00:00Here's what I would say about the Hall of Fame.

00:02I would say Belichick by far is the most responsible for the cheating scandals.

00:06I don't remember Bill coming around to us saying, hey, I'm going to spy on this team.

00:11I just want you guys to know, you know, don't say anything to anybody if they ask you.

00:15But we're going to be doing some stuff behind the scenes that you're that might get questioned later on.

00:20So just make sure when they question your Super Bowls later, you just tell them that you had no knowledge of the cheating scandal.

00:27So that's that's what I would say about Tom Brady's involvement in that.

00:31And also the cheating was they knew the rules, right?

00:35I would check knew the rules and he still cheated anyway.

00:38Tom Brady, he cheated, but there was no rule in the rule book that said you couldn't take air out of the football.

00:44Do you guys know that? I don't know if you guys know that, but that is that is that is the case.

00:48Fitzy, just so you know, Robert Kraft did not bring in Bill Parcells.

00:52He did not hire Bill Parcells and he's probably the main guy that is responsible for Parcells leaving.

00:59And that's it was a big deal.

01:00Why people wondered if Bill Parcells was going to come back for the Hall of Fame induction was was whether or not, you know,

01:06that they could mend fences because it really I don't think Parcells ever wanted to leave here.

01:10So so that's so that's that I don't know if if the coach has had more success than Bill when it comes to championships,

01:20but also more negative kind of stories that he's brought upon himself.

01:27And so to say that he deserves to go into the Hall of Fame first ballot when you consider all of those scandals that he's been a part of.

01:34I don't I don't agree with. I don't. And so I just wanted to clear up some things.

01:39You know, we can talk this out. We can flush this out a little bit more because I think y'all are both crazy.

01:45So you I just want to. So you do not believe Bill Belichick is a first ballot.

01:49I do not. Are you out of your mind? Is he a Hall of Famer?

01:51Yeah, of course. Yeah. So at some point in the next, just not that honor of not a first ballot Hall of Famer.

01:57Not not with the he was he was he convicted of cheating? He was. He was. And did he after that?

02:03Did he decide to cheat again? But everyone else did. I mean, everyone else, everyone else did.

02:06He was just told to stop doing it and chose not to because he was.

02:10And you may know this about him better because you played for him. I just talked about him.

02:14He was very brazen in doing it and also is a defiant human being.
