Over this on Monday oh yeah oh yeah a man of the Pontiac people I’m the Meek Mill of Pontiac just so everybody knows why do you laugh at that bro it’s it’s just a funny comparison Meek Mill of of Pontiac what does that even mean like are you just riding around Pontiac on
Your four-wheeler just just rapping like what does that mean I don’t regularly but if I wanted to I could I can see that I can see that you know like like when dmac when dmac goes out to any if we’re at Arts Beats and eats doing a
Show or whatever yeah and the people just walk up to dmac when he’s mid-sentence on the air but you know he holds court and that’s the way it is that’s when I have to step in and kind of pick up this that’s the way that it
Works he’s a man of the people I am you know I’m a little lower you know I’m a little lower on the totem pole but no less important if that makes any sense okay what did I just tell you in the other room there right if they get to
Me right Neil understands that the most yeah 100% man that’s the thing but yeah that’s uh Nick Williams hey I’m in Pontiac as we speak I work in the city there shout out p man shout out dante1 Pimp My Ride in flavor love we’re fun shows to watch that was VH1 Flor oh
Oh that was VH1 yeah that’s not was MTV but flavor Love Flavor love VH1 Dante 151 absolutely Detroit staple now he’s at like every pist game uh Dante 151 thank you for getting me back on track by the way I I don’t know do people still know MTV can we put it in
The chat poll do do do people still know about MTV and and my thing with it is is as far as SPO hey that godam a printer in the back you need freaking ink and stuff SP any way to go I knew you’d figure it out I mean
Did you get any ink on your hands you did nice job nice job no but but the but the question remains because I I won’t be in tomorrow I’ll be in Pittsburg with Oakland first place Oakland Golden Grizzlies um I find myself because we get a little Gap in
The day between like 1 and three where you’re just kind of hanging out in the hotel room kind of just waiting to go and go to the game yeah so you through the TV and my staple is Ridiculousness yeah if it’s on I’ll watch it I don’t
Care but isn’t that they run ridiculous this 24- hours yeah that’s all MTV is now MTV’s been dead for quite a long time um it’s the land of the television rerun um sp’s favorite Chanel West Coast I just right I don’t even think she’s on there anymore but um yeah man it’s
Mostly like Rob Deer day uh reruns and I they have other shows too but it’s mostly just reruns Jersey Shore things of that nature I would see a lot of Jersey commercials I never watch it though cuz I I just watch Ridiculousness then I go to work and then I never come
Back to it but I do watch it though um Chad fiser MTV effed up with the stupid non music shows did it Chad or was it its greatest time you know I don’t know yeah they got away from doing like music shows cuz of course you have like ’90s
MTV that’s that’s synonymous but even my era MTV you had uh yo MTV Raps Rap City yeah like you you had Rap City you had like really like music shows even you know through my early era of like the early 2000s but now they gotten away from that there’s no real music they
Never play music anymore yes it’s no TRL there’s no anything like that Carson D Matt head bangers ball I like yeah Banger ball you know what I’m talking about though right DM like when when you got to gain that little Gap you have between one and three you know you
Can only nap for so long you’re waiting to eat your pregame before you go over to the arena what was what was your what was your think so it was Headbangers ball what else oh on MTV you just in general what did you do to kill that Gap no you know
What it was and this was absolutely 10 years as drapes and I room together because on the road right you’d have pregame skate at 11:30 come back you’d have a meal you’d be back in your hotel room 1:00 Days of Our Lives baby 1 to
Two nap 2 to four get up go to the game but Days of Our Lives was a Ridiculousness no it was your ridiculousness hope and Billy back in the day you know what I’m talking about SPO you still know about MTV or not yeah yeah I mean I
Don’t watch it anymore but back in the day they they had that stretch run of shows like um next and like uh the one house hunter or house Invaders hinin big was the best oh that’s right Robin big a Viva laam ja yeah you had it all man my ride
Was great I heard you like PS2 so we put a PS2 in your PS2 so you play PS2 while you’re playing PS2 the best shout out exhibit the people want to know uh Stephen cyr at Spenny were you printing your tax returns uh no I was stuck in traffic

Five list top five colors y it’s a good one colors colors colors ad’s 411 MTV Cribs beas and Butthead yeah be and but oh cribs is great I used to watch cribs all the time yeah it’s good it’s good shut up be Robert Robert colia real world then it
Jumped the shark the real world was kind of like the line right like once real world came in that was like the beginning of the end even the the first real world the first couple seasons was good p d’s Making the Band yeah yeah Making the Band um yeah they had shows
Even the non music shows were just better quality back then but now reality TV is just it’s so streamlined and the shows dropped in quality because of that so I need you go down the Bronx and give me the breast milk of Cambodian I love that D pill that’s hilarious uh Nick to
Find Express mil don’t forget about Fab Five Freddy oh yeah well you you’re on waiting yeah I do I I like it so uh no it is it’s just one of those things top five MTV VJs it it it’s funny how a hat can give you a segment like that just that old
MTV logo man celebrity death oh watch reruns of that you know what’s funny like so good that was like Robot Chicken before robot Chi it was yeah I I don’t think it was the the non-music shows I think it was just they couldn’t keep up that line of
Quality yeah that that that like that’s what it was they’re bangers bangers back in the ’90s cuz we all forgot like individually we all forgot about all these you know what I’m saying one of my favorites Viva laam was my f i was locked into via all the time man his
Poor and Phil Poor Dad Phil Poor Dad dude the one where he painted their entire kitchen blue and like even the bananas my favorite was when they they’d hook up the uh the guitar with the super Mega speaker and go in the room and wake
Each other up oh yeah I don’t know what it is about waking somebody up that’s so funny man shore was not severely overrated no it was Shore was an iconic they kept the lights on at MTV that was like the last real staple show that they had was Jersey Shore yeah love Jersey
Shore yeah Tough Enough is getting some love oh yeah Tough Enough the original Tough Enough used Nicholas Duncan now this one I watched on accident because I slid it in behind beas and Butthead all the time and I found myself myself I did watch a couple episodes of it Daria yeah
Daria was good uh slow down yeah it was good it was good slow down what I mean what was bad about it it wasn’t good if you if you like King of the Hill you should like Dar it’s that kind of like dry older comedy like but King of
The Hill was like great so I don’t was okay I’m not a king of the hill guy like like King of the H I don’t not like it but like noing get a hill is hilarious that episode where Bobby walked around kicking people in
The nuts he took a women self to F know that’s still some great TV there good uh but yeah all right great trip down memory lane there for sure um Jonathan Jones uh Neil thinks those shows were real Viva laam Etc yeah no Jonathan they were they were absolutely
Real I think theam had some elements of realism toam was real he was really just being an [ __ ] time went on it was got more scripted right that’s where it and that’s where it fell off see we figured it all out that’s where it fell off I I
Am with you like the viil like when you shoot yourself in a catapult across a river you can’t F like the jackass [ __ ] I mean you see like bunch of idiots right but that stuff you can’t you can’t fake that with what they’re doing yeah absolutely Kurt loer getting some love
Too so so there is that one out there as well all right Lions made some roster moves yesterday the first of and if and it was funny because like all of a sudden here’s where I know the people that watch Big D energy because all of a
Sudden did you guys see this like lions Twitter and lions media was set Ablaze that they released Tracy Walker we I told you this back in November we talk about it uh the other day yesterday at filming we was talking about it 100% man like I don’t I don’t know why everybody
Was stunned about it but I do want to talk about it’s just another example of something we’re going to get there to that I want to talk about the Brad Holmes draft philosophy I I fir I took my first look at mock drafts and stuff like that and I’m I’m zagging when

And uh the poll do people still know about the old school MTV glad to hear dmax 77% of the people say yes so that’s good good we’re not as old as we think we are no and and it was a lot better than we gave it credit for I think after
We talked all this through so so there’s that out there remote control that’s ah yes ah yes it is a top five Wednesday as we said top five colors coming up in just a little bit uh but dmac Lions made some moves yesterday or made kind of their first kickoff move I
I saw some people were surprised if you watch this show you were not surprised we foreshadowed that uh Tracy Walker released say $5.5 million in cap space uh the people he he is going to cost 7.3 million against the cap though this year but dmac that’s the nature of this Beast
Guys get hurt and that’s how it works and look at who spot who’s replacing him and who came in and replaced him Brian branch and you know you have different guys there so you know unfortunately uh it was great to see Tracy Walker come back right I mean did what Tracy Walker
Does delivered some you know big hits at different times but again wasn’t part of the future and this is what happens you got to look to save money and this is this time of the year releasing guys and it has nothing to do with the type of uh
Player in person Tracy Walker is it’s just it happens I mean it happens there are moving forward he wasn’t part part of moving forward so he’s going to save you 5 and a half million that’s what you got to look at it like thanks for the
Give back yeah no on your way out so but best of luck he’ll he if he’s healthy in somebody he’ll he’ll catch on somewhere y uh Loreno riio cap space cap space no it it it is and you’re going to see a lot of that because that’s what this has
Become uh that brings the Lions total dead cap number this year it’s it’s a little high at $23 million in dead cap that’s obviously queued by Tracy or 7.3 million so it’s not like it’s free see here’s here’s a difference too when people say the salary cap isn’t real and
There are people at this network that say it that are wrong when they say it uh it’s very much real the Denver Broncos are about to find out how very much real it is uh 7.3 million that is that is what counts against Tracy Walker what counts against your cap so you know
Just for it’s it’s not this but for Math’s sake say the cap was $200 million a little over 10% of your cap is dead cap money so it’s real it’s as real as it gets and again you’re going to hear that a lot from people around town the
Cap’s not real this is a lesson in how the cap is real well here’s the thing when you say the Cap’s not real you sort of have to caveat where there’s a salary cap and then there’s a cash cash option Clause right because if you don’t understand what the cash option and and
The Cole’s notes for that is that if a team wants to sign a guy and put all the money that they’re going to spend on him in asro and put it away then they can that that’s a rebate on your you can thin it up how you can thin it up right
So but how many teams are willing to do that and not in this business owners are looking to make money so I I think that there’s always a caveat when it comes to it yes um David Sparkman does Walker’s dead capap go away next year yes because
A contract’s over he’s he’s done and he’s off the books and just to give you an example of kind of the the main components of the lines deadcat money next year V is 3.8 million uh against your cap Romeo quara’s 3.5 million chony Gardner Johnson’s 2 million Charles
Harris is 2 million now before everybody flips out uh Emanuel Mosley is a million before everybody flips out when their deals are signed they’re they’re given two-year it’s in it’s in effect a one-year deal but it’s on the books as a two-year deal so like Gardner Johnson if
It’s a one-year $6 million deal they’re paying him4 million for the year he played and then you tack on 2 million the next year because you anticipate the cap going up mhm so you’re just kind of you’re you’re thinning out the first year and then you’re trimming the rest
Of the fat on the next year it’s it’s bookkeeping everybody does it and spot track’s a great reference if you want to go see where everybody’s sitting at with deadcat money and stuff like that so it’s it comes at a cost the Tracy Walker release comes at a cost that’s the cost
But as I said too when I got an argument dmac with flannel that was that was my cost of doing business like the CJ Gardner Johnson crowd the the anti- Gardner Johnson crowd what if I could give you I I could release Tracy Walker and give you Garner Johnson for what Tracy
Walker would have cost you on the roster anyway well that’s smart business isn’t it you would think you would think so but that’s an option now so instead of having Tracy Walker on the team and then you’d have to go pay a CJ Gardner Johnson now you release Tracy Walker you
Take that that little Gap you have in space and you give that to CJ Garner Johnson and then boom CJ Garner Johnson becomes Tracy Walker and rumor has it he wants like a million more than what his original contract was so that’s it’s not the worst thing in the world you just
Freed up 5.5 so and that that’s 85% of the money right there and again I’m not we’re stop with the c g Johnson doesn’t fit stop I’m giving you for instances right now people we’re just we’re just trying to get a base level of understanding and then you can
Understand that if this is the decision Brad Holmes make why he was able to make it and then all these pieces come into play yeah right Point Blank you can’t have a $13 million safety on your defense that’s not starting for you it’s just period in the story like let’s cut
The [ __ ] kg thank you for baselining that for everybody and he never got back from the injury and it’s sad and not to the level that he needed to for the money that he was being paid yep for a Super Bowl contending team yes and and in the meantime forget about Gardner
Johnson you look at what Brian BR look at what a guy came in and look at so Brian Branch even if he they were the same player look at the contract mm I mean it’s a no-brainer sometimes and this happens more times than not right in the NFL 100% it’s it’s always going
To happen like that’s the nature that’s the nature of the beast on it um so and somebody asked a question here uh DNC andt if the cap are real there’s no way the Saints can sign Derek Carr when you’re 70 million over the cap two days before free agency well sure there is
DNC ENT you ever hear the cap conversion you ever hear of Kamar red redoing his deal Michael Thomas giving you some cap Relief by extending it out basically what you’re doing you’re you’re adding void years on the end you’re doing what we do as American consumers you’re going
To charge it you’ll pay for it later y maybe you know so like that’s that’s kind of how you do it shout out after pay yeah yeah absolutely but you’ll but you’ll see this though dmac and you don’t hear about it a lot lot of deals
Are going to get redone teams that are over the cap are going to get cap compliant but it’s still real it’s absolutely still real I.E you just spent 7.3 million on Tracy Walker we’re in tax season right now yes it’s like having an account the account go through all the
Different what you’re eligible for what you’re not this the cap in the NFL sounds like that where there’s so many ways and it depends on sort of your account and which cap codes instead of tax codes that’s pretty much it right iny deduction yeah all the different
Things it’s why always weighs to fago yeah that’s why you have a riot wood and people you know of that nature Mike disner well that’s that’s that kg unbelievable point if you wonder why these gentlemen are here it’s for this time right now to let and I know back in
The day when when we went from uh you being in the NHL before the lock out uh when there was no salary cap then coming back salary cap you know we I think we were like 61 or 63 million before and you had to get down to 39
Million m but they hired uh a capologist that was the title of him it was strictly in charge of the salary cap and you know when they tapped you on the shoulder well I knew I was making too much money it’s the same thing to I’m making two and a half
Million right and you look at it’s exactly what happened to Tracy Tracy Walker you got to look so myself and Daren Hatcher and Ray Whitney you you you know like if I was making a million maybe not the same question but then you become you know Expendable and for for
Whatever reason so is that something dmac your agent hits you up and says hey uh this is the lay of the land or is it something you you knew you knew it the toughest part is having to sit out a whole freaking year and losing two and a
Half million sheesh that that’s the that’s the thing that stings yeah right so you know you signed the biggest you know contract of your life you only get one year out of it and then but then you get bought out at 2/3 or whatever like
That so you know the it’s still it’s it stinks but it all worked out in the end without leaving I couldn’t come back wi another one there you go uh Detroit Dabber the Osborne surprised nobody mentioned the remember the Osborne good TV J I thought they was on a different
Channel for some reason Somebody went into my room and drank my beard the dogs more dogs shoot on the floor that need to be cleaned up from those little rats uh people talking about catfish as well yeah that one was obviously fake yes I that that is true uh but yeah I mean
Just to me though like this move and it was done quickly and it was done matter of factly and dmac it’s just another example of this is a different organization remember it before where people would be like well he was a good guy in the room and you know he meant a
Lot to the organization which he did no doubt and this is tough this is tough to sit here and say in front of the camera because it it’s tough to it’s tough to mix in reality with with you’re talking about one of the good guys that the
Lions had right good guy in the community all that stuff but it’s true and here’s the difference right you mentioned it before new Waters of a winning team you have to make these tough decisions when you’re a winning team right as as far letting some of
Some of your guys go but again Neil when did we talk about this September right so when did you think Brad Holmes I think that you know you this this lets me know and more and more so is that trying to get on a what what is Brad
Holmes thinking not what do I think they need to do I’m trying to get in the mind of Brad Holmes and this this move was sort of a no-brainer right as far as what they were going to do now my question is because uh like Vai Tai and
Like how many other guys do you expect um this this to happen to right cuz you got to start shedding shedding some other contracts oh or or is this sort of the one right is this the one good guy that we’re going to have to say goodbye to or there going
To be a couple others yeah I mean it’s just for the uh for the cam Sutton hater crowd out there he’s still kind of upside down it does you no benefit to cut him and and look under no circumstance I think would they would they do that no but just cam with cam
Cam suton just needs a one cam suton a twoh and he’s paid as a two he performs as a two like I there there is no beef that that is one thing that I didn’t understand like the the the cam Sutton hate he’s asked to do a role that he
It’s like when the ners last year against Philly in the playoffs when Christian McCaffrey’s playing quarterback that’d be like get why couldn’t he throw that pass you know like that’s not what he does so I didn’t get that but no their their roster is about as airtight as it could be
Um John Kaminsky you you would have some room on John Minsky if you wanted to go that route you could save you know you could save a decent amount of cap space on him so we’ll see you know we’ll see how they move going forward I would
Imagine they like him though he seems to be you know one of their guys he seems to be one of their guys one of their trench guys yep 100% so there’s just not a lot of there’s just not a lot of guys that are left now that are in that situation
Um they their roster is pretty airtight I guess that’s the moral of the story so you know again as as you look at it I like what this represents dmac times have changed here and they’re running a business an NFL business absolutely and we’ll see see more see more of it as
Time goes on see more butts yeah maybe you will Spenny you know what you know what one we missed Aon flux yeah that was a good one did you like that one yeah that was good that that was like the one of the original animes
Wouldn’t it be you know what else I like Guardian Alarm well exactly if you have MTV and you don’t want anybody to come in and take it Guardian Alarm will be there to protect it let Guardian Alarm offer you professional technicians who take the time to recommend security and

Raxter top five Wednesday top five colors coming up in about 25 minutes or so and you know we’re just we’re chopping it up right now and Tracy Walker was the first to go and yes people in the chat were talking about it um as I pulled up John kaminsky’s uh
Situation right now I I wouldn’t be surprised if he was next or maybe a a a renegotiation if they if he’s their guy I don’t think he’s their guy at a $6.2 million cap hit no no I and that’s one of the one of the questions who do they renegotiate with because there’s
Something there right we always talk about their guys their players we can all probably you know admit um but I thought we’d get a little bit maybe more out of Kaminsky that he got the club off his hand but we’ll we’ll see yeah yeah so again they might not be done you
Might see John Kaminsky come up next but other than that there is not a lot of room to move everything is airtight right now so again you know this is the way that rebuilds were supposed to go everybody not come in here and give Trey flowers $100 million shees so like again
When you look at this right now with the Lions dmac the whole get a free agent that’s $100 million for three or four years crowd it’s not the way they’re going to operate the evidence is telling you this right here and you and you like the process you like the progress right
Well the evidence is telling you because they draft players they play they not only play they put numbers they become pro bowlers they put up numbers they do things that other uh players in their position haven’t done at a rookie uh deal like you look at loraa you know the
Development and stuff so the thing is they have talent and what do I always always think back to Neil You’ be so proud of me rookie contracts rookie contract and and that’s why if you keep bringing them up like everybody who’s upset that Amar Ros Brown going to get
25 million what are you talking about yeah right you got to you got to get in line who are you paying the big money to right that that’s the one thing and to me it seems like it’s going to go toar Ros Brown it’s going to go to um right
Jar it’s GNA go to aen Hutchinson it’s going to go to pen right you know like that’s you see the foundation now it’s what how how can they maneuver and work the uh the uh NFL uh code the Cap Code how do they work it to to bring in these other players right
Because they they’re going to have to bring in a veteran yeah that’s at some point whether it’s in the dline or whether it’s in the secondary you know Corner stuff like that but it’s just how that they do that and I’m hoping that Neil lets us know a little bit more
Inside the mind of Brad Holmes of which way he thinks he might lean yeah no and and I do and I do want to touch on that Nicholas Duncan brought up Charles Harris Charles Harris is done he’s in he’s in the void year of his contract
Like it’s over this is the last uh the last of his Lions Legacy is that deadcat money that 1.8 million or whatever but that was by design that was that was to keep your CAP Lower last year and Tack that on when you have a lot of cap space
Which the Lions do uh someone was asking earlier too about the Saints the Saints right now as they sit are 82 million over the cap M uh but see what the tool that they have to use they only have 2.8 million in dead cap money so you’re
Going to you’re going to watch that flip yeah a lot so that’s what the Saints are going to do so again this is the bookkeeping time of year I know cuz we’ve only been focused on draft throughout our recent history here we don’t we don’t understand the inner
Workings of how things work in the real world dmac no absolutely not like or or in the real world or behind the scenes like I said it’s so it’s so confusing of what you can do and you can’t do it’s not like the fact that you know you got
$100 in your uh in your betting account and once you bet the 100 you can’t get any more and then you know you’re telling me that the NFL it seems they got 100 in their account and they’re spending 10,000 and it’s like how do they do that but they figure out a way
The one thing is is do I think that my guys right I know that the football team and structurally that’s one one of what they put on the field but it’s also organizationally so when we look at this organization the due diligence that they’re doing and the success is because
They figured it out from the top down but they have people in place doing the jobs to put them in this position yes it’s important to Brad Holmes to draft these guys a it’s important for Dan Campbell and his coaching staff to develop these guys but there’s got to be
A flow in this system and I’m still waiting I don’t know Neil because we are building it from the draft that’s what they said but if need be right if that player comes along and and will we go out and pay that player I that’s not not
Already here I believe that we’re in that position to win that we will and that’s that’s the next ultimate test because we were never we’ve never been in that position right and and let alone here guys listen to this you might be a destination place did you hear that you might be a
Destination Place meaning people look here now when they’re free agents and want to be a part of this that’s new Behavior Neil isn’t it is I mean might have cracked a little bit and started last year you know I think Camp Sutton I think that was that was a big part
Obviously attitude wise you know that dog and CJ Gardner Johnson but I think you know that’s different and we realize that so it all it’s all coming together slowly but surely Woodward sports.com chat thread and make sure you jump in there get your thoughts out there and
I’m kind of looking at some stuff right now um hey if if if if somebody says that they can’t contend with Jared goof didn’t they just contend with Jared goof I mean isn’t the get those are your descendants man oh no my descendants know what I mean my descendants speak
Wisely yeah spinny has evolved yeah I know I know I I’m saying though like that’s your family that you don’t bring to the reunion anymore yeah when I get when I get proven wrong we’ll know we know what happens you know when I get proven wrong there’s some there’s some
Body ink on the line yeah we’ll see pour your money where your mouth I real quick I didn’t we didn’t even talk about this yeah at halftime of that NFC Championship game for sure what was going were you thinking about it at all or no no not a chance it’s I like I
Said I will it’ll be the happiest day of my life when they if and when they win the Super Bowl so I will have a full smile on my face getting those tattoos getting that 16 on your eye coming down like a tear oh when did it change that’s
A great pit I love that uh wward sports.com chat thread uh shift God says Rodrigo might be cut too I mean not a chance it’s it’s a mill it’s over a million in cap space yeah not I know I know he’s their guy yeah and he does so
Much he’s a six round pick he’s still got two years on his rookie deal yeah but you want you guys want a shocking one that I that I heard and this is from people that live in this space and it’s along the Rodrigo line like when you think about it they’re talking about
Jake Moody being cut in San Francisco really because his money’s paid there’s barely anything like Rodrigo would be like a $93,000 dead cap number just to kind of give you a comp they are talking there is talk about that in San Francisco but they they would like
Resign the guy they would just cut him and just let him go would they bring in bring in uh I think they would I think that they would bring in a veteran or maybe look to draft somebody again I I heard it talked about was he really that
Bad how many NFL record for consecutive extra points but he missed one would matter in the biggest spot he missed one Lions what’s up yeah please man I’m just saying I heard that bring him home man bring him home heard I heard connected people that know a lot about this [ __ ]
Were saying that dmac so they drafted him third round right yeah yeah so that makes the heavy lifting is done you the signing bonuses done that’s all paid damn that’s crazy Joel Trent resign extend Gardner Mosley moved him second QB Sutton moved to third uh CB draft a
Back or Edge cut kamish possible Reynolds uh Reynolds is a free agent you don’t have to cut him right um I’m just saying I believe that these will be Cuts well Reynolds isn’t cuz he’s a free agent so so there’s that as well Michael Daniel greatest show in America right
Now thanks guys that’s aggressive dmac don’t you think greatest show in America it’s really aggressive yeah 50 states I me take it’s really Ag and you know what like it’s amazing to me how stupid Brandon Catz is happen like it it does there’s one thing to troll and there’s
One thing just to be like trying to get it like right but absolutely to say delusional because you’re a go your quarterback that you don’t want to come here and win with what this team like do we watch the same stuff do you listen to the National pance about right what they
Built like it it’s and it’s just it’s just disgusting and I try not to get rid of them every day right but it’s just like why why and I see the pain of everybody outse I don’t really care right cuz what he does it’s entertaining to me it’s like you know dealing with
Flannel um it’s entertaining I don’t even know if it’s that I don’t even but I mean like serious on like and I that’s what I Neil I don’t get some people cuz it’s just like you can’t be Ser like you can I get it in opinion and I’ll give you
Every I mean I don’t know who’s got a better swing and Miss ratio cats or elago because that’s pretty I can put seven and a half minute video Brandon cat’s bad takes yeah I’ll take El Mago for 200 Alex wor a Runway there would be a runoff if that
If that were an election there would be a runoff in that oh my god um no it’s it is it’s laughable because oh my God like like come on man I’m delusional because getting to a conference Championship doesn’t make the team a contender right okay so yeah but it makes this team a
Contender because of how they’re built you [ __ ] stupid idiot right like I mean look at quit looking with the the broader brush and you know I tried yeah and I tried and I hope you have a [ __ ] great day Brandon all right this is what he lives for to shout outs so
Well I I know he does and I I play into it but it’s just like we’re all in this together um just just like we’re all into it and the rest of you enjoy the rest of the show yeah just like and there we go but I just I’m sorry to like
Bring it up I just like there’s stupid and then there’s just like ridic like like with flannel right flannel is not stupid flannel believes what flannel believes and I respect him for that I don’t agree with him and I think like it blows my mind because I don’t think that
Way but I respect flannel to the point you know of that he’s being genuine right right and anybody else and the you know like and that’s that’s what it is so sorry you hijacking I know but you know what though dmac and this isn’t even a cat’s thing
I get the sense that those kinds of takes are lurking beneath the surface and like do we do we got to do a golf thing again do we do we do we need to do we need to revisit it like do I need to point out the facts we shouldn’t at this
Point we shouldn’t right I’ll go I’ll go to SPO on it do we need to do it because there’s just enough people that pipe up about the golf thing pipe it up pipe it up yeah pipe it up pipe it upip um do we
Need to do a quick gol thing or no no I don’t think so okay I think everybody knows at this point I hope so it’s redundant I I hope so hey I hope everybody knows that big boy has all the Comfort Foods right now I hope we know

Golfers out there you guys are both animals W sports.com shop everybody get the best in Detroit sports wearables there’s no way when we could if we wi if the win kicked up it’d be tough but so you would play it’s going to 50 it’s going to 58 the sou
Isn’t it yeah today yeah it is this perfect golf 58 i’ play play 58 yeah unless it’s real over 50 it’s Comfort no wind yeah unless it’s real windy all right uh Cory Barry in the Woodward sports.com chat thread the facts are Brad Holmes has a lot of options regarding golf this off
Season all right guys I guess we do need to revisit it then here we go I didn’t want to do it can we can we establish some baselines about the Jared go thing just just to refresh everybody’s memory here and this is going to blow some people’s mind everybody remember this
When gof signed his deal with the Rams he set an NFL record for most guaranteed money ever mhm remember that everybody he set a record golf the one that some of you secretly hate that you don’t want to come out now because you know you can’t do that because you’ll wear it he
Set an NFL record for most guaranteed money ever so somebody thought he was pretty you know thought he was pretty good um as far as a lot of options what what options are those Corey what the the tag thing no you can’t do that man
He’s done too much for us you you can’t you can’t dick around your starting quarterback and why can’t you dick around your starting quarterback oh I’ll I’ll defer to my good uh friend here Mr Darren mccardy Darren you have the mo the the best way of describing the Jared
Go situation with this organization with this team and with this locker room you’ve been in locker rooms dmac yeah you know what it is you realize I think and it’s not the lovability because I think that they love this guy regardless but it’s more the respectability of
Getting the job done or whether he can and even when he did get it done he still doesn’t get respect hence cuz he’s not in the [ __ ] Hall of Fame you stupid NHL idiots Chris osgar right that’s what jar G it’s it’s always that Chris o good effect even when he we
Did right it’s a great call and not not as a fan base where fan base has always sort of loved aie since he you know cried and against San Jose but the resilience and and the fact that this guy’s got 400 wins back stopped two cups
10 years apart as you know came in and different things like that what does ay do just gets the job done right and and it’s that competitiveness I think I see a lot of the insides of Jared Goff the same as the insides of Chris oard they’re driving stuff and you don’t
Really see that outward because you know you see it you see Chris osgard more and the best part doing that the Wings games is because you see his personality and stuff but there’s a fire that burns in him I consider Jared gof the same way
But again Neil if you want to go in the locker room right it’s the same thing as with like there’s we had a no matter who it was always the utmost um confidence in him we have more confidence in him than we did in dom dom at times which is
Which is should be crazy to to other people yeah just because you knew that aie was going to fight I always said people call me crazy but you give me one life or death one game I’m putting Azie in that he’s controlling my fate right and that goes to maybe that’s you can
Say because that’s a personal you know brother love and stuff like no because I know what this guy’s made of I I Foxhole this guy and you know whatever that golf has a lot of that Inner Fire and Desire but also too to Galvanize that locker
Room you see the video after the win you see the love that they have throughout this you can’t buy that you think Talent can replace that no it’s a Vibe it’s the difference because if you don’t think everybody in that organization would lay down for Jared Goff right what else do
You want that’s the proving Force he’s proven and he would continue and yes he doesn’t have he’s not the shiny vehicle like like the herberts and the Josh Allen and doesn’t have the silverware yet and the Patrick Mahomes game stuff like this and there are there guys better yes Lamar Jackson’s better right
Stuff like this but for us for our team what he means to this locker room what he means to where we’re going this is your guy bro and you got to show him the respect to your point of why you don’t franchise this guy cuz he ain’t a guy
Just coming through higher gun this is your dude you’re going to win and lose with I haven’t even got to that point you the fact that you didn’t went got him you were there with them and said I’m Brad Holmes I’m coming over here and
I need you to come with me that’s where he he didn’t sell his flag on his coach he sold his flag on his quarterback mhm day one first movie made if you don’t see that whether we like it or not you like it or not that’s Brad Holmes’s guy he’s goingon to go
Down win or die with and he’s Dan Campbell’s guy CU he’s earned that and he’s the rest of those guys in the locker room go just go pick up post game locker room pick up you know any interview when guys talk about Jared go you know that that that’s my comp is is
Sort of Chris o good ever getting the respect your go will never get the respect and here’s another angle to it too dmac you you can speak to this well you know who you know who will be watching and see how this plays out I’ll give you
One name of a dude in that locker room that will be watching and see how this plays out pan I’ll give you another name Aiden Hutchinson they will be watching and they will see how this plays out and guys again I’m telling you this this is this organization’s guy whether you like
It or not this is what’s going to happen this is Jared goff’s team this is Jared goff’s organization and they will ride him dude your Mom married that step your stepdad and you know what she you better figure out a way to get along right
Right cuz she a she’s locked and so into it and then and then boom you got you got now you got a half sister coming there ain’t no leaving so you better figure out that this is this is a dude you’re going to ride or die with
Right even if there’s a fire he get to my face I’ll drop that [ __ ] that was the greatest jroof analogy in Detroit yeah that has been done in this town since he got here since he got here can we cut that then yes I might even play that on the big on
The big Instagram hear that boys make it happen yep how to coexist there you got coexist man cuz this is how it’s going to go down Lions fans coexist this is absolutely how it’s going to go down and uh let’s go Red Wings party okay Mr dovak hey I got a question just
Before great movie anybody think Jared Go’s gonna get worse or do you think he’s going to get better do you think this offense is going to operate more efficiently and better as more time that they spend together in some of these rookies I’ll even meet you
Halfway I’ll even play the part of uh as somebody said Cody Engel so many Dales from down river are going to be crying the day golf gets extended uh Danny G I’ll never get along with step dad golf well well all right Danny G then then I’ll answer I’ll answer the question
Again say ask your question one more time dmac do you think Go’s going to get better right do you think no do you yeah like does anybody think Goff isn’t G to get better or this offense isn’t going to get more efficient with more time and
As these guys do you remember that your one of your uh in the backfield guys and your you know Pro Bowl tight end we’re just rookies this year here’s here’s here’s my here’s my meet you in the middle on that do you not have enough data of him being an elite quarterback
How much what’s your Tipping Point been three years yeah is it is it two years well the first year was awful kg okay cool is two years enough for you is two years of being Elite enough will you change your mind in the third like how
Much do you need guys what’s your give me your requirements the truth is you don’t have requirements because it doesn’t fit your narrative and you don’t like it although you bought the hats though didn’t you you bought the t-shirts and the hats you want him under that Center you need him under that
Center because you can’t question what he does and then sleep under the very blanket of Division Championship hats and playoff win t-shirts that he provides here’s a great Point uh Chris ogal I don’t know if I’ve seen you welcome Goff is only one year older than Patrick Mahomes
Yeah right that’s that’s what I’m saying he’s still young we don’t you view GF as like an older dude yeah so long is his experience you know so like and that and that’s the thing still young I think he’s still getting better yeah okay and the whole object is hey let’s keep them
Upright you know what I’m saying let’s let’s keep they know what they have to do to be successful absolutely I think this is a good one to write off on Ransom says doesn’t matter what we think there are 52 other dudes on that team that want
Golf and that’s the moral of dmax story that’s it that’s the moral right the old guys to the left and right of you they’d lay it down all of them in that organization would lay it down the lunch lady would lay it down Swiss insurance

Know the color magenta it is a purplish red not bad color sits Midway on the Spectrum reel between red and blue leading to number four Spenny also huge purple fan used to be my favorite color growing up and stuff like this but I always have a soft spot I like plums but
I think purple’s like it’s it’s that you you like purp in the green Don’t You O always always that that my favorite uh butt of all time pre98 bubak Kush has that purpy turpy that usually and and the darker usually means IND Inda sleepy couch all that
Stuff so yes the magenta and the purple you know represent oh what did you say number three green of course green money surpris it’s not higher money weat no no because you have to know right it should be but it isn’t uh number two obviously red uh
Duh but uh black is the basis just like Kenny favorite people um favorite color it goes with everything I think that uh you don’t really catch me not wearing something black so uh black and red my colors but uh green love the green whether I’m spending it or smoking it
Whatever purple in the bud magenta I love it all the all the same family uh interesting in the wvsports.com chat thread uh people going over some of their favorite colors like DNC ENT can’t lie Indigo cran was my go-to in Kinder trying to tell in first grade it was pay
No Indigo man uh Steve Leman uh dog weener pink is Jesus pause big pause I know oh [ __ ] uh Nicholas Duncan it’s the number one NyQuil I would assume he’s talking about purple on that perhaps I don’t know uh Danny g red pocket pink H red rocket

The game and I know that’s not popular orange is red is by far the best Starburst but you know what you’re going to get when you like orange the most you’re going to get all the orange you’re going to get excessive value like the lemons everybody wants R I like the orange I
Like the Reds I don’t like the lemons yeah yeah orange is the best plus red and pink are the best plus spinny I know I could get three or four orange ones out of you for war one red one I know I could I know I could you see what I’m
Saying all value all value number five your value pick the best value in the game Malcolm Rodriguez uh orange pop tremendous you’ve never had a bad orange pop kissed whatever sun kissed is really good I like Fant soda in Europe so good orange orange gatorade’s my favorite Gatorade orang Gatorade is very
Underrated absolutely um Detroit debber pink is overrated sometimes it is I would agree uh number four gray my favorite suits are gray I love gray gray great suit and and you can it mixes with a lot like you can change a gray suit around wear a different jacket with it
Keep the gray pants vice versa the charcoal gray too there’s a lot it’s a great family of colors a lot of Versatility with gray certainly in the fashion it’s technically not a color that’s the only reason I ain’t put it on my list it’s technically a shade it’s
Not a color all right stop with your [ __ ] if you want to get technical I mean I’m just it’s got a cray in the cray box if Mama says it’s a color I’ll say it’s a color uh number three blue blue jeans yes blue blue is everywhere
Go Blue goes dude it just does I love it I like blue um I really do like blue jeans too uh number two white just a basic I like a good crispy white yeah tea sweatshirt um the offshoots of white are incredible just white is clean you know

Darren mccardy kg Spencer raxter um somebody had this one and I missed who had it but you know who you are and this this is in play for next what do you guys think about the top five disappointments I’m on board there’s a ton I know what number one is
For me does it have to do with sports I don’t think so it can be outside of sports yeah your some M will be sports but yeah top five disappoint right now my two of my top three are going to be Sports yeah I know I think I know what
Yours will be dmac one of anyway yeah one of them rhymes with Schmid schmate I’ll just say that gotcha gotcha um what about that might be a good one that takes some time to think about yeah what about uh not usually block those out what about brisket croit
Yeah yep one’s been kind of disappointing yeah oh okay we’re going to go deep whatever we can go into like poverty yeah absolutely the hunger in this country uh Detroit Dabber number one Brandon cats end of list so there’s there’s yeah there’s that out there all right what’s the other list Nick
Next uh dmac want to talk about this because we can and look the the Red Wings certainly and and I told you yesterday it happened for the first time for me and here’s why I want to go to a Red Wings thing this happened last year it
Was brief but it happened last night out of the blue it happened to me I was sitting on the couch you know doing work for for Oakland basketball and I was looking at scores to see what was on TV and dmac I looked and I saw the Islanders were playing the Penguins
And immediately in my head it went off I said dmac I got to watch this game it can’t go to overtime there can’t be an extra point in play for somebody to get and then ultimately it went to overtime and the worst possible result happened the Islanders won in overtime of course
So I was bitter about that but dmac it’s getting real man I watched a significant amount of Islanders Penguins I’m in dmac I’m in the playoff pushes now well it’s funny you said that because I I was watching the ticker and I saw that Ottawa and Florida were tied going into
Overtime and I flicked that on hoping that Ottawa would win to not give Florida so it’s real everything that you’re talking about it’s real and as I look at these uh you know the standings right now with uh you played 55 games you got uh 27 games left or whatever like this
Jersey lost last night which is huge you have the same amount of games played with them and what do I always preach about looking behind you so you got a four four-point Gap right that’s you’re just sort of looking like you’re swimming you’re swimming you come up for
Air okay there we are back down go back swimming they got a big test tomorrow against Colorado it doesn’t get any easier you know they’re chasing Tampa and uh Philly who are only a point ahead of them and then you know Toronto who’s for so you’re right in the middle of the
Hunt this is the excitement this is stuff and I think maybe to the fact of we’re talking about as lions fans sort of learning to turn the corner and how to cheer a successful team well this is what it’s about having a team in the hunt right going into the playoffs going
This is everything that we wanted isn’t it right decisions have to be made um you know what I’m saying guys have to different step up we see how this team’s being made it’s starting to get you know it is exciting cuz you’re in the heat of
It on this level and this level is establishing yourself as a playoff team so right now they hold Destiny in their own hands and the way that they’ve answered certain types of adversity you know I mentioned yesterday that I gave a B+ for that road trip why they get the
Plus uh they get the B because they got four to the eight points they get the plus because they did it the hard way and win in the last two games and I don’t care if it’s Calgary Seattle whatever it is it’s the NHL so um
They’re doing what they need to do but they like I said they came up for air to see where they are these last few days back down swimming again big game Thursday and Saturday at home uh the red wings 63 and one in their last 10 to give you some cross
Comparison the Devils who are four points back of the Red Wings are 45 and one those stupid Islanders in their little Lego Arena are 43 and three that sits in the parking lot of a horse track look it up I I do like that I get to
Bring that bit back hatred for the Islanders little Lego plastic Arena me lands no they’re in UBS Arena look it up on Google Maps it’s literally in the parking lot of a horse racing track in New York literally it’s crazy you can say what you want those are the facts no
But dmac it it triggers the conversation and we get to do this a couple of times oh let’s go reming party caps beat the Devils though so that was good uh yeah it was but the I mean we need the Cs to lose too yeah you know
What I’m saying I like I like that though the teams that are behind you keep them behind don’t worry about the ones ahead of you where you’re at keep me so I’d rather see that than than Jersey that that’s what I would like to see that’s how I’m going to look at the
Schedule and cheer for games on a daily now and before I get into what I want to see cuz I think that’s going to spill into a second segment I want us to get mentally prepared again right like we had to we had to blow the dust off some
Stuff as football fans and remember how hard it is to win playoff games I don’t think we recognize that MH uh it’s hard to win I want us to to mentally prepare ourselves for this this is going to be a grind because there’s Tampa Detroit the Devils the
Islanders and the capitals all within seven points all going for two spots so dmac you are going to we are going to overreact to losses we’re going to overreact to wins we’re going to overreact to other teams losses this is how it works this is going to be
Uncomfortable for a very long time all the way till April dmac probably yeah but this is where we want we haven’t been in the playoffs since 2016 I mean please and and we’re ready for it we were prepared the lions got us prepared for playoffs and and what what
To have so everybody get on the wagon now and cheer these guys but you say it’s not going to be easy Neil right definitely not going to be easy somebody in the chat thread said what’s the worst case scenario for the deadline and I think as a fan the hardest part is if
Nothing’s done right there’s that like like as far as like for me as a fan now not for me personally because when I say hashtag Weiser play 1919 I’m 100% committed but it’s for the people that aren’t 100% committed to let Stevie knows way because the bottom line it’s
Not about it’s not even in Steve eisman’s mind about making the playoffs this year it’s about both solidifying this team and the foundational pieces to be a playoff team once they make it like if they make it this year then you they’re going after 25 straight years that’s the
Mentality so I think that they’re pushing his hand to do something and I think he’s happy about it but it’s almost like the old you got to show me first and I think that’s what they’ve done and especially off this road trip and dmac I’m going to peel a layer back
Cuz we’re going to talk about trade deadline coming up in the NHL and targets we’ll talk about targets but I just I want it out there organizationally because I think what Brad Holmes and Steve Eiserman have shown us there’s a depth component that we don’t think about we think about the
Length and the width that’s it there’s a depth component that goes into it as well and I think it’s important because the names I’m going to bring up to you it’s it plays into what he’s going to do cuz there are some questions to answer in the off seon we’re going to
Discuss it so the hockey people stand on business cuz we’re going in and I I do I want to have this discussion because I could see every scenario I could see he makes a move I could see him not doing anything cuz I mean really when you
Think about it you have the most players with 10 plus goals in the National Hockey League and Patrick Kane’s got nine so and again and again the consistency of Steve Eiserman is nobody knows what he’s going to do 100% And that’s the best part is it Market d well
We will’ll and I had and I want to bring this up too um I had a very interesting conversation with Danny deiser you know about the evolution sort of of the of the team and where they stand sort of right now from a guy who’s been in that
Locker room recently I know and he’s up 20 bucks on me on the golf course and I can’t stand it deiser dink this summer dink payback the revenge tour is going to be sweet yes I know you won your car with a hole-in-one and all that kind of stuff I get get it
But deiser you get your partner I’ll get my partner oo that’s it and and you know what maybe some of the ground groundw was laid last night 20 bucks a guy but that let’s do it and when we win I’m getting de Kaiser’s 20 bucks yes you’re
Gonna get him to sign it he’s GNA and you no I’m going to spend it I was going to say on the back it say Neo rule back all right tell them about Premier Pet Supply Premier Pet Supply give your pet the best Premier pet supplies Michigan’s best pet store hands

Like cop cuz it’s technically a village cuz the population isn’t big enough uh I heard a comedian like a local comedian one time say could you imagine being a cop in Center Line just driving around that same block every day yeah hell yeah I love the cops in C line they never
Pull me over yeah now Warren cops on the other hand I just got a speeding ticket L Warren is horrible yesterday two days ago damn you run to follow the law a lot I was I was going to the gym I was doing 10 over you gave me impeding traffic
Though so I didn’t get any points ah buy your way out yeah there you go that’s what it is um but all right dmac let’s get into this and I want your thoughts on this dmac um remember like we talk trade deadline I know what every get it was
Funny because we put that reel out uh when we were talking about Patrick I was talking about Patrick Kane in the Red Wings yesterday we made a reel of it and it got a lot of engage I was stunned for a hockey for a hockey reel it got a lot of Engagement
And Redwing fans are in back to playoff form we need a big physical defenseman just all and an enforcer which I always defer to you you were the ultimate enforcer and when people say get an enforcer dmac no you got somebody so you know you got guys
That’ll stick up for the for their team that’s sort of what what the league is right now what I want people to realize is that you’re technically like you are built or being built closer as we went to the break we were talking about Patrick Kane’s got
Nine goals when he gets to his 10th it’ll be the seventh guy with 10 10 uh goals which is you know the most in the league most 10 goal guys in the league with 27 games left you got how many guys are going to hit 20 goals what I’m
Trying to say is your playoff set up when I talked to Danny De last night we were doing an event uh down at LCA and the question I asked him was you know Austin Matthews has 49 goals he’s on Pace for 75 but in the playoff series is
It easier to focus and shut down one top Elite uh scorer or is it tough to shut down the whole team and it’s the balance so the fact that you just need to get into the dance the fact that you’re sort of built to be able to score goals
Throughout the lineup That guys know how to put the puck in the net um we saw it the other night you know two-on-one by fiser and and spraw in a game that needed the goal they were able to execute that’s the big difference so the fact is just sort of getting there yes
There’s no question that you need we need to upgrade probably two two defensemen whether they’re in the system or not or and that those are tough to come by right so we’ll see that what I also like and I’ll I’ll keep harking on it is the fact that um you know Alex
Lion is is definitely getting the job done and you look at what he did last year when he got the opportunity with Florida so I mean playoffs are a different Beast it’s about that’s why it’s sort of when you get there you’re sort of set up for more the success you
Use the Carolina analogy you know it’s Sebastian AO is their best player but that’s CU I’m a hockey guy but you wouldn’t really know that but balance throughout their lineup it’s what we saw out of Seattle last year stuff like this you you’re sort that that’s why building
This team so you’re not going to sacrifice a lot of this because those are just like the underlying balance of what you’ve developed and how you’ve matured this season so it’ll be interesting now Stevie knows this and he feels this that there this one person
Away or this one move away I think he’ll make it but if not looking at the bigger instead of looking at a linear but looking at for the future he’s not going to sacrifice anything now the beauty like you said is they draft guys you look at all the guys that are developing
We mentioned Jonathan Beren a guy that that would is an NHL caliber player somewhere else right so these are all the questions that that Stevie as we get to the trade deadline and and the best part nobody knows what he’s going to do but the fact is
Like 313 God I got to talk to Isam every GM in the league who picks up up their phone they this is what they do before they hit the send button to dial right or incoming call oh man it’s Ste like he’s got that ability and that aura throughout the league he’s never
Going to get he’s never going to get Al of on a deal right which you take that for what it is but it it’s at the worst case scenario he’s going to get what he needs and I think let’s go reving Sparty brings up and that’s a great Baseline so
We’re going into this discussion with that and this from let’s go Red Wing spy either way we know Stevie won’t overpay so I’m good with whatever he does okay good I’m I’m glad that there’s I’m glad there’s a lot of that sentiment around out there so here’s here’s the deal guys
As they go into the trade deadline remember this because this plays and this will be a factor there there’s no like Tyler berzi you know kind of contract deos that you got to deal with this year but guys that are in walk years for the Red Wings right now David pan
Daniela gohere and even Patrick Kane those are all impending free agents everybody so you know what I’m saying I think you could even see a scenario where and I don’t think this will happen but I think it’s plausible let me let me say it like that he could do deals with
Somebody where he adds a piece in one deal and maybe takes away a piece in another deal like that’s dmac that’s on the table to me absolutely no no everything’s on the table it’s Steve Eisman right and it’s just the fact that nobody’s got his secret you know black
Book or whatever of what his game plan is he holds that closer to the vest than anybody else so you know we could speculate but there you know when you mention that like thinking of it right I would think that you’re probably strong as earned you know a new contract
Patrick Kan definitely where does that fall in how does how does that I think those are the two guys out of there but then you said Pon and who else did you say uh Goos feere and go right again may you know you you don’t know if
Those are those are pieces uh you know with what’s coming up you know I look at David pan and I also you mentioned younger guys there’s a Carter merer you know coming up uh to play sort of you know similar role right shot and to let
Everybody know you can speak on this the pan angle is like golf Vibes pan in that locker room universally respected un the maturity the the the maturity and what we’re seeing and the evolution started with pan and shirat and culture that and added to Brink it and your can and all
These different guys like that so there is an element to it where you might wonder why you know David pon who’s got the experience but a little older well um Team Friendly Deals is is you know something that I would be looking from him he’s already got his cup I think he
You know he’s a big part of what’s being built here so you know these are all like there’s all questions to that that you have to go through Neil also of with what you’re going to do with the guys you have and again like the defenseman crowd remember too that Justin Hall
Signed a three-year deal right three-year extension with the Red Wings right so remember he’s there to the point where Benny’s guy Simon Edinson can’t get on the ice right now yeah well either can Hall and he can’t either you know and he’s he’s a seven figure Year
Dude so like this this we need a physical defenseman maybe isn’t what everybody thinks and to remember this and again I just want to prep everybody because I don’t want to hear this when the trade deadline comes and goes if they don’t make a lot of moves and I’m not saying
Like Okay their finished product go win the Stanley Cup I’m not saying that but the goal tending thing cuz everybody said it in in comments of everything we posted big physical defenseman we need a top five goalie you’re not getting a top five goalie cuz teams that have top five
Goalies are contending for a Stanley Cup right and they’re not giving them up and they don’t go to free agency so the flip side of that coin is this guys and and think about this for a minute where this Red Wings team what what am I told that they have a
Wealth of right now Spen you keep telling me he’s coming yeah the goalies you I keep hearing that yeah right am I wrong or no you’re right kosa and Augustine are going to be great and we haven’t done a kosa update lately so I I
Don’t know where we sit with it he look great recently so you know what I’m saying like again I I get the sense dmac if there’s not a lot of activity we’re going to get the Brad Holmes thing around the NFL trade deadline where everyone’s going to lose their
Mind but in reality everything’s fine no you know what we’re going to we’re going to break down if we don’t make the moves is look at what different teams sacrific right you got to expect Toronto is going to mortgage whatever farmer all the way right right than then different teams so
So I think it’s important to see how how there’s three or four teams out there that are going to mortgage sort of their future cuz they’re in that window we’re not even in that our window yet we could be entering our window right making the playoffs but again that’s the best part
I didn’t have to worry Stevie’s in charge man sit back and worry about something else I mean big matches on a tonight that’s very way more important all right shout out uh brandan Diller Neil never talks Wimbledon and it’s ridiculous you know why I don’t here’s what here’s why I don’t Brendan because
I think it’s rid they’re all white little uh dress code they have and stuff like that that’s ridiculous and on never talk about Wimbledon on this show until they move that and just let the people wear what they want to wear colors let them wear colors like come on everybody
This isn’t colonial times you can only wear white to Wimbleton yeah I don’t they may have changed that I don’t know I that that kind of got a little too far down the road and I couldn’t go back hey stand on it stand on business right you
Want me to talk Wimbledon then get rid of your stupid dress codes how about that yeah how about Jack lavador too cuz that’s 247365 you guys know what it is it’s a card game that’s sweeping the nation learn how to play right now on your phone at Jack labor. or scan that QR

Doesn’t have anything to do with it by the way good good deal yesterday on on elago Benny good engagement just showing the clip just waving and missing a little bit out in front W and missing just a little bit uh I wanted to talk about this and this I didn’t know if I
Was going to do this or not because again um here’s a deal when we talk about the Tigers dmac what’s my main complaint about the Tigers spending that they’re a check or two away from winning a division right SP and will they spend or not yeah and here’s where I have to give
The twins credit and this is going to sound bad and I’m friends with a lot of media in this town and they might get upset with this but that’s how you know it’s going to be good the twins came out and basically said why they’re not spending and it’s the same reason I
Think why the Tigers aren’t spending you guys are familiar with Bal and Diamond Sports right yes so I don’t know if you guys caught with what happened with the San Diego Padre yeah yeah dmac I’m going to pull the curtain back a little bit I’m going to pull the curtain back what
You’re going to explain why New York can do what they can do well it it isn’t even necessarily that you guys you guys know that the Padre traded Juan stto during the off season to the Yankees see what happened to the Padre’s was they signed their TV deal with Diamond Sports AKA B
The same way all these other teams in the league do and of course Diamond Sports said hey we paid too much for this we’re out of money we don’t have any money to pay you to the point where they just stopped broadcasting Padre’s game Midstream last season now the
Fallout to that what what what they just stopped showing in the game yeah yeah MLB came in and took control of the broadcast and all that stuff good old B and uh that’s what happened um so here’s the deal with it dmac teams are a business right we know
That that’s that’s part of the problem you line up your expenses with your income and and see what area you want to work in overnight the Padre’s total operation changed because they were counting on their 200 million a year 100 million a year from TV income that they
Had with their deal overnight that was gone and then two nights later Juan stto was gone and you saw accordingly now the Padre’s are a bit excessive with his $350 million contract that’s a bit of an excessive story but the Minnesota Twins and their ownership came out and said
Look we got this TV contract pulled from us this is how we’re going to go this is how we’re going to operate now but they came out and they said it so I give the twins a lot of respect because they told you that if the Tigers
Would just do the same thing instead of trying to disguise it as something else I would say all right cool 100% all right hey man I get it you don’t want to swim in those Waters as an owner there are a lot of owners that don’t there are
A couple that will but my problem with it is dmac is that b situation while you suffer from the same thing as an organization gives you an opportunity to make it a Minnesota a weakness that you don’t pay attention to it’s your weakness but you decide as an
Organization the time is to strike now because Minnesota’s compromised and they’ve come out and said this is going to be their plan of attack that’s my frustration and that’s fair I don’t care what anybody says that’s fair right and it’s more more or less are you in or in
The way and what are you willing to do to win you’re willing to do everything to win except spend money that’s what that’s what you’re telling me because you’re CU as you talk to me here Neil you looking to see what the one team in your division would we say that that if
You’re going to win the division it’s probably going to have to be through Minnesota they’re your most competitive team are you worried about you got to lay money on them to win the division so so so there you go so what aren’t they doing that you could be doing and this
Is one of the things and I think that when it comes down to it right that that you can tell are you in or you in the way and this tells me that and that this ownership is in the way of doing what needs to be done right in the p in the
Past if this was the Detroit Tigers and I’m just going by my opinion under Mr illich when he and he would see this and you explain that to him he would say he he would look at it well okay who could we get and who can we take away from
From this if this is a situation when the alago deal comes up and the Korea deal comes up you would have got you could have got Korea like so so who’s that guy out there that can make you better uh Woodward sports.com chat thre at Steven David I live in San Diego it
Sucks and and I feel can you IM cuz like the pad close like it was like weren’t right with they were signing guys for fun man like they were them to like I expected them and then the Dodgers the same thing but it’s like give them a run for their money
Right and that’s over that is all Blake Snell is a free AG he ain’t coming back Soto’s gone all of it Pia who’s our resident you know California Insider uh that’s why the Padre’s budget went from 250 to 200 million overnight they you had to take a 50 million dollar Bridge
Loan this past fall and don’t forget the Padre set massive attendance records and like the fans did their part yeah like they came out to the games and and that’s my problem with it and then somebody in the back at the end says uh Steve Wilds top five things you’d rather
Do than watch the Tigers Steve I’m always going to watch him I’m like baseball is the thing in the summer man I’m always going to watch them Steve and that’s why it hurts and here’s here’s the deal too and here’s why it’s fair they didn’t even replace the Cabrera
Money they didn’t even replace the Cabrera money in an element in a in a landscape right now where every dollar you spend would really count as two that you spend because your your biggest opponents in your division aren’t doing it like you see you see where I’m
Getting with that you nailed it right there is that you spent the Mone before you have all this that is off the books and now you’re just going to sit here and use that to me it the way that they’re acting right now tells me that they just been waiting for miggy’s money
To go off the books so that they don’t have to pay anybody anything instead of replacing it if they replace the money look how you’re you’re exactly right with the other teams in your division not doing anything you could do something and it doesn’t change from
What your cap was last or what your salary was last year yeah that that’s that’s my problem that’s my problem with everything either a come out and say it or B just replace the money that was already on the books man yeah like that
That’s it even if he says it U my thing is okay the TV deal that’s your excuse now fine what was the excuse before it seems to be like a personality type trait yeah I mean to be fair I I can understand what they were doing before
Like it was a it was a tear down right and and what set him back was the guy that did the tear down brought you back magic beans yeah like got rid of all that tradable talent and the one time you did spend is Elo so yeah so there you go exactly or
Jordan Zimmerman at all you know and that that’s my problem with it like just be upfront about it and maybe that gets me in trouble I don’t know but that’s how I feel I’m paid to come on here and tell you how I feel that’s how I feel
That’s fair and I’m sure a lot of people and it’s not un it’s it’s not unfair that is not an unfair take by me no that is 100% Fair Steve says you’re the biggest tiger fans on this network and I probably am and I’m probably the most
Vocal against some of the stuff they do but DME what did I say when they brought in Scott Harris I said I like it I see what you’re trying to do because you’re trying to because it’s easier to write a check to a GM than it is to write a
Bunch of checks in free agency though right and then but as this plays out it’s bore of Scott Harris’s brought in to untangle this huge sort of not and he’s not right exactly Scott Harris to me and I’ll come full C to me Scott Harris is separate from this I like what
Scott Harris is done yes and but but it also too as you realize I think he’s hamstrung in what he really can do so he’s got to worry about you know developing younger drafting younger doing all the things that he did and getting the you know with with the
Where’d he come from San Francisco yeah yeah with with their and development you know we we but don’t we have a minor league guy from the Tampa Bay Rays or something for so like things are being put in place it’s a long game I just don’t right exactly which I like because
He went they went they went the Lions route with Brad Holmes right like go go get the developmental guy the guy that has the eye for talent and bring him in here long run I like it but now right now is the opportunity yeah you could be
A third B changed because of this deal and you realize that you can help yourself by one or two guys because the other teams aren’t you they’re not in the market right they’re not even to the table so again that probably gives you maybe it’ll save you some overall cost
Because you’re not negotiating against another team in your division yeah so so that’s it tell them about lady James yeah come to Lady James haircuts for men for award-winning haircut experience as always and register to win a trip of your dreams all expenses paid sweet to the 2024 NCA basketball T that’s right

Benny Riley Green’s got to play 140 plus games man yes he does big got to yes he does got to need it need it for sure and I think he will hopefully he can stay healthy man we we need that for sure it’s definitely going to be better with
Him not having to play center cuz you know you got Parker met Meadows out there who can play center for you so that’ll take some of the toll off of him he can DH some games you can play the corner Outfield spots um but yeah you need him to stay stay healthy for
Majority of the year right uh broer Tigers aren’t going to do anything maybe pick up a reliever midseason if they’re in real contention and broer I again you’re two checks away maybe from winning a division yeah the Justin Turner thing really hurt me it really
Hurt me it would have been nice to have him veteran yeah a one-year deal yep one-year deal for 13 million for the Blue Jays right still got some pop in his back that 17 that would have been nice you still got money under the migy
Miggy money so that’s what it is um art nobody wants to hear the truth I I don’t know about that uh Mike G real quick before we ride off got a question for you dmac do you think sergey’s white skates made him faster yeah dude I mean
If I ever had got to I was never allowed near him but if I I know for a fact that if I got to wear white skates I would have been blazing it wouldn’t even been Fair no Sergey was just fast all right everybody that about does
It for today thanks for tapping in as you guys always do contributing dmac kg SPO Rax on Rax on Rax my name is Neil Ro thanks for tapping in Big D energy well see you Later

Mr Ed) trade Hooker before its to late !!!
The questions are whether Goff is indispensable, or not, and depending the answer, how should his contract look moving forward to sustain long term team success and Super Bowl viability. In my mind, he’s fifth to be paid, behind Penei, Saint, Alim and possibly, Iffy. Bottom line, the only way to find out how indispensable he is, is the same way we found out with CD2, Alim, Ragnow, Houston and Jonah: Goff gets hurt, and someone either replaces his level of play and leadership, or not. The blind devotion Neil and Darren have for him is not a luxury Holmes can have.
Black,grey,white are shades and highlights. Yep I'm that guy 😂
