00:00it was announced yesterday that they're going to bring a flag football classic to riyadh saudi
00:05arabia relax just for a second and here's what's interesting to me about tom brady's going to play
00:11quarterback so he's like coming out of retirement he's going to play quarterback uh in a flag
00:16football league and some of the guys you see on your screen there saquon barkley's committed to
00:20it's not going to be till march of next year which is riyadh season i think they call that
00:24that is what they call it uh christian mccaffrey's in cd lamb is in gronk is in and these guys are
00:29all going to play and i saw the rules it's like five on five um miles garrett's going to play so
00:35legitimate big name guys and pete carroll sean payton and kyle shanahan are going to be uh coaches for it
00:42i might be doing play-by-play uh you never know uh we'll fly over there and do some play-by-play
00:49here's the thing i'm trying to figure out because obviously saudi arabia they're trying to greenwash
00:54themselves and what they've been known for as a country uh via american or international
00:59sports yep we all know it's what they're doing you have to make uh your own kind of moral decision
01:03if you were of you know if you were a great athlete that they made they approached like they just had
01:10the big fight was in saudi arabia or they sponsored sponsored it it was in vegas but they were the
01:15sponsor they sponsored ufc has fought over there a lot of times uh they paid soccer players a boat
01:20over there every year and of course they're the they're the biggest uh funder of live golf right
01:25they're the money behind it the interesting thing to me is people when the live golf guys decide to
01:31leave the pga tour and join live golf dustin johnson patrick reed bryson de chambeau
01:36sergio phil mickelson more than anyone bub watson etc brux koepka they were castigated as like
01:43enemies of america yep like how dare you take that dirty money not all money is good money
01:49denzel washington says that in highest to lowest the new apple plus movie done by spike lee and i agree
01:54with that 6.1 not a great movie okay but not all money is good money meaning like drug money is not
01:59good money right uh and we all agree on that but it's easy to sit in your chair and go you shouldn't
02:05take their money i would never take their money until they offer you a hundred million dollars right
02:11now the only two guys on the planet i know of that said no to the i mean a billion dollars because
02:16that's what the offer was tiger woods was offered a billion dollars said no and i believe rory
02:22mackerel was offered like half a billion and said no it's easier to say no when you've got a billy in
02:29the bank right so let's just keep that straight but if someone comes and says to you i will give you
02:35whatever however you define this life-changing money it's easy for me to sit here and go don't take the
02:41money if they offered me 10 million dollars to be the play-by-play guy you have to take i would
02:47take it you have to i'm not gonna lie to you you have a family there's a number you don't say no
02:52to you have a family yes now if i had a hundred million in the bank it's easy to stand on my
02:57moral high ground and go i would never take that money how dare you it's dirty money it's blood money
03:03and maybe it is i'm not saying it's not they have a terrible track record when it comes to human rights
03:08let's just leave it to that but what i found interesting in the 24 hours since this announcement
03:14came out where the golfers were attacked on mercilessly day in and day out i've not heard
03:22a single person come out and criticize miles garrett sauce gardner max crosby gronk cd lamb
03:31mccaffrey saquon or tom brady i've not seen a single post i've not seen a single commentary i've not seen
03:39a single letter to the editor i know it's new so maybe that will happen those guys
03:44collectively are all extraordinarily wealthy men you know tom brady's made over 500 million dollars
03:51just from football right and he's got a lot more money coming from fox and all those other ventures
03:56right he's very and max crosby has earned over 100 million dollars and miles garrick's got 150
04:02million and saquon will be at 100 so these are wealthy men money should never be an issue to them
04:08unless they pull an antron walker which happens occasionally yeah but i'm trying to figure out
04:13why were the golfers attacked for taking paydays that they could never earn on the pga golf tour
04:20but the nfl players who have already gotten all that money are not being attacked for essentially
04:27getting in bed with the devil
04:29getting in bed with the devil
