Rich reacts to DK Metcalf’s absence from the Seahawks’ mandatory minicamp and debates which teams would be most interested in trading for the disgruntled wide receiver (ahem, Dallas Cowboys). 

ESPN NBA Insider Brian Windhorst tells Rich why Boston turnovers will be the key to Game 4 between the Warrior and Celtics, why Pat Riley and the Miami Heat will be on the hunt to add another star player to their roster this offseason, why the Lakers are unlikely to contend for a title unless they revamp their roster, and says what could be in store for the Nets Kyrie Irving, the 76ers James Harden, the Wizards’ Bradley Beal, and why the once-promising Utah Jazz are heading in the wrong direction. 

Rich and Brockman preview the Celtics-Warriors Game 4 and debate if controversial referee Scott Foster on the game is a good or bad thing for Boston.

Rich reacts to the latest New York Times report on embattled Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson.

Game three in Boston testify snouts not best-of-five.

Boston six.

Some blood game one for the Boston Celtics to win every game recorded TV garden as Michael check with our third our guests and he told his daughter asked him about radar baggies like honey.

The Windy City, they burned his knees and earned his name in the pack mentality said it burned his name in a parquet floor. Get some heat, which Nicholas will get that weight back later. Oh no. Also something to talk about later on today is the live golf to rights not L IV right live online and calling it live. Do we know that. Can I live that's what I don't know. I think that the thing I know, that's 54 now as a got 48 players right 48 players or teams of 12 and a draft yesterday, live draft, I didn't know guys miss that dude Ari Fleischer on that to I'm clear that no man okay did know that everybody focus is still yes I did. I didn't races about the weird tingling. Krista still talk about golf with me didn't go yesterday.

So Kevin Van Falkenberg is been covering this for ESPN. He will be on this program.

First up is going to be prime when Horst about leaving him it's time talking about all of that and in the NBA finals he be calling from Boston.

My culture was used to be on Luke Teijin/Tiny on this program. He's now one of the stars of evil on Paramount. Plus he's a warrior fan you'll be in studio number three will preview a little bit a basketball with him out of prayer is can be first up joining us in about an hours time. He's gonna kick off our number two with all the football stories going on here in the NFL and that we get together just never know actually conversation you know Michigan and Ohio State.

I got at least what five more months of the good times living my life and I'm just letting all those were listening and watching and not can't know how I'll be there in August will. If you have anyone come against so we'll talk out about every mandatory minicamps of pollution and whose there was not this conversations with theirs was and same of this is whose there was not a moment talk about the guys were here say the coaches only talk about the guys were not here says the media and check were not coaches. So, guess who's not in mandatory minicamps in Seattle DJ Metcalf were all we're all looking deep right we spent the predraft looking at T-bone Ajay Brown right because depot asked for trade Ajay Brown was not happy either. He wanted a contract and the Titans treated him on draft multilevel recorder out. Although the quarterbacks that you want their money and rethinking like a traded or wide receivers.

One of their money and think it might get traded.

It was Ajay Brown. He's now in Philadelphia in Philadelphia pay him part of reason why they could pay him is because they had a contract available to give him the amount of money he wanted because they have a quarterback on his first rookie deal. That's we were told paint recently to Brown and raised her hands and will take him in Philadelphia reason why didn't Pam out in Tennessee is because Tennessee has a quarterback and right channel not on this first rookie deal, but they did draft rookie anyway will keep our eyes on that as conditions warrant were focused on DJ Metcalf now because depot is in camp holding in apparently not wholly outshone up can get final marriages here so I will get fine.

He's got more Sean Lynch because all he's care about right now is chicken, steak dear Ms. chicken and he showed up they won't get fined and will hit on that lawyer. Later on, but DK's not there. What's up with that DK not there. Now you have foot surgery even if he was there he practice right numbing is take care that foot, so why not show up, knowing that your not there practice anywhere you can't have that medical excuse wise, neither great question. I don't know the reason will have an outbreak on the program and that just leaves me to believe this because of that the Seahawks don't have a quarterback on her long term big fat deal anymore. They traded him away to Denver did by the way the Broncos have new ownership. If they do, and it's the Walton family and I'm not talking about John boy from seven thank you for laughing at that.

I've dated myself with that rep.

Mark, thank you brother has no idea were talking about what was so where you know what's up with that.

One of the Seahawks hold off on paying DK are they.

Is there something up with great questions all around so let's stirred up a little bit here where could DK go who's going to call John Schneider right now and offer something that he cannot refuse. I've got a team to do it now.

Love oh we DK Metcalf would improve the chances of any team winning and I could see her rescue sleep right away so I mean it raises thing down to the ground than I could do much winning this thing out of the ground and they swear that they're not repeats not sticking around still coaching you know to raise this thing down. The brownies always compete in in May they can maybe stick around and hang in there to see if Baker tops three Jimmy G and his surgically repaired shoulder pops free, but that doesn't really help us for this mode of conversation. I've got a team and you can't were not to sit here and say the bills obviously right rocket sit here and see the Chiefs or any other team in the AFC red Ramsey seat on yesterday is room for more and more will figure it out over a rock to keep drafting young kids so we can afford the big contracts and afford the first and second round picks to BF. Which team do you think could use a big time physical wide receiver on the outside.

That would make a significant difference to their team. Especially since they took their last couple years. Number one wide receiver incentive package which team used to have a very physical presence outside the numbers going up top and on occasion he would catch it and while bringing in.

He would take a couple of massive large steps because he was a big physical human being and gain about 10 yards on the play after the catch. He's going down to the ground, which then would cause the ball to come loose and back in the day. That rule that's currently on the books wasn't in that was not a catch which team is been raising his hand in my peripheral I just seconds before before you when you got: I thought you were talking about the team what he's going to say was playing that day Green Bay getting DK Metcalf for Arun Rogers would be spectacular. I'm going to admit something when you first started that that's where I was as bad as you would like away. Second, because I'm trying to be realistic here that would be totally out of character for that I thought the three were going to get the actual Green Bay Packers do not do that sort of maneuvering with future pics and things that nature. Although they do have a quarterback now, with the remaining window and Roger spoke yesterday about having that window being there in Green Bay and that would be a nice maneuver to do but I am talk about the Dallas Cowboys, who as you know, in my top five storylines and things about the 2022 seasons I have talked myself into quite a bit with the governor's race isn't all right sit down to take a step back. Dallas is taken a step back and Philadelphia with the affirmation Ajay Brown could take it right past him and that diamond HOV lane of the NFC's entirely possible Dallas should be on the phone to Seattle right now how huge we DK Metcalf, the with the star beside his helmet will easily huge growth is how huge I will. And I do really appreciate your deflection and I do appreciate his star ability to make himself a figurative star wherever he goes. But the star inside of that helmet Thanksgiving days, Monday nights, Sunday nights.K Metcalf, Dallas Cowboys is exactly the play that Jerry Jones would make exactly the play that Jerry Jones is built to make exactly the play. The Dallas Cowboys used to do before Jerry started getting people with a little bit more a long-term approach talking.

This is exactly the sort of stuff.

He's the one who went and traded for Mark Cooper, gave up those pics. He's the one that has made maneuvers just like this. Jerry says that he wants to win, while he can as we all know he said that he told the good Lord before that when he met third Super Bowl that if you want that one.

He would mask for another, and he wants to now redo that negotiation redo that deal. This is the deal to help renegotiate that deal if it can be made do it call a mop get debt DK for DAC, DAC to DK you know it's built for everything DK had DAC. The only thing missing in DK is the DAC right the a game. Are you picking up one of them put down so is TJ. I got a pair of brand-new Jordans on right now and I'm picking them up and put down rich. How do we contact Holly make that first round pick right may picking like the first round pick, but that's a pick in the 20s to see Dragon sorry Hankin do you think that that something thing or its 32nd overall because Dallas can actually do it with him right.

Since you think that they can win the Super Bowl. DAC DK CDC date DAC DK CD Gallup Zeke Pollard and on the other side of Mike right and paint. Mr. Diggs digs so I'm just saying DK Dallas takes my narrative that they taken a step back braces.

It now on talk now I'm talking myself into thinking that there that's an upgrade on Amari Cooper about that. The way you think rich that this is the stuff that Jerry used to do math. I just got a phone call from Dallas under fixture 214 here once redo that deal while I did I really did not think of it like that Dallas first thing I thought of when I heard DK's not there like Dallas should be on the phone right now but we do what can we do will interested in alchemy for how the hell is Los Angeles the right cosmos need to got to scratch those errors are you having a good day and you just me sometimes and sometimes you don't stand Crockett walks in fresh chopped fresh out of his Maibach on earth what he draws right he's being driven. Jerry Jerry looks at expect some stats and I know your rich stamp.

You know what I'm Texas rich all rich on cowboy rich you know what assistant coaches come here and stay here because they know I'm a vent, eventually, her fire my head-coaching they can come in here to that's Jerry Jones goal Jerry Jones gone the phone Seattle and making that deal right now. Watch DK shows up today anyway but I'll say this, it would holler off and running. On this program.

Let's take a break Brian when Horst will join us at sterno started face the NBA finals game three tonight. Quinn Snyder also as we know is left his post in Utah what's going on there.

And speaking of the Celtics and Danny Ainge is now the manager can return to shop for a new head coach. There what is, what can you tell us about the Lakers scenario that's unfolding just down the street from our right here in El Segundo, California will take a break.

Is Brian. When Horst and then you would 844302 overreach throughout the day. Don't go anywhere were often running on this Wednesday, back here in the rich eyes enjoyed for 42 overreach number to dial love talking to this guy. He makes me smarter and I just want love watching them on the worldwide leader in sports and him being on this program. I follow him on Twitter is a must follow a must listen.

Certainly in advance of the game three that is tipping off tonight at midnight right at the tips offered price just to keep pushing it back. I'm sorry the 9 o'clock Eastern time so that the home folks will be well oiled for tipoff tonight. The NBA finals in Boston between the warriors in the Celtics that's on ABC. Our friend from the worldwide leader in sports.

Brian went horseback here on the Mercedes-Benz ranch phone line item. Brian then came.

I selected my live golf.

Nice guys out is okay did not know that deep. Did you plan Brian learn to get out there to play, never to play with you, your all-black. I just want to play and I want to have fun and I just want to get out like it. I just want to get through it. Brian, I just want to get through it and I come out when I got going to play golf to look at the trees and some is why Micah golf you know and just and just you know and and just enjoy the quiet right I like to hear the birds chirp. I don't need to hear the birds on your radio.

You know what I'm saying right and old-school music reference. Okay, let's let's just jump right into it.

What is the main storyline for tonight's game three in your estimation Brian.

When worst everybody talking about her by talking about the technical file but that's me. I don't even think you need to look at the core of the game as a game is going on.

I tried to lobby our our fine producer that the television network here to have a running tally of Celtics turnover because the only thing that really is going to the barometer of whether the Celtics win or lose the game. If there turnover. If this post even when they turn over 15 times or less. There 13 into when they turn it over over 15 times her own five. That's what happened in game two. I don't care about dream on green yell, fake, shoving somebody during at that ball stuff Curry was good. You know he at 53.

He averages 4 1/2 three. The game in his playoff career he slightly above average. The warrior scored 107 point game to and they got 33 points off of the felt external to the second most in the last 25 years and paternal the Celtics make our mindnumbing fate just throw the ball the other team.

It is happened throughout the play off the tap and like to have time to theory. While that to me is the storyline. I know it's not funny talking about somebody body. He also found a technical file but that is what's really going on. It is the that's the it's the honest truth. No question about it. So you know it the stump sure the coaching staff of the Celtics know what how to they rectified meaning or it just is what it is. It's just if it's part of their team's DNA and they just hope it doesn't pop up on the water. You do why don't your children clean their rooms. Stopping for six weeks now and I think their championship team.

I mean I future the warrior and you know about it like that hasn't even really, he's been even good. He hasn't been great. If that is great tonight, or another game in this. He will he will single-handedly beat that he has about eight or nine three-point game which obviously you capable of doing, he'll beat them but stepping even though his numbers are good.

You just did okay yet one incredible quarter in game one, that he's just staff that the game is been determined by whether or not be the Celtics hand the ball away and they did this in against the box. They did this against the heat and you know so to me the Celtics won a play straight up half-court defense. There really hard to be almost impossible to beat. They haven't been able to consistently able to win when they played straight up half-court defense up.

You know, and ball away so me that if it if faith and paid about going there and try to throw 500 mile an hour passed to a guy getting 4 feet from them.

Kaylyn Brown doesn't lose the ball on the dribble, which is literally happened about 25 times the last three weeks. II just don't know why he is such a weak dribbler in traffic, but he is and he keeps dribbling into traffic. It kinda mindnumbing to watch it not what is really probably good to be a factor for the rest the games of the theory and so the warriors clean up what they say has something to clean up what is that the warriors are not getting production from anybody other than stuff and while it was fun to watch and Jordan Poole hit the shop in the third quarter.

The something interesting happened to that the warrior stopped running there often they stop there motion offense where everybody is running around in circles and the ball moved to six different players on the local shot created because Andrew Wigginton Clay Thompson and even Jordan Poole, you know, certain extent, getting shot for a long time.

No claim was for 19 game to and so they relied on straight stuff Curry pick and roll a very basic play that would be very difficult. And you know he made from three then was able to get downhill into the lane and stuff and Celtics just didn't defendant that well, but they abandoned the rest are often and I don't think that's gonna work over the long haul.

Again, they don't get those turnovers they don't win that game. I know that's what nobody wants to say that everybody said no. The war is a great fear kicking tail. I'm telling you in straight half-court often they were just okay so they got to get back splash brothers getting it done in that claimant have to score 35 is gotta be a weapon that they can run their offense and have the Celtics respect them as they move the ball around Brian when worst year on the rich doesn't show getting set for game three on ABC tonight at nine Eastern time. Let's talk about the aftermath of some teams that have already been eliminated. The Miami Heat Pat Riley at a press conference saying he has no intention of giving up the reins that he's still enthusiastic invigorated and issued a challenge to some of the players on the roster to play better in a hero and Larry all that said. Does that mean they're planning on just running it back or can they make a big splash coming up in July.

What Yankees he's planning their Miami Mike Honig Pat Riley quote a press conference and are almost always good to be eaten anything like I was. Importantly flying from coast-to-coast or not. Otherwise, I would been pulled up with a bowl of popcorn he always is amazing. I don't think people are expecting this iconic Riley quote he was asked by the media exactly what you just that which is can you run it back with this team next year and Pat said why not I run it back with my wife every week to pick.

I know failure of American media that that is not being assigned the proper credit will on top that for me what is it what what what is that mean blind when it means you got a wonderful marriage. Pat Riley always always always hunt star players right and in fact I would argue that couple years ago. We can, you know, in the wake of Lebron leaving and Dwayne Wade leaving it a momentary lapse. We started giving it a sort of above average players huge contract like the young waiter James Johnston and Tyler Johnson and the heat went into a little bit of a tailspin, and then each. He shook out of sense that periodic situation in and leave you know got refocused and got Jimmy Butler and I got Kyle Lowery and making update have been mad about they will hunt whoever become available, and so we figure 2 that your next question who's available. Somebody will becoming available whether it happened the next two weeks.

The weather happened six months. Pat Riley will always hunt star. You will want to be in Miami and have a good team and have good pieces and they made a little trade that probably nobody likes you more deeply within the MBA even remembers that they made a little trade right before the deadline buzzer to trade that line with Oklahoma for the thunder that freed them up to trade some graphics they work. They couldn't trade draft picks under arcane rules that I won't go into right now, but they make little teeny deal with the thunder that freed up their ability to trade some pics going forward. So in addition to having some good guys on their on their team. They can trade.

They also have graphics that they can trade now and so I think they will be hunters. I do not think they will be satisfied with running it back will see what opportunities may open themselves in the next couple of months so well I'll just be completely silly here. The retweet that JoEllen beat centering game seven when some text. Be thinking right, that's the oil and be rich to give you a clean look for JoEllen beat Twitter handle so well troll don't don't pay attention to stuff the JoEllen beat up stuff like that know that's not meant nothing to do with what okay so could you be referring to its star player that's on somebody else's team right now that were not thinking of that Miami is I would say that he will be opportunistic and I'm not sure it happened in the next couple of months it could happen any year but if you're happy with Pat Riley's goal is I think Pat Riley note is probably not a championship team that he needs another big and what he was expressing was that he's going to stay on the hunt so that you're happy about the heat. I would say they have something they can do to make things interesting.

Let's just see how it plays out.

You know, I would say the next 9 to 12 months. So then Riley would actually agree with troll control LMD's tweets that Miami star Lily was being honest, I believe, like I doubt he would fit okay Brian when worst year in the rich eyes and show how do you think Lebron is thinking of the future here because it sure sounded like driving him was giving the indication they are run in the back and Lebron said if we want to back him are all healthy. The we obviously being Anthony Davis and Russ will be much better. Do you think that's actually the case for the Lakers right now after Ham's press conference which was also fascinating with Russell Westbrook standing there watching it brought out, you know, keep in mind the 11 in the West last year. So if are far borrowed. We can improve. I think that that is accomplishable and they improved to being a cop, seven or 816 I don't know about that are complicated.

There put together right now. You look around the West and you look at the teams that you know ahead of them is by locking the head of them there going back sliding and you know so I mean I think they absolutely can be better if the healthier. Of course they were completely decimated by injuries here. Course I expect them to be better but I don't. Contender in the short term and to me, you know about Lebron in August because the Philistine mayor their off-season by then, and that he has one year on his contract.

He 37 and I believe in/assume I have. I don't know this for 100% sure but I'm I believe the Lakers will offer him a contract extension in August and he can he can extend for up to two years rules on players who are that age about how long they can extend for three can extend up to two years in 100 million and Lakers offered you know will you find it, you know that's the question I want to see how it developed but I know Darvin hammock doing his press conference I believe was just sort of setting a standard for what he wanted Russell Westbrook to do and want to think would happen rich with at the end of the season in a press conference so I thought with unbelievable friction out of touch. Westbrook blamed the coaching staff and the organization for his failure during the unit.

His role wasn't spelled out in and let you know immediately when given a chance and so Darvin hammock came in and is first-order business was to explain exactly what he expect the Russell Westbrook and so now Russell has heard it in June.

Three months before the next event and so he knows what you like doing the play excellent defense and sacrifice. That way if he doesn't do that then they can reduce his playing time will bench him or whatever and he really can't complain about it, but the reason that he saying that if the answer Westbrook and also because they know that today it up. I don't play next season games today they play them in months and today the Lakers don't have a trade that makes sense for them Westbrook so they have to prepare IQ can be if they had a trade they would execute. But the reality is that there probably could have Westbrook's that's later Darvin is approaching. I do not think he is implying that you can sprinkle some sort of gameplay and ferry.and all the sudden muscle Westbrook is going to be an MVP caliber player again. I don't think anybody looks at the game on a high level believe that I have a lot of respect for Darvin and my couple of minutes remaining with you Brian when Horst let's finish up the way we started where you said a this is what people need to be talking about about game three and notice talk about it. I.e. the Celtics turnovers. So the upcoming off-season. What are we not talk about what should we be talking about what we missing is Zion is it what's might be going on in Portland with the sale of the team and Damien Lord what's on the radar screen for you that might not be for others that we should know next three weeks we have a couple of players who have very important with opt out from the contract, namely James Harden carrier so I would guess that there to pick up those options and bypass free agency but do they pick up those options with contract extension today pick up those options without contract extension. What happened to their teams. If there only on one your contract so they can approach that you know we just saw Sean Mark general manager of the net come out a press conference a couple weeks ago when basically say without saying that Tyree was can have a different level of accountability and he heard that. I'm sure now has to react to that by making a decision on contract so quite a few deficient other players like Brad Beal led an option is contract now.

The indications are all that Brad is going to know remain with the winter, but he has not picked up yet.

You know he is not worked out a contract yet. So I'm waiting to hear know when you hear who the top three agents are people are like oval Zach Levine and this guy and that guy nobody is saying Bradley Beal, Kylie Irving and James Harden. Let's wait till adoptions get picked up picked up that will take them off the board but my dignity on one your contract so they can be on for your contract that you know that's what no one talking about right now. Maybe drama maybe drama you talk from the wood spider Mitchell and Colbert and everything else that played there with Clint Snyder's departure needs to get smoothed over what happens in Utah. I think you know if Utah played in one of the big market.

This would be talking point on EFP and every single day.

There because the number one overall seed of my peers put up and then their team president is gone and in the next year the hypothetical coach is gone and they have to offer our players to have a contentious relationship and the team is going the wrong direction. And trust me there's a bunch of teams out there keeping a very close eye on how that goes. But you don't have to have incredible insight to did you do that that that that organization was with very strong, not too long ago is going in the wrong direction and the pieces on it could be very interesting to other people, starting with Clint Snyder, somebody will hire that guy coach in a short in the short in the short timeframe. Brian thinks the call appreciated my call again for draft for free agency during it all the time really appreciated Lovelock 16 a there okay very good LC is not grooving right behind you sounded a hurry to the call on when Horst everybody when Horst ESPN fantastic Brian.

When there is a great a great podcast as well. When everyone knows it's windy I just again he knows everything about it. He's not wrong about tonight is he Celtics turnovers. That said that that if they have the under another of the openings and if they have the underlay when they have the over the lives of over under his wrist, yet foster refereeing tonight was at me. Oh, what is it me all the time Scott Foster gets mentioned as the second time Scott Foster gets mentioned as being the referee. It's whatever you for your team who thinks that what ever will hurt your team is about to be exacted against your team with this man as the vessel you reading to me you read into his assignment.

Every last conspiracy theory that you we know today if you if you think your team is about to take a leg up and you think the league is against your team. Scott Foster is your man to be on the job. If you think that the league wants a series to go longer, to the detriment of your team. Scott Foster is the man that that's a sign. So what does Scott Foster's assignment tonight mean to you Chris.

Well Rich this season and Scott Foster officiated games, the Celtics are 12 and no all.

Oh okay this is for you as normally you mention his name like that it's a bad thing again but my culture and a show called evil is in our number three you would normally think that shows about Scott Foster being assigned to your game is any mention his name all the time just means you know if you are leaving gleaning a certain way since record warriors games could question. I'm not sure. Now I see could be one of those somethings gotta give moments Celtics are 12 and only calls like the waters are: 15 I can come on.

So what is a grub Laker fan Celtics fan again like it's it's how we want to read into the sky. This poor guy just try to do is John Doe no absolute*nine*guy Johnny not using the NBA official sonatas got a good singing voice and a sense of humor is a human rate these a person rate awesome.

Let's get Chris Paul think CAD fees assigned to lose you think if he's assigned more than one letter just like you left me to spell your really good rep spells in a far-off, thinking that gave let's go to Delaware County online thing that he said take a break when we come back here on the rich eyes and show all give my two cents on the New York Times report that came out yesterday we went off the air on DeShawn Watson don't go anywhere 844204 rich numbers all got your on our terrestrial radio show or been sitting around Peacock last couple minutes also on NBC Sports on Peacock Sirius XM channel 85 NBC Sports audio so arbors can join us in a moment the Cleveland Browns have been saying all week including today that they're just going to respect the process when it comes to DeShawn Watson. The issue is is at some point there and I have to account for what the process was for them, and how the process that's going on with an investigation of the league is conducting also includes more accusations. That's part of the process to and that includes an incredibly eye-opening and stomach turning report in the New York Times from yesterday, Jenny, Francis, she did some due diligence that clearly the Browns did not and went in through the depositions went through the depositions in her own reporting and it appears according New York Times that the Sean Watson employed not one, not 24 because that's just the 24 lawsuits that have been filed against him civilly based on his behavior in these massages, 66 different resources in 17 months, 66, many of them he found on Instagram, many of whom he direct messaged to contractor services and one of whom did not appreciate his advances and even put on social media. Some exchanges that the two of them and had and warned him I could destroy you, which led to a member of the Texan security staff, furnishing, and with an MBA and nondisclosure arrangements for him to give to the strangers who he's getting massages from including some that he would reach out to and this is the bizarre stuff again.

I don't understand why a big time athlete would need the services of 66 different individuals to work on the most important part of his career. His physical well-being and some of them wanting to do it within the hour. Chris, you be the person who I the one person in my life always works on the because that's what I would do one person who I'm I'm calling you up and I'm saying to you.

Hey, are you available for massage at 8 o'clock tonight. Check I can't do it is running on time tomorrow and the next half hour wait, what or if I'm desperate. I do reach out to the one person who's maybe because I make millions of dollars are contracted to work for me at any point. I need you. How does that conversation go here you free at 8 o'clock tonight on your employee. So yes, yes, why do you need to contact strangers through Instagram. What's up with and then the behavior that these women tell the New York Times and also told the depositions the behavior again the word I've been using the last couple of days. I haven't I haven't no Chris.

The thing is, man.

It is like you and I were talking earlier. It's become like a mental thing right now.

I've been so worried that I've been using the last couple of days is file the behavior that they're describing if you're going through, Instagram, and you're doing this. The only thing you can you can just by reading all this, the only word that you come up with this predatory. This must be accounted for. The process can no longer just to be respected if the respect was not paid to even reach out to an accused to find out what she's got to say before you give all of this money to the quarterback who does need to account for this in the court of public opinion if he's going to be allowed to play football.

These things must be rectified. This circle must be square, and time is running out because he shown up for work next week, will he not meet with the media we not answer these questions will the process be respected that these are absolutely questions that must be answered and addressed for a fan base that the team intends to place this quarterback in front of and ask them to root for him and for support that intends to ask the fan base to understand that this stuff cannot stand Ethan without an answer to 66 different people and what the NDA about an if the Texans did provide him with a space in a local club that he was using for these massages to take place in the day they pay for his room. I mean, this opens up a whole different avenue of conversations as part of the processes being respected upper prayer coming up in a moment. This has many more questions about it now, but not we had yesterday and the day before, which is why I'm discontinuing the talk about this in the manner in which I'm talking about when you read it and you're like, makes no sense at all.

Then the last part about it again based on on this story that included some details from the 24th lawsuit that came just the other day and the comment comes back from Watson's attorneys that they can't comment on on at the moment because there investigative team needs to look into this person whose name was unfamiliar to them until she file and then the last line is that Sean Watson remains says that he never did anything inappropriate with these women, the role-play, Chris ready, let's say I am accused in a lawsuit of the same stuff that the Sean Watson was accused of in the 24th lawsuit.

Okay Gordon asked me if I'd you know for comment on a rich white things coming out right now.

Would you care to comment on the situation you are you kidding me I would never do such a thing. Are you kidding me, you need to look into the window of my soul. Here it is. I would never do anything like that. Not well, we can't respond. This time we got a look into it. Look at what you said you didn't know. He said he never did any of the stuff that should be the top storyline. None of this makes sense, and I wanted so badly to work out for this guy who I believed in.

From the minute I spoke a word to him when he was in Clemson I so want to believe that that's the guy that guy is today, but you look at everything that this is this whole world that he was living in for 17 months and you've got to sit here for the Browns and see have you worked on this issue. DeShawn because you got an issue before we put you on the field and the league just got a put them on the commission's exempt list until this whole thing gets figured out the could be the 25th to 26.

Also, I don't know.

It's the end of this last time I talked about this for a while but is going to show up for work next week
