It's the JR Sport Brief show on CBS Sports Radio. I hope you're having a great night wherever you're at, whatever you're doing. All my people at work, all my people at home, my people at school, my people getting into the money, my people... Well, not... I don't... Hey, Shep, I can't say people stealing money, right? I can't say that.

Oh, people do it, but you can't say that. Yeah, the people stealing money at work, congratulations. I'm here with you. I ain't stealing money.

Shep's not stealing money. We're earning our cash. Anyway, we'll be hanging out with you for the next three hours. I've been sitting here for an hour already. It's a four-hour show. I get going every single weeknight at 10 p.m. Eastern, 7 Pacific. If you want to listen to every minute, if you want to listen to every second, you hit rewind on the free Odyssey app.

It's not that difficult to do. Thank you to everybody on your local affiliates tuning in live, stations all over the country. Just spoke to somebody from Vancouver. I'm coming to you from Georgia.

Shep is up in New York. We got people in San Diego and San Antonio and Wisconsin and Idaho and Buffalo and Florida. Shout-outs to our occasional caller who hits us up from Bulgaria. Hello, Bulgaria.

People are everywhere. Shout-outs to you. Anyway, first hour of the show, we talked about Anthony Richardson. Indianapolis Colts said, hey, man, you're the starting quarterback. Even Anthony Richardson could not believe it. He said he was shocked.

Take a listen to this guy. Honestly, I was shocked. I've been grinding and putting in work just to get the title, but it's not really all about the title. I'm just trying to make sure I'm ready for the team despite being labeled as QB 1. I still got other guys in the room helping me get to that standard, so I'm forever thankful for them. I appreciate them, and I'm glad I did get the nod, and I do have the trust in everybody in the building to think that I am QB 1.

Hey, look, this is just me, and of course it's me. I'm the dude sitting here giving his opinion. What the hell is a rush to play the guy? There's none.

Indianapolis Colts aren't winning anything this season. What's the difference between him sitting down for two games and starting 15 or however many? Let him get both experiences. Now he could potentially be in line for a yo-yo. He'd throw him out there to start, and if he sucks, now they gotta put him on the bench for him to watch. Just let him get benched from the get-go. Let him sit and watch and then go play.

Two experiences out the gate, better than one. So congratulations to Anthony Richardson. I certainly hope it works out for him. This dude is like Derrick Henry and Cam Newton with RG3's speed, which is just ridiculous. Speaking of speed, this dude is an MLS. He is playing at his own speed.

His name? Lionel Messi. Tonight for Miami again. He scores another goal again. Six games, nine goals. Miami beats the Philadelphia Union, and Messi scored the second goal to make the game two to nothing.

Ultimately, they won four to one. Hey, listen to Lionel Messi. You might as well get used to this.

This is courtesy of Apple TV. He's great. He is. He's doing exactly what MLS wants. He's doing exactly what the soccer world here in the US wants. He's bringing attention to the game.

Here, please believe this. If Messi wasn't playing in America right now, I wouldn't be talking about MLS. I wouldn't be talking about Miami. Miami is one of the worst teams in MLS since Messi showed up. They're now undefeated. They're going on to one of these inter-season cup games, the League's Cup. We wouldn't be talking about MLS if Messi wasn't here. Get used to it, folks.

World Cup is coming here 2026. Get used to it. The Braves beat up the Yankees tonight five to nothing. Congratulations to the Braves. The Yankees, oh my God, they're 60 and 60.

The world is going to collapse onto itself. They haven't been this bad since 1995. But at least Messi is here.

Something to be positive about. 8-5-5-2-1-2-4 CBS. That's 8-5-5-2-1-2-4 CBS. As we continue on with the show, Messi is one legend. We'll talk about another legend. His name is Dwayne Wade. Last night we didn't have an opportunity to really dive into it. I want to talk about Dwayne Wade and his Hall of Fame speech showing a lot of love to his dad.

Unfortunately, this is the opposite end of the spectrum. Michael Orr, I'm sure by now you've heard about his beef with his, I guess, former not adopted parents and all the craziness going on there. Speaking of soccer, Neymar is going to Saudi Arabia. The WNBA scoring is up. Lamar Jackson trying to put up points with the Ravens and now he has some input on the offense.

Brock Purdy, he's been given the full go-ahead without restriction here with the 49ers. So we got a lot to get into. We got callers who have been waiting patiently on the lines. Let's talk to them and then we'll get into Dwayne Wade in this situation with Michael Orr which continues to progress.

Now the family is hitting back at him. 855-212-4CBS. Let's go to Bob. Bob is calling from Michigan. You're on the JR Sport Reshow. What's up, Bob?

Hey, how you doing? You know, I wanted to kick around in this era of the running quarterback and it really is an era right now. The quarterbacks are two for one. They play two positions so they're making big money and they don't really need the great running backs. But if you don't have a running quarterback like my Lions, you know, Goff doesn't run so they still have a lot of running backs and they're young and deep. But Goff played all 17 games last year. Most of the running quarterbacks last year missed at least a couple of games.

Not all of them, but most all of them. So and I agree with you when you say they're throwing the rookie quarterbacks right to the wolves, you know. If they're in trouble for the games fast, run your way out of it.

Use those legs and it'll be exciting, but holy moly, they come and go quick sometimes. Yeah, well it's everybody wants ROI. I mean, look at this is a perfect example what just happened with Jalen Hurts and the Eagles. We know Jalen Hurts had to kind of buy his time until he finally got his shot as the Eagle starter. He had to prove himself that he was going to be the Eagle starter and he did it on on a discount because of his time coming out of college and being demoted. And then he took him to the Super Bowl.

Let's really think about this. The Eagles almost won the Super Bowl and now they had to pay Jalen Hurts. You know he wasn't making no 50 million dollars per year when they went last year. And so teams want to strike before they have to write these big deals. I mean the Cincinnati Bengals are another example. Joe Burrow hasn't even signed his second contract yet and he's going to be on the precipice of making more than Herbert.

Probably 51, 52, 53, 54. So hey, they want a return on the investment and they want that return to come quick. It ain't no wasting time on that. 855-212-4CBS, Anthony's calling from Baltimore. Hey Jay, you're a worker, a worker wants to broadcast, sports broadcast and broadcast. Congrats to you and your success.

Well thank you. What's up? I got a comment on the decision made by the kingpin or a drug abuser owner, co-owner Jim Irsay.

Okay. He's setting this guy up for failure. Studies have found that sports broadcast is more likely to attribute a black quarterback success to superior athleticism attributes versus a white quarterback success to superior intellect. We were deemed incompetent in the 80s like Vince Evans, quarterbacks like Vince Evans who should have been a starter in my opinion, Doug Williams who should have been a starter, a long-term starter in my opinion. They said we couldn't comprehend the playbook and when you look at the modern day offensive system, they have microphones in their helmets in which like Brock Purdy, Kyle Shanahan can easily be like hey throw it to tight end, he's open.

It's a double standard. Warm Moon should have never had to go to the CFL when he was a Heisman quarterback. The best quarterback ever is Warm Moon.

Ever. And I say that with conviction because you know he could read it off. That's my opinion.

Yeah it is, it is. I certainly don't believe so. I think we'd have to if you want to talk about potential and athleticism and what could have been but what wasn't then you can certainly make that argument but when you live in reality and you want to look at what was accomplished and I wouldn't put him in that in that space. Okay well on the contrary compare him to John Elway. John Elway didn't win a Super Bowl too. He had who?

Terrell Davis. Yes but that's but Anthony my point my point is we can play the the coulda woulda shoulda game. I mean I can look at John Elway and talk about him being a supreme athlete who could have gone and played hockey or could have gone baseball and he played he played football. I mean we can play the coulda woulda shoulda game. I can play that with any athlete in any point in time but I'm only going to look at the realities of what has taken place but to your point yes in a different world it would have been real cool to see what his entire NFL career would have looked like having not gone to Canada. His passing yards would have been up there with Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Yeah. And we're being ushered out the door to Donovan McNabb, Cam Newton.

They should have been able to pick the day that they didn't want to play football anymore. Well I think I can say this. Okay. Do I believe over the course of time and this is this is not a belief this is a fact. Do I believe that all black quarterbacks have been treated fairly? The answer is no. The answer is hell no.

But if you want to bring up particular instances one case does not fit all. Cam Newton ran his body into the ground. The NFL didn't necessarily tell Cam Newton to stop playing football.

His body and then his attitude did. And so I'm not gonna make a blanket statement and kind of put everybody in the same bucket as to why they're no longer in the league. Is that reasonable? Yes that's reasonable. Okay. Now I'm starting to get off the subject now. Well Anthony I gotta be honest here. I gotta let you go.

You've been here for quite some time now. Well Gordon Mitchell is a star. Jacoby Brissett is a star. So Gordon Mitchell is a gunslinger.

Look at his numbers they are and I'm gonna let you go with that. Well thank you. Yeah well I think for for Anthony Richardson I think it it would behoove him to maybe sit and learn from Gardner Minshew his positives and his mistakes.

I think that'd make the most sense. That was a that was a long ass call. I mean damn.

Oof. Hey chef am I allowed am I allowed a smoke break like when the caller is going? No right? Probably not.

Yeah no. There was a guy though pretty good on the radio. He used to take a lot of smoke breaks. Anyway 855-212-4CBS. That's 855-212-4CBS. Hey Jay he's calling from Arkansas. You're on the JR Sportbreeze show. What's up Jay?

My age ain't nothing up but my blood pressure. Thank you for asking. Your last caller had that comment about black quarterbacks and I can't remember how many years ago it was. The sport illustrated had James Harris from the Rams on the cover and there was a section in there talking about why black coaches and quarterbacks don't last in the NFL. You got any comments on that? I don't know if you're even old enough to remember that or not. Do I have a comment on what the the article or the premise?

Either or. Well first I wasn't necessarily 100% clear on what you've referenced but to talk about the overall premise it's not surprising. African-American coaches and quarterbacks typically have a shorter leash than their white counterparts. If you don't have success you don't necessarily get the same A go-round or same leash to go ahead and have success. That's just a matter of fact. Right. Well I didn't know because I was back sometime I guess in the 70s.

We can look at the current time and current era and we can look at coaches who fail and then fail up and then we can look at other coaches who fail and don't necessarily always get the next go-round or chance or opportunity. Well I didn't mean to waste so much of your time you know that. Well you were more succinct than our prior caller so I appreciate you Jay. Well it's just that back then that we're still here in the hills of Arkansas there was a lot of that racism and whatever going around and yeah well I couldn't believe that. Yeah there's unfortunately Jay there's racism all over the place and not just in the hills of Arkansas but the entire country and unfortunately the world.

It only takes a little bit of eye-opening and people experiencing things different to kind of change their perspective. I appreciate you for calling from Arkansas though you have a good night okay. You too thank you. Thank you Jay. Thank you Jay.

Appreciate you. It took me it took me some real listening to try to really listen. You got a you got a deep old voice yeah. I had to listen deeply to know what he was saying. It's the JR Sportbree Show here on CBS Sports Radio 855-212 for CBS. Hey I promise you when we come back from break you won't have to listen deeply to anything.

We're going to talk about a guy and his dad and a good relationship. I'm happy for him. It's the JR Sportbree Show CBS Sports Radio don't move. You're listening to the JR Sportbree on CBS Sports Radio.

We've talked to the They were listening to the JR Sportbree on CBS Sports Radio.

It's the JR Sportbree Show on CBS Sports Radio. We've talked to Anthony Richardson. We've talked about some of the other young quarterbacks. We've talked black quarterbacks and their opportunities in the NFL and we talked about Messi a legend and let's let's put some positivity out here onto the airwaves you know we didn't get a chance to touch on it last night but I'd be remiss if I didn't didn't show love here to Dwayne Wade and actually acknowledge the love that Dwayne Wade just overall showed to his own dad the love that Dwayne Wade showed to Allen Iverson it's what I would say is a dose of positivity I don't know too many people really I don't know anybody really that has a negative word to say about about Dwayne Wade and and not not not because of what he's done as a basketball player and winning that championship with Shaq leading the way and then winning another couple of championships you know with that LeBron James guy being a multiple time All-Star being an all-world defender at the shooting guard position blocking shots all over the damn place going to the basket like a man on fire always on the ground because he played so hard I'm just talking about Dwayne Wade the dude never heard a negative word uttered by the man and so it wasn't surprising on Saturday as he was inducted into the Naismith Hall of Fame that he wanted to honor two people who helped influence him just in life in general well first let's let's think about the the basketball influence that would happen to be Allen Iverson there's a reason why Wade wore the number he did there's a reason why he styled himself on the court the way that he did and it was for the man who inducted him into the Hall of Fame and that's mr. Allen Iverson who came out wearing a number three on the back of his suit as only Allen Iverson could this is Dwayne Wade showing love to AI I wore arm sleeve throughout my career because AI did I respectfully what a number three throughout my college and NBA career to represent the love and a respect that I have for this man so from the bottom of my heart you are the culture and we love you and we thank you Allen Iverson and he went past that he went back even further a little bit more personal than Allen Iverson at one point during the ceremony Dwayne Wade told his dad to stand up and then he ushered him on to the stage yeah I'm sure Dwayne Wade knew his dad before he even knew who the hell and Allen Iverson was and he certainly paid him those respects listen to this so even though I hated being called little Dwayne I admired you as a kid I admire you now we had the same exact dream and we carry the same exact name Dwayne Tyrone way to know we hustle all the way to the basketball Hall of Fame is God's will so pops I know your knees a little sore but will you join me on stage as we take our rightful step into basketball heaven I love you and I'm thankful for you I love you too man we're in the Hall of Fame dog yeah that gotta be cool especially for his dad I mean how many how many fathers can just say oh man this is it's what I have like you can have hopes and aspirations and dreams and especially today we have so many what a helicopter parents they call them now they see the money that the athletes make they see the opportunities that are in front of them and instead of just supporting their goals and aspirations they just I need you to be this superstar I can't even count how many times that you could just pop open the phone and you know some parent is losing their ever loving mind at a at an AAU game some parent is berating an umpire at a little league game and it goes man and you wonder why a lot of the professional athletes that we end up with why they're the ones who run around like like petulant children and so congratulations to Dwayne Wade senior and junior that's a hell of an accomplishment and for all of the the love and accolades that we see shown and shared between the players it's cool to get a direct acknowledgement from Dwayne Wade to his dad Terry you know it's fascinating about that shoot is that you know we we know of his mom she's been in the public eye she was in a commercial with Dwayne Wade in his final season I think that's the first time and you and I have watched basketball forever and we remember Dwayne at Marquette we remember Dwayne as a rookie in 2003 obviously played 16 seasons that's the first time I have ever seen his dad in public and for him to bring up his dad in the fashion that he did I've never seen that ever at a Hall of Fame speech before it's just amazing that we didn't know really anything about his dad and for his dad to get that kind of spotlight I mean one of 180 that was in terms of the life of Dwayne Wade yeah and I think it's I think it's pretty cool especially like for what I just said when you have so many so many loudmouth parents it's nice to a certain degree that LeVar Ball yeah we can look at his his aspirations from a business perspective and the support for his sons that's great but then when you look at the other element that he brought to it being being ridiculously bombastic but then also being being loud and outlandish it's pretty cool now and his sons all three are in different levels of the league one is still has all-star potential coming back from a broken ankle another son the knee is blown out the other one not even in the league but it was nice to see him take a step back and let his sons get to shine and so yeah you're correct I've never seen Dwayne ways dad I believe his mom I think she is a preacher or a reverend or something of the like and I never seen this dude's dad before and so it's nice as you mentioned to just see him you know go out there and get some some accolades and get some love it's it's cool you know people have varying degrees of relationships with their parents not everybody has their dad in their life not everybody has their mom in their life not everybody has the best familiar relationships but when you see that that bond that exists and that's there you can't help but appreciate what we saw and I remember vividly one thing I'll never forget and people can crap on Kevin Durant until you know the sky turns a different color I'll never forget if there's one MVP speech that I remember and I probably heard every single one from the past a long time decades the only MVP speech I remember is when Kevin Durant told his mom she's the real MVP because it's real and it hits you and there's something about just just familiar love that you can't take for granted so congratulations to Dwayne Wade and congrats as well to everybody else that that went into the hall this past weekend whether it's Pop of it or Gasol I know last night we briefly talked about Becky Hammond you have Tony Parker going in Dirk much love to them all eight five five two one two four CBS that's eight five five two one two four CBS I'm gonna get to some of your calls on the other side of the break I told you we had some positivity and I guess now we have to be hit with reality over the past few days the past two days and maybe this has been bubbling now for years former NFL offensive lineman Michael or he's beefing with I guess what he thought was his adopted family they made him sign allegedly a conservatorship and and now they're bouncing back or hitting back at him it's it's not looking not looking pretty it's not looking familiar at all we'll talk about it it's the JR Sport Brief show on CBS Sports Radio you are listening to the JR Sport Brief on CBS Sports Radio you are listening to the JR Sport Brief on CBS Sports Radio what you have you can't even put a price on it is you have a platform and you always handle your platform with responsibility and for that I look up to you and I respect you and I appreciate you call in now at eight five five two one two four CBS it's the JR Sport Brief show on CBS Sports Radio eight five five two one two four CBS that's eight five five two one two four CBS you know right before we went to break we talked about Dwayne Wade the love that he showed to his dad and if you've been reading any type of news over the past couple of days you know that there's the the opposite of love I I guess I don't know if I want to go as far to call it hate we all know about Michael or former NFL offensive linemen drafted by the Ravens they made a whole story in a movie out of him the blindside Sandra Bullock he hasn't played in the league since 2016 okay wanted a Super Bowl championship with those Ravens made another appearance in 2015 with Carolina and he's been out of the league and so he's been he's been working he's been busy putting out books yeah just put out a another book and this is this is where a larger shoe was dropped over the years we've gotten inklings from Michael or that he didn't necessarily appreciate how he was portrayed in the film we got senses or or feelers that you know there was some animosity between him and the Tui family which which took him in and now it's it's gonna step further the Tui's who brought him in as a high school student Michael or is saying they tricked him into signing a document that made them his conservators and that they didn't necessarily adopt him and that they they made him sign his document gave giving them legal authority to make business deals off of him he said they never really adopted him they only tried to make money off of his back off of his story he said they embellished the story and a matter of fact he was on Jim Rome show shoutouts to DA who was holding it down Damon Amanda Laura and he was talking about his book and he was more so talking about the misconceptions and and what he did not appreciate from being in that that the film and just as an overall and in this is what Michael or had to say I think it took away the hard work in the dedication that I created from a child and going to school in the third grade in myself up first one in the locker room last one out and I think the biggest for me is you know being portrayed not being able to read or write second grade I was doing plays and for the in front of the school and I think that's one of the when you go into a locker room your teammates don't think you can learn a playbook you know that weighs heavy on someone you know and you have to understand I understand that the movie has given me a position I'm honored to have the position it's given me but you know you have to understand before I moved in with the family I was an all-american that's what I want the generations behind me to see in this book right here to understand that you don't have to come have someone save you and rescue you to go out and be successful you got every tool in you and this book right here is a playbook on life yeah it's the book by the way is called when your backs against the wall and so he has made these claims that the family has pocketed all the money and he hasn't really seen a dime of it and he doesn't get a split but everybody in the TUI family sees money and and let's also keep this in mind the TUI family is is worth a lot of money we're talking millions upon millions of dollars according to the TUI's own lawyer he says they are worth more than a hundred million dollars so what's it matter to me or you it doesn't they got a lot of money and so their retort and response to all of this is like we've we've given him a split of everything and oh yeah by the way he's shaking us down before he filed this petition in the courts of Tennessee he had a lawyer come after us and say hey give me 15 million dollars or you know we won't file this and and so this is just a a nasty back-and-forth I can't tell you who did what or who didn't do what this is just ugly all around as the the allegations get tossed around and so what was a I guess that a good heartfelt movie back in in 2009 The Blind Side here we are in 2023 and and slop is being thrown by both parties and participants in the movie it's it's bad here I don't know who's telling the truth who's not could Michael or be out here looking for some money it could be could the family said okay well we'll take a few liberties and maybe but they got tons of money I mean would they want to go ahead and reach for more it's it's just ugly all the way around man what's on your mind shot well JR just very quickly that the thing that's troubling about this is you know this was not just a great film as you alluded to in 2009 this was nominated for an Academy Award like this this changed Sandra Bullock's career she was she won an Academy Award like this was huge back in 2009 so what I'm really troubled with is that if someone came out in my life and I had a movie about me and said I didn't know how to read and a family is the reason that catapulted me into getting a scholarship in the first place and catapulted me into playing the sport a sport I never even saw there's such a misrepresentation of what actually took place in this movie and his real life here's where I'm confused why come out with this 14 years later and JR why are there not more vocal people whether it was teammates whether it was teachers because JR a teacher would come out and say whoa let's hold the role on this Michael knew how to read Michael knew how to write like let's not completely false you know falsify and mischaracterize this young man so that that's what's all confusing and troubling to me about this story I think it's I think it's early I still think it's early like the we've gotten for a few years now that there was there was some beef there and and what people typically won't do publicly is it's kind of you know yell from the mountaintops unless they they have their own personal agendas that they want to go out and and kind of feed so I'm not I'm not all that shocked that no one has popped up what would I be shocked over the next few days if we started getting some stories where this is not true or true the cat is out the bag we've heard about some of his displeasure over the past few years but to know that he filed a petition and in court looking for money because of what he felt was false representation this opens things up just in a grand way but I agree with your earlier point what what took so long I mean their lawyer says hey this ain't the first time he's come knocking at the well and he's had other lawyers who have filed the petitions or at least he tried to get them to and the lawyers are just like man I ain't touching this you don't got you don't got too much to stand on and they say now he has a lawyer that does it's gonna play out I mean are they gonna end up in court likely and then we're gonna find out soon enough you know who was was being a jackass was it him was it the family it's just a terrible situation these things happen all the time not not with the same degree not with a movie not with Academy Awards and you know not for public consumption but this is why I said what would happen with Dwayne Wade and his dad when you see these instances played out publicly you can't help but go man damn that's that's a sweet thing that's a beautiful thing to see eight five five two one two four CBS that's eight five five two one two four CBS Daniel is calling from Ontario you're on the chair on Sportbreeze show us up Daniel alright today good what's up hey I just wanted to say you know NBA players a lot of them are known for their egos and for for Dwayne Wade to do that it's just amazing he's always I always thought he's a class act you know it just shows shows the type of person he is how he was raised yeah I can't think of of anything well I I do believe I do believe at one point in time he was not with Gabrielle Union I believe he he was able to go and have a child outside of his relationship they none of my business well everybody makes mistakes right like yeah all things considered in his career what's the what's the dark mark we're not going away you know professionally change exactly but not to change sports but you know I'm more of a hockey guy and watching you know the Wayne Gretzky play and everything was about his dad he praised his dad constantly right so it's great to see no it's nice to be nice it'd be nice to see less jackassery and more honor in sports and thank you Daniel for calling from Ontario like I'm all here for I want to see competition I want to see beef I I enjoy the storylines but you know all the time like oh my god like James Harden did he get dropped on his head did he did somebody drop James Harden on his head are his braids too tight is he that into himself and I think the answer is yes to all of the above you want to talk about an ego who is feeding James Harden some of this information where he's just blasting the GM and oh my god he's he's a liar I'll never play for this dude ever again Oh spare me we'll get into that dude even his agent now is chiming in Don is here from Birmingham in Alabama you're on the JR sport brief show good yeah honest movie deal you know with a kid in the event of perhaps so they had nothing to do with writing the movie the movie was written by other people and they will put stuff in there make it more dramatic but he's doing the wrong people he should be sure and if he didn't like the way he was portrayed in the movie he should sue the people that made the movie his his issue isn't so much with the individuals who made the movie his issue is with the family in the sharing of the proceeds of the film that is the petition that he filed with the court he says that the family lied to him not about the contents of the film but about the agreement that they had and even his agreement with the family that would allegedly take him in and adopt them that's his issue well they couldn't they couldn't adopt him because he was 18 so they had to draw up a paper so well that is his that is his point he says that he was tricked into signing of papers that listed them as his conservators that is his point yes right right so that's the only way the college would let him play okay so are you you telling me or you want to tell him this no I'm somebody you know there's a lot of different twist on but I'm saying the college wouldn't let him in without somebody being you know they couldn't he was too old for him to adopt so they signed that conservative or whatever you call it you get him where he could play college football what his his issue is that they tricked him into signing it that's his point and they only did it so they could make money off of him yeah well the daddy daddy just the father just sold his businesses for two hundred million dollars I don't think they need a whole lot of money yeah I would think so too I know they've been heavily involved in a restaurant business and if he thinks if he thinks that they have taken him for a ride and we're gonna find out if he is trying to take them for a ride or an easy out then we're gonna find out this is like a good way out of the legal system

in and they take the story no that's that's not that's not wholly accurate at some point in time at some point in time you have to sign on the dotted line to release your life story and so it's a
