00:00This was a pretty big story today out of the NFL as well.
00:03I know Florio was a part of this and some others.
00:06And apparently an arbitrator found that the NFL encouraged teams to collude
00:11regarding reducing guaranteed contracts following the Deshaun Watson deal
00:16in March of 2022.
00:19So basically after the Browns gave Deshaun Watson that completely fully guaranteed contract,
00:25Roger Goodell and the lead went to owners in this meeting and said,
00:28please stop giving veterans guaranteed money.
00:32Let's please not do this.
00:34And this is now starting to make its way out into the public knowledge that the league has done this.
00:39Well, I mean, what is the difference between guaranteeing the whole thing
00:44or giving a guy like Hunter $30 million upfront guaranteed, fully guaranteed bonus day of signing?
00:54Signs the deal, they give him $30 million cash that day and he goes down the street with the money.
00:58Hopefully he doesn't get robbed on the way.
01:00What is the difference?
01:02There's no difference between giving a guy all the money or giving a guy that much money just to sign a contract.
01:08And I also find that word just smells like illegal to me, collusion.
01:15I don't like, you know what I mean?
01:16Like when they're all colluding together, to me, that is the beginning of the end, or it's like evil in some capacity.
01:24When they collude against people, when you get a bunch of, like, that's what they did to Colin Kaepernick, right?
01:31In not so many words, they colluded to keep him away from the NFL forever.
01:36Did they not?
01:37I mean, that's mic drop right there.
