Loaded podcast for you today. What's going to happen to your favorite team? this NFL offseason. We're not going to get to every single team, but we'll go through some of the quarterback stuff with Sando. Also, some love for the Eagles and what they did is an alarming, trending Mahomes number that Kansas City has to worry about here a little bit more.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Right. And it also, when you look at the defensive numbers for Baltimore's massive spike, it was also schedule-based. And I've heard the Henry argument used against Lamar in favor of Allen. And I'm not outraged about Allen winning MVP. Me neither. He's great. If you voted for Allen because you had Lamar fatigue, that to me is a mistake. But the Henry thing in particular...
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Henry has a career year because everybody's scared to death of Lamar. Okay. Absolutely. It's connected.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I think that's part of it, Mike, but I also think if you look at snap count and contributors on defense and how many of these rookie contracts are part of that side of the football, I think it's all of these things at once. So take it wherever you want to go.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
This is actually going to get really interesting because if he, if the exit green Bay, like, all right, fine. You know, cause that was always this drawn out thing. Um, It's when I had a harder time with his argument, as I've said before, the situation is not as bad as he makes it out to be. Like this is a team that's still competing.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And it always felt like he was presenting as if it's like, oh, you know, I went four and 12 again. Like I have to, I have to figure out another place to end up for my final chapter. It's like, well, you know, you're part of these playoff losses too, man. So I had a harder time buying in his argument because I just felt like his situation was better than the way he was describing it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So eventually, look, they draft another quarterback. He gets his way. I know you kind of want to jump in there a little bit, but From the jump, the Jets thing was all on his terms, which they decided. We are going to do this because we are so desperate. We're the Jets. There's a chance it could still work out. It's unfortunate he gets hurt. They make the personnel changes.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
They make the front office changes. He doesn't show up. Was it to both voluntary things in the offseason? I think there's a version of this. If Aaron Rodgers was team first, even after the Green Bay exit, if everything felt like it was a partnership with him with the jets. And we still had this incredibly disappointing two year run include the injury with this. There's probably a market for him.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So I think you're already hinting at that. It's like, Hey, if he's this diminished and he's a pain in the ass, like what are we signing up for?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Do you want to know why I love that so much? It's because we were tracking flights. Yeah, I had the flight tracker. And I think there was a time too where Bill Polian, we were trying to figure out where he was and then he was in Charlotte and I knew Brian Polian. And Brian had been like, my dad came to visit me, man. Is it okay that my dad comes to visit me?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I don't even remember why the Charlotte thing came up. There was just so much that went on with that. We were tracking flights. Schefter was joining us. There could be a plane here. And then ultimately Elway tells Manning, you can do whatever you want. And it worked out. So go ahead.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah, and I also think Rodgers was, at times, there's probably a point in his career where I felt like he was the most talented thrower of the football that I've ever seen in my entire life. And it feels, when you compare him to the other greats, it feels like he's one ring short.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
To go back to a Jokic NBA thing, I want Jokic to have another ring just so the simplistic way that we kind of wrap all this stuff up at the end where there's just going to be all of these arguments. If Jokic only has one, it's like, well, you know, if he only has one, how do we put him ahead of some of these other guys?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And I would say like, this is this five, six, I don't know how much longer this window is going to go where Jokic is playing like some of the best basketball that we've ever seen for an extended period of time. And I think when I think back to Rogers peak green Bay years, there's a similarity of,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
hey, there might be a year where a guy has better stats for one year, but what he was doing at that position, how in command he was as a quarterback, one ring feels light for him. And... you know, and I, I don't know that I certainly felt worse about Breeze's defenses than I did Rogers.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Like maybe we can go back and look at some of the EPA defensively stuff, but there were also, I think there were some times where I, I felt like those Green Bay teams were pretty talented too. So, and it was a better front office. Is, am I wrong?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah, there's I at a time was making a lot because there was a really strange number. This goes back years and years, but there's a strange number that showed how bad his record was in these one score games. And I just felt like I don't know if that numbers and I went through all of the games. I did, too.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
You know, it was like, do you know how many times Rogers drove down for the go ahead score or the tying score? Only to your point, be watching. as his defense ended up giving up the game-winning score. And so then the record would reflect that Rodgers couldn't get it done. It's like he's actually had already done his job.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I think there's some playoff losses there later on, though, at home, where you could dig into the numbers and be like, hey, he needed to get one more of those. You know what I mean? Yeah.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah, and you're right. That was a conference championship game before the Seattle loss. I was there, yeah. Okay, let's go a little quicker on some of these other guys, even though I really enjoy doing that. I just don't want to leave anybody else. You mentioned Minnesota then. So what does this mean for Darnold?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Did Darnold really lose all of this money in those last couple games against Detroit and the Rams?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
The way that contract is structured... It was the four-year deal that was announced. It was really a two-year deal for Cousins. They make the Pennix pick. So then you're thinking like, okay, Pennix is going to sit a year. And then I think based on Cousins just physically never looked right this year.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And you could just tell on some of those shows, like this guy has to gear up to even get this ball out on some of this stuff. And then it's a disaster statistically. So they make the Pennix change and just the...
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
talent of pennix alone like i know i was probably getting too excited collinsworth had that one game against washington where it was like the guy could do no wrong but that's part of the sunday story you know it's a national game everybody's getting excited it's new and all the stuff i don't know that i want to do a segment called is pennix already overrated because i'm really excited about him but i think any is just the sheer beauty of him throwing a football
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
has all of us so excited that maybe we're a little too excited. But the contract part of Cousins, well, go ahead. It seems like you want to do Pennix here, but just include the Cousins contract.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Okay, last thing. I want to talk Pittsburgh here. I felt bad for you because there was an athletic promo on X where it was basically like, hey, check out my quarterback carousel for all next season. It's really good stuff. Obviously, I read it. But it had been out for about a month, but then it started up as an ad again, and it was titled,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
With Russell Wilson's solid play, it was right as the ad started running. It was when Wilson wasn't playing as well. Pittsburgh started falling apart. And I'm looking at the comments, and I'm like, poor Sander. People think he just posted this now after a month. And granted, look, Pickens had been out. The defense fell apart for Pittsburgh. I'm not telling you Wilson was great.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
But Wilson clearly is not on board with this scenario again. So let me hear the Pittsburgh and the Wilson part of this as we finish up.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Well, Buggy, again, man, I really appreciate this and looking forward to what I think is going to be an awesome offseason. So Mike Sando, The Athletic. Thank you, Ryan. Excited to do this as we gear up for the All-Star break in the second half of the NBA season. Joining us from ESPN's broadcast team and, of course, the host of the All-NBA podcast, It's a friend of the show, Tim Legler.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
What's up, man? Good to see you.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
No, no. Here we are. It's like two weeks later and we still have meat left on this Luca bone. And that's because we were both in the building. You were calling the game for Lucas first game with the Lakers against Utah on Monday. I went to the game. You know, I ended up getting tickets. So I was like, I want to be there.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So before we talk about a little bit what we saw, because clearly he's gearing up again, hadn't played in a long time. The production part of this, because you get access to both teams, you get access to the Lakers in this case. I know there's probably some uncertainty of whether or not he was even going to be able to be cleared to play at this point. So what went into that?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And then I think JJ's tried to be... maybe less excited than he probably is internally about this opportunity and being respectful about the process and everything. Um, but just some of the stuff you picked up in preparation for the call on Monday.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah, and I think to be completely fair to Luca, I don't know what any of us would have expected him not playing NBA basketball for that long of a stretch.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So it was funny because I felt like the crowd was actually kind of quiet before the lead-up to it because it was just a different energy in the building in that it's like this is actually happening, as if the fans almost didn't believe that it was real. And a lot of us around the NBA still can't believe that it's real.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And then the first action or whatever they ran, I saw Luca's down in the corner laughing. Like, all right, they're going to bring him, bring him along slowly. And yes, he was, he was completely out of shape. So you could see he was gassed early, but they kept him into like the first sub thing to kind of like that way basketball works, like get exhausted first and now start to play.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And then your body will kind of come back around. So I don't think there's anything from like a basketball standpoint. of going, oh, this is what they're going to do and this is how they're going to use it. It's just that when you're this good and this brilliant, you'll just figure it out around him.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I don't know if you saw anything or if that game gave us any clues to how this will work and how he and LeBron will work together. But it was one of those things where he probably was just so happy to finally play basketball again and get this whole thing behind him.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So... how do you look at the job, how he's done? Like, cause I think you talked to so many people around the league and we both, I mean, I know how it works in the basketball stuff is that there'd be a bunch of people praising them and then they're, I'll be a couple of guys going like, well, you know, there's, there's this, and this bill is, is coming due.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
It feels silly 20 years in with LeBron watching it live of still being amazed by by what he can do, but those hard dribble drive pull-up fadeaways and these fadeaways that he's hitting aren't these straight in and then back. We're talking about these crazy angles where he's just getting to a takeoff point and then at 6'9", hitting these shots.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
This isn't even anything necessarily off of Luka because he was doing a lot of this. I felt like LeBron was kind of juiced up a little bit in that game, his energy, but there was some shot making from him. Again, not that anybody's sitting here going like, oh, yeah, LeBron's really good. But those are impossible. They're impossible to defend. And he's actually kind of mastered the shot now.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I mean, I've brought up the defensive stretches throughout much of the season where you're like, it has to be better in the playoffs. It just has to be.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I mean, when you win a super bowl, I don't want to hear any of that stuff, but I mean, how do you look at the job, how he's done?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And then a real deep dive on the Rodgers musical chairs here. Will there be a chair for him if he still wants to play quarterback in the NFL. We're going to talk with Tim Legler, just do a bunch of stuff with the contenders. Also, he was in the building for Luka's debut with the Lakers. He'll be in Dallas tonight as that story continues to be terrible for Mavs fans.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
You have the broadcast of the late game on ESPN tonight, Golden State at Dallas. We'll get to Golden State. We're going to get to the rest of the league stuff here quickly. So just the last thought on this. Is there any concern that you, like, Does this topic come up? I mean, we're almost two weeks removed from the trade happening, knowing that the job is to call the game.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
But, you know, depending on how the game goes and how nasty this crowd has been, I mean, this thing is not dying in Dallas. And I don't really blame Dallas fans for feeling betrayed and everything that they're feeling here. The absurdity of this trade actually happening. You and I were texting about it right after it happened because all of us were just kind of in shock.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
But how you would handle that topic during the broadcast, it feels like there's a window for it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Let's talk about the rest of the league. We're in agreement, so I have nothing else to add there, and I've already talked about it a lot here. So we look at OKC. I think, and I've mentioned this a few times, like in the summer, you're going, OK, well, if Dallas is back, and I'm with you, I thought the roster was even better this year than the finals team last year. You always...
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
include denver in the conversation i think most of us thought minnesota would have a chance here that hasn't been as good they were terrible the other night i know they're missing some bodies against cleveland but like they started one of 20 in that game um maybe it's just the first quarter whatever but like there's just it's okay see and then trying to figure out everyone else and denver has has figured some things out here as well there was a nice defensive stretch in there now it's been back more to the offense actually having murray look like this is important
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I also think when Aaron Gordon misses that many games, you're looking at the numbers, looking at the standing and going like, okay, but there's just certain teams where I go, I don't really know if I care about what the numbers tell me right now. So if you're looking at the West outside of OKC, who do you think is the biggest threat to them?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And so you're not being around. I think some of those late possessions too, which shows you can just see, even if no question, right.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah, there'll be a big matchup there because you look at it today, Lakers are the four seed and this is without the Luka part of it. And we saw some of that on Monday. They're just going, look, we're just going to downsize this thing. We're not going to care if Utah is going to play Kessler. I mean, Utah is completely outmatched. They're not a very good team right now.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So that's probably not the best game to be like, hey, this is what the Lakers are going to do the rest of the time. But you could see even with Len, because it's kind of a desperate acquisition after the Mark Williams trade gets rescinded. And even if they've kept Mark Williams in that trade, I think the Lakers would look at it as saying, let's just space somebody in a playoff matchup here.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Let's have Dorian Finney-Smith sit in the corner. We may give up something here, and there's going to be a game where we get out rebounded by a ton. But if you're opening up, you're playing five out, and you're having Luke and LeBron and Reeves attack, all the stuff we were saying in the beginning, that might be the payoff where JJ's like, I know what I'm giving up.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
but I also know what I'm gaining here on offense. I guess I think it would just be tough to go, okay, if you're running into, say, a healthy, big OKC team, if you're running into what Denver is, Memphis is probably a better matchup when you look at some of the size stuff here. Let's stay on Memphis, though, because I'm with you. They're the two seed today. They're 11-2 in their last 13.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
They're top seven offense and defense. I, you know, last night, Ja, you know, the whole Ja thing in and out of lineup, all this different stuff that you had mentioned all the times where it feels like it's another guy stepping up, which speaks to their depth. And I think it is a team that doesn't mind who goes off from night to night.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
But Ja, you know, he's missed, in his 21 games, goes off against Phoenix last night. Santi Aldama was incredible to start the game for him. Jalen Wells, a rookie, has been like a real piece of what they're doing here. And they have guys that they can go to and Gigi is back and stuff. So, like, I like them, but yeah, it feels hard going, do you see them in the Western Conference Finals?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And that may be too dismissive of them, and maybe it's just, I mean, here they are. They've had different versions of themselves so many times over these last couple of years, and yet here they are standings-wise, the only team behind the Thunder.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Let's look at the East. I love the Hunter trade for Cleveland because whenever I watch Cleveland and Boston, I would just go, man, these defensive assignments start off really bad for what Cleveland probably wants to close with. And they probably would want to close with Strews prior to Hunter showing up. Um,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Now, I don't know how Struis closes in a playoff game unless he's just on fire and they feel like, hey, that's... But I'm not saying Hunter's going to shut down Tatum or Jalen Brown or other guys, but it's just another big body that they didn't have. And I love the way they move the ball. I love the way Mobley has played. You look at some of the on-off stuff with what Mobley has done.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Mitchell also kind of taking that mature collective step back of like, I don't need to do this all on my own. The way I think he came up as a player because it was so impressive and he just felt like, hey, I'm going to get all my buckets and accolades and all that kind of stuff. I think he's at that point of his career where...
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Like the guys that start to win games understand they don't need to play like this all the time. Although it's in there if you need him to go on like a 10-0 run because he's just that dynamic. So we know exactly who they are. And the Hunter part changes at least because prior to that, I'd be like, I don't want to hear it. Like I'm picking Boston against them.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I don't care what happens in the regular season. Like I don't want to hear it. This provides them a closing group that I think makes that trade really important for them.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah, but once you get one of these, like, none of that other stuff ever matters. Two Super Bowls. Well, yeah, you're right. I mean, two. I guess I'm... I was looking at the window a little differently because of the coach and the quarterback and everything. So think of this.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Boston deserves the benefit of the doubt. And I can't really talk myself into being frustrated with them, even if there are stretches where you're like, what is going on with this team? And then there'll be times where I don't love what I see from them offensively. And then I go back and look at the numbers. You're like, okay, they're fourth in offense. What do you want from this team?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And even if I did the side-by-side, because I did it this morning, I was looking at fourth in offense this year, fifth in defense this year, net rating this year, third.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
last year they were first in offense it's it's a better number last year than it was this year they were number two in defense net rating was number one overall so there's some statistical stuff that you can point to at 38 and 16 last year when they won their 38th game they were 38 and 12 but what when I was looking at that, I was like, boy, that seems closer than I would have expected.

But then Boston went on a 22 run where they ended up at 57 and 16. So like there was this stretch where they absolutely cranked it up. Is there anything, is there anything with them? We pointed to collectively like guys across the board, not having as good a season shooting wise, maybe some of the, like reintegration of Porzingis getting involved.

Some of the Jalen Brown stuff hasn't been great night to night. Derek White hasn't been the same guy. Like I'm kind of just repeating myself here. Is there anything that you see that's remotely concerning with them?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah, I know that I probably watch them too much and some of the things that I'll think I'm being, like sometimes I'll look at it and go, okay, well, that was bad. Or what happened there offensively? I mean, there's even some stuff from their clutch execution last season I was like, could this come back and bite him?

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And then it's like, nope, they're just going to roll through everybody and it's not that big of an issue. And then I have to kind of remind myself to like compare it to the rest of the league. And I want to get into this with you, right? As a great shooter, this might take a second to set up, but I was watching Portland, Denver the other night, right?

And of course, Jokic had that absurd shot clock three in the corner where you just like want to give up. You're like, can we just go home now? This is ridiculous. But on a lesser heralded attempt and make,

was simon's in the left corner and he has the ball it's not a catch and shoot he's it looks like he's stuck but it's simon so he's not stuck if he doesn't want to be stuck and he's flat-footed he's just in the corner there's a guy just in his grill like waiting to see what he's going to do and there's not really like a ton of jab step work to get free he just pulls up and nails this three from the corner and i'm sitting there going like
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I hope people appreciate how hard that shot is. It's not in rhythm. He's not even sure what he wants to do until he just says, all right, I'm going to pull up and make this. And Simon's a really good player, super talented, great scorer. We already know all that stuff. But it's not like he's one of these all-timers.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And I think of how many guys around the league can make those shots in the skill level that we're at right now. And if you look at the overall three-point shooting numbers, like we're at the most attempts per game in NBA history, not surprising, just over 37, which is two more per game than the other highest mark.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
If you want to look at the collective shooting from three, they're at 359, which is 10th all time. So you could take a snapshot of like last five to six years and say that three-point numbers declining a little bit, but it's not so dramatic that you think you're actually finding anything. So when I think about the people like Simons who make these shots, Tim, you're just like, I don't,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
It's not even a good shot, but he's capable of it. But then I'll think about Nas Reid in that Cleveland game. And this isn't me to be critical of Nas Reid, but it was just something I see a lot. He had a three-point attempt. It was fine during the shot clock. He didn't really even have the ball in his hands. His feet weren't set.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And he's kind of not floating, but his feet, he's like lingering back. There was nothing right about his setup.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
shot decision it was all bad and he and he misses the three and so i think that's where like an older generation will look at attempts like that going you would be benched in my era for even thinking about it but on the other side when you see simons have that kind of make it's like you kind of have to allow so many of these bad attempts because
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
You're right. You're right. All right. Let's talk about Kansas City. I don't want to make it as open as what's next for the Chiefs. This is a terrific football team. It is the standard you want from an organization. I fell into the A-block trap of Monday talking about Mahomes and Brady because I do think with Brady on the call talking about losses and how they haunt him. Oh, yeah.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And I know that sounds crazy because I feel like, Tim, I'll see guys like you didn't even have the ball in your hands. You weren't shot ready. There was nothing about you that gave you a good chance of making that shot, but you took it already.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So I guess it's kind of taking the escalation of where the skill has developed to and accepting some of those bad shots where I think you can make an argument for it's both the most Talented level of basketball we've ever seen sprinkled in with more attempts of like, what were you possibly thinking on that attempt where both sides aren't wrong to kind of emphasize the other?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I thought that was relevant to what I would do on Monday. I didn't start the show with it. But again, everybody gets sick of that because everybody's doing it, which I totally understand. But you also, in your piece, map it out and go, Mahomes is fine on the Brady trajectory if you want to look at it that way. But I think there is something to be asked here
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Yeah. And not to bring it up again with Boston, but my standard for them is winning an NBA title. So when I see shots where I go, what was that? Like, you guys are too good to be doing that kind of stuff. But then I'll remind myself, like, hey, you're going to watch another game after this one. And you're going to see way worse players taking the exact same shots.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So some more on that stuff, how that dynamic will work in a basketball sense. We're going to talk, like I said, all the contenders and some shooting things that I think are important to think about when you're watching the second half of the season. And we've got life advice. Huge pod today. A lot of NBA with legs. And let's do some NFL offseason stuff with our guy Mike Sando.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I'll still never understand the guy that shoots it when it's not in his hands. This is hard enough, man. And you know as a shooter, I don't really have it in my hands. It's like, ah, whatever. But I don't want to turn this into criticizing necessarily today's game because I think we're explaining some of the stuff that people don't like and the understanding behind it.

But I had two screens up on... Monday night and two teams within seconds of each other ended up on three on one breaks, three on one breaks. And both wings stayed inside the three point line and both teams with the ball didn't score like completely fucked it up. And I thought, that's crazy because they're not even used to guys not running to the corners.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So instead of like stopping at the free throw line, like all the stuff we grew up with, like stop, make the defender commit, then make your decision. Or if you're really special, like pretend you're going, you know, some sort of decoy move. And yet it was because you don't really see.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Um, in particular, and this is what I want you to use is when you chart out the drop back numbers and the production, this is now like we're talking about the best quarterback in the world. So to say this is an alarming chart to show decline, but it, but it is kind of alarming that you wonder if this is a game that makes Kansas city go, maybe we can't take this guy for granted.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I don't care who you are. There's nothing worse than looking over to see if you're going to be subbed out while you're trying to play. And I don't know that these guys have to worry about that that much anymore. A couple last things here before we finish up here. I don't want to keep you too much longer.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I was looking at some of the golden state numbers because like, I think the Jimmy Butler acquisition is just what is, what can we do to raise the floor? What can we do to close with five guys that are better than what we had before? So I understand that motivated Butler.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
He's looked really, really aggressive here with golden state for a couple of games, but knowing how like golden state plays a beautiful game and they still with this limited version of themselves this year, because I think a lot of it was run. The action was to have it get shut off. All right. everybody pretend we're going to do something. And now the ball ends up back in Steph's hands.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And, um, you know, I just don't have a lot of criticism for some of the efficiency with Steph because I just, I see what he's being tasked with doing. I've also used this argument for Booker at times where it's like Booker runs the first thing and then everybody tries to figure it out again. And then it's like, all right, Devin, like save our ass, um, depending on how the minutes are aligned.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Right. So Butler provides something they have not had. They still lead the NBA in passes per game. Um, which is just kind of who they've been fundamentally here for like a long time. How do you see Butler? Let's talk about those closing minutes. How do you see him in a big spot and then kind of what Golden State could be capable of with the best version of him?

Right, and the Warriors sitting there in the 10th seed today, but only a game up on Phoenix, San Antonio in the mix, and then, of course, Portland after a really nice stretch. I don't know if they lost a couple, but I just would, as a basketball fan, like the play-in part of this, depending on the seeding too, so you could argue, well, Steph shouldn't even have had a chance.

addition adds something that you know legs and i've talked about i talked about after the trade deadline a new teammate that gives them another big option you know whenever you're making a trade you go would this guy close the game with us with our five at the end of a playoff game if the answer is yes then i think it's a lot easier to give up the resources that you have to give up but i also think that cleveland if they were to at least even win the east this year is another lesson in exercising patience the same way we see another set of all-star teammates

I mean, the old people will look at you and be like, you fucking didn't even wrap this thing. Like, you know, you're already checking the price and you're trying to figure it out. Is this the right address? No, it isn't. Especially if you're sending something to Martha's Vineyard, there's always like a delay of like, okay, but there's no what is this? Like, you can't use that street address.

So the night of Staples Center, I'm not wearing it, but I'm sending it to one of my friend's kids. So I got to make sure I get this. So I am in there a little bit more. And then if I'm like going through a closet clean out, I'll give my dad a bunch. He loves, as he gets older, he loves the long sleeve workout shirts. What was the size on those shirts?

Yeah, they're nice. I mean, as far as a free t-shirt goes, they're pretty nice. You know what else? Shout out to Lakers fans. I noticed that There wasn't somebody who sat down ahead of time and decided to take seven of them. And then you get to your seat a little before tip-off. You're like, oh, no way. My shirt is gone. I thought for sure that would probably happen. Maybe upstairs.

Maybe in some of the vertical route seating areas. 300 level? Yeah. I'd imagine there's a few people that got there maybe five minutes into tip-off. They're like, yes, I'm not getting a shirt. Yeah. Yeah, post office. Good luck. Okay. I love this one. I love this one. Do I demote myself? We love self-awareness. Hello, Ryan, Saruti, Kyle, and now Wargon. Great addition to the team.

It's great. No one likes closing out a video more than he does. All right. So this guy, my amateur jiu-jitsu record has climbed to 10-3 since my last email. Okay, so we get a two-time emailer here who's also a badass. I have a bit of a problem at work that I could use some help with. Currently, I'm a full-time salesman and a part-time student. Okay, important.

I'm finishing my degree in Kyle's hometown, which requires me to commute from New Jersey to be in person twice a week. My last class that I have to be in person for, the rest will be online. I expect to finish my degree at the end of the calendar year. My problem is sales is a commission-based salary, and I am not selling, underlined.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
While I think I could be good at it, I'm just simply not selling, compounded with my school schedule that I expect to have this year. I find it hard to hit my target sales goal of $300,000. A solution that I've thought of is going to my boss and asking to be demoted from sales to our furniture installation team.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
As of now, we have a revolving door of installers who do not show up, are lazy, or come in with convenient excuses to do limited work. This has resulted in me over the last year filling in for the lackluster help. I've done everything except put the actual furniture together. My idea is that I go to my boss, also the owner, and present him with the solution.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
It will provide me with a steadier schedule in regards to school work balance, gives my boss labor that he can rely on, as well as give me in-depth knowledge of what I've been selling. My idea is that I do this until I finish my degree and then go back to full-time sales. I'm not sure how he would take this or how to present it. Any idea would be very helpful. P.S.

I've been to two live shows and every time so far I've raised my drink to Kyle and got a head nod and kept it moving. Is that a top tier fan interaction? Remember this guy, Kyle? Sounds great. I could see a few head nods along the way. OK, this is why I love this. There's just I'm thinking about you as a part time, you know. uh, age wise, did we get an age here again? Double check here.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
We don't think we got an age. All right. But full-time salesman, part-time student. So probably grad student then you think, yeah, I'm thinking grad student age. I'm not thinking like undergrad window here of like 18 to 21. I'm thinking somewhere in his twenties, maybe he's 30. I don't know.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
It doesn't matter, but I love you going in and preparing this and being accountable and going, I'm not doing great in sales right now. Um, And I think you know that. And it's stressing me out. I feel like I'm not pulling my weight. So I'd like to provide a short-term solution to that that could maybe benefit both of us. I come off of sales. I work in the furniture side of this.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I have the steadier schedule. I don't feel like I'm letting you down. And I can finish up school here the next year. I would think anyone in charge would love any employee... like doing something, not just quitting, you know, forget the two weeks and quit that just, Hey, I can't do this. I'm totally stressed out.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Like you are handling this just in the email alone in an incredibly mature way, which I think any employer, and we're talking about the owner and your boss, would appreciate. He may even say, hey, you're actually not doing that bad on sales. I love what you're doing. Don't worry about it. Maybe there's some leniency.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Maybe this is just about you mentally getting past the anxiety you have about feeling you're not doing as good of your job in letting people down. Maybe there ends up being some reassuring thing here where you stay on the same program and it's fine. Or maybe he's like, yeah, that makes a ton of sense. You aren't great at sales, but I love that you're

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
you want to stay with a company, finish up school, revisit it. And now you'll have had all this experience. And when you can focus solely on the sales thing, like you're keeping that window open too. So I don't see the downside here. Um, I mean, unless the guy's just a jerk and he's going to make it a problem for you because that's what he's like, but you haven't given us any of those indicators.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
So I'm assuming that you kind of get along enough. So if the email is like, should you not do this because you're worried about his reaction? My guess would be,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
You being this accountable and mature about it and preventing or excuse me, presenting a solution to the dilemma is going to be something he's thrilled with that, that you've thought about this and care this much to go through this exercise. Yeah.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
There's also something else to remind everybody about sales projections is that usually it's what number can we come up with that we don't think they'll get. Right. So that there'll be like the one guy who gets it. Because if you set the projection at 75% or you set it at a realistic number, like all the different things that you could do, um, It's just a reminder. And he may, he may not.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I don't know if he would tell you that or not, or if this is your first experience where he's like, Hey, actually nobody in the department's hitting their number, but it sounds like you still just don't feel like you're doing a great job of that. But I, I remember like the first time hearing about how a department would go and next year we're going to double it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And I'll just, it's like, are you serious? It's, I don't know. I think it's just some human nature thing of like, if you're chasing this number, you're more likely to get closer to it as opposed to just everybody in the department being like, hey, here's a realistic number that everybody can get. And that'll be a really good year for us.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
Then people will just shut down once they get closer to that number that you set lower. So that might be part of the learning experience from this whole thing too. But I can't imagine an employer and again, owner of the company wouldn't appreciate you again, caring and presenting him with a solution as opposed to like, Hey, I'm not good at my job. What do I do now?

Like Russell Wilson, the, they take sacks, right? The story was, I don't have time to throw, except when you looked at the numbers, he had time to throw, uh, But that could be misleading because he was scrambling out so many times. And that whole Russell Wilson protection, non-protection argument was hilarious because I'd say half the sacks he took were because he was extending plays so much.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And the offensive line didn't know what to do with the block. And that's not even a criticism of it. It's just whenever I see that time to throw stuff, I'll see a quarterback where I think, well, no, he's actually in a bad situation. He's just on the move all the time. And then the other guy has the same time to throw number.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
And that is because of, I would say, the product of a good offensive line and good protection. So I don't know that it's clear.

I also think Lamar has an odd thing that may be unlike anybody else. I'm not to say that nobody else does it, where things will completely collapse around him. And with his movement, without intending to run, he will almost get a second pocket. It's a complete reset of then getting to survey the field again. Because he's got the sixth sense.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
He doesn't have to move to still avoid everything because he's just that quick, which is which is different than another guy that may clock out at the exact same time. They had three and a half seconds to get this ball out. Wow, look at that great protection. Like, dude, those two snaps were completely different experiences.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
I can't wait for this one because I think there's going to be a lot of headline type movement. But let's start with Philadelphia. They win the Super Bowl. I've seen, look, what Howie Roseman has done in reinvesting into this defense in particular, hitting on the O-line, all the weapons. This seems like what you would want your architect to do.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
That was the best way to make the point. We got there eventually. I don't have more on that, so let's move on to some of the other stuff that is more important here. Real quick, though, because you did mention it, projecting out the MVP, looking at all pro historically, it looked like Lamar was going to get another one of these, and then boom, down in New Orleans, you find out Josh Allen wins MVP.

A Full NFL Offseason Preview and the Chiefs’ Future With Mike Sando. Plus Tim Legler on the Luka-LeBron Combo, Celtics Worries, and More.
You shouldn't. And I have an MVP vote for the NBA, and I have a hard time with it some years. In other years, I don't have a hard time with it at all. In the Embiid-Jokic year, I had a hard time. I would probably disagree with your NFL guy there a little bit. Here we go again, me interviewing. me getting upset with some of your anonymous NFL sources. I love it, though.

know this guy has already won it let me let me go with the new guy if it's if it's really close uh and it was close i got no problem with josh allen winning the mvp he's a great mvp candidate you know yeah because i mean i don't always want to just put this guy's graphics up against this guy's graphics and they go well this guy has more touchdowns so that means that he's the mvp but

This is how you would want to do it and hopefully be that successful. I have, however, seen... that this is an example of spending and why other teams should not use spending and a lack of cash as an excuse because of some of the total value of some of the contracts.

if you're using the Josh Allen is the most important player to his team argument, you don't get very far into the argument before you're, you're completely contradicting yourself by dismissing what Lamar's importance is to that football team. So,

The nitrous is a little weird. I mean, I've been around all types of stuff. I can identify certain things by smells that aren't just weed. But I got to say, there's something jarring about seeing the can of whatever. I consider myself pretty liberal, and it doesn't upset me, but it certainly throws me off. It's just like a new thing.

Yeah, you mentioned a while back on this show, like, as you've gotten older, like, I'm starting, like, I can see how people, you know, navigate these complicated feelings when there's, like, some sort of infidelity. Because, like, I think we had talked about it before, you know, when you're younger, it's like, oh, she kissed another dude, that's it, I'm out.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast

The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Draft Takeaways With Booger McFarland. Plus, Jimmy Butler’s Big Game 4 and ‘Warfare’ Codirector Ray Mendoza.
Like you, you see as people get older, how maybe it's a little more complicated, not as cut and dry where, you know, your high school girlfriend cheated on you and you're just like, all right, well, never talking to her again. Or so I think that's probably part of growing up.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Draft Takeaways With Booger McFarland. Plus, Jimmy Butler’s Big Game 4 and ‘Warfare’ Codirector Ray Mendoza.
Right. But, yeah, I think you're right. You just have to ask yourself a couple of these questions. Right. I mean, it doesn't sound like they haven't been dating that long. It's not like you're moving out and looking for a new apartment.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Draft Takeaways With Booger McFarland. Plus, Jimmy Butler’s Big Game 4 and ‘Warfare’ Codirector Ray Mendoza.
So you're like, if we get back together and this happens again, like you just you wonder when you're like setting up a foundation of a life and you're like, God, is this this? is this going to get washed away by the ocean? How close to the beach are we? I don't know.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Draft Takeaways With Booger McFarland. Plus, Jimmy Butler’s Big Game 4 and ‘Warfare’ Codirector Ray Mendoza.
But, and then also like, like you said, with your family, it's like, is your mom going to have a couple of sangrias on the 4th of July and it's going to come up? I mean, who knows how many people know, do they know you did the bad thing or do they just know she did the bad thing? Is this, is this all shit that is going to amount to a happy life? So I don't know.

I think maybe I would, um, the band-aids kind of ripped off your, he's saying he's trying not to contact her. I think the longer you do something, um, the easier, that's hard, the easier it will become. That's what everyone says about running and lifting weights and everything. So maybe, maybe another month of this, you might feel differently. I don't know.

I just feel like it doesn't sound like you have a solid foundation and it sounded like you weren't together long enough that, you know, You're deciding who gets dogs and cars and who gets to stay in the place. So I don't know. I think there's totally someone that you can enter into a relationship with where there isn't like ammo on either side.

Kawhi’s Reminder Game and Cade’s Arrival. Plus, NFL Draft Best- and Worst-Case Scenarios With Danny Kelly and Danny Heifetz.
But that's not the story. The story is essentially that I invited... So I had started working on a new show. It was Will's show. I had known Will for a little while. Bubba was a guy I'd worked with for a while over there. Who else? Ray Netsche, our old producer, Ray. There's a bunch of...

Kawhi’s Reminder Game and Cade’s Arrival. Plus, NFL Draft Best- and Worst-Case Scenarios With Danny Kelly and Danny Heifetz.
And then there were some new people on the show, Nuno, Liam, who used to produce Mike and Mike, who I knew but didn't know super well but had gotten to know well. But by the time you're sending these wedding invites out months in advance, I didn't know Liam as well then, so he didn't get the invite. He and Nuno did not get the invite.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Kawhi’s Reminder Game and Cade’s Arrival. Plus, NFL Draft Best- and Worst-Case Scenarios With Danny Kelly and Danny Heifetz.
They're the only two people on Will's show that weren't invited. And in classic Will Kane fashion, he brought this up on the show, on the air, and we just talked it out. And it was wildly uncomfortable for your boy. And I love Will. That was not one of my favorite Will Kane moments. People can insert whatever jokes they want here.

Kawhi’s Reminder Game and Cade’s Arrival. Plus, NFL Draft Best- and Worst-Case Scenarios With Danny Kelly and Danny Heifetz.
He was concerned with the border pretty early. Yeah, I mean, technically, yeah, Liam is English. Nuno Portuguese. So, yeah, there were some who knows. Yes. So that was it was uncomfortable. It's probably the most uncomfortable I've ever been on air doing anything was when Will out of nowhere basically was like, Sruti, they're not invited. What's up with that?

Kawhi’s Reminder Game and Cade’s Arrival. Plus, NFL Draft Best- and Worst-Case Scenarios With Danny Kelly and Danny Heifetz.
And then I had to essentially explain why. And I don't think they cared. but it, I felt bad. And I literally talked to my wife, Maddie. I was like, should we invite them? Like, this is, I feel like a dick now. Cause I am friendly with them. Like I'm close with them.

They didn't want the invite. I didn't, they didn't want the pity invite. And honestly, I respected that. I wouldn't want the pity invite either. So, But this is a different scenario. This person, like, I actually understand this. And if you don't want to, if you want to avoid the confrontation, you also understand like 20% of people likely turn down wedding invites.

Cause not to, I mean, I don't think this is going to make you mad or change any way you think, but that is like the least effort place. The across the street.

The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Kawhi’s Reminder Game and Cade’s Arrival. Plus, NFL Draft Best- and Worst-Case Scenarios With Danny Kelly and Danny Heifetz.
The appropriate response to you not getting invited, but being uncertain about the invite is to ask a friend to ask for you to be like, hey, was someone so invited? I just I'm trying to get a number of who's, you know, who on the softball team is in and out. And if they tell you that she's not invited, then you have your answer going directly to the person. You're right.

What's the principle? Well, it's... it's your seat. Technically this, this is, this goes back to this whole shift. And it's kind of, I think we're getting away from this too, but like this whole shift to like the open office concept or yeah, everyone could just mingle and be free flowing.

Well, that's the thing. He is, did he, he's basically checkmated you in the game of like chicken, crazy chicken, right? Like you don't, what move do you have? Do you accept the invite? And then no show, like, is that a better, I don't, I don't even know like how further, how much further you kind of take this. Cause you're, he has kind of trapped you.

he holds all of the cards as far as just seniority and people liking him and even your future career growth. And he also is crazy enough to potentially want to fight you on a deck at the, at work.

You're just never going to be looked at in the same...

So, you know, it wasn't, like, he didn't ask you, like, hey, man, if, you know, for my surprise, it'd be really nice if we could just not have any booze in the house or anything.

Mike's not having as much fun as I thought he would have. But I mean, again, like bachelor parties aren't just for Mike. They're like, it's about the whole group. So I think it's good that you didn't say anything, especially if you're a part of that trip, you're probably a part of that wedding. And if one of his guys is like against him talking about like, dude, look what she's doing to you.

This could have been one of those situations where Betty's daughter, you know, in classic kid fashion the night before the projects do let you know you need some construction paper and poster board.

I remember that.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
That sounds like you're addicted to the game. Yeah. I understood that first thing. And, like, it'll send me into a small road rage when I'm coming up to a corner and there's just cars. And I'm like, wait, how am I supposed to... How can they... What am I supposed to do? There's cars behind me. I'm getting nervous. I understand that. And I guess I understand, like...
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
You know, patrolling your block and your corner kind of sucks that you're hitting college kids with bills that they probably don't have a way to pay for.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Yeah, I guess not. Yeah, but I think this was a great opportunity for you to kind of.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
introduce yourself back into normal society when you moved and you're just not ready to do that so i think it's a little insane uh i wish your girlfriend was a little bit more uh on this rather than just like god wish you wouldn't do that like i wish i wish you like talked a little more sense into you but maybe she just knows the guy she's dealing with and she's like this is we're barking up the wrong tree here this is a road to nowhere um yeah i i try to find another passion if i were you um

you know, pick up, watch, watch your own driveway, man. I don't, I don't know. I don't love it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Like, like, clearly, you felt vindicated when the guy who was wronging you, you'd see him pick that ticket up off his car and, you know, clench his fist. But now you're not even seeing that you're just on your walk, and you're just like, got another one. And then you're just like, are you just imagining the moment when like, is it more about screwing over the other guy than doing the right thing?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Because I would ask, where does this end? where does this end? You just start showing up at local parks and calling people, calling the cops on dudes, fishing, you know, where does it end? If you, if you, if this itch can't be scratched by what's going on here.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Are we talking pre or post-streaming? Um, because Sopranos fucked me up in college. Sorry for cursing. I mean, it really it really got me. And then it was like wire. And I was like, what else does HBO have to offer? And I'm like, we're going down the Deadwood path. And yeah, a couple of a couple of seasons of Game of Thrones were out at that point. So, I mean, there was a lot of, you know.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Yeah, I mean, we had voted there was three cigarette smokers in the house of five dudes that the upstairs was going to be a smoking zone. So I didn't even have to leave. You know what I mean? It was just like, I mean, the two dudes that lived on the downstairs weren't happy about it, but we were close enough that we just like get over it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
So, yeah, I didn't even have to like take breaks to do that. And, you know, as you know, first Sopranos run, you're just like, well, I guess I just have to see what happens next. So, yeah, I don't know. I don't know the number, but it's it's up there. It's up there. Eight to 10. That's a lot. I mean, 10.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Yeah, that's a lot. Probably not. There was other stuff going on for sure, but. I think I recognize we are approaching a problem.

The Brutalist to start my Tuesdays. Nice pull. With the last of the Mohicans and Brutalist, that's pretty good. Good job on you with the Irishman's Rudy. I think I would attack the surface problems with this, the shit that annoys me. 28 years old, you can still be pretty cut and dry about things.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
I don't think you have to worry about massaging and bringing it up like some of the other emails we get. And it's like, I don't want this to ruin what's going on. How do I approach this? I think you're still roommates, late 20s. You can still just be like, here, this is what's fucked up about what's going on right now. Sorry for cursing again. Trying to do that less.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
But I think... I would stay away from the, like, what are you doing with your life? Come on, this is embarrassing. More of, like... dude, we're not, we're not doing this game with the TV. Like, sorry, you were here first, but like, you haven't got up in six hours, whatever. Like, I think you can still attack those problems head on strength in numbers.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
If there's more than one dude upset about this, I don't think you need to dance around it. I don't really have any answers for the, like you said, he's not ready.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Uh, any of the more existential questions about what he's doing, but like, I would just attack the stuff that's bothering you right now, uh, at this moment in the living room at 6 PM when you're home and you, you know, you'd like to watch something and he's, you know, I think that stuff you can attack head on. Dudes are still young enough that people move on from these little things.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
As long as you don't get into the bigger aspects of the whole thing, I'd be ready to fight about this stuff. I feel like it'll probably just go away.

Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Shout out to our last buddy just got a job. Our last unemployed buddy just got a job yesterday. And it was a huge, huge celebration in the group chat. Dudes have to come up with more jokes. He went unconventional. He finished college late and then was like working at some sort of like pseudo weed shop. And we were like, man, I just don't think this is going to work out well.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
And of course it didn't. And he was unemployed for a little bit. He just got a big boy job yesterday. And shout out to the last dude in the group. And I hope that happens for this guy.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
the last dude in the group to get the job, everyone's going to be super supportive of that.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Okay, I think I'd want to know where you're leaning with the punishments because I'm sure I'd probably be the one to fall short. I don't know. I'm not afraid.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Bracket Preview, Upsets, and Final Four Picks with Stanford Steve
Uh, you say, I don't know. I'm sure I'll be doing it, whatever it is.

The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
a bunch of people said this and it's just true to live it is like the second one you just worry about so much less shit you know it's like it's kind of like more chill like you got another kid but also like i'm just not worried about the same stuff i was worried about with the first one you're like yeah it'll probably be fine this is fine like we don't have to worry about like we didn't have anything she came about a month early we didn't have really anything ready we didn't have a name when we first went to the hospital so we're feeling good right now uh we have a name so that's good i do like that though the
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
It's a very Raiders pick.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
It feels like one of those things that you screwed up once. I don't think you need to do it again. Here's the thing. You didn't ruin this guy's life. You didn't ruin the Raising Cain situation. But I don't know that this helps or hurts. It just kind of makes you look a little bit weird. I didn't really think about putting him on the spot to have to explain who you are.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
But I think if the guy just says, hey, I have no idea who that person is, so... they probably just move on and nothing really matters. I don't think in the grand scheme of things, you screwed anything up really, but now you're going to have to go back into that raising canes. Cause you said you're kind of a regular in like, what if that guy recognizes you and he's working there?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
I mean, I guess you'll find out eventually whether or not it worked out or not. Um, maybe you go in next time. He's like, Hey man, appreciate, really appreciate the, uh, you know, the, the boost there. I ended up getting the gig or maybe he's like, what the hell was that? I don't want to work with this guy.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
So I, I don't think there's any real harm here, but you're, you're kind of a weirdo by doing this. I'm going to be honest.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
So that worked out really well for me. Yeah.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
You got in and it was like, hey, I know you're great, blah, blah, blah. He's like, we worked together for so long.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
I must just have one of those faces. Got the letter of recommendation from Russillo, apparently. Right.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
People want to know him. You know, people want to be associated with war gun. I get it. I know he's so freaked out by this. He swore, which doesn't happen a lot.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
It's a popular one. Trust me. I got a lot of name knowledge these days. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Yeah, you know, because you want to pick, you know, we want to pick kind of a unique name, but not one that everybody uses. And Olivia, I feel like it's been like in the top three for 10 straight years. Were you guys like checking the stats? Oh, yeah.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
I was on the baby name stuff, like, you know, looking around. And Sophia is another popular one. I think Emmy, Emma, something like that is in there. There's a couple that are just always in the top five. But Olivia has been one for a long time.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
Yeah, what if your kid doesn't like Coachella?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
It's swung back though to traditional. Now, like the grandma names are kind of back in, you know, Genevieve and Margaret, Eleanor, Eleanor, Eloise, Dottie's not back. Dottie. Well, I don't, you know, you don't know. I don't know. I mean, Dottie, I don't know any Dottie's, but give it 10 years. You know, you never know. Um, I was thinking about the other day. I haven't met a baby named Steve.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
I couldn't tell you the last time it was a Steve. I think Steve's out. Do you hang out with a lot of babies? No, but I don't know that there are a bunch of Steves. That's not true because now I bring my daughter to daycare. There's no baby Steves. None. Done. I imagine the Mike run is over. That was a long run you guys had. Yeah, but I feel like Michael is still in. Ryan's definitely still in.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
Not your Ryan, but, you know, the greater Ryan. The greater Ryan? What does that mean? Not with the E. You know, the E is, you know. What I don't understand is like we want to name our kids something, but we're just going to like throw in more vowels, not a different vowel.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
Saxon's a perfect example. Jackson with an X. Like what? That's strange. Or like Amy with two E's, you know, or just throwing unnecessary vowels. We know what the name is. Why do you have to spell it this way? So, you know, I don't know.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
Anyway, let's talk in names. I don't want to say this.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast

The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!

The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
Yeah. It's not like you're completely abandoning the cat either. Just keep it outside. You can keep feeding it, but it just can't hang out on the couch with you guys. That seems like a reasonable, again, this person's probably not reasonable if they're going to put up a huge fight about it. And then maybe that just, you know, now you have more motivation to,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
get out of your current situation and, you know, live solo or a duo with your wife. But yeah, I think you just say, we don't want this. Could you get the landlord involved? Like, is there a way to just be like, could you just make up something that like you can't have pets that you forgot about to put in the original contract? I don't know. I'm sure he's not excited about this cat either. Yeah.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Annual Todd McShay–Daniel Jeremiah NFL Draft Fest!
My wife wanted it. We got it as a present. You know, I guess it could be worse. I'd hate to take a shot at a guy who's not here. Could have five rabbits. That'd probably be worse. But the cat thing, the litter box. He wishes he had five. Yeah, it's growing.

put your foot down yeah this is this is you put your big boy pants on your your your groom pants on your married man pants on eventually if you want to honestly like your tailored your wife yeah your tailored pants exactly your it sounds your wife's not into this it sounds or your future wife's not into this so this seems like a total win for you to stand up and be like the hero in this situation so that's what i would do yeah and then lock in that you're actually going to get married this summer

The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Brunson’s Brilliance in the Clutch, the Celtics’ Uncertain Future, and Milwaukee’s Giannis Decision With Chris Mannix
Yeah, it's basically like they'll just send you... No, they'll like send you a random product you didn't order. And the point is that they can then leave a review because they have like the purchase. So you're getting a free item. They're giving themselves a random like five-star review. And I guess it like helps their Amazon account or something.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast

Okay. Sounds like she was legit. I don't think you just get to write a thesis by doing nothing. Unless.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Free Agency Hits and Misses with Sheil Kapadia, Plus Chandler Parsons and How History Will View the SGA-Jokic MVP Race
I honestly, this seems like less egregious than some other ones that we've seen where like, you know, just like, Hey, I'm just waiting for, you know, the check after death. And that'll be great. Like she seemed at least they got some common interests, but I don't know. I think the, I think the using thing is weird because like,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Free Agency Hits and Misses with Sheil Kapadia, Plus Chandler Parsons and How History Will View the SGA-Jokic MVP Race
Like, financially, yeah, she may be benefiting from this transaction, but we love to ignore the fact that, like, maybe this guy's lonely, and he needs some emotional support. He just wants somebody to be there with him, even in his 60s. He's getting something out of this transaction. So, like, I don't know.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Free Agency Hits and Misses with Sheil Kapadia, Plus Chandler Parsons and How History Will View the SGA-Jokic MVP Race
I kind of hate when people talk about it that way, because it's almost like the guy part is forgotten. Like, oh, he's just being used. Well, he's also kind of using her, because, you know, the only reason that this is happening is because he needs companionship. So... I don't know if he's happy. I think he just got, he's 62. Like let him just let him live.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Free Agency Hits and Misses with Sheil Kapadia, Plus Chandler Parsons and How History Will View the SGA-Jokic MVP Race
He's a normal, normal 62. He's a math guy. People would do their thesis is on, uh, Sometimes that's kind of hot, though, you know, like the professorial thing. Although I guess you're saying it's not that either.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
NFL Free Agency Hits and Misses with Sheil Kapadia, Plus Chandler Parsons and How History Will View the SGA-Jokic MVP Race

Anyway, I say all that to say that. you know, there's not a lot of secrets between me and my wife. So if I did do something like this, there's absolutely no way I wouldn't tell her right away.

NFL Free Agency Hits and Misses with Sheil Kapadia, Plus Chandler Parsons and How History Will View the SGA-Jokic MVP Race
Uh, if we were living together, you know, even if it was a few years, I'd probably try to have some sort of decency and some, you know, keep some mysteries about our relationship. I had a close call on target last weekend. True story. Um, I just had a coffee, didn't really eat a ton, and was looking at some T-shirts. And it just kind of happened. I texted my wife, who was in a different section.

Their Scovilles are way off, yeah. I got like a mango curry from this Thai place that we really like. And it was the first time we ordered it where they asked like one through five what level we want. We just usually get whatever they provide us. So my wife was like, what do we get? Because we got the same thing. I was like, well, three is like right in the middle, a little spicy, whatever.

Yeah, it seems like that receipt was him, like, chucking up a prayer, so to speak. Like he hasn't, you know, he just went 0 for 10 and the game's about to end. And he was just like, well, this one, maybe he feels like he has to answer because there's some sort of transactional thing. Totally poor planning on his part.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
Didn't really scope out the situation, but it seemed like he was just like, all right, everything else hasn't worked. Maybe if I say that there's some sort of like, you know, thing we need to settle up here, he might actually respond. And I think what you should do is power through that you know, fight through the screen. You're not, I'm not replying. I'm not responding to that.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
We don't respond to threats, whatever. And then just, and just keep it, keep it. No text. You don't get texts from me back. And then when you see him give him the $12, that way he knows you've seen his texts, but he, he will, it will click eventually. It's like, all right, this guy sees what I'm sending. He's not just one of those people that has so many texts.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
He doesn't have time for me, but that's not you saying it. He can't really get that upset. I would put his power through. Don't answer. And, you know, keep, keep a 12 bucks in your pocket and, And, um, when you see him, give it to him, but you just have, you have to, you have to stand firm here. You have to stand firm here.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
Uh, and, and not with not like overreaching and lashing back and saying, what's your problem, man, or whatever. Doesn't, doesn't need to go into an explanation why you don't want to text back. I think you just power through, stand firm, give them the 12 bucks. Um, and that's the end of that. I think you have to give it $12. This is a guy that doesn't want to learn. He'll learn eventually.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!

I told you I did. I combated weird memes with poop memes, and it worked for a while. I don't know if that guy listened or whatever. This was like a month ago. It started back up. So I don't know if the word got back to him that my strategy was out. So it turns out the poop and fart memes don't exactly turn everyone off.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!

Yeah, I was 11, 10, 11. Yeah. I had a little brother around that time. So that extended story time for me, we shared a room. So, um, it was probably supposed to be done around then. And then my little brother, you know, we started sharing a room. So, so yeah, I, I probably, you know, stop believing in Santa Claus really early, but still had bedtime stories for a while. Are you serious?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
But it was more like to him, and I was just there in the top bunk. But you had a good time. You were not into it, though, yeah. I wasn't not into it, you know? It seemed like some sort of cheat code, you know? But yeah, it was around there. But hey, I knew about Santa Claus by like five, but still had a lot of bedtime stories. Five? Yeah. And I told people to my mom, my child divorced.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
My mom was like, you know, single mom in an apartment. And my dad was remarried with the whole family. And I think I just asked her and she was just like, yeah, that's my rule. If you ask me, I'll tell you the truth. So like, boom, Santa Claus was done early. And then I went over to a Christmas party and there was a bunch of kids in the basement.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
I was like, you guys, you're not going to believe this. And then so one of the older kids ran up. She's like, Kyle's ruining Christmas for everyone. It was like a really bad Christmas party. But anyway, I knew Santa early, but, you know. definitely before my teens was done with the stories, but, um, yeah, maybe like 12. I don't know. I was, again, I was a bystander.

Can I get one thing off my chest, too? There's a bus thing I learned about recently. So from third to fifth grade, I lived directly across.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
Yeah.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
Transit, yeah. From third to fifth grade, I lived directly across from my intermediate school. So that's three to five. And my mom would not let me cross the street to do it. Like I told just walk to school. So I had to take, I was the first kid on the bus in the morning that left the school, pulled out, pick me up on the other side of the road, hour long bus.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
She always told me it was because she didn't trust me crossing the street, but the truth is she wanted to leave for work early. So she made me ride the bus. the full route of the bus. I could see the school from my bus stop. And it was, you know, it was sort of a busy road. But I learned this like probably a couple of summers ago when we were talking about it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
I was like, you just didn't trust me to trust me to cross the street. Let me like ride my bike. And she was like, I really just needed to get to work. You know what I mean? And I didn't want you in the house while I was gone. So, you know, you were out there at like six forty five in the morning. So I could leave. And I was like, this is fucking crazy. This is a conspiracy.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
Sorry for cursing that fake fifth grader. But yeah, first kid on the bus the whole route. Damn. Because she wanted to be able to leave for work early without me being like home.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Part 2: Todd McShay on Shedeur and Cam's Landing Spots, WR and RB Debates, NFL Combine Takeaways, Plus Life Advice!
Yeah. A lot of time to get up to stuff. I agree. But I just I always thought because she was like had my safety in mind. She just wanted to get out of work without me like rummaging through stuff in the house or whatever she thought I was going to be doing.

Kyle? Certainly not. I've spent so many years of my life trying to make sure I was on the shirts team to the point where I was like, should we talk to someone about getting rid of shirts and skins? What about pennies? Yeah, can we just keep a bag in some guy's truck or something? I don't know. So yeah, I'm a shirt on guy for everyone's safety. And yeah, I don't know.

Pretty much every game. I mean, the only predictable thing about the NBA playoffs is how unpredictable they'll be. And it's not just, you know, not just matchups. You'd expect a certain matchup to go a certain way. It's different players on how they react to different scenarios. Some of them first time in this kind of...

I'm not sure all the ones who've been there before who have certain expectations. To me, that's the beauty of the job. That's the beauty of the playoffs. And especially this year seems more than recent years, Ryan, in that you just don't know who's going to win from night to night. And you don't know who's going to be the star who lifts his team.

You don't know who's going to be the supporting cast member who has the game of his life. And, you know, like we saw that last night with the Celtics, Luke Cornett, who I've watched for years and is a really good player. But he comes and he's an instrumental part of a season-saving victory. And to me, that's the beauty of the NBA. It's the beauty of sports.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
But for me, the NBA to have games like that and players like that come out of nowhere, that's what brings about a lot of joy.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Yes. For example, coaches come in before every game. And sometimes they come in and they've got smiles, make jokes, talk for 10 minutes before we even get to basketball. And other times they'll come in and they'll sit down. All right, what you got? stone-faced, just want to get to business and get back to their office and cross some T's and not some I's.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
You can absolutely tell when they feel a little pressure, when there's some anxiety going in. But every coach is different. Some coaches, it doesn't matter what the situation, up 3-0, down 3-0. They're just relaxed. They're ready to go. They're prepared. Whatever happens, happens. It's not that they're not competitive.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
But that's also an interesting part of it, seeing how they handle the ups and downs of the roller coaster ride.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
No doubt. And people might think because the amount of minutes he's playing, it's a minor role. But I said all season long, you can't really judge the Knicks until Mitchell Robinson comes back. I mean, their number one weakness this year was how inconsistent their defense was. Mitchell Robinson is simply one of the best defensive players in the game.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
He's not only a rim protector and a good shot blocker, But in terms of a guy his size, his ability to handle a pick and roll is pretty amazing considering, again, his size. And in today's NBA, if you don't have that, you're going to get crushed. And Carl Anthony Towns, he's had some very good defensive games, but he's not going to be an NBA all-defensive player.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
But to have Mitchell Robinson there at certain situations, I think that's going into the series, I thought that was going to make a difference. And the other thing for the Knicks, Jalen Brunson, as we've all seen, has developed into a very special player who is one of the few that come playoff time, come the biggest moments, he's got the ability to raise his game even higher. I don't know.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
I'd love to see a medical study run on certain guys when they could take their blood pressure when it comes time in a tie game with three minutes. is to go in a playoff game because their blood pressure doesn't go any higher. It stays nice and even. They have a way to have poise. Jimmy Butler is like that. I mean, so many of the great players are like that.

Well, he is rapidly going high on the scale. You know, if they can beat the Celtics, and it certainly is not going to be easy, I think Boston still certainly has a chance to win the series. But if he gets into the conference finals, if he gets into the finals, he's got to be in the top five. You know, you can't put him past those who have won championships.

But for the younger generation, he's the greatest thing of all time. For people my age, it's always got to be Clyde and Willis and Dave DeBuscher. You know, Bernard Kane is certainly up there. And Patrick Ewing. I mean, Patrick obviously didn't win a championship, but he came close twice. So they're there now, but he is rapidly ascending that, Ryan.

Part of it, not only is it success, but the way he goes about his business. He's got such a humility about him, yet he's got that arrogant confidence when he's on the court. His team, they just look to him, and he's not a vocal leader, but they look to him to lead him because of not just the player he is, but his character as well.

When I was in college, I went to college with Mike Wicke, who's been doing Yankee games for as long as I've been doing Knicks games. And we were two college nerds, just as uncool as you can imagine. And we would sit in the Fordham cafeteria and we'd talk about, okay, if you had your dream job, what would it be? And he would say, I want to be the Yankees announcer.

And I would say, I want to be the Knicks announcer. And then our friends around us would laugh and say, you're two fools. There's no way that's going to happen. So, yes, in my college days, that would have been the dream job. Never thought it was going to happen. You know, I grew up listening to Marv and thought it would just be the coolest job.

Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Oh, both. And it's every game. And if any play-by-play guy that tells you he's not doing that, they're lying to you. For me, one of the great things, like watching the playoffs off nights. Turner has usually Monday through Thursday during the playoffs. So I'm home watching the games. We have the weekends.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And I learn stuff from other guys, not only information, but how they handle certain situations. And to me, it's one of the great things. I think right now, and I know I'm probably not objective here, I think there are so many great play-by-play voices in our industry. And not just the basketball, but just like during the NBA playoffs, it's a treat to watch and learn from some of them.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And certainly sometimes you think, okay, I've handled that situation a little differently. At other times you watch it and say, you know what, I love the way they handled that spot. That's a good way for me to think. And not that you steal, but you're influenced by what you watch on other nights.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Oh, sure. It's much harder to do radio play-by-play than TV play-by-play. There are other challenges in TV. You have to work more with your analysts. You hear more in your ear from producers and directors. But radio, you really do have to paint the picture. And And my first five years doing the NBA was strictly radio. And I found myself that first year doing TV talking too much.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And a lot of stuff, you just have to back off and let it go. I mean, it's the old expression that a viewer has never said, boy, that guy doesn't talk enough. You've never heard that complaint about an answer. And it's true. So you always have to leave time for a little air. And even when you do radio, sometimes you can't just talk and talk and talk. It just becomes an assault on the senses.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
So finding that balance is a really big part of the job. And, you know, I struggled with it at first. And then you get more comfortable with with letting the crowd take over and just back it off a little bit. Sometimes we want to let the fans at home hear how intense the crowd is. And that part just takes a while to get used to doing that.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
There's no question. To me, it's the most... underrated part of what we do is fighting that chemistry because it takes time. Every once in a while, you have somebody that instantly you connect with, but it takes time. Like a team with new players, look at Minnesota. It took them a while to get to where they are and they just stop writing. All systems go. Same thing with a broadcast team.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
It takes time. And especially when it's not a two-person booth, it's a three-person booth because the key for that, I've always felt,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
When you have two analysts, where it's a three-person booth, that chemistry between the two analysts is vital because they come from different angles, often will disagree, and they've got to be able to get to a point where, you know what, okay, I agree with that, but sometimes they have to go at each other and disagree because we don't all agree on everything.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
You know, like Mark and Jeff, for the example, there were two or three times a game where Jeff would say something and Margaret would say, what are you talking about? Are you out of your mind? They completely disagree. And that's fun for the viewer, but it's also just good, honest debate.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And I think that's important for the two analysts to get on that page where they're comfortable criticizing, comfortable disagreeing. I always tell whoever I'm working with, whether it's just one analyst or two, that if I say something on the air, that they disagree with, come at me. Tell me, no, that's not right. And we can have a debate. I might back off. I might go back.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
I think that's important to... to be able to do that and trust each other that nobody's trying to put each other down. We're just trying to have good basketball debate out there. And then the other time, you know, when it's, when it's not necessarily a point, just kind of feeling the rhythm of, like you said, feeling the rhythm of when I'm finishing a thought, when they're finishing a thought.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And sometimes it does take time. And I, you know, I think this year, last year was a hard year for Doris because she had two different games. Analyst, first doc, and then after just a handful of games, now JJ and some handful of games, and here we are in the finals. And I thought she handled it beautifully.

Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And then this year with Richard coming in, they've developed already to me a really nice chemistry where they poke fun at each other now and occasionally disagree. And, you know, Richard's so easy to go back and forth with. So I'm really pleased with the chemistry this year.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Thank you. And it's my favorite part. It gets more challenging every year because, you know, every stoppage at play, every time somebody goes to the free throw line, there are sponsors that you have to get in. You've got provos. I mean, broadcasts are so loaded with that, that you really have to be concise when you do that.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
But I think especially if it's relevant to what's going on on the court and the players involved in it, there's nothing better than hearing that. And I hope we don't get away from that because for me, when I'm watching at home, you know, I want to hear all the relevant stats and why the team is struggling against his own defense, et cetera, et cetera.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
But most of the time, the thing that I take away most are a particular story about a player and what makes him tick or what's going on in his life or something from his background. Maybe you prepared him for dealing with this particular game. To me, that's what I usually take away from. Those are the most interesting parts of telecasts.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And I'm like you, I love to hear something more about these players. I want another reason to root for these players. I want another reason to find out why maybe they're succeeding or why maybe they're struggling. And that's an important part. You know, Brian Windhorst brought up a great point recently, talking about how our access to players has decreased. Obviously, COVID changed it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
But we've never really gone back, maybe a little bit. But we used to be able to have so much access to players when the game wasn't going on, either in the locker room or bringing them back to our room.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And you would find such interesting things that made you really root for these players because of something they told you about their personal life growing up or some interaction they had with a coach or another player. And we don't have as much access as we used to. And I think that hurts overall. I mean, I know there's so much information out there.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Players have their own podcast now and get a lot of that stuff. But I hope we never go away from that because I think that's an essential part. I could not agree more with that. For me, the storylines about the individual players and coaches, that's what makes me care so much about the league.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
it was critical because it made you really have to think on your feet, had to adjust. And that's what play-by-play is. You don't know what's going to happen, so you have to be able to deal with whatever's thrown at you. And there was stuff thrown at me on a daily basis on that show.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
You know, I tell people I grew up with... I was one of six boys who not only verbally abused me, but physically abused me. So I'm a... Just verbally abusing. It was okay. I could deal with it. And I had a thick skin. But the first like six months I worked on the program, I tried to be a serious sportscaster. And he would crush me every day. I'd go home to my wife and I'd say, I can't do this.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
I can't. And then one day he said to me, listen, you can be a clown. You can be a goofball. It has no bearing on your credibility as a legitimate sportscaster. So just let it go. And him saying that to me made me a little more comfortable. And one day I just went off on him, you know, started yelling back at him, which I never thought I'd do.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And after it was over and he yelled back at me, we go to commercial, he leans over, he says, that was great. That's what I want from you every day. So it made me, it forced me to use my sense of humor more, forced me to use my personality more. And watching, it was such a talented cast on that show. Watching them perform and how they went about their business made me much, much better.

Well, I loved the show when I was growing up. I used to listen to it every morning. I was driving for them. That was what I had on my radio, so this was the greatest thing. But he was relentless, and he was so demanding to work for. Forgive me if the story's too long, but I wanted to be the villain. Don Crickey, one of the most underrated play-by-play guys of all time, he was on as a sportscaster.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And I was working on the night show. I was a producer for the sports talk show at night. But Cricky would miss every Friday and Monday during the football season, and they didn't have a fill-in. So I went to the program director, and I said to him, any chance I could fill in for Cricky, I would love to be on the Imus show.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
So he brings me back to Imus' office about 2 o'clock in the afternoon one day. And Imus was still drinking back then, and he was three sheets to the wind. And his head was down, and it his lap, and the program director said, hey, this is Mike Brain. He works at Knight. Can he film for Kriki tomorrow? And Imus, without even lifting his head, he says, yeah, that's fine.

Now get the F out of my office. That's all he said. Never even looked up. So I go in the next day and I'm so pumped. I'm going to be on the Imus in the morning show. And I sit down and Imus is to my right, Charles McCourse to my left. And Imus is staring at me while he's talking on the air. Like he has no idea who I am. And he tells Charles, he gives Charles the, hey, start talking.

Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
So Charles starts doing the news. I'm going to shut off his mic. And he leans over to me and says, holy F for you. He had no idea who I was. And when I started telling him, he puts his mic on and he goes, hold on, Charles. This kid says he's filling in for cricket. And from then on, for the next six months, he just crushed me day after day after day. But it made me stronger and it made me better.

Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Yeah, well, the call itself has to be spontaneous in terms of a particular play. But you have to put it into perspective what that play means. or what this victory is going to mean or what this loss impact could have on a player or a franchise. So if you're not have something in your head ahead of time about, all right, how am I going to phrase this? How am I going to put this into perspective?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Then you're not doing your job. And sometimes you do that while the game's going on. Sometimes you do that commercials. For example, if a team is about to make the finals for the first time in their history, Minnesota, we're doing the Western Conference Finals. Minnesota's never been to the NBA Finals.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
So if we get to a point where they're about to clinch and move on to the finals, you've got to figure out a way, okay, what's the best way to put that into perspective, not just make the call? So it's a combination of staying spontaneous, but at the same time preparing for a moment. Because it's our jobs to... I think put it in the right frame.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
It's our job to put into perspective how special these players are and what they're doing. And I always want to do it justice. It's a great responsibility. It's a responsibility that I love. But you have to make sure you're ready for the moment because you want to do it right by the players and by the team.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
So to answer your questions, the long-winded question, I should say, you absolutely have to start thinking of those things. You can't do everything just spontaneously.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
That's a hard, hard question. You know, I think game sevens, I've done a few game sevens in the finals, and those always mean so much. Ones that have direct play that has a direct impact on who wins a title. That block shot by LeBron James in 2016, if he doesn't block that shot, they probably don't win. And that changes everything. It was a magnificent play at just the most perfect time.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And then they make history by coming back 3-1 down. The Ray Allen shot, if he doesn't hit that... They don't win. I mean, I know it was only game six, but they don't win if he doesn't hit that shot. The game's over, and the Spurs are celebrating on Miami's home court. So shots like that, from a national standpoint, I would think those are two of them.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
But your point is exactly what makes it a special moment. If a team just wins, it's different. It's what leads up to that. For example, the Steph Curry, the double bang in Oklahoma City. Yeah, it was a fantastic play, but it's what led up to that game. I mean, they were on this magic carpet ride.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
He had been playing like no other player that I had seen since Michael Jordan and the way he was doing it. They were like something like 58-5 or some crazy. And they're getting crushed in Oklahoma City. Place was going crazy. He had to leave the game because of an ankle injury. We didn't even know if he was going to come back and play. And then for him to do that,
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And that was an amazing game, but it wasn't just the shot. It's what went up to the shot, like you said. So those are some of the moments. I also, this is going to sound corny, but my first Olympics when I was broadcasting for NBC in 96, it was at the Georgia Dome. And the women were the, they had not lost in like three years leading up to it. They won the gold medal. Fantastic story.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And I remember the place had 45,000 people. And they raised the American flag for the gold medal ceremony. And I think 40,000 or however many were in there sang the national anthem. And it was like such an emotional thing for me. My first Olympics, I watched Olympics as a kid with my father and my brothers.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
And to be in that arena and finish up my first Olympic broadcast of a gold medal game and have 40,000 people singing the national anthem at the top of their lungs, for some reason, that always sticks in my head when people ask me about some favorite moments. That's a long time ago, and it certainly has nothing to do with the actual sport, but that's something that sticks out.

Julius Randle’s Playoff Turnaround. Plus, Mike Breen on Where Brunson Ranks as a Knick, His Favorite Broadcasting Moments, and Being the Voice of the NBA.
Yeah, Ryan, you've mentioned some that are always involved in it. By the way, for me, Madison Square Garden is the most special arena, but it wasn't the loudest. The loudest arena I've ever been in is the old Chicago Stadium. That place was just off the charts. United Center is great, but Chicago Stadium is the loudest arena I've ever been in.

How do we know that this is, he just found a business card in a desk? Maybe the last name matches up with the lady who dropped it off, but I'm like, how could you be so sure that this is the man?

about maybe the timing of it. Like, are we going to do it soon? Like sometimes like the, the magic is gone and they know it's coming, but they don't know when sometimes that, you know, you're just going to completely throw them off.

But, you know, if it's important to her that her, you know, her sister and her best friends and they're like, oh, my God.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
And then you guys go have dinner or whatever. I don't know. I think you maybe see if you can find out what kind of. things she would prefer.

Yeah, as a guy who went in 2018 and probably the best day of my life so far, really, really awesome. I check every year. I'm just going to power through this. I check every year to see if I can get in. I'm in the real lottery. I look on the secondary markets and it's like, I'd really like to bring my dad because that's what Bill did when I went. And I was like, wow, what a great moment.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
And then I went and dropped him off somewhere that I couldn't go. But I like... I would really, I always check every year to come back and I, and I'm just here to tell you it's hard. And then you get the tickets and you're like, boy, I hope we have some place to stay. And that's maybe even harder, I think. So, um, No, it's not bad at all. I mean, per Cerruti's Abercrombie comeback, I checked.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
And it turns out I actually like Abercrombie now. When I was in middle school, early high school, definitely different vibes. The story even smells different. But they sell a bunch of cool throwback stuff. And yeah, I was not at the Athens Olympics. And I don't really care if you feel one way or another when I wear that throwback shirt. So I look at it the same way. It's really hard to get there.

Like, Abercrombie, they have... They just have, like, a bunch of... They have, like, a throwback edition where they're... It's like that retro logo line. Yeah, it's the retro logos. They look a little faded, you know?

So, like, you know, maybe to the untrained eye, you could fool someone into thinking that this was my dad's Atlanta Olympics shirt or something, you know, from the 90s or, you know, the Greece one is the one I ended up buying. So... I don't know. I just don't, I don't think I should have to explain that either.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
Or if I do explain it, I don't think you should be able to be like, wow, dude, you didn't even go. It's not sports stolen valor. It's just an event. That's cool. And the shirt's cool too.

Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
How can you do? It sounds like your dad gave you some great advice. And I'm a big proponent of breaking up when you leave that point of higher education or even high school. I'm a proponent of that anyway. And I know there's exceptions, but I think that's a great natural breaking point to go see what kind of dude or...
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
chick is that the equivalent of dude you are uh at the next stage in your next city at your next job uh whatever that is so i'd i'd lean i'd lean towards you know this is a natural breakup point um but i don't think it's because of the mother law and i think your dad gave you some good advice basically be like don't be like me man we had some big big problems and a lot of it was from this i don't think it was don't be like me i think it was more of you you'll find a way
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
you'll find a way to, well, he said he had some major problems and she was at the center of it. And he had, you know, I think he, like he said, he's learned to accept it, but it sounded like it took a while and maybe it was a little rocky in the beginning. And he was like, man, I wish I could have that one back if I just didn't fight that battle.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins
But yeah, you being cold and like that, you're not the only one who knows. Like, even if you think you're being sneaky about it, like the third time you cancel on something, even if you have good reasons, they're going to be like, does something wrong with Todd? Is everything fine?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Luka’s Homecoming, an NFL Draft QB Breakdown With Quincy Avery, and Cincinnati Basketball GM Corey Evans Joins

The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Are the Knicks Actually Better? Plus, Haliburton’s Likability, OKC’s Dominant Game 2, and the Warriors' Chances Without Steph With Jorge Sedano
It's about the lease timing, right? Because if I got a two year lease, I'm not going to say it before like a year and a half, you know, maybe, maybe she'll move in with you beforehand.

She went live downtown for a year. I stayed on the Upper East Side. And then I think she moved into the Upper East Side apartment with me. Yeah, I sent her downtown. Yeah. Doing our time downtown until I was ready. It was also COVID, so that was a weird little factor, too.

You maniac. Right. It sucks so bad because if this guy wasn't a direct, you know, your direct report or whatever, somebody who can influence your career. The office in general could just have this whole understanding that no one's going to shake his hand, and then he'll just kind of be shamed into getting the hint. That, to me, is the best way.

A CFB View of This NFL Draft With Bruce Feldman. Plus, How Dangerous Are the TWolves, With Jon Krawczynski.
Yeah. Everyone's just like, whoa.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A CFB View of This NFL Draft With Bruce Feldman. Plus, How Dangerous Are the TWolves, With Jon Krawczynski.
I have to say, like, the... There's probably plenty of people in the world that don't wash their hands. I think we all like to say that we do and we're good people, that we put the shopping cart back. But when no one's watching, I'm sure there are people, a good percent of the population that don't.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A CFB View of This NFL Draft With Bruce Feldman. Plus, How Dangerous Are the TWolves, With Jon Krawczynski.
But the arrogance to do it when multiple people have just been like, yeah, I saw him walk out, just not a hand washer. To do it in front of people is nuts. Is this an HR issue? Is there like a Toby in your office that you can just kind of put this on and have him be the bad guy?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A CFB View of This NFL Draft With Bruce Feldman. Plus, How Dangerous Are the TWolves, With Jon Krawczynski.
And just say, maybe there's a company-wide email just saying, hey, like, there's been a lot of word of hygiene and people, you know, there's extra, we're putting extra soap in the bathrooms now. Like, maybe just pass it off on them. And that way, at least there's some sort of, like, you know, it's out there for everyone to know and everyone knows what it's about.

The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A CFB View of This NFL Draft With Bruce Feldman. Plus, How Dangerous Are the TWolves, With Jon Krawczynski.
Would an anonymous email just work? You just created like a fake Gmail account. You got the guy's email and just say, hey, man, I know. I've seen. We've been talking about it. I don't know. I'm not an IP expert. I don't know if he could trace that back to you. Maybe he can. Maybe it's a bad idea.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
A CFB View of This NFL Draft With Bruce Feldman. Plus, How Dangerous Are the TWolves, With Jon Krawczynski.
Yeah. Somebody would probably email, but. you basically just have to let the guy, I mean, he might not care again. He probably doesn't care if he's like, you know, if we're talking, you know, boomer, maybe he's about to be retired or something. Who knows? That guy probably does not care at all.

I don't know. I don't get it. I really don't. I don't understand. Just live your life, man. Like you don't really owe her anything. I mean, it's nice that you guys are cordial, but I don't know.

A CFB View of This NFL Draft With Bruce Feldman. Plus, How Dangerous Are the TWolves, With Jon Krawczynski.
Yeah. I thought like maybe she was like constantly trying to get back together with this guy and he's saying, keep saying no. And then once he starts dating someone, it's going to be like really real for her, but it doesn't, that's not what it sounds like. Cause in that case, yeah, that probably would be like in her mind, you haven't even broken up yet, but that's not what this is.

Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
Like, like Mickey Mouse became that way. And now people are making like horror movies with the old timey Mickey Mouse and like Winnie the Pooh. It's just like 100 years old and you can just pervert it any way you want. Yeah. You know, sometimes 100 and then somebody's going to do something weird with it. So I guess that applies to children's books, too.

Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
I'm not going to cover the second one. If this is going to launch into a full, you know, you got 30 minutes to sext and we're going to close the door, that's a whole different thing. Not going to get into that. Then I think you maybe get a little more in depth with your answers. Maybe you see the bubbles, the text bubbles going for a little longer before you respond.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
But I think if this is just like a, this is a fun point of my day. I think maybe to keep it light, it's like emojis and GIFs. I was thinking maybe the Chris Pratt emoji from Parks and Rec where he's like, like that one. You know what I mean? You want to show you're excited. Yeah, you want to show you're excited, but you don't want to, you know, over talk. What about Chris Pine?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
Um, yeah, I mean hotter, but I don't know. I don't know if like, uh, if he's doing anything with his face that would warrant replying to an impromptu nude. But I think, I think emojis, maybe like a thank you, smiling face, something like that. Uh, if you guys have been together longer than that, I would say like a, maybe throw a love you in there, but he said it's new.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
So maybe that would be a weird time to say the first, I love you. Uh, but yeah, I like, I'm like keeping it light, showing that you're happy. Um, the, the very formal, like, uh, you know, thank you, ma'am. Uh, and a good day to you.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
Correct. Correct. I think hearts, the heart eyes, just, like, showing her that, like, she took a step, and you don't want, like, that kind of spontaneity to be crushed, which it sounds like you may have just crushed it. She's like, well, I'm never doing that again. So I think you want to show that you're excited without, like, being a creep.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
But, yeah, I think emojis, like a thank you, whatever, would be good. but not the Dwight Schrute, it is your birthday, period, banner, right?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.

How are you going to pull it off?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
Yeah, I think the overt way is definitely the approach. Definitely bring it out. Be like, listen, I can tell, I can feel that something's off. And for multiple reasons, let's talk about it. You can even be like... you know, I'm a people pleaser. Sorry. Like I, uh, these people are attached to your family and we're going to be, uh, you know, this is a forever thing as far as I'm concerned.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
So, you know, uh, I didn't, I didn't want, uh, weird feelings with, you know, somebody attached to your brother. So I just, I just tried to keep the peace and, and it seemed okay. Um, So I think you could just, you can like go that way. It's like, dude, I was, I was doing this cause I want to feel like a part of this family and whatever.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
Like I, obviously I didn't know all this other stuff and we could talk about whatever you want, but just, you know, maybe, maybe there's a way to seem like you were a good guy. Maybe you were just like, listen, I didn't want her to go by herself. She was, she was buzzed. I was just making sure everything was okay.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
Uh, I think there's, there's a ways to show that you're a good guy in this situation as well as like, Hey, say what you got to say because, uh, we can't, I don't know if it's been a month has passed, if it's just been a couple of weeks, but like, that's a, that's a gross feeling when they're just acting different and you're like, until this is solved, it's just going to be this.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.
It's not going to, it's not going to fall away. So I think definitely your, your go on the offensive, bring this up instead of, you know, how many passive aggressive things can be exchanged between you two before somebody starts yelling about it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart as QB2? Plus, Senior Bowl Takeaways With Todd McShay and a Memphis-Portland-All Star Tales from the Couch.

Yeah. Well, I would want to know what her follower count is. Like, is it real or is it not real? Because to your point, Kyle, it is always kind of funny. Like when you see like the dominoes fall of someone, you know, like, oh, they're going the influencer route. get 800 followers. You're doing that now. It's a little bit... I don't know. It's a little awkward at the beginning.

Conference Title Game Picks With Sheil Kapadia. NFL Coach Hiring Drama With Dianna Russini. Plus What’s Up With the Celtics?
I mean, it sounds stupid, but it's like anything. Are there other red flags in the relationship? If everything is cool and it's good and you guys get along, everything you said, if this makes her feel good, it's probably really harmless. And you know, she wants to post some pictures and have people like her and start following like, and that makes her feel better about her life.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Conference Title Game Picks With Sheil Kapadia. NFL Coach Hiring Drama With Dianna Russini. Plus What’s Up With the Celtics?
And let, let, you know, I think, I think you kind of got to ignore it. It's good. Like I said, as Kyle said, it's good. You're not on social media. It's kind of like Ryan, we used to talk about like, there are shows, there are like podcasts that like do shows based on just like what Twitter says, like what the reaction is. And those are like the worst things. Cause it's not really real.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Conference Title Game Picks With Sheil Kapadia. NFL Coach Hiring Drama With Dianna Russini. Plus What’s Up With the Celtics?
Like you shouldn't react or be a boyfriend based on, you know, what shit you see on your girlfriend's Instagram account because that's just going to make you miserable. And it's going to inevitably lead to you breaking up because nobody can really probably handle that. So I would just kind of keep on keeping on and just, you know, maybe just keep your head in the sand and hope for the best.

Maybe you guys are thinking I'm wrong, but Are you also trying to move in with the ex to get away from your dad? Hopefully those are two very separate things. You shouldn't be doing that because you think it's going to be a better situation. There's nothing added there. I hope it works out for you.

Uh, but last year, I think it was either last year or two years ago. Uh, so Rudy was involved cause he's my manager. And I just told him like, Hey, might have jury duty today.

I think, Ryan, you're right. You just got to sharpen this until it's just, you know, you're just quick on the draw with it and you're happy with how it sounds. And yeah, I don't know. I think like what he said, when I'm QBing your sales, you're going to be happy or whatever. Like that's too bad. And you have a starting point and you just whittle it down until it's a absolute katana of a weapon.

I just think back to that Michael Jordan commercial where it's the old white guy who's, and the guy's waiting to pick him up at the airport with the Michael Jordan sign. He's like, oh, I mean, there's a real sentiment there where it's just like, you know, but I mean, that's, people aren't confusing him. They're just like dudes at work being annoying. So I don't know. I like Ryan's idea.

It could be something way worse too. Like it could be, you know, it could be Wayne Gretzky or something, you know, it's like, it's not, it's not the great off time, right?

I just think that's what it is. If you're not going to hyphenate or put your middle initial in there. What would be the worst athlete name to share? I'm trying to think. Richie Incognito?

The Hockey Was Fun! But Are the NBA Comps Fair? Plus, Wemby’s Future and the Perfect NBA Starting Five With Kirk Goldsberry.
You could frame it maybe as just like, hey, just want to make sure if you're, you know, love that you're happy. Just want to make sure that you've, you know, you're not leaving yourself exposed here and maybe get a little prenup together or something like that. Like, yeah, does he have any money? And in that way, you can just say your concerns.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Hockey Was Fun! But Are the NBA Comps Fair? Plus, Wemby’s Future and the Perfect NBA Starting Five With Kirk Goldsberry.
But it's like, as long as you have the prenup, because here's what I'm worried about. But as long as you have that good, I'm not I'm not saying you're making a huge mistake. And you just use that like helpful way of saying your concerns. But like, but if you get this, then, you know, I don't really see an issue. The other thing is like, what's the what's the new administration like?
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Hockey Was Fun! But Are the NBA Comps Fair? Plus, Wemby’s Future and the Perfect NBA Starting Five With Kirk Goldsberry.
Is the new administration have any new rules about this? Because I know they're doing some certainly doing some intake stuff that's different. I wonder if there's like I just I don't know me. I think really the best part was just trying to dance around. Just walking on eggshells. I just think the best thing would be, like, form it that you're, you know. Don't do it.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
The Hockey Was Fun! But Are the NBA Comps Fair? Plus, Wemby’s Future and the Perfect NBA Starting Five With Kirk Goldsberry.
Hey, great idea, but, like, make sure you're safe. Because otherwise, I think it could, he might just turn it off to the whole thing. It's like, you're a non-supportive person. What does the Scientologist call those people? Suppressive people or something? You don't want to come off as a suppressive person. I don't know. you don't want to come off as a suppressive person or something.

So you just, you, you get what you got to say out through the guys of being helpful instead of being like, what are you fucking insane? Because that guy probably turns his ears off when you say that.

The Hockey Was Fun! But Are the NBA Comps Fair? Plus, Wemby’s Future and the Perfect NBA Starting Five With Kirk Goldsberry.
Just send him a link from LegalZoom and just be like, here, boilerplate prenup. There's my blessing. Just make sure you get that done.

Yeah. The other thing is, it's like a five-year rule, right? This has to stand for five years. She can't bounce and just be out and about, right? I think there's like a certain amount of time you have to stay married because I think that's one of the things they put on. Like service time in baseball. Yeah.

Yeah, I always thought the baddest MF-er was the tetanus shot. I didn't realize there was multiple parts to rabies. Tetanus was like, you know, two years. I got to get to, I think it was like, what is it, every 10 years? So like around 11, I was like, oh man, my time's coming. I'm going to be done. What? because everyone's like, Oh, you get sore.

Is this a perk? Dude, this unit, this isn't this guy's friends. Just seeing if he takes the bait. You don't think that's what this is. That's gotta be what it is. Or like, just like a group of the regular guys in the bar. Like, uh, let's see if Tommy bites on this one. Cause if he does, they'll have whatever the fuck he's texting or whoever he's called. I can't see this being real.

Construction workers in a bar, anything within a certain radius. So what would you do, Kyle? What would you do? I think I'm leaving it. Even if I'm curious, I'm like, I can't give these guys a win. I cannot give these guys a win. And I might forego something great. And maybe that's something I got to work on.

But I come from a friend group that does hijinks and likes to make guys feel bad about themselves in short spurts. And then it's all love after that. But I would just... I don't know. I think it's just I got too much of that ingrained in me that I wouldn't even sniff this out. What's the upside, too? Like, what's the percentage chance that she's actually some normal hot chick?

No, I echo that guy's sentiments. And I said this on the pod, like you had multiple reasons to bail. I would have bailed at the first reason. And you did it. So I align with that guy.

Yeah, I think the time to do it was at the reunion or a week or two after. And you're like, hey, I saw you. If this has been months away, I don't think you're going to get a good reception from it. And I could be wrong.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Matt Leinart’s Favorite NFL Playoff QB and Notre Dame-Ohio State Pick, Plus the SGA Show in Cavs-Thunder
It just seems like the in-person thing would have been the best case scenario if you want to get this off your chest a week or two after being like, hey, you know, seeing you really made me think if this has been like six months ago or longer. I would just kind of let sleeping dogs lie. I think you learned a valuable lesson already. I think you got that part. You feel gross. You have kids.
The Ryen Russillo Podcast
Matt Leinart’s Favorite NFL Playoff QB and Notre Dame-Ohio State Pick, Plus the SGA Show in Cavs-Thunder
You're like, I definitely don't want my kids to be bullies and I definitely don't want them to be bullied. So I think you kind of got all the learning stuff you wanted to get out of this. And I just, I don't think if more than a certain amount of time has passed, I just don't think you're going to get uh, any sort of closure from this unless you're just like, I just need it to be said.

If you want her to feel better about it, like knowing that you feel bad, I don't, I just, I don't know if this is going to happen. If this was, you know, a year or so ago and it's just like, it's, it was already, it would have been random at the 10 year reunion or whatever it is. If it's 10, if it's 12 years later, just for no reason, I don't know. I just kind of let it lie.
