It's Nuts To Consider Trading Micah Parsons

Some people just know they could save hundreds on car insurance by checking Allstate first. Like, you should know you should check your draft stats first before you put them on your fantasy team.

Or, you should definitely check the expiration date on that can of bean dip you picked up at the gas station first before you dive in. Yeah, checking first is smart, so check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds. You're in good hands with Allstate.

Savings vary, subject to terms, conditions, and availability. See Allstate.com for details. Allstate Fire and Casualty Insurance Company and Affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois.

No, don't worry, love you. The Rich Eisen Show. Brock, Del Tufo, Whistle, T.J. My brother from another mother, love you. Live from The Rich Eisen Show studio in Los Angeles.

I love this. Earlier on the show, Prime Video TNF analyst Ryan Fitzpatrick. Coming up, Basketball Hall of Famer Grant Hill, CBS Sports NFL analyst and Super Bowl Champion Jason McCourty. And now, it's Rich Eisen.

Hour number two of The Rich Eisen Show is on the air here on a busy Friday going into President's Day weekend. 844-204 Rich, number to dial, getting ready for the NBA All-Star Weekend where we'll wonder if the best thing is going to be the three-point shooting contest by the end of the weekend. You know, the new format. I mean, I think I always look at Cooper, my 13-year-old, soon to be 14, as the arbiter of whether it's going to be good or not because he's the new target demographic coming up soon. He's like, tell me, Dad, I think Shaq's going to win it. Because his team, apparently, has got Jokic and SGA on it and he thinks that's the best team and he's already looked at it.

You know, that's what he'll be talking about. You don't like it. I'm thoroughly uninterested. You don't like it? Nope. Probably, I'll watch maybe the Saturday Night stuff. And the slam dunk contest?

Uninterested? Yeah. Mac McClung is going. Is he going again?

Yeah, I think he's going for a three-peat. Like, great. Why don't the players want to do it? They don't want to get embarrassed.

What do you mean? Because they'll miss dunks? Is that what you're saying? Or lose to somebody that nobody's ever heard of?

Like Mac McClung? Yeah. They don't want to be embarrassed. You make these things matter, you put a $5 million prize out there, and guess what?

All the Stars will do it. It's a money thing? For sure. Come on. It's a money thing for money. Come on.

I don't know. You put a big prize poll, you do it like the World Series of Poker, you put $5 million in cash right at center court, guess what? All these guys will do it.

Well, you know what? If it requires money to get these guys to do it, then exactly. No one had to pay Dominique Wilkins to be in the dunk contest.

No one had to pay... Right. This generation has killed All-Star Weekend and the game itself, so you got to have some sort of incentive. Like, look at all the gimmicks that they've come up with for this game in the last five years. This generation has killed the All-Star game. By what? By jersey swapping?

They're all friends. Not what? Like... They don't want to play hard.

The era of Kobe waving Carmelona off the blocks because he wants to dominate somebody in the All-Star game. Mode management. They don't even play every game. You know, by the way, I'm less, like, mad about that than you guys are about to load management. But, you know, we play in a fantasy basketball league, right? Right now, I have seven out of the 16 players I have have I.N.J. Injured. Me too.

Me too. So I can't even, like, fill the team. So what am I supposed to do? Like, I know all these guys. Not in the same way. They're hurt, not injured, I'm telling you. And I'm normally, like, not that... I don't really get that riled up about it, but, like, come on, man.

Difference between pain and injury. I'm completely with you. I'm completely with you, but I'm just assuming once this All-Star break is over, now we're going to buckle down and figure out who's making it, who's not.

That it will be on the line for a lot of people, and we're going to start seeing players play. Yeah, when it counts. Except Kawhi. Kawhi will never play a back-to-back night the rest of his life. But Kawhi's one of those guys who, like, I know that there is a legitimate injury. We've seen the injury. Is it really? Is it really? Because he's looking great to me.

That's fine, but, like, the man has an arthritic knee, apparently, and that condition does not get better. So... At any rate, we've got ourselves an NBA All-Star weekend coming up. We just did a great job of previewing it. I'm sure the association's very happy with that preview.

It's their own fault. Well, congratulations. That came from last year's All-Star game, right?

Because it was so bad, and that was just the way that he handed off the MVP award, correct? Cool. Take it.

My goodness. The parade that's going down right now. Let's check on our fantasy rosters right now. We drafted a fantasy team, each of us, offensive, defensive, and a flex position of who's going to be the stars of the parade. That's Jalen Hurts right there.

Love Hurts. I like it. Great jump, man. I like the chapeau. I like the chapeau right there. He always rocks that. He's got the chapeau. Looking good. He's fresh back from Disney.

Right? Saquon. We've got Saquon Barkley on the parade. Let's see him. Oh, he's got his... Bud-like goggles. Bud-like goggles.

He's being sprayed with some form of alcohol. Okay, so there you go. He's with the fans. That's good. I'll take that. I'll take a point. He's your first overall pick.

I'll take a point there. Reed Blankenship was the final pick of the flex position of TJ's fantasy parade team. Yes. Here he is being chanted with Cooper because people think he's Cooper DeGene. And he's saying, I'm Reed. Very good. I think that's CJ Gardner-Johnson next to him with a T-shirt that we can't show or we refuse to show, or at least the guys in the back are protecting us from wanting to show because he's using the Roman numerals L-I-X to spell the word licks in a T-shirt.

About an undercarriage can be serviced through the Roman numerals. I mean, at this point, you might as well show it. No, no, it's okay. TJ, let me handle the subtlety, please. I say that to the author, but that's what she said, Book. I'll just shut up. No, I'm not saying that. See how that feels? Sorry, Jason.

No, that wasn't me. Anything else from the parade right now? That's all we have.

So right now- There's some dudes out there slapping five with the crowd walking by. Is Jason Kelsey not there? Did I waste a pick? Haven't seen him yet.

I wasted a pick. He's my flex. Oh yeah, CJ Gardner-Johnson is on the rails next to fans.

He appears to be spanking a fake horse that he's riding while giving high fives. I think I'm going to win. Well, you're ahead with that pick, I think has been the number one choice so far. And is Cam Jurgens anywhere? Haven't seen any Cam yet. Looks like one of those nice days. Wait, who's the commissioner? Who's judging this? Looks like all of us together. I think it's- It's a beautiful day in Philly. Looks like one of those northeast days where there's not a cloud in the sky.

And it's probably like 30 degrees and you can wear your jacket a little open. Oh, there's Big Dom. None of us took Big Dom.

I almost did. I just thought to myself, though, that there's no way he's going to get rowdy. Well, he's protecting Jaywin Hertz right now. Hertz is walking down the street and Big Dom is right behind him. With the trophy. With the trophy. Big Dom.

That's him in the white hat. I got in trouble. The first time I ever got in trouble on SportsCenter was when I did- The first time.

The first time. Yes. Meaning there were multiple. Yes.

Got it. There were times when I got called into an office to say, what were you saying? What were you thinking?

I mean, it's 2 a.m. You got to keep yourself entertained. Yeah, I know that. But the first time I ran into trouble was during the coverage of the Broncos parade. I forget which one. You know, because there were two of them. And Pat Bolen was riding in a convertible, open top, in the parade, Lombardi in one hand.

And to his right was his wife, who was much younger than he. And I scripted. That's, again, my problem is I scripted it. I put it in writing. I should have just set it. And that way, I would also have the backs of my producers who checkmarked it because they didn't see the video. I just saw the video and I wrote it down.

There's Pat Bolen with his trophy. That's what I said. Accurate. Well, some people, I think, read into the double meaning and complained. And I got called into an office. Who complained?

I don't. Have we ever sussed that out? I found out eventually who did. And there were some people who thought I was being misogynistic or objectifying. Like they were telling on themselves. And I was saying, again, the best way to get through that sort of stuff is to say, what accuracy did I put out there? Like, what was wrong? There he was holding the Lombardia. That's what I was referring to.

What were you referring to? Yeah, you spin it back on that. Yeah, it didn't work for me. So I stopped scripting things. That's what I learned a long time ago. You know, just don't script it. Just say it.

Just say it. And ask for forgiveness. Thank goodness I'm still here. Thank goodness I'm still here.

844-204-RICH number dial on the program. Hey, let's talk about the team in the NFC East with a chance to scare the Eagles a little bit next year. Let's talk about it. Because you got your G-men who made news yesterday saying they're going to sell 10% of the team. Do you see that?

Wow. You're going to put 10% of team up for sale? Well, the league passed this rule now allowing the... Hey, and everybody thinks that they're going to make more for their 10% than that.

Didn't Jeffrey Lurie this year as part of this Super Bowl run sold a piece of his team that the percentage of the piece that he sold for the team was more than what he bought the team for for 100% of it? Yeah. Yeah. So there's the Giants. They're making that move. We're wondering if they're going to get their quarterback in the draft. And could this be the new Jayden Daniels with Malik Nabors, right?

I'm trying to paint this rosy possible picture. But the commanders, as we all know, was the team closest. Then there's TJ Jefferson's Dallas Cowboys. And the crazy talk of the Super Bowl, the crazy, crazy talk of the Super Bowl was that they would actually wait to sign Micah Parsons in the same way that they've waited to sign Dak Prescott and waited to sign CeeDee Lamb.

And that they would take this thing through the summer. And then once the training camp hit, actually consider trading Micah Parsons or go into free agency. And before anything goes down, trade him in and take the massive haul of draft choices and utilize them in this year's draft.

I just think it's nuts to consider trading Micah Parsons by any stretch of the imagination. And Micah Parsons said this very week, just yesterday in a public appearance, that there's a plan in place, TJ. There's a plan in place. He has spoken with Jerry Jones and there is a plan in place to have conversations.

We're planning to chat. And also, Micah had this to say about the State of the Union. He gave a sort of a State of the Union address on the approach to free agency he's looking for. I don't want to sit back and just watch other people build and build and build and I, meaning we stay the same. But we definitely need some call to action. I want to see us be aggressive. And I want to see us get us players that's going to help us. That's going to come in and make an impact. And I want to see us bring back our own players that are just as important.

Let's see what we can do there. There's been a new wave in the NFL. You saw it with the Rams. They drafted some of those guys you can't always hit like that.

You know what I mean? The Niners went and got Jevon Hargrave and they went and got some impactful players on their side. There's some success to it. You look at Philly and how they went and got Saquon and how they went and got Zach as in Bond. Everyone doesn't need a max deal. There are great quality players that can do one year or two year deals. Obviously, we've seen that this year.

There's been a trend. Which makes total complete sense, which is exactly why Dallas won't do it. That's exactly what I thought they should have done last year.

That is exactly what I think the Cowboys should do. Be smart. Get those one or two year players. Get yourself your Zach Bond.

Obviously, there's very easier said than done there, but go ahead and do it. Who wants to play with Dallas? Who wants to play with Micah and CD and Dak? I guarantee you there's a lot of people that would love to do that.

Trade two number ones, three number ones, hell, five number ones in Cleveland for Miles Garrett. Don't care. Get it done. You know three is the only max that you can do. The rule is three. Rules are meant to be broken. That's true. Contracts are meant to be broken.

Gary does make up a lot of them. But that's the whole point is there's ways to do what Micah is saying that the Cowboys did not do last year. And the question is, will they do it differently this year? Unless they can't because the man on the screen waited too long to sign Dak and CD. Well, the thing, Rich, with CD is he didn't even take the max. He took a little less. He said it being the top paid wide receiver wasn't a priority. So here's a guy who saved them some money and they still didn't do anything.

That's right around the corner, guys. Will they do a big Micah Parsons quoted on the Cowboys website, Dallas cowboys.com. Maybe he should be the GM because that sounds like a plan. Another guy in charge said he didn't have a plan, but he had an idea of a plan or something like that.

And he got over, Micah has an idea of a plan. Well, I guess the Joneses would probably push back and say, well, who and how much and where does that fit in here? And how much are you willing to let us do that by not saying you want Nick Bosa money or Justin Jefferson money?

Going to not take the max, from what I understand. So you are right over there, everything good. Like I said, 12 months. What do you mean they're on the clock? Who's on the clock?

The Dallas Cowboys. I'm not going through that, Rich, for as long for God willing, you keep me on this show for as long as you don't want it done. And the thing is, I don't want to have to go through this groundhog day for the rest of my life on this show.

Like it's just it gets old personally. I don't want to have to keep like we got the richest owner in sports. We should be fantastic and we don't care. We're not serious about winning football games. I see our hated rivals succeed. They're the blueprint. Do what the Eagles are doing, but they won't.

Well, guess what, TJ? We have actual paperwork for this sort of thing. I have a manila envelope.

If you're talking contract, I already have a contract. No, no, no, no. This is better.

It's not manila. Whatever this folder is, I got a folder here. And it is an actual certificate that is a release of fandom presented to TJ Jefferson from the Dallas Cowboys 2025-2026 season. And it's got the seal of approval of Rich Eisen Consulting. Here it is.

It's excellent card stock. And you can thank Jay Felley for coming up with this idea and actually doing it. Would you sign this right now, TJ? No, because I already said, well, 2025 is this year. You know what we're going to do? We're going to keep this right here.

You're giving them one more year. Is that what you're telling us? I've said that.

I've completely said that. OK, OK. You will not sign this certificate. You're released. You will be released of fandom. I'm going to see what kind of moves they make. I'm going to see how the season turns out. And if it's not up to my liking, I'm going to become the Rob Lowe of the NFL. I'm just going to be a fan. What if it's end of April and free agency was a total bust like last year?

They do nothing. Draft was a draft is like, you know, a bunch of guy, un-sexy. Then will you reconsider maybe post draft? No, I said I'd give it a year.

So we don't need to keep showing this certificate for the next several weeks and months. It's great, though, feller. I love like we'll have a talk. You and I, he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Yeah. Fellers always trying to like, here's what I'm going to do, you know, nudge me on the deal. And, you know, why would you do that to me, Jake? You know, we have the notarized stamp. Jay is a notary self-proclaimed myself as the R.E.S.

consulting. Oh, there is a proof by Jay. Oh, great. That was a very nice seal. And if I'm not mistaken, you have multiple seals over there, right? Do you have more seals?

I do. And potentially. Chris. So should we make up a Sixers certificate, Clippers certificate, Clippers, Sixers, Penn State. You have multiple seals. There's three more. We're ready to go. Should we make up any more certificates? No.

Florida State, you should definitely get rid of. Chris is placed on my desk today with this post-it note that says, just in case, Jay fell. Now you're at me. Oh, no, no. I'm not ratting you out. You put your name on her certificate seal.

That's fair. You've approved it. There it is. You're an author of notary. You gave yourself the title of official notary of R.E.S. consulting. All right. I'm here for you. Is he even part of R.E.S.

consulting? I thought it was just. Whoa. Whoa. You know what I mean?

That's what I thought. Best thing about us. It's about us.

It's about us. Just because Del Tufo is now on the every other day plan. Every other other day?

Every other other day plan. Jay was in the Super Bowl open. I mean, that's true. That squirrel found that nut.

He got his line cut. All right. So you're not going to sign that. You know what? I'm going to keep it here just in case.

And here's what I'm also going to do. I'm going to keep bringing it up for the next half season because that's going to get old. The only way it could get old. You. Yeah.

But then I just won't respond to it. Well, it won't be funny. We can dust off the Jerry Jones as Jerry Lewis telethon host right about that was all last year as well. Every single time they actually signed somebody, we put it up on the Timp.

We played a timpani and then put it up on the tote board. We didn't sign anyone. That was the whole joke. Eventually did. What? Eric Kendricks, right? Yeah.

It was a whole joke that they didn't do anything on the off season. And yet, well, Micah gave the blueprint pal. We'll see if we'll see if somebody reads it. Here's what I'm going to do is I'm going to put it in the drawer next to me. And unfortunately, this is in the trash.

I think we vote. No, no, I won't do that. I'm not going to do that. I'll put it in the trash.

We've also reached this moment on the program is that this 2024 schedule laminate that TJ put together. I'm going to throw it out. It's not throwing it out. I'm putting it away. File it away.

I got mine, too. It's almost a desk. I tried to write on it with a pencil. It did not work. Freaking bummer. Not Patricia. What a bummer.

You can't write with pencil on it. Season's over. 202 days.

Till the start of the season. I can't believe every one of these games has been played over and over. All played. Done.

And then 13 playoff games. Gone. Oh my gosh. When you brought this to us, we were like, look what we have to look forward to. And now it's just over, man. Well, here's what we have to look forward to, and it's right here in my jazz drawer and the certificate that is unsigned at the moment of a release of fandom, an excellent card stock.

Listen. Where'd you get the card stock? Very nice.

It's not flimsy at all. It's so good. With the special seal of approval. Amazing.

So what you have to do is every time you're in for Del Tufo, you have to bring your notary kit. Oh, it's here. We got it.

Oh. We got it. Is there a notary for Rich to release his Jets fandom? I mean, should we have one of those? Sure. Why not? If he gives up the Jets, will you give up the Cowboys?

No, because like the thing is, like I said, in his lifetime, his team's never won. At least I've got a little something to hold on to. I will sign that. If I'm calling the Jets game in London, I'll sign that before it. So I don't hear the crap that I got from Vikings fans thinking I was rooting for the Jets. Oh yeah.

It'll go away for sure. But hey folks, when I call a game, I am rooting to change the overtime rules to allow a second one, because I don't want to leave. I don't want a tight game. I want memories. I want to nail the moment.

I want to live in the moment. I do not care who wins a game that I'm calling, period. The thing is, if people don't believe Joe Buck, they're definitely not going to believe that from you. Why?

Because Joe Buck's a liar. What? Is this someone? What? No, I'm just... How dare you. Obviously kidding. Joe Buck on line three.

My favorite Joe Buck story is when he was getting ripped for rooting for the Yankees in Red Sox in a game that was on Fox. And it wasn't him? He tweets out, I'm not calling. He responded to somebody saying, I'm not calling this game. I'm at home. Okay. Just to show you, I don't care. I'm not there. Don't care.

Like it rhymed. All right. Joe gets some... Let's see. Pop it up. Pop it up. Let's see. There it is. Zero at moment.

At the moment. There you go. No new Cowboys. We'll see how long it stays at zero.

Because Micah Parsons, number 11, has said, let's not keep it at zero this year. What are we like three weeks away from free agency? We are at two weeks from today, two weeks from today, there's on field drills at the combine.

It's day two of on field drills at the combine. Two weeks from today. Four weeks from the... And then, yes, then comes franchise tagging and stuff like that. It's right around the corner. It's going to be here. It's all happening. It is.

All right. We'll take a break here on the Rich Eisen Show. 844-204-RICH number.

As of right now, we have a new paperwork still unsigned. Let's talk TurboTax people. You might be sitting there going, wait a minute, Rich.

And he's got, I mean, by the way, the beer can in his hand looks like it's one of those mini bottles you get on a plane, right? There was no chance he was not going to be. Yeah, but he's not. You thought he's a man. What do you mean? Yeah, but you thought he was going to be on a float or something.

That's just the start right now. Are you kidding me? He's walking down the street. He's just walking down the street.

He's having his coffee. Oh, he's not speaking. He's not on the team. He's emeritus. What are you talking about?

He is emeritus. So, Chris, you mean to tell me if the Patriots win another Super Bowl and Tom Brady just can't talk? No, you're not on the team. You can't go.

No, they can't. They're not on the team. Oh, my God. All right. Then it becomes about him. And now he overshadows everyone else who actually played this season and won the Super Bowl. So maybe you won't talk, but you don't think he's going to be on the podium? You don't think he'll start it? Then it becomes about him.

No, it doesn't. It's about Philadelphia, Chris. All right, I'm done. I've said my piece about this. He has said his piece. He's not that type of guy.

Well, I mean, I don't know. He's been everywhere this year, but... Hey, C.J. Gardner Johnson, Jason Kelsey and Cam Juergens, I'm in. Cam Juergens might be the weakest link of my fantasy parade. Yeah, I think Cam Juergens doesn't seem like the type to get too wild. But these linemen, man, when you get those big boys going, who knows?

My lotta. I thought that was going to be a pick that I would... I'm still expecting something like, I don't know, him shotgunning a kegger or a beer. A kegger. He's just like, I'll take that right to the face.

That would be quite a party trick. I haven't even spent a second on Makai Becton being a Super Bowl champion wearing green. And it's not with the Jets. Don't even get me started. Sign that paper, bro.

He switched positions. Where is it? Where's the piece of paper?

Exactly. Back on the Rich Eisen Show radio network, I'm sitting at the Rich Eisen Show desk furnished by Grange with supplies and solutions for every industry. Grange has the right product for you.

All clickranger.com or just stop by JC and Travers City, Michigan. What a beautiful part of our country that spot is. What's up, JC? Rich, how's it going, man? What's going on? Great to have you be back on the air with you. Thank you.

Thanks for joining. What's on your mind, sir? Well, I heard you mention a couple of times that Tom Brady pulled a page from George Steinbrenner and the infamous Drew Henson move when he signed that great quarterback to a Yankees contract. And it took Brady a long time to pay him back and grab Chip Kelly. Yeah, I mean, Steinbrenner, a big Ohio guy. I'm imagining he was a Monster Buckeye fan, George Steinbrenner.

I bet he was. But yeah, man, Chip Kelly, bring him in. Helps you out. Praise Ohio State, it's a brilliant move. You think that Kelly is good enough to be back in the pros running an offense? Oh, absolutely. I think it's a great choice.

I think it's a terrific choice. And guess what? If he wants to be the HC down the road, five, six years down the road, I mean, that would you.

I know the first time it didn't work out in Philadelphia and then getting one in Dundon, San Francisco. Right. I don't know. I mean, it's worth a shot. That's for sure. Certainly, when your coach is getting hired late in the process and Chip Kelly can be brought in as your OC.

The issue is, JC, and thanks for the call, appreciate it. The issue is, who's the quarterback going to be there? Yeah. Who's he going to be?

Quarterback room, Shadore Sanders, Russell Wilson. Let's go. That's pretty fun. You take it.

That's pretty fun. And if you're a Raider fan, Jay, you are, you'd sign for that, I think. Yeah. I think we're headed the right way. I agree. I love the hire of Pete.

I think it's great. And they keep Patrick Graham in the DC, keep him, keep Max Crosby happy, stick him extra Christian Wilkins, you know, trade for Myles Garrett. Here we go. That'd be amazing. Trade for Myles Garrett.

That's fun. You have to give up that number six pick. I think you do. So then it's Russell Wilson starting a quarterback. You're not great. You're not giving up six though. I don't love that. They're not doing that. I don't love that.

There's a chance Shadore could drop to you. So. Absolutely.

At six. Yeah. No doubt. Yeah. I agree. Again, Shadore Sanders, taller than you think.

Oh. Bigger than you think. Bigger than you think. No doubt.

No doubt. We saw that firsthand walking around Radio Row on Friday when he was there. Bigger than you think. Bigger than you think. And you know, right after we interviewed Prime last week, Chris and I kind of got to chat with him a little bit about Shadore, man. And you know, it showed before during the interview.

But the fatherly pride when we brought up both of his kids, man, it was just really cool just to see and have that moment with Deon where he's just very proud of his kids and just doubled down on the fact that they're both hard workers and they're there to put in the work. So. It's a Friday. You ready to do it?

Chris Brockman. It's what's more likely. Hit it.

Go for it. What? What's more likely?

Never say never, but never. All right, Christopher, what do you got over there? Hey, guys. Happy Valentine's Day. Good to see you. Same to you. Everybody good? You're going to notice a little bit of theme with this one.

OK, see if you can pick up on it. More likely final four participant this year who had their heart broken to get it healed next season. Bills or Commander's. I'm going to go Bills, not wow, yeah, because I don't know why you that's done.

That was great. I'm going to go Bills because the commanders didn't have their hearts broken. That was house money they were playing with right there.

They got smoke. I know their heart are the ones who had their hearts broken because it's the Chiefs again in Arrowhead, again, they had a chance to knock off the Chiefs again after beating them in the regular season again and couldn't do it in the playoffs again. And you're wondering, the Chiefs don't make it and the bills are wondering and their fans are wondering what do they got to do again? So that's heartbreak. That's heartbreak. Not what the commanders just arrived way earlier than expected, and that was house money and they were already ecstatic and they know the page is turned and Dan Snyder is as bitter as ever, and they're as happy as ever, and that makes everyone there happy. So that's not needing much mending. The Bills need mending from a broken heart.

All right, fair. Chris, what else? Guys, who's more likely to find love in a Super Bowl win next season? Either the Eagles or Chiefs or any other 2024 playoff team. So you're saying who wins the Super Bowl next week?

Play along. Come on now. No, you're saying so the Eagles and is it more likely the Eagles or Chiefs win next year or the field or any of the playoff teams of the playoff teams?

Oh, man. With the Lions giving you Bills, giving you Ravens, commanders, Chargers, Chargers, Texans, Packers. I'll take the field.

I'll take the field. Throw the Niners in the mix, too. And you got me. Well, they're not in the playoffs. They don't make the playoffs.

I understand that. Can we throw the Niners in them? Absolutely not. What about the Cowboys? I mean, since they're very close, because it says 2024 playoff team, it's right there in the black.

I mean, he does have a point onward, more likely eight and nine lonely hearted team from last year strutting their stuff in 2025. We're not even eligible for this one culture commanders, sorry, culture cardinals, culture cardinals. I can't read.

Okay. After you said you wrote it, you're like the screen culture cardinals, they were both eight and nine. I don't know cardinals.

Who makes the leap? I like it. I like the cardinals. They like Gannon, man.

I enjoyed talking to him when we were zooming with him before the game. Calum, very sneaky trade candidate, though, and this stuff, really? Have you heard that?

I'm starting that. I'm seeing that every year. No.

There was internal awards from Re-Ester. No way. There couldn't have been today. Let me just say this. Let me just say this. Let me say this.

For anybody who might be thinking there's something going on underneath the surface, why would any team move on from their quarterback now when the draft isn't all that deep in the quarterback spot and the quarterback spot free agency isn't all that? Why would you willingly start from scratch now? You're starting the tank for arch in my boat. Yeah. I'll sign that sheet next year. Okay.

Speaking of iceberg, there's been a tip and something underneath. Pat was onto something talking about the Colts because they didn't push back too much. Oh, what McAfee had to say. Agreed. So I'll take the Cardinals. Okay. What else? I'm more likely to be more roses in the bouquet trades in the top 10 of the upcoming draft or Colorado players taken in the top 10. I thought you were to say this.

So what he's saying flowers that cat sends me, I thought that was going to be what he's saying. What's the higher number? There's going to be more, more than two trades in the, in the top 10 of the NFL draft between the lines. By the way, you know, what helps me in this sort of stuff is doing math homework with Taylor, you know, cause you have to figure out what the math problem is based on the language that they throw there and then, then it becomes easier.

The toughest part is deciphering what the problem you're being asked to solve is. I had this idea driving it this morning, by the way. Great forethought. Okay. So I'll go, I'll go top 10 drafts, trades.

Trades. Yeah. I'll say there'll be more than two because obviously Chador is not slipping out of the top 10. Nope.

And Travis, obviously. So that's two. Correct. Okay. What else? More likely to be the Steelers true love at quarterback next year. Oh my God. Aaron Rogers, Russell Wilson, Justin Fields.

I kind of dig that one too. I just don't see Rogers either playing or working with the Steelers. Why? I don't know, man.

It just, I don't know if that's a fit. Good run game. Did we think Russell Wilson was going to be a fit there too?

Yeah, but we're talking more about on field stuff, you know, there's other elements. You know, I'll go Justin Fields. You know what I'm saying? Chris. I feel what you're saying. Is it more likely guys that miles Garrett's flame stays burning in Cleveland or Micah Parsons roses die in Dallas.

I'm throwing your one to Tom yesterday back at you. I'll say it's more likely Micah's rose dies in Dallas because that's the crazy stuff that you don't know. We already know about the crazy stuff that we already know and that miles Garrett looked us directly in the face with the Lombardi trophy sitting right in front of him on our set and said, it's over. So crazier things have happened where they can basically say to him too bad.

And then it would force an even crazier standoff. But Micah Parsons saying, there's a plan to actually have a conversation about keeping him in Dallas and him also saying, we needed, I need to see some action in free agency. What if there's no action in free agency? What if it's the same thing again? And now he basically gave a roadmap about what needs to be done here because in the same way that burrow is saying, Hey, the Eagles are paying everybody.

It seems like that's the way to go. So why don't you keep T Higgins, Mike Brown, why don't you rip open that Velcro wallet? I'll help you put more money in that with whatever, you know, backend of the cocktail napkin deal we need to make for my contract to give you more cap room.

I'll do that. So when you saying that happens and, and, and, and, and in the same way that Micah is saying, look at the Eagles, there's a lot of big name players saying, look what the Eagles are doing and their teams aren't doing that. So I'll, I'll just say Cowboys do nothing in free agency again, or very next to nothing. And Mike is like, what gives, what else, Chris, who will have fewer candy in their box this coming year, Ashton, Gente's draft slot or Lakers Clippers combined playoff seed.

So you're saying I'm going to do a little math here. Lakers Clippers combined playoff seed right now is 11, five and Clippers are six. So you're saying is Ashton Gente's draft position going to be greater or less than the combined seedings of the two Los Angeles basketball teams.

We're on the same page, buddy. And I will say the Lakers and does Kawhi play after the all star break? I mean, you know, more than, more than, more than, uh, twice in a week, does he actually play three games in a week? Well, the great thing is the game Kawhi doesn't play Ben Simmons will play and vice versa.

So last night, by the way, and we'll see him in, you know, a week, by the way, this number could get to eight, maybe nine. That's what I'm saying. I'm trying to improve, say that they're going to, that's why I asked how many games Kawhi plays.

This is a method to my madness. Uh, I'll go, I'll go Lakers Clippers combined playoff seed will be less than Ashton Gente's draft position. Because it's, it's 12. I understand.

It doesn't get by Dallas. Okay. They're both making it. All right. We'll get one more.

Yeah. Well, they're both making more. One more guys.

Is it more likely Travis Kelsey stays in his marriage with the chiefs or takes his love to the next level with Taylor Swift? I'm going to say, um, I'll say, I'll say both. Come on. Okay. Um, I mean, what do I know?

I just want them to be happy. What do we know about any of these yesterday? We're just all speculating.

Nobody. Um, I'll go, I'll just say, listen, uh, uh, he, he stays in his marriage with the chiefs. He, you're saying he comes back, right? I'm saying comes back. I'll say it's more like next year proposes to Taylor. Right.

Um, you know, but, but it'll, it'll be chiefs first happens in that regard and then he, he does get married. How does that sound? Wow.

That sounds great. Happy Valentine's day. I can't believe you just had a Valentine's day themed edition of what's more likely and you did not include Jordan love at all. Kind of crazy. Not worthy of it. Huh? There you go. Not even savior worthy of it. Perfect.

It's like Drake versus the world. You first met Prince. You were driving for him before you were drumming for him.

That's correct. Stevie Wonder. You kind of have to understand how Stevie began. White Radio. That's where the money was. That's where it still is. Rolling Stone music now.

Go and listen on your favorite platform. What's your favorite Morgan Freeman movie? What's my favorite Morgan Freeman movie?

Give them a choice. Shawshank Redemption 7, Unforgiven, Driving Miss Daisy, Million Dollar Baby. Yeah. What's your favorite? Those. All of them.

Not one? You got to pick one. I got to pick one. You got to pick one. Life's about making decisions, Morgan. Driving Miss Daisy.

Why did you choose that one? So far away from me. Is that right? Yeah. I see that character when I look at the movie. Everything else, I just see me.

You know what I'm saying? So you became someone else? Well, wait a minute. Okay. I have a caveat here because Claire Eastwood, being one of my favorite directors and acting partners, Million Dollar Baby was pretty good. Well, I mean, you won the Oscar for that one, for Million Dollar Baby. Oh, that's right.

That is true. Although, Unforgiven to me, I've been talking about it the last two hours. That's a perfect movie, Morgan. Perfect movie. From beginning to end, what was it like working with Gene Hackman in that film? Gene is, I don't know, good actors are just very interesting people to be on stage with.

And Gene's one of the masters. He's so believable. We had a scene in Unforgiven where he had me tied to the bars in the jail, and he was beating me and questioning me. And he came up in one scene and whispered in my ear, I'm going to ask you some questions.

Same questions that I asked wherever there was, and if your answers don't match up, I'm going to hurt you. Believed him. Because I think he said, and not just a little bit. No. I'm not going to hurt you. Not just a little bit. Not just a little bit. Please.

For a split second, you thought maybe he's actually going to do that. I just love that movie. I do too.

I think it's one of my favorite people, I mean, work wise. Oh, man, you know what we also need to cut up at some point, too, is Deion Sanders sitting in this chair and Morgan Freeman came back. He did. Yeah. And Deion interviewed Morgan Freeman. Yeah, that was awesome. I mean, that's so great. And speaking of Shawshank Redemption, Clancy Brown's coming back in studio next week. Oh, yeah?

Yeah. He's also in The Penguin. Did you guys watch The Penguin? I've heard it's amazing. But I hear it's awesome. I've heard it's so good. It's excellent. It's great. You liked it? Yeah, it's amazing. It is great. Yeah, I heard that. It was excellent. So Clancy Brown's in studio next week, which is outstanding. Very excited about that. 844204rich is the number to dial right here on the Rich Eisen Show.

844, pardon me, 844204rich is the number to dial here on the program. Hyundai wants to let you know that they are there for you with advanced safety features that can alert you to potential dangers around you. Because Hyundai has over 120 IIHS Top Safety Awards since 2006. Hyundai is always working to ensure the road doesn't get you.

Hyundai vehicles have won over 120 IIHS Top Safety Awards from 2006 to 2024. You know, hold on a second. Let me make sure I heard this correct.

That's right. The Boston Red Sox just offered Alex Bregman another opt-out, and he's opting in to opting out in between two opt-outs of his three-year contract. I'm starting to feel bad for you, man. It's gotten so bad as a Yankee fan. All you have are jokes. Here he comes. Here he comes.

I feel sorry for you. They're waving Alex Bregman around second, coming around third, going home. Wait a minute. He's opting out. I'm going to have to give Cooper a call and then pitch him on coming back to Boston. Please. That didn't happen.

He'll see a World Series title before. Is that right? You think so? Is that right? Yeah, absolutely.

Oh. You want to know why? You want to know why?

Because we don't have the stupidest rule in all of sports. Which is what? The facial hair? Yeah. Who cares? I care. I couldn't play for the Yankees. They could pay me a billion dollars, and I wouldn't do it. I couldn't do it. I'm not shaving. That is insane.

You don't have a beard. I have never heard of a contract. It's three years with two opt-outs. I've never heard that. It's just basically, it's like signing a prenup.

LeBron does it every year. It's like signing a prenup. It's a one plus one. It's a one plus one. I know.

Because he's 40 now. You know, he's getting... Is he playing like it? No. So it's the same thing? It's just weird.

I've never heard of such a thing. You know what? We're going to go, I'm going to come to your team, but only for one year. And every single year, we're going to revisit this thing. Or we're not going to commit to more than just one year with you.

He's definitely going to be on the team for more than one year. You think so? Yeah. So then why do we have an opt-out built in?

In case 40 million a year is less to... In case he hits 50 bombs next year? Okay. I don't know.

Man, how is he going to hit home runs looking up? Keep coping. How's he going to hold... Keep coping, bro. We're all just rearranging deck chairs for that guy's team over there anyway. You mind? No.

Their odds are like two to one, and then the next closest team is eight to one. Why not? Why not? I hate you, Jay.

Seriously. The Dodgers get the best players. And they don't pay them. And they don't have to pay them, because they're like, just pay me $0.05 on the dollar.

You'll pay me $0.95 when I turn 50. Man, that con... Those... Stupid. Like in 2035, the Dodgers are going to have to... They should just declare bankruptcy at that point.

Yeah, right? What if their owner, his hedge fund goes under? Then what? Well, then they'll sell the team back to the McCourts.

And the money underneath the parking lot somewhere. You know? It's there. Hour three on the show coming out, Jason McCourty. And by the way, how do you feel?

Did you know that you now have company in Dodger fandom? Oh, yeah. Did you? From that show? Oh, yeah.

I got the texts. This guy. He's not a serious person. I love LA. And what? He said that to you?

He texted you, I love LA. Yeah. And I was like, okay.

And then he... So he's now... Is he really a Dodger fan now? For real? Is that something happened in the parade that you just checked out?

No, they're showing Kelsey's speech on NFL Network from the last time. Oh. So you thought maybe... I thought, whoa, did he really... Did the outfit change? Well, I mean, he's in the Mummer's outfit, right? Yeah, he was. Yeah. Dude. Is he coming out yet in that?

I guarantee you he'll come out in that again. And I don't know. I don't know. Do you know? I don't.

I haven't spoken to him since he and I finished our pregame of the flag football influencers at contests of flag football on YouTube on Saturday night. Quadruple fisting at his party? Yeah.

Pocket beers. So yeah, you've got Del Tufo now as a Dodger fan. Wow, congrats. Congrats. Yeah. Total front runner.

Yeah. Keep him. Thank you. Keep him.

He's yours. I don't want to hear it again. Oh, judge this, judge that.

Oh, yeah. He's as high and as far. He is gone. I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear it.

I don't want to hear it anymore. Under the K-Corner. You know.

New Jersey. Can you imagine? You're a Yankee fan your whole life. They do make the World Series.

And then you become a Dodger fan. Well they'll be in it too, so they'll be fine. But that's not the point. I don't have anything nice to say. So don't say it.

Yeah. That's why I'm silent. Well, you don't want them, right?

They'll be silent. You don't want them. You don't want them. You don't want them.

Here's the floor. Tell us. Tell us about the Dodgers. Dodgers are amazing.

Can't wait to go win another one. OK. Shut up, Jay.

Go back to not talking. Don't you think he might be the only guy who's doing it for the bobblehead? Like he wants the bobbleheads. Remember those little tiny bobbleheads that like people were going nuts over?

They were lining up at six in the morning. Yeah, like it's the Rose Bowl. Remember we were checking eBay and somebody was selling one for like 41 grand?

It was insane. One with his dog. Right.

Then they have one with his dog. Yeah, that was. Now here comes the what? The Sasaki bobblehead. Is that what it is? Did you see that? That the Dodgers are opening up in Japan and it's going to be Yamamoto and Sasaki their first two pitchers.

Then they'll come home and they'll have Otani on opening day. Yeah. And then and then Glass now and then Bikes now and then. Which is why, you know. Great. Yeah. I felt good about the Mets until you just start rattling that off. No, no, and it'll be great for Boston until Alex Bregman. Oh, and he just opted out again. I hate it. But he's back.
