00:0095.7 The Game. Breaking News.
00:05This is not Niners related, but it is the biggest story of the NFL offseason.
00:10The Cowboys are trading all-pro Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers,
00:14and they agreed to a four-year, $188 million deal, including $136 million guaranteed.
00:22Wow!
00:23That's $47 million per year.
00:26Wow!
00:27Kapow!
00:27Is that a lot?
00:28That sounds like a lot.
00:31Man.
00:31Oh, my goodness.
00:32That's almost Jimmy Butler money.
00:34Somebody get Goo on the phone.
00:35Where is Guru?
00:37What a moronic thing to do!
00:39Which, who, who, who, who?
00:40The Cowboys!
00:43What are you doing?
00:45Let's not be so, hey, let's wait to see what they get.
00:48No, no, I don't care what they got.
00:49What do you mean?
00:50They just traded a young superstar defensive player when they suck on defense
00:56and have the highest paid player in the league who's their mediocre, oft-injured quarterback.
01:02They have no running game.
01:04They have no defense.
01:05That should please you.
01:06What should worry you is now he's on the Packers.
01:09Green Bay!
01:10What do they do?
01:11Oh, my God.
01:13It's so funny because he's such a stubborn fool.
01:16Guru was saying, oh, now they say they're going to trade him.
01:19So they're not trading him.
01:20It was just a negotiating tactic is what we all thought.
01:24And then now, boom, I think Rapsheet, Ian Rappaport had it first.
01:29Maybe Tom Pellicero.
01:30I've seen everyone now weighing in with it.
01:33And, yeah, I don't know yet what the compensation package was,
01:37but you'd have to imagine it's at least three first-round picks.
01:41It's massive.
01:41Yeah, and that's all they've said.
01:43Two firsts.
01:43Yeah, I mean.
01:44Massive package, TBD.
01:46Exactly.
01:47And so, I mean, if you're Dallas and you don't want to pay him
01:50and you've made that decision, which I think is the wrong decision,
01:53you might as well trade him and get something for him
01:55if this is the direction you're looking to go.
01:58I've got to believe if you're a Cowboys fan, you are not happy.
02:04How can you be?
02:05Well, maybe you can.
02:08There's a possibility you could be happy in six months.
02:11Look at, like, the Boston Giants trade.
02:13Apparently Boston was not happy about the Devers trade.
02:16So, I mean, if that was –
02:18Well, Giants getting happier by the day, but still.
02:20Yeah, I know.
02:21If the Cowboys are good, and let's see what they get.
02:26But I've got to believe it's going to be a lot.
02:28People are comparing it to the Herschel Walker deal.
02:33I mean, the Cowboys.
02:33And that's the only perspective where I would look at and go,
02:38you know, three years from now, maybe what I just said will be wrong.
02:43Like, the Cowboys do have a lot of needs.
02:46And so, if they just – if they turn this into some unbelievable haul
02:51over the next three years, that's great.
02:53But in general, in sports, your homegrown stars need to be kept.
03:01Like, that's –
03:01It's hard to argue with.
03:02Yeah, the mark to me of a healthy organization versus a not healthy –
03:09you know, let's talk about, for instance, teams in the baseball
03:12like the Marlins and A's who just keep bringing up good players
03:16and then as soon as they're ready to get paid, they send them elsewhere.
03:19To me, that's the mark of an unhealthy organization.
03:21The opposite is when you draft correctly and have a good player,
03:25you're able to keep them.
03:26And so, that's stunning to me that they let this get personal
03:29and now let them out the door.
03:31So, Dallas has now seen two 26-year-olds traded,
03:36Micah Parsons and Luka Doncic, both.
03:39Thank you, Adam Schefter, for that.
03:41A couple of 26-year-olds both traded this calendar year from Dallas.
03:46So, tough time to be a Dallas sports fan when two of your biggest stars
03:50are on the move.
03:53Interesting.
03:54Waiting on that – waiting on that package, man.
03:57I'm scrolling right now.
03:59Oh, yeah.
03:59I'm waiting on that package.
04:00Holy smokes.
04:02I mean, maybe the Green Bay side of it would come first.
04:04But when you think about – even if you want to think about how Dallas
04:08could win this trade, you'd be looking at, what, three firsts
04:12and three second-round picks or something on that order.
04:16That sort of a package.
04:17And as Stiney famously said, that's a damn good package.
04:21That wouldn't be a bad one at all.
04:23Dude, he got quarterback money.
04:26Yeah.
04:26Highest non-quarterback ever.
04:29You're only five million short of Brock.
04:32Huh.
04:33Yeah.
04:33The agent did the darn thing.
04:36That's an agent who gave good advice.
04:38Right.
04:39As opposed to some of the other ones that we've been discussing.
04:42Do you mind if I ask you guys to weigh in on the Ostapenko-Townsend kerfuffle?
04:50Absolutely.
04:51I was glad you asked me that.
04:53Okay.
04:53Because I don't know if you saw it, Mark, but U.S. Open match, Townsend beats Ostapenko
04:58and they do the quick handshake and now they're jawing at each other and they go around the
05:02net and they're still jawing.
05:04And Ostapenko, in this case, for me, was out of pocket.
05:08There was a point in the match where Townsend hit the ball off the net, the top of the net,
05:12and it trickled over.
05:14And the unwritten rule is you hold up your racket and apologize.
05:18You give like a little, you know, like, yeah.
05:20Townsend did not apologize when that happened.
05:22Which, unwritten rules, I mean, there's so many of these in so many sports, but Ostapenko
05:27was mad and she went on to berate Townsend, calling her things like, uneducated, Townsend
05:34happens to be African-American.
05:36Ostapenko saying, you're uneducated, you're rude, and Townsend held her ground and incited
05:41the crowd behind her, the hometown crowd, and Ostapenko even said like, oh, you can do that
05:46here, wait till I catch you outside the United States.
05:49In a match.
05:51Perhaps.
05:52Or not.
05:53Yeah, who knows.
05:53But anyway, I thought that Ostapenko was out of line.
05:57Townsend didn't do anything to diffuse it.
06:01She kind of ramped up the crowd, too.
06:03I thought it was a great moment for tennis.
06:04Well, apparently Ostapenko's not a great sport.
06:08Right.
06:09Yeah.
06:10I wonder how you think that.
06:11Neither is tennis.
06:12But anyway.
06:13Oh.
06:14I'm kidding.
06:15It was an opportunity.
06:16Yeah, I went for it.
06:17So, Dibs, you know, here's the other thing.
06:20When people say, it's not even really an apology.
06:23All you got to do is hold your racket up.
06:24Yeah, it's kind of like.
06:25That's all you got to do.
06:26It's kind of like when somebody lets you go first into the parking lot.
06:30Yeah, you give them a wave.
06:31You give them a wave.
06:32Exactly.
06:32Like, thanks for letting me in.
06:34See, I.
06:34Totally unnecessary, though.
06:35And it's not.
06:36Yes.
06:36It's almost like infuriating when somebody does that.
06:39Yes, I know you got lucky.
06:41It's like when you watch a baseball game and the guy has like a check swing, broken bat,
06:47base hit, you don't apologize to the pitcher who sawed you off.
06:50Oh, I'm with you.
06:51You take first base and you try to steal second.
06:53But even if you want it, if you want the wave when you get let into the parking lot
06:57and you don't get it, like, don't get mad that I feel the same way here.
07:01Like, yeah, sure, give the wave.
07:03But if you don't, this is not worth berating somebody at midcourt after a match.
07:08That's stupid.
07:09Yeah.
07:10My question is this.
07:13Ostapenko is in the wrong.
07:15Next match, if Townsend has a net cord, should she raise a racket?
07:21No, she should give the point up.
07:23I think she should raise her racket.
07:25She should petition the sport to actually not get the point.
07:28You're being silly.
07:30Sort of.
07:30She should not raise her racket, depending on who the opponent is, because as you know,
07:35Stiney, a former high school tennis player, tennis is basically mental.
07:40And if you can get a mental edge, as I did in so many matches where I was overwhelmed physically,
07:46but I would win because my brain game was elite.
07:50And if I know that you want me to wave my racket, I'm not waving my racket.
07:55There are all these little things you can do, subterfuge, to win the match.
08:00So, no, don't raise your racket.
08:01I believe that, and in a very small way, it's just like, okay, I get it.
08:11It's just an unwritten rule.
08:13But, yeah, it's just more erosion of decorum in our society.
08:19Hang on, I'm trying to get Guru to call in.
08:22Well, he's on, he might be on a, well, he texted me.
08:25Are you allowed to use a phone on a train?
08:26You know what's funny?
08:27He just asked me, is the number 888-957-957?
08:32No, he didn't.
08:33Yes, he did.
08:34Look.
08:35Look at how he responded.
08:36Look at how he responded.
08:38I love him.
08:38And I'm like, first of all, who should, don't we all?
08:42He should use the guest line, but yes, that line will, yes, you can use the caller line.
08:48So, I'm trying to get him to call in.
08:50I also like Bill Williamson's tweet.
08:53He just wrote, Dallas should have gotten more.
08:56Is he still working for ESPN?
08:57Don't you notice what he did there?
08:59We don't know what they got.
09:00Right.
09:00And he already is saying they should have gotten more.
09:04In other words, it doesn't matter what the hell you get.
09:06You screwed this up.
09:09Wow.
09:10Wow.
09:10I cannot believe Micah Parsons is a Packer.
09:12And apparently the word is, is this deal has been worked on now for about three or four days.
09:17Yeah, because Micah Parsons has already tweeted out a thank you to Cowboys Nation, which I didn't know that that was a thing.
09:24He grew up in Harrisburg, Stiney.
09:26Yes, he did.
09:26Yeah, and he goes on and on to talk about this is a sad day, but not a bitter one.
09:31And thank you, Cowboy Nation, with gratitude and love, number 11, Micah Parsons.
09:37So, yeah, this trade has been worked on and finally announced and consummated today.
09:43And Micah Parsons is going to be wearing green and gold.
09:46Wow.
09:47Wow, wow, wow, wow.
09:49I like the Packers better than I did this morning.
09:52It's hard not to.
09:54I wasn't really big on them.
09:55I feel like they overachieved last year, but this changes things big time.
10:01Edge rusher, probably one of the four most important positions in the sport.
10:06I thought you were going to say one of the four best at that position in the sport, but you're right.
10:11If you ask a coach, where do you want a great player?
10:15I think the, what's going on, Stiney?
10:16What's up?
10:18Lucas goes, should the 49ers, I'm just mad.
10:21Should the 49ers have been in on Parsons?
10:23I said, what are you asking me for?
10:25Ask these guys, they're going to show.
10:27He was telling you to ask them.
10:28It is after 2 o'clock, Lucas, yeah.
10:30No, they should not have been.
10:33That's too much money.
10:34Matt Schneiderman, Packer beat writer, is saying, according to his sauce, the Packers are trading at least two first-rounders to the Cowboys.
10:42There's no way it stops there.
10:44Well, he said at least.
10:45Lord, that would be crazy.
10:46Schneiderman, at least two first-round picks.
10:49That almost could be just an educated guess that he's definitely going to be.
10:54He's got a source.
10:55He's got a source.
10:56All right.
10:56My source tells me that they're trading something to Dallas.
11:00My sources tell me it's two first-rounders and more.
11:03Yep.
11:04Those are my sources.
11:06That's what Schneiderman said, at least.
11:08Which implies more and more.
11:09Trey Wingo is based, I think, in Dallas, right?
11:12Long-time NFL voice.
11:14Quote, if you had any doubts that Jerry Jones is the worst general manager in the league, you can let them go now.
11:20It's not even a debate.
11:23Wow.
11:23Yeah.
11:25All right.
11:25Jerry Jones needs to not be making these kinds of decisions anymore.
11:29Needs to be a delegation sensation.
11:32Yeah, that's a buck right there.
11:33And that buck is payable, too.
11:35Wait a minute.
11:36Has Guru not called you?
11:37I wanted you to be here when he called.
11:40He hasn't called?
11:41No.
11:41Come on.
11:43Probably in morning.
11:46All right.
11:47That's about it, right?
11:48If you have to go, you can go.
11:49I do have to go.
11:50All right.
11:51I have to get out of a meeting with a boss.
11:53All right.
11:53We're going to go.
11:54On 95.7.
11:55Take care.
11:55Take care.
