It is. Damn. Damn.
It is the JR Sportbree show on the Infinity Sports Network. Man, I stepped away for two seconds. Hey, how about this? The Cavaliers are beating Miami in an elimination game 82 to 38. It's like three minutes have gone by here in the third quarter.
What a beat now. Just quit. Go home.
Like, pull some fans out the stands to get a shot. 82 to 38. Oh, I'm talking about quitting. Great example. Anyway, we'll be here with you for one more hour. We don't quit. This show gets started every weekday 6pm Eastern, three Pacific. I'm in Atlanta, Georgia, our super producer and host Ryan Hickey.
He is in New York City. And we've had a we've had a fun show a full show. Thank you to Mary Kay Cabot, beat reporter for the Cleveland Browns. She came through and had a chat with us about the Browns and all of their quarterbacks. I got an update on the Chidor one too. Can't believe it.
There's an update that came out like an hour ago involving Chidor. I'll tell you about it in a second. Hey, thank you to Chad Reiter, draft analyst for NFL.com. We had a great chat with him. Back to the basketball side of things.
It looks like Jimmy Butler is going to play tonight in game four, as the Golden State Warriors try to take a three to one series lead against these young Houston Rockets. Of course, at the end of the show, we'll talk about a few things that took place this day in sports history. You know, Chidor wasn't the only big football name in the news over the weekend. Typically, Sunday morning news on CBS and pretty light stories.
But Bill Belichick figured out a way to make news. Him and his girlfriend with the one that she posts him on the Internet and then they don't want to talk about it. It's the most. If you're 24, you're not a millennial, are you? I don't even know what the hell that is. What is that? I think you're Gen Z. Gen Z?
Oh, well, that makes it just so much worse. I can't keep up. I don't know. When does a millennial stop? What age is that? Twenty seven, maybe. Twenty seven years old. Yeah. OK. I don't know.
I don't know the difference between Gen Z and X and Y. I don't know. Dang, she is young. I mean, that's I think every week we we discover a new way to just talk about how young she is because she's 24. Come on now. Wow. Shannon Sharp is what, 55.
He was allegedly with a 20 year old. Mm hmm. Come on, man. You got to find people that are in your. Age bracket, is that appropriate to say?
I don't know. Even just I mean. Orbit.
Orbit 40 and expand, I mean, 35, 35 to 35 up. Is that OK for Shannon? Right.
Yeah, I think 35 is acceptable for both. Honestly, I mean, Bill Belichick's like how old are you? 24.
OK, OK. I've read that she's an old soul. So that's why her and Bill Belichick get along. So what is she like? Is her soul like 70, then you think?
So they like, you know, one in the same that in that area? Yeah, maybe. Maybe she's thinking about Social Security. You know, maybe she's getting AARP notices and I don't know.
This is the good old days, like the 50s, a black and white TV and cell phones. Maybe, maybe she does. Damn, she was born hickey. How about this, Bill Belichick? He was he won his what? He won his first.
It was his first Super Bowl when she was born. How about that? Right.
Is that on this earth for 9-11? I don't think so. Right. Well, she was born in 2001. Right. So maybe she was just born.
She was just born and he just won a championship. Oh, that's so bad to think about. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, it just it just it just I don't want to say it kills me. It's it's hilarious to me that you have so many. This I guess that I'm going to say it the stupidity of people.
Stupidity doesn't amaze me. The contradictions like Tiger Woods, like how detached and self-centered are some of these people? And so we get Tiger Woods, one of the most famous people on planet Earth. The man is rumored to be dating this woman, the ex Trump son, wife, ex whatever the hell she is. And so he's been rumored to date her. And so what does he do? This man announces that we are officially dating. And then he's he asks for privacy.
Like, tell me how detached you are from reality without telling me how detached from reality you are. So we get that from Tiger Woods. OK, not not in no stretch way, shape or form has this man lived the conventional life. OK, fine. So be it. And now we get to Bill Belichick, who is dating a woman who is 50 years younger than him. Like he is old enough to be her grandpa.
All right. And Bill Belichick, who has just carved out this. And this goes way beyond the New England Patriots. People in Cleveland know how much of a jerk he was. We can go back to his time in New York. This guy has been a jerk in the football sense for like 40 years. Gruff, aggressive, mean, nasty personality, football, football, football. Now he's hanging out with his 20. This is the definition of being whipped.
OK, OK. It took a 24 year old to come on and change this guy's life. He's having and doing things that he's never done before in his life. He'd like to take pictures on the beach. Like dress up in costume.
Yeah. Hang out with a mermaid on this Instagram instaface thing that he he detests so much. And so this is the crazy part. Bill Belichick is on CBS Sunday morning and they're doing an interview about him and his book. And he's like, hey, why didn't you mention Robert Kraft? And he's like, he's not in the book. Well, isn't this a book about, you know, your football life and experience? And he's not in the book.
What? He's like, yeah, he's not in the book, but you mentioned your girlfriend and the acknowledgments. And he's just like, yeah, I did.
And then we got classic Bill Belichick there. And then they're asking him about his 24 year old girlfriend. Oh, well, you're taking pictures on the beach with her and you're doing all of this, but you don't want to talk like you can't have it both ways.
You can you can ignore it, but that just comes across to me as stupid. Like if you all go all in, talk about it. And if you're not, then don't put these photos online.
Oh, well, your 24 year old girlfriend, she has to, you know, feel and be acknowledged. She has to be in charge of Bill Belichick's life. This is just just crazy. Listen to Bill Belichick. He was asked about Robert Kraft basically not existing anymore, especially as it relates to his book on football. Listen to this interaction. I have to ask about Robert Kraft, because 24 years together, six Super Bowls, unless I'm wrong, he's not in this book. How come? Well, again, it's about my life lessons in football.
And it's really more about the ones that I experienced directly. He's not even in the acknowledgment section. Correct. Do you feel like you were treated with dignity and respect when you were let go by Robert Kraft? Yeah, well, it was a mutual decision for that for us to part ways.
He said fired. It was a mutual decision. Oh, you know, that was classic Belichick. That was calling.
He threw it back to his time in New England just there. It's also a hell of a follow up. Now, he didn't say mutual. He said you were fired. And I love the silence. It was mutual. It was mutual. What do you want me to say? Hey, what is he going to say? Hey, he's a liar. It was mutual.
OK, yeah, yeah, whatever. Bill Belichick got fired. If he if he wanted him to still coach the Patriots, Bill Belichick would still be there. I don't know, running a foreign 13 team, I guess.
I have no idea. And then it got into the girlfriend of which CBS Morning CBS mornings took great pleasure in basically saying. She didn't want him answering any questions about their relationship. Well, maybe the other change for Belichick is 24 year old Jordan Hudson, his creative muse, as he writes in his book. Make sure that Jordan was a constant presence during our interview.
You have Jordan right over there. Everybody in the world seems to be following this relationship. They've got an opinion about your private life.
It's got nothing to do with them, but they're invested in it. How do you deal with that? Never been too worried about what everybody else thinks.
Just try to do what I feel like is best for me and what's right. How did you guys meet? Not talking about this.
No, no. It's a topic neither one of them is comfortable commenting on. So why do all of this publicly? Like you can be you can be a public figure. You don't you don't have to share your relationship.
Or maybe it's just me. Maybe if I, you know, put my information and my relationship online and and I don't have to answer questions about it, which is well within their right. I don't know why create the curiosity and then just try to control what you get as it's natural.
Ask that it is your public figure. You make your relationship public. Now, why not be shocked? People talk about it. I don't know. Hickey, wait until the football starts.
Is it going to be good at North Carolina? Are we entering into a bleep show? She already Bill Belichick already wants to see seed on all of his emails. And you think she's going through his mail to paying his bills, setting his itinerary? She's doing it all, huh?
Oh, I think so. I actually think this is what Bill wants. Oh, a young a young a young woman to run his life. Exactly. To where he only is focusing on one thing. Football.
Football. She seemingly is in charge of everything. She's telling him what to answer, what not to answer, where you're going, who you're talking to, what time. It almost seemed like she's controlling his entire life outside of football.
We don't know. It's what he needs. It's what he needs. I think it's what he wants. That's that way.
He doesn't waste any brain power or any time thinking about things that have nothing to do with football. She picks out his clothes in the morning. Oh, definitely. Would not be so. I mean, you saw the shirt he was wearing, the Navy shirt. I know it's classic Belichick with the holes in it. Yeah.
I would also probably say that maybe was on purpose. Why? What do you mean? The holes in the shirt or what do you mean? I think the outfit choice. I don't think it was an accident that on CBS mornings when Bill's actually been dressing up, you know, he's worn suits to UNC basketball games and at least, I mean, because he's barely been at UNC, all the UNC stuff he has clothes-wise is not ragged and tatty. He's only worn it once or twice.
Yeah, yeah. Now you want to go deep in the closet and bust out a 1955 Navy crew neck that's cut around the neck, have a hole, you know, in the chest. I would assume maybe just to, maybe that's when Bill was at his finest when he didn't care what he was wearing. Maybe it was like, let's try to get back to that. And so you're going to dress like that.
Cause that's how you were back in the day. All right. I just, I hope this ends well for Bill Belichick.
Okay. I hope we're not witnessing an elderly gentleman being taken advantage of by a younger woman. Even if this is what he wants to a certain degree.
Nobody wants to be taken for a ride. You know, I don't know. I'm not Bill Belichick at the same time. Well, yeah, I'm not hickey. I'm not, I'm not 70, however old. What is 73?
73. Yeah. I'm not him.
I'm not him. Oh, you think that's what's going on here? Like a little taking advantage of, I think, I think there's always the possibility.
Why not? Like, I mean, from a, I mean, what can she get from him besides information and financial security, right? Maybe she sees he wants all of the wisdom that he has in his brain. I don't know if this was so normal, we'd see more of it, but we don't. And people, people tend to you know, typically hang out and meet with people that happen to be in their own age group.
Unless, in most cases, there's some type of, you know, financial or power structure that's involved. Done. That's it.
This is like, let's call a spade a spade. So I just hope for his sake. I mean, he was just with a woman who was closer to his age range. I think he, the woman he was with was she had to be in her what, 50s or 60s, right? Yes. Yeah. He was with that lady for like, I don't know, 10, 15 years, maybe more. And all of a sudden, he she's gone.
And now you got a 24 year old. Oh, little creepy if you asked me, but hey, it's none of my business. If you ask them, I can only go by the photos that they put on social media.
Good luck to Bill Belichick and good luck to his, his girlfriend that wants you to know that they're dating, but doesn't want him to talk about it publicly, because you just got to go buy the photos on Instagram. Because it's 2025. Because it's 2025. That's the world that we live in. Meanwhile, on the basketball court, I can't believe the fans are still there.
I guess they want to get their money's worth. The Cleveland Cavaliers are still destroying almost doubling up on Miami. As of right now, the score is a free throw 100 to 53 if four minutes left to go here in a third. Hickey, I'm trying to see if, do I know anybody on the Miami Heat or have they kind of started to wave the white flag? Started, they waved the white flag midway through quarter three in game, game three.
You're right. But I need, do you know any of these guys on the court? Have they put, put bums out there yet?
Not bad amount of bio. Just scored that last basket. I see Tyler Hero still out there.
That's BAM with the headband on, huh? That is. Yeah. I hope Asia is not bad. It's a tough, tough way to see your season end.
Oh, Asia Wilson, huh? I think Andrew Wiggins is still out there. So it looks like they got a lot of the starters. Yeah.
Andrew Wiggins never looks like he likes basketball anyway, so I can't tell if he's a bum or not. 48. Wow. Making that, that Grizzlies Thunder game actually look competitive from game one.
Yeah. 103 to 55 is the score right now. Do you see what the live point spread is on this game? What is it? 45 up.
What is it? 45, right? 45 and a half is the point spread right now.
The live line. Oh my. That has to be a record for the playoffs. Yeah, it has to be. Who's that? Who's that? Is that Jovitch? No, who's that guy? Larson?
No, I have no idea. I know who that guy is. That's Pat Riley. He is pissed off. He's just looking around like, who can I fire at the end of this game?
And we know Spulcher will never get fired. We had Alonzo Mourning on last week. I think now we know why Alonzo didn't want to talk about the Heat.
You might know something that we didn't. This is up. There he is. He's sitting right next to Riley.
How about that? I'm kind of shocked he's not trying to get suited up here as a competitor that he is. Yeah, he sends some sort of message. He can go ahead and help. I see a Bob McAdoo sitting right behind him.
I don't know who that other guy is. And Bob McAdoo looked like he was taking notes as to who we need to cut at the end of the game. Like what are we doing? And Alonzo was in his phone. Bob McAdoo was taking notes. Pat Riley was sitting there like he was about to put a hit out on somebody. So yeah, Pat Riley's press conference at the end of the season. It can't be scathing because Jimmy Butler is gone. I just can't wait to see who he gets at because this is what a sad sack way to end the season. Miami Heat. They better hope for Kevin Durant or something.
I have no idea. It's the J.R. Sportbree show here with you on the Infinity Sports Network. We'll take a break when we come back. I told you Shador Sanders has interest from another football team. I'll tell you what that team is on the other side of the break.
Somebody is waiting in the wings if things don't work out in Cleveland. It's the J.R. Sportbree show with you on the Infinity Sports Network. You're listening to the J.R. Sportbree. Oh man, this is a very New York segment here.
The song is very New York. I was just... Hickey, I just got a message from a guy who played in New York. Andre Reed. He wants to come on the show and talk about something that he's doing. So we'll get Andre... Yeah, we'll get Andre Reed on soon.
And then something else in New York happened. Help me out, Hickey. What the hell is this guy's problem? Why even say I want to wear Lawrence Taylor's number? Why? We're going to have some guy going to Chicago Bulls and say I want to wear 23 Next? What are we doing? I get it.
Not a smart move. The only defense I will give is that he is coming from a program at Penn State where they did not retire uniform numbers but instead have used that uniform number as like a legacy number. You know, to uphold a standard. So a Penn State 11 for linebackers is like a big deal. LSU does it with number seven but LeVar Arrington started it.
War 11, they call it the sticks. Micah Parsons wore it like some great Penn State linebackers have wore 11. This ain't Penn State no more, man. I'm just saying like that's where his mindset is.
He views it as like okay I'm going to wear 56 because I want to like continue the legacy and tradition of that number and uphold a certain standard that comes at wearing five six. Let's save that for college, bruh. You're in the pros now. This is what he told Micah Parsons last week.
This was on his Micah Parsons bleach report show, what he does when he's not losing for the Cowboys. First of all, I had to make this clear. You ain't, you're going to get that 11, right? I don't know, bro. I got a different number in mind. Oh, I'm heartbroken already. I told the dude he's going to get that.
I said we better have the best swap in the history of football. What number are you thinking, bro? I don't know. It's 56.
Sound real good. Dude, that would be pretty damn special. Now, if you get something like that, now I get why you leave that number somewhere else. Yeah, number 11 is also retired. Phil Simms, a former quarterback. His number is retired. 56 is retired from Lawrence Taylor.
Apparently he spoke to Lawrence Taylor and Lawrence Taylor said, nah, bro, go do your own thing. And so it looks like, Hickey, if I'm wrong, I might be. He's going to wear number 58, right?
I did not see an update. Really? Oh, I think. And I believe the Jesse Armstead with I think Jesse Armstead wore number 58. I like Jesse Armstead. I've spoken to Jesse and get Jesse on the show as well. No, yeah, Jesse wore number 58.
Well, I mean, but how many numbers can you can exist? Jesse Armstead was a, you know, pro bowler, all pro every now and then himself. So, wait, Jesse wore 90.
Oh, Jesse wore 98. Knock yourself out. Okay. All right, good. Hickey, I already told you, I don't be remembering nobody's numbers.
You've got to be good for me to remember you. Okay. That's fair. I was hoping 58 was taken. That's a pretty ugly number. 58?
Oh God, that's disgusting. For a linebacker? Oh, I picture you having a bar down the middle of your face mask, not running very fast. I mean, probably wearing a neck roll, which is bad-ass, I would admit, but I don't see anyone in 58.
I picture you as a white linebacker with not a lot of speed and not a lot of athleticism. Who's the last dude in a neck roll? Was it Mike Alstad? Was it him? We've had someone with a neck roll. Was there a defender out here? We got to bring that back.
That's a shame. A neck roll is good for your neck, right? Well, I don't know honestly what the point of it is. To protect your neck when you're getting jammed up the middle. I don't know.
Keep that neck from going back and hurting yourself. Okay. I guess. I mean, yeah, I guess you're getting pushed back. I don't know.
I don't know the physics of it. Yeah. You don't want to be paralyzed. No, I agree.
But maybe, you know, why then all of a sudden we get rid of that technology then? I don't know if they got rid of the technology versus guys just don't wear it. Come on.
You don't see guys running, but who's out there? These guys aren't wearing jock straps and cups anymore, are they? I don't think so.
Not many are. No, you're right with that. Yeah. It's not like they stopped and said, don't wear it. It's just they're free out there. Okay.
They're not worried about danger. Okay. No. Me, I don't play. I ain't got time for this. That's why I just sit down and watch with no sound. I'm not endangering myself.
I'm afraid when I walk across the street, my knee goes the wrong way. I'm afraid of things like that. Okay.
Got better things to do. Anyway, 888-710-4ISN. That's 888-710-4ISN. I did share with you that there is some interest for Chidora Sanders services outside of what we originally see here with the Cleveland Browns. And so apparently, Chidora Sanders is having interest or has interest from the CFL. Dave Naylor, who's from TSN.
It's up in Canada. He says the Toronto Argonauts have added Chidora Sanders to their negotiation list. And so if he doesn't make the Cleveland Browns roster or if he wants to play in the CFL, Toronto will have exclusive rights to sign him.
Oh, man. This is like one of those. No disrespect to the CFL. Next thing I know, I'm gonna get a bunch of callers from Canada.
I'm gonna get guys calling up from the UFL and whatever the heck it is, XFL. This is like one of those those gimmick signings when somebody doesn't want to give you a contract. And then we have one of the adult services offer somebody a deal.
You know what I'm talking about, Hickey? Yes. Yes.
Well aware. Like somebody won't give somebody a contract. And so one of the websites just writes an open letter and says, hey, we'll give you a contract if you do so on and so forth. It's just like, what a great publicity stunt that is. So I don't know if the Toronto Argonauts are really looking for Chidora Sanders or if they're trying to, you know, hop on the publicity bandwagon right now and offer him a job knowing that he's going to say no. Like Chidora Sanders and the CFL. I mean, Dion went on a whole thing about, oh, I'm going to dictate to where my son goes. And then Dion said, oh, I'm not going to dictate where he goes.
I'm going to follow the process. But you can go to the CFL. I highly doubt it.
Hickey, could you imagine if he never really gets a legitimate shot in the NFL? Wouldn't that be crazy? It would be crazy. Yeah. No. Yeah. I, I'd be very, I mean, I think he's going to start at least a game or two for the Browns this year. What do you think about that? I do.
I do. And I think, well, what does it start in September? Maybe by the time we get to October, he gets, he gets in there. I mean, if you can't beat out Kenny Pickett and Joe Flacco for not, not week one playing time, but like week 13, 14 playing time. Oh man.
What are we doing? Right. I mean, the NFL is writing your evaluation, your backup guy anyway, then, but at that point, is he getting a legitimate shot? Or is he just being kind of thrown to the wolves? I mean, that's, that's the other thing. Probably thrown to the wolves, but I mean, it also seems like with Cleveland trading down right from two to five and getting that extra second, uh, extra first round pick next year, it already seems like they're looking at the quarterback for the, uh, for the future in next year's draft anyway.
Yeah. So it seems like your door then you would think would be on a different team either in 2026 or 2027. Like he does, he's not long for Cleveland to begin with. Is somebody just going to sign him?
Like, I don't know. I mean, if the value, like we already saw his valued plummet to a fifth round pick. What is his value on the trade market? Very low. I mean, would you just cut him if you're Cleveland at that point? Give him the boot.
Like league minimum or close to it. Like you can get a good deal if you believe in him. We had Mary Kay Cabot here from cleveland.com and she basically said that part of it was like the Browns were just throwing him a bone at the end. Like, yeah, we like him here. We didn't pick him. What the hell is just select the guy and see what happens.
You know, wow. Andrew Berry should have just said that. And I mean, we, we, we spent some, some good time earlier in the show talking about why he potentially fell and you know, his perception, perception versus reality, the draft process for him, the potential influence of his dad.
And there was a clip that I saw a pre draft. It was both he and cam ward working out and cam ward was basically telling shadore like, man, I'm just focusing, focusing in on football. And shadore was asking him like, man, you don't have any other hobbies. You know, shadore does music because of course he does music. He's like, let's do a song together.
He's like, you don't have any other hobbies. And cam ward is like, uh, no, I just want to be known as an American football player. Period. Listen to this from well off media. Come on brothers. Make a song. Let's drop one. I play football.
Here we go. You ain't got no hobbies outside of that. Play football. That's the only, I don't want people to know me as football players. Let me see American football.
Yeah. I don't got, I just played football and that's what let's be real. That's what coaches want to hear that you got a rap career or everybody already knows that you come from a wealthy family. You know, your dad is a Colorado dad is only dude has ever coached you in your life. I guess it's a lot.
It's a lot. Hey, I'm rooting for cam ward. I'm rooting for shadore too. I'm not going to say he got a, he got a raw deal, but it was just a, an entire mix of everything that could potentially go wrong. It went wrong for shadore Sanders.
And now he has to go out there and earn it. That's what Andrew Berry said. No preferential this, no preferential that, uh, yeah, I think we get the picture and we'll see how things work out with the Cleveland Browns for shadore and Dylan Gabriel and Kenny picket and Joe Flacco.
And I guess the other guy is going to be rehabbing in another room. The Sean Watson, the Browns are just a, uh, they're a curious case of an NFL franchise. Wow.
It's shadore to the CFL. Uh, I, I think not. I think not. It's the JR support re-show here with you on the infinity sports network. 8 8 8 7 10 4 ISN.
That's 8 8 8 7 10 4 ISN. When we come back, Hey, I'm going to tell you something that, uh, that's positive for Washington, DC. Yes. Something positive is happening in the nation's capital.
Yeah. I'll let you wonder what it is on the other side of the break. Of course, we'll talk about a few things that took place this day in sports history. You're listening to the JR sport brief. It is the JR sport re-show here with you on the infinity sports network. 8 8 8 7 10 4 ISN.
That's 8 8 8 7 10 4 ISN. I got some good news from my people in DC. I'm going to tell you about a few things that took place this day in sports history.
But before I do that, I'm going to go ahead and pick up the phone lines right now. We got Glenn calling from Niagara falls. You're in the JR sport re-show. What's up, Glenn. Hey, Jr. Always a pleasure to talk to you and Ryan.
I talked to Ryan last way in a little bit now. Uh, my friend, um, I just wanted to say, first off, I don't really think it's anyone's business who anyone's dating. I mean, yeah, 50 years. That's massive, but he's not the first or last, uh, let's face it. The money has a big role on it. It has to, um, and the old soul thing. I don't think, uh, I don't think that's quite there, but I mean, we've got you after everyone used to praise him all, you know, like, I just think, let them live their lives. If they make mistakes, that's up to them, unless they're, you know, proven to be seen now.
And someone's taken over taking advantage of an older person because they don't know what they're doing. He, he knows what he's doing. He's bought the coach, you know, uh, North Carolina. So you better know what he's doing. So I just think it's none of our business. And if that's what he wants to do, that's what he wants to do now in terms of, uh, Chidor, uh, not going to CFL.
I want to completely write that off. We had back in a day, Warren Moon, one of the greatest quarterbacks ever. Well, Glenn, Glenn, we can go, we can go, we can go through Warren Moon and Doug Flutie. Uh, we've had Warren Moon. He joins this show pretty regularly. Yeah. We ain't talking about back in a day. We're talking about talking about 2025, please tell me the most recent quarterback to come out and have success in the CFL.
Who's had success in the NFL over, let's say, I don't know, maybe like the past 10 years. Yeah. Well, we haven't, there, there hasn't been an initiative or a situation, but here's the thing I'm sitting on Jerry, I'm sitting on the bench. Look at what we, we did.
Okay. The CFL has a new commissioner. He's going to want to leave a mark when they brought in.
Do you remember rocket Ishmael? The number one pick remember how much they paid him, right? I'm not saying anything is impossible, but if that man, if that man has to go to the CFL, then man, he might as well kiss his ass.
Goodbye. I don't think given what we've seen over the weekend, as it regards to, you know, how he feels about himself and his talent, that it'd be worth it. He would absolutely hit ground zero in regards to his career. If he had to go to the CFL, given the expectations that he had of himself and that his father had of him.
Yeah. Well, what if he's like the fourth in line, which he is now, I know he's, he is, he's not, but what good is that if he's just sitting on a bench for two years? Like, well, we both know it's not, he's not going to be sitting on a bench for two years starting next year.
He is going to get, as Hickey and I said, we both believe that at some point in time throughout the course of the season, he's going to get a chance. Whether or not he happens to be a lame duck that he's thrown to the wolves, he's in a dysfunctional situation. They go out, well, let's just throw them out there and see what he got. That's to be seen.
That's why they go out there and play the games. We'll see. I think he'll certainly get his chance and his opportunity to start. And I'd be a little surprised if he doesn't get that opportunity this upcoming season. I hope he does. I'm just saying I could see the silver writing him a large check, not that he needs money from where he comes from.
I'm not, thank you for calling from Niagara Falls. I'm not disagreeing with that. What I'm saying is I think that he would A, reluctantly do that.
And then B, that be one hell of a fall. Okay. I don't know if he'd do that.
Of course, anything is possible. And who's going, he, we might as well start a league in Taiwan. Okay. Can we do that for him? Roger Goodell's on line one with that idea. Where's, where's Big Baller Brand? Did they, he had to send, didn't he send the one that wrapped, does he have another single out or is that over already? I hope, I think it's over for that song.
Whoa, that song is done already. He's not getting play. I think it's a one and done. It's a good sign though. Give him credit. Yeah.
And I think he had, he had another song and that one's done. Oh, and as it relates to Bill Belichick. Oh yeah, of course. Well, it's my job to have an opinion on things. And if Bill Belichick is going to say something publicly or not publicly about his relationship, then that's a, it's kind of fair game for me to talk about. Listen, I don't care what he does in the bedroom. That's his business.
But I have an opinion. And I think a 70 year old guy hanging out with a young woman, Hey, if it turns them on and get some going, that's great. But for me, it's a little creepy. You know, I don't want to be 70 something years old, hanging out with a 20 something year old. I hope to have a woman who I love that I'm with and they can, can kind of grow old with not have her take care of me.
And I got to look at her and go, Oh, you got to enjoy your youth while you got it. Good for him. He gets to get a, you know, have the time with a young woman. Good for him.
A lot of older gentlemen would like, so to me, creepy. Okay. Anyway, yeah, I got some good news for people who live in DC. You're ready for this, this, uh, Washington commanders team. They're going to play at the site of RFK. They're going to fix the stadium up no more going outside of town into the burbs to watch this stupid team play at FedEx field or whatever garbage they call it.
I would never go like, why am I driving out to a trash can to watch them play football? Not anymore. Back at RFK. Listen to this news clip earlier today. A matter of fact, this is yesterday from NBC four in Washington. That breaking news is big news for DC and the commanders. Several sources familiar with the plan told news forum, the commanders and DC leaders will announce a deal tomorrow that will bring the team back to Washington, DC after sitting vacant for more than a decade.
Football will be returning to the RFK stadium site where a new stadium will be built. Those same sources told us all the details on this deal are expected to be announced by the commander's ownership and mayor Bowser at a joint news conference Monday morning. Now news four has been following the details of this pending deal from the very beginning.
Multiple sources told our Mark Seagraves earlier this month, this deal could be worth more than $3 billion. Good. I hate going to football stadiums outside of town. I hate it. Hey, take note, Chicago, please keep the stupid bears in downtown on the, on the lake.
Don't send them out into the burbs cause I ain't going. Anyway, it's time for a few things that took place this day in sports history. Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, but some days I sit and wish I was a kid again. It's time for this day in sports history. You see, back in those days we had radio and you couldn't see anything and it was primitive and lousy and we liked it. On the JR sport brief show.
I wish I was 50 years younger and I'd kick your ass. Hey, April 28th, it's 2025. You want to know what happened this day in sports history? The Boston Celtics won their eighth straight championship in 1966. They knocked off the Lakers in a game seven.
They beat them 95 to 93 red. Our box said, I'm retiring. Bill Russell said, it's okay. I'm going to take over as a player and a coach. A matter of fact, here is the final call. The Celtics beating the Lakers again. Sixteen seconds left and only a six point difference. And in this type of game, the Celtics better get that ball over half court. There you see right our back as he's lighting up his cigar with governor John Volpe standing by Volpe just blowing up the match. And there is red where there's victory cigar. Casey Jones, Casey holding the ball.
That's it. The game is over and John Helveticek is running for his life and Bill Russell. Eight straight world's championship certainly is a unbelievable feat. Man, could you imagine somebody smoking a cigar on the sidelines as they won the championship?
Could you imagine a cigar smoke filling up arenas? Yeah, we live in a different world, a different space. Hey, April 28th, 1967 Muhammad Ali, he was stripped of his heavyweight championship. He refused induction into the military. He says everything going on with the Vietnam War don't got nothing to do with me. I ain't fighting.
The man's boxing license was suspended for three years. This is Muhammad Ali in 67 explaining why I ain't going to no Air Force. I will say here boldly now on television, no, I will not go 10,000 miles from here to help murder and kill another poor people simply to continue the domination of white slave masters. Hey, listen, this man was ultimately loved. I mean, people certainly love to, you know, pick and choose what they stand for, what they don't stand for. I mean, that's one thing he was he was for his convictions. I wish we had more people who stood up for things that they believed and in a positive sense, like I don't know, humanity.
And how about this? This day in sports history as well, 1992, some gigantic baseball player was born. His name is Aaron Judge.
Aaron Judge turned 33 years old today. The Yankees ended up losing to the Orioles four to three Aaron Judge still leading baseball number one O.P.S.. Meanwhile, the bleeding is almost done here in Miami, Cleveland, with about a minute left in the game, getting ready to send Miami off to an official vacation. Cavaliers lead 138 to 80, about 50 seconds left to go.
I can tell a hockey is out there because of his hair. I'm just waiting on Pat Riley's end of the season press conference. I'm sure it can't be all that crazy, given the fact that Jimmy Butler is gone.
Jimmy Butler is going to be in action tonight, by the way, for the Golden State Warriors as they try to go up three one against the Houston Rockets. What a day. What a recap of everything that took place over the weekend. We'll be back with you tomorrow at 6 p.m. Eastern, 3 Pacific.
