What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. We're in Geo Company Live, the Build Forward Tough studio. On the fan end, CBS Sports Network on a feel-good football Friday. Red Pocket Mobile fan line brought to you by your new ultimate cell carrier, Red Pocket Mobile, 888-208-1019. Puss Puss is a magazine. It's a fashion magazine.
Oh, okay. That's right. That's what it was.
I didn't hear it. I only heard part of it. Yeah, no. It was Eddie playing the What Does Puss Puss Drop. Just if you had forgotten what Puss Puss was. Yes. That's what it is. Okay. So here is your John Gruden update. And this is nuts. So the headline is John Gruden's attorneys. Seek testimony from Roger Goodell, owners. Yeah, this is all about discovery. This is not where the NFL, the owners, and Roger Goodell want to go. So, John Gruden's attorneys will seek testimony from NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and at least four current and former NFL owners in his lawsuit over whether the league leaked the emails that forced his departure as Raiders head coach. So... Gruden's list includes, to summon, Goodell, former NFL counsel Jeff Pasch, former Commander's owner Dan Snyder, Raiders owner Mark Davis, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, Patriots owner Bob Kraft.
Gruden's list also includes designees of the Jets, the Giants, the Seahawks, and the Dolphins. Well, I wonder why that is. I don't know. That's interesting. So... So explain to me. This is all about discovery. It's all about getting guys in front of microphones and being asked questions, embarrassing questions about different things. And so to me, I told you that he is incredibly competitive. Now, this isn't on the football field. This is in life.
What is Jon Gruden's legal battle with the NFL about?
And his reputation was ruined. Yeah. Yeah. So this is my question. Is this, like you're saying, competitive, like running a play? Is this the play where they're expecting because they don't want to do this and he's throwing Kraft and he's throwing Jones and he's throwing Snyder in there? All these guys that the NFL's like, we can't do this. Here's a settlement. Let's finally talk settlement. Yeah, I don't know. It's gotten to a point now where he's really relevant because of his relationship with Barstool. He's back in the mix. He's back in the media. He's doing his thing. Really interesting situation here. I mean, he can either go full nuclear, which it feels like he's doing. Yeah. Or there is some sort of at least repayment of the salary that he lost from the Vegas Raiders when neither he stepped away or they fired him.
Yeah, or whatever, how that happened. And these emails were while he was an analyst. He wasn't working for an NFL team at that time. I can't get into a man's head. All I know is that... Just imagine that you're John Gruden, and we all love him as a coach. I love them as an analyst. His intensity is shown even more so now today with Barstool because you see the real John Gruden there. Sure. And I think that they have embraced him, and they've given him a platform to kind of rebuild who he was, which is great. But I also think that this is his opportunity, and I would liken it very much to what's going on in politics in our country these days. Okay. Where you're going to go after me. You're going to ruin me.
You're going to try to embarrass me. You're going to try to do all this stuff to me and my family. Guess what? Now it's my turn to get my pound of flesh back, if you will. That's what it feels like. Yeah. By the way, you can get in a man's head. You were in my head today, and you got a bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel. You were in my head. So you might not be able to get in Gruden's head. Right. You got in my head. Well, you were in there dancing around. I sit next to you every morning. You were dancing around. You better be able to get in your head. Yeah. So just, I mean, I... I don't think, and this is tough because there's just a lot of things we don't know about this, but it doesn't seem to me like the NFL and Roger Goodell would have orchestrated the leak of the emails to get Gruden out.
It feels like it's Dan Snyder who did it.
