00:00
So Jalen Ramsey was on the pivot with Channing Crowder,
00:04
Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor.
00:07
And he kind of opened up about the trade
00:13
and how the whole trade went down with the Dolphins.
00:17
And this is what he had to say on the whole situation,
00:21
on how the trade went down.
00:22
It was in the works for a little minute, I would say.
00:26
So you knew something else.
00:27
It was in the works, but things had to get put together the right way.
00:33
Things had to come together from my standpoint to the Dolphins, to the Steelers.
00:38
I think all of us had to come to a, I guess you could say agreement.
00:42
We all had to come to a consensus on what it would be.
00:46
I do appreciate the Dolphins and them working with me and David,
00:51
not just, hey, this team called and we're going to send you here and this and that.
00:56
It wasn't any of that.
00:58
It was very open communication with, yo, this is, you know, y'all been good to us.
01:04
I've been good to y'all.
01:05
Like, let's do it the right way.
01:07
Let's go to a team that's going to be able to compete.
01:10
Let's go to a team where there's a lot of respect for the head coach in there
01:13
and, you know, the staff, a place where I can continue developing,
01:18
playing at a high level, maybe be versatile.
01:20
And then, you know, I had to let David do his thing, too.
01:25
You know, the money was involved, so he did his thing with that.
01:29
And then, you know, obviously the Steelers, you know, they really wanted me here.
01:34
And, you know, at the end of the day, I wanted to be here as well.
01:36
So I just let the, it got to a certain point where I was like,
01:40
everything is good on my end.
01:41
Let's get the business handled.
01:43
Y'all do that part.
01:44
And y'all let me know when this will go.
01:46
So that kind of took a little, a little minute to get done.
01:49
But once that got done, it was, it was like, let's go.
01:54
There you go.
01:55
That was Jalen Ramsey on the pivot.
01:57
Your reaction.
01:58
Okay.
02:04
I was cool with everything.
02:08
But then he threw something out there that would indicate the real reason
02:14
why he wanted to be out.
02:16
Of Miami in the first place.
02:19
So while we sitting here talking about all these nice things and cute and
02:24
yeah, respectful and all that.
02:27
Why did you have to say, yeah, I want to go somewhere where they respect their
02:31
coach.
02:33
Right.
02:34
The head coach.
02:35
Yeah.
02:35
Which everybody does respect Mike Tomlin.
02:37
Oh, but, but that's not okay.
02:39
I get that.
02:40
But that's not a dig on Mike McDaniel and why the original situation presented
02:48
itself.
02:49
It's a pot shot.
02:50
Okay.
02:50
Okay.
02:50
It's a pot.
02:51
And the way you know me, I'm the one that always call you off of these things.
02:56
I, I honestly, I, I saw, and I know a lot of people noticed it and I, I'm sure it is a
03:02
pot shot.
03:02
I honestly didn't think I thought for Jalen Ramsey, I thought that was like, that was,
03:06
that was shadow boxing.
03:07
That wasn't even sparring.
03:08
Well, that's because you followed his whole career, you know, and he said some crazy things,
03:14
but if everything was Kumbaya and worked on together and, and everything, you didn't
03:22
have to throw that out there.
03:24
It didn't have to, but in the midst of a, you know, I, I also think he could have, he
03:29
could have dove off the deep end if he wanted to, I actually kind of was hoping that he would,
03:33
I would, cause I want more insight onto what happened.
03:35
You know, like I, you knew what happened.
03:39
I don't know.
03:41
I mean, Tyree Gill's still here.
03:42
Wait, think about it though.
03:46
All of the, the, the talk before he got traded as to why he didn't want to be here was centered
03:55
around that.
03:56
That's what we were hearing.
03:58
No, no, we were.
03:59
Yeah.
03:59
That was reported that him and Mike McDaniel had had a falling out.
04:02
Or what he didn't want to be somewhere where they didn't respect the coach.
04:07
Well, yeah.
04:08
I mean, he wanted to be so like, obviously the, whatever respect that was there, which
04:13
seemed publicly for a while, like it was strong, uh, obviously was irreparably broken.
04:19
And so I don't know.
04:22
I, and I, that's what I'm fascinated by.
04:24
It was like, why, why is it that this guy got to a point where the dolphins had to get
04:31
him off the team?
04:33
That's what I'm wondering.
04:34
Cause Tyree Gill's still here and they didn't feel that way with Tyree.
04:38
So, so, so somebody just pointed out and I will throw this out there that maybe he had
04:51
a problem with the way they handled the Tyree situation and he thought, how are we going
05:00
to ever turn this around if guys can just go and do whatever?
05:07
I mean, I don't, I don't know.
05:09
Like it, it, it all seemed less, let's just put it this way.
05:13
All this seemed to start happening after the Tyree Hill situation and how they handled that.
05:20
But then all of a sudden off the top rope, uh, Ramsey's like, I'm on out.
05:26
I'm like, I'm out.
05:27
Peace.
05:27
Go ahead, Brittany.
05:28
But I don't think that Jalen Ramsey's like has a very high moral compass.
05:32
Like, I don't think he has a very high moral ground.
05:34
Like we know what he's done in his past career.
05:37
And like, well, that was interesting.
05:39
Cause it was actually the second part.
05:41
There was another part of the interview, which I'll play for you here from the pivot, which
05:44
I actually felt, I actually had more of a problem with this than I did the shot at Mike
05:49
McDaniel.
05:49
Cause like, again, like, I'm not surprised he's going to throw a little wink shade at
05:56
it, but this one to me was, uh, was even more interesting.
05:59
Cause it's like, oh, well that's not great.
06:02
Here was, uh, him on, you know, what, why he wanted to come to Miami.
06:07
When, when I got traded from LA, I was like literally praying to go to Miami, like, and
06:13
it was probably not for all the right reasons.
06:15
Obviously football was has always, and will always be very important for me, but I also
06:22
had other things in the back of my mind too.
06:24
Like, yo, I want, I want to live in a good city.
06:27
I want my kids to enjoy life and, you know, be in the sun, have pool year round.
06:32
And this, I want my family to like coming to visit me and this and that it was other stuff
06:37
that added on to that as well with this decision.
06:40
I'm like, I, I, man, I promise you, I prayed to God completely different than I prayed like
06:47
the last trade.
06:48
I'll tell you what's the opposite from Pittsburgh and Miami when you pray for the wrong reasons.
06:56
Uh, yeah.
06:59
I don't know.
07:00
Tell me why you have a problem with that.
07:01
Cause I don't really see a problem with what he said.
07:03
I don't see.
07:03
I don't have a prop.
07:04
I don't have a problem with it, but I do have a problem with, look, if all the things you
07:12
say are true, then you're more inclined to make things work, right?
07:19
But for him to all of a sudden end up in Pittsburgh and the reasons why he's in Pittsburgh have
07:24
nothing to do with the reasons why he was in Miami, right?
07:27
It's just, you're, you're just, you're just commenting so that you can make your decisions
07:36
fit.
07:36
And, and, and so like, once you say why you wanted to be in Miami, you can't then just
07:45
flip the script a couple of years later and say, well, that's why I was cool.
07:51
We're going to Pittsburgh because I wanted something totally different.
07:55
Like you, you just, you're, you're the one that's confusing like the situation.
08:00
Nobody else.
08:01
Yeah.
08:02
But I think the idea that like, even if you wanted to be in Miami, just cause of the glamor
08:05
of Miami and you feel like you're motivated by the wrong reason.
08:09
I don't feel like he's alone in that.
08:10
I do feel like there's plenty of people who have used this place.
08:13
Yeah.
08:13
It's intriguing.
08:13
Like you think of the no tax.
08:16
Yeah.
08:16
Like I'll stop.
08:17
You think of the sun.
08:18
You think of all the things.
08:19
Yes.
08:20
I fully 100% get that.
08:23
Tyree kill basically said that when he came to Miami, that part of the, a lot of the reason
08:26
why he wanted to come here was because of the tax.
08:29
Yeah.
08:29
The taxes.
08:31
So just look outside.
08:32
Yeah.
08:33
Plenty of people are coming out.
08:34
Like he, it wasn't like he was coming from Seattle.
08:37
He was coming from LA.
08:39
Right.
08:39
So I, I, I feel like he's just saying, like, I agree with his narrative.
08:45
Like he's just saying things because he wants it now to fit his narrative that he's in Pittsburgh.
08:49
Right.
08:50
He's trying to justify being in Pittsburgh now.
08:53
Um, when the last two plays he was in was like beautiful.
08:57
Yeah.
08:58
Well, like the last, I think when, if you're really praying to God and he's like, if you
09:02
want a place with no distractions and no Ashtron, boy, do I have the city for you?
09:11
Jalen.
09:12
He can go three hours West.
09:13
Jalen, we're sending you to Pittsburgh.
09:20
You got to play Jesus music.
09:22
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, Ashtron.
09:30
We're going to replace with steel workers.
09:32
Oh, my, Ashtron, you listened to us last time.
09:36
Welcome to the snow.
09:38
Oh, man, nothing but snow and smog here and not just a bunch of thorns.
09:48
You left the ocean for Lake Erie that freezes in the winter.
09:58
Such angelic voices.
10:00
You guys are great.
10:04
Wait, that's all it took to get you on the screen?
10:08
You know, I heard the holy music, so I had to come on.
10:13
But you know what?
10:14
I never thought about that.
10:18
Right?
10:19
I never thought because I was in Cleveland, then I went to Baltimore, then I went to Carolina,
10:25
and I lived in an off season in Florida.
10:28
So when Minnesota called, I'm like, I'm good.
10:31
Chance to play.
10:33
Right?
10:33
I never thought about it because I had already played in Michigan, Cleveland.
10:38
Right?
10:39
So, like, it was just about playing.
10:43
Well, I think that's the thing.
10:44
It's like, if anything, Tobin, you should be happy that he's gone.
10:46
You should be happy about what he said because his driving factor was never football.
10:50
Well, I think it's not that I'm happy that he's gone, Brittany.
10:54
I guess it's just discouraging.
10:55
Like, when he says the Mike McDaniel stuff, it's like, yeah, I kind of knew it.
10:58
Like, we knew.
10:59
And I know he's going to have pot shots along the way.
11:01
That's how it is.
11:02
Jimmy Butler is going to have the same way with the heat.
11:05
But I'm just like, oh, man.
11:06
That's why you wanted to come to Miami probably for Ashton.
11:09
Like, that's.
11:10
Well, yeah.
11:10
I mean, but it's Jalen Ramsey.
11:12
Like, what did you think he was coming here?
11:14
Because.
11:14
I actually thought Jalen Ramsey was coming here.
11:16
I mean, like, he did come off of a Super Bowl from the Rams.
11:18
I was hoping there was going to be some focus on football.
11:21
But I understand.
11:22
It's a powerful beast down here to distract.
11:26
By the way, I have a tweet here from Colton Pouncey.
11:31
Who covers the Lions for the Athletic.
11:33
He tweets.
11:35
That was the most lopsided joint practice I've ever seen.
11:39
Lions dominated both sides.
11:42
To which Barry Jackson comment tweets.
11:45
Discouraging.
11:46
Yeah.
11:48
That's not great.
11:51
I mean.
11:52
As.
11:53
That's.
11:54
You need.
11:55
You need to.
11:56
And so today.
11:57
When they have meetings before practice tomorrow.
12:00
That's going to be addressed.
12:02
Simple as that.
12:03
Mike.
12:03
Who also covers the Lions goes.
12:06
Either the Dolphins are really bad.
12:07
Or the Lions are just a juggernaut.
12:09
Not a great day for Miami.
12:13
Barry Jackson then goes.
12:15
Multiple Lions beat reporters were mortified by Miami.
12:18
Sigh.
12:20
Not in a good way.
12:22
Not in a good way, dude.
12:23
I think the sigh means no.
12:27
But like I said.
12:30
Until you actually have to deal with it.
12:33
You won't know how to handle it.
12:35
And I.
12:36
I'm willing to bet.
12:38
That in these meetings later.
12:41
Right.
12:42
They are all going to be challenged.
12:44
They're all going to be called soft.
12:47
And they're all going to be asked to respond.
12:51
And that's what.
12:52
That's what this is for.
12:53
This is the exact reason why you practice against Detroit.
12:58
Keep in mind.
12:59
Detroit been playing this way for three years.
13:02
You've been playing this way for a week and a half.
13:05
So.
13:07
Like.
13:07
Yeah.
13:08
It's going to look a little crazy.
13:09
But I'm not discouraged.
13:11
What is more important to me is.
13:14
Let's watch these tweets tomorrow.
13:18
And see if these coaches get after these players and say.
13:21
We going out like this.
13:23
You going out like this.
13:26
The mantra is you've been soft for the last three years.
13:29
You finally play a team that has some stones.
13:32
And you curl up and cry in the corner.
13:34
Let's go.
13:36
And see how the guys respond.
13:38
This is what this is for.
13:41
Nolan Bianchi.
13:42
Who covers the lines for the Detroit News says.
13:45
Jamison Williams.
13:47
Lions receiver.
13:48
And Ifatu Malafonwu.
13:50
Just got into a post-practice dust-up.
13:54
Too late.
13:55
Too late for that.
13:56
Fight during the game.
13:59
Don't go meet somebody after the locker room.
14:01
After you know already got your ass kicked.
14:03
Too late.
14:05
That's reality of it.
14:08
Like.
14:08
There's nothing.
14:09
But you have a problem with somebody.
14:10
Who want to fight after the game.
14:12
Tua is speaking to the media.
14:16
He was asked.
14:18
It was from Travis Wingfield's Twitter.
14:19
Tua's asked.
14:20
How do you move on from a tough practice?
14:22
He said.
14:22
Quote.
14:23
You don't.
14:24
You face it head on.
14:25
Yeah.
14:27
Like.
14:27
You show all that film.
14:29
Show all that film.
14:30
Hey.
14:31
What part of this is us being tougher?
14:35
Put it on the players.
14:36
Listen.
14:38
They've all.
14:39
Listen.
14:40
Contrary to popular belief.
14:41
All these damn football players on the Miami Dolphins have played physical football before.
14:46
Stop acting as if this is the first introduction they've had to it.
14:51
Now maybe they've gotten a little careless.
14:53
Because of the style of football they've played the last couple of years.
14:58
So challenge them.
15:00
Challenge them to be more physical and to fight like hell.
15:05
And to compete like hell.
15:07
Because guess what?
15:08
When Dan Campbell first got to Detroit.
15:14
The only thing he talked about is how they were going to compete.
15:19
Right?
15:20
So yes.
15:22
You got beat up.
15:24
You got bruised.
15:26
This is no different than a football game.
15:28
I've seen teams get dominated in the first half.
15:30
And then go in at halftime.
15:32
Lick their wounds.
15:33
And come out.
15:33
And it's a different game.
15:35
You got time to respond.
15:36
This is what this is for.
15:39
If you want to be a physical team.
15:42
Then there's no greater test than playing one of the most physical teams in the league.
15:47
You go out there.
15:49
And you respond.
15:50
So it'll be interesting what these meetings will be like tonight.
15:54
As they watch this film getting pushed around as grown ass men.
16:00
And then the coaches will challenge them.
16:03
Call them out.
16:04
Right?
16:04
And say, what is your response?
16:08
And that'll be an indication.
16:09
One ass, cheek, and three toes.
16:11
I will beat your ass.
16:12
That's it.
16:13
Right?
16:14
That's it.
16:15
But here's the deal.
16:19
You'll know after tomorrow's practice whether this team will be tough or not.
16:23
Because you'll hear one thing.
16:25
And one thing only from Mike McDain.
16:27
We got pushed around the first day.
16:28
I like the way our guys responded on day two.
16:31
That's it.
16:32
This is what this is for.
16:35
So, good.
16:37
I'm glad that everybody's looking at him like, oh, yeah.
16:41
It's one thing to talk about being tough.
16:44
It's another thing to be tough after you got punched in the mouth.
16:47
So we'll see.
16:49
Don't lose.
16:50
It's another thing to be tough.
16:51
It's another thing to be tough.
16:51
It's another thing to be tough.
16:52
It's another thing to be tough.
16:52
It's another thing to be tough.
16:53
It's another thing to be tough.
16:53
It's another thing to be tough.
16:54
It's another thing to be tough.
16:55
It's another thing to be tough.
16:55
It's another thing to be tough.
16:56
It's another thing to be tough.
16:56
It's another thing to be tough.
16:57
It's another thing to be tough.
16:57
It's another thing to be tough.
16:58
It's another thing to be tough.
16:59
It's another thing to be tough.
17:00
It's another thing to be tough.
17:01
It's another thing to be tough.
17:02
It's another thing to be tough.
17:03
It's another thing to be tough.
17:04
It's another thing to be tough.
