00:00is you said that you got some press and it was good reporting that Christian Gonzalez had not
00:06had a setback in his soft tissue injury. Right. Okay. And so that's interesting because he had
00:14missed so much time and there was a belief that obviously something must have happened to, you
00:20know, delay the process of coming back. Okay. So he said there's reports from people who haven't
00:26played the game, which we all thought was interesting because how could anyone that
00:29doesn't play football have any experience with physical pain or, or any kind of injury? I mean,
00:36all we do is, you know, lay prone, but, but was he referring to you when he said that?
00:42I actually didn't hear it. Oh, okay. But I mean, if he was, that's fine. Like I don't,
00:48well, it's just a lame. It doesn't bother me though. No, no. All I reported, I reported that
00:55there was not a setback and that he was injured at the end of July and it's gone slower than they
01:01thought it would. And they thought he'd be ready for week one and he wasn't. And there's obviously
01:08some timeline things here that you can look at that are obvious. That's say, not only has it
01:14gone slower than you thought it would in July. I mean, he's missed three games now. So if he were
01:21to miss one more game, which I think he'll probably play on Sunday, but if he were to miss one more
01:25game, then you would have just put them on injured reserve because that's four games out, you saved
01:32the roster spot and that's not a decision you're making in July. That's a decision you're making
01:36in September. So it's not just behind schedule for July. Now you're behind schedule for September
01:42as well. So that was all I said. And then, um, I think I would never like, I, I would never question
01:52a football player's toughness, um, a professional football player's toughness. Um, all I said was
01:58that he was behind schedule and I think it got conflated into being other things, which like, again,
02:05like I said, I said, I don't think there's ill will between he and the team. Do I, is there
02:11frustration? Yes. Everyone's frustrated, but it got like turned into like, like he doesn't want to
02:18play. And that was the other part of it was all I did when I explained like the contract thing was
02:25this is a natural part of the NFL that these guys have to protect themselves. And somehow someone
02:31turned that into, he doesn't want to play, which I, I never said, or never would say.
