they wish LeBron James had benefitted from playing a system the same way MJ did. Later, the Odd Couple Crew debates the merits of streaming service password sharing in this week’s edition of Shop Talk. Plus, former NFL Executive of the Year and FOX Sports Radio NFL analyst Randy Mueller swings by to discuss what’s next for DeAndre Hopkins now that he’s hit free agency, why he expects the Arizona Cardinals to be one of the worst teams in the NFL next season, Lamar Jackson’s plan to throw more and run less in Baltimore and much more!

Because Scottie Pip is at it again.

And I'm gonna say I'm gonna say something after his comments. Quickly, I'm gonna let you from go and then I got something to say.

But I do want to just.

Say a little something after Scotty's comments that he made to Stacey King.

Now Scotty, of course.

Has six championships with Michael Jordan. Stacey King has three championships with Michael Jordan.

The first repeat.

And here's what Scottie Pippen said when talking asked about the goat.

Lebron the greatest partisical guy to ever play the game of basketball, and there's no comparison to him none. So does that make him the greatest player to ever play the game? I leave that out for debatings because I don't believe that there's a great player because our game is a team game and one player can't do it. Like I've seen Michael Jordan play before I came to play with the Bulls. You got seen him play. He's a horrible player. He was horrible to play with. He was all one on one, He's shooting bad shot, and all of a sudden we become a team and we start winning. Everybody forgot who he was.

All right, First, this is what I want to say, and then I'll let you go even.

Scotty.

First, Scotty's all over the place. Scotty has said Jordan's the goat. Well, he said Lebron's the goat. Then he says Jordan's the goat. Then he's flip flopped again, and now this all right, Scotty.

The first time he said.

That Lebron was the goat, I asked him the question, or it wasn't even the goat, it was is Isy better than Jordan?

It was on Mike and Mike.

I was co hosting Mike and Mike in the Morning back at ESPN, and I had talked to Scott. He had been doing some stuff for ESPN, and I had talked to him in the halls and I had asked him about the top players and stuff, and he said something that made me question, really made me feel like, you know what, he don't think Mike's the goat. I don't even think we're using goat term. I don't even know at that time, right, this was years ago. And I said, but I was like, I don't think he thinks Mike's the best. And so we had him on Mike and Mike a couple days later or a week later whatever on the air. He was on the phone and I asked him, is Lebron better than Michael Jordan? And that's when he said he was He's a better all around player. I think he said he's a better player than Mike, and then of course he got flack.

I'm sure Mike called him Ryan Harper.

They all got in his ear and next thing you know, he's talking about Jordan being the goat and he's flip flopped several times this though.

He's bitter. He's bitter you right.

Remember after the last Dancey came out with something hating on Jordan his book, and now you actually have the audacity. I don't know if he misspoke. He's that he was a horrible player. It's one thing that if he had said he was horrible to play with, I would disagree with that. But if you felt like he's taking all the shots, you know, you know he shot at a high efficiency rate, but he's taking all the shots. Okay, you didn't like playing with him, to say horrible player, and then they forgot who he was, like.

Oh he was still he was.

Horrible and people overrated him when he started winning.

I got my thoughts. I'm gonna let you go, though.

First I just wanted to say that Scotty is out there.

You also have to remember during the flip flop he said he was the goat as well.

Yeah you left that, yes, yes, please?

So it within one of those him you Mia, it was it was a me in there for Scotty. Scotty's coming from a perspective of a player, another dynamic great player who joins a great player and they accomplish something together and he doesn't get any of the credit.

Right. It's when you marry up.

Right, you got the money, but your wife looks better than you, and she gets all the attention and you get You get the attention, she gets the attention.

You feel a certain type of way.

She got the money though, right, well, now you got a little bit of money. She got all the money, and it's fine. You got a little bit of money, and you okay.

Now you're holding the purse on the red carpet, Scott. He's tired of holding the purse on the red carpet. So you also got to look at what's going on in this personal life, right, the ex wife dating Michael Jordan's son like.

This, you can't feel good. This is deep, brother, that can't feel good. There for a second. We ain't got to go too deep in it.

If you're if my daughter, or listen, if my wife, if I mean we're still married, but my wife was dating.

Rob My boys, Rob Parkerson or my daughter was dating Rob.

I'm salty, I'm sorry, I'm upset. Y'all gotta fight, y'all gonna fight every day. We're gonna fight every day.

So Scotty's all over the place because life right now is all over the place. He's dealing with He's dealing with a lot of things, right. And you know, when you're dealing with personal matters, your own self worth, what you meant in your career, what others perceive you as being, and now with the personal aspect of it, brother, that's enough to drive you crazy. That's enough to make you flip flop. That's enough to make you pull at straws and strings trying to find your footing.

And that's what we're seeing.

Look in some aspect, Scotty Pippen is all wrong because the simple fact that before Scottie Pippen got there, Michael Jordan was a dynamic player. I'm not gonna agree with him that he was terrible. He may have been a terrible teammate, because Michael was about that life right. I'm going to get this. If y'all not coming, y'all not coming right. But then you get somebody with the talent and the ability to match your your yourr vibrato, to match your energy, to match your style of He didn't do all that though, No, Scotty was a defensive fiscionado. So him and Jordan at the top of the key. Brother, you remember what he did to Mark Jackson. You remember what Scotty pip Mark Jackson Johnson? Right, So when you have somebody of that caliber who can also score thirty scott Now, yeah.

What Scotty never averaged more than twenty three points? Again, I said, who can score thirty occasionally?

Who could score thirty? Okay? Right, So if Jordan has thirty three and Scotty has thirty two, like Dad Rarity, Scotty wasn't a huge scorer.

Hey, many His career high was twenty two points a game, and that was when Mike wasn't there.

Scottie Pippen was a dynamic long wing. Yeah, likes we had seen before, with the speed of a smaller.

Defense a little much.

Clyde Drexler was a better defender then saying he was a ball.

You gotta listen to what I'm saying.

But you gotta listen to what I'm saying though, right, you just jumping in with names, right. I was talking about his defensive prowess, his speed, how he could change the game, and you throw out Clyde Drexler. Okay, well was better than offensively, yes, because he was a number one on the team.

If I just started a team, I'm taking Clyde Drexel over to Scotty Pippen.

So if you're starting the team, you're taking Michael Jordan and Clyde Drexler.

Yes, they would have been ridiculous.

Yeah, but I'm not gonna do that because I'm gonna take Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen because now I know I can lock down the backcourt.

Done me, That's all right.

Let me give you my take on Scotty Pippen is a great player. I don't want to take anything away from him being an all time great player, no question. And he and Jordans are clearly the best perimeter duo ever, and if you just go by success, the best duo period. Here's the thing, though, and I have always felt that this isn't new, This isn't based on Scotty going overboard, way overboard with his comments. I have felt this way since I was watching the Bulls play.

When Scotty entered the league.

We know he came from the University of Central Arkansas, right, we know he was a late bloomer. We know nobody knew about him when he was drafted, and he was raw. When I watched Scotty, Scotty Pippen averaged seven points as a rookie.

He averaged fourteen his second year.

Sixteen is third And when I remember watching Scotty Pippin and saying to myself, as he grew.

And got better and better and better, this.

Dude is kind of mimicking Michael Jordan's game, like he's learning.

I could see him learning from Jordan.

And if you talk to people in that organization who were there at that time, they say Scotty learned like how to work hard from Mike. He learned how to be a professional from Mike. You know he and he obviously his game got incredible. But I think, I honestly believe if Scotty doesn't go to the Bulls and he goes somewhere else, I don't think he becomes.

What he did.

And I also believe that had any other real good, talented wing player gone to Chicago, they Now I'm not saying they would have been the defender that Scotty was, He's all time great defender, but.

They could have been.

They would have blossomed and developed as well, and I think they still would have won titles.

So I can't find a big argument in that what you're saying. But what I think you're doing is you're looking at that duo defensively like you're looking maybe like in today's NBA, but back then, the way they played, the dway Scottie Pippen played defense, the physicality of him playing defense.

Well, no, he was awesome, and Jordan too, Both of them were.

I don't know if you supplement any other player right there and they'll be able to give you that defense and the offense that Scottie Pippen was able to do. For Michael Jordan to win those championships like you do, I don't. I don't know who that player would be.

Well, let's take Drexler for example.

Yes, Drexler would give you, would not give you as good a defense, but I tell you this, with Jordan as a teammate, his defense would have been better because he Jordan would have been on him, like, look, we gotta play this defense, and Scottie.

Pitt has some blyd Drexler an alpha as well.

He wasn't an outpha like Mike on his team. I think Clyde would on the.

Team he was, but he wasn't. He wasn't quite like Mike.

Nobody Mike. I mean it's a one of one. Michael Jordan is a one of one, so nobody would be Mike. But what I'm saying is.

I say Kobe was there with Mike. That's one Drexler would have.

He I think, like I talked to Clyde about this is years after they retired, but he was like, look, I wanted Portland to draft Michael.

Remember that was the whole big thing.

They draft that Sam Pooie because they were like in which at that time, you get Bowie was seven forty, were supposed to be great.

He was good in college when he was healthy, and.

You had Drexler right, You're like, we got a great wing player, but.

We got it out like we haven't and Mike can.

Play together and they went in a different direction. But don't forget Scotty had some bad playoff games, scoring the ball seven points a few times, two points. Remember that game seven that they lost to Detroit, and now he had a migraine. I'll give him that, But he played forty two minutes one for ten two points. He had thirteen point games, eleven point games, fourteen point playoff games, and Mike went for forty.

So my point is this, because I agree.

I don't think Clyde would have been the defender that Scotty was, so I think he could have got close, but he would have been much better offensively because he could have run the team because Scott, remember was a point forward. Drexon could have done that and he was giving you more points.

Well, at this point we'd have to say the old saying, if it was the fifth, we'd all be drunk, because if we can go back and hard.

Can we rido Scotti? Like you said, horrible? Really he's last.

I don't. I don't. Yeah, he's last. I mean that's that's that's that's the pain. Yeah, that's the pain. He's We hurt people, hurt people right right right now.

Let me say this for those because we got some youngins listening that are like, oh, they digging into the digging into the archives now, trying to look for reasons that oh, You're gonna see some memes out there about how why Lebron's better than Jordan because Jordan was horrible for the first three years of his career.

Let me let me just school y'all.

Michael Jordan's stepped into the league from.

Day one on a team that everyone.

Knows what's drug riddled, okay, right, gave him twenty eight points, six assists, six.

And a half rebounds.

And here's the key on fifty one percent shooting from the field. Now you know he from you played, especially back in the day when the three point wasn't is prominent. Fifty point shooting is fifty percent shooting.

Is what you shot for, right, Yeah, you weren't.

That's the starficient, right, That's that's what you wanted.

And the next then he got hurt.

The next year, third year after the year before Scotty got there, Jordan was thirty seven points, five rebounds and four and a half assists on forty.

Eight Yeah, thirty seven, oh, thirty eight percent shooting. Guard. That's not that's not an awful player.

What that is is someone who may not necessarily been a team player. He doesn't he doesn't trust the team because of the team, the talent on the team, so he's going into it like yo, I got up busy, y'all come sit the screen and y'all get on about the way.

Now I'm gonna do my thing.

He and did it efficiently though. To me, that's why Kobe. Here's the context. He shot forty eight percent that year, which is good for a guard. Kobe never ever in his career shot even forty seven percent. Kobe never shot better than forty six percent. And remember that's what eight years of shack drawing double and triple teams at times. So Jordan had a bunch of dudes that weren't drawing any attention defensively went for thirty seven a night on forty eight percent shooting.

And when when when Scotty.

Was a rookie he averaged thirty five on fifty three percent shooting. Pipp it wasn't helping him out with his little seven points a game.

We been ripping Pippin, but I'm gonna go the thing he said. He talked about the system that obviously Phil Jackson kind of installed. Now, look, Doug Collins had coached them within a whisker of the NBA Championship. I do think if Collins had stayed there, they would have won. Championships. I don't know about six, but they would have won some championships. But Phil Jackson obviously got Mike to play in the triangle, which Mike didn't want to do initially, and obviously the rest is history. But e from I had a former NBA player who was a champion tell me this was maybe eight to ten years ago. He said if because he was saying that Lebron's ball dominance and Lebron being the system versus fitting into a system hindered his teammates and his ability to win championships and be cause he was like, look, when your star has you know, plays a certain way and has a role, everybody else knows their.

Role and they're more comfortable in it.

And so he was like, if Lebron be said, I'm gonna be magic and average twenty five points and twelve assists, or I'm gonna be a typical small forward and lead the league in scoring thirty five points and nine rebounds ten rebounds a game, he said, Now, he just threw this number out, but he was like, Lebron would have won eight championships by now, and so I do think like I like the way Lebron has played now. I know a lot of it's out of age and he's not quite what he used to be, But overall I do like him fitting in and being more a part of the system than just dominating every possession.

So what are your thoughts on that. I think being in.

A system and playing five man basketball, which Jordan did with the triangle, is more effective than man a one man show, because Jordan was a one man show early.

In his career and couldn't win.

Lebron, Jordan, will Oscar, whoever you want a name, couldn't win it as a one man show.

It takes a team. Jerry West, well, he had Elgin, but yeah, I am, But you're right. And that's why coaching is paramount.

We see it play out in every sport across you know sports. When you get into the playoffs, you gotta be able to make adjustments. You gotta be able to put your team in a position to take advantage of a weakness of another time. And players can't necessarily see at all. They can't see a ten thousand foot view because they're in it. They're on the ground, they're in the war, and a coach can step back and look at things separately and they collectively put them together, which is why you look at Phil Jackson, Popovich, Spolstra. These are some of the greatest coaches to ever play like. They've mastered that. They've mastered a system where everybody buys in, knows what they're supposed to do, and executes it, which is a difficult thing to do in today's NBA, without a doubt, very difficult to We'll.

Talk, there's no question about that. All right. Look, we're gonna move on quickly to the NFL.

Randy Mueller, former NFL Executive of the Year, Fox Sports Radio NFL analysts, will join us in the moment.

All right, thank you, Steve, it's the I Couple. Chris Bruce Aardi from salam is.

In for Rob Parker.

Next guest is a friend of the show, former NFL Executive of the Year, Fox Sports Radio NFL analysts. He got theme music too, y'all. Just handing it out, y'all, just handing it out. Okay, I see what's going on.

But he picked this.

I thought he was gonna pick like Fleetwood, Mac or something, which would have been dope everybody.

He picked this. Sorry man, Randy Muller, Randy, what's up?

What's going on? Guys? Why? Man? Come on? Get with.

I know, I know, I learned my lesson. I learned my lesson.

All right, Randy, let's get to We were just talking about DeAndre Hopkins and where you know he might end up, where he should go, who should go after him, so on and so forth, and we brought up Buffalo because he mentioned a few quarterbacks he'd liked to play with, Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts, Justin Herbert. I just want to focus on Buffalo, not just from the DeAndre standpoint. But you can throw that in your answers. Well, A lot of people seem to think. They won't say the window is closed, but they feel like Buffalo has kind of step taken a step back or is not where it was a few years ago and kind of missed its best opportunity to win a Super Bowl at least in the next year or two.

Do you agree with that assessment?

And then do you think they should to try to maybe fix that.

If you do agree, should.

They go out and get a DeAndre Hopkins to really have a powerful offense.

Well, there's definitely a lot to unpacked there, Chris, I would say this, DeAndre Hopkins has good taste. If those are the teams he's considering, Yeah, that's the high rent district in the NFL, So I like what he's thinking. I do not think that Buffalo's window is closing. I do say this, They've given a couple opportunities back, and that's hard to recalculate when you do that. You see that in basketball, you see it in all sports, when you don't come through when the timing is right. There's no guarantee. But I do think Buffalo is gonna be okay. I think the defense now is totally in the light of the head coach. He will take over that defense. I think they will be a little more aggressive. I don't think Josh Allen is going to take a step back. Getting Dalton Kate in the first round to go with the tight end situation knocks that they already have, I think gives them another weapon. I think it'd be a great place for a guy like DeAndre Hopkins. Now, I don't know if they can afford it. I think Hopsteel was really more about money than anything else. Nineteen twenty million dollars is a lot, and I think that's going to be hard for anybody to swallow. So I guess they figured they can negotiate off of that. So maybe it'll be close. I don't know, but I do think there's some teams that they are one. New England might be one. I just don't know if New England's window is the timing that DeAndre Hopkins could use. I think there are ways away. I think they're going to be the fourth in that division. So there's a couple other teams as well. If you look around the league, I think he'll find a home. I don't think he'll have to wait till training camp and an injury. I think he's above that and I think he'll be in demand. It's just a matter of what the price is.

Well, let's talk about that.

Let's talk about one of those teams that he said that he liked, and the Baltimore Ravens because they got a little bit of wiggle room with the cap. What would it mean for him to join that new style of offense. We heard Lamar talk about how he's going to throw more. Now what would that do for this new Lamar Jackson that we're getting ready to see during the regular season.

Well, it's not going to hurt him, that's for sure. I mean they've done they've done some good things with their perimeter players. Obviously, draftings a Flower, sign in OBJ, They're going to get a healthy bateman back. It'd be great to throw him in the mix. The thing about Hopp is he's going to be a security blanket for wherever he goes for that quarterback. Now, in the Ravens case, they have two really good tight ends already, but they have proved that they want to work the middle of the field, and that's kind of Lamar's deal. You could throw him in the mix. I don't know how much money the Ravens could come up with for a third or fourth receiver. I don't think they would sign him if he was going to take reps away from Zay Flowers. They want that to develop. He's a young talent that they've got to get on the field. So it may not be the most ideal, but I do know this, they're doing everything they can to make it easier for Lamar, and adding Hopkins would be an awesome stroke of business if they could get it done.

Randy, how do you think Lamar? I mean, he said it, I'm going to throw more, run less. He said, running only gets you so far. How do you think he's never thrown for thirty five hundred yards? How do you think he's going to do as a quarterback who primarily throws the football.

I think it's the time will tell, obviously, but I think that's been the rub with Lamar the whole time. It's yeah, that perimeter players haven't been and even the GM said, hey, I haven't done the best job at surrounding him. But the other thing is Lamar's accuracy is not his strength, and processing from the pocket for me isn't really using Lamar at his highest level. So I would think there's got to be a happy medium in there. I surely hope they don't box Lamar in and to try to make him a pocket passer, because he changes the game when he can get out of the pocket and make things happen with his legs. I don't want that evolution to stop. I think he's got to be a little more caretaking of his body, maybe not cartwheel into the end zone for a touchdown anymore, but we all have that, you know, with the older we get, our mind makes appointments, our body just doesn't need to keep and that's probably the case with Lamar. So I think he's going to have a lot of pressure on him this year. There's no more contract we talked about, there's no more lack of people around him, and I do think he's going to be one of the pressure points that we look at, especially with a new offensive coordinator and a new system that he has to sort out in training camp.

Let's talk about the team that just released him today and the Arizona Cardinals. Now we don't know, well, we know that Kyler Murray probably is not going to be available at the beginning of the season. If he is, you know, for whatever reason, not able to come back and they don't have a great year and end up with the first pick in the draft. Is this a scenario where they get off of him and draft Caleb Williams with the number one pick?

Wow? Well, I think that's gonna be a choice that is going to be sitting there and staring him in the face. Because I don't think it's going to be a great year for Arizona. I do like what Monty Austin Forks their GM has done, and that he made a couple of deals, draft data kind of strengthen the gates next year, move into some positions next year that we think that's going to be a better draft, and he's got a couple of high picks now. I think it's going to be up to Kyler. He's getting a fresh reset. Now we will see. I don't think he'll be ready to play and maybe Halloween, you know, at earliest. But he's got to do a lot of things away from the field, I think to sell people there. It's it's hard to reset all of those buttons, but he's got a chance to do it. I think he'll determine if they decide to take a quarterback or not. I think he's not going anywhere this year because of the money, maybe not even next year. But they're going to have to solve it long term. And if you end up with the first or second pick and you have a guaranteed slam Donk staring in the face, I think you'll find that the Cardinals are going to be open to that. That's for sure, Randy.

Everybody's talking about two quarterbacks that could bounce back and have throwback years, Aaron Rodgers of course with the Jets, and Russell Wilson because of Sean Payton's presence in Denver.

I want to ask you.

About a third though, how about DeShawn Watson, because I think Cleveland could be a team that, you know, could maybe make some noise if he, you know, can get back to what he used to be.

Do you do you think he can get back to being the old Deshaun Watson.

I think he can. I think Kevin Stefanski christ is going to have to change his style a little bit too, though. I think they're going to have to tailor make some things for Deshaun where we can see his athleticism, see him do a few more things. That's been a really kind of vanilla offense in my mind. And I know they want to run the ball, and that's first and four months in Kevin's scheme, but I think they're going to have to do some things different to highlight the skill set of Deshaun Watson. He is, no question, was very rusty all last year, but we saw him sit out really what eighteen months or twenty months something like that, So I would think we'll find out early. But I do think it's going to be a little change of philosophy that's going to help get the most out of Deshaun Watson. And we'll see if Kevin's willing to do that on the offensive scheme side.

All right, that's our mayor, Randy Mueller. We appreciate man. It's good catching up again.

Thanks guys. Looking for the season coming up.

Thanks Randy.

Yeah, see you, Randy, He's from a little bothered that everybody see now we're like, man, I thought I was special.

It is shop Talk on the Oak Cup of Fox Sports Rade segment we tak us something happening outside of the world of sports. This week's topic comes to us Curtis intro Curtis of Netflix. All right, as you guys know, Netflix is cracking down on passwords sharing. In fact, earlier this week they started sending out emails to all of their subscribers that said, very ominously, your Netflix account is for you and the people you live with in your household, because they don't want you sharing it outside of where you live.

Even when it started with you.

Your thoughts on password sharing number one and number two. If this is going to affect you in any kind of way, are you willing to pay the extra eight dollars a month to access Netflix?

No?

I mean you buy a subscription. It's like your neighbor back in the day getting cable and then you wiring your house to hit to his setllite or his cable box and you all share.

Man, Well, you get it snowy back my day. You get it in snowy look because your neighbor had it.

I'm a writer, I'm on strike, and one of the big reasons I'm on strike is the business practices of Netflix. So in no shape, way or form am I siding with any of them. I hope everybody's able to share their passwords all over the world.

Wow, that's what I think.

They're not gonna give us the money, so hey, it is what it is.

A revolutionary, true revolutionary.

Right there, fight the prob Well, don't cross that line.

By my family does share, like my household is right now, it's just me and my wife.

We're empty nesters.

Now.

My daughters are twenty five years old, but they us four. We do share passwords. So my daughters are still using it off of me, and I think they might have an app that we use, you know, like so our family just us for have the same pass where you know, we share all that, but not not outside of that.

There's one situation I won't.

Go into detail, but I do get a password from a family member, but I for a certain service, but I pay for it.

It's just for the access I pay for it.

But those the the six hundred channels or the five channels, none of that.

Okay, I'm trying to figure it out. I don't know. I'm the other part of that, I don't know. I don't know what's going on at the end of bru house Old, I don't know, no.

No, But but look to answer your second part of your question, I gotta be honest.

If push comes the shove, yeah, I hate to say it, but I probably pay the extra.

Well that's because you got too much money. Well okay, yeah, exactly right.

I'm blessed. But you work all day. You work too, Hey, hey, do work all day. I'm working all day. Never let it be.

I'll wake up to you. I'll wake up to you in the day with you. Okay, you you a clock punch your baby?

Yes, yes, yes, I got to take on this one, guys, because I share passwords with like we we trade like, hey, I'm gonna pay for Prime Video and Peacock, you're gonna pay for Netflix, and we'll just swap right.

Well, you and your boys, oh man, and my family okay, and so everything.

Everybody's basically paying for like three or four services and then we just kind of share.

How many apps you need?

Right now, just looking on my phone, I have thirteen different ones. God, and that's not counting like the cable service that it gets the other channels to it.

Right.

So, but here's my thing. The Netflix specifically is not one that I pay for. And if you no, so, if the person in my family who's paying the Netflix does not pay the eight dollars, I'm gonna be upset about it because I'm relying on you to hold up your end of the bargain. If I'm paying for HBO Max, which is now just Max, the least you can do is supply the Netflix for everybody else.

Well, it sounds like y'all gonna have to have a new family meeting, right, some new bylaws. Yeah, I agree with that. That's that is interesting. Usc Chris, where are you at?

Brother?

Huh?

Wells is if I'm gonna start paying for it, I'm just gonna channel Rob here. No way know how I ain't paying for that. I uh, let's see, I currently I pay for Paramount Plus. I seem to be the only person who I know who pays for Paramount Plus. And I give that to several people. I share Peacock.

When you say, is that friends?

And see I don't someone someone in Fox Sports Radio. I have shared it with him so we could watch some soccer.

I'm not gonna say I'm I would never share with friends but I don't know.

I just yeah, most of the other stuff I share with the family.

Like getting now the you know, I wouldn't say dangerous. We all have friends we really trust. It's only one or two, but it's like little you know.

Yeah, But then I think both of my sisters share different services with me. One's got Peacock, one's got Netflix. I use my mom's cable all the time. Like it it gets around and like we're a very split family. I live in California, my one of my sisters lives in Virginia, with the other lives in Colorado. My brother's in Saint Louis. My mother is back in Toledo. Like we kind of have to sh share. We there's no such thing as a household for us.

Wow, that is I'll tell you this. I have to get Peacock. Though I do have Peacock, but I.

Gotta get that because I gotta watch bel Air, that's right, and my.

Paramount.

I love Star Trek. I had to watch you.

From We're episode I think four Teachers Matter, Yes of the second season.

So that that was episode three. Now you're on the next. Okay, this episode you're on is my episode? The one I wrote, four is yours?

Yeah, okay, cool, cool all. I'll tell my wife that we watch it all.

Right, you know it is fun fact. He was gonna give me a sweater from bel Air. Yeah he hasn't really know. What I said was if I get more days here? Did you not get three days this week?

Three days? Five days in a week?

I got a sweat shirt five days in a week. Made me give him a day. He made me give him a day. Keep it like a couple of Fox Sports Radio
