It shouldn't have to take Ryan Poles telling the NFL that.

It shouldn't have to take Ian Cunningham.

It shouldn't have to take them justifying why they both got promotions.

This is a picks-free...

situation where nobody's giving up anything.

You know, it's not a lot of people thought in the reactions that I've seen people think, oh, they're taking picks from the Falcons.

No, this is part of the incentive that the NFL wanted to give teams free compensatory picks.

And now they're selectively applying the rules.

And frankly, perhaps

illustrating why the rule was brought in to begin with?

That's the most frustrating part about all of this is to make them have to justify their existence and their promotions in this.

You're somewhat illustrating why this needed to happen anyway.

Mm-hmm.

The flat top griddle.

That is a real luxurious thing.

No, that's it.

It's like, oh, people put bread on the griddle.

They put eggs on it.

Then they'll put the bread in the egg grease or something if they want.

I think the thing that just bothers me the most about the Cunningham and Pohl situation isn't just that they have to justify it.
