And when it comes to trades and trying to figure it out, start with your ideal trade first, and then you just have to work backwards from there. And as I know from learning from the texts that were leaked during the hacking scandal with the Cardinals and the Astros, that's pretty much what happens. Like, they are shoot or shoot. They'll be like, hey... Can I have Giancarlo Stanton?
Yeah, for a unicorn and a billion dollars in gold coins. Or, you know, something. But you have to ask because you just never know. Kind of like with Rob Palenka and Nico Harrison. He's like, you know what would be crazy is if you guys traded Luca. I mean, we'll take him off your hands. And then look what happens. Right, right. Go for the 10.
So because of that, I talk about some wild trade ideas and then I go from there. And we talk about Max Crosby because dare to dream and then go from there. It's one thing if you do it. It's one thing if I do it. Ray just says Max every now and then just because that's how much he's on his mind. Max, you guy. Ray will just be sitting there looking off into space and then suddenly Max.
How about Irish dancing with Max? Oh, yeah. He'd be your dance partner. We're really going to bring this thing to fruition, man. See, now that Robbie's not here to write things down, Gertie's just gone completely nilsong. I have. Well, I'm enjoying Ray's Irishness today with the shamrock shake, and you made a couple of Irish references. Welcome, Ray. Tanny's just laughing in the background.
Chris Tannehill. Tanny Irish? You're not hearing the Irishness, too? Yeah? What? He said what? Tanny said his culture is not my costume. Sorry, Tanny. I just love the shamrock shake. I said that to a friend who posted a pic of a puka shell necklace that looked like it was from 2002. And I was like, my culture is not your costume.

Chapter 2: What are the implications of the Bears pursuing Max Crosby?
Puka. Nakua. Nakua. That's the answer. Max. See, there we go again. Max! This is how it is. Get that man here. So, you know, this is us. Romper room, whatever you want to call it. Yeah. Kids table. That's us. We own it. Feel good about it. You're just jealous you're not sitting here at the kids table with us. You know who I don't think is jealous since it's at the adults table and likes it there?
Brad Biggs.
Chapter 3: How do trade discussions typically unfold in the NFL?
You think Biggs would not want to sit at the kids table? Brad Biggs is about business. He doesn't want to mess with us being silly. I think Biggs would love to sit in here with us. No, Biggs has a sense of humor. There's no doubt about that. I know he does. Like Brad. I just feel like I would just waste his time. Well, not if he was, but he understands. He's hosted four-hour radio shows before.
He understands that there's going to be times when it's just going to be fun times and we're going to be talking about one-arm guys. I think Brad gets that. Well, I know he gets it. I love Brad as the Sox fan. That's always my favorite plot twist. Brad's a great baseball fan. He is. He's fun to talk baseball. He's not very positive about the Cubs, that's for sure.
Brad would be excited to hear about Sam Antonacci. Let me tell you about Sam Antonacci and the Verducci brothers. Sam Antonacci and the Verducci brothers. Is it Vertucci? Hawkisms. Shout out to the Antonacci family in Springfield in Sacred Heart Griffin. Oh, my goodness, yes. So, as we were saying, got a little off topic. But the point is, Brad Biggs, what he says has weight.
And it's one thing for us to talk about the possibility of Max Crosby. It's another for us to gauge the price. Diana Rossini confirmed it earlier today at The Athletic. But Brad Biggs, Brad Biggs put some fuel to the fire on this Max Crosby dream of ours. The Bears are either keeping a close eye on the Max Crosby situation and potentially involved, or someone out there,
is doing a really good job of convincing a bunch of folks that that's the case. Okay? You follow me there? Maybe the individual's doing that, perhaps being Clark County, Nevada. I don't know. But there's a sense that the Bears are involved. Yeah, but to what price, right? And I don't think that's something that the Bears know now. or the Raiders know. I think Dallas is involved.
If you listen to people and the Cowboys, if you've been following some of that, I think they're really getting aggressive with some of their cap stuff to create space in an effort to win now. They're not kicking the can down the street with the cap. They're kicking the dumpster down the street. It's going to get really full there in Dallas at some point. But Jerry Jones...
God bless his heart, is out to prove that he hasn't been a loser to Cowboy fans for the past 30 years, and he wants to saddle up and ride for a Super Bowl.

Chapter 4: What factors influence the Bears' trade strategy for Max Crosby?
So I would think they would be a team to watch out for, potentially, with Crosby. The bless his heart was the truth. Yeah. You talking about Jerry Jones? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, that'd be something to see, though, wouldn't it? Parsons and Crosby. Like, allow yourself to just think about the aggression. Ooh. Well, that's why I actually think that the intangibles come into play here.
Not anymore, though, obviously. Why do you say that? You're saying them on the same team. Yeah, if they had had that opportunity. I was thinking them on the same division. Oh, well, there's that, yes. Because Max. Yeah. Max. So... I think there's a couple things at play here.
Number one, I believe Brad Biggs when he says that Jerry Jones is after Max Crosby because that was some scuttlebutt at the trade deadline. And Jerry is talking in a way... He did a recent interview where he was seated at some... What looked like a cafe or something.
And he's just talking about... It wasn't, but it was that kind of scene where he was talking about how much he wishes he could win another Super Bowl. And... What I saw was a guy who realizes he may not have a ton of time left to go witness another Super Bowl. He's 80 what? I got to look it up. He's in his 80s.

Now, God willing, he has a much longer life after this.
But I think there comes a time for a lot of owners where, especially the ones who are emotionally attached to their team that way. You saw it a lot in baseball, too, where guys would just stop at nothing because they wanted to see their team win. But in baseball, it's a little more easy to spot because there's no salary cap. Nice. That's not the case here.
All of that said, after moving $47 million off of the cap and restructuring two contracts, including Dak Prescott's in Dallas this morning, reportedly, Cowboys would still be $9 million over. So where in there are you squeezing the $35.8 million? That's why they're dragging a dumpster. Or how did he put it? You're kicking the dumpster down the road. Exactly. It's not a can. It's a dumpster.
