You are listening to the GR sport brief on CBS sports radio you're listening to JR support on CBS radio SS CBS sports radio. It is the JR sport brief show and JR coming to you live from the rocket mortgage Studios, whether you want to buy a home or refinance your current one rocket can. Thank you today for supper.

Thank you Alex for helping to hold things down here with me in here with you and everybody listening all across North America people tuned in on our many CBS sports radio affiliates people locked in on the free Odyssey at yeah you can take CBS sports radio with you on your phone you can take it with you on your tablet shut Altima folks on Sirius XM channel 158 and everybody listening on the smart speaker you can find me all the time on social media at JR sport. Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

The functional talked about Fernando Tutsis Junior and his suspension. We spent some time talking about the Sean Watson in his first appearance on the football field. As a member of the Cleveland Browns and we still don't know what his ultimate suspension will end up being.

We talked about Zach Wilson with the New York Jets he's going to have an MRI on his knee. They don't think it's an ACL there hoping that it's a few weeks type injury and not months, and not an entire year.

God only knows what will happen. We talked about Lamar Jackson in his contract situation. He says that when it comes to the start of the regular season. If he doesn't have a contract in place. He won't continue to negotiate one until next off-season so he's willing to take that risk, then all means okay see what you can do and right before the break you heard from Deion Sanders and oh how can I forget this. We had a great conversation with New York Giants legendary linebacker Jesse Armistead. He joined us. He's now an assistant to the general manager Joe's chain with New York Giants and we talked about everything from cave on Thibodeau to Lamar Jackson to what he expects from his old school. When I say old school.

The hurricanes switch. Jesse Armistead went down and made his bones and so right before we went to break. I shared with you some recent comments made by Deion Sanders. He basically took a look at the Hall of Fame. The induction was last Saturday in the you know instead of trying to explain to you what Deion said.

I'll let you hear yourself.

Take a listen.

Okay will get that to you in a second on the Hall of Fame below.

You know, in the conversation already made a home available. I love it. I respected and admired thing all the guys who were inducted the undeserving, but it may be difficult. I got to be difficult it is just started 11 wrong I don't belong in no way to go all day. My old hundred been on sandwich all banking and allow the Hall of Fame of all of them you you you know know good people that changed the game. That's what all a game change game change is not a good I had a good I gave you.

Now go day changes well.

The Hall of Fame had its most recent induction last Saturday. You tell me on these individuals game changers are they worthy of the Hall of Fame. Tony was selling Cliff branch LeRoy Butler Sam Mills Richard Seymour bright young you compare that to last year. Alan Phan Echo Calvin Johnson John Lynch Peyton Manning Drew Pearson Charles Woodson mountain. Every class is not going to be as strong as is the one that preceded I will agree with Deion Sanders everybody that goes in and I mean some of the names I have to go some of the classes are full of stars and some are not. And so, yes media members from every single market basically vote for the Hall of Fame. Every candidate needs to at least what they need to receive at least 80% of the vote to be admitted in an is one of our callers said many compared to baseball where you can go a year and and not having induction. If no one gets sent. It's not the case here in the Pro football Hall of Fame every year for 28 players need to be inducted so it's not like baseball. It's not like going into Cooperstown.

This don't be so mighty that gets in every year is that watering things down 855-2124 CBS. Do you agree with Deion. I say hell yeah Andrew is: from Winston-Salem your CBS sports radio care what's up Mount Michael sure I will disagree with Deion and told me that I loved watching the on everybody get prime time. That's why we came down but only so many guys that make that impact like you said, but here that's like it's a built-in book of basketball you where it began were to get out 32 teams in the NFL everybody make a contribution of British working hard. There's always guys better not necessarily impact games typically one of things I found egregious about the NFL is the fact that there's only so many often combined.

The whole thing, but only so many tiedowns you guys like him across near one of the ones that maybe Deion might be referring to Anthony Munoz who went through 2 1/2 year stretch.

We did not give up the fat every offense of lineman in that same caliber meeting on the telly and a lot of heat. He he will Deion to his credit, he didn't name any names said he didn't even insinuate any particular place on Alana put words in his mouth all absolutely not. But with the way the game of how it how it ruptured. Now how critical it is now, especially with fancy sports betting. It almost seems like the Catholic came to be the overlying contributor to how they get into the whole thing. There was a caller that had previously asked you about Eli Manning and you know you said yeah you call Pam and it came draft class. She had been Rothberg who is definitely a better quarterback and Philbrick rivers obviously played with the charges organization which prevented him from reaching success in the playoff the same time Eli Manning never won a playoff game outside those to run it just seems to me that a lot of guys are getting overlooked only 352 people in the Hall of Fame. Not all players but where do you draw the line when this is not the basketball Hall of Fame. This is not baseball which is really hurt himself to the side argument that they only let certain people answer without drawing the proper attention upon the game that everybody in the Hall of Fame as Deion did say not put words in his mouth, but there's only so many guys going to put up the falconer certain condition. Well, I must I must share with you this I think about like offense of lineman, ain't it that there's no is in those stats that anybody's looking at nobody's looking at the amount of pancakes that I guy went out there and had there are 48 offense of lineman 48 offense of lineman in the Hall of Fame. They are 29 wide receivers in the Hall of Fame.

They are 26 quarterbacks there are 32 running backs. Therefore, if you want to put in that space and running Baxter 20 4/2 backs 32 we can go ahead and combine them it so I mean I don't know. I don't know how that argument fits if it's only going by stats not great point.

I'm glad you have a number that funny. I wish I could kill you. Now keep in mind there are five offense of line over when you say 48 be there. I should be higher.

You know, just shower. I mean we can we can say that a lot of times they're gonna be 3 to 4 wide receivers you know on the field so I mean if we got a start thinking about positions. I can say the same thing about guys who are on the defensive line.

I understand your your point where you're coming from. It's it's very valid.

It's just that Deion thinks that they just let everybody and a mom and I'll say this much in this. I don't agree with and thank you Andrew for calling it. This is very simple, why, why do they have to vote in 48 players every year.

Why is that necessary so they can open up shop and make money every year so they can have a Hall of Fame game that nobody watches the so they can you know bring money into the city like let's think about this as well.

It is a business to be able open up the town and make money and stimulate the local economy that is a part of the gig to him. I can overlook that aspect of it, but to say that every year we have to have a Hall of Fame class.

I don't think so. I don't think you need that Travis is here from Alaska.

Go ahead Travis. They are thanked for taking my call. Love your show. They think I agree with you and I agree with Dan. Hey look, something guys I know we didn't name names, but some of them yet.

We remember who they are but didn't burn up at night, making no big plays a big stats are not those guys. I like to call my gun born and raised in Tampa.

Ronnie Barber, that only 240 interception 27 guys, one of them just got inducted Charles Woodson last year so why think he's getting his shot.

They like Lord Butler, who doesn't have the numbers wrong data while selecting the right time. I think I think Ron day will ultimately get in that one will I know that doesn't mean it holds weight. I think you'll ultimately get in but I understand what you're saying, you know, yeah. I mean, I hope so.

I mean, John Lynch got him and Ron day that works so the guys that change the game on the no doubt about it and I appreciate you. Thank you Travis. You know problem we got here. Alex's calls in South Carolina. Go ahead Alex, it's going, what's on your mind ma'am big Mama Spaniard out college about what you thought about them Donald versus Baker Mayfield Manning week we found Baker Mayfield for picking him to try to figure out how it will be this year with him versus Sandra Sam Donald is going to be holding a clipboard any day. But now I'm with you man but a man with bakery you think there's any chance of a couple more where there may think.

I feel like they're about the same quarterback Dennis began in nine had really had really performed any better Baker and much better with brown night they met with the Jets will know that's not that's that's inaccurate. Sam Donald was a disaster. Unfortunately with the New York Jets are part of that is Sam Donald's full.

The other part is it the New York Jets fall and to say that him and Sam Donald Baker Mayfield and Sam Donald have the same amount of success with their former teams is is not true Baker Mayfield was able to go on a stretch. At one .2 seasons ago where he was one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL flat. Sam Donald with the New York Jets had to deal with injuries yet to deal with a bad scene. He also had to go out there and just throw the ball away. There was never any confidence in him. And so Baker Mayfield have flashes whether it was his rookie season, which was actually pretty good, or two seasons ago where they went to the playoffs where Baker had success. It's just a matter of whether or not Baker can have sustainable success.

People look at his his coaches that he had to play for the systems that he had to play in their Lotta elements, but to say that Baker and Sam were were kinda similar no man, not by any stretch of the imagination.

It was worth the trade like you worked and trained for Sam Donald or do you think it was a no that was know that was no it was not. I mean it. It's called the failure you don't you don't trade for Sam Donald last off-season and grabbed him. Baker or Outlook will meet I'll answer both. It's obviously it's a it's a dog it's a loss.

Sam, Donald, you traded for him and now you you bring in another QB. Yeah, that's an L in the case of Baker Mayfield. This is the last stand. Matt Ruhl did an interview today and thank you Alex McCall from South Carolina. Matt Ruhl did an interview today. He is getting yelled at by the fans in the background is a guy in the back audible. You can hear its audible fire Matt Ruhl fired Matt Ruhl.

It was so loud that he had to acknowledge that he was getting yelled that this is the last stand for him. He has to do something you can't run around out there with Sam Donald as your starter and so.

Thus, as a result they traded for Baker's the best option available will review what I do say give me Jimmy garrotte below is a hard knock life out here. Things get tough.

Robbie is calling from Phoenix your CBSSports radio what's up Robbie morning I love you show I like to talk about khakis and the Yankees on a separate key. Funny how the MOV now is so hypocritical with steroids with anything when steroids take baseball back and the day. Don't you find out a little hypocritical but let's get that that story. Yes, I agree with you but that story is so old now at this point that it's politically supposed to do.

I can't. I can go back to 1998 and fix it. You know know I understand. But here's the thing.

Delete batting average. Select 231 hi low status during the long time.

Yes, right. Some of the players I would mind if they took something that they can gain better yeah well I think that I think the answer is no. There because one of the problems with baseball right now is that there is no middle ground. It's like older nothing.

You had no homeowner you striking out so I will think put in bodybuilders and in musclebound steroid freaks out into the baseball field is going to make a difference from the, the entertainment value.

Now I understand that you're right.

I just find it skilled so yeah the critical and him and that my next point.

Alan boots guy gets fired after tonight there was no way home. Not even that any two 1011 pitches perfectly. He should be right back out there or are you going to want to impose more of the war's managers have ever seen, and my lifetime or or Chapman could have been placed right back into the closer's role back in the ninth-inning note, now that he's gone on at least a nice week week and 1/2 stretch year where he's not complete trash right now swept try rebooting Sunday night. Say bye-bye you had three years.

Are you preparing are you referring to the series this weekend against the Sox yes so you want to file your you want to fire Allen Boone while the New York Yankees still have one of the best records in baseball there on a streak right now. I think they've lost eight of nine you want to fire him like just right before the playoffs and then elevate you why they won't win a championship where this guy never, ever forever. Forever. Well win a championship up Robbie am glad that you don't run a franchise because he probably running right into the ground by man, but he's not making good decisions. Would you agree that cigarette he stated that he/she will not agree there to say that you want to fire the man on August I don't know well 15th.

This is just a complete disaster.

In this you know what I'll do. And thank you Robbie for calling out from Phoenix to leave the phone lines open. That's 855-2124 CPS. This 855-2124 CBS as we get regular rollout with the remainder of this hour to take more your calls you whether you want to talk to me about how to teach junior you want to call me about DeShawn Watson. You want to talk to me about with the onset about the Hall of Fame I'm to get some more of your calls and on the other side to answer more Robbie's question what the hell you want to fire a guy team is one of the best records.

It's basically on a on a run to the playoffs like what he what we doing here is the JR sport preshow here with you Friday night, Saturday morning, CBSSports radio you are listening to the JR sport brief on CBSSports radio listening to the JR sport brief on CBSSports radio show almost every night, at least for a little bit of time you got mad and I said that again. You deserve a raise. Whoever needs to hear that. Get this audio out to him second time I'm called second on Coley now with 855-2124 CBS's the JR sport. Preshow your CBSSports radio much loved everybody listen here Friday night, Saturday morning getting ready for the weekend making that money on the road. Whatever the hell you doing I am glad that you are here. Hope you save. Hope you well hope that you have in a good start here to the weekend. Whatever the hell that you're getting into 855-2124 CBS. We talked about a lot tonight Fernando type teach junior with going into the process of DeShawn Watson played his first game for the Cleveland Browns tonight, albeit a preseason game. One of five no big deal took place down in Jacksonville. We had a great conversation with Jesse Armistead, former New York Giants legend talked about Lamar Jackson in his contract and is to be oh so much that takes place over the next several weeks as the NFL season gets closer to a regular-season return.

One of things we also discussed are some recent comments made by Deion Sanders basically said the Hall of Fame is letting everybody and their mother ran some tickets more your calls but I do want to address one of our callers right before the break man basically said Yankees need to fire Allen Boone on Sunday if the Yankees get swept by the Boston Red Sox I'm saying to myself, will damn what type of that. That's a dumb ass decision.

That's something that I guess yeah and would say, but what type of message would this send to the New York Yankees clubhouse. What type of message with this do for morale and your morale is bad when you've lost 8/9 games. Morale is bad when you go up to a month with things that stunk guys are injured and players are not performing at their peak. Things already stink.

Just don't make quick decisions by firing the manager 14 that is 170 games that be bad. Sure, if you want to make the argument of Allen Boone is a terrible manager and why did he do this and why is this picture. Pitching here is a post at this time. All valid which you become a clown show when you just just do ridiculous things. I know George Steinbrenner is no longer here. I know George Steinbrenner is no longer running the New York Yankees's son. How is Joel fire somebody at this point in the season and you can have the reason well the New York Yankees are not going to win anything solid just fire the coach know father manager. No, don't work that way, which you going to do is become a laughing stock of a joke going to kill the locker room to kill the by have some consistency here Yankees have multiple problems right now. Some of the issues that you looked at parts of the season. It's taken months, but they rearing ahead starting rotation depth, they don't then I gonna match up well with a lot of teens in a postseason in the bats a cold right now.

Having guys who can go base the basin and drive in runs. The New York Yankees offense looks like all or nothing in our judge doesn't have help right now.

So what are we to do Delphi anybody now when it's all damn off-season 855-2124 CBS 855-2124 CBS Allen is here from Toronto.

Go ahead. Allen) great hero. The Hall of Fame all their own.

Lonergan at work. I made a running start. Start letting your ordinary start coming in Cooperstown and Springfield internally after Hall of Fame assurance, you know they have to attract implants that they were attractive people for our big weekend start putting people in your pocket as he was that he was eligible for 60 years and 20 leader was there a borderline Hall of Famer to make men because I starting to run out of other players in the present day enters reminder cursor on the curator. Once there once they're gone To start the start Troutman heartburn drug that are not know if they keep it up there. There can be an event either going to be gone when you're in a look.

Start there was a couple of years that 1996 and 2014, there were no players got into the Hall of Fame, and a snake had bring in some veteran players. Like Margaret, but that's what happened here. They're running out of starting starting superstar should be in the Hall of Fame and I checked it to have a fear of the bondsman.

Clemens and Wells are not and I agreed to get a there likely available that there likely to go in with these new committees that allow players and and so it's it's gonna be a long run they won't get voted in via the riders there likely to go in with the committee is a committee of of older players who votes in guys who did not make it in from like I guess this is part of the fairness aspect. If the riders and I can about you Lynn at least the last stand in major league baseball. The baseball Hall of Fame is to get voted in by the players guys who actually went out there and bust ass colas: from Nebraska your CBSSports radio hey JR how going good. Talk about Yankee black color fire and not that's not the case. We need to fire Brian Cashman got four or five guys in the AAA's right now that cannot be brought up because Yankees are worried about option for their next year like we got a lot of pride and 15 homeruns at shortstop and her current shortstop here, Mark Schmidt just went perfect inning in AAA you can get brought out because the money for all the as an option where he can't get cut so that they initiate. It's not Aaron Boone and Brian Cashman. The front office.

Wells is a little bit of blame and thank you" in Nebraska. This is a little bit of blame to pass along with with every body when it comes to the New York Yankees examined Boone the greatest of managers. The answer is no.

And when you take a look at Brian Cashman.

He has he has a hard is it difficult difficult backdrop to live up to, because when he was a young member of the New York Yankees organization they were doing something that will probably never be replicated probably in most of our lifetimes, the New York Yankees rolled out of bed in the late 90s, early to thousands and I just went to the World Series and they want that's unlikely to happen. New York Yankees last won a championship in 2009 okay I get it. It's 2022, but one thing that has been for certain.

This is also an anomaly.

This is why to a big degree.

A lot of Yankee fans.

It's not a bad thing, but they've been spoiled year after year after year the New York Yankees have a winning record. The New York Yankees have not completely gone into the toilet.

They haven't tanked even in years where you don't say oh my God there there World Series favorites that I went out there and he winning 85 to 90 games and that's like a bad here for the New York Yankees and people want to fire every body. It's not a birthright at all for the New York Yankees to just compete for championship that might be the standard Brian Cashman you want to get rid of them shall find who you want to misplace. That's a question I ask all the time. If you don't want Brian Cashman who you want to replace people don't come through with names for me will say say somebody else some young hotshot okay will Brian Cashman is like furniture with the New York Yankees.

He's been around for so long use to you comfortable you going to storm out and bring in a new one. His contract is expiring Yankees do have some work to do about firing every body isn't always the easiest answer but see this way sometimes you don't know what you got till was gone. There's a whole song about that as well is the JR sport. We show here with you on CBSSports radio will take a break to come back.

It's more your calls. I want to tell you about trade in the NBA that just makes me shake my damn head and able to roll out you were listening to the JR sport brief on CBSSports radio you listening to the JR sport brief on CBSSports radio show almost every night, at least for a little bit of time and again, you deserve a raise. Whoever needs to hear that.

Get this audio up to him second time I'm called cooling now with each line 52124 CBS is the JR sport refill CBSSports radio to get ready to rollout the also awesome Ryan to come in and take over at the top of the hour, but before I get out here like it's more your calls and I did tell you I was going to mention a trade Kevin Durant still hasn't been traded yet we know every week is something new. Yet we know this Tommy Sam find this guy. Father here. We know how ridiculous would it be also. By the way, the preferences of the Boston Celtics or the 76ers. At this point is that is that even fear if he goes to the Sixers gets back with James Harden, who at that point earlier this year.

He wasn't happy with because he decided to leave because Akai re-is it fair for him to be within beat is that even possible not to put any more realistic stock into any of these potential super teams because when do they play the Los Angeles Clippers been running around all day. They go because you got Kawai Leonard and Paul George what it wanted a play. I just picked up John wall.

When do they play Los Angeles Lakers man. You have a Lebron and Anthony Davis will do they play in salt look, I find it real far-fetched that Kevin Durant plays on a team with Harden and indeed, and even if they are all on the same team. What are they gonna play somebody will get hurt so money will be broken and they will play what we just saw this in Brooklyn. Who would've thought a team with Kari Irving James Harding Kevin rent don't win anything.

When did they play some your calls before we have to rollout a 552124 CBS microscope from San Diego hey JR, I hear there's a rumor about you got going on down here 10 years ago while is that the guy had art.

I heard a guy had ringworm and then the next, and I can baseball in the port taking a blown out right now but it's just like importing another little kink in his armor right now if we didn't get this auto trade with Brandon and Josh Bell. I think we would be toast. But right now Manny taken over the team basically end and things are looking good, but I want to call the allies.

I'm curious where Bales was feeling a ladylike chain like the Padres are done and and you know if you're still a chance that, but my best punishment for cut piece Mr. good to you is for the team to get a ring you know and and get through all this torment and I don't think we are realistically but we have we have a good chance I think I would be the best punishment and maybe that would get his head on straight. What equally think about the last. The best punishment would be for the Padres to win a championship for him to see that not be able to participate as witches and get the ring and having severe is choice of whatever you want to collect unknowledgeable by me well and I think that you are shooting at no I think his punishment is, is this embarrassing situation. I think his punishment is not being paid for 80 games and then, being slapped around and the public for the next several years. I mean distinct quotable quote is not gonna go off and him I'd say for about the season or to and yet I still think the Padres have a decent chance or shot.

I'm not going to exclude them from legitimate consensual because think they have some solid starters, they do have offense of weapons and will see what happens. We know who the top teams are of the New York Mets on the role the Dodgers on a roll up trailer has gone for the world will the bullpen hold up is is a different question, but Fernando taxis being out it's it's disastrous and I will hope that all of these issues that he's had to deal with over the past year from the bike to his injuries and now this this ridiculous suspension. That's his fault. I hope that between now and age 35, where he will be under contract that he'll get his life together, man is kind of crazy. You think out of all the people that have been offended. Do you think their career, young can like Boris or you think it like a goat you know, get them out of town somehow or you think they say fight through it and if it all dwelling for him without me trying to think about everyone who's been suspended. I feel a lot of these dudes are are are older thank you Mike call from San Diego. Someone who comes to my most recent Mrs. Robinson can no, he was closer to the end of his career. Dammit he is at the end of his career he still get paid major money. He can barely battle over 150. At this point in time in his career took a disastrous start in all honesty, I'd be more concerned about Fernando taxis Junior and his health. Then, the less his reputation. We see what he can do when he's on the field. He's a legitimate 4040 threat he has Hall of Fame potential.

We seen it in the short amount of time that he's been in the Biggs I'm more concerned with the shoulders more consult concerned with his body holding up. I hope we can do Alex's working here with us tonight. In addition to Dave Sheppard. Alex you have any thoughts on the southeast, Junior and his suspension.

Well, I mean it was a bit of a shock.

I thought the Padres could be a dark horse but yeah I mean night I saw some Instagram post as mom's mom gave that where he was like back and she was backing them up. Something like that.

Yeah well, what about his mom, grandma like that.he should be suspended if it was it was it was very vague but okay. I recently I just think when I first saw it.went with Todd. He's all this hype coming back from his injury and in this and in the suspension and now the Padres sort of our local wait till next year well and I look under the team certainly isn't taking a wait until next year approached his is no and if so butts about his suspension. It's just the only were the key word here is is sad and embarrassing you hear Fernando Tutty's Junior and the first thing is PED's you get that buzzword out there and say suspension of people God, my God, he's been using and then you assume that he was using something to come back from his wrist injury, and then his explanation is smart, ringworm, medication, and had of the substance in it that was banned and it's my fault and so look you. You do the crime you gotta do the time.

That's just how it goes. Chris is calling for Marilyn your CBSSports radio Friday crackdown the steroid guys that where none of them should be an Alabama dammit today Don just a handout that is what's going on there and judge Rigby talk more about him and are not calling about right now, John will hold on you making a point about what about our judge. We would be talking about him taking down Roger Marist everyone for the steroid era guys and Commissioner and all the other players at all where they go way way way because we that's the damage they did the baseball correct. I will agree what's the point. My company called me for Super Bowl XIII Manuel Newman on the play that I don't keep up but not the 91 David consider one of the best of all time. Mark up and got seven times the entire Joe Jacoby moved to right tackle that particular year because we got Jim LaFave and the Raiders seven times all year. The only other login, no Hall of Fame is less grim. Yes.

And so I just I know you you get me a maybe or possibly under article 4 of you could do that are going to give them a little, not knowledge.

I don't know, but you gotta take voice out now. Don't hold it against us that we be no well lot. Why would I care that we made the dirty bird you know you love about you and land that you did like them. So I'm in I'm in Atlanta so I have to like them and I didn't know what you just say to somebody and I like that now talking to listen, Melanie, Tyson, Chris, you know how many professional sports teams are giving me money, pay my bills all live album, yet not have any favorite yeah guy I know and you know I like how I like the Falcons are like the Jets but I'll tell you this month my fandom is is this not the same man you know I now being in your profession I am in you when you I don't give a damn. I'd like I'd like it if they gave me money, but they they don't so I don't give a damn. A root form but it's it's not the same. It's like when you when you work in it and you deal with people and you know some of the players in. It's just just different amino care my own New York Jets will Falcons not use them doing anything. I like the Yankees to what I do okay thanks think they win a good that bad. I'm just going to call it how it is man.

As always, thank you guys so much for an amazing week. The general sport re-show your CBSSports radio it's a wrap. Thank you, Dave Scheffer, thank you Alex, thank you to you every person listening Mobile WFAN in New York City tomorrow. I'll be back with you CBSSports radio next week. Don't move Brian Hickey he's coming up next. I like him a lot
